Curiously, the D-Rod is a mix of Detroit-based hardware. Under the Deuce-like skin, the car boasts a Chrysler 392 Hemi crate engine mated to a Chrysler 518 four-speed automatic transmission. The bureau said it chose the classic '32 Ford partly to commemorate the car's 75th anniversary.
The street rod's interior is a weird blend of snakeskin and Pendleton — the latter done in a Del Rio pattern blanket that is meant to reflect the city's Native American heritage, according to the builder.
Detroit Muscle will showcase the D-Rod at its exhibit at the 55th Detroit Autorama, which will be held March 9-11 at Cobo Hall.
