When you google 1918 Chevrolet ,in the images is a touring car with 3 apples on the running board, I can get the apples but would really like the purple paint color, maybe a vcca member car. I'm a couple months from paint and reassembly and would like to end up with a car that looks like that !

My 1918 490 is black exterior and interior. Canhardly tell it from a Model T. At least that is what most people that see it think it is. Yes even if it has Chevrolet Bow-Tie emblems.

My 1916 490 has been mistalen for a model T many times. I just say look at the badge on the front!

Get used to most people who like your "Model T" happens all the time. Appreciate those that pay enough attention to recognize it is a Chevy. Reward the few that know it is a 490 with a smile and positive comment or three.
