another '53



I really dig this car.

 

I have a Sun Valley on the back burner.

This is a concept of the project.

The front is a 55 Pontiac bumper, the rear bumper is a Olds grill, the headlights need work, this drawing has modern lights, but I have not decided yet. Also the roof will not be that low.

 

heres my sunvalley bleh

some 52-54's from carnut

 

question bout the yeller one, how did yah eliminate the sunvalley side trim that goes from post to roof, did you use the sunliner trim?

 

Merc-o-madness,

I borrowed that picture from www.carnut.com

maybe they could give you some advice on the trim.....

 

Here's one of my favorite pics of one. KK

 

Here's my '54...

 

any of these work for you, Nat3060?

I'm always looking out for pics of these, too. Inspiration, I guess.

 

THAT BLACK LAID OUT 54 IS SICK.

 

yup they workin for me.. i wanna see more of kutty's

 

Nat3060,
They had an article on Kutty Notebooms merc in "Ol skool rodz"(that name cracks me up!) magazine a couple of months ago. I don't have a scanner, or I'd post some more pics of it.

Well figured id throw my first thread out there. I have a 54 Monarch Monterey.... basically looks the same as the Merc with some different trim. Mine is a 4 dr, i was looking for an older 2 door, but found this and think it has promise. Anways heres some pics.







Shes in rough shape right now, the body is in decent shape and surprisingly doesnt have a whole lot of bad rust. Right now just trying to see if we can loosen the engine up, and ill take it from there.
