Just a few decades after Chevrolet's founding in 1911, they introduced the Chevrolet Series AE Independence or simply the Chevrolet Independence in 1931. This model was only sold for that year and was the successor to the outgoing AD Universal Series. With many classic cars of the era, there came a time when you are at a crossroads on whether to restore the car or make it a hotrod. This 1931 Chevrolet Independence took the second option, by being turned into a hotrod by Haar Hotrods in 1975. Currently, the car features more modern upgrades to it. This 1931 Chevrolet Independence comes with just 5,400 miles on the new blueprint V8.
The 1931 Chevrolet Independence features a new two-tone exterior in the form of a magnificent brown and black palette. To all appearances, this car is a regular classic car. The front fascia features a massive fine mesh grille finished in chrome with the headlights resting on a chrome curved tie-bar. Right below it can be seen the 2-piece front chrome bumper. The hood is topped by a quail hood ornament also in chrome. Typical classic running boards painted in black are visible on the sides. A careful inspection will reveal a nod to Bonnie and Clyde on either side of the front doors in the form of white decals. The rear is host to a black-painted luggage carrier with chrome trimmings. As with the front bumper, the rear is also a two-piece bumper finished in chrome. The seller reports that the front features updated LED taillights, as well as the front. It sits on a set of chrome-painted American Racing 5-spoke wheels with new tires. The interior has also been redone. Which includes reupholstered seats, a tilt and telescopic steering column, new safety glass all around, a new headliner, and new radio and speakers. The interior is trimmed in brown to match the exterior.
Originally this 1931 Chevrolet Independence would’ve sported a 196 cu 3.2L 6-cylinder engine. This has been swapped with a new blueprint 350 cu V8 engine coupled with an automatic transmission. Keeping the temperatures optimal is a new Griffin aluminum radiator. The heater core has been rebuilt and convered to 12V to keep occupants warm. Other upgrades include a new limited-slip differential, battery, alternator, water pump, starter, and new ceramic-coated Ram horn manifolds. There's also a custom-built exhaust, and new power brakes have been added with new brakes and brake lines too.

1931 saw Chevrolet debut the Chevrolet Series AE Independence, to replace the 1930 Series AD Universal. Available as a two-door roadster, two-door coupe, four-door sedan and four-door tourer, this model was also produced in the United Kingdom under license by Bedford Vehicles, as the Bedford W-Series, and enjoyed an eight-year production run there. In fact, the 1931 Chevrolet AE Independence was produced in no less than nine assembly plants across the United States, as well as the aforementioned Bedford plant in the UK plus in Canada, Japan, South Africa, Argentina and Belgium, a testament to the popularity and versatility of the model. If this kind of vehicle is your pick, we’ve got a nice 1931 Chevrolet AE Independence up for grabs here from Nevada with a healthy 96,107 miles behind it. The owner reports that it runs and drives nice, which is a bonus. Cars like this can be considered investments too, as their value and desirability will only go up in time.
The Chevy El Camino showed the world in 1959 that a pickup truck didn’t have to be a body-on-frame machine with stodgy styling and uncomfortable riding dynamics. Instead, Chevy created a segment called the Coupe Utility, which was basically a seamless integration of cab, chassis and cargo area into one element. This led to a sportier, lower-riding and more comfortable vehicle that could still carry a decent payload in its cargo bed. After all, many buyers of such vehicles didn’t need heavy load-carrying per se, rather they wanted space. The El Camino also gained a reputation in the muscle car class, since it was available with some truly awesome V8s under the hood. Here, we have a 1960 Chevrolet El Camino that’s received a 383 Stroker under the hood, paired with a 3-speed automatic gearbox and a B&M shifter. With just 23,000 miles on its belt, this machine of multiple personas awaits its new owner in Dana Point, California.
The Chevrolet SSR LS is a uniquely American performance pickup that blends retro-inspired styling with modern V8 power and convertible flair. Designed as a lifestyle vehicle rather than a traditional work truck, the SSR combines a retractable hardtop roof with a short-bed pickup configuration, offering open-air driving alongside utility-focused features. This LS-trim example emphasizes comfort, usability, and factory-installed accessories while retaining the bold character that made the SSR stand out in Chevrolet’s early-2000s lineup.
Chevy’s second-generation or C2 Corvette has got to be the one with the shortest production run! It was made between 1963 and 1967, and just under 118,000 units were produced during this time. However, the C2 brought us many Corvette features such as pop-up headlamps, only V8s under the hood, and the Sting Ray badge. That’s why getting your hands on a C2 is a smart idea, albeit not one of the easiest. Happily, we have this 1964 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray Convertible for sale from Newtown, Pennsylvania. The car has just 5,764 miles on it and looks fabulous!
Ford’s Torino is a midsize car that was sold between 1968 and 1976. It also dabbled in the muscle car segment, with a prime example being this first-generation 1969 Ford Torino Cobra Jet. For buyers who wanted something tamer, there was a host of straight six or V8 powerplants, but the ultimate was the massive 428ci Cobra Jet V8. That’s what this Thousand Palms-based car offers, along with a Marti Report and just 21,000 miles on the clock. In fact, 1969 Cobras like this one are quite desirable due to their rarity since many Torino’s didn’t survive due to a variety of reasons. Perhaps they weren’t quite seen as preservation candidates way back then. Now, a car like this one isn’t a common occurrence, so if you wish to own this Cobra, contact us right now.
