Yeah buddy congratulations you got it =)
Well done 👍👏👏👏☺️
@@ericruud9328 - He’s got it right.
Had one of these as a 2-door in 1970; bought from a little old lady and it was in great shape. A really solid old car, but with the Powerglide, possibly the slowest car I ever owned. Even the old tube radio worked great, once it warmed up, and back then there was even something on the radio worth listening to. Just a very solid, well built car.
Awesome thank you so much for sharing your experience =)
The vintage of PowerGlide available in this car was non-shifting. It was meant to be operated like a Buick DynaFlow. Leaving the shift lever in the Drive position, the transmission started in the high range and remained there, letting the torque converter do all the work. The Low range was for engine-braking, but people would put it in Low for a faster getaway or when passing another vehicle. Depending on the rear gearing, Low could safely go up to 50 mph.
The first automatically shifting PowerGlide was introduced in 1953
I had no idea the Powerglide was made that way to start off. It had to be really slow. I noticed the shifter for this one is for a 3 speed automatic on the floor. That six would still be slow.
Power-slide transmissions. The worst.😮
@@notme123 Butit worked well.
The 1948 was still a 40's hold over. It still was built as if it had running boards and distinctly separate front fenders. They simply bent the body and doors out over it. The 1950 had flat sides from the headlights to the back wheels. In short it was the beginning of modern cars that you step out from the seat to the ground getting out.
1949 was actually the first year for the new body style, which lasted until 1952 (no 4 door Fleetlnes in 1952).
We all know the Pontiac and the Oldsmobile were a luxury model the 50 Chevrolet was the base brand more affordably that's why they sold more.
There are plenty of song's written about the rocket 88. My cousin still own's his high school car the 1950 Chevrolet Deluxe everything stock even the 6 volt battery.
My 1947 Chevy Coupe Stylemaster everything up graded from engine to brakes.
WYR: All of them. I like having different options for what car I'm driving.
That car looks amazing.
Ha ha ha ha nice great choices
I got my license in '63, and my first car was a black '50 Chevy 2dr Fleetline. 235 "Blue Flame"/Stovebolt 6 with 3 on the tree.
Sweet =)
I had a 1950 Chevy Fleetline two door back in the '90s. It was a great car and never let me down, I'm sorry I sold her.
Sweet =) 216 or 235 what did you like the most what did you like the least
It had the 216 cu. inch engine with three on the tree transmission. I liked her look and her reliability. I used her pretty much as a daily driver for a few years and except for a partially clogged fuel once, she never let me down. Even with the blocked fuel line I was still able to get home without a tow truck. There wasn't really anything I disliked about her. She wasn't fast or glamorous, just an all around good old girl. I really regret not keeping her. @@What.its.like.
Always liked the fleetlines on all GM models. My Uncle bought a 49 two door, pulled out the anemic 216, and dropped in a 383 stroker motor. He took me for a ride and it was fun. He overlooked that although zero to sixty was a non-issue, sixty to zero was. They had "Huck" brakes - before Bendix was used. I think 53 or 54 they went to Bendix. After blowing by a cop and getting a speeding ticket, he said "What rhymes with Huck"? Later that summer, a disk brake conversion was done and the ticket paid.😊
Awesome story thank you so much for sharing those incredible memories with us
My choice in the first choice would be the 50 Chevy, honestly for personal reasons, I found out way back in the day my grandfather had a 1950 Chevy before he got married. Second has to be the Olds.
Awesome choices I love those fastback cars =)
When my dad was 32 he bought his first car, a new 1950 Chevy Styleline with the powerglide. He liked it but the engine failed pretty quickly. The dealer claimed the factory had a problem where half of the pistons were made in different factories. They had to bore and rebuild the engine. My dad said it had noticibly more power after the rebuild, but then the transmission wore the bands. They rebuilt the transmission under warranty but when it started slipping again he traded it in on a 1955 Chevy. In the WYR I'd choose the '50 Fleetline and the '50 Pontiac Streamliner.
Thank you so much for sharing those memories I’m sorry your dad had so many problems with the car he must’ve got a bad one.. great choices
@@What.its.like. He said it was an interesting experience. Engineers came out to the dealer to inspect the engine and oversee the rebuild. He said the support was great.
7:00 I love the old "advertorial" films ...
