Authentic, affordable and absolutely stylish, this 1940 Chevrolet Master 85 Business Coupe knows how to turn back the clock with true vintage motoring.
This pre-war Chevrolet makes a great first impression, and that all starts with the paint. The Kingston Gray factory-correct color paint was refreshed later in life and has a good mix of proper shine and aged-in classic. Great details, such as a full-length red pinstripe which coordinates so well with the red wheels and whitewall tires. The grille absolutely goes with the art deco style and it is part of a complete and classic brightwork package that includes the hood ornament, two-piece wheel trim, accessory fog lamps and front bumper overriders.

The time capsule presentation is continued inside with classic mohair fabric seats. It's part of a later restoration, and just like the exterior, it has the right amount of age and originality without staleness. Also, just like the exterior, there is more great art deco style. Lovers of vintage will love the full display on the dash. This is a business coupe with no seat, allowing for more storage for vacuum cleaners, encyclopedias or whatever was going door-to-door in this Chevy.
Chevrolet's inline-six was the backbone of the company for decades. It is great to see a year-correct 216 cubic-inch motor correctly presented in the engine bay. These were known for a mixture of durability and smoothness, and the way this motor fires up and runs upholds that feeling in modern times. The classic feel of the column-shifted three-speed manual transmission gives you proper control over this classic powerplant.
