My folks owned a '47 Chevy 2 door Stylemaster , in black, and it was the car they owned from 1947 to 1960. My brother and I grew up riding in the back, usually standing up holding onto the blanket ropes so we could see better. I always wondered why the cigarette ashtray was located way up on the dashboard because it was hard to reach. My father never smoked while driving; Mom, however, did, and it seemed she could never hit the ashtray so the ashes were just about everywhere except in the ashtray. Great memories - thanks for posting
My good friend back in the middle 60s had a 47 chevy , straight six , 3 speed stick on the column with vacuum assist . It shifted very easy . It didn't look this pristine , it was flat black , red wheels and white walls . We had alot of fun in that car . Three guys in the front , 4 in the back and cruise . Lets all smoke a cigarette . LOL
Love this Chevy ! My Dad got one before I was born right after he married my mom in 1946 , he loved that car , he pulled a long trailer from Illinois to California in 1956 , they kept the Chevy until 1959 , then my grandmother gave them a 1956 Pontiac Star Chief , I don’t remember that Chevy I was only 3 yrs old .
Fantastic! Only looks like it's"missing" a few things... Vacuum ashtray, overdrive, 2 speed axle, blue dot tail lenses.... And ME IN THE DRIVER'S SEAT.
..Beautiful!...although I'm not really a fan of the lowered suspension or the "visor" in front, i'd much rather have it that way than slammed, bucket seats, LS motor, 32" wheels, and a god-awful "patina"-type paint job!.....
