If you’re in the market for a pre-war American hot rod, the chances are you’ll have seen multitudes of Fords on the market. The Blue Oval is by far the most popular choice when it comes to crazy builds, even if many of them don’t always sport a Ford motor. This 1935 Chevrolet Vicky is here to readdress the balance. Like the Ford options, it ticks the usual hot rodder checkboxes: fiberglass body? Check. Chopped roof? Check. Custom rims? Check. Big V8 powerplant? Check. Our featured car is more than just a car at this point. It’s a work of art. And, it could be yours, with just 6,500 miles reported running on the new engine.
Exterior and Interior
The first thing you’ll notice about this 1935 Chevrolet Vicky is its custom bodywork, with a body from fiberglass hot-rod specialist body makers, Downs. The fiberglass body is placed on top of a new custom-built chassis. The body is painted in a stunning House Of Kolor Sunset Orange Pearl exterior paint that ties this creation together wonderfully. Other exterior features include the car’s chopped roof, shaved door handles, and body-matched running boards. This brightly colored hot rod sits on a set of staggered-diameter chrome rims from Coys. It features 18-inch wheels up front and 20-inch wheels in the rear. The exterior also features LED lighting. Step inside the 1935 Chevrolet Vicky and you’ll find a custom two-tone tan interior. The cabin is just as remarkable as the exterior, with a small chrome and wood four-spoke steering wheel for the driver. Multiple gauges from VDO are on display, allowing the driver to monitor speed, oil pressure, fuel level, engine rpm, and water temperature.
Engine
Under the hood of this 1935 Chevrolet Vicky lies a 350ci / 5.7L V8 engine that is reported to have a mere 6,500 miles on it and features high-performance aluminum heads. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a four-speed automatic transmission. Further upgrades to the engine bay include a new distributor and Talor plug wires. The engine compartment is further dressed up with a new chrome alternator, polished A/C compressor, and polished water pump. Dive further under the skin, and you’ll find Corvette rear suspension with independent front suspension. New power four-wheel disc brakes are fitted all around, as well as rack-and-pinion steering.
Originally introduced as Chevrolet's stylish and practical business coupe, the 1940 Master Deluxe has become a favorite foundation for custom street rod builders thanks to its flowing Art Deco lines and roomy engine bay. This 1940 Chevrolet Master Deluxe Business Coupe Street Rod has been transformed into a modern cruiser, combining timeless pre-war styling with the performance of a massive 502ci V8 and the convenience of an automatic transmission. Finished in White with subtle Ghost Flame graphics over a custom Blue and Black interior, this professionally built street rod offers classic hot rod character with modern drivability and comfort.
This 1935 Chevrolet Tudor Sedan has been thoughtfully transformed into a modern street rod while preserving the timeless character of Chevrolet’s pre-war design. Originally produced during a period when streamlined styling and improved engineering were redefining American automobiles, the 1935 Chevrolet featured graceful fender lines, a tall chrome grille, and elegant proportions. This example retains its all-original steel body but benefits from extensive mechanical and cosmetic upgrades, creating a classic cruiser that combines vintage style with contemporary performance. Finished in a gray and silver exterior with red pinstriping, this Tudor sedan blends traditional hot rod aesthetics with modern reliability and comfort.
Now here’s a hot rod that’s true to the term to a tee. This 1934 Chevrolet Coupe Hot Rod may have started life off as a Chevrolet Standard when it was new, but it’s now been customized to such an extent, that scant little of its previous life exists. Chevys and Fords from the 1920s and 1930s are extremely popular as hot rod platforms because of their appearance, construction and ease of turning into something truly artistic. This particular car is now up for grabs in Port St. Lucie, Florida and packs a massive 502ci Chevy Big Block under the hood…well, what of the hood is left, because the engine is now partially exposed for all and sundry to see. The car rocks an autobox, rear-wheel drive and has just 20,000 miles on it.
This 1978 Chevrolet C10 Silverado brings together classic square-body styling with a selection of upgrades that give it a more personalized street-truck character. Showing approximately 70,132 miles, this example is powered by a 350ci V8 with a 4-barrel carburetor and 3-speed automatic transmission. Finished in a custom Black and Silver two-tone exterior over a Gray interior, it also features power steering, power brakes, air conditioning, aftermarket wheels, an aftermarket suspension setup, and a center console with cupholders. The result is a distinctly American pickup that keeps the straightforward appeal of the original C10 while adding a cleaner, lower, more customized presentation.
The 1966 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible comes from the heart of the C2 era, when the Corvette had already matured into a genuinely serious American sports car without losing the raw character that made the Sting Ray famous. This example leans heavily into that character. Showing 19,053 miles, it pairs a 327ci V8 with a four-barrel carburetor and a four-speed manual transmission, then adds the kind of period-style attitude enthusiasts gravitate toward: side-mount exhaust, knock-off-style turbine wheels, and a vivid Sunfire Yellow finish over a black interior. The current owner reports more than $83,000 invested into the build, with attention extending beyond cosmetics into the cooling system, ignition components, timing hardware, and other supporting mechanical upgrades. What makes this car appealing is that it still delivers the classic C2 experience in the way enthusiasts want it: small-block V8 up front, manual gearbox in the middle, drive going to the rear, and very little standing between the driver and the car. The side pipes give the Corvette a more aggressive presence and soundtrack, while the custom paint and wheel setup emphasize the long-hood, short-deck proportions that made the midyear Corvette one of Chevrolet’s most iconic designs.
By 2008, the C6 Corvette had matured into one of the strongest all-around American performance cars of its era, and this example combines the right mechanical hardware with an unusually extensive equipment list. Showing 50,966 miles, this 2008 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe is equipped with the desirable 3LT Preferred Equipment Group and Z51 Performance Package, pairing the LS3 V8 with a six-speed manual transmission, 3.42:1 limited-slip rear axle, and dual-mode performance exhaust. It was also specified with the GCA Ultimate Package, adding a collection of appearance upgrades that give this Victory Red Corvette a more distinctive presence than a typical C6. An aftermarket front splitter and audio head unit add further personalization while retaining the fundamental character that makes a manual Z51 C6 such an appealing enthusiast car.
