Projects 4 door custom picture thread

I am looking into getting a car soon, and I've been thinking about going with a 4 door. I was just wanting to see some pictures to see what you guys and gals have.

 

My 41 Mercury, on its way to a mild kustom

 

My 55 Ford mild work in progress.

 

Jimbo..
You will find a lot of "MoreDoors" available that are the cool years at a substantially less cost, and done properly they are very cool.
I never cared for them when I was younger, but have become very fond of them in my older age.
Your choice, and make it YOUR car....however you want.
Generally I think lowered a lot, simple, and don't try to hide the fact that is has four doors.. work with it and you will do just fine ...
Specific examples of four door hardtops that came from the factory looking very sharp are '56 & 57 Chevys, '57 Fords, a '59 Chevy, Olds, and that long roof style too.
Good luck..

 

Thanks man. My favorite car, two door or 4, is a '51 Chevy. So that's what I'm hoping to find. I'm gonna start shopping this spring.

 

Here is my 51 Chevy 4 door, future full Kustom, back burner project. I chopped it about 6 years ago and sadly it's just been collecting dust since then. I hope to get back on her in the next year or so, after I get a shop built in my backyard.

Nice car, but I don't see a four door or is there something wrong with my eyes?

The 4 dr Merc I did working at Scott Guildners Custom Shop years ago, still have and enjoy it.

 

My old car, the Atomic Kat Box.

 

My '52

 

'47 Plymouth Deluxe

 

Chopped four doors are just cool. The 49/51 Mercs do it really well.
