The 1951 Chevrolet Deluxe Sedan was part of Chevrolet's postwar lineup and represented an affordable family car of the early 1950s. Built on Chevrolet's A-body platform, the Deluxe sat above the more standard trim models and featured additional chrome accents, upgraded interior materials and more exterior color options.
One-Family-Owned Classic-
This Chevrolet Deluxe Sedan is a solid example of a classic Chevy. According to the current owner, this Chevy has been in the family since new and received careful restoration in 2012. The process included a handsome respray of Burgundy Red with exterior accents that include nice chrome, rear fender skirts, original dog-dish hubcaps and 15" wide-white BFGoodrich Silvertown radial tires.
Restored Interior-
The restored interior is in very good condition. Custom vinyl material has been used to create the upholstery, door cards and headliner. A classic dash retains the original instrumentation, clock, heater controls and an aftermarket tach. The factory AM radio also resides in the dash but needs some TLC.
Performance 'Stovebolt' Drivetrain-
This solid Chevy is powered by a 216ci 'Thriftmaster' straight-six that was rated at 92hp. It has had performance upgrades including an Offenhauser dual-carburetor intake, dual exhaust and an HD aluminum radiator. Behind this 'Stovebolt' sits a 3-speed manual transmission with column shift. The electrical system has been converted to 12v alternator based.
The '51 Chevrolet was prized for its rugged reliability and simple maintenance, making it one of the best-selling cars in America that year. Today it is an enduring symbol of early '50s American motoring.
