LOTX X X 1970 Chevrolet Camaro

Z28 Replica Equipped with a 383 CI Stroker V8 Engine and 700R Transmission

LOTF 2 41

Page 5: From the Lynn Wardley Collection

Chevrolet created an ageless classic in the second-generation Camaro Z28, whose sleek fastback silhouette, upturned rear spoiler, Kamm-back tail, dual Sport stripes and optional split-bumper Rally Sport front styling combined to establish more than a passing resemblance to the Pete Brock-designed Daytona coupe of FIA World Championship fame. No surprise, then, that more than 40 years after its debut, the second-gen Camaro has become a favorite with gear heads who appreciate the car’s built-in performance image. Case in point: this custom 1970 Camaro. Based on a solid body finished in beautiful custom Black paint with White Sport stripes, it has been cosmetically upgraded with Z28 badging and the famous split-bumper Rally Sport front end, and fitted with mirror-polished American Racing Classic wheels staggered front-to-rear and wrapped in low-profile Goodyear performance radials. A huge dash-mounted tach, B&M shifter and brand new sound system highlight the fresh custom two-tone Black and Grey interior, while the cowl induction hood hides a 383 CI stroker small block V-8 fed by a Holley double-pump 4-barrel carburetor and backed by a B&M-shifted 700R automatic transmission. The resulting demeanor and snarling exhaust note is balanced by the extra stopping power of upgraded front disc brakes.

1967 Cadillac Deville Convertible429 CI Engine with Factory Air Conditioning on 22” Wheels

By 1967 the Cadillac DeVille had been a mainstay of the Cadillac lineup for the almost 20 years that saw the model go from the curvaceous post-war look to the wild fins of the Fifties to a sleek, chiseled cruiser of enormous proportions. Four versions of the DeVille were offered in 1967, including the ever-popular 2-door convert-ible. The 429/340 HP engine returned, still with the Turbo Hydramatic as standard equipment, and buyers could choose from over thirty options to personalize their new status symbols. The Grecian White 1967 DeVille convertible offered here has all the bells and whistles one would expect from a Cadillac, including a Black leather interior with power front seat, factory air conditioning, padded dash, power steering and brakes, power windows and locks and a Black power soft top. In addition to a Pioneer CD player, this low-riding vintage DeVille rolls on 22-inch wire wheels wearing Pirelli P Zero tires.

1955 GMC 5 Window Pickup2000 Grand National Roadster Show 1st Place Class Winner

LOTF 2 4 3

Page 9: From the Lynn Wardley Collection

The product of a 3-year full custom build, this stunning 1950 GMC 5-window pickup won over 90 awards in its brief 2½ year show career, including many Best of Show, Best Paint and Best Upholstery honors and culminating in First Place in the Radical Modified Pickup class at the 2000 Grand National Roadster Show. Built on a boxed 1955 GMC frame, the chopped and sectioned body incorporates shaved door handles, a handmade grill shell and billet grill with recessed LED parking lights, frenched headlights and LED tail lights, a rolled and louvered rear pan and a unique glass tailgate insert with logo. Beneath that glowing façade is a full race suspension using Mustang II power rack and pinion steering, Heidts 2-inch lowered front spindles, Firestone air bags, GM disc brakes and KYB shocks, all installed by the previous owner, whose 20 years of experience have netted him 16 SCCA National titles. Other underpinnings include a custom gas tank and a 150 lb. air compressor with cooling fan. Outfitted with air condi-tioning, remote door locks, center console, bucket seats, tilt column and full gauges and controls for the air suspension system, this all-Yellow show stopper also has power to spare in its balanced and blueprinted 315 CI 1959 GMC bus engine, which uses a ported and polished head, special pistons, an Iskendarian 270-degree cam, triple 45 MM Weber carbs on a hand-polished manifold and handmade stainless headers with Jet Hot coating. This impeccably-finished Jimmie custom is truly one of a kind.