I was so happy to find it it was really long it was about 12 minutes long maybe I will post a link to it in the description for anybody that wants to watch the whole entire thing
The rear fender openings are set up for fender skirts. Notice the tabs at the top of the opening.
The cooler in front of the radiator is for the transmission.
Love the 50, nice video!
My dad had a 50 Chevy, Styleline apparently. I found a photo of it. He told many stories driving it while dating my mother and once they got married. He replaced the Power Glide with a manual transmission for better performance. He had it until trading for a 56 Ford that he hated.
I see that your channel is growing.
Hopefully, next year you will get the hundred thousand award.
That’s the goal but really it’s just a number and a internet popularity contest.. I don’t get wrapped up in that.. I just want to have fun and find some cool cars eventually would love to cover them all especially that’s cars that never get talked about or the makes no one has heard those are my favorites =)
@What.its.like. That's the content I like is different vehicles, l owned many different types when I was young, but now l have Chevrolet vehicles which was never my first choice.
Chevy Fleetline, Oldsmobile. I had a 1948 Fleetline Aerosedan. I rebuilt the engine and trans and learned a lot about working on cars. Loved that car, but never got it to the point where I could drive it regularly. I decided to look for a GM fastback after a trip to Mexico City in 1972 where there were still some of these being used as taxicabs!
Great memory thank you so much for sharing it with us
Love that drama background music. That Fisher video was well preserved. Was it a film that was sent to dealerships?
Hahaha I’m not sure I was looking for a commercial and that popped up and I figured I’d show part of that it’s like 12 minutes long I just cut bits and pieces out of it
Gosh all those 1950 Chevrolet's are swell👌👌
Totally agree I like this so much better than the style line
WYR: 1950 Ford, and 1950 Olds. I'm not taking anything away from the Chevy - it's a great car and like I wrote in the chat - I love the fastback styling of GM from the era. I wish they would have sold the higher HP engine with the manual, but iirc, the higher HP engines were always attached to the auto in those day. Thanks for all your hard work, it's greatly appreciated. ~ Chuck
Man that olds is so nice plus it has that legendary rocket v8 something could be said for all the gm fastback designs.. I should have done all 5
Great choices
Glad you dig this episode =)
@@What.its.like. You are so right - it was the Rocket V8 that pushed me towards the Olds in the choice.
Dude…..you knocked it out of the park finding this Chevy infomercial ! Can you imagine being in that car when it rolls? No seat belts, etc, and nothing absorbing the energy. Yikes. You were the crumple zone😆. Nice report! Good, solid 1950s car…..and I am a GM guy, so it kills me to say…..I’d pick the 50 Ford over the Chevy. The Olds has my eye too.
Glad you dig this episode =) I cut that out of a really long infomercial it was almost 12 inches long it was really good content it’s just I didn’t want to show all of it on here definitely going to cover this car again when we do a two door hopefully you’ll be the special trim then can see the difference between the two trims
I totally love all the cars of this era! I would pick this one, and the Pontiac!😎
Awesome =)
Lovely car!
I own a 50’ 2 door styleline special with the 216 and 3 on the tree. Fun car to cruise the country roads with. Beautifully simple machine with the looks to go with. I did a few upgrades like disk brakes in the front, added turn signals and replaced the points and condenser ignition with an HEI.
Sweet thank you so much for sharing your car with us =)
My father had a gray, two-door '50 Fleetline DeLuxe. He wanted a green one, but the dealer only had gray ones. Take it or leave it. He kept it for 2 1/2 years and traded it in for a '53 Pontiac Chieftain. He said by the time he traded it in, it was shot.
I love the styling and practicality of these utilitarian, everyman cars. My dad had a 47, 54, & two 57 Chevys.
Which one did he like the most
I'm glad you asked. I looked at some notes I took when he was talking about his cars. He also owned a '51 chevy, which was his favorite. The '47 had transmission problems and the '54 threw a rod, both repaired under warranty@@What.its.like.
Sweet =)
Love that Futuramic!
Me too =)
I refer the '50's dashboard, the Dodge and the Pontiac. That inward curve in the back seatback allowed a center passenger to fit between more easily two outside passengers with a little more hip room, with the butt slightly further back than the others'. The Pontiac has an L-head straight eight that was silky-smooth and easy to work on, with good access.
Awesome video. As always, hard choices. Keep em coming!
