1948 Chevrolet Fleetline

Just out of a private collection, GR Auto Gallery is pleased to offer this sleek 1948 Chevrolet Fleetline 2 Door Aerosedan for all to consider. According to the estate, the car has been the recipient of a complete restoration completed approximately 25 years ago. Since the car has been kept in private collection, properly stored in a climate controlled environment, driven, shown and appreciated. The car is finished in correct Oxford Maroon Metallic exterior paint over burgundy cloth interior. Mechanically it is powered by a 216.5 CID inline six engine, 3 speed manual transmission and open axle rear wheel drive. The car comes highly optioned including: Exterior trim décor, fender skirts, am radio, interior hood release, clock, glove box, exterior sun visor, chrome hub caps with trim rings, jack and spare tire. The body panels are wonderfully straight, the paint remains excellent throughout, the trim and chrome remain original and very nice, the interior is also excellent featuring unrestored gauges, knobs, radio and clock giving the car the perfect amount of patina. Mechanically, the car is in excellent drive anywhere condition and has had a recent tune up with coil, cap, plugs and wires as well as newer tires and new exhaust.
The Areosedan represents a time where automotive designers took a futuristic approach to Art Deco design. The over all shape, trim and ultra stylish lines all represent forward movement as there were big changes in the automotive industry just over the horizon. With a relatively low survival rate as well as a favorite as a base for custom builders, Areosedans that posses the originality and quality of the one offered here are few and far between and remain sought after around the globe. No wrong decision here.
