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.
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.
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.

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.
The Chevrolet Master Deluxe was a cornerstone of 1930s American motoring, known for its graceful proportions and Art Deco-inspired styling. Today, many have been transformed into hot rods, blending timeless design with modern performance and comfort. This 1935 Chevrolet Master Deluxe Hot Rod captures that formula beautifully. Finished in striking red inside and out, it combines classic coupe lines with a 350ci V8, Turbo 350 automatic transmission, and a host of upgrades that make it both a showstopper and a capable cruiser.
The fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro marked the triumphant return of one of America’s most iconic performance nameplates, blending retro-inspired styling with modern muscle car performance. By 2012, the formula had been refined into a compelling mix of V8 power, aggressive looks, and everyday usability, especially in well-equipped 2SS trim. This 2012 Chevrolet Camaro 2SS Convertible RS shows approximately 39,482 miles and presents as a striking example finished in Inferno Orange Metallic over a black leather interior with a matching black soft top. Combining the premium 2SS package, RS appearance enhancements, and open-air motoring, this Camaro delivers classic American muscle with modern convenience and unmistakable road presence.
The C3-generation Chevrolet Corvette represents one of the most recognizable eras in Corvette history, blending dramatic styling with classic American V8 performance. By 1977, Chevrolet had refined the C3 formula into a comfortable grand touring sports car that still carried the unmistakable long-hood, short-deck proportions enthusiasts loved. This particular 1977 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe shows approximately 65,005 miles and presents as a well-kept example of a late chrome-era C3, finished in an attractive light blue over Light Buckskin interior. Powered by the dependable L48 350ci V8 paired with an automatic transmission, this Corvette offers relaxed cruising character with authentic small-block V8 charm. With removable roof panels and an upgraded Pioneer audio head unit, it balances vintage driving enjoyment with a touch of modern convenience.
The 1967 Chevrolet Impala represented the final year of one of Chevrolet’s most elegant full-size body styles of the decade, combining sweeping proportions with unmistakable American V8 presence. By this point, the Impala had firmly established itself as one of America’s most popular full-size cars, available in everything from comfortable family cruisers to big-block-powered boulevard bruisers. This 1967 Chevrolet Impala Convertible shows approximately 35,353 miles and presents as a beautifully configured open-top cruiser, finished in striking Bolero Red over a Parchment interior with a matching convertible top. With big-block power, upgraded drivability features, and timeless styling, this Impala offers the kind of classic American motoring experience that remains endlessly appealing.
Some builds are modified classics. Others are rolling works of art. This 1950 Ford Custom Deluxe Club Coupe Street Rod unquestionably falls into the latter category. Built by Dakota Muscle Cars and recognized across some of the most respected stages in the street rod world, this award-winning custom is far more than a vintage Ford with a few tasteful upgrades. It is a fully realized high-end build that earned coverage in Street Rodder Magazine, landed in the Street Rodder Top 100 in 2011, and was a finalist for both Custom Rod of the Year and West Coast Custom of the Year. Showing approximately 2,515 miles since completion, this coupe represents the kind of professionally executed custom that would cost an extraordinary amount to replicate today. For buyers seeking craftsmanship, show pedigree, and genuine street usability, this Ford checks every box.
The 1936 Chevrolet FB 1/2-Ton Pickup Street Rod is a beautifully reimagined classic that blends pre-war styling with modern performance and comfort. Showing 34,186 miles, this build transforms an iconic early Chevrolet truck into a usable and enjoyable cruiser without losing its vintage character. With a custom two-tone finish and a proven small-block V8 under the hood, it offers the best of both worlds—classic looks paired with reliable drivability. Street rods like this are highly sought after for their uniqueness, and this example stands out with its thoughtful upgrades and attention to detail.
Pre-war American design meets unmistakable Mopar performance in this 1939 Plymouth Business Coupe, a thoughtfully built street rod that blends vintage character with modern usability.
