Cadillac 1954 -  1956 custom & mild custom - Page 2 Empty Robert Gallery's '54 Coupe De Ville

Message  Predicta Mer 25 Déc - 21:00

Growing up in the early '80s on a farm in Iowa, Robert Gallery knew the value of keeping engines running. He used to help his dad out when they'd swap motors in some of the cars they had on the farm, including a few '70s-era Thunderbirds and LTDs. With a little more than 100 people in his hometown of Masonville (30 miles outside of Cedar Rapids), having a car to drive to school and knowing how to keep it running were of major importance.

Cadillac 1954 -  1956 custom & mild custom - Page 2 0910sr10

After college and still in his early twenties, Robert left Iowa and was soon on his way to Dublin, California. As destiny began to shine its light on the young man, he began expanding his car collection-first with a pair of '66 Lincoln Continentals. He'd always liked the luxurious look of the T-birds and LTDs from his past, but Robert appreciated the lines of mid-'50s Cadillacs, too, and felt there was nothing with more class than one of those big, old Coupe De Villes.

Robert mentioned to his friend, Darrell Hayes of Darrell Hayes Concepts, that he was looking for a suitable car to build, and then Hayes mentioned it to Marcos Garcia of Lucky 7 Customs, with whom he worked on a couple of projects. Lucky 7 Customs is well known for its custom car building abilities and stunning paintjobs.

Garcia happened to know where a stock Series 62 '54 Cad was sitting in a nearby engine shop where it had been dropped off for some work but never picked up. After a few years the shop had put a lien on the car and wanted it out of their way, and had it up for sale. Robert was able to purchase the Cad for the price of the rebuilt engine and transmission and two years of storage fees-a pretty good deal considering the car was basically in good shape except for just a few dings here and there.

For car builders who are in business, the truly successful ones are those who listen to what their customers want and figure out a way to get it to them without breaking the bank (theirs or their customer's). Some of the initial ideas for this Caddy were to chop the top, shave most of the bumps (leaving some of the original trim intact for flavor), and add some custom touches that would look like they belonged on the car.

Cadillac 1954 -  1956 custom & mild custom - Page 2 0910sr11

Lucky 7 started on the project by chopping the roof (2 1/2 inches up front and 4 inches in the rear) and then leaning the rear window forward for a sleeker appearance. The trim on the hood was removed and the corners rounded, and the same treatment was done on the trunk and doors. The cowl, fender seams, and rockers were all molded to make the car look slippery, and the drip rails were restyled to accent the custom quarter-window roof rail trim.

The grill is also custom made, which uses horizontally mounted aluminum blades that were then chromed. Opting for keyless entry, electronic door poppers have been installed, the door handles shaved, and the door spear shortened 18 inches. And though it might look like factory trim pieces, the belt line trim that runs the length of the door tops and quarters were custom made from brass and then plated.

On other sections of the car more trim was removed, but other custom pieces, such as the speed bump humps on the forward area of the quarter-panels, were added because it helped break up the large expanse of metal. Another area that received a good amount of attention is the rear bumper, which uses ends from a '57 Chevy, allowing functional exhaust tips to run through the bumpers. It takes an enormous amount of knowledge to figure out how parts from different cars can work together to not only look right but also make it appear like it was meant to be there. That's one of the reasons Lucky 7 Customs enjoys the exalted reputation that it does.

 Looking like it could have come off the factory line this way, the interior features specially made chocolate-colored fabric that was pleated and stitched together at Bob Devine Designs in Pittsburg, California. Due to the owner's size (6-foot 7 inches at 325 pounds), the split bench seat was lowered 5 inches and the steering column came down 3 inches.

Looking like it could have come off the factory line this way, the interior features speci The gauges were restored by Redline Gauge Works, and a Kenwood flat-screen stereo controls the concert-quality sound equipment provided by Arc Audio of Modesto, California.

The gauges were restored by Redline Gauge Works, and a Kenwood flat-screen stereo controlsThe extensive effort put into the custom bodywork performed on the Cad was also channeled into the chassis and engine. To get the car down on the ground Lucky 7 lowered the front coils and de-arched the rear spring. Monroe gas shocks were mounted to each corner, and the brakes for the vehicle (which tips the scales at just over 2 tons!) are power-assisted drums.

