Moon rocket ? This T-bird was owned, and built by Jerry Anolik. Jerry and Gino had a body shop in the North Beach district in San Francisco in the mid 1950's. Jerry traded his somewhat tame Cadillac engine to Ted Leventhal for Ted's more potent Cadillac engine. The radical re-styling came about as a result of Jerry hitting another car in the rear end. Before that it was just a mild custom T-bird. Jerry was a member of the Frisco Drifters. His club plaque had # 38 on it. I used to hang around their body shop as a teen-ager. They chopped a 1954 Dodge pick-up shop truck that had one side 1/4" lower than the other. I remember them talking about it, but decided to leave it as it was.
