The glamorous Dual Ghia was patterned after the racy 1955 Dodge Firebomb show car. Built on a performance-oriented Dodge D-500 chassis with a Dodge Hemi engine, the intricately sculpted body was crafted in Italy by Ghia, the same firm that produced the Firebomb. Prices were so high and production was so limited that only a fortunate few were able to secure a place on the waiting list to buy one. Entertainers like Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Peter Lawford favored the cars and they rapidly gained a reputation as Rat Pack vehicles. A total of 100 Dual-Ghias were built, 98 convertibles and two hardtops.
