Voodoo Magic: Jerry Gardner's Voodoo Special

13 Chassis and Drivetrain Come Together Progress was made on building the chassis and drivetrain in 1954 and 1955, and it started coming together nicely. From what we can tell, the chassis was never tested, but it looked great with a clean design, nice fabrication, and the powerful Caddy mill tied to the Lincoln Zephyr transmission with a Columbia 2 speed at the rear. He was so proud of his efforts that he brought his unfinished “ Voodoo Special ” to a car show one time – Forsyth Park, in Kingston New York. This was just the chassis and drivetrain, though – the body had not yet been completed. Jerry certainly thought big! The pictures below were taken at Jerry ’ s parents house as progress continued.
