Anyone have any pics of them. I have tried Carnut and google and come up kinda short. I found one burried under some vines and stray and other rubbish. Still had the the trim and name on it. Was wondering if anyone built a more door kustom out of them? If I can find my cable I post some of the pics I took.
My first car was a 54 savoy (4-dr). Paid a whole $50 for it, and it was pretty reliable for a 15 year old kid, except for July when it would vapor lock. I've always considered it a pretty ugly car. Very rounded edge car that was able to roll over imports with ease. The only two I've seen customized, was some guy in Okmulgee, Oklahoma and of course the "sniper." Do a google on sniper plymouth, and you can see what a new roof and unlimited budget can do.
No matter what you do to it, it'll be worth what you pay for it. But you can have fun with one - If you search the cl***ifieds or hit the link in my sig, you should find pictures of a '54 ragtop, all original, but it gives you the idea.
Let's see if figured out how to upload pictures... Hot DAMN!!! I ern't so ignant after all... Here's a link to what one looks like after years of UP Michigan weather. http://www.pasty.com/cam/2001/b0611.jpg
Hopefully I can figure out how to upload mine for you.I have had mine down here in the good ol Lone star state for about 3 years. Pretty much original except that I lowered the car about 2 1/2 all around. The car is pretty much bullet proof and very reliable. Starts up everytime and like you , would love to tear into her to make her a cool rod. Not sure how much they are worth these days. From what I hear not much of a popular car, but I love mine.
or for a very small amount of cash you could have my '55 belvedere. v8, auto, rebuilt motor, all new brakes. doors shaved factory 'greenhouse tinted gl*** . very little rust left to deal with, a little in the rockers and a half dollar size on each dogleg. it's funny i've been offered way more for the car through parting it out but i refuse to part the car because it's got to much potential even if it is a 4 door. hell at the price it's listed at i'm losing almost as much as i'm selling it for. i just need space. oh and to top it all your only a coupla hours from me...ken....
all though it is not out style I think the Sniper was one. I was designed by Foose but I can't remember who built it.
been in the cl***ifieds for a while. there's a guy coming from atl tommorrow but it's not sold til theres money in my hand...ken.... http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=111748
Hey Stone, Check this link out, its a moredoor from New Zealand and there are quite a few photo's of it. http://www.nz-hotrod.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=500&ppuser=17 I've got an aussie 4 door desoto diplomat that uses the same shell but came out with different chrome and grille. Cheers Dave
I know a old man who has a 2-door for sell. Might be able to pick up cheap , his brother checked out and left it in his front yard. Pretty solid too.
