1940 Chevrolet Special

True art comes in many forms, whether it be brush to palette then
canvas, or sculpting a form from a lump of clay, or starting with a
raw log and putting it on the lathe to create a bowl. Art always
comes through the doors of Classic Auto Mall in the form of a
custom car creation. Not unlike looking at the paintings on the
wall at MOMA, the halls here at CAM are draped with years of
sculpted metal to gaze upon and see the history of design unfold
right before our very eyes.

Using the tools of a chop saw, a grinder, sandpaper and a builders
concept, we now have a work of art in the form of a 1940 Chevrolet
Special. Looking something like the original, but made better now
better, shaved, chopped, and a large blower motor, and some custom
add ones from other cars I give you this Orange masterpiece.

Exterior
So, starting upfront we will keep the "Groucho Marx" style mustache
grille, shave the bumper, and add some Porsche 911 headlights
melted into the rounded fenders, and so begins the look. All steel
for this "juiced" looker which minds its gaps well and is all
draped in PPG Orange with a hint of gold pearl just to add some
depth. A nifty little sidebar is a hardtop which comes off to have
some open-air motoring. The rear retains its original shape but
utilizes 37 Ford taillights that are masterfully sculpted into the
bulbous rear fender and complete the curvaceous line of the car on
the back. 16 inch in front and 17 inch on the rear Boyds polished
wheels wrapped in low profile radials hide neatly under the fenders
courtesy the bagged suspension...Low rider!

Interior
Swinging the suicides, we see custom molded door panels with tight
square stitched broadcloth coverings, neat cranks and handles and
some leather accent panels. Slipping inside, our bottoms are glad
handed by custom leather two tone seats with light inserts and tan
bolsters. The rear bench stays in tune with the buckets and starts
a custom orange center console which races forward to the dash. In
the center a B&M shifter with a flamed orange ball topper
protrudes from the console. Up front is a custom molded dash with
white faced AutoMeter gauges and black bezels which have been
carefully molded into the metal body matching orange dash. A
leather wrapped custom billet style steering wheel with a large
chromed column that is adjustable grows from the dash and can be
adjusted for any size driver. Broadcloth for the headliner which
matches the door panels, and pristine tan carpet floods the
floors.
