    There is a thread on here about '55-57 Fords, "the other Tri-fives" that has lots of good stuff, most recently a blue and white '56 from back in the day that had a 390, toploader etc. Beautiful car.
    Also, for one idea, here's a Photoshop of a Crown Vic I did awhile back. I've wanted to build one of these for ages.
