1950 Chevy Fleetline

 

 

Melanie Leiske, at 16, bought her own 1950 Chevy 2 Door Fleetline. The car was stock, with a rebuilt 6 cylinder engine. The car had new interior and sported a visor, fender skirts, headlight eyelids, and bluedot taillights. She spent the next couple of years with her limited spare time doing body work in preparation for paint.

Now, at 18 years old, she has added new radeial wide white wall tires and "Smoothie" wheels. She has completed the bodywork and block sanding the triple coat of epoxy primer. The car in the picture below now sports a top coat of deep black primer.

Now the finished product...in a shiny coat of Black Currant paint! She calls it "Plumb Crazy."
