Only One Chevy Fleetline Left Order Today!
The Fleetline Deluxe models were considered six passenger cars. They were produced in 2 door and 4 door models. In their day they were considered to be mid-priced Chevrolet. Also a Styleline Deluxe version was available. In 1950 saw the Bel-Air and Bel-Air Convertible considered higher priced cars.
The scale model manufactures have provided many versions to collect over the years. You can still find both the Styleline Deluxe and the Fleetline Deluxe models with and without the trim and “Deluxe” script on the front fender. Also you can find versions of the models with and without the gravel guards on the rear fenders.
Deluxe models were equipped with fender skirts that also improved their looks. White wall tires were available at an addition cost. My Dad called them Gangster walls.
In the 50s the sales pitch was “The ride that is new” and “smooth is everyone’s word for the companionable Chevrolet also comfortable also convenient!”
One of the later ads stated. “New Chevrolets feature smarter styling, improved performance and a really sensational new driving development”
