Voodoo Magic: Jerry Gardner's Voodoo Special

29 Creating The Signature Grille Nearly all work came to a grinding halt when Jerry went into the military in November 1956 —save the grille. Jerry was 22 years old, and plans to finish his car were still top of mind. He took the pattern for the grill he wanted to build with him to Germany and found a company that specialized in grills for automobiles.

He gave them the template for the shape and size and the rest is history. Voodoo Gardner Special: April, 2011
