50th Autorama Detroit Cobo Center | February 2002 Detroit, Mighigan Pictures by Rick Leventhal, Text by Bob Nugent A Hotrods Online Photo Expose 1951 Chevrolet Hardtop 67/115   |      When I was a kid, we were going to the lake and I saw this actual car sitting at the gas pumps. That's all I saw of the car in real life, but I sure saw a lot of it in the magazines of the day. It was built by George Barris for a catholic priest in Toledo, OH. He loved cars but had someone register them and take them to shows. THis is one of the earliest and most beautiful of Barris' Cars. Sam Barris actually did the work. 1951 Chevrolet Hardtop 67/115   |      ©1994-2002 Hotrods Online ® All Rights reserved. No Images or text may be used without prior written authorization.
