Classic Car Addict would like to introduce this distinctive all metal and totally custom 1948 Chevrolet Fleetline Custom Coupe that gives a super-sleek first impression from every angle! As you dig deeper, you’re going to love how the total package mixes vintage styling with proper small block power, TH350 transmission, custom interior, and so much more. The sweeping all metal fenders and sleek rounded silhouette of this Chevys sheet metal were made for this custom application of blue. It has a modern shine that highlights the vintage curves. We especially like the hand painted pinstripe (purple, white, and light blue) that really draw your eye to the sharply pointed grille. To add; you’ll love the details with the expertly shaved trim (including door handles,) frenched taillights, headlights, and license plate; power windows, sport mirrors, custom parking lights, custom one-off rockers, custom gas filler, and American Racing chrome 15x7 wheels. LED Dakota Digital alphanumeric gear shift indicator is another nice touch! And of course, before they did any of the other custom work, they chopped 3 inches out of the roof line that gives the ideal street machine profile.
The interior goes for a tasteful gray tweed and vinyl, but the blue carries onto the dash and the custom door panels just so you know this is a very uniform build. Part of this custom transformation was about making this classic quite a bit more comfortable. That’s why you have nice bolstering on the front bucket seats, and they individually adjust to your ideal setting. The back has a well-done bench and offers adult-sized legroom. Modern features like the Panasonic cockpit AM/FM/Cassette stereo, CB radio (not working), with cold air conditioning that will keep everyone happy and comfortable. Of course, we all know the driver is the “Legend”; that’s why you have upgrades like the custom steering wheel with Chevys Heartbeat logo, a tilt column, and a crisp set of upgraded VDO gauges.
The inner walls of the engine bay have a sleek and clean look that funnel your attention to the polished heart in the middle. More than just a great look, this is Chevy’s hardy 350 cubic-inch V8. It’s upgraded engine modifications are a bored .030 over forged pistons, Edelbrock Weber performer cam, intake and carburetor and a dual exhaust with a nice low rumble. This custom build was meant for the road with the front suspension upgraded to a Mustang II IFS and rear has a Nova with stock springs. There’s an aluminum radiator to help keep this motor running cool, and the 3-speed automatic transmission holds all the power. Plus, there’s power steering, front disc brakes, and a nice tread on the BF Goodrich tires 205/60R15 and 215/70R15. This is a true custom build that fits everything you could ever want.
