This 1929 Ford roadster was built originally by George Barris for Charles Kirkorian of Fresno and previously owned by legend Blackie Gejian - the car is now part of the Barris family again and returned home after 60 years! Kirkorian engineered and constructed the engine and undercarriage. He then contacted Barris who designed and built the complete body and painted it with forty coats of translucent Kandy Burgundy over pure pearl of essence imported from Sweden with added actual crushed diamond dust. The complete frame and undercarriage is chrome plated plus all the accessories on the 550 horse powered Cadillac Eldorado engine. It features a hand-formed grille, deck lid, and rear pan to fit the taillights. We couldn’t be more excited to see this historic beauty here in Texas, and thanks to Team Barris for bringing it out!
