Long Description: Nicknamed "Flatliner," this 1955 Ford Sunliner convertible was custom-built by RMR Dream Cars in Hudson, FL. Finished in a Deep Impact Blue with a black cloth top, it is powered by a 5.4-liter supercharged Shelby GT500 engine with an upgraded blower mated to a 6-speed manual transmission. During the build, a 1956 Ford grille, headlight and taillight buckets were added to the car. The original 1955 side trim was maintained. The convertible top irons have been reworked to provide a smoother look; the bumpers have been narrowed, smoothed and chrome-plated; and the rear wheel wells have been widened to allow for the custom 20x12 rear and 18x8 front wheels. The car sits on a custom chassis that has a Fatman front clip, RideTech 4-link suspension and reinforced rails. A RideTech ShockWave system was also installed and includes integrated air spring and shock absorbers mated with RideTech air management to control the suspension. Stopping power is provided by Wilwood 6-piston caliper brakes up front and 4-piston out back. The custom black leather-and-suede interior showcases a smoothed dash, Speed Hut gauges, custom steering wheel by Con2R, aftermarket stereo and air conditioning.
