Constructed in 1953 for Bob Hirohata, it was designed and built by George and Sam Barris, assisted by Frank Sonzogni. It started out as a 1951 Club Coupe.Nosed, decked, and shaved, the top was chopped four inches in front and seven inches in back, and the vertical B-pillar was reshaped so that it curved forward at the top. The rear window had its posts removed, and was raked steeply forward, requiring a new roof piece to be fabricated Side trim was replaced with that from a 1952 Buick (the spears),augmented by grille teeth from a 1952 Chevrolet (three per side)and functional scoops. The front wheels are fitted with traditional sombrero ('47-'51 Cadillac) hubcaps. Skirts were added, fitting flush. Three '51 Ford grilles were used to custom-fabricate one, and the bumper was fitted with dagmars.
