Description
Lot #541 - Famed customizer John D'Agostino picked up this Super 88 and got to work on conveying his vision to master craftsman John Aiello from Sahagon's Custom Car Concepts. Together they upgraded and detailed the stock chassis. Molded, nosed and decked the body and filled all body seams. Up front, he installed a redesigned 1960 Mercury grille with Lucas headlights. Out back, taillights from a 1956 Oldsmobile were frenched into place. Sahagon's Darrell Hollenbeck then expertly applied the custom PPG Pagan Gold paint leading the Super 88 to be christened "Golden Starfire." Inside, Sahagon's Craig Willits reupholstered the '63 Buick Riviera seats in white pearlescent Naugahyde along with a matching dashboard and steering wheel. Recently, this former Rod and Custom magazine cover car has had a whole slew of mechanical updates, such as new water pump, timing chain, ball joints and control-arm bushings. It's powered by a refreshed 394ci engine and Hydramatic transmission, plus a new Vintage Air and heating unit.
