Ever get tired of doing what everyone else is doing? How about a rod thats not only incredibly stylishand#44; but also practical? This 1939 Chevrolet Stylemaster 2-door sedan delivers on all countsand#44; with a great lookand#44; lots of room insideand#44; and a nicely crafted chassis that rides and handles like a modern machine. Fairly extensively modifiedand#44; this Chevys all steel body takes on an entirely new look. The bodywork has been treated to a host of traditional hot-rodding tweaksand#44; including a chopped topand#44; shaved trimand#44; and Frenched headlights that give the 39s front end an entirely new lookand#44; especially since they used to be in separate pods up top! Fit and finish are quite goodand#44; with decent gaps and a sizzling red paint job that looks great going down the road and at local cruise nights. Out back you get more Frenched detailsand#44; as both the taillights and the license plate frame have been recessed into the bodywork. Breaking up all that bright red paint is a simple pinstripe that follows the curve of the belt moldingand#44; as if it were simulating a piece of original trim. Peep mirrors have been neatly integrated into the designand#44; and a Veed windshield adds to the sleek overall look. The original 39 grille is one of the best designs of the periodand#44; so it was left aloneand#44; along with the vents on the side of the hoodand#44; which look great and are fully functional. With room for fiveand#44; this is a rod built to cruise cross-country at a moments notice. Beautifully upholstered bucket seats use beautiful tan ultraleather to create a uniqueand#44; upscale lookand#44; and the rear bench was upholstered to match. Custom door panels are simple and elegantand#44; adding a slash of bright red to tie things togetherand#44; and they use the original window framesand#44; which give it a very polished look. The original dash now carries a billet insert which houses a full array of modern VDO gauges and the A/C ventsand#44; which are often tacked-on as an afterthought in lesser rodsand#44; are neatly built into the ends of the dashboard. A tilt column has been painted to match the bodywork and offers a beautiful wood-rimmed steering wheel thats sporty and elegant at the same time. In backand#44; theres a cavernous trunk that is finished with simple tan carpet and matching side panelsand#44; making it ready to hit the road or the local shows. Reliable and powerfuland#44; the nicely detailed 350 under the hood delivers great performance on the open road. With only 800 miles on the V8 crate motorand#44; its practically brand new and thanks to a big Holley 4-barrel carburetorand#44; it moves the Chevy with ease. Thats an Oldsmobile air cleaner from the 1950sand#44; which is a very trick lookand#44; and chrome valve covers and a bunch of bright parts make this engine bay look great. The A/C system is brand new and all the usual power accessoriesand#44; from power steering and disc brakes to a TH350 3-speed automatic transmissionand#44; are all part of the package. The front suspension is a typical Mustang II independent setup with a 10-bolt rear hanging on leaf springs out back. Polished Torque Thrust wheels fit right inside the fat fenders and wear staggered 165R15 front and 235/75/15 radial tires for the perfect stance. If you need more than two seats and enjoy your creature comfortsand#44; this 1939 Chevy is ready. Dont miss this opportunity and call today! |
