    Say hello To Lucille
    Lucille has been my car for the past 10 years. I have done a full restoration and then some, on this car over the years. I can promise you that this is the most reliable car that you will ever own, starts with every turn of the key, stops on a dime. If you're looking for a car that you can drive anywhere at any time and look great doing it, this is the car for you.

    Getting to know Lucille
    First off, lets do a little history of the car. This car has been a bay area car its entire life. Being sold out of south San Francisco and living there for most of its life. After many years, the son of the original owner brought it to his home in Antioch and through a few change of hands, I ended up with it. Now I won't try and church it up at all. This car was a south SF car most of its life so it had rust in the typical places and some not so typical. I went through the entire car top to bottom and repaired all the rust issues THE RIGHT WAY. I can't stress that enough, every part of rust was cut out and replaced with a new panel by butt welding the new panel in and finally Tig welding it all to a like-new finish.

    The custom touches
    This car has a lot of mild custom touches which are my favorite because it lets the car speak for itself, as well as your average person won't know anything has been done to it. So lets start the list:
    *Head lights have been frenched ( don't worry head lights are still very easy to change out if not easier than stock)
    *Hood has been shaved and peaked that fades away
    *Decklid has been shaved
    *Windshield wipers have been deleted and the stainless strip has been filled so you cant even tell they were ever there ( you'll never need them because rain-ex works great!!)
    *49 Olds one peace windshield
    *Door handles have been shaved
    *53 ford side trim custom fit
    *Shaved tail lights
    * Bumperet tail lights in the not-so-stock rear bumper guard that has been cut down in every way to fit the shape of the licence plate
    * Olds hub caps
    *Custom tuck and roll seats
    It has dropped stock suspension that was rebuilt 2 years ago, dropped uprights (spindles) with a coil cut out of the spring which has the front down 4 1/2 inches
    and the rear is de arched leafs with 4 inch blocks so the rear comes out to 6 inches. Also, the rear has been C notched to give a better ride while being so low.
    * Custom mixed PPG acrylic enamel that has been cut and buffed to a mirror finish.
    * 6x9 kenwoods that will wake up your grandma from down the street and will have you hearing shit in Stairway to Heaven you never heard before.

    The nitty gritty:
    So, this is the shit that will get your ass flyin down the road and havin everyone wondering why the fuck your 1951 chevy is faster then their prius.
    * 1954 235 that has been completely gone though with hydrolic lifters and a mild cam
    * Pertronix ignition that has never in 10 years given me a problem
    * Dual exhaust with little 12 inch glass packs so its quiet when you want to be and loud when you need to be
    * T-5 5 speed transmission so you'll be doing 80mph and getting 25 miles to the gallon
    * 69 Firebird 10 bolt rear end that has new wheel bearings and has been bullet proof.
    * Brakes are completely rebuilt from top to bottom starting with a new master cylinder, down to wheel cylinders, springs, and shoes.
    *6.50 x 15 Wide White wall Firestones all around

    All and all, I built this car to be fun, practical, and beautiful. I love it and am posting it on the HAMB first because I hope that it can go to a good home, to some one who will love it and respect what has been done to it and above all, Drive it!!
