Hey guys, great to be a part of this forum, I have a '52 and a '53, a friend of mine is working on a '54 and I used to have a picture saved of a bright red 52-54 Ford with the rear wheel openings raised a bit, maybe like 2 inches, but I can't seem to find that picture anywhere. I remember the car was parked in a driveway in the picture, picture was a 3/4 rear view, and I want to say it had flipper hubcaps and a white upholstered package tray. I can remember it pretty clearly. Does anyone have that picture they could share? I really want to show it to a guy working on his car, and if I had enough paint left, I'd do it to my car as well! Thanks in advance.
Kind of what I'm shooting for but Eastwood Cruise Night Blue and moons. It looks to me like the skirts are higher than what came with my 53. http://www.rkmotorscharlotte.com/sales/inventory/sold/1953-Ford-Crestline-Sunliner/134180#!/

There was a guy on here a while back with a killer green '54 that had opened up the rear arches, but unfortunately I can't remember his HAMB name, and I haven't seen him in this sub-forum for a while. I think maybe he sold the car. Here's some pics from his World of Rods magazine coverage...
It was real similar to the green one (also an excellent example) but maybe not raised quite as high. We can photoshop his car, just hoping to find that picture since that builder really nailed the proportions. I feel like the wagon above over-did it (and those wheels don't help either) but thanks for all the responses.
