This striking Muroc roadster is designed by Chip Foose and Jerry Kugel. It has a powdercoated Kugel Komponents frame and the body is a combination of aluminum and steel, being hand-formed by Marcel and Sons. The suspension consists of all four corners being independent with coilover shock absorbers. The components are detailed as one would expect with such a car and are billet, polished and chromed.

The power is derived from a new Street & Performance (Mena, Arkansas) 5.7-liter, 405-hp LS6 Chevrolet Corvette ZO6. It is connected to a new GM 4L60-E automatic transmission with a Lokar shifter. The engine bay is also highly detailed and features the exterior colors in tasteful highlights. The system is cooled by a Mattson radiator. The car rides on Budnik wheels that are fitted with Goodyear Eagle HP tires. The wheels in the front measure 17- x 7-inches and the rears are 20- x 10-inches and create the proper stance for this roadster.

The vehicle is well-detailed throughout and was built by Angie's Auto in San Bernadino, California. The beautiful interior is presented in black, has tasteful patterns on the seats and door panels and was executed by Gabe Lopez. The two-tone paint is by Showtime Auto Body, there are also attractive and subtle pinstripes. The Muroc Roadster has a sharply raked windshield and contains many appealing design elements - all finished to a high level. A Budnik steering wheel is attached to a tilt steering column to personalize your driving position for comfort. It is reported that this is one of ten examples built with an all-metal body while the balance of the similar cars wear a fiberglass body of similar style.

Simply stunning, the Muroc Roadster was featured in Street Rodder Magazine in December 2000 and has been the winner of many car show awards, including best of show on occasion. It remains in “beautiful and unmarked condition.”