1963 Dodge Polara 500Original and Unrestored with 11,500 Miles

Page 11: From the Lynn Wardley Collection

Dodge stylists were working overtime in the early 1960s to keep up with ever-changing market demands. Thinking they had a lock on the coming trends, Dodge proceeded with their plan to downsize the corporate fleet, but intelligence from within the competition revealed that the full-size family car was still very much in demand, and the Polara 500 was the answer. In addition to lengthening the wheelbase for more rear leg room, the 1963 Polara’s front end styling was more integrated and the general silhouette much more streamlined, as demonstrated in this original and unrestored 500 hardtop finished in Ivory with Aqua accents and the original matching two-tone bucket seat interior. Showing a believed-accurate 11,500 miles, it uses the new-for-1963 383 CI Magnum V-8 in front of a push-button controlled Torqueflite automatic transmission and is optioned with power steering and brakes. Cragar SS wheels and BF Goodrich T/A radials lend a “Day Two” look to this very nice Mopar.

LOTF 2 4 5

Page 13: From the Lynn Wardley Collection

This screaming Yellow 1947 Chevrolet Loadmaster 5-window cabover is a great find for the collector looking for a unique and eclectic hauler. Loaded with vintage charm in such features as the color-matching windshield visor, rooftop running lights and custom pinstriping, it is also powered for maximum hauling capacity with a mid-mounted Cadillac 500 CI engine backed by a Turbo Hydra-Matic transmission and late model GM rear end. The custom interior’s leather seats, fold-down console and air conditioning make for a comfortable long-haul ride made even better by virtue of Air Ride suspension and power steering and brakes. There is plenty of utility to go along with this truck’s style and creature comforts; the cargo bed is a full 18 feet long and includes a Warn winch, a rear cab guard complete with warning and loading lights, fold-down D-rings, diamond plate trim and four storage compartments.

1966 Lincoln Continental ConvertibleMeticulously Maintained Luxury Car with Two Owners Since New

LOTF 2 4 6

Page 15: From the Lynn Wardley Collection

Designer Elwood Engel cemented his legacy with the 1961 Lincoln Continental, which he had originally drafted as the new design for the 1958 Thunderbird. Ford president Robert McNamara instructed Engel to add two doors to his design and lengthen the wheelbase, creating the basis for the new Continental. Engineers changed the rear door design to open forward for easier ingress, establishing the new Continental’s most distinctive feature. The car’s success eventually saved the Lincoln Division from being dropped by Ford management, who kept the “suicide door” concept intact through the 1969 model year with few major revisions. This handsome Venetian Yellow 1966 Continental embodies all the qualities that made it one of the most influential automobiles of the 1960s. A two-owner example with Black interior and top, it is in exceptional condition inside and out, having been meticulously maintained and serviced since new. Loaded with standard features that were options on lesser cars, it is powered by the new-for-1966 462 CI V-8 and includes air conditioning, power steering and brakes, power top and power windows. With its stunning arrow straight body hand polished to a gleaming finish, this Continental is ready to be enjoyed.

Another great vintage Ford Resto Rod from the Wardley Collection, this 1935 sedan delivery is the product of a freshly completed build that began with an all-Henry Ford steel body including steel fenders, features that are coming under increasing demand by collectors of vintage Blue Oval machinery. Its Black-on-Black color scheme is another favorite with rodders, who will also appreciate the contrasting original-style chrome front and rear bumpers and exterior trim, custom Coys Black Chrome 5-spoke wheels and radial tires. Chrome and polished aluminum dominate the engine compartment, where a show-prepped 350 CI 4-barrel Chevrolet small block resides, backed by a 700R automatic transmission and a beefy Ford 9-inch rear end. The tastefully finished Black leather interior is well-outfitted with VDO gauges, air conditioning, polished padded-rim billet aluminum steering wheel and tilting column, billet door handles and window cranks and a power driver’s seat.

