Dave and Deana Thomas have owned their '35 Chevy coupe for over 30 years. They came to Traditional Metalcraft for the latest makeover, which includes a radically re-imagined profile, from the raked, low-slung stance to the lakes-inspired top chop. Eric Black is responsible for the design. The car was showcased in baremetal on the cover and in a 14-page feature in The Rodder's Journal issue #70. Since then it's been finished and has hit the show circuit—and the road. Richard and Brandon Glymph at Absolute Rod & Custom Paint get credit for the coupe's flawless paintwork, while Michael Lippincott handled the beautiful color-matched leather interior.
