Yahoo Autos Icon hosting Icons of Design event to highlight restomods and all kinds of other art
California-based Icon is bringing together artists and independent brands from all over the country for a one-day charity event called Icons of Design. Held in the Los Angeles area, the show will feature some of Icon's resto-modded cars along with the work of numerous other artists.
The recently-unveiled 1,000-horsepower 1970 Chevrolet Suburban (pictured) will make its public debut at the event. It's the first Suburban modified by Icon, and it cost over $1 million to build. Other brands from the automotive space will participate in the event, including a firm called Ruffian Cars that puts a modern spin on classic Ford models such as the Galaxie 500, Porsche builder Singer, and Meyers Manx.
