West Peterson Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 George Dragone of Dragone Classic Motorcars is donating this absolutely incredible 1907 Stanley Steamer. It was built by William Blank 15 years ago. It is five feel long and three feet high, features fully elliptical springs and gauges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Peterson Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 This elegant beauty comes to us from Bo and Karen Sowers of American Classic Auto Restorations. Technicians Bobby Smith and Rick Martin chose to base this creation on actor/comedian Cheech Marin's 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air convertible that was featured in the movie Nice Dreams.

West Peterson Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 More updates from Hoover Restorations. Remember, the auction for these pedal cars takes place Friday, and all proceeds benefit the AACA, a 501©3 organization. Rick says that tomorrow will be a long day finishing up the top and painting it. "We're even making the rubber bungie cord hood and trunk hold downs. Monday or Tuesday night to Barry's for the roof lettering." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
