 As Frank says each time, the surprises never get lonely! showing for us this great Chevrolet a Coupè model Series 85 ,model year 1939.we're always at the Plane of Fame Museum...
 The car is the small version and very similar to the Master Deluxe,more popular ,and more low cost pricing in the '39.
 the typical line for the end of 30's of the rear end view...a lady..:-)
 Painted leaf green (paint code IM 2031) with Brown interiors


 the coupè was few popular only for a thing : the single bench at the rear interior, very uncomfortable.

 whiteline wheels give a special touch for this car,as the radio (see the antenna) improving the comfort for the buyers that in those year wished a very distinctive car

 characteristics of his model is the grille,that give a Cadillac  explicit appearance! low price,for great look! (for those years).
 The Chevy was painted in a “woodash brown poly ( color code:IM2034)”
 And his tan interior is the perfect contrast,for a superior look and style.
 manual gear on the floor,(three gears)...Bench seat...radio and full confort...what else for the last 30's?
 under the hood,at seagull wing open the big 216 c.i six inline (85 hp)...drank now with two Stromberg Carbs (Frank touch)
  the big trunk give a very impressive look,aristocratic and wealthy...a true  lady...

CHEVROLET IMPALA 1959

California,fall season,thru Sierra Nevada Frank takes us at pleasure visit at the Sequoia National Park with a special car: Chevy Impala '59,colored  in an armonious color that does not clash with the forest green that surrounding the car.
The Impala is intact and in perfect condition, moves placidly among the silent forests and impressive and the hum of its V8 engine (283 hp from 335 us injection) seems not to arouse the quiet of the park.
 Frank take some photographs from the Tunnel log an amazing park attraction near Moro rock (the tunnel was formed by digging a giant sequoia fell in 1937).
 images for a perfect interior bi-tone

 the very clean engine...

what other said? a beautiful car in an even better scene!
