Are you in the mood to let the wind blow thru your hair
(if you still have any, just kidding).... Now that I
have your attention, it's time to take a good look at this wildly beautiful drop top street rod! Appropriately
so, this Forty Convert graced the cover of the December
2005 Edition of Good Guys Gazette, with hundreds, if not
thousands of Rods to chose from at any given event, it is indeed
a statement in and of itself! Let's get on with the rest
of the show...
Loaded with drool factor & finished in an absolutely
lickable PPG Tangerine Pearl, the sooper slick Wescott
body has been shaved, smoothed and fitted with a 2.5"
chopped chocolate soft cloth convertible top. Completing
the simple style is a tasteful combination of old school
style reverse chrome 15" wheels, bullet center caps and
slick wide white radial tires (Front 195/50R15 - Rear
235/50R15)
Sliding into what makes it all work, Richter scale and
off the charts is a mirror quality undercarriage &
contrasting TCI (Total Cost Involved) engineered chassis
fitted with generous chrome, polished aluminum,
stainless and high tech components. Features
include polished Currie rear differential housing, four
bar rear suspension, air ride control, fully independent
front suspension with tubular control arms, power
Rack-N-Pinion Steering, Wilwood 4-Wheel Power Disc
Brakes w/polished aluminum backing plates, stainless
lines, polished stainless fuel tank and much more...
Adding power to the mix, under the hood resides a (put
your shades on) dressed/polished to the max GM Ram Jet
Fuel Injected 350 V8 fitted with aluminum cylinder
heads, H.E.I. Ignition, polished Billet Belt Drive System
& components, polished A/C Compressor, billet
reservoirs/recovery tanks, aluminum radiator, Sanderson
Block Hugger Headers and polished Stainless Dual Exhaust
& Mufflers. Transferring the injected power is a Turbo
400 Automatic Transmission straight into 350 Currie
Gears...
Hop
inside to a supple leather interior with 1940 Ford dash,
LeCarra Steering wheel, polished Tilt Steering Column,
Cruise Control, Power Windows, 6 Way Power seat,
fitted carpet and
German Weave Floor mats. STOP you in your tracks
beauty and Old School Style, you will get attention... |
