When you catch a glimpse of this 1951 Chevrolet Styleline Deluxe Station Wagon, it's like surfing a wave back to the '50s. Coated in a vibrant red, this wagon rides on 15" 'smoothie' wheels wrapped in classic wide whitewalls, size 205/75R15 at the front and 225/75R15 at the rear, artfully blending old-school charm with modern flair. The body, adorned with an artful simulation of wood " a nod to the era's 'Tin Woody' wagons " stands out as a masterpiece. The sunshade over the windshield and a roof rack hint at endless summers and surfboards, while the meticulously painted 'wood' panels ensure this Chevy holds a special place in the hearts of enthusiasts and beachgoers alike.
Inside, the vibe continues with a tan cloth bench seating arrangement, both in front and back, embracing the vintage aesthetic without compromising on comfort. The craftsmanship extends to the wooden door panels and the dash, which houses Dolphin gauges, exuding a warmth that complements the cool efficiency of the upgraded AC system. The shifter, perched on the column, adds a touch of nostalgia, perfectly syncing with the era this wagon aims to encapsulate.
Under the guise of its retro exterior, this Chevy hides a 250 CI Inline 6 engine, mated with a Powerglide 2-speed automatic transmission, a pairing that promises reliability and smooth transitions. The Mustang II front end, with rack and pinion steering seamlessly welded in, and adjustable front coilovers, provide a driving experience that blends old with new, ensuring every journey is as memorable as the destination. The rear sports leaf springs with air shocks, balancing the ride and adding to the car's unique driving characteristics. Despite its vintage, the inclusion of an aluminum radiator and an upgraded AC hints at a vehicle that respects its roots while embracing modern enhancements.