Cadillac 1954 -  1956 custom & mild custom - Page 2 0910sr13

And though Cadillac had been producing V-8 engines since 1915, the 331 found in Robert's De Ville was of the first group of overhead-valve V-8s Cadillac began offering in their cars in 1949. Much of Robert's engine was left stock (but rebuilt and balanced by Joe's Engine Machine Shop in Concord, California), and it was assembled by Logan Stipe of Lucky 7 Customs and detailed with a fair amount of chrome accents.

With the bodywork out of the way, it was time to roll the behemoth into the paint booth where a custom-mixed Capone Pearl was created from PPG's Vibrance line of paints and then squirted over the massive car (the wheelbase on this beast is 129 inches while the overall length is more than 200 inches!). Marcos Garcia then followed up with a subtle scallop and pinstripe to finish off the exterior.

At 325 pounds and standing 6-foot 7 inches, Robert Gallery cannot be confused for "tiny." As such, a few modifications to the interior needed to be made to accommodate the 29-year-old. Plus, after chopping the car's top, the necessity to create a comfortable driving space became even more important. The six-way power bench seat had to be eliminated so that the new seat's framework could be lowered a full 5 inches. Using a specially reproduced fabric to mimic the original factory material, Bob Devine Designs, in Pittsburg, California, stitched up a beige two-tone-pleated pattern for the split bench front and rear seating. The headliner was done in suede, while the carpet is a chocolate-colored, German-style closed-loop.

Since the seating was lowered, the steering column was dropped a total of 3 inches and the dash was treated to stock gauges that have been reworked by Redline Gauge Works. The factory radio was then gutted, and the stock radio control knobs were used to adjust the levels of the Vintage Air A/C and heat system.

Cadillac 1954 -  1956 custom & mild custom - Page 2 0910sr14

An electronically-controlled mini glovebox door was added to the center of the dash and a Kenwood flat-screen stereo was installed to control the concert-quality sound equipment provided by Arc Audio of Modesto, California. A custom metal skin was then fabbed for the upper section of the dash and painted in a two-tone, cream and bronze layout.
Cadillac 1954 -  1956 custom & mild custom - Page 2 0910sr16
Once finished, the car was debuted at the Grand National Roadster Show, then appeared at the Sacramento Autorama and the San Francisco Rod, Custom & Motorcycle Show. It has picked up major awards everywhere it's been shown, including the '09 Most Elegant Custom award-the highest award given at the San Francisco show for a custom car. Robert's history tells us he isn't the type to collect cars and not drive them, and he reports his cruiser is not a car that sits in the garage, having already racked up a few miles on the odometer.

But no one needs to tell Robert Gallery he's come a long way in a short time, from a spec of a town located in Iowa's farmland to the big city in Northern California, and he knows it. But what ties him to his humble past is a love of cars-and it's probably something that will never leave him, no matter what life holds for him in his future.

Cadillac 1954 -  1956 custom & mild custom - Page 2 Empty 1955 Cadillac Coupe De Ville

