1959 Winged Express Photo Gallery, View 84 Photos!
For decades Larry Weiner of Performance West Design has been creating concept vehicles for the Detroit Three and others. If you have ever been to SEMA, read a car magazine, or looked at cool cars on the internet then you have amired Larry's work. This breath taking 1959 Chevrolet Sedan Delivery is one he created for himself, and man does it ever deliver!
The excitment begins the minute you spin the ignition key and awaken the Turn Key Engine Supply built 700 horsepower Chevrolet LS2 that's equipped with a Kenne Bell Blowzilla 2.4 liter Twin Screw Supercharger and Intercooler, Air Flow Research aluminum cylinder heads and a Comp Cam. A Keisler Engineering T56 6 speed Tremec transmission provides the maximum in exhaust system. Insuring fade free stops from high speed are Stainless Steel Brakes Force 10 V8 - 8 Piston Calipers that work in conjunction with 15" slotted and ventilated rotors. Custom stainless steel brake and fuel lines were crafted by Classic Tube while engine cooling is handled by a Raceware Aluminum Radiator. The in the weeds stance is provided by Air Ride Technologies, complemented by a one offset of custom 20" billet wheels by MC2, matched with BF Goodrich G-Force T/A KDW ultra high-performance tires. Each wheel took 16 HOURS on the CNC machine!
The body is bathed in PPG Platinum Metallic by the artisans at Aero Collision & Fabrication. Inside the Winged Express, Quiet Ride Solutions created the ultimate environment for the SONY Xplod audio and video entertainment system and custom interior that's covered in Katzkin multi hued leather, all installed by Syndicate Automotive Concepts. And, just to be sure it's always cool inside, the Winged Express is equipped with a Vintage Air System. THE 32" LCD FLAT PANEL VIDEO SCREEN DISAPPEARS INTO THE FLOOR. More than $300k was invested to realize a vision, not to merely restore a car. No expense spared really means that in this case.
Add it all up and you've got the Chevrolet Winged Express. Armed with its ground pounding supercharged and intercooled engine, the Winged Express is complemented by a chassis equipped with just the right mix of components to harness its awesome power. The Winged Express may look deceptively stock, but it's really a wolf in hiding under vintage sheet metal.
She's been covered in multiple magazines to boot. Street Rod Milestones, Chrome and Flame, Chevy Rumble, Cruisin' Magazine, ISCA Showstopper, Street Rodder, and Custom Classic Trucks to name a few...
The 1959 Chevrolet "Winged Express" debuted at the Grand National Roadster Show where it won 1st in Class and Best Paint Truck. The next stop was Autorama in Detroit at COBO Hall were she won 1st in class for three different categories. She then stopped by Blackie's Fresno Autorama and Goodguy's Del Mar, CA show. A trophy earned at every stop.
Aside from Detroit, she has never been shown west of the Mississippi. So, if you are looking to go on a trophy conquest, she is now for sale, ready to take the east coast by storm. |
