Plymouth Kustom 1936 Description

First off: THIS CAR IS ALL STEEL!!!Built by Jerry Gennuso somewhere around 2006 with additions and refinements by Rick Erickson in 2013. This car is a tribute to the fine kustoms built by Harry Westergard and his mentor Dick Bertoluccie. The "Westergard" style has been emulated by many builders throughout the years including but certainly not limited to the Barris brothers. With the addition of a full air bag suspension this beauty not only lays frame but makes for one very kool taildragger. This 36 coupe was radically chopped totally smoothed with both the hood sides and rumble seat filled in. Below is a list of the many donor parts used to comprise this "Westergard" Style Kustom:1936 Cadillac LaSalle grille1941 Cadillac hood ornament1941 Plymouth headlights1940 International front fenders molded and peaked1953 Chevy front wheel wells1934 Hudson rear fenders molded stretched and peaked1941 Buick skirt trim1939 Lincoln Zephyr taillights (repop led)The whole rear section of the car including the license plate frame and rear apron were all hand formed along with the running boards.INTERIOR:Chevy tilt column with working turn signalsStock center gauge with speedo temp and voltsSeparate fuel gaugeI can pack 2 suitcases 2 coolers 2 chairs and a tool box and detail kit behind the seats.DRIVETRAIN:305 Chevy with 2 barrel700r4 trans10 bolt Chevy rear This baby gets over 20 MPG!SUSPENSION:Front: 1978 Ford Mustang full rack with power steering disc brakes and Fox nitro shocks with air bagsRear: Modified 2 link with panhard Fox Nitro shocks and air bagsI drove this car from So.
