How about cruising on a modern smooth-riding chassis, with a custom
hot rod body that looks like its going 100 mph when its sitting still . . .
How? For starters, Woodsy sliced and hammer-welded the Desoto
fenders to match the dimensions of Cobra fenders. Then, he
grafted
the 1940 Desoto Business Coupe on a mid 1980's Thunderbird Fox
chassis . . . and gave it a nice Cobra stance.
