About Hagerty’s condition ratings
Decent older repaint, top, chrome and interior. The engine compartment is orderly but old and never fully restored. Good steering wheel, dash and gauges. A good driver.
Market commentary
Remarkably, in 1949 Chevrolet built over 32,000 Styline Deluxe Convertibles. Few have survived, which may explain why this aged and used but sound example brought this much money. The result is generous, but not excessively so.
