Description

Time Warp Style, Function and Flat Out Fun! Traditional open air "Hot Rods" with the 50's feel are often admired and enjoyed for the memories they bring to life, while inviting healthy grins of approval. Capturing an era gone by goes far deeper than sheet metal and a satin black finish because the components that reside within complete the look and feel in more ways than one. I can easily imagine this unit with taped on numbers and a light salt spray on it's side panels... Got Salt?

I would say it's received the attention it deserves; Feature magazine articles include Street Rodder 6/99, American Rodder 2/00, "Best of the Best 2000" and 2 Hardbacks "Hot Rod an American Original" by  Peter Vincent followed by "Rods and Customs" by Bo Bertilsson.... Enough? Come and Get It...