=) glad you dig this video
My favorite Postwar GM design, and GM's first Postwar design. The Fleetline series lasted 4 years, replaced completely by the 3 box design. You mention the rear wheel bulge. It is pronounced, and shows how advanced the 33 Pierce Silver Arrow really was. It virtually single handedly predicted this look. That hood ornament is very Packard like. Studebaker already had a single one piece windshield in 47. Druthers: 50 Ford, and Oldsmobile Fastback, my favorite Fleetline model.
I had a '52. Jerked out the 235 in '55 and installed a 261. Used a B & M Hydro too. Great car. Sure do miss it now. Classic lines.
My Dad had a ‘50 Fleetline … That was a beautiful car. The biggest negative was it was slow as hell, but he liked it. He traded it for a brand new 283 ‘57 BelAir which he didn’t like nearly as much after the Powerglide went out on him at 18k miles.
I thought those GM fastbacks were gorgeous, especially the Caddy. Plus, those Caddys had that sweet OHV V8!
The Fleetline fastback is so beautiful, and I'm a Ford man.
MY dad had a few Chevy Fleetlines and other Chevy sedans. Tons of Chevy parts in the chicken coup slash ad on shed back in the day.
My first car in 1960 was a 1950 Chevy fleetline 2 door.
To me, pontoon styling, a bandwagon many manufacturers jumped on, was sort of a dead end. The 49 Ford with slab sides was the wave of the future.
The "bathtub packards" had slab sides but they took a step backwards with the 51s.
No they didn't. Bathtub cars (Nash, Hudson, Lincoln, Mercury, Packard) fell out of favor quickly. I have a 53 and it's fantastic.
@richruksenas5992 Learn to read. Slab sides remain with us to this day, but those pontoon bulges are what fell out of favor.
I dig the bathtub lead sled era there was some really cool cars in that genre
@@michaelwalston2438 Don't give me this learn to read internet crapola. The 51's were more modern looking than the cars they replaced, that's a fact. Slab sides by themselves don't necessarily make a design out of date, it's the whole package.
@@richruksenas5992Don't give your "safe in my easy chair" internet aggression, defending your individual opinion as if it were fact.
Hi Jay. Indeed, there is no cowl vent. Trunking had arrived, to bring air from behind the grille to the cabin. On the external rear view mirrors, they are aftermarket, clamping on to the edge of the doors. On the 235 engine, the one you picture is much later than 1950. The rocker cover with the two studs/nuts through the centre signifies the splash lubricated engines, pre 1954. Full pressure lubricated engines from 1954 up use small screws around the edge of the rocker cover. The same giveaway applies to the engine in the car, which is much newer than 1950, so you're correct about an upgraded powertrain. Also, there is a lot of difference between a 1950 Powerglide and one from, say the 1960's, in terms of efficiency and user friendliness, so it's no surprise that the original shifter wasn't compatible. And for all we know, the transmission might be a 3 speed anyway. Cheers.
Great information and insight thank you so much for sharing all of that
The first oil pressured rod bearing Chevy 6 was 1953.
Yes, in 53 they used the splash lubricated engines on the manual cars and the full pressure engines on the automatics. For 54, all engines were full pressure lubricated.
Really liked the inclusion of the ad. Back then, the goal was to sell products on the basis of convincing information instead of idiotic pirotechnics and Hollywood flimflamery. I also noticed that all the passengers were decently attired (I'm old enough to know that was the case back then, not something peculiar to ads). The gas mileage was about a quarter of what my Hyundai gets today.... but fuel was 19 cents a gallon so a fill-up could be had for a small bill and some change. Did I mention that a uniformed attendant filled the tank and always asked if you wanted an oil check? Oh, and don't forget those green stamps!
You bet when it’s possible to do that going to at commercials in =)
My father's first car was a 1950 Chevy like this one.
Sweet =)
I’ve never been a big fan of fast back cars, I think the fleetline design has way more style.
I have a 1950 Chevrolet Fleetline deluxe that I have begun a restoration on. It has a long ways to go.
