Vehicle Detail

For Sale is a Rare 1955 Chevrolet 150 Business Coupe. This is a true business coupe not a modified one. It still has the original wood platform in the rear. There is no back seat in this car, and there never was. This car was originally purchased by the Bell Telephone Co. The car was originally white. These cars were completely deleted of all trim, radio, and even the rear windows didn't roll down. This car was painted by the Bell Telephone Co a medium Green/Grey. The Black was painted sometime in the late 1970's. There is no rust on the car that can be found. There is the normal surface rust here and there but no rust thru spots that i am aware of. The glass is nice for a good driver. There are no cracks or chips and very little delamination around the edges. There is no front carpet. It was removed because it was in bad shape. The trunk mat and platform mat are both missing. The front seat and the door panels are in great condition. Great foam in the seat. The back does not sag either. Still has the original trunk insulation on the trunk lid. The chrome on the car is pitted but very very restorable. The rust on the rear bumper is just surface rust. The condition of the bumpers are great. The car has been cleaned from top to bottom. There is very little grease and grime on the undercarriage. Everything has been meticulously cleaned and checked. But nothing was painted, so nothing is hidden. The paint is not perfect and should not be expected that it is. There is very little shine on it. The paint is very oxidized, however looks great with great PATINA! Some paint is peeling off on roof and other small areas. Only the black is peeling off down to the Greenish/grey paint. The engine is original and just went thru a major tune up. New fuel pump, carb, plugs, wires, cap, rotor, rebuild original generator, new water pump, new fuel sending unit, cleaned and sealed fuel tank, cleaned and checked radiator. Exhaust seams to be mostly original, except new donut at manifold. Car does have a slight engine oil leak coming from the front timing cover area. Engine, Trans, and Differential all serviced. This car Runs & Drives Beautifully. All four drum brakes are new. New pads, wheel cylinders, springs, and turned drums. New shocks too. There is only one spot on the car that I can find that has any Bondo. It is a softball size dent that was covered in the right rear quarter panel. The front right fender has some paint checking, but does not seem to have any filler work in it. This car also has brand new Michelin Tires on all four corners along with original poverty hub caps. Again this car is a running and driving car. It has been lowered alittle back in the day. But has a great stance and is a great driver. You won't find a nicer car to start a restoration, or just to have a fun driver as is. Car is not currently registered, But I do have a Title. Also have original air cleaner that will go with the car too. Vehicle is for sale locally, I reserve the right to end the auction early. You can see this car to inspect it by responding thru Ebay or calling 909.894.9451. Any other questions or pictures please call too. This is a one of a kind find Dont Miss Out! Thanks Brian
