The Chevrolet Fleetline was produced from 1941 to 1952.  It was available in both four-door and two-door “Aerosedan” models.<\/p>\n

The Fleetline was popular and comprised over 70% of Chevrolet’s sales during its production, although there was a pause in their manufacturing during WWII years.  In 1945, production normalized. <\/p>\n

Fleetlines are popular and collectable and are often converted into street hot-rods, using the Chevrolet 350 small block V8.  This was a particularly nicely preserved specimen I spotted in Calgary.<\/p>\n
