Visit to the Gilmore Car Museum on August 3, 2013. A special display 'American Legends' currently showcases several hot rods and custom cars. This 1933 Ford was customized in the early fifties, taking on an informal nickname of "Oliver Hine's 25 Varieties" because the car was built by Oliver Hine, who used parts from 25 different cars. Here are some details: 1949 - 1951 Cadillac 331 cubic inch V-8 engine; fenders from six 1938 Chevrolets and a Brewster Town Car grille shortened 6 inches.
