I have a 1946 stylemaster sedan & a 1948 sedan for parts - Don't know what to do with them!!! both have the straight 6 and enough parts to complete one complete restoration. With some love!!! I got them out of a field - been sitting there for about 10-15 yrs any ideas ? or anyone interested in them?
I googled it to see what they looked like; saw a nifty two tone paint scheme on a 46 four door. Black above the beltline and on the fenders, and a cream or very light green elsewhere.
The Pomona Swapmeet in Southern California has a lot of lowrider guys who would ****** them or their parts up really fast. Too bad your in Utah.
Heres a few pics of the cars They are both sedans - from the vin #'s the more complete one is a 46 and the other one (missing the front end) is a 48 krome -make me an offer - Id even loook at something for trade. ****us - I hear you man - I think this would make a great lowrider
Just picked up a 48 stylemaster. I think these cars are sweet. I would say get to work and build the ****er.
Your '48 is a Fleetline 4 door sedan, commonly referred to as a "German Helmet". Very popular with the lowrider crowd. Your '46 has some Fleetline fender trims and a '47-'48 hood on it, someone has done some parts swapping on that in the past. If you're going to sell them, I would part out the '46 to make the German Helmet a more complete car with a front clip and a rollable drivetrain. Make the GH a complete car and sell that, then part out what's left of the other car. If you're going to build them, I would build the Helmet and keep the other car around for parts. A Fleetmaster/Stylemaster 4 door sedan isn't a valueable car but it would be a great source of parts for a build. The Helmet would be a worthwhile project to build, I would go lowrider bomb style on it, wouldn't make much of a hot rod but would make a fine bomb. Check out Chevybombs.com for some inspiration.
