FOUND IT!
[Unknown, Beverly Hills, USA] Maverick, a sporty-looking convertible coupe a la Jaguar XK150, on the 1952 Cadillac chassis; six of them were reportedly built. [source: Muller & Hensel, Germany]. Another Database visitor, Rob Muirhead, adds that this rare model was built by Maverick Motors of Mountain View, California, from 1953 to 1955. They were three passenger cars on the Cadillac chassis, available with optional wheel base from from 122 to 130 inches; the finished car was 16 feet long. These where available with 1, 2, 3 or no doors and they had a spun copper instrument panel with a Stewart-Warner vacuum gauge, tachometer and a 160 mph speedometer; the car had plastic covered seats and floor and the floor was made from half inch marine plywood. According to Rob's source, 10 were built (not 6), one of them even had a roof [a removable hardtop ?]. http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=htt...l%3Den%26sa%3DN Attached image(s)

You are correct, it was in Excellence Magazine a couple months back: Henry Covington's "El Tiburon", based on a 356. [/quote] Thanks, that's what I thought, I'm not crazy (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) [/quote] (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) |