So the engineers were aware of the rollover danger and that a collapsing roof (or no roof) as in a convertible meant virtually assured death for the occupants--but without seatbelts death was still a substantial possibility in an otherwise survivable rollover
I believe most "hardtop convertibles"(lacking B pillars) or "catalinas" gave no protection from roof collapse in a rollover
I remember the 4 door sedan 1950 Pontiac contained some kind of steel channel above the headliner running between the B pillar tops
It actually came down to marketing. Consumers until like the 1980s did not hold safety as a high priority, and the Tucker film brings this out. So if your market doesn't care, why should you? Sad but true.
This is the earliest car I remember our family having. For a while, there was something wrong with something ... every once in a while after a stop, our mother would pop the hood, jump out, fiddle with something right in front of the driver under the hood, like something mounted on the firewall, jump back in, and we'd be on our way again. It was just a second or two, as if something had to be pushed back in place or who knows what ... I was way too young to even realize something was broken or wrong, it was just what she did.
We towed a 12 foot (?) travel trailer that slept 6 -- dining table turned into a twin, couch was our parents, and they'd set up something above the couch. Icebox, propane (?) stove, sink, no shower or toilet.
Comments as I watch ...
We had a pale green two door with a column shifter, presumably three on the tree. I do not think there were rear vent windows, but there were front vent windows, and we loved them. For some reason, the door handle and window crank look very familiar, possibly because we kids were so much closer to them. The seats were pale green vinyl, and I seem to remember it wasn't a solid green, but like little mixed up dots of white and green, maybe just an artifact of being vinyl. No windshield or side window visors that I remember. I do remember the back seat side ashtrays. I don't remember anyone smoking in the car.
Sometimes called "gear locked".....linkage "A" 1st + reverse, with neutral position between, and linkage "B" with 2nd + 3rd. When shifting from 1st to 2nd, linkage A went to neutral so that 2rd gear could be engaged. Sometimes the manual gear lever inside moved through neutral on the way to second, but underhood, linkage "A" would remain in 1st gear, and the mechanism would lock up.
Fixed in seconds underhood. My first car was a '49 Chevy Fleetline!!
@@waynebrinker8095 Thanks! I've only seen a couple of semi-restored '50 Fleetlines, and without the owner around to ask. I remember she'd cuss a little, pop out, jiggle something, jump right back in, and not much more. Too young to even realize it wasn't normal, and it got fixed and she stopped doing it.
Thank you guys so much for sharing your experience with these cars greatly appreciate it
My dad had a '49 4 door Fleetline. The inner door panels(pretty part) on this car are not original-like you said they're "too nice" which is true. His was just covered cardboard that was like cloth. I have a '50 Olds 88 and its the same as my dads '49 Fleetline was.
The Great Race 2024 will go through several states, including Pennsylvania.
I’ll definitely have to go check it out that is something that I definitely want to do eventually I’m not financially ready to do that but I definitely would love to do that maybe in the next 10 years lol
I think the first yr for the 235 was 1954, only the 216 was offered in the 1950.
It’s in the advertisement 1954 was the first year for the 235 to be fully pressurized..
I was under the impression the 235 only came with the powerglide but I found out that the 216 also comes with the powerglide
I also looked up in the complete book of collectible cars by Richard M Lang worth it has both power plants listed from 1950
Hi Jay! See the USA in your Chevrolet! Those early GM fastback designs are GREAT! My Grandmother had a brand new 1951 Chevy. My Aunt had a 1953 Chevy. Seems like those big old heavy cars would be a little under powered with the venerable Stove Bolt 6. Would for sure want the larger one if I had one of these cars. WYR#1 is EASY. . .1950 Ford! My Mom and Dad had a two door sedan at one time and they LOVED that car! Mom was REALLY mad when Dad traded it for a new 1956 Ford pickup truck!! #2 Going OLDSMOBILE on this one! Kind of like the overall design, plus the powerplant should be more powerful on the Futuramic Oldsmobile!
Awesome choices thank you so much for sharing your experience with these cars
Hello Jay, Can you please tell where you found the color advertisement showing the yellow 1950 Chevy Panel truck? I have a 1950 series 3800 Panel truck and would love to find a copy.
Thanks for all the great content! one of my favorite channels!
I just googled 1950 Chevy ads but here is the link
Thank you so much glad you dig this channel =)

I'm _really_ digging the '48 ... classic "Zoot Suit Riot"-mobile.
Nice overview, Jay. I'll take the '50 Ford.
