1956 Aerodyne Streamliner Coupe
This breathtaking Streamliner is a hand built one off Coupe called Aerodyne.
Conceived and created by John Toom, manager of model shop at Nissan Design, International in La Jolla Ca. from 1982-2000. Johns talent and contribution to Nissan Design was even honored with a tribute sculpture by Nissan Design.
John spent over 10 years from the early sketches to the almost finished product, before he passed away in 2001.
This stunning vehicle is based on a 1956 Jaguar XK140 frame and powered by a freshly rebuilt 3.8l XKE motor with only 700 miles.
The design has a definite late 30’s French streamliner influence and is simply glorious. The attention to detail and the pure craftsmanship exposed is outstanding. This is a true hand built car using no aftermarket parts. The door handles, the gauges, the dashboard, everything has been designed and created for this car.
After Mr. Toom passing, a California collector and enthusiast purchased the car and had the project finished to the highest degree.
This car has never been offered for sale before and is in Concourse condition with about 700 miles driven since completion.
Extensive documentation on this very special car is available to the interested collector.
Please contact us with requests for information or an appointment to see the vehicle.
Located in California, worldwide shipping is gladly arranged.
