Within the December 2009 issue of Rod & Custom Magazine, hides a project that is not for the faint of heart. Not for the weary. Not for those who don't have the follow-through to start and finish such an ambitious project. I'm speaking, of course, of the Dream Car of the Month, the 1957 DeSoto Firejet designed by the renowned custom car designer, Keith Kaucher. The car is a homogenization of a 1957 Desoto, a 1960 Plymouth, and several design features from late-'50s Chevys, among other things. It's beauty lies in its sleek, straight lines, and potential for a place in the Custom Car history books. One problem with this car: It doesn't exist. Yet. Golden Idol Customs and Restoration is taking on the task or making this vision a reality. Here we will chronicle the project from start-to-finish. See the Links page for related links. |
