Jose's '48 Chevy Sedan

from Brazil

The car is owned by  José Ricardo Tanko of Blumenau, Brazil, a city founded by German immigrants in 1850.  Blumenau is located in the vale do Itajai (Itajai Valley) about 400 miles south of Sao Paulo.  The car was restored, but the front crossmember was modified to get that "in the weeds" stance. Rear spring lowering blocks and de-arched springs were used.  The 216 engine, 3 speed and torque tube driveshaft remain stock.
