Like Keith said, WAY better then a v-dub kit. So are you guys looking for info/ history on it? -Shiny
nice to see it will be back on the road. i'll have to do some searching through the old mags and see if i can find anything.
Great find, I`ll keep the car in the back of my head when I'm looking through old magazines.... I believe I have seen that taillight treatment in any of my magazines...
check out my webshots if you want to see another custom that was also displayed at the 62' seattle worlds fair. my avitar is same car and it's still owned by a buddy of mine that has owned it for 35+ years. the car is a actual driver if needed. the car was in hot rod magazine november 62' also. cool chevy custom.
Jeffery, That '53 Chevy was my dad's custom; he built that car. I can remember as a little kid playing in it in my grandfather's basement. It was indeed in the '62 World's Fair as well as a bunch of other car shows around the pacific northwest in the early 60's. My dad's still around and can give you all the info you need. Shoot me an email if you want- timcuts at gmail dot com
There is a picture of it in the 1961 Seattle Roadster show program.. I don't have the program, but have seen it
