1952 Chevy 2 Door Sedan

1952 Chevrolet Styleline Deluxe in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

  

     Here is my 1952 Chevrolet Styleline Deluxe four door sedan. It's my daily driver here in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and still runs great with the 216 engine. The only non original parts are electrical system (now 12 volt) and cloth interior. My Chevy - never restored - was made in Tarrytown and has the speedometer in kilometers.
     Until the early 60`s 1949-1952 Chevys were the most common models in Brazil (taxi drivers loved this strong cars). Today, however, the old American cars are a rare sight on streets and my Chevy attracts lots of attention.
     I'm his second owner. The car spent years uncared in a garage before I bought it in 1996.
Now, I'm planning to purchase another car - a green 1951 Styleline in great shape, with 6 volt system and original radio working. It will be used only in weekends, and the black 51 will continue as a daily beater!
