Do I see 58 Chevy rear quarter panel on this Ford ? Looks Good

 

Really starting to think we should ban photos of cars with those horrible Hagen headlights.

 

I'd trade a drawer pull ladened grill for some Hagen headlights...............
And I don't even like Hagen headlights!

 

Nice Paint

 

That or if HAMBers would just have the self control to not post them. I can't stand 'em. Really ruins the look of many a '50's car. Attend a swap meet or go to feePay or something. There's good early 50's Merc and Ford rings out there. Even could use a 57 Ford ring and make your own stainless inside ring. Hagans are an aftermarket kit. If you are going to go that route, at least buy the aftermarket good one's from Butch's Cool Stuff in Ohio.

I gave these Hagans from above a little "adjustment"

 

I think the inspiration for the Hagen headlights is the 1965 Dodge D-series truck


Random picture from a Google search. This 1965 may be the outer edge of "HAMB era", not "HAMB friendly".

Love all the little details on his car, like the side stainless trim disappearing into the fins.
Jeff had such a talented eye for Kustoms. Every car he built was just perfect to me. RIP Jeff.
