    Night Prowlers used to have stuff like that. I don't think they're in business anymore, are they?

  8. We ain’t building a hot rod
    A cruiser
    Somewhere between a mild custom and lowrider

    I think I asked already if wagon and sedan skirts are the same

    Chased a lot of skirts, never had one offered!
     
  11. Been chasing skirts for a year on this car.:)
    The other trades fall thru.
    New? They’re out there but it more fun with old ones.

    As for the skirts, wagon vs sedan? I never heard any of my low rider friends say they are different. As well, car 1/4 panels are often used on wagons that needs 1/4’s.

  13. I just looked up new ones online. List sedan and wagon together.
    We worked out a trade on the skirts plus some boot on the emblems

  15. I like the skirts, looks like they should be on the boss Lady's wagon. HRP
     
  16. Wife is a no at this moment.
    I’m going to have a set for me when I cruise it

    It’s no DB5. But will M make that push button actuated?

  18. Manual.


    But speaking of push buttons, I was trying to talk her into Lincoln push buttons :)
     
  19. I hear you brother, when I was building Brenda's Ranch Wagon I bought a nice '54 Chevy grille w/t extra teeth and it had already been rechromed, I tried my best to talk her into the modification and she wouldn't hear it. :rolleyes: HRP
     
  20. Talked the wife out of using the original hood ornament, then she said the rest of the hood and tailgate trim needs to go.
    Slowly working on losing the rear door vertical trim. That’s a maybe.

    Had my character’s wrong earlier. I meant Q. It should make more sense as to making a his and her ride. It’s purely a fictional concept of course. :) IMG_3800.jpeg

  22. Body wise the Ranch Wagon is close to stock, the only thing I convinced her to remove was the hood ornament also, it was pitted and just plain ugly. HRP

    I hope you don't lose the vertical trim piece. It's what ties the straight beltline of the station wagon to the 'sweetheart dip' of the sedans. Without it, it looks as much like a Ford wagon with Chevy trim as a Chevy.
     
  24. I get it.
    But looking like something else is part of custom stuff
    Even very mild ones

    I think it looks great without the vertical trim. A lot sleeker
