Before the rebuild began, the Vanderhelms talked to a lot of different people at car shows, trying to get
the names of reputable shops where they could take their project. Finally Wadson's in Edmonton, Alberta,
was chosen and they did most of the work on the vehicle. Beyond the fabrica on, the chassis had to be
reconstructed and rear suspension was added from a Corve e. In the end they wanted something a li le
more 'cool looking' so they cut the whole back suspension off, narrowed the back end 5" and kicked it up
3". Before it was done, the car was stretched 4" to retain the stock firewall. It's more of a show car than a
true muscle car. It has an automa c transmission, air condi oning, power windows, and keyless entry…
the creature comforts. Rob drove it out of Wadsons' in 2006.
