Tech Specs “Henderson Hustler”
Owner: Jerome Marquez
Vehicle: 1968 Chevy Impala

Engine: Along with previous owner Lance Charles, Jerome installed a ’98 Vortec engine with fuel injection.
Body/Paint: Buying the car in decent shape, Jerome took the ’68 to Guero’s Customs in Las Vegas, who laid the Teal DuPont candy paint, while Robert Jasso of No Limit took on the task of patterning out the top. Gary Jensen finished it off by striping it.
Interior: J&S Upholstery out of Henderson, NV stitched up the gray velour interior. The dash was painted to match the car, and a color bar and custom steering wheel were added to finish up the interior.
