Can someone please help me with ideas for this car? I was thinking a chop, about 4 inches front, and maybe 6 in back, fenderskirts and maybe bellflower exhaust tips. But i mainly want some ideas what to do about it. Anyone? Sorry for the dark pics.. Looked ellright to me yesterday, must have been drunk..
What? What Nash? Did you take that picture at noon on December 21st? How about a daytime shot with the sun behind the photographer's back and on level ground and a light colored background?
man you don't want to do that to that car, do yourself a favor and let me take it away for ya so you can find something else worth doing. It doesn't look like that big a car so dropping it might not be much of an option but it could use a couple or 3 or 4 inches taken out. Always liked those 37's
starting to look alot better with the front wheel, now get around and change the ones on the back aswell
Would do more but the photo quality is really poor. Take some good, well lit side shots and I'll try again.
Squablow, thats pretty slick, cool idea, shortening the roof and chopping it making it an humbback 5w coupe, cool!!!!
Im looking forward to see what you can do with these pics.. I really like the coupestyle roof too. Great! If you can, i´d like some suggestions on colour too. In my head it should be black, with a traditional flamejob, but.... Thanks! / Jimmie
Hehe.. Hey, i suppose if you come and get it, i think il´l give it to you ! Thanks anyway! Me myself dont really like the model, i just bought it because i couldnt find a decent -54 chevy.. If you have one il´l trade!
I'm not sure if you're familiar with bomb sites but they might have some cars to inspire you. Here's one just for example: http://www.chevybombs.com/
Ohuffh! Thats the way to go, Builtbyme! True killer stance. Wish i could do a sectioning too, but i think i know myself a little too good to start that project. Please keep em coming! Ps; Killer link! Im getting all weak in the knees when i see that! Jimmie.
Lowlow, That grille is from a 37 Nash Ambasador, not a Lafayette. The Lafayette grills have horizontal bars. Cool car though...I should know!! I pulled the original engine on mine to put in a 57 or 58 looking SBC. Those cars already looked chopped (though some may think not enough!!!) Paul
Oh.. And i thought the horisontal bar grille was a -38. They look a lot better than mine i think. Found a -41 Packard grille the other day, good chrome and an odd look so im going for horisontal bars anyway.. I will be back for more details.. Thanks for the input! There is not that much info to be found about these cars, so im very greatful.
I am thinking something different, chop the top, fill in the quarter windows and put on a faux carson style top. Skirts, red wheels of course. Remove and fill in trunk area. Johnny Angel
