Seller's comments about 1951' Chevrolet Styleline

This 1951 Chevrolet Styleline Deluxe is affordable fun in the kind of vintage coupe thats becoming rarer and rare on the classic car scene. And this one has the right upgrades for a great driver. So It makes for a nice car to take to local cruise-ins and enjoy with your family on a trip to the local ice cream parlor. Detroit was happy to awaken after WWII with plenty of stylized cars. This meant providing new ideas with interesting curvaceous bodies. And of course, there was chrome, too. On this Styleline, brightwork surrounds all the glass, frames the stylish roof, runs down the side, outlines the lower rear fender, surrounds every exterior light, covers both bumpers, and give the car a sharp-looking grille. Possibly the most sought-after piece of trim is the bright hood ornament that reminds us all that this is the beginning of the jet age. All of this makes the car so distinctive today. Plus, the Seafoam green has a wonderful nostalgic tone, and while the finish is bright, it also doesnt make you afraid to enjoy this on the open road. In fact, everything has the feeling like its ready for Route 66, right down to the classic whitewalls. The interior continues this feeling with a simple and vintage setup. It starts with two wide rows of bench seats finished in a comfy cloth and has a sofa-like button-top seatback. The dash has a truly classic-style presentation with an Art Deco style look, artful steering wheel, and even the AM radio is still on display. But this one is meant for driving, and the added tach on the steering column reminds you of that. Chevys durable inline-six was the backbone of the company for decades. This is the larger 235 cubic-inch displacement, and its a year-correct block thats believed to be original to the car. So youll love talking about this accurate setup at the car shows. But this one has been made to be more than just historic. Its running a 12-vot system with a proper alternator and upgraded distributor. Its a strong runner that loves to hit the road. In fact, you have a Powerglide automatic transmission and upgraded power brakes w/discs up front to really make this one a terrific cruiser. When you love the classic look, and know you want to drive it, then you know you need this Chevy. Call today!!!
