sound deadenerHarley Earl and company attended to Chevrolet's first
postwar restyle using the company's prewar shells until 1949 when
dramatic change was to be made with some of Chevy's best looking
cars ever made to date, and which were to be precision built as
well. By 1950-52, the introduction of the Deluxe Styleline series
now included its top-of-the-line Bel Air. Indeed there's no better
example of GM's styling and engineering prowess in the fifties than
these Chevrolet's.One of the USA's most recognized classic cars
ever, the top-of-the-line Bel Air series, was introduced as a stand
alone model for the 1953 model year, replacing the previous DeLuxe
Styleline series. It was to become the most desirable Chevrolet
model of the 1950's, offering a balance of style and luxury
appointments unavailable in the base 150 amp; 210 series and
offered in a wide range of body styles, including a convertible,
Sport Coupe hardtop, two- and four-door sedans and four-door
station wagons.This particular 1952 Chevrolet 2 Door Deluxe Hardtop
example was recently frame off restored and customized with no
expense spared with only some 2,000 miles on the build since its
restoration. This is a phenomenally well built custom which still
holds true to its roots and which obviously sounds and drives
absolutely magnificently - see the video on our You Tube Page on
our website for visuals.In summary this must be one of the finest
custom examples anywhere of a fully operational and turn-key
customized 1952 Chevrolet Deluxe 2 Door Hardtop with upgraded
modern components yet which still has a classic original look as
well as all the modern day custom upgrades and technical advances -
a wonderful example of America's favorite 1950's classic car and a
wonderful addition to any custom hot rod enthusiasts collection!
