Listing my 1 off custom 1949 Chevy choptop styleline.
I started this project with the intentions of having a great driving kustom lead sled. After some snowballing and over building it I would rather put money into things that I can enjoy more often.

Car runs great, stops good, handles and rides well but these are the finishing things it needs:-seats need to be redone as well as the door panels (my interior guy quoted me 3500-4000 to be finished, most material has been purchased and included, if you want him to finish it that would be great)-bumpers arent very nice, they have chrome tape on them, new chrome smoothies are $700 for the pair-needs front bump stops (had to weld some metal on temporarily since I had to put car in storage for a year after I sold my house)-Could use some under dash wiring cleaned up-rear window hasn’t been installed because package tray is incomplete (was trying to decide on sinking speakers into package tray)-air filter setup isn’t done and is temporary-transmission makes bad noise on deceleration and i will include a low mileage 4l80e upon purchase
this is still a project car but add your finishing touches to interior to make it your own! sold as is
