1951 Chevrolet Fleetline, A mild custom that wasn't always cool

- This 1951 Fleetline was purchased with the intention of becoming my first custom. Join me on my journey as I take it from being a complete derelict to an award winning cruiser. This is the car that I truly advanced my skills on and provided me a canvas to portray what a custom car should be

Outstanding work! Really dig the subtle details!
Thank you! I kept it pretty short, but there is a lot I didn’t cover like the peaked hood, shaved handles and reversed gas door. Thank you for the mention on IG
the over rider bar alone is a friggin work of art, Sir!!
Thanks!!!
Good video. Nice looking car.
Thank you! I appreciate it!
Absolutely beautiful 51 Chevy! Love your channel 👍

Just subscribed 👍. Very good video! Nice build man !! Can’t wait for more content!
Thank you very much!
That's really cool man.
Thank you!
I usually like this particular model left alone, as it is very cool and well proportioned as it is, but you have done a very tasteful custom and the paint is incredible! What a colour? Well done!
Thank you! Thats a great compliment! This was custom mixed color
Too Cool!! That’s something to be very proud of!👍
Thank you!
My first car was a 50 fleetline, brought back good mems. Love your build!
thank you! glad you enjoyed!
Had 51 fleetline it was violet primer straight pipes lowered hard and a blast to drive
That sounds like it was awesome!
Subscribed and notified🤘 I could tell from the Highway 1 photo you're a local. Nice build man.
Thank you very much! I am out of Calgary
@@MagnaMachineWorks figured so, I'm in Red Deer. I'll have to stop by one day and try to absorb a little knowledge🤝
@@jp.lagrange that would be awesome! Let me know when you are free, I work shift work. I do all this stuff from home. DM me on instagram @magnamachineworks
That car did come up great, I felt privileged to mess with you guys when you pulled the engine that night when we were in Edmonton. Man that car came up very cool
Thanks John! It was a pleasure for you to come and visit. Thank you for the kind words!
Those taillights are brilliant! What a great video, and a great car!
Thank you!!!
Glorious!
Thank you!
Beautiful car, very simple and clean, tastefully done!! Keep up the great work!!
Thank you very much! Also, I think that one of you comments got nuked. I saw it flash up, but yes, I will follow suit but I will wait a few days. If you have instagram, PM me and I can explain.
@@MagnaMachineWorks sounds good
Great car mate, so sad to see you sold it....I was hoping for more video s....just love what you did to her...cheers mate from Dave in Australia 🇦🇺
Thank you! I really wish I had gotten into the youtube stuff earlier and filmed it a lot more. I appreciate the kind words!
@@MagnaMachineWorks no worries mate, I just wish my 51 chevrolet would be half as nice as yours....very hard to get parts in Australia...but will be so worth it....
@@davidoswald6194 thank you! It will totally be worth it for sure!
Very nice work, but I would chop it, French the headlights, and maybe a couple Frenched antennas. But looks really good like that. That's just my custom blood in me talking!... 😎👍
Thank you! That would be totally cool too!
Hey nice ride
Thank you!
Question, why would a stovebolt 1951Chevy 235 start a slight misfire every now and then only when its running for a long while at a slightly hot operating temperature?
Not 100% sure without trying some stuff, but that sounds classic coil is starting to fail
Good memories of being under that car.
Absolutely! Good memories of club nights and working on everyone's stuff, as well as BBQ's or eating at the best worst place in town!
Awesome Chevy!!! Just subscribed to your channel!! 👍🏽 By the way what color did you paint your Fleetline? Beautiful color!!
Thank you so much! I appreciate it! The color is one that we mixed up ourselves experimenting in the paint room until we liked it.
My Fleetline was coming together at the same time but I never got it to the next level. Other distractions like a 55 Ford wagon and then a fire.
I’m sad that we never got to cruise them together.
The plan for the 55 Chevy wagon is full custom.
it would have been so cool if we could have cruised them together. I really like your T project, your 55 wagon will be super cool when its done!
@@MagnaMachineWorks well we need to do some this summer.
The T should be a full roller soon
@@AndyGeesGarage Absolutely! I have some stuff sorted out and some holidays booked. I will text you and let you know
Beautiful fender extension! I'm sure if Chevrolet had seen your car, they would have copied your design for future models!
What a wonderful comment! Thank you! That is exactly what I had in mind with this car!
