“Magnatude” is the picture and beauty, grace and performance featuring an LS-1 Chevy with a intercooled Magnacharger (of course!), Tremec 6 speed w/ polished Kugel 9”, Kugel I.F.S & I.R.S., custom Kugel chassis, chopped Carson top, DuVall windshield, hidden headlights, custom dash by Magnuson, Jim Griffin upholstery, tunneled seats and countless other subtle tricks. The paint is two-tone butterscotch pearl with champagne metallic. In traditional So-Cal hot rod fashion, the car features one off Foose designed “bigs and little’s” – 17x7” in front and 20x10” out back wrapped in Scorpion Zero rubber.
Well known throughout the automotive aftermarket for his “Magnacharger” super charger kits, Magnuson was humbled by his third major award this season. “We’ve had a lot of fun with the car this year,” he said. “Receiving an award like this here in Pleasanton competing against the best cars is as good as it gets,” he said.
The top 5 finalists for America’s Most Beautiful Street Rod presented by Flowmaster included Brent Scheider, Pleasanton, CA (’37 Ford Cabriolet), Jerry Magnuson, Ventura, CA (’32 Ford roadster), Cindy Warn, Aurora, OR (1939 Ford), Bill West, Tracy, CA (1939 LaSalle), John Delahunt, Rough & Ready, CA (1937 Ford Woodie).
