This fully custom 1959 Chevrolet 2-door Brookwood wagon was one of
only 20,760 produced in 1959, with a fresh build completed in 2022.
It is powered by a LS3 480hp engine mated to a 4L60E transmission.
Updates to the car include a highly detailed engine compartment,
including a smooth firewall, custom wheel wells, dual radiator fan
shrouds, a core support and radiator cover, a one-off 348 air
cleaner, one-off Offenhauser Brookwood valve covers and one-off
hood hinges. This was a 12-year project. The build of the chassis
was completed by Aaron Iha in Covina, CA; the body and paint were
finished by Acosta's Baldwin Park; and the interior was completed
by Ron Magnus at Hot Rod Interiors in Yucaipa, CA. This car was
televised on "Bitchin' Rides" Season 8 Episode 3, received the
Kindig's Builder Choice Award, and has been in the Top 10 Picks at
multiple Goodguys shows. It was the Goodguys Del Mar Fuel Pick,
featured on a Goodguys 2022 event T-shirt, was a 2021 SEMA featured
vehicle and the 2022 First Place winner of the Grand National
Roadster Show's Radical Class. The car has had Mother's Polishes
and Wilwood Brakes sponsorships. The highly detailed chassis
features a fully custom, one-off boxed and curved frame hidden
behind the 4-inch channeled floors and rockers. It features one-off
lower and upper triple-plated control arms, a one-off 9-inch
independent rear suspension with floating big Wilwood disc brakes,
a fully polished stainless-steel exhaust that includes MagnaFlow
mufflers, a custom stainless-steel gas tank that matches the roof
lines, all-electrical smooth floors, and the brake and fuel lines
were hidden. The wagon is finished in R-M BASF subtle two-tone
paint that reflects off all the triple-plated show chrome. The
exterior underwent 14 body modifications, including receiving
4-inch channeled floors, slanted B-pillars, one piece of glass
behind the B-pillar, custom 1956 Nomad trim, shaved and channeled
bumpers, a frenched-in rear bumper, shaved rain gutters and a

luggage trim. The interior also includes a Mercedes carpet, a
Vintage Air system with tasteful and original 1959 Chevrolet air
conditioning vents, power windows that include power wind wings and

stainless-steel door and a tailgate latch. It is equipped with a
one-off set of Classic Instruments gauges. The sound system
