After Herb Glock bought Chuck Porter's 1949 Ford Pickup Ray Farhner sprayed 16 hand-rubbed coats of Buick Seminole red lacquer on the car
A photo of Ray Farhner's X-Ray that Grier Lowry captured on August 25, 1963. With its sleek, silver contours and futuristic body, this show car looked like it drove straight out of a science fiction novel and onto the lush backdrop of a lakeside view. The X-Ray wasn't just a feast for the eyes; its supercharged engine promised a roar as impressive as its space-age aesthetic. Photo by Grier Lowry, from The Ray Soff Photo Collection.
Ray Farhner's 1963 Chevrolet Corvette, known as Outer Limits, was restyled by Ray in 1963.

Farhners's Custom Shop was owned and operated by legendary car builder Ray Farhner of Kansas City, Missouri.