Message  Predicta Jeu 26 Déc - 20:49


Government is big. Hit movies are big. Texas is big (however, Alaska is even bigger). Problem is, government is only going to get bigger, so why not join in and build a car that’s bigger than most?
Cadillac 1954 -  1956 custom & mild custom - Page 2 1205rc10
Colorado kustom enthusiast Roger Jetter decided to do just that. After playing with a few “smaller” ’57 Chevys through the years (including the resurrection of a survivor ISCA kustom from 1964), he embarked on building a big ’48 Cadillac Sedanette, a relic found next to a creek in Kansas. A year into the project, however, the larger ’55 Cadillac featured here fell into his lap. It was bigger than the ’48 by a few inches and came complete with a trailer load of extra parts.
Cadillac 1954 -  1956 custom & mild custom - Page 2 1205rc11
The 1955 Cadillac Coupe De Ville was someone else’s failed project and the big body had been reattached to the frame by only four bolts. Once home, it came back off to rectify past mistakes. The ’78 Pontiac Trans Am subframe had been badly installed, so Roger and his brother, Dan, set to work fixing it in Roger’s backyard garage. Being a rust-free Colorado car, the underside of the Cad was cleaned, sealed, and treated to Lizard Skin sound-deadening material, as was the interior. After building engine and transmission mounts for the 500-inch Caddy engine, the frame was painted urethane black and the body was once again installed—this time using all the bolts.
Cadillac 1954 -  1956 custom & mild custom - Page 2 1205rc12
Roger is a longtime kustom connoisseur, so the fun part for him was planning and executing the body mods. He wanted a traditionally inspired kustom, but considering the car’s size and stature, he knew care had to be taken in both design and execution to maintain the gorgeous Cadillac lines. The overall effect needed to be subtle, not gaudy. His background as a graphic artist helped him visualize the end result of the many planned modifications; he worked toward the final product guided by those visions.
Cadillac 1954 -  1956 custom & mild custom - Page 2 1205rc13
The grille is the most obvious change to the car’s forward appearance. To facilitate the new look, though, both Dagmar support bars had to be narrowed 2 1/2 inches, moving them out and up toward the upper grille trim. The stock ’55 grille and crossbar were removed and a new grille fabricated from 1/8-inch flat aluminum stock laser cut to conform to the shape of the bumper and hood. There are 46 bars, with an 1/8-inch gap between each one, and park lights hidden behind the corners. From a distance the grille looks solid, but it allows plenty of air to the aluminum radiator.
Cadillac 1954 -  1956 custom & mild custom - Page 2 1205rc14
Moving upward, the hood was peaked with 3/16-inch rod and the headlight hoods lengthened 1/2 inch. The side scoops were opened up, with the stock side trim disappearing into the void. Each scoop has three additional spears that were removed from a car in a Pull-A-Part yard; Roger has no idea what their original application was. The shapes of the scoops were designed to visually flow into the handbuilt metal fender skirts. Those skirts, incidentally, are 74 inches long and were built in three 26-inch sections, rolled on a Harbor Freight roller and welded together. They are secured with six bolts each.
Cadillac 1954 -  1956 custom & mild custom - Page 2 1205rc15
Around back, the decklid was peaked to match the hood and the bumper was heavily reworked, although it’s so well designed you’d be hard pressed to notice the changes. The stock exhaust outlets at the bumper ends were typical of early Cadillacs—completely rusted through. Roger noticed that his ’48 Caddy bumper ends fit the shape of the ’55 opening, so he welded a pair to the ’55 centersection. The license plate was originally an afterthought on ’55 Caddys—simply bolted above the bumper. Roger wanted a more integrated look. His son had a ’59 Caddy parts car, so the license box was robbed from the front bumper (his son still doesn’t know it’s missing!). Ogden Chrome in Ogden, Utah, handled all the chrome work and Jose at Mile Hi Polishing did the stainless. A pair of ’94 Cadillac dual exhaust tips tucks up nicely against the bumper.
Cadillac 1954 -  1956 custom & mild custom - Page 2 1205rc16
Inside the spacious cabin, a ’56 Cadillac dash was installed because Roger felt its center glove compartment would work better with the Vintage Air A/C unit, essential for those long summer trips (yes, this cruiser gets driven). Ed Banes at Banes Interiors stitched the stock power seat—as well as the balance of the interior—in pearl white Naugahyde and contrasting purple fabric similar to a stock ’55 Cadillac material. Grape carpet covers the floors. The dash was stripped of its leather and painted roof color, as were the door moldings.

Speaking of color, did you notice the car is two-toned? Very subtle. The top is painted 1955 Ford Regency Purple. The paint on the body has been kustom-mixed to match a pearl printing ink—Roger calls it Lollipop Lavendar. The trim separating the two colors at the rear window has been lengthened 6 inches on each side to bring more color onto the deck. And did you notice those two scoops at the rear of the roof? You’ll never guess what those came from. No, they’re not a ’58 Impala. Thinking outside the box is of prime import when building a kustom—so, too, is keeping a few secrets!

Once the body mods were finished, Roger drove the car to Len Hoogland for finish bodywork, and then to Wright Weldon’s paint booth, where Weldon applied the glossy PPG finish and did the polishing. Final assembly took place back in Roger’s backyard garage. On its first outing—Greybeard’s Crème de le Chrome Auto Show in November 2010—the Coupe De Ville captured a First in the Full Kustom Class, plus Outstanding Use of Color-Kustom, the first of many awards the huge Cadillac has received. That’s one more reason bigger is better—the Cadillac’s massive trunk will come in handy for hauling home all those trophies.
