This car, or rather piece of art, is the epitome of the phrase one
of a kind. It has been our client's labor of love for the past 27
years and with heavy hesitation, he has decided to put it up for
sale, as it is time for someone else to enjoy it as he has. In
1990, he purchased a stock 1978 Dodge Magnum and as the car sits
today, the only thing that remains original is the glovebox door
and the VIN. It has been on display at top events and been given
many awards, the most recent being the first and only automobile to
be entered into the Grand Rapids' ARTPRIZE event, as a work of art.
It was on display at the 2017 Detroit Autorama (see photos) and
most importantly, given the prestigious Gene Winfield SELECT 6
Award at the Syracuse Nationals (8,500 car show). Be sure to watch
Gene's video interview posted below. It was also featured in
October 2017 on the popular TV car show Dream Ridez. This is a
special car that has close to $300,000 total invested, as no
expense was spared or shortcut was made in the build process. All
work done by professionals, such as Classic Coachworks, who we know
personally and sing praises of their attention to detail. Below is
a list of all the modifications, inside and out. The body is all
steel and the interior is all custom finished to the highest
quality. If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate
to contact us. This is a radically awesome Retro-Concept that is a
pure head-turner. It has not been shown south of Columbus, Ohio or
west of Michigan. Vehicle can be seen in the Greater Grand Rapids
Area by appointment only. We have over 150 photos on our main
website plus a walk-around video of the car running. Thank you for
