  • Chip Foose's Madam X was inspired by a concept sketch from 1935 created by GM designer Art Ross that was originally commissioned for production. However, plans to produce the car fell through - until now. To closely mimic the vehicle's original design, Foose's creation has been built from a 1939 Cadillac Four Door 60 Special but in line with the Art Ross sketch. It has been totally re-bodied as a two-door coupe making it shorter and lower than ever before. While much of the design of Madam X remains true to the original, Chip Foose added some of his own unique styling touches.

    1940 Buick Special convertible is a a GM masterpiece, who said they never built Madam X. I loved that neighbors car, let's see only 70 + odd years ago.

    All I can say is wow, they made a car come alive after it's time. To bad the celebrities at that time in 1939 did not own this car.

    car companies should start designing cars like the classics from the 20s to 80s. i bet there would be plenty enthusiasts interested to buy cars with an old-school look

    There has to be enough of a market to produce that car in numbers. Perhaps crash protection is an obstacle. Styling reminds me of some of the beautiful old Talbo-Lagos and Lancias.

    • @Hitman-ds1ei
      @Hitman-ds1ei 4 года назад

      I don't buy the crash protection bullshit, how can anyone tout crash protection which is about putting the hard bit ( car body) around the soft bit (human body) then allow the choice to put the soft bit around the hard bit (motorcycle) without giving everyone the choice of what is mandatory cost of crash protection made into motor vehicles, i won't buy a modern vehicle any more as the cost of technology and the cost of repair to said technology, ABS, SRS, ASC, lane warning, TCS etc etc, none on this old girl, none on cars when I did my apprenticeship either

    Excuse my ignorance, as a non American, but can these beauties get a regular licence plate ? i.e.: Non "Historical vehicle" or anything of this short.
    So you can drive them without special limitations ?
