The 1955 Dodge Firebomb is unique among midcentury dream cars, and not merely because of its hand-crafted bodywork: It is the direct successor to the popular Dodge Firearrows, which would have never progressed beyond the concept stage but for the vision of Detroit entrepreneur Eugene Casaroll. A fully functional preproduction prototype, the Firebomb presaged the exclusive Dual-Ghia, chosen ride of the era’s movie stars, musicians, and celebrities—a second life befitting this effortlessly glamorous design.
