Can Anyone Share Vector Art of a 55 Chevy Coupe?

[Ric Taylor]

I have searched the internet unsuccessfully.

Thanks,

I have one that I drew up but at the moment can't figure out how to put the file on here for you.

It was drawn to be engraved small so if you make it too big it won't look good.

As a former owner of a '55 Chevy I do not recall any coupes being in the line. There was possibly a 2 door hardtop.

I had the two door sedan.

I'm not big on Cars and considering I'm in Australia, I rearly see American Cars or even know what they are. Anyway if there's something on the following thumbsheet that I can help you with let me know. All the images are EPS (vector). I've used a few of these of customer jobs for classic car clubs of Hip Flasks so they engrave very well at any size.

Many thanks, Rudy. I didn't see what I'm looking for, but I'm sure that website will help with many other projects.

I appreciate the file, Joe. I really need art for a coupe, but the convertible may be useful for another idea I have.

Mike,

There were some '55 coupes built, but they are very rare today. There was about (if I remember correctly) 50 cars built called Salesman's Coupe. They were built for traveling salesmen, and instead of a back seat they had a shelf installed where the salesman places his sample cases and briefcases. My brother-in-law has one that he has been racing for about 30 years. Pics of his car are attached. He is the reason I'm looking for the artwork.

Regards,

Ric

Hi Steven,

I zoomed in on the image as best I could until it became really fuzzy, but #11 looks like it might be a Chevy. Not sure of the year or model, though. I would appreciate it if you could share that one.

Many thanks for your help,

Ric

That is the two door sedan like I had. It had a back seat. Mine was what they called the 210. Just below the Bel Air.

Hi Ric,
The site I mentioned is not all that user friendly - so I tried to narrow it down a bit. Try here: the-blueprints DOT com/blueprints/cars/chevrolet/page/2/

Thanks Rudy,

I didn't see that one the first time I looked. The 55 Bel Aire Sport Coupe is getting close to what I'm looking for.

Opps sorry Ric, I didn't subscribe to this topic so missed your request, so hope its not too late. I save it in a Corel file at version 9 just in case I also added 6 & 7 cause they looked similar. Hope they help. I've subscribed to this topic now so if you need others... no probs.