1995 Dodge Viper Hennessey Venom 600Hennessey Serial #3 520/635 HP V-10, Motor Trend’s March ‘96 “Raw Power” Cover Car

LOTF 2 4 8

Page 19: From the Lynn Wardley Collection

19

The cover car and winner of Motor Trend’s “Raw Power” competition featured in the March 1996 issue, this is one of 300 Black Dodge Viper RT/10 convertibles produced in 1995 and the third transformed by Hennessey Performance to Venom 600 specifications. The comprehensive Hennessey Venom 600 package gives the Viper RT/10 a bump in bore and stroke of .060 and .80 inches respectively for an increase in displacement to a whopping 520 cubic inches. Add a 5140 steel crankshaft, 4340 billet-steel connecting rods, 10.0:1 compression forged aluminum pistons and a roller rocker camshaft, and the result is a pavement-shredding 635 horsepower with a 655 ft. lbs. torque, all of it handled by a 6-speed manual transmission and an upgraded 3.54 Positraction rear end. Capped with a Hennessey double bubble hard top, the car includes a full soft top and cockpit cover, AM/FM cassette, air conditioning and 5-point safety harnesses. In Motor Trend’s words, this unique Viper is “raw, almost unnerving, and completely glorious.”

If it hasn’t been smoothed, modified, custom fabricated or otherwise massaged with skilled and caring hands, you won’t find it on this steel-bodied 1948 Ford, which has been given the full custom treatment in classic Lead Sled style. A multiple show winner and feature car in the March 2001 issue of Street Rod Magazine, it gets full marks for its outlandish all-Orange color scheme, smoothed and welded bodywork and high-performance underpinnings. Its custom tubular frame uses a Heidts rear axle with dual coil springs per side and inboard rear disc brakes, and is home to a fully turned-out 4.6L/335 HP Lincoln Mk VIII V-8 engine with automatic transmission. Suicide doors open to the sight of a fully custom-upholstered interior offering well-bolstered seats, a padded leather wheel on a tilt column, billet alu-minum switchgear, custom instruments, console with shifter and controls for power windows, Vintage Air and a Pioneer sound system.

1948 Mercury Coupe Street RodAll Steel Street Rod Boasting a 400 CI Engine and Custom Interior

LOTF 2 71

Although the Mercury line of cars had their origins in contemporary Fords, by the post-war years the marque had established its own distinct identity as the step-ping stone to Lincoln, largely through the strong marketing efforts of the J. Walter Thompson advertising agency. For the money, there was nothing else that could beat the corporate flathead V-8 engine, and the Merc has been a hit with the go-fast crowd ever since. This all-steel stock-bodied 1948 Mercury 2-door coupe is a real head-turner thanks to its luminescent Yellow paint job, nose-down stance and classic chromed wheel/baby moon rolling stock. Tweed-style Grey upholstery contributes a decidedly vintage feel to the Merc’s custom interior, which also incorporates a leather wrapped billet steering wheel on a tilt column, woodgrain dash insert with period-look White-face gauges, custom console with CD player, air conditioning and “Mercury” embroidery on the backs of the bucket seats. A 400 CI Chevy small block, 700R automatic and Ford rear end supply the power.

1962 Chevrolet Impala SS ConvertibleFrame-off Restored 409/409 HP with Correct Heads and a T-10 4-Speed

LOTF 2 7 2

Every muscle car aficionado has his or her personal preferences, but all can agree that the early Sixties 409-powered Chevrolet Impala Super Sports were some of the coolest muscle cars ever built. This genuine 1962 Impala SS convertible not only perfectly proves that point, it does so with the added benefit of being freshly restored in frame-off fashion with zero miles since its completion. The results are awe-inspiring: the car’s sheet metal is laser-straight and brilliantly finished in Tuxedo Black with a matching SS Strato bucket seat interior complete with the original radio, column-mounted tach and a Black convertible top. The heart of this Impala is the legendary Turbo Fire 409/409 HP engine, which is correctly fitted with #3814690 heads, dual 4-barrel carburetors, high-lift solid lifter cam and lightweight valves and mated to a heavy-duty Borg Warner T-10 Top Loader 4-speed. Power brakes and a period-correct 6-cell battery complete this classic 409 SS.

