    Great car, exactly the kind of car that belongs in the mild custom thread ... Looks like your Ford P/U would fit right in too.

    Great group of Mild cars @59FORD That '57 has got some kool changes. Never seen the '56 Ford park lights used on a '57. Looks great! And the hooded headlight right under the natural hooded fender, too kool. Front bumper? Maybe 52-54 Ford? Gaurds? Cut down '54 Chevy? Very tastefully done.

    Thanks,
    Front bumper is a widened 53 Ford bumper.

    Wow, pretty cool! Spot-on nailed it! How did you make it left hand drive AND right hand drive?

    But seriously... for basically a 'factory' custom, (Chevy did the things that the customizers were doing), the style of your build is the only thing that a '58 Impala needs. All around cleaned up, rear to front side trim swap, immaculate understated custom paint. Again ... WOW

  25. Sounds like Lanny Erickson's 56, though it didn't have Packard taillights. It definitely wasn't a mild custom.

    Centurion9 stared this thread with the above quoted criteria! Personally, I respect his wishes when I post. I wish the rest of the posters would do the same!

    Thanks for pointing out the obvious, egads! My apologies to Lurker Mick for doing something of which I am quite critical: Not reading the post in it's entirety and just looking at the pics!
