1952-59 Ford Quick hello from Sweden

Hello, I thoght I might show some pics of my recent semi custom (or what ever).
Trans out for overhaul this winter, and some minor fixes on the body as well (rust and worn out door hinges etc.)
And as always, "good looking from far, but..."

 

Looking nice and traditional,good job.

 

I like it. Had a 56 back in the 60's. Used a 55 hood and tail lights with flat lenses. What are the lenses on yours?

 

Nice looking car. I'm also curious as to what tail lights you are using.

 

Great looking car. I could be wrong but those look like 59 Buick lenses in the Ford bezel. He would have had to drill the lens to make that work.

 

Well, thank you for the kind words. It was honestly purchased this way (mostly) and I am only finishing off some rough work that has been done.
And Dos Cincos are 100% right about the buick lenses.

 

Good looking.
4 dr shaved?

Thans guys.
Will ask a quick q here as well, before I start spamming the forum with it.
Car has a warmed up 390+c6 in it, and since I'm more go than show I would like to at least get some shortys in there instead of the logs. Anyone who has done this and know what fits with the least amount of problem?
Might need to raise the engine a little I think, there is plenty of tight going on around the engine and frame.

Any tips?
