1951 Chevrolet Styleline Restomod

Description

This 1951 Chevrolet Styleline Deluxe has that right touch of custom on the exterior to look like a terrific cruiser. And with the custom leather interior, cold-blowing A/C, upgraded suspension, and well-done small block V8 power, this one has been given the right investments to make sure it really is the kind of classic that you'll love to drive every weekend.

Black paint is always an attention-grabber, and this has the nice gloss and smooth feel that tells you there has been a quality application here. It looks like it's just a full professional detail away from taking center stage at any car show, but for this of us who like to just drive and enjoy, the shine is perfect. There are plenty of custom details that make this cool, like the 16-inch American Racing Torq Thrust wheels, dual exhaust tips, and the '52 front end. But the real desire is in the basic style of a great classic post-war cruiser that has well-done sheet metal that really makes all the shining brightwork details look extra crisp and clean.

The interior is a well-done package that gives you all the best upgrades while still keeping the right classic details. After all, you still have the factory dash, two-piece windshield, and classic-style door card pattern. But your first impression will be about how inviting is far fresher and more inviting than anything out of the 1950s. The front seats are pure luxury with individual buckets that have nice bolstering. They even both power adjust to your ideal comfort position. They are finished in leather with comfy cloth inserts, and the rear has been done to match. It has more of the right comfort features that are well-integrated like an armrest center console, cup holders, full carpeting, an AM/FM/CD stereo, and cold-blowing air conditioning. There are even quality little details, like the clean glass and good weather-stripping. Because this was built to be a driver, you also have nice upgrades like an NK4 steering wheel on a tilt column and the cool blue glow of the full digital gauge package.

This is the generation before Chevy's small block era, but the V8 is such a great upgrade that they couldn't resist it for this cruiser. The 350 cubic-inch motor looks great with the bright style radiating within the dark and clean inner walls of the engine bay. This has a full Edelbrock upgrades suite with the four-barrel carburetor, Performer EPS intake, finned valve covers, and matching air grabber. You've also got good supporting components like an electric fan, steel braided lines, an electronic ignition, and the battery moved to the trunk for better weight distribution. The V8 fires up eagerly, and the header-fed dual exhaust makes a nice tone. This was built to be a cruiser, so there's an upgraded tubular A-arm front suspension, three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, front disc brakes, and modern Michelin tires. So it's a sharp-looking car that's also a great anywhere/anytime cruiser.

A carefully done build with a sleek style, comfy interior, and small block power make for an irresistible setup. That's why we know this cool Chevy will be cruising again very soon. So don't miss out, call today!
