Looking for Tips on 1948 Chevy Fleetmaster 4-Door

Absolutely! You also might want to consider a pre-purchase inspection if you’re not buying from a known source.

Has anyone here restored a Fleetmaster? I’m curious about the parts situation. Are they easy to find, or should I be ready for a scavenger hunt?

I had a tough time sourcing parts for mine. Some are widely available, but unique trims can take a lot of searching! Joining a Chevy club can help with leads.

Good to know! It beats going to eBay for hours, and you might find other enthusiasts for help!

With a bit of patience, you can find parts at reasonable prices if you’re lucky. Just remember, it can get competitive out there!

Sounds like a classic car reality show waiting to happen! Who can outbid whom for that elusive trim piece!
