1950 Ford Wagon

Pas woody mais jolie Surf Wagon '53 Chevy

 


 

First popularized in the early 1940s, fastback coupes became all the rage when automobile production resumed after WWII. As a sub-series of the Fleetmaster full-size line, the Fleetline re-debuted in 1946 as both a very sleek two-door fastback Aero Sedan and a four-door sedan Sportmaster. By 1948, the car had undergone very few changes, most notably a center support pillar in the grille. 1948 proved to be the single highest production year of Fleetline cars, with some 276,078 produced, of which 211,861 were Aero Sedans. This was 27% of total Chevrolet production in 1948! Unique to the Aero Sedan was the optional dealer-installed "Country Club" wood trim. Manufactured by Engineered Enterprises of Detroit, this was a rare option, most likely the result of its $149.95 sticker price!
We are thrilled to offer this 1948 Chevrolet Fleetline Aero Sedan! Finished in its original Oxford Maroon hood, fenders and roof with correct ash and mahogany wood panels, the car is sure to catch eyes wherever it goes! Equipped with its original 216.5ci "Stovebolt" Inline-6, the car survives today in magnificent mechanical condition. Showing only 47,000 miles, all indications back this up as original but we do not have enough evidence to verify. This woody includes all the original features including: 3-speed column-shift manual transmission, under seat heater, vent, shades, outside rear-view mirrors, fog lights, dual spotlights, pushbutton AM radio, a fully functional 8-day dash clock, fender skirts, Firestone Deluxe Champion wide white walls, front and rear bumper guards, truck guard, fender stone guards, tissue dispenser and deluxe wheel covers! Of special note is the LOF Hi-Test Safety Plate glass that is date-coded to 1948.

1948 CHEVROLET FLEETLINE

Finished in classic black with incredibly rare ash and mahogany “Woody” body paneling, this 1948 Chevrolet Fleetline Aerosedan shows just 40,794 original miles and has been extraordinarily maintained since new. The gorgeous wood trim was not originally offered by the factory, but is believed to have been made by Engineered Enterprises of Detroit and was applied directly overtop the regular steel body. The workmanship is impeccable and it would be impossible to say it was not factory installed if you were not informed otherwise. It greatly transforms an already gorgeous design into one that truly garners traffic stopping attention. This car runs and drives beautifully, yet retains a high degree of original content; making it a great driver as it is, or a perfect candidate for a full and straightforward restoration.
