For sale in our St. Louis showroom is a fully loaded, great driving street rod, a 1948 Chevrolet Fleetmaster 5 window. To show you how comfortable this Chevy is, after the build was complete, the owner has driven the car just over 20,000 miles! The car has toured from Rochester, NY to central NJ for national car shows. This is a true hot rod capable of making many long journeys. The car is all steel, including the body and fenders. The roof was chopped 4" and the windshield is a split 2 piece. The beautiful exterior looks more like it has 2,000 miles and is comprised of PPG's Soft Yellow paint with custom green and black flames. Looking inside this comfortable ride you'll see two tone gray suede buckets in the rear and front. Options include: ice cold AC, warm heat, am/fm radio, cassette, power steering, tilt wheel, power brakes, power windows, power antenna, aluminum/alloy wheels, radial tires, and halogen headlights. Under the hood you'll find a very powerful 402 CID V8 engine bored .030 over to a 408 displacement. Hearing the exhaust, you'll swear there's a big block under the hood! The engine offers: Jet coated exhaust headers, FlowMaster exhaust, aluminum Edelbrock intake, Edelbrock 4BBL carburetor, electric choke, chrome water pump, chrome alternator, Mallory electronic ignition, and heavy duty 8mm plug wires. Backing the stout engine is a turbo 350 automatic transmission and a 10-bolt rear-end with 3.23 gears. The car comes with many receipts on the build. You simply cannot build a car like this cheaply.