Sweet choice =)
Mucho antimonio,no tedrian que haber usado en lo mecanismos de los vidrios, igualmente un cochazo 🎥👏👏👏👏GM
Speaking of Harry Truman, If memory serves me correctly, his life ended the same time as Prime minister Lester Pearson in the summer of '72. My picks here would be the 1950 Dodge and Olds.
In the mid 70s my buddy had a '50 Chevy 2dr with a Pontiac GTO 400 engine, turbo 400 and a 4.56 posi, it was quite a bit quicker than the original 216/3 spd. To my knowledge the 235 was first used in the early Corvette in '53, pickups in '54, not sure if the cars were also '54, or '55.
The 235 came out earlier than that but it was used in trucks I didn’t believe that it was used in cars either but the complete book of collectible cars said it was and then I started looking through advertisement pieces which also backed up its existence but information is really hard to find because it’s not widely known that it was on offer and then I thought the 235 was just offered with the powerglide but you could get the power glide with the 216.. The 1954 version of the 235 was fully pressurized with insert bearings as well as the version that’s in the Corvette also is fully pressurize
@@What.its.like. Thanks! It's interesting that there was a larger version of the 216 I never knew existed. I was of course thinking about the full pressure 235 and the larger 261 truck engine. Great videos, thanks.
I would like to know on all GM cars 1949 to 1952 which model was more expensive? the Fleetline or Styleline
I really like the 🐢 turtleback jobs
Me too =)
Chevy offered the Fleetline longer than 1941 but it was until 1942 that they had the slanted roof
Nice fleetline, I like the Pontiac and Oldsmobiles ,especially the 4 doors. prefer the 41-48 Chevy dash painted wood finish.. I gets the Hemmings magazine and they advertise the Great race and the route they run every year. They recently sold a 1939 Buick convertible they ran in the race. They almost pattered the clock mounting to look like a Lincoln Zephyr center pod. The car has aftermarket vinyl instead of the cloth seats and door panels. Take the50 Dodge Wayfarer 1st, second the 50 Olds Futuramic fastback. V-8 power.
Awesome choices thank you so much for sharing all the information and insight as you always do greatly appreciate it
Pontiac streamline ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Did that car have a different transmission than the original put in it? I think almost everything was optional,not standard in those cars,radio,heater,defrost,even backup light if even available
GM's cheapo but there were a lot of them on the road in their day,I think they were thought by the public to have been lower quality than such as Dodge but they were faster--at least comparing the 3 on the tree models-1950 might have been the first year for the Powerglide which operated mostly as a one speed I think in the first year
Lighter in weight and I think thinner gauge sheet steel in it than the Pontiac
Pontiac a much better car-- also I think Pontiac had at least one more vacuum tube in its AM radio
Looks like it had a power-glide that was replaced with a three speed automatic. The original would have been column shift as Jay pointed out.
@@dougabbott8261According to the sales website, it has a TH350 3 speed transmission.
In 1960 High School class my friend John had a 1951 Chevy like this. He was always snapping the axle doing peel outs. What a jerk!
Great memories tho.. thank you so much for sharing
Did John like going sideways
Fast forward to get to the fleetline
Love these fastback cars that were so popular for the wyr id rather have the 50 Chevy and the 50 olds, nothing against the ford but it just looks plain and under sized like maybe they wanted a car for Europe
50 fleet line ,Olds
My first choice, the Dodge Wayfarer which was my first car. My second choice, the Olds Rocket 88.
Sweet choices =)
I remember My dad showing me one of these cars when I was a kid, He called them a beetle Back , he was not too impressed with the looks of them. i thought they looked kind of cool, Dad didn't like them, He said it made them look old style.
My dad had a '52 Chevy and a '53 Deluxe.
Sweet what did he think of those
@@What.its.like. He used to race the Custom Deluxe with a straight six. It was his high school car
"Torpedo" style cars or Pontiac "Streamliner" had that fastback rear appearance-I think 1950 was the last year Pontiac Streamliner was made and somewhat rare
I will prefer the shoebox,
Sweet =)
The Hemmings Great Race is held in June every year. So, June 20th or thereabouts will take place again..
I will definitely have to check that out next year I probably won’t race next year but I think it would be really cool to do an episode on it
3:21 Tommy Chong (to Cheech): "It's, like, the same thing, only different!" 😁
Hahaha ( chongs voice ) right on man
I have to go with Pontiac 👍
Ford definitely 2nd 😂.
