    Thanks Ryan for the will it fire on the Buick!! A friend of mine was getting a car running by pouring gas down the carburettor, it backfired and made him jump spilling the fuel, the gas ignited and he was in flames, he was ok, just a few burns and went to a halloween party head to toe in bandages!! Love the Chevy and yes I would paint it (eventually)

    I grew up hearing stories about the old Chevy sixes that Dad owned in the forties and fifties,one thing about that car is that it has a radio,those were a two piece unit, I had one of those years ago but got rid of it,as sweet as that little Stovebolt six runs I would only fix the bad places on the body,give it a spray job paint job and drive it as is.

    With the black rubber stone guards, that is a 1949 Chevrolet Special Styleline Town Sedan. Special is the base model, Styleline is the notchback and Town Sedan is the two door.
    The front and rear bumper guards and the front license plate guard are standard equipment.

      @@IowaClassicCars no, 49 through 54. The rubber stone guards, along with the lack of body side, windshield and backlight mouldings and horn ring indicate the less expensive model.

    Go 1949, go !
    0:31 - congrats on rebuild of the carb, sorry about the backfire 1:31 - as far as I know the sedans were Stylelines, the fastbacks were Fleetlines. Both available in Special and Deluxe trim. Specials had blck rubber gravel shields on rear fenders and 3-spoke steering wheels, Deluxes had chromed gravel shields, side spear on front fender up to the doors with Deluxe lettering close to it and 2-spoke steering wheel. 3:02 - Felix wants to help with the cable 4:17 - push the pushbutton ! It's early automatisation ! No cranks, no levers, just a pushbutton, like modern people do

    That Chevy and I were both born in '49. By the time I started noticing cars in '56,most '49 model vehicles, were getting rusty as I grew up in So.Bend,In. My grandfather,who worked at Studebaker,drove his '50 Champion until 1973. Only had 45,000 miles but became too rusty to drive. He helped build it as he hung doors on the line.

The 49 is a cool looking vehicle 🚗 it is a little older than me ! LOL ! Skill you put out great videos & very informative ! Good luck on the sale of the Buick & the 49 ! 👍👍👍👍👍👍

    You've got a Styleline there. Had a '49 DeLuxe 4-door sedan and loved mine. It ran a
    later 235 and a 3 on the
    tree. Sold it when I got
    laid off in '81 to pay my
    bills. So what about that Buick? How much
    is it? Might be interested if the price is
    right. I'm surprised that
    it's not sucking air due to the carb leak. BTW,
    when and if you do the carb, clean the sediment bowl while
    you're at it. I was gonna tell you the shift
    pattern but you got it
    right. It's the equivalent
    of the 150 Chevy sold
    from '51-'57. Sorry Ryan, but I vote for a
    restore with a 235
    Power glide with an
    electric power steering
    box so that my girls
    could drive it easier. It
    really sucks being legally blind and unable
    to enjoy all those great
    old cars.
