Fleetline Specials were considered six passenger cars. 1950 Chevrolet Fleetline Special 2 door and 4 door models were the bottom of the line along with the 1950 Styleline Specials. 2 Door Fleetline Specials sold for $1403.00. With the 1950 Chevrolet 4 door selling for $1450.00, almost $50.00 more than the 1950 Chevrolet 2 door. 1950 Styleline Specials were priced exactly the same.
The stainless side trim and "Deluxe" script found on the 1950 Chevy Deluxe models was noticeably missing on the cheaper Fleetline Specials along with the chrome gravel guards. 1950 Chevy Fleetline Special rear fender gravel guards were made of rubber.
Other exterior trim found only on the Deluxe models were stainless windshield and rear window reveal moldings. The moldings outlined the windshield and rear window glass and followed the top curve of the doors and quarter windows on sedans and coupes. Fleetline Specials did not rate fender skirts, another cost savings item.

The 1950 Chevy Fleetline Specials above and below without fender skirts, stainless trim around windows/doors and rubber rear fender gravel guards did not convey this advertising message.... "New Chevrolet features smarter styling, improved performance and a really sensational new driving development."
