History Your Favorite 49-52 Chevrolet

Fabian Valdez's at Bonneville 2012.

 

A few more. I love this car. It is driven as they should be!

 

My first car was a '51 Fleetline. I'd give just about anything these days for a coupe though. Great thread, guys!

 

Where are all the Styline Deluxe Sedans????? Centurion9

 

Haven't thrown many photos up lately but here is some from my photo shoot with Trent Sherrill

 

Just traded my Model A for this one a couple weeks ago. I'm hooked on these cars!

 

My 50. It ain't done but it sure is fun-


Dropped in a 55/235 last summer


someday I'll have rolls and pleats-

If I can get off my ass…haha

 

Heres an updated pic of mine that was shown in post #5.

 

Just went through all the posts and Man!!! there were some mighty FINE Chevy's, thanks for sharing

 

Here's the car that does it for me. Maybe it's because I'm from Salinas as well and I'm a little biased...

 

grapevine sadsack

 

this is a 53 or 54...

 

. Very nice!

 

Maybe you should re read the title of this thread and look for one that says Your Favorite 53-54 Chevrolet .....

 

Nice car parked at one of my favorite places on Earth with my buddy, Spike's, band advertised on the sign! Great trade!

 

Here's Walt Leeman's Chevy, he's out of Delta, ColoRODO and his Chevy is F-O-R-D powered...!!!

^^^^Really wanted to see them at Don's but had prior engagements that night. Hoping to catch them at VLV this year!^^^^

 

How did I miss this thread??

I agree, my favourite too.

 

Anyone know what the trim is on the fender on this one? Is it just another piece of 49/50 door molding?

I've been thinking I need a little stainless molding on the side of my car.

 

Looks like a 49/50 original just moved down to wheel opening instead of by the head light

Looks to me like the car is a 51/52 and that is the stock chrome trim on the side. I had to shorten mine when I put the 52/54 Ford/Merc fender arches on it.




The door piece is at the stock height and the fender piece is shortened about 1 foot. I found out later that a 49 Pontiac fender piece is just the right length.

Thanks for the info. I thought that the 51 and 52 had the same side trim but a after a little searching it looks like they did not. The picture has the 52 trim on it.

 

What front grill is that?

 

'48 Cadillac...