It began life as a 1970 BH27 Barracuda V-8 convertible equipped with the G code 318/230 HP 2-barrel V-8 and Torqueflite automatic; certainly a nice machine in stock configuration, but with the right pieces and skilled execution, it has been transformed into an imposing street machine that get looks wherever it goes. The 318 is gone, having given way to a 340 CI small block topped with the famous Six Barrel intake and carburetion setup that is a linchpin of muscle-era Mopar lore. Pack-ing triple 2-barrel carburetors on an aluminum intake manifold, chromed air cleaner, Mallory high performance ignition system, tube steel headers, dual exhaust and cast finned aluminum valve covers, the car retains a B&M console shifted automatic transmission and includes power steering and front disc brakes. Its bright Yellow paint is contrasted by Black-spoked Coys wheels and a Black soft top and interior featuring bucket seats and console.

1938 Ford Sedan DeliveryFrame-on Restored with Original Steel Body, Flathead V-8 and Running Gear

LOTF 2 74

Page 27: From the Lynn Wardley Collection

27

The serial number stamped into the frame by the factory speaks to the origins of this very rare 1938 Ford sedan delivery, which has been the subject of a frame up restoration using all original steel body and fenders. Its newer Tan over Brown paint still shows well, accenting the curvaceous forms that hinted at the evolution-ary later models that were already in the works; fans of pre-war vintage Fords will also like the matching two-tone artillery wheels fitted with bright trim rings and center caps. Tucked inside the engine compartment is the famous flathead V-8 engine accompanied by the standard 3-speed manual transmission and trailing-arm rear end. The cabin is in keeping with the car’s utilitarian nature: pleated velour upholstery and vinyl trim, a banjo steering wheel, rubber floor mats, windshield wipers and a below-dash heater.

LOTF 2 75

Page 29: From the Lynn Wardley Collection

Prompted by pressure from General Motors and other competition, Ford began to move toward cleaner styling in the mid-1930s, but nothing they produced back then could compete with this mouthwatering Resto Rod. A freshly completed full-custom frame-off build, it has been chopped and dropped just enough to add a streamlined flare to its classic silhouette, and then cloaked in gorgeous Black paint accented with Coys Black Chrome spoked wheels. Red leather and ostrich hide decorate the seats and inside panels of the roomy cabin, which incorporates new glass, power driver’s seat, a leather-wrapped billet aluminum steering wheel on a tilt billet column, billet handles and controls, air conditioning, power windows, VDO gauges in a custom panel and fitted Red carpeting. A 383 CI Chevrolet stroker engine with dual quads and aluminum heads cranks the horses through a 700R automatic transmission to a Ford 9-inch rear end.

A modern rendition of the classic “lead sled” custom, this 1950 Mercury Sedan has been chopped, channeled and sectioned, and features shaved door and trunk handles, frenched head, signal and tail lights, recessed antenna mount and full fender skirts. Two-tone Pastel and Robin’s Egg Blue accentuate the Merc’s rounded contours for maximum visual impact. Checker-patterned Blue velour inserts contrast with White upholstery inside the full-bore custom interior, where passengers are treated to 1958 Thunderbird bucket seats, a full-length post-war styled White-face Classic instruments, power windows, air conditioning, a tilt steering column and billet controls. Power comes from a completely rebuilt .030-over Chevrolet 383 CI stroker V-8 based on a 4-bolt main block and equipped with Dart heads, finned aluminum valve covers, Holley aluminum intake with throttle body fuel injection and a vintage Cadillac air cleaner. A Lokar-shifted 700R automatic transmission transfers the horses to a custom built 3.73 Ford rear end, with power rear air shocks and Mustang front disc brakes for added control.

