  2. I was hoping to see more actual builds, but no one seems to be posting many builds out there.
    I try to show inspiration from the highly talented Rik Hoving Custom Car Chronicle, James D, and Elegant Customs Art instagram pages. Along with any others who have created cool 3 window concepts which may one day be built.

    I love these 1940 Mercury customs converted into 3 window coupes. Same concept, yet they all have their own flavor!!! They are definitely very innovative and stylish, and I'd cruise all of them...
    The white primer 40 Merc was built by John Aiello at Acme Auto for John Lemoine
    The yellow 40 Merc was built by Jason Graham Hot Rods for David Trent
    The brown 40 Merc was built by Custom Paul for Rod Davis
    The black and bare metal 40 Merc was built by Seth Borden and Christian Sosa of Sosa Metalworks for Seth Borden
    The gorgeous blue 40 Merc was built by Rob Ida Concepts for Jack Kiely

    I always think cars that age need sectioning and the hood pancaked.

    The OP is the one posting 90% of the digitally altered images and explained why. His thread his call.
