Oh my gosh!!!!!!!!

That rear roof line makes all the difference in the world!!!!!!!

Those ugly side "things" instantly turn sleek and stylish like magic. Wow! I've always thought these were some of the ugliest cars of that era but that one change totally remakes the car. I would love to drive that! I would do something with the front grill to make it more aerodynamic like the rear or at least smaller. Then I'd leave the rest of it alone - as if it came from the factory like that.

That is an incredible transformation.

I wonder how a bullet nose Studebaker would look if it were given a fast back.

 

Something like this...

You guys are the best!

 

Moose, what about a green top on those first two?? Paul

 

Looks better to me. Can we try that first one with the darker green top? Paul

 

This one is it...go for it.

 

That's the direction I'm leaning too. Choosing colors is a bitch, isn't it!

 

Hi guys, I am debating on wheels for my F100, can you help me out? (This isn't my truck, although mine will look the same)

Thank you for your help!

 

58 Impalas are one of my favorite 50's Chevy's, in particular the rear roofline with the scoop/vent and the scallops along the edge. Apparently lots of people like '58's because they're way over my budget. I bought a '53 because I like the overall looks and the roof is shaped somewhat the same. I'd love to see that 58 roof or even just the back vent thing on the 53's roof. The 53 is mine, the 58 is from google. Thanks to any of you who would be willing to try this for me.

 

Thanks madfish. There has to trashed 58's that would still have a decent roof. I wonder how much of a trick it might be to graft the parts from a 58 roof onto the 53. I even got this idea of making the vent a 3rd brake light. Would it be possible to shrink the size of that vent down a little? Proportions might be an issue I hadn't thought about. Thanks for your time. You guys do a great service.

 

Thanks, but credit for the roof really should go to James D who came up with the original idea.

I just put a couple of tweaks onto his excellent work, like this:

 

The more I looked at this the more I decided square and "SWOOPY" don't mix sooooo.....

 

Wow! Thanks you madfish. I gotta look at this for a while. You may have saved me from a whole lot of time and money spent without knowing what I'd have in the end. Having it in front of me makes me wonder if my great idea was as good as I thought. The swoopy lines of the 58 may not be what I want on the boxy 53. Time to sleep on it and think more tomorrow. I appreciate your magic fingers on the keyboard!

 

Yours look amazing, I just tried to restore it to what was posted. Mine looks like something from Roger Rabbit. Nice job

 

Damn....

 

I know. Been working on this a bit today, kinda hard to figure its theme but its fun nonetheless. Maybe have my version in a day or two. Kinda leaning more in the good ol boy viewpoint though. lol

 

N A I L E D I T !

 

I need some art done for a custom car plaque idea that im throwing around in my head.
I dont belong to a club, but i want a plaque with the following written on it:
1930 Ford Model A
Built by Manny 'K' and John _________ (Underscore represents last name)
Staten Island, N.Y.
and maybe an old style drawing of an engine with headers on it

Here are the Obrien guidelines http://www.obrientruckers.com/resources/10_Artwork_Producing_Guide.pdf

I want it to look like an original 1950s Car Club Plaque
Can someone make it?

 

Hey, Shrink, I stole this off the Sitting and Rotting thread of a car in Canada. Looks like someone had the same idea as you and snatched the roof vent instead of the valuable car!

 

That's an awful lot of info to fit on a small plaque

 

Yea I know I'm probably fitting to much but I love it thanks Moose!

 

Or this: http://www.hotrod.com/events/coverage/custom1950-studebaker-woody-with-esdel-power-at-sema-2013/

Quite a few different rear end treatments shown in this article, although only a couple could be called fastbacks: http://blog.hemmings.com/index.php/...ore-the-new-wore-off/#PhotoSwipe1424658739265

 

That definitely works as a roadster.

 

I don't know the proper way to ask this. I'm sure that it takes quite a bit of effort to Photo Chop a car without the added details I want to see. I have a 1937 Chevy 2 door sedan. My plan is to chop it about 3". I want to change the 'B' pillar to the slanted coupe style. The roof can be slightly raked or not. Windshield, the same. Possibly, using the rear portion of the coupe roof to give a little more slope. I have attached several photos of coupes and sedans. H ad a hard time finding direct side views, and of course, they are not in the same scale. I'm not particular about color (yet) so you can play as you see fit. I think I may want a darker color but not sure of this now. If anyone would like this challenge, I would really appreciate it. This car has only 45,000 miles on it and I don't want to ruin it.
Thanx,
Bruce

 

Can someone lower this with black steel wheels black wall tires?
