Are 4doors going to be the new craze

kutthrt i like your car but to me its screamin to be a custom, im no photoshop wiz but i dropped it more & removed the scallops & if i was better at modifying photos i would of added smoothies & flaked the top


cool car tho either way
j.t.

 

Four doors are BAAAD

 

damn that's a nice car i wonder where you got that... ....too bad it's not a 2door though then it would make it that much cooler:wink wink: just glad to see a fellow hamber/buddy is happy to have her now

 

yes i agree four doors are BAAADDD

 

I like these, of course would prefer a 2 door.

 

no they aren't

 

I don't really care, but i think 2-door are more good looking and 4-door are more practical and don't need
to look like a peace of shit, i mean it's still a betiful car and almost the same car as a 2-door...

Im 17 years old and have just getting in to "this" and i can't afford a 12000$ 2d Tudor...
So instead i bought a rustfree 1951 Chevy 4d for 25000 crowns (thats about 3000$)
with rebuilt engine and new brakes. I was also interrested in a 1950 Pontiac 2d but it
costed twice as much and it was rutten and the engine didn't even turn over
So much cooler isn't a 2-door, especially at cruising and you got to get in and out
everytime somebody wants to go out and do something...
Im gonna chop my chev, get it bagged, french the headlights, have suicide
doors in the back... i think it can be a cool car.

 

If you really want to know just try to sell one.

 

the next 'craze'? I hope not but I think they already are. it seems to me like there's been a pretty big swell in people driving classics for dailys and that's brought a lot more of the 4 doors to attention.
for most of the bigger cars, I prefer 4 doors; smaller cars, I think 2 looks a lot cleaner.
My '56 is a daily driver, the 4 doors are wonderful and amazing; I do wish it was a hardtop but that's it. My '64 wildcat is a 4 door post...I think that size car looks dumb with 2 doors. my '62 chevyII is a 2 dr, those things look asstacular with 4 doors.
I have nothing against 2 doors and I think they look bitchin...but I have a soft spot for 4 doors, I think it's my mechanically minded function-over-form inclination.

I love when someone gives me shit 'cause 'oh man, you shoulda got the BelAir instead of the 210' or 'too bad it's not a 2 door'....
"yeah, good input, how's that minivan workin out for ya?"

 

How come I need two screens wide to read this?

 

'cause of the extra door in all the pics...

 

I hope so, I would hate to think all that work was for just a semi cool car

 

you mean 4 doors aren't a craze already? uh oh, i've got two of them-- a '60 chevy wagon and a '62 lincoln convertible

This thread is a year and a half old already...can we please let it die.

 

um, no. it appears to interest some people still. if you're not interested, go find a different thread.

 

thats funny right there...

can't believe this thread is still breathing,
So are they cool yet?

 

The new thing will be 4 door Crew Cab Bobber Rudy Trucks.

It's a slippery slope...

 

2-Door, 4-Door, Wagon, Hardtop, Sedan, Coupe, None of this stuff really matters. There are trends in everything automotive. A 2-Door can look just as cool as a 4-Door or Wagon or Truck, its all about how its done. I have a 53 chev 2-door now and would trade it in a second to get my old 4-door back.

 

The secret with a 4 dr is to hide 2 of them...

 

This four door was done right.

 

No!!

 

I've got a way you can satisfy everyone.....I'll sell you my 3-door Suburban! LOL!

 

The filet /medium rare/cool

 

i have always love 4 doors cause the bigger the better, from my 64 4-door caddy that was 18 feet 7 inches long to my current rod of a 1953 chevy belair 4-door.dont know whay just love 'em.!!!!!

 

IDK about bigger, just shorter doors and more of em, right?

 

In case anyone hasn't seen it yet, there is a cool '60 Bel-Air 4-door post featured in the latest issue of Street Rodder.

To quote - "As supply of original iron continues to dwindle, more cars that were once considered beneath the dignity of hot rodders are now included in the lexicon of the acceptable. Four-door sedans, shunned for decades, are now being eagerly sought as street rod build material...."

If the're not, someone needs to tell the 40 people that gave me the big Thumbs Up today while I was out cruzn, or tell the 6 people that stopped to talk to me when I went to the UPS store. Any Vintage tin Rules!!

 

Hey natas-10 times just about nothing = just about nothing....

 

Every time i see a mordoor hotroded ,the first thing that comes to mind is that they either settled for cuz they couldnt find a tudoor or that their Grandpa left it to them and it holds some sentimental value.Me personally i would never drive one ,but thats just me unless it was a wagon.I have owned a 54 and a 60 Chevy mordoor ,but they were both my parts cars.They can make dependable beaters yes ,but the cool factor is just not the same as a tudoor .I personally prefer tudoor sedans over hardtops on any model car ,but i am weird.I dont think family cars will ever be the craze...

 

Usually, but not allways. Unclee and I discussed that just yesterday.
