The Appeal
The Chevrolet Fleetline Deluxe Sedan from the late 1940s is one of the most striking expressions of American fastback design; its smooth roofline and generous proportions give it a presence that few post-war saloons can match. Finding one in Europe is genuinely rare, and finding one in this condition even more so.
This 1949 example has undergone a complete, ground-up restoration over the last three years, with more than €60,000 invested in the process. Moreover, the work has been carried out by the current owner, who, according to our information, is a professional in the classics sector. The bodywork has been fully rebuilt and freshly painted in black, while the interior has been completely redecorated in green upholstery. Mechanically, we are told the 3.5-litre inline-six Blue Flame is fully rebuilt, and the car retains its original 6-volt electrical system, a detail that reflects the authenticity-focused approach adopted throughout. The seller states that the car drives very nicely, the three-speed manual transmission shifts smoothly, and the engine starts easily.
For enthusiasts seeking a 1940s Americana piece with a smart look on European soil, this Fleetline Deluxe Sedan represents a convincing opportunity.IMG_7225 Classic Cars Company.jpg3.64 MB
