This ones not a cruiser. If he would have asked for cruiser skirts, lowered, etc I would not have mentioned it. In 1955 my dad bought a new Sunliner; on the lot was a White one with a Connie and a mountain green one without. I was 11 years old and he saw my disappointment when he bought the green one... I didn’t realize that the white one would not fit in our garage.

 

@silent rick

If someone is going to spend that much time cutting a sedan into a coupe, why not do something unique? Here's a
European version of your Sedan.

 

I like that, but wonder how it would look with a more hot roddish tire/wheel combo...

 

lower in front smaller tires , wheels ?

 

Very nice! I really like the wheels on it.

 

We are going to two door this car. I know it will look just like every other two door 56 around but what the heck. Would someone two door it?

 

Here's a quick and dirty one for you, I'm sure some of the other guys could do better.

That said, I've done several of these 2 door conversions, and I just finished up a '57 that turned out great and I took a lot of reference photos, was hoping to make a sorta build thread soon but if you're cutting into this car and you have questions let me know, I might be able to help.

 

So now that we all got the nose straightened out – You want the glittery piece of plywood to be the focal point of your great little pickup?

 

Super thanks on both counts!

 

Something i was asked for elsewhere. This is my first go at it, creating what a Ford factory version of this might have looked like. I´ll do a more custom version later on, but i wanted a baseline start point. Makes you wonder why Ford didn´t do this, instead of making two different five windows.

 

Madfish is correct about it taking a lot of work but I'm still into the coupe style custom..If you have enough "Want TO" anything can be done. Here's another rendition of the modified sedan...

 

Looks like a 47 dodge coupe maybe that’s why ford didn’t do it they wanted something no one else had at the time. Just my two cents

Which would have put them both on the drawing board at about the same time, I guess.
Also Ford had that 'house style' of roof, as they already did similar on the 41 Lincoln Zephyr, some years before.

 

I like both of these choices, it would hard to choose just one.

 

I love this! Would love to see it "in the steel"!

 

About 10 years ago, this thread is what inspired me to learn how to edit photos. I just realized I've never actually shared any of them.. So here's a couple of my early efforts.

Chopped '37 Willys 2-dr Sedan with '38 Stude headlights:


Chopped '37 Graham 3 Window:

 

Here´s a more custom version of the 48 3w. Added 47 Caddy style door sections and a gentle curve to the swage lines on the front and rear fenders, as they´re straight normally.

 

how about a nice static drop with steelies an white walls.
thats how im trying to build my new to me 62 c10

 

@lowroder

Didn't know if you wanted chrome or black, but since Moose did Chrome...

 

Nice touch leaving the...............rust.

 

"Nice touch leaving the...............rust."

Have at it.

 

I came across this bitchin' Cameo last month. I've seen one other of these '55-59 GM pickups with a '55/'56 Olds front bumper and I immediately thought it needed a slight section to even out the proportions, so I gave it a shot. I took an estimated 1.5" out through the beltline and about 2.5" below the headlights/taillights. It could probably use a chop, but I like it as is.
