Finding the Alexandria

h5>ALEXANDER BROTHERS ALEXANDRIA

Based on a 1955 Ford four door custom car designer Harry Bradley designed a wild shop truck for the Detroit based Alexander Brothers’ Custom Shop.

In the early 1960’s Mike and Larry Alexander teamed up with Harry Bradley to create another uniquely restyled custom creation. Based on a 1955 Ford four door sedan and using parts from many other vehicles Harry Bradley designed the “Alexandria” for the shop. Quite a bit of time was spend on the project, and the overal shape was very clearly visable in the few photos that have since been published on this project. But no photos of the finished project. Simply because the shop never finished the car. In order to generate some money needed for a move into a new shop the project was sold and nothing of it was ever seen again.

Joey Ukrop has been discussing the Alexandria with Mike Alexander and decided to go on a hunt for it. Trying to find out what happend to the car after it was sold, and ultimately finding out if it is still around today.

Joe is sharing some amazing photos of the Alexandria from Mike Alexanders personal collection on the HAMB. Check out the HAMB article there and share as much as possible. Hopefully the right people will see it and hopefully more will be known about the car and its fate in days, weeks to come.
