We finished up another big project this past week in the shop. Ryan Henry’s 55 bel air wagon used to be his grandfather hotrod and decided he wanted to give it a whole new look. It started out with John Koziel for the cage work as well as the Fab 9 and ladder bar set up. After than Ryan handled the body work and paint on it. An original color modernized really sets it off. Last stop was to our shop for mounting components finish assembly and wiring. We all had a large amount of time and effort into this one but everyone is happy with the end result.
In house we handled mounting the fuel cell , battery, nitrous bottle and air compressor under the factory floor. Finished out the rear cargo area. Installed the headliner, windlace, door panels, interior trim and carpet. Wiring, plumbing and all the misc assembly to get this thing running. Ryan plans to race this one as well as street drive it so on top of the normal race components we did an exhaust, turn signals, reverse lights, hi/low beams, cigarette lighter and one of our new billet dome light mounts operated off the door jam switches. Overall I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out.
In addition to our in house components, Ryan’s car features products from these great companies:
Pro 1 Racing & Safety Products, Racepak, Motion Raceworks,American Autowire, K&R Performance, and Mickey Thompson Performance Tires & Wheels
As always, thank you for checking us out!
