America's best-selling motor car manufacturer at the time, Chevrolet, re-organised its line-up for 1949, rationalising the range into two Series - Special (basic) and Deluxe - both of which featured Styleline (notchback) and Fleetline (fastback) body styles. This distinction would last until the end of the 1952 season when the fastback model was dropped altogether along with the 'Styleline' name. Chevrolet's sole power unit at this time was the famous 'stovebolt', 216. 5ci (3, 549cc) overhead-valve six. The latter had continued unchanged for many years prior to the introduction of GM's Powerglide two-speed automatic transmission in 1951, when a 235. 5ci (3. 9-litre) version became available.
This is a rare opportunity to own a fully spec’d, ready to rally Chevrolet in excellent condition. The current owner (a veteran Peking to Paris entrant) has spent in excess of £ 160, 000 with Rally Preparation Services (RPS) to make this car a true contender. We collected the car directly from them post restoration and can now offer her for sale.
