355 V8-Powered 1940 Chevrolet Hot Rod 'Tinmama'

355 V8-Powered 1940 Chevrolet Hot Rod 'Tinmama'

This 1940 Chevrolet Hot Rod, named 'Tinmama,' was built from scratch by Tinman Customs. Originally a Chevrolet two-door sedan, it has been extensively modified with a custom bodywork and a relocated headlamp setup for a streamlined exterior. Inside, it features a custom dashboard and hand-made three-tone leather seats. Its original engine was swapped for a modern 355 cubic inch V8 engine. An air suspension system allows for adjustable ground clearance, enhancing its street usability.
