I’ve been attending the SEMA Show (Specialty Equipment Market Association) for approaching 20 years and thought I’d seen everything when, a couple of years ago, a Las Vegas artist created an astounding and gigantic vehicle for the Burning Man gathering in the Black Rock Desert. But on Tuesday I saw a vehicle at the show that was the most amazing I’ve ever seen, at SEMA or anywhere else, for that matter. The vehicle was a 1958 Chevrolet Impala with a Continental kit, and seemingly every non-glass or rubber surface was covered with what looked like sculptured aluminum but was, in fact, paint.
