Description
Lot #1388.1 - Fully functional and drives great, the body of this Kirkham roadster is handcrafted in Silicon Bronze to create a gold color when polished as this one is. The front-to-rear racing stripes are hand-brushed to provide the needed contrast. The car is fitted with the correct-type Hallibrand knock-off wheels as found on the originals. This is a like-new, 8-year old car that has only been driven on and off a trailer at car shows. The interior is fitted with the original-type correct bucket seats in black leather, with a leather-covered dash and original-type gauges. The floors are covered with black cut-pile carpeting. Fitted with the optional Halon fire suppression system, as-new throughout. The engine compartment is fitted with an all-aluminum Ford 427ci V8 side-oiler engine. The valve covers and the "turkey pan" are both hand-fabricated in the same silicon bronze material so they match the body. A work of art by some very fine craftsmen.
