1951 Chevrolet Fleetline

Due to its iconic curvy shape, the Chevrolet Fleetline is suitable for all kinds of crazy chopping. As a result, there aren't that many around that have remained immune to power tools, and if you were looking for a pristine and unmolested example, then you haven't found it. However, if a custom one is on your shopping list, then the pictured car is worth checking out.
Made in 1951, one year before the bowtie brand pulled the plug on it, it is described as a "mesmerizing vintage beauty" that has "undergone a masterful transformation." For one, three inches (76 mm) were chopped from its window line, and this gives it a hot-rod-ish look. Subsequently, it was fully restored, hence the ultra-clean look inside and out.
Such a project demands a serious engine under the hood, and in this case, you're looking at a 2001 LQ4 V8 with an LS9 cam, a turbocharger, and an automatic transmission whose shifts are said to be smooth, delivering the thrust to the rear wheels. Truth be told, there is no word on the torque, but the ad claims the output is very impressive. In fact, it enjoys between 650 and 800 horsepower, which makes it about as punchy as a modern-day supercar.
The work didn't stop here, as it needed a proper suspension to handle all that power. Thus, it received it alongside power disc brakes on all four wheels to bring it to a full stop in no time. It also sports a powder-coated frame for extra durability, and an adjustable air suspension is on deck for custom height adjustment and personalized dynamics at the push of a button. The vintage air conditioning is still on deck and works perfectly. The wheels and tires are brand new, so you won't need to invest in a different set if you decide to buy it.
Speaking of investing, this 1951 Chevrolet Fleetline is said to have eaten a small fortune during the restoration and upgrading process. The sum is estimated at well over $160,000, or about as much as a brand-new Porsche 911 Carrera 4 GTS. NOW OFFERED BY ARIZONA AUTO RESOURCE. 888-575-0032
