1955 Chevrolet - Jim Seaton - Barris Kustoms
1955 Chevrolet constructed by Barris Kustoms for Jim Seaton of Santa Maria, California. The front fenders were reworked to accept the quad seperated Lucas headlights. The grille was removed and a new one made out of perforated screen with bullets was installed. The stock frenched and tunneled taillights were modified with plastic fin additions, three red and two frosted plastic tiers. The side trims originated from a 1955 Dodge. The body was painted white pearl with Burgundy scallops. Seaton reworked the engine, making his custom a car built for both show and go.[1]
The car is still around, and is owned by concept car collector Joe Bortz.

The 1955 Chevy Barris “Jim Seaton car” is one of the most important and documented custom cars done by the most famous car customizer of the 1950s – 1980s. While this car could easily be driven to a Saturday night custom car show or driven on long tours it is a car that commands the respect of having a position in one of the finest car collections or museums either in the United States or overseas. We know that many serious collectors in the United States as well as those in Sweden and other countries that love American custom cars would give their eye teeth to have such a celebrated and fantastic looking custom in their collection. The car itself is in fantastic condition both cosmetically in terms of the paint and finish and mechanically. The engine compartment that is highly chromed out and detailed with George Barris’ various products that he was manufacturing in the 1950s. The engine compartment is believed to be entirely original along with the interior which is also believed to be original. We encourage those interested to review the current pictures, the various articles that have been written about this car so that you can be fully informed. This is a rare opportunity to own one of the most iconic pieces of Kustomizing history and George Barris history that exists today in almost its entire original form and has currently been in the same famous collection for well over a decade.
