For Sale: 1948 Chevrolet Fleetmaster in Concord, North Carolina

Vehicle Description

Here's a vehicle that looks like it came straight out of an old-school gangster movie. This 1948 Chevrolet Fleetmaster has all the right curves in all the right places. The shiny molding, hubcaps, and chrome bumpers come to life when paired with the Mayland Black paint job. The body lines and gaps are consistent, and the doors and windows open properly. There's no other way to say it: this is a pure cruising, car show queen. And let's not forget its size-you can easily fit a family of six in this car with plenty of shoulder and elbow room for everyone.

The interior is very clean, with tan seats and door panels accented by elegant brown trim on the upper door panels and across the dashboard. The dashboard and steering wheel appear mostly original, and although it's a stick-shift, this Chevy still uses a column-mounted shifter. The radio and gauges look original and remain in good shape, as do the carpet and headliner. Needless to say, this is a very nice, original-looking interior from a vehicle that was built in the late 1940s.

The engine bay of this Fleetmaster is stock-configured. Everything seems to be in place and where it belongs. Power comes from a 216-cubic-inch Inline-6 with a single-barrel carburetor, paired with a 3-speed manual transmission. The rear end is a standard GM unit with leaf springs, while the front suspension features coil springs, shocks, and a sway bar. This big Chevy rides on 16-inch wheels with 6.00-16 tires, with a matching spare in the back.

•216 Cubic-Inch Inline-6

•3-Speed Manual Transmission With Column Shifting

•Solid Body, Black Mayland Paint
