5 Cars of the Past, Rebuilt Today

2. Cadzzilla

This model was on fire during the 50s and the 60s. Its appealing looks have made it to become one of the most stylist cars during the same period and this got continued till today.

The Cadzilla was designed by Larry Ericson and was built by Boyd Coddington. Boyd designed this car for the popular guitarist, Billy Gibbons from the band ‘ZZ Top’.

Boyd has designed plenty of designer cars during his lifetime, but Cadzilla remains one of the best of his creation.

The lowered roof and the low ride of the car was the centerfold of this car. Even when the car was parked, it looked same appealing as it used to be on the roads.

The car got its name from three words; Cadillac, ZZ Top and Godzilla. Billy Gibbons paid around $900,000 to get this car built according to his own way.

Gibbons also got a customized license plate for Cadzzila. The license plate said: ‘I8TOKYO’, which originally said: ‘I ate Tokyo’.
