A time capsule when people were wondering how long they might need to stay in their bomb shelters. The Korean War was coming to an end, thus giving manufacturers a bit of a break to innovate. Early 50’s cars carried style and some, like GM, carried a bit more invention especially with over-head valves in their engines. Times were a-changing, new styles were coming, new power too. The early 50’s were an end of an era of hard-core practicality and purpose. Cars simply had a job to do and as the number one seller, Chevrolet and their Stylelines lead the way. Finding a time capsule of an auto is a bit of rarity, having an original beauty the really performs, that to begs to the few.
