(Photos by Dom Damato\/DRD-Photos) –\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>Chip Foose took home is 4th Ridler award in 13 years at the 2015 Detroit Autorama, earning the honors for constructing a 1965 Impala called “The Imposter” which combined the classic large GM barge with a 2008 Corvette. The car is a display of design and metalworking that had even seasoned Autorama veterans spending lots of time inspecting the lines, proportions, and modifications that Foose and his crew made to the big coupe that they started with. We have tons of 2015 Detroit Autorama photo coverage coming this week from multiple contributors and the first is Dom Damato of DRD Photos. Dom made a last minute blast to the show and was happy that he did.<\/p>\n

We have had pretty much\u00a0unprecedented national coverage of the indoor car show scene this year so it is only fitting that we take you to one of the most significant ones in the genre (lots of people would argue THE most significant one in the genre!) to see what showed up. The greatness of this event is the fact that it really does cater to all parts of the hot rodding spectrum. There are ratty and traditional cars in the basement, lots of historic racers in the show for the historians that wander the aisles, modern machines for the late model fans, and the insanity of the Ridler field. The Vega in the lead photo was vying for the honor (and would have gotten our vote!)<\/p>\n

Anyway, here’s a first blast from DRD-Photos….we’ll be back with an avalanche more from Dom and other contributors tomorrow!<\/p>\n
