I Purchased this vehicle from Lee Petty. he won the 1954 Daytona 500 with this model of Chrysler. He had this car in Arizona. and could not tell me if this was the actual car or not. In those days the factories made the teams put the cars back in original condition after they quit racing them. The car was completely rust free when we started the build.  
I completely rebuilt the engine. added GM water pump and timing cover conversion. flat top pistons. 3/4 cam. 340 oil pump. canister oil filter. Edelbrock carb. . nbsp;headers and newly rebuilt torqueflite transmission and shifter. All parts were purchased from Hot Heads Research & Racing.
The body was customised as follows: both front and rear wheel wells were reshaped. front headlights and rear taillights were shaped and upgraded. The door handles were shaved. power windows and locks added. The car has been converted to 12 volt. the brakes have all been rebuilt. I have purchased an electric power steering pump but have not installed. The car had a show quality paint job 3 years ago. and still looks very good. The interior is all been redone using real leather. new headliner. I have new carpeting and pad. but needs to be installed.
The engine runs great. and the car drives great. The wiring has been started but needs to be completed. gages have been converted to run on 12 volts.
The reality is I am 65 years old and have other projects I want to complete. I will never finish this car. The only problem I know of on this build is a crack in the rear passenger side fender. (see photo) I have over $20 grand invested. The reserve is less than 1/2. If you want a one of a kind project. take a good look.
