Restored steel body fenders classic vintage Chevy street rod
Description
With its sleek look, completely custom A/C interior, and shining small block power, you can see that someone put a ton of work into this 1947 Chevrolet Stylemaster. So now that the hard work is done, you have an opportunity to turn the key and have all the fun.
This Chevy occupies that interesting space that lies in between a cruising classic coupe and all-out street machine. It looks like the ideal immediate post-WWII gem, with its two-piece windshield and extra large fenders that extend all the way into the doors. There's less than 5,700 miles on the restoration, and not only did they make the body look great, but also you get the best in brightwork with the big grille, bumpers, rocker trim, and sleek hood ornament. Plus, the sweeping trim line that runs the entire length of the body further showcases the straightness of the sheetmetal. But there's more here than an investment in the classic elements. The whole car is covered n a glossy red that gives this a vivid modern glow. And those upgraded American Racing Torq Thrust wheels have a high-polish shine that draws extra attention to the taller and wider ones in the rear.
The custom interior is vastly more comfortable than anything that came out of the '40s. It starts with a set of tan bucket seats up front that have creative stitching and plenty of modern bolstering for all-day comfort. This coordinates with the rear seats, door panels, headliner, and even the trunk to create a full uniform package that was done with care. You also have nice upgrades like cup holders and power windows. The dash is extremely well done as it takes the exterior red, mixes in plenty of vintage brightwork, and then integrates all the right upgrades. This includes an AM/FM/CD stereo and cold-blowing R134a air conditioning. The Billet Specialties steering wheel matches the tan and chrome themes, and it's mounted on a tilt column to give you an excellent view of the upgraded AutoMeter gauges.
Under the hood, the smooth color-matched firewall and all those polished components prove this V8 is ready to show off. And when you look beyond the shine, you'll see the substance of a 350 cubic-inch motor upgraded with a Holley four-barrel carburetor and shorty headers that feed the rumbling dual exhaust. This tidy setup even has an aluminum radiator with electric fan to help your V8 stay cool even if you're in traffic with the A/C pumping. The upgraded front suspension, three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and power brakes w/discs up front combine for a total package that makes it easy to enjoy this Chevy on the streets.
Complete with build receipts, this is a bright custom that can move family and friends around in air conditioned comfort. What more could you ask for? Don't let this complete package slip away, call today!
