Owned by Almir Rocha from São Paulo, Brazil. After a while driving his heavily customized '59 F-100 truck, which he named Blue Rock, he got a hankering to build something new. As soon as he saw one of Harley's Night Rod Specials, an all-black, badass version of its V-Rod muscle bike, Almir knew that was the look he wanted. And to keep the free and rebellious spirit of his two-wheeled muse, Almir had the perfect base: a '28 Chrysler Model 72 Roadster that used to be a Carretera (old cars prepared for racing, very popular in Brazil and Argentina in the '50s and '60s).
Alexandre "Ale" Benevides from Hot Company Brasil (HCB) in Salto, São Paulo, Brazil built the Night Rock - the name given to the Chrysler because Almir's last name means rock in English. Blacked-out cars can look so bland, but it works on this.

The all-black theme carries into every part of the car, including the interior. The only items that shine are the Dakota Digital gauges. The column is from Flaming River and the pedals are Wilwood.
