1948 Chevrolet fleet master coupe. original 216 straight 6 and three on the tree gearbox. I imported this earlier this year. it's correctly registered with DVLA and I have the logbook.

It has been converted to 12 volt electrics. nbsp;the carb has been rebuilt. It's had the brakes rebuilt throughout new wheel cylinders and brake lines. master cylinder rebuilt. The radiator was recored. new waterpump. thermostat and all new ignition parts. The tank was cleaned and new fuel pipe fitted. The wheels were repainted and brand new firestone wide whites fitted (£1000 on their own). The headlights where changed for some h4 units. all the lights work as they should. Even the vacuum wipers still work (not the best wipers in the world)

I've been using this daily since we did all the work. It travelled to the hayride and back no problem at 65mph returning 22mpg. You drive in comfort with the big sprung seats. It has the old car feel/ride to it and is never going to be a modern car. but it happily cruises along.

The car is really solid. looks to have had no welding. There is a small area at the back of the sill that needs welding. the passenger fender hole on the seam as does the rear fender. The floors including the trunk are super solid. The panels all are in good shape.

Interior is original and functional as is but obviously could be repaired or restored. The car has been repainted some time ago but looks rather cool the way it is.

This really is a cool fun car to drive. I'm happy to drive it round as it is. there is things that could be done to improve the car or changed to your own taste.

What I think it could do with is. A lockset. Fixing the fuel gauge. Sort out the speedo. Obviously you could do more if you wanted or just drive it and enjoy it.

I'd much prefer if buyers actually took the time to look at the car before making an offer. I'm only selling due to personal circumstances.
