1949 Chevy...enjoy!

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by Nitro-Flattie1, May 24, 2008.

  1. I picked this up a week ago...Im going to give it a face lift...It needs front gl*** and door gl***. Needs interior...its running the 6 with a split manifold and dul pipes...The guy i bought it from said his wife bought it for him while he was overseas in the Navy. He was not into it and he did not know the history of the car other than it came from Santa Cruz, CA. Does anyone on here know this car??? Any and all info would be a big help. Thanks

    I dont know anything about the car, but I like it. Get some gl*** in and drive the wheels off of it.

    That sure flows nicely. whoever did it had a great eye. One of the prettiest early Chevies I've seen! What's it say on the trunk, or is that just stripes?
     
  7. Thanks, The trunk just has stripes...no words.:D

    only thing to do would be to slightly pancake the trunk lid, but still, a rad little chevy, and for sure that wife of his married the wrong guy :p

    That's the understatement of the year. I'm betting there is a divorce in that guys future, just as soon as his wife comes across someone who appreciates her.

    Maybe sailor-boy didn't like it 'cause it looks like a TORPEDO! That thing is killer... and they kept the 6, which makes it even cooler!

    Oh yeah, nice ride! The six is the only way for that car. Of course I may be a little biased!
