1:24 scale diecast 1948 Chevrolet Fleetline Aerosedan
Although my layout is O scale a few of my diecast automobile collection includes both 1:43 and 1:24 scale models. While these scales are not directly useable on an O scale layout they can sometimes be used with larger scale structures as a display. This particular model is well detailed including an opening front hood and engine details.
The Chevrolet Fleetline is an automobile which was produced by automaker Chevrolet from 1941 to 1952. From 1946 to 1948 it was a sub-series of the Chevrolet Fleetmaster rather than a series in its own right and from 1949 to 1951 it was a sub-series of both the Chevrolet Special and the Chevrolet Deluxe. In its final year it was offered only as a sub-series of the latter. The Fleetline was introduced late in the 1941 model year as a 4-door sedan. In 1942 a fastback 2-door "Aerosedan" was also offered. In 1947, the Fleetline made up 71.26% of Chevrolet's sales. The years 1949 through 1952 models, the fastback was the only model offered.
