Our customer possesses a deep admiration for the design aesthetics of American Classics from the 40s and 50s. With a fervent dream of owning a kustomized, chopped-roof Ford Coupe, he embarked on a journey to bring his vision to life. After meticulously sketching his dream car, he digitally enhanced his hand-drawn designs.

Upon discovering a suitable donor car, our customer approached several coach builders to materialize the body of his dream vehicle. Unfortunately, due to a lack of expertise in body chopping and assembly skills, the project hit a roadblock. Fortunately, our customer was introduced to Sander, and after thorough discussions, he decided to entrust the project to StingRay63.

Regrettably, the initial bodywork failed to meet the exacting standards of Sander and his father, necessitating a substantial redo of the bodywork. Additionally, various design features had to be engineered and meticulously handcrafted.

Undoubtedly, this project stands as the most challenging undertaking for Sander to date. However, he is optimistic that the painstaking efforts invested will pay off when the car makes its grand debut at classic car events in the Netherlands in 2025.
