    New to the HAMB. Just came across this beauty and have no earthly idea as to where I can locate good parts for it.

    What parts are you looking for specifically? If you want a catalog, Chevs of the 40's would be a good place to start. eBay for used stuff. Just keep in mind, a lot of pieces for this car are not reproduced, unlike say a Camaro or Mustang.

    Also, the model name of your car is a Styleline Special (from the looks of it, hard to tell with so much trim missing) although it could be a Styleline Deluxe with the upper door moldings shaved off and filled in. Custom Deluxe/Deluxe Custom is not a model name used in 1952, unless it's a Canada-only thing.
     

  4. 1952 coupe (business coupe if the rear 1/4 windows are "fixed"-non moving) pretty scarce find. National Chevy assoc, in St Paul Minnesota has all that stainless (651 778 9522) Its used, but straightened & polished like new. The only hard to find pieces are the rear window belt molding. All the interior, minus rear quarter garnish mldg, is the same as two door sedans, same with grille, sheet metal, mechanical, etc. And, you can try french lake auto, Annandale Mn (320 274 8497)
