1959 La Dawri Sebring
La Dawri produced a number of high quality bodies including this Sebring. Let’s check this one out!
Rarity
Custom bodies were all the rage in the late 50’s and 60’s. La Dawri became one of the largest manufacturers, offering bodies for a wide variety of donor chassis. This Sebring is the smaller body, intended for a 90 inch wheelbase. It is mated to a 1959 VW Beetle chassis. Take a look at the familiar VW pan layout and be sure to check the engine compartment where you can see the builders integrated part of the existing original body into the fiberglass.
