Leroy Heinrichs and his fiancée Mazie Neece washing Leroy's 1947 Plymouth Club Coupe in front of the Neece family home on Margaret Street in San Jose, California, circa 1955. At this early stage, the car had already been mildly customized with shaved door handles, shortened hood trim, lakes pipes, subtle pinstriping around the wheel wells, and a set of 1954 Chrysler hubcaps.

Louie Stojanovich's 1947 Plymouth Club Coupe of San Jose, California. Louie, who was a member of the San Jose Rod and Wheelers car club, purchased the already customized Plymouth from Leroy Heinrichs in 1957. Louie took the car to the next level, adding functional lakes pipes, a pleated white interior by Modern Upholstery, and a 1954 Chrysler six-cylinder engine with triple carbs. The coupe was finished in 18 coats of Candy Burgundy lacquer with gold outlines and debuted at the San Mateo show in 1959.
