Gone! [ATTACH]
Since you're open to suggestion, I chose two types of Hurst wheels that recall Studebaker's Bonneville days. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
@fastcar1953 Another variation on the the top bar style. Hood and fender line dropped down a bit. This time with 1959 International Harvester...
@fastcar1953 1948 Olds grille with bumper and over-riders and '52 Old 88 headlights. Customs usually delete the over-riders, but I think the big...
Here's a '51 with a 6-bar grill, using the top bar for all bars. Stockish, yet kustom! Oh, and '54 Buick headlights. [ATTACH]
@Outback Slight drop in back, whitewalls with chrome reverse wheels. Trimmed the hedge, too! [ATTACH]
Here's a Renault Dauphine I did last year using a scaled down '54 Mercury sport coupe roof. [ATTACH]
@chopdtop How's this? [ATTACH]
I had an idea. Take a 1955 Packard Caribbean and use the grille and middle bar with Dagmars. Then drop the car so the middle bar becomes the...
@LarsL Here's the result. I left the Olds "mustache" so you can see where one ends and the other begins. [ATTACH]
Lars, I think the square Mercury and the round Olds grille could work if you drop the idea of canted quads. There just isn't enough room. With a...
@jsxtreme If this were my car, I know what I'd do! [ATTACH]
Here you go! [ATTACH]
@Kellys Hot Rod Parts Here's a simple cherry/maroon and black combo. [ATTACH]
@Phillips Here's a similar '67 Ford Taunus 12M I did in 2022. [ATTACH]
@Leon Sandcastle If it were mine, this would be my model: Joe Cruces' T coupe. [ATTACH]
OK. Here is the '70 Charger lowered with maybe a 2" chop. I think it spoils the balance of the car, but you may like it. [ATTACH]
Bob McNulty's fabulous Kellison Astra won its class at Oakland. It ran an a modified Henry J chassis with a Ford Y-block, T-Bird wires wheels and...
@Bdamfino How about this? [ATTACH]
I'm on it! Back soon.
Sunshine yellow? [ATTACH]
Go Kustom! [ATTACH]
@Gambler 1962 How about a full custom '62 Falcon? [ATTACH]
Art Deco it is! [ATTACH]
@Kellys Hot Rod Parts [ATTACH]
@LarsL Since you didn't specify any other colors, I used one of my 1950s favorites, 1957 Lincoln coral (or something close). [ATTACH]
@silent rick You're 99% of the way to a beautiful custom. Don't fight the feeling! P.S. Closed the Garage door for you.[ATTACH]
@quakerchevelle Here's a shiny version. [ATTACH]
Like this? [ATTACH]
Here is what I have so far. Lowered, shaved, Star Wires on skinny white walls, and cruiser skirt. But I'm not sure how to make the rest work. You...
