Chevy Convertible - Year?
Posted by GAF on Friday, July 6, 2012 7:06 PM

Thought I would post this pic in FSM.  I'm certain someone is knowledgeable enough to tell me what year this is (rather than calling my uncle, who it belonged to).  Smile  I think it's a '47.

It's "red", BTW.

The 46 and 48 grills were a bit different so it looks like a 47. Love those fat fendered cars!

Too many models to build, not enough time in a lifetime!!

I agree, it's a "47.  I was six years old then, and remember those great cars!

Gimme a pigfoot, and a bottle of beer...

Thanks, guys!  The "running lights" were kinda throwing me off.

My uncle was 17 when he got this one "brand new".  Sold it the next year when he joined the Marines.

Just in time for Korea!  Maybe I can find a kit somewhere...
