Looney Tuners Garage was started way back in the late 50s by two teenage brothers. They cranked out some rather far-out cars and trucks, having gained inspiration from the customizers of the time- George Barris, Gene Winfield, Ed Roth, etc., etc.. One car the brothers began working on back then, but never finished, was a 1961 Imperial convertible that they had acquired as a total glue bomb. It had a severely damaged and unrepairable grille (no outside headlights), extreme plastic
cement smudges all over the body, a damaged windshield, an interior with accessories (tape recorder, car phone, seat belts) heavily glued everywhere, and finally, a chassis that someone took a hot electric knife to.
Fast forward in time to the Crash Dummies Garage which recently picked up this car after some sixty years in storage. The Crash Dummies completed the build after meeting a twenty-one day deadline. Luckily for them was that crucial original parts came with their aged acquistion: hubcaps, complete interior, windshield, chassis and back bumper. The Crash Dummies put in red carpeting, lowered the car quite a bit, installed some custom taillights and named her "The Great White".
