    A pic of my 1949 Chevrolet Fleetline , i jad one in high school ( 1967) and loved it . Traded in in for a new 1967 SS Chevelle . Loved the Chevelle also but always loved the fleetline . Found this one a few years ago on the east coast and bought it . Just last week put some new torque thrusts on it with BF Goodrich radials . ( It had solid 18-20s with low profile when i bought it ) Love the new look. Caddy 60-40 interiopr, crate motor , mustang 2 and rack and pinion steering ,olds 279409550_762439535124902_7711401649104673151_n.jpg windshield , vintage air and heat ...........pretty slick ???

    Nice ride & what J.A. Miller said. Always loved the "beetle back" style of those cars. That's what we called them when I was a kid.

    You have spent your money very well!
    Those were always one of my favorite body styles from that time period.
    What a shame, that modern day automotive designers, seem to forget what " style " truly is!

    Great score. That’s a nice car. I’ve always wanted one but I never found “the one”. Looks like you sure did!
