ON THE COVER: Shaun Dove's dad dug hot cars. Although Pop had several, the car Shaun remembers best was a '65 Impala, and that's when the craving began. As the epitome of Detroit Iron, this behemoth is from an era when every car had its own face and its own identity. Now in his thirties, Shaun has done his own rare SS even better. Its 409/409 has been thoroughly modernized, the chassis and running gear have been upgraded accordingly, and its ruddy complexion is 14 years old! With this image, Henry D has captured its very essence--long, limber, and locked in a time warp.
