The Deuce Coupe offered here is a Hemi-equipped hot rod. Jim Kroll of Ohio, the car's previous owner, compiled its well-documented and detailed history. Glen “Rudy' Rudisill and his father built the car in 1957 in York, PA, for Laverne A Stetzer. The car arrived at the shop in pieces and was assembled with hands-on input from "Stetz". The five-window body was channeled over the frame with all metal work, including the filled-in top, preformed by Rudisill utilizing the old lead method. Finished in GM Bahama Blue Metallic, the hot rod attitude was achieved with a '49 Mercury dash, cycle fenders, Ford brakes and ' 52 Chrysler 331 cubic inch Hemi engine. Having invested about $10000 in his hot rod (a considerable sum in 1957) Stetz sold his car to Bill Roush of Violet Hills. During the 30 years Roush owned the car, he performed a certain degree of engine work, although the car continually remained in dry storage for 26 years. Karl Nischwitz, a former drag racer, mechanic and 50-year member of the Motor Menders Club, acquired the car in the early 1990s and after considerable mechanical work, brought the car back to proper running order. He sold the car in 1996, and the blue Deuce Coupe passed through a documented succession of owners, all in PA, before it made its way to Ohio where Jim Kroll compiled its well-researched history in 2007. As for its alleged racing history, a timing slip accompanying the car indicates a running at the US 30 Drag Strip in the early 70s. Additionally, a winner's sticker on the quarter windows indicates a Class Win at the same drag way. The hot rod benefits from remarkable originality - from the paint that Rudy applied in 1957 to the engine and original seat upholstery. Its history has been substantiated by period photography and by an unbroken chain of owners., Sold ,, Advertiser Since 1970