33

Built on a stock frame with an all-steel body and cargo bed, this 1932 Ford Pickup is distinguished by its two-tone Black over Copper paint scheme and Hi-Boy style rolling stock comprising staggered front-rear tire sizes and painted steel wheels with bright trim rings and center hub caps. The radiator shell, grille and louvered hood are also 1932 pieces, but they enclose a 1966-vintage Ford 289 CI small block bored .030-over and incorporating a Holley dual-float 4-barrel carburetor, finned aluminum valve covers, chromed tube headers, a new water pump, high torque starter and gear drive and GM single-wire alternator; a C4 automatic transmission modified with a shift kit backs up the Ford powerplant. The cab is simple, clean and straightforward; a padded competition-style steering wheel, tilting GM steer-ing column and Lokar shifter are featured along with new upholstery, an overhead console with lighting and Classic White-faced gauges surrounded by pinstriped accents.

35

Jaguar’s distinguished heritage of producing sporting open-air cars goes back to the first SS100 built in 1936, but it would be 14 years from the last E-Type convert-ible in 1974 until the introduction of the XJS in 1988 before they would return to that genre. Presented in the classic combination of Signal Red with a Black soft top and Saddle leather interior, this rare XJS convertible moves under the power of Jaguar’s turbine-smooth fuel injected 5.3L/262 HP SOHC V-12 engine mated to a 3-speed automatic, a pairing that when combined with the convertible’s more rigid frame, all-independent suspension, power steering and power disc brakes gives it superb road manners. The XJS interior is standard Jaguar fare: plush anatomically designed seats, leather and burled walnut trim, tilt steering, cruise control and factory radio-cassette player. Garaged for many years, this very clean XJS comes complete with the original tool kit and owner’s manual.

37

Factory steel, expert workmanship and a classic formula combine to make this 1932 Ford roadster a great choice for dedicated Blue Oval show-and-go enthusiasts. A freshly completed frame-off build, this ’32 roadster gets its aggressive nose-to-the-ground stance through the use of a four link-suspended dropped front I-beam axle and staggered-size Coys chrome wheels wrapped in sticky low-profile Toyo tires. A bored and built 350 CI Chevy small block V-8 equipped with headers and dual exhaust dishes out the horses through a 3-speed automatic to a Ford 9-inch rear end. The Ford’s timeless shape is at its best in this example’s strikingly reflec-tive Black paint, which is perfectly accented by the chrome bumpers and grillework and the Red leather interior. In addition to its pleated seat and door panels, the cockpit is finished with custom fitted carpeting, a leather-wrapped billet steering wheel and polished billet column, White-face gauges and a hidden CD player with remote control.

There is more than a bit of the classic Fifties/Sixties gasser at work in this very rare 1933 Willys sedan delivery. Built with a customized steel body on a Willy World tubular frame, the car boasts a Weiand-supercharged Chevy small block V-8 topped with twin Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetors and cranking a dyno-tested 510 HP through a 700R automatic transmission to a beefy Ford 9-inch third member. Eagle Alloy wheels mounting Hoosier Pro Street tires – narrow up front and massive out back in drag strip fashion – work in conjunction with Air Ride suspension, a Mustang II front end and 4-wheel disc brakes for sure-footed handling and stopping. The Willys’ basic interior has been replaced with a show-quality interior blooming in custom Red leather with ostrich inserts, fitted carpeting, power doors, windows and tailgate, a custom dash, billet steering wheel and tilt column and air conditioning.

Serial Number 1 of only three built by Lister of North America, this 1993 Chevrolet Corvette outperformed both the Callaway Speedster and the ZR1 in comparison tests thanks to its Vortech supercharged 383 CI engine, which uses the original block, Lunati steel crank and rods, Air Flow Research heads and many other carefully chosen internal and external performance pieces to raise output to over 600 horsepower with the durability to match. Backed by a 6-speed manual transmission and a Doug Ripple Motorsports 4.09 rear end and incorporating ZR1 4-wheel disc brakes, the car offers astonishing performance while maintaining street manners. In addition to a cover feature in Corvette Fever Magazine, it has also been featured in Vette, Motor Trend, Super Chevy and V-8 Power magazines. It was repainted 3 years ago in Yellow Pearl over the factory Yellow for a show quality finish and is perfect for any parade or car show.

