Tim’s 1948 Chevrolet North Carolina Sheriff Car

Fun Stuff

Last week, we profiled our customer Tim’s dazzling 1968 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Two-Door Coupe. This week, let’s take a look at his other classic car that’s arguably even more engaging. This car is Tim’s 1948 Chevrolet Stylemaster 4-door Sport Sedan that has been transformed into a North Carolina Sheriff’s Car. Like the Cutlass, this vintage gem is no garage queen.

The Sheriff Car was originally built in Georgia and eventually ended up at The Hot Rod Shop of Woodland Hills, California. The owner of The Hot Rod Shop exhibited this car at LA-area car shows and it was often displayed alongside of Jay Leno’s classic cars. Tim purchased the car from the California shop in 2014. Tim tells us that he’s owned a few classic cars in his day, but none elicit the response that this car can. When Tim and his wife Kathy take a drive in the Sheriff car, heads turn, truckers honk their horns and people rush to take pictures. Not surprisingly, a crowd immediately gathers wherever they park this car.

Tim uses AMSOIL Z-Rod 10W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil for classic cars in the Sheriff Car’s engine.

Tim’s 1968 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Coupe

Fun Stuff

Every one in a while, a customer sends along pictures of their vehicle that stops us in our tracks. Seeing pictures of Tim’s two show-stopping collector cars was definitely one of those times. Tim has a 1968 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Two-Door Coupe and a 1948 Chevrolet Stylemaster 4-door Sport Sedan that is fashioned as a North Carolina Sheriff Car. For now, we’ll profile the Cutlass and showcase the Sheriff car in the coming days.

Tim purchased this Cutlass five years ago and is just the third owner. The previous owner had spent a decade restoring the car and as you’ll see below, the results are quite spectacular. Not only does this Cutlass turn heads, with an estimated 400 horsepower, it also gets up and goes. For Tim and his wife, cruising in their Cutlass is a favorite pastime. It is smooth, comfortable and has an unbelievable exhaust note. Tim uses AMSOIL Z-Rod 10W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil in the 350 Rocket engine.

  • 350 Rocket Engine, Bored 30-over – 355cu. in.
  • 650 Edelbrock 4BBL Carb
  • 468 Lift High Performance Cam
  • Flow Tech Headers
  • Turbo 350 Transmission – 3000 Stall Converter
  • 12 Bolt GM Positraction Differential
  • 3.08 Rear End
  • Custom Aluminum Racing Driveshaft
