Even though I'm still driving my 54, I'm looking at a 49 Chevy Deluxe Business Coupe with a 4" chopped top and original running gear..Says it's a 230 with insert bearings, and a three on the tree..He guesses?
Joker..I agree with your pics on the games, but not doing any betting with relatives..
That 49 is on Ebay..Item #4605469522

Thing is, I have two trucks, and a van..It's been a long time since I had a car, and figured if I was gonna get one, it might as well be a Bolt Car..
