For Sale: 1948 Chevrolet Stylemaster in Jacksonville, Florida

Vehicle Description

1948 Chevrolet Stylemaster Business Coupe Hot Rod Project - Estate Vehicle - V8/Automatic.  

Inherited from my stepfather's estate. He was a lifelong hot rod enthusiast who spent more than 20 years working on this build before his passing.

The car is a solid foundation for someone looking to complete a classic Chevrolet street rod. Significant body, mechanical, and fabrication work has already been completed, and the vehicle has been stored indoors.

This is not a running or driving vehicle and will require completion before returning to the road. The car is being sold exactly as found from the estate.

Vehicle Highlights

  • Clean title
  • 1948 Chevrolet Stylemaster Business Coupe
  • Small-block Chevrolet V8 installed
  • Automatic transmission installed
  • Aluminum radiator with upgraded fan assembly

Condition

The vehicle was being built as a hot rod project rather than a factory-original restoration. Bodywork and primer have been completed on much of the vehicle, and the body appears substantially complete. Some floor repairs have been performed and various interior, trim, wiring, and assembly work remain unfinished.

The rear window is currently missing. Trim and grille components are not completely installed but many pieces accompany the car.

The vehicle has not been driven in approximately 5 to 10 years and is being sold as a non-running project. Mechanical condition is unknown and buyers should assume additional restoration and assembly work will be required.

Included Parts

Included with the sale are various project parts collected by the builder over the course of the project, including:

  • Chevrolet grille and trim components
  • Original steering wheel
  • Weatherstripping and miscellaneous restoration materials
  • Additional chrome pieces
  • Mufflers and assorted parts stored with the vehicle

History

This Business Coupe was part of my stepfather's personal hot rod project for more than two decades. Unfortunately, the project was never completed, and we would like to see it go to someone who can carry the build across the finish line.

Terms

Sold as-is.

Buyer responsible for transportation.

Inspections are welcomed and encouraged.
