    all you people are stupid, that thing is "hot", it took the monster garage only seven days to build that one.

    It's ugly!! Still salvagable though. I'd be more interested in the chopped 53-55 pickup parked next to it.

    damn, in fifty years, somebody is going to have a thriving business reuniting shoebox ford front and rear clips to the rest of their original bodies, as well as restoring 90's t-birds and lincolns!

    i guess somebody thought this was the logical alternative to the "bird in a box" fad.

    .....I forgot to show you one of the kustom treatments that realy sets the car off.
    Check out the '50 cut outs in the scoops. Can it get any worse? Mick

    What do you think happened to those poor people in the Lincoln when it got rear-ended by the "50 Ford? Bloody mess I suspect. Looks like it's parked in the right place though, a junkyard!

  8. Aside from that gangsta mod, THAT PLACE IS AMAZING!!! I bought a 36 ford roadster emblem that Myers and I had to practically fight over. It's pretty bitchin! I got it for TEN BUCKS!!! [​IMG] I have to go to Springfield this weekend for a wedding so I'll be stopping by on the way back home.

    It turns something but I think it's my stomach. Good thing for this guy we live in a free country or the bad taste Nazis would have shot him by now.

    Rev Great find!! Sorry Jake, I photo shop'd out the slober. I'm going back next weekend after the Carthage show. I'm still thinking about making a firewall, or a grill insert out of the ironing board.

    Happy Trails,

    Mick

  11. That's a good pic of the ironing board too! Now you can start drawing up a concept of what the hell to do with it! [​IMG]

    I'm so glad you got a pic of me and my "new" emblem, I think I'll print it and mail it to Myers as a Christmas card. [​IMG]

    Here is a picture from the Stray Kat 500. This would change the topic "What you could do to a 49 Ford."

    Happy Trails,

    I know it's an old thread, but I've never seen that '49 "Ranchero" and kind of like it. It could use some help (grille wheelcovers, side trim, etc.), but I wouldn't mind owning it. I had a friend in high school in the '50's that had one and it was extremely well done and practical.

    If my car was a Fordoor instead of a club coupe, I'd consider doing this.

    Thanks for posting those pictures.. it gives me a chance to use a Rod Serling Quote I have been hanging onto...

    Each is a collectors' item in its own way - not because of any special artistic quality, but because each captures , and suspends in time and space, a frozen moment of a nightmare.
