History Info to the 1950 Chevrolet of Hector Arevalo "Renegades C.C."

Something about the rear window doesn't look right. In the old photos it is one piece glass and the upper corners are rounded. It also looks like the roof is now a little taller (along with different back window). The trim around the windshield is different too.

 

Yes in the old pics the rear glass is in one piece and in the years after the glass is split in three piece.If you saw the structure around the glass has been changed at a later time.the car has been restored mounted and dismounted a lot of times and sure is changed a little.

 

I have measured the top three years ago and respect to the original top is chopped four inches....all is possible but consequently at my search back through the years it is always result the car correct....

 

FAN-tastic!

I'm glad your persistence has finally paid off, Ironpumpkin!
Sorry about your personal issues. Here's hoping that things will improve, and that you will be able to finish the car.
It is a beauty, and must be much admired in Italy!

 

Thanks 'Mo for your words and your thoughts,sure in the future things will improve!!!
In Italy the Custom Culture"Period Correct"isn't yet understood by all.
For some years now are changing!!All is difficult and expensive but the passion....

ironpumpkin: Interesting car and story on your Chevy but I'm asking about the '60 Impala on the cover of Customs Illistrated. It has N.Y. plates and I remember a red '60 Impala with the same rumble seat in Garden City, N.Y. around 1961-62. Could you check that article to see if it's the same car.... Thanks.

 

Of course myold88......a moment!!

 

Is it the car that have write you????

 

Hector passed away Saturday

 

It’s a shame that David never got to connect with Hector before he died. I think it would have been a great day for both parties. RIP Hector, and all the best to David.
