Timeless mild custom 1951 Chevrolet tudor sedan in candy brandywine with 1950’s style and modern power and comfort. The Chevy is believed to have spent most of its life out west and was customized approximately 10 years ago.
The Current owner purchased the car three years ago with 7,000 miles on the odometer and has only added another 2500 attending local car cruises and shows. He has made several needed improvements and modifications to make this custom 1951 very reliable and a pleasure to drive. See the specifics for improvements.
Body modifications include 1955 Chevrolet taillights with 1956 Buick lenses, shaved door handles, louvered hood, nosed, decked, frenched 1954 Plymouth headlight rims, one-piece Oldsmobile windshield, 1957 Cadillac hubcaps, and 52 Chevy grill with extra ‘teeth’.
The driveline and interior are more of a modern flavor with power coming from a Vortec, 350 c.i., 4-bolt main, 030” over Chevrolet V-8 backed by a rebuilt 700R4 overdrive automatic transmission. The interior features late model Cadillac power seats, Vintage Air heat/A/C, and cruise control.

I have been an active eBay seller of cars and other items for since 2002 and maintained a close to a 100% rating during most of that period. Around 2011 I started an online service assisting owners of Classic, Vintage, and Muscle cars to sell their vehicles without them leaving the garage. These are private individual owners who do not want to deal with the public and all of the endless phone calls, “Tire kickers”, and other nonsense that goes on when trying to sell a car. They just want someone to sell it!!
