Silhouette

The candy apple red, all steel-bodied Sillouhette was hand formed and built by Bill Cushenbery, starting with a modified '56 Buick frame. The car was completed by the summer of 1962, and sported a fuel injected Buick engine and wire wheels. These highlights were replaced in 1963 by a dual quad 429 Ford and slotted mag wheels. The Show Car was then purchased by Ford to tour the with the ICAS events as a featured car of the Ford Custom Car Caravan.

The complete half of the windshield in front of the integrated roll-bar is hinged at the base to tilt forward. The steering column also raises to allow for easy access into the red and white leather interior, which features a "floating" instrument panel and bucket seats.
