Jerry Campbell's 1948 Chevrolet Fleetline Aerosedan of Portland, Oregon. Campbell was a member of the Ramblers of Portland car club, and he restyled the Chevy in the early 1950s. Known for its distinctive blend of elegance and power, Campbell's meticulous customization earned national recognition, with the car being featured in Hot Rod Magazine March 1955. Later, the Aerosedan was purchased by Art Jones of the Aristocrats of Portland, who commissioned a more radical rebuild. This second iteration, showcasing bold and unique styling, was featured in Car Craft October 1959, continuing to capture attention and admiration.
