You stopped to look at this 1950 Chevrolet Styleline Deluxe for the
exact same reason why we fell in love with it, too. It has a great
period-correct appearance inside & out that makes for an impressive
cruiser at an obtainable price.
This sedan makes a great first impression. The Saddle Brown has
enough metallic element to really draw attention to this two-door.
This is the kind of bright presentation these classics have always
had when you pictured them in your mind. And the Sierra Beige
completes this period-correct two tone. Rivaling the paint for
shine is the brightwork. It surrounds every piece of glass,
outlines the rear fender, and gives this a 10,000-watt smile. And
the sweeping side trim looks great while outlining how straight the
panels are. When all of this is so complete and bright, you realize
that you're looking at a labor of love. In fact, this was fully
restored in 2003 and there's plenty of receipts documenting the
full investment $$$$ in keeping this looking great. You'll enjoy
going over the details - from the correct long hood ornament, to
the sun visor, to the whitewall tires - this is one impressive
total package.
Inside it's been restored to look like a time capsule. The option
lists were a lot shorter in 1952, which gives this car an
uncluttered appearance of a simpler time. And even the AM radio is
still cranking out tunes on this well-kept classic. The steering
column is uncomplicated with a big wheel to help make turning a
breeze. Despite this coupe's simplicity, the gauge cluster is quite
informative. It has info for the fuel, water temperature, oil
pressure, and voltage that are all next to the Art Deco
speedometer. Because this is a true 1940s car, there are the
traditional bright accents on places like the doors, wheel, and the
dashboard. It's joined by the a similar two-tone to the exterior
interweaves so nicely on the dash, door panels, and seats. And
speaking of the seats, two rows of benches feel like cushy cloth
couches.
Chevy's bulletproof inline-six was the backbone of the company for
decades. Famous for its durability and smoothness, you'll find that
this is an easy car to love. This version has a little extra flair
with the polished head cover, and beneath is the added displacement
of the 235 cubic-inch unit. But the rest is pure vintage - from the
six-volt battery, to the oil bath air cleaner. It starts easily
with a great six-cylinder grumble from the single tailpipe, and
you'll love the control that the three-speed manual transmission
gives you over this classic power plant.
The sale come complete with the owner's manual, build receipts, and
maintenance records. This is the cool cruiser that's ready to grab
attention, so call today!
