These pics are taken of the "Trendero" a '57 Ford Ranchero built by Trend Automotive in '61 in Lyons, IL. It went through three color changes from Candy Flake, to Yellow Pearl ('62 Car Craft Magazine) to last Candy Flake. It was built by Dave Puhl and John Malik, last shown at the New York Worlds Fair in '65 after that they closed the shop and it disappeared. I found it in Sept '04 in Florida, these are pics of it as it sits today. We are making plans to try to put it in the Darryl Starbird Rod and Custom Hall of Fame. The older custom crowd will like these, this is my time and I own and love customs.
