INTERIOR DESCRIPTION: | No door panels or headliner yet, green
Mexican blankets on the seats... Really nice
dash tho. I recently removed the old dealer-
installed seat covers to reveal very well
preserved original upholstery, much to my
surprise! I still leave the blankets on for
protection. | EXTERIOR DESCRIPTION: | Slowly getting there. Lots of old "Whisky
dents" as we call them, but I'm doing the
body work a little at a time. | ||

VEHICLE HISTORY/ PROJECT STATUS: | Originally from Grants Pass, OR, it made its way to a local junk yard here in California. From there it was bought by someone and sat in their back yard for a few years. I got it for 2 bucks and a 35 Chevy small block. I plan to make a very mild custom/cruiser out of it, while retaining as many original parts as I can. I just put in another 327 that I got from a friend in Idaho. It is also out of a '53, but came in a Cavalier or Mayfair. | ||||
| Vehicle Modifications | |||||
MODIFICATIONS: | Cstre Re-worked side trim, 3" lowering blocks in back, new BFG bias ply white walls, lots of pinstriping, nosed, decked.... Soon it will be repainted in my own custom mixed light green suede with a lime green 'fake roof. 327 from a Cavalier or Mayfair. | ||||
