It is set to cross the blocks in Scottsdale, Arizona, on January 27th, with an auction estimate of $750,000 – $950,000.
Just as the fins dominate the back, the front features an enormous oval grille and sweeping front fender lines.
It is a modified Dual-Quad 392ci FirePower Hemi that sends 400hp to the rear wheels via a three-speed TorqueFlite
transmission. Naturally, power assistance for the steering and brakes are included in the package.
Acres of deceased cattle grace the upholstered surfaces in a combination of Black and White, from the seats to the
door trims, console, gauge fascia, dash pad, and steering wheel center.
Luxury touches include air conditioning with pop-up vents in the rear parcel tray, power windows, and a remote driver’s mirror. There is one further luxury touch, but it is worthy of its own paragraph. The unit was a turntable that played bespoke records, with the sound pumping through the car’s radio amplifier and
speakers. Records spun at 16⅔ rpm, with each capable of storing about forty-five minutes of music per side.
