    1937 LINCOLN ZEPHYR In the 1940 movie serial, 'The Green Hornet', the title character drove Black Beauty - a mildly-customized 1937 Lincoln Zephyr three-window coupe with bubble front skirts featuring painted scallops.


    Hello,

    Even as old as we are, memories of earlier versions of the Green Hornet was on on our horizon. We were geared from the Kato version of the Green Hornet. But, in research, this one was based on a 1937 Lincoln Zephyr coupe.


    With the descriptions from the archives, how in the world did they turn the front wheels to do the action scenes or just normal turns on corners. Some custom modifications were done or editing magic from those wizards in the cutting room.

    At any rate, the Lincoln Zephyr was similar looking to those popular 37 models Chevy and Fords that we see in any website or magazine. Perhaps, the trunk is a little longer or at least my change over to the fast action front opening doors would have allowed the Green Hornet to exit quickly to stop crime in its locked in place position. Ha!

    To keep the idea that most old hot rods and customs look better with a mild rake, the lower front end under the front skirts gives it a better attitude for crime fighting. This one has front opening doors for fast exits and entries.

    Even with the bubble popped out front skirts, it still seems not plausible, to make any sharp turns or complete steering wheel turns without some hinderances. YRMV

    That is a really cool vintage sculpture...

    Your Triptych (3 Artistic items kinda sorta) in photography is as you said, well executed...thanks for sharing it...if it was mine the stick would come off and it would be placed on a shelf for Stogy the big kid to admire...:D
