1957 Plymouth hardtop - Eddie Johnson - built by Joe Wilhelm

Nicely done was a good description for the 1957 Plymouth hardtop of Eddie Johnson from Petaluma, California. San Jose customizer Joe Wilhelm created the exaggerated rear fins, the front and rear rolled pans and the front and rear tube grilles. A very unusual model to use as a base for a full custom. The fade paint job looked even better in person.