LOTS12 9

Page 43: From the Lynn Wardley Collection

43

This early production 1947 Mercury convertible has been given the full custom treatment in both the cosmetic and mechanical departments, the most obvious modifications from a visual standpoint being its chopped top and the replacement of the two-piece flat-glass windshield with a single piece curved unit that confers a much cleaner look. The first hint at the car’s performance is an auditory one, the result of the whine emitted from the Weiand supercharger feeding a compressed charge to the Chevrolet 350 CI small block, complete with tube headers and dual exhaust, which replaces the Merc’s original flathead engine and actuates a Ford rear end through a 700R automatic transmission. Dressed in ever-popular triple Black and riding on Coys Black Chrome wheels with high-performance radials, it offers shaved door handles and chromed bumpers and trim, an all-leather interior with billet steering, custom dash with VDO gauges and a Haartz cloth convertible top.

This rare 1932 Ford sedan delivery was built using an original Henry Ford steel body as a starting point. Chopped and adorned in custom Yellow paint, it retains a touch of the traditional in its chromed bumpers and bright trim pieces such as its original-style outside mirrors and headlight assembly, but it’s almost full-on custom all the way from there. Staggered-size Coys Black Chrome wheels, all-new low profile tires and a dropped Pete & Jake’s four-link front axle give it an aggressive attitude, one backed up by a powertrain that comprises a 327 CI Chevy small block, 350 Turbo automatic transmission and a complete Corvette IRS rear end, with disc brakes at all four corners. The interior is a showcase of craftsmanship and creativity: custom sculpted seats and door panels, a burled wood dash insert housing a digital readout panel, air conditioning and a sunburst-motif inlaid hardwood cargo floor.

A stunning showpiece in every respect, this 1940 Ford Cabriolet street rod is based on an original Ford steel body and fenders mounted on a frame that was welded and smoothed in preparation for the installation of a superbly detailed undercarriage. A turbocharged and fuel injected LT1 Chevrolet V-8 powers the car in concert with a 700R automatic transmission and Ford rear end, all accompanied by fully chromed suspension and exhaust systems. Front disc and rear drum brakes are used behind staggered Coys large diameter Black Chrome wheels wearing ultra-low profile tires. A one-piece curved windshield adds a distinctive look along with the smoothed doors and hood, both of which are power operated along with the windows. Air conditioning, billet aluminum steering and controls and custom bucket seats and console complete the jazzy Red leather interior, which can be finished with either a matching Red boot or the accompanying Black Haartz cloth soft top.

What better way to dress up Chevrolet’s all-time American classic 1957 Bel Air convertible than in triple Black, with gleaming chrome, stainless and Gold anod-ized trim? Traditionalists will like the car’s mostly stock interior, a roomy and nostalgic environment that features a Wonderbar radio, in-dash clock and controls for the power top. Originally built at Chevrolet’s St. Louis assembly plant, the car has been mechanically upgraded for modern motoring with a 350 CI small block V-8 topped with Edelbrock valve covers and air cleaner and backed by a 350 Turbo Hydra-Matic automatic transmission; the power steering remains as configured at the factory to drive off the back of the generator, while the brakes now employ power front discs to slow the Coys Black Chrome 22-inch rear and 20-inch front wheels wrapped in low profile tires.

Built in the same style as its Wardley Collection stable mate (Lot S140) is this cherry 1940 Ford Resto Mod coupe boasting all Henry Ford steel body and fenders and a complete modern Ford drivetrain. Artfully packaged and nestled in the louvered engine compartment, the car’s fuel injected 5.0 L Ford small block is fitted with a Kenne Bell supercharger, tube headers and serpentine belt drive system, and finished with plenty of chrome and polished aluminum.

