Bob bought this car for $1,500 in Kansas and spent 21 month restoring this 2dr Chevy sedan.The body  was in great shape but the fenders needed some work.  The car is all original except for adding an alternator and air-conditioning unit. You will notice how subtle the ac unit looks on the dash.

 

 

Bob also redid the wood grain on the dash, not an easy task, I know I've tried it myself! Bob did all the work himself including the exceptional base coat /clear coat paint job. He put the compressor where the generator was and then stacked the alternator on top of the compressor which is driven by a 3/8' belt.  He took the balancer from a '47 216 and installed the pulley from a '55 235.  With this combination the rivets will work and the hole will line up. Besides the '37 Chevy, Bob also  has a '55 Chevy pickup 2nd series with a split manifold.

    What's next? He is starting work on a '38 Dodge coupe.
