History 3 Window Conversions - Documenting those that exist and concept designs.

The original was essentially a 3 window too

 

You're right, I'll post a pic of it

 

More photoshop. Austin Devon/Dorset, turned coupe...
Not really custom...I'll delete if required.

 

Yeah thats cool. Great concept that someone could build in the custom style.

 

Peugeot 203...

 

Ford Popular/Anglia. Popolino?
I added a couple of inches to the nose to stop it looking too stubby.
Also the other main thing is stretching the rear fenders back to meet the back of the 'bustle', so they visually match the length of the fronts. I think Henry was trying to save metal, as the original rear wings are pretty sawn off looking.

 

These are very cool. Hopefully they will inspire some builds.

 

The Head Skratcher

Model A on ‘32 rails with a ‘34 roof

built by Skratch

 

Someone in Australia was building an Anglia coupe, many years ago, I can't remember if it was a 3 or a 5 window... Cool concept.

 

Could be done relatively easy using a Simca/Fiat 500 roof.

 

There have been a few in the UK over the years, to varying degrees of success.

 

Heres a Austin A40 Somerset 4 door conversion in U.K. Wind all the windows down and it,s a 3 window.

 

Ha, yeah I know it well, that was inspired by one of my photoshop pics. Love that car.

 

Yeah, that ride is awesome. He knocked it out of the park for sure...

 

Found one more of these 3 window Mercs.

I really like the 1939 - 1940 Mercury customs converted into 3 window coupes. Same concept between them, yet they all have their own flavor!!! They are definitely very innovative and stylish, and I'd cruise all of them...
The white primer 40 Merc was built by John Aiello at Acme Auto for John Lemoine
The yellow 40 Merc was built by Jason Graham Hot Rods for David Trent
The brown 40 Merc was built by Custom Paul for Rod Davis
The black and bare metal 40 Merc was built by Seth Borden and Christian Sosa of Sosa Metalworks for Seth Borden
The gorgeous blue 40 Merc was built by Rob Ida Concepts for Jack Kiely
The green 39 Merc was built by Menges Twins for JR Rodriguez

 

that's what I appreciate about it.
someone went to extra lengths to make it appear original.

 

Any more info or pictures of this one? Very interested.