Hand-crafted Birdseye Maple was used in the making of this outstanding 1932 Ford Woody wagon, including the rear coachwork and its beautiful slatted ceiling beneath the padded roof. The luminous Yellow paint covering the car’s sheet metal is also used inside on the custom dash and steering column, and again on the fuel tank, Ford 9-inch rear axle housing and rear brake drums, the latter contrasting with the staggered diameter Coys Black Chrome wheels, while chrome plating deco-rates the front and rear bumpers, dropped front axle and rear coil springs. Powered by a show-ready 350 CI Chevy small block V-8 fitted with headers and mated to an automatic transmission, this sharp Woody features a custom interior with White-faced gauges in a modified dash, a leather-wrapped banjo steering wheel, air condi-tioning, and a hidden stereo system. Other special features include front disc brakes, tinted glass, a louvered hood and “Ford V-8” markings inside and on the tailgate.

This very rare and well-engineered 1939 GMC cabover truck is the very definition of “whimsical,” combining as it does GMC’s versatile rig with the sleeper cab from a Freightliner and a hydraulically operated stake bed. Carrying a VIN tag issued by Washington State, it is painted in two-tone Metallic Maroon over Metallic Silver fenders, headlight buckets and dual fuel tanks. It features twin air horns and air suspension and rolls on Firestone Transforce truck tires mounted on polished aluminum heavy duty spiral-spoke wheels. A Chevrolet big block V-8 mounted mid-ship drives a 400 Turbo Hydra-Matic transmission and overdrive rear axle for stump-pulling power, but the real fun is inside the vintage Jimmy’s roomy cab, where occupants are treated to power seats and windows, cruise control, custom gauges, “GMC”-motif steering wheel and shifter, a split crank-out windshield and an overhead console fitted with a 6-disc CD player and a CB radio.

The sharp styling of this 1937 Sedan Delivery is the perfect starting point for the builder’s vision of a well-engineered and eye-catching showpiece. Using an all-Henry Ford steel body, it features welded and smoothed fenders and running boards and a slick electrically activated forward-opening one-piece front end supported by hydraulic struts and a billet center bracket. The car’s blaring Viper Yellow paint with ghosted Pearl Yellow flames insures that it will be the center of attention wherever it goes, and a closer look reveals the beautifully crafted interior using Tan fabric and upholstery highlighted by Honduras Mahogany, Walnut and Vermil-lion wood inserts and panels. A wood-rimmed banjo steering wheel, tilt column, upper and lower consoles, Stewart Warner gauges, Vintage Air, moon roof, CD stereo and electric windows and cowl vent are included in the mix. A dual quad-equipped 350 CI engine, front and rear suspension and 4-wheel disc brakes – all Corvette contributions – give this brilliant street rod the power to make any delivery in short order.

If you are a fan of Chevrolet’s timeless 1955 Bel Air convertible, you will find plenty to like in this one-of-a-kind showpiece. Built from the ground up by one of the premier builders in the country, it is beautifully finished in triple Black and boasts the extra refinements of shaved door handles, welded and smoothed seams and superb fit and finish. Extensive use of chrome and polished finishes is evident throughout, including a chromed folding convertible top frame and brightly finished suspension pieces and exhaust system. Powered by a very rare LT4 fuel injected crate engine mated to a modern 4L60E automatic transmission, the car uses full air ride suspension, power steering and power disc brakes and rolls on staggered large-diameter Coys Black Chrome wheels shod with low-profile rubber. Complement-ing that smooth-riding setup is a custom interior offering Black leather upholstery, billet tilt steering column and padded wheel, custom gauges and clock, billet dash trim and controls and Vintage Air conditioning, all capped with a snappy Black Haartz cloth soft top.

A Henry Ford steel body supplies the foundation for this very sharp 1935 Ford Rumble Seat Cabriolet Resto Rod.
