Details:	Take advantage of my final lifelong design and build. This extensive 5 year Professional build produced arguably one of the most beautiful Customs in Existence. Starting out life with a rust free 2 owner Canadian Black Plate car, this build took over 5,000 man hours to complete.

Pictures of the build are in the show book, all trophies and magazine articles are included to preserve the history of this timeless design. A duplication of this Elegant Custom could not be built for less than an estimated $400,000 in todayandrsquo;s market. My loss is your gain. Call David at 1-619-515-2220 or email us at [ email ]
