Vortec-Powered 1951 Chevrolet Custom Tin Woodie Wagon

This 1951 Chevrolet Styleline DeLuxe is a “Tin Woodie” station wagon that was refurbished and modified under prior ownership. Work consisted of repainting the body in red and installing a Mustang II-style front suspension, a 5.3-liter Vortec V8, and a four-speed automatic transmission. Details include brown leather upholstery, simulated woodgrain exterior accents, power rack-and-pinion steering, power front disc brakes, 17″ Eagle alloy wheels, air conditioning, AutoMeter gauges, power windows, a Pioneer audio system, dual exhaust, and custom headlights. This Tin Woodie wagon is now offered on dealer consignment with transferable New York registration in the owner’s name.
The exterior was repainted in red under prior ownership and features simulated woodgrain appliqués over steel paneling along with custom headlights grafted into the front fenders, chrome bumpers, stainless-steel trim, a side mirror, and a third brake light.
Eagle five-spoke 17″ alloy wheels are shod with 255/40 Goodyear Eagle HP tires at the front and 235/55 Dunlop SP Sport tires at the rear. The car is equipped with power rack-and-pinion steering and a Mustang II-style front suspension assembly. Braking is handled by power-assisted front discs and rear drums.
The cabin is outfitted with two rows of bench seats trimmed in brown leather upholstery that extends to the door panels. Appointments include air conditioning, power windows, a Pioneer audio system, a DVD player, black carpeting, floor mats, and stained-wood roof bows, door trim panels, and pillars.
The wood-rimmed Grant steering wheel frames AutoMeter carbon-fiber faced gauges and a white-dial clock is centrally mounted on the dashboard. The odometer shows 3k miles. Total mileage is unknown.
The rear cargo area is carpeted and has been fitted with color-coordinated side panels with speakers.
The 5.3-liter Vortec V8 features electronic fuel injection as well as a dual exhaust system. Power is routed to the rear wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission. The selling dealer reports that the oil and fluids have been changed in preparation for the sale.
