From the same 1958 home movie as above

 

Two different cars. '55 Chevy?? and a '58 Ford

 

Yes. The Chevy was impossible to get a full shot.
So I posted the pic of the rear as well. Both look to have shaved handles.
Looks like the Chevy has some frenched tail light work.
The Ford had about a 2-3 second chance to screen shot.
The film is kinda dark

 

The beltline is brilliant and gorgeous. This car floors me, I need more pics of it!!!

 

The dip is a kool touch. Thanks for sharing the pic.

 

I give up.

What was it?

 

I have no idea, just thought it had some kool stuff going on,

 

Now there is a *Kustom* major alterations but looks bone stock,,,

 

"This incredible 50's custom is the result of years of work by John Bona**** of Michigan. This is a completely hand-crafted automobile that was constructed over the period of 1957-1963. The suspension is 50's Studebaker, the engine is an Oldsmobile Rocket V8 from 1955 as is the transmission. The other parts identified are 1958 Chevy taillight lenses, the windshield and cowl are 1959 Dodge and the seats are 1962 T-Bird. Everything else on this incredible automobile is hand fabricated. The car was shown extensively in the early sixties, and was featured in Hot Rod magazine's Custom Car Annual of 1964. This is an important early custom unlike any other car. *****LED AS A 1953 CHRYSLER**"
