Jonathan Ward took a 1950 Buick Roadmaster ICON Derelict out for a drive while he describes all the work that went into it. He explained the project begins with the body being removed from the factory chassis so it can be 3D scanned. This gives them an exact 3d blueprint which allows them to know exactly the space they can work with. Art Morrison used this file to design and build a chassis which could run all their upgraded components and still attach to the factory body mount points. Riding on that chassis is a LS7 connected to a 4L85E four-speed automatic transmission. Jonathan says a professional video is being made so you can expect some great footage coming out soon on this project.
