Another month, another Mecum auction. This time they are headed to Missouri, and among the over 750 vehicles we plucked out twelve modded out gems. So even if you can’t get over to the Kansas City convention center December 4-6 2014, take a gander at these pictures and find some fodder for your restomod dreams.

1950 Chevrolet Sedan

This street rod is super clean and dropped a little bit. Some really nice paint and chome work complete the mostly original look, with some nice custom wheels.

1967 Chevrolet Bel Air

Photo credit: Mecum

From the outside, this ’57 Bel Air looks almost original (except the wheels). However, the wheels are just foreshadowing to the fully custom interior. From the custom “57” embroidered on the rear bench seat to the center console with cup holders in the front, someone spent time to make sure these updates look the part.

1948 Ford Super Deluxe

For some reason I get really pumped up for these 30’s and 40’s restomods. Just seeing something with that much history and character having totally new life breathed into it is awesome. Wish it were me cruising down the highway in this badboy.

1969 Chevrolet Camaro

Photo credit: Mecum

This one is easily my favorite of the bunch. Take a classic ’69 Camaro, restore every last detail. Mix in a wicked black and red color scheme, some Ricaro seats and a whole lot of swag. Oh yeah, let’s not forget a 376ci HP LS3 making 525 horses. Damn I need to hit the lottery.

1951 Hudson

Photo credit: Mecum

Not a lot of details on this listing, but someone clearly put some love into it. Perfect for the guy who wants to impress their young kid with a burgundy modernized version of Doc Hudson from Disney’s Cars. Yeah, I have kids and if you don’t that reference just went sailing over your head.

Photo credit: Mecum

Either way, this is a really cool unique ride that someone has painstakingly restored and rebuilt. This one is going to be a steal.

1940 Ford Deluxe Coupe

My personal favorite of the Rods. I guess this would be considered a Street Rod as well. I just love the futuristic and simple take this restoration has. Electric green paint, clean interior, all electric gauges. Great looking ride.
