Ahhh, actually Dan, it's a 1946 Chevy ( no subs yet)

From 1947-1953 Chevy Subs & Panels looked pretty much the same. Unless you knew the subtle differences.
Heres a '48 Panel

I almost bought this a few years back.
Yes it was going to get painted black
I know it's not a 49 but it's one of my favorite Chevy models.
Very hallucinogenic

60 was a great year for Chevys.







My other choices were a Tempest Station Wagon (like a GTO) or a 63 1 ton GMC with an awesome full size camper.

I'm glad I waited

Ahhh yes a 1960 Chevy Sedan Delivery.. Very Cool. I have always liked the Sedan Deliveries.

Those were some long cars. I had a '59 Chevy Bel-Air...283 3 speed w/OD & cherry bomb mufflers.. Good ol days..

I personally would have rather seen the HHR have the old style round headlights like the old suburban, or even like the Mini Coopers...
