The build was started in or around 1999 . All of the body work was done by Mike Hastings Hot Rods of Sherma, TX. The rest of the build was done by Grubb's Motorsports in Garland, TX and many other local shops who did interior, etc. This is the car before. Looks like a pretty solid body with little or no rust. With the help of several different shops, the car became a great custom show worthy car. Click here to enjoy the video of this 1951 Chevy Fleetline Fastback Custom.

The owner of the 51 was at a car show in Salin, Kansas back in 2009 and was lucky enough to run into Steve Stanford, one of the country's top automotive illustrator and designer in the country. He actually had Steve do a rendering of his car which included a 54 Chevy which shows how the modified 51 looks like a 54 that Steve had done in the past. Below you will see the Stanford drawing that was done for our seller. This is a prized possession of his.The car also appears on a site belongingto Rik Hoving, editor in chief of Classic Car Chronicle.
