IN STORAGE FOR 22YRS. When I purchased this rod it was in 14 boxes. This custom rod made its debute at the Oakland Nationals, in 1987, where it took second for "Best of Show". The owner was so upset with second, he had it totally dismantled and had World Champion Drag Racer, Rick Santos, S&S Automotive, San Leandro, Ca., build the 1963 1/2 Chev. Corvette 327, that is still in the car with o hours on it. He eliminated the chrome suspension, and had "Little John Buttera, the Billet King" design and handcraft the frt. torsion-bar suspension and the rear is a combo Jaguar and handcrafted Billet aluminum, also.
