Look for a pic of the Clarkaiser shop 53 Ford Vic. Was called "Queen of the Vics" back in the little pages days. The Rikster has pics of this car on his site. Also on the Kustomrama site as well. Beautiful chop that kept the original rear window configuration. I may be biased though as I owned this car back in the 70"s.
I found this one on Kustomrama: http://www.kustomrama.com/index.php?***le=Gordy_Brown's_First_1954_Ford
According to Riksters site: "Originally built by Gordy Brown in the late 1950's. He is now restoring the car back to how it looked back then." Riksters site also has the same pics as Kustomrama. I'd like to see more pics of it, with the rear gl*** in.

I still have the queen in my garage next to a stock vic. If you can make it to Mi. before it goes to NM you can compare them side by side. Rick. 269-979-2277
