Rich Zocchi - Walnut Creek, CA, USA (original builder)
Re: '59 Custom
Sorry to hear that Richard passed away. I wonder what happened to the custom... I've seen lots of pictures, but I have no idea how old they are, and if they were taken when the car had new ownership.

Re: '59 Custom
IIRC, Dan, He completed that car late in 2001 and showed it at Sacramento Autorama the next February. As with most car builders or designers, after a few major shows it was sold, and he moved on to a different project. Last I saw this '59 custom, it was owned by someone in the southeast, maybe Florida.

Here's a bunch more pix of "Furious I". I don't think it's a lighting effect - the car appears to have once been painted yellow, and then green (or vice versa). Which color is it now - and, where is it?!?

A bunch of the interior and engine...

Richard was a customer of mine before he passed away several years ago. The paint color was a pearl yellow-green, and would change in different lights. I recall seeing this car at its debut at Autorama, and a few later shows. Haven't seen it for several years now.
