Vehicle Description
Classic Car Addict would like to introduce this distinctive all
metal and totally custom 1948 Chevrolet Fleetline Custom Coupe that
gives a super-sleek first impression from every angle! As you dig
deeper, you're going to love how the total package mixes vintage
styling with proper small block power, TH350 transmission, custom
interior, and so much more.
The sweeping all metal fenders and sleek rounded silhouette of this
Chevys sheet metal were made for this custom application of blue.
It has a modern shine that highlights the vintage curves. We
especially like the hand painted pinstripe (purple, white, and
light blue) that really draw your eye to the sharply pointed
grille. To add; you'll love the details with the expertly shaved
trim (including door handles,) frenched taillights, headlights, and
license plate; power windows, sport mirrors, custom parking lights,
custom one-off rockers, custom gas filler, and US Wheel Deuce
chrome painted rims. LED Dakota Digital alphanumeric gear shift
indicator is another nice touch! And of course, before they did any
of the other custom work, they chopped 3 inches out of the roof
line that gives the ideal street machine profile.
The interior goes for a tasteful gray tweed and vinyl, but the blue
carries onto the dash and the custom door panels just so you know
this is a very uniform build. Part of this custom transformation
was about making this classic quite a bit more comfortable. That's
why you have nice bolstering on the front bucket seats, and they
individually adjust to your ideal setting. The back has a well-done
bench and offers adult-sized legroom. Modern features like the
Panasonic cockpit AM/FM/Cassette stereo, CB radio (not working),
with cold air conditioning that will keep everyone happy and
comfortable. Of course, we all know the driver is the "Legend";
that's why you have upgrades like the custom steering wheel with
Chevys Heartbeat logo, a tilt column, and a crisp set of upgraded
VDO gauges.
The inner walls of the engine bay have a sleek and clean look that
funnels your attention to the polished heart in the middle. More
than just a great look, this is Chevy's hardy 350 cubic-inch V8.
Its upgraded engine modifications are a bored .030 over forged
pistons, Edelbrock Weber performer cam, intake and carburetor and a
dual exhaust with a nice low rumble. This custom build was meant
for the road with the front suspension upgraded to a Mustang II IFS
and rear has a Nova with stock springs. There's an aluminum
radiator to help keep this motor running cool, and the 3-speed
automatic transmission holds all the power. Plus, there's power
steering, new Baer brakes master cylinder, and new Coker BFGoodrich
Silvertown Radial T/A's P215/70R15's.
This is a true custom build that fits everything you could ever
want. We have a full book of receipts and documents for this
Fleetline. Don't let this complete package drive away, call Classic
