1955 Ford Customline / Finally out of the box!

that one is Smileys from Saints and Sinners Tattoo. It used to be mine..

Nitro-

That thing is bad ***...Way to go. the color, stance, fit and finish...everything is bad ***....

That car is nice enough to make a Nun question her vows....

 

Thanks Nitro, I have pics of it now somewhere. it's about 70% done now. It's original 56 beige and GM gold wheel color. Carl wanted it two toned. originally the car was all beige. Carl is 76 yrs old and all ford! He picked out the brown-gold color off a paint chart. I shot it , then told him it was a GM wheel color! He's still cussing me. LOL. But he loves it. He said he just got tired of seeing red and white , green and white blue and white ect all the time. I'll try and find some current shots of it. This car was a total rust bucket. I burnt a lot of wire on this thing. I understand how much work it is to do one of these things, lots of parts to one of these old fords. More than most people think. I applaud you on your car, excellent job! Lippy

 

Nice

 

No excess....very nice....clean.

 

Keep the ShamWow ready 'cause they're gonna drool all over that one! Absolutely beautiful...

 

What an outstanding combo of colors. Nailed it dead on! Very cool.

 

Wow, that thing is super straight! It's a really, really sharp looking car!

 

Nitro, that car is breath taking!

 

Straight as a string. Gorgeous.

 

That looks awesome, love the colors.

 

Its come a long way.

 

nice color and stance i love it ,how much did you drop it ?

 

Sheeeeyiiiiit! looking good!

 

verry nice color combo , love it

 

Beautiful now that is a great paint and body job. The black looks a mile deep.

 

Looks awesome! I was thinking about doing a color on my 56 customline's roof. car is all red. Any suggestions?

 

Great looking car; perfect stance. Very nice job.

 

Absolutely Beautiful !!!!

 

Looks friggin' awsome, pretty much rthe same vision I have for my 55 customline. I was going with off white with a light green( think 67 mustang green) roof and wheels. Maybe even 1 scallop in green behind the front wheel opening. Well, your pics inspired me, time to change into the work clothes and head to the garage.

 

That is a beautiful car man.

 

Ya gotta tell where you got the rear tail lights. I have a 55 Customline and mine are mostly rusted away plus they don't extend out at the top like that.

 

Congrats on getting it ready to cruise. How about some interior shots?

Love the two tone paint.

 

Thanks! It's down on all 4 corners 4"...

 

Thanks man. When you get yours in paint, You got to post some pictures. the color combo sounds great.

 

I just looked at the pictures of your car, I would'nt change anything. Looks good!

 

Thats great! Thanks for the compliments. Now you guys got me wondering... Post a picture of that other car!

 

I used "56" back up lights... I think Dennis Carpenter sells them. I got mine from a guy who had them in his garage.

 

Thanks! Heres a few of the interior...

 

Thanks Clay, You know... I didnt think it would have come out this good... I still need to rub out the roof...Soon

 

50, Thanks man! I plan on taking it to the Santa Maria show... It made it last year... So ive got NO excuse's.
