Car Craft Dream Rod

you have some true dedication.. lots of work to return it

 

Did you find a rear window for it yet?

 

I love these "Cut-up Rod's",there are out there car art wies,this one was a insiered many more. The Spook here in Miami was the frist cut-up I had got to help a little,working on with the Gorage Ikick that built it in 1959,it used a wreked 55 t-bird as the base car and parts of caddy.

 

Hey, look on the bright side at least you now know what a Borgward looks like.

 

That beats the Ardun heads I found at a yard sale. Great score man. Thats so cool!!

 

Man that's cool.

 

You must be some sort of Big Shot.

Mark Moriarity has got it made.

Nice work!!

 

I saw this car sitting outside in an alley in Detroit probably 30 -35 years ago, stripped down to the bare essentials. I wish I had followed up on it then to buy it, as it is one of my Cushenberry favorites. Glad to see it is in good hands for a restoration.

 

Thanks for sharing and please keep us posted.

 

Dude - that's fantastic. Forgot all about that car, thanks for the memory jogger.

 

Where the f*ck did you find a Jowett Jupiter ch***is???? It'd b edifficult to find one over here....

 

Interesting car to say the least. I have two questions. What the hell is a Jowett Jupiter and a Borgward?

 

how cool is that!

 

That thing is wild looking ........

 

do you have any pictures of a borgwald?

 

Rear window in the Dream Rod... but was it also the rear window in the Borgward? or was it the windshield in the Borgward used for a back window in the Dream Car?
Is it installed turned upside down?

Just curious....

Sedan

 

As always Mark, your work is *****inn

 

Mark, doing some research tonight on another car and I discovered that the Dream Rod was designed by Bob Hubbach ( now retired Chrysler designer) and ( Chuck Pelly ( designer of Scarabs and Chapparal racers ) You can Google and find their info. Asigned it as was published.ways thought the Car Craft staff designed it as had been published. Great car.

 

That's cool that it's still around I run across this article in a 1963 Modern Rod Magazine