Happy Motoring ✌️🤠
Sweet choices =)
I choose the Dodge. They had the right balance of chrome/glass/body styling.
Sweet choice =)
WYR1. Dodge, just because MoPar is my heritage, 2. Olds, like those basset hound eyes!
Sweet choices =)
Hey I love the fastback styling but some people say it looks like a dog taking a giant poop !
Haha haha =D never heard that before
Ha! Yeah, I can see that!
14:08 No Cowel Vent !! ?? !!
That seems hard to believe!
The fresh air came in through the long tubes going from the grill to the firewall. The passenger side contained the wrangle valve for heat control.
Chuck Berry, No Particular Place to Go
Yeah buddy hot88 just beat you for title
3 model lines, Styleline, Fleetline and Bel Air hardtop
Sweet choices
Which Car Was More Expensive , the Fleetline Or Style side?
I have had 5 fleetlines
Awesome =)
That guitar sound can only be Jerry Reed, EASTBOUND AND DOWN.
No particular place to go Chuck Berry
It has a later engine. 1954 or newer that is a non original transmission cooler. Don’t like the 12 volt conversion. They had adequate power for the time.
Hilarious that Chevy was bragging about pillar rigidity when later it would come out with the '55 Nomad and friends that had totally unsafe collapsible pillars, at least the A pillars.
Love Chevies of that era but don’t care for the fastbacks. They are too hard to see out the back when parking or backing up.
I'll take the Ford and Olds. However, the Chevy and Pontiac are nice too.
Sweet choices
In ‘50, Ford was still trying to pawn off that obsolete flathead … Olds had a wonderful OHV V8 that was among the envy of the industry (except for Cadillac!) …
1960 Dodge Wayfarer
1950 Pontiac
Yeah the interior has been updated.
Awesome choices thank you so much I thought so it looked too modern
Chebie actually experimented with the fleetline roofline on 53/54 and a 1957 chevy.
Muy conservado!!
WYR1: Wayfarer, but if the Studebaker Champion had been in the mix, that would be the choice.
WYR2: Not a big fan of the GM fastbacks of the period. The Olds takes us a bit more upscale, and in that price class I'd be looking at the Studebaker Commander or the Kaiser Virginian.
Sweet choices
Not a fan of the gm fastbacks?? I've never heard those words in that sequence before
@@What.its.like. There's something about the rear visibility, the C-pillar isn't so much a pillar as it is a wall. The rear window is not angled to allow adequate rear view, but it will catch plenty of frozen precipitation.
The notchback appears to be a lot easier to live with.
Apparently, buyers thought so, too, or the fastback would have survived the 1953 redesign. Ford designers considered a fastback for '49, but it never got past the clay model stage.
Turn signals were not mandatory until 1952.
Great to know Buick was the first in 1939
I'll take the Ford, Chevy, Pontiac, and Olds. Someone else can have the Dodge.
Dodge is what you block the garage door with so thieves can't break in 😂👍

If you squint and imagine the car lowered a Chevy Fleetline 2dr has a slight Bently Continental look, for about 1.5-2% of the Bently price today :) WYR: Ford, Olds.
Haha great choices =)
That interior is definitely not original. The panels would had been cloth and maybe vinyl on the bottom.
That’s what I was thinking
😊
Looks like a 65 Marlin
The 67 was my favorite.
Great car, but these stickers... not so much. That's only in my opinion.
The interior is not original. How do I know? I had a 50 Chevy 2 door Fleetline.
Awesome it didn’t look original looked too new
@@What.its.like.definitely would not have has carpet on the door panels.
Well, whata piece of crap! The rear window popped out in the rollover test! LOL I'm not a real fan of the 4 door GM fastbacks... but... but... GM really had it's ducks in a row when it came to design details. Little touches like the chrome backers on the door handles, that have hash marks. Cars now don't seem to have that attention to detail. I know that's not original paint, but I wonder if it's the original color. I hope so. It's beautiful! WYR: 1) My bias is showing... the Ford 🙂 2) The Olds! Wow!
on question 1#3,
Sweet =)
50 Ford and 50 Olds
Sweet choices =)
That olds is really something but something could be said for all of them.
The 1950, introduced 235cid(truck engine)powerglide trans(no not the gay) 😳
