    Beautiful automobile and more of an adoption than a sale.. Always glad to see these beauties being "curated" by someone who cares!

    Stylemaster was truly the correct name, gorgeous vehicle.

    Glad it's staying local, hope you see it being enjoyed properly and not getting "rims" and a loud stereo "system"

    Beautiful car. Sets the standard for my old Chev. I have a 54 Chevrolet 210 I'm restoring. With original styling in mind. Has a 58 Chevrolet 235 dressed as a 54. But, I got an little fancy with installing a 5 speed and an open drive 57 Chevrolet rear end. Just makes it cruise a little better with easier to find parts. Going back with original color, interior, and bias ply tires 🤙

    Beautiful car. Nothing else like original. It also shows the value of a heated garage.

  • @bigbass421

    Loved it. What a beautiful car.. funny- it really wasn't a luxury car by the standards of 1948, it was really a working person's car.. an 'average Joe' kind of vehicle. Even so, the attention to detail from the factory, the lovely woodgrain interior trim, the bakelite handles, radio, heater and that cool rear floor heater.. and the smoothness of that 6.. wow. too bad all of that craftsmanship seems to be focused elsewhere now. Glad to see Matt out of his cast.

    When I was in grade school back in the 1950s one of our neighbors had a car very similar to this. During the frigid winters Henry would give me and my sister a ride to school in his old Chevy. He'd let me and my sister sit up front by the heater to stay warm and have his two boys sit in the back. I still remember that old car and how nice it was of Henry giving us a warm ride to school.

    Sorry to see the Chevy go, but I bet we'll see her again. Very happy to see Matt without those darned wooden pegs under his arms. Jim should be due for an extra week's vacation this year, and I bet all next year's Christmas decorations will be at ground level!

    Beautiful survivor. Nothing breaks my heart more than a perfect original car surviving unmolested 50 or 100 years only to have a wisdom-challenged new owner doll it up with the latest cool performance products from rockauto/eckler's sending the original factory parts to a landfill. Surprising but original cars are highly sought after by mod'ers because they are easiest to "improve".

    I'm the guy with the 1969 Rover 3 litre Scott's fixed the fender on his midweek body bashing segments. I asked him if you guys would be interested in swapping out my ring gear and torque converter? Colin has a spare he offered me, but Scott thought maybe the car is too new, and British. Lol

    What a great car guys! They are only original once as they say! I would love to hear a bit about the nice little hot rod in your garage' I believe it's a light blue green ( I'm color blind there) 35 Ford. Your show is improving every episode and I think people really like to see different car content. You guys and Scott offer real Canadian content.Really down to earth humor and a laid back style just like the era of the cars. I never thought a model T could hold my interest until Scott (CWMC) featured his. I really enjoyed the vintage and antique farm episode where you guys were threshing and driving steam tractors. Sorry for the babble.

    That truly is a lovely old car !!! I have always loved Model A's but in their original form, they are a bit "awkward" in modern day traffic. Most "modern" folk in their "digital rockets" are not amused or entertained by the old iron and just find it a "roadblock". This car can go anywhere. Did it have the overdrive ?? I once had a 48 Chevy Tudor with the overdrive. It was great on the highway !!
    Will the new owner be doing his own maintenance or will he be bringing it back to you guys??
    Looking forward to seeing what "turns up" next !! 🛠⚙🔧🔩🗜⛏🔨👍👍👍
