The Chevrolet Corvette is regarded as the “great American sports car” but to the ones who know the small but yet mighty Crosley HotShot was America's first real postwar sports car. Today, while the Crosley name is familiar only with hardcore enthusiasts back in the day the brothers were known for quite a few technical feats, Crosley was the first to issue a Sport Utility Vehicle to the world, made the first all-steel station wagon, and was the first company to install four-wheel hydraulic disc brakes as standard equipment domestically. Now that you are up to speed with our small history lesson, it's time you feast your eyes on this lovely 1950 Crosley Super HotShot Convertible we have today. With 28,500 miles what you get is American ingenuity of the 50s, a small but well-engineered car, and a whole lot of history behind the wheel.
Exterior and Interior
Among all the land yachts and ginormous cars of the 50s, the little Crosley HotShot stood out and oozed character and charm. This 1950 Crosley Super HotShot Convertible is finished off in a lovely yellow exterior and it being a sports car means you'll find a single blue racing stripe running across the car. The racing stripe is interrupted with the addition of a spare wheel which is neatly presented in a blue cover with a Crosley hubcap in the middle. Speaking of wheels this car rides on its original hubcaps. The car also sports a black convertible top and new side curtains which is reported to be new. The interior on this 1950 Crosley Super HotShot Convertible is blue in color and made to match the racing stripe. A cool feature on this car is its dashboard which boasts 50s aesthetic and even has the racing stripe present inside the car. The interior is upholstered and in great shape with even new carpets reported.
Engine
The best way to sum up the tiny 44ci (0.7L) engine in this 1950 Crosley Super HotShot Convertible would be tiny but a whole lot of character. The engine in this car has reportedly been rebuilt less than 300 miles ago and makes for one very nippy and great handling car when pushed. The car also has seen a new motor mount reported as well as a new transmission mount and a new clutch on the 3-speed double clutch manual transmission. Great stopping power is brought to you by 4-wheel disc brakes. The car also has new wiring for the light switches to eliminate any electrical gremlins.
