We met Tina Reeves and her husband Butch at a local Midwest Car Show and were drawn to the sleek design on her chopped up '59 Buick. The whole body on this roadster was made from the Buick quarter panels alone, and a custom frame and suspension support the car now. It features a cool retro Tiki-themed interior under that sparkly orange paint, and Tina drives this Chevy powered monster to cruises and events all around. This is one of those cars that illustrates "outside the box" thinking and is a ton of fun!
