I'm looking for a maximum of informations about this cool coupe, apparentelly built in California (?) by a guy with good taste, and the car is now in France, after transit via England or netherland...
The actual owner, a local harley guy, want all the informations I can find, to make a good archive book about his rod.
The car as been published in Rolls & Pleats #10, page 17, at the Hootenanny 2003. Here is the R&P pic.
Moon equipped, Ckdeluxe, and Deacons decals are on the windshield. Metalic green, with ivory pinstriping, t-bird valve covers, 3carbs set.
If you have some other pics of the rod, constructions pics, contact of the builder, I'm very interrested.
Maybe it's a hamber...

I remember that car now. Jim Benitez (Rogue) told me they had just finished the chop and painted it days before Paso (2002). It belonged to a friend of his.

It sounds like Jim has his hands full with a new baby, but you might email him in a week or two.

etienne, all I know is that this car was before in the Netherlands - a dutch guy called Perry brought it to the American Graffiti car show in Austria (near Switzerland) the french guy bought it on the first day.....it was about 23.000 Euro
