History 50's Built Mopar Customs

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by gwhite, Aug 4, 2008.

  1. With postwar Mopars gaining in popularity, (and a few rockin' threads here featuring mopar builds) it would be nice to see examples of 50's built postwar Mopars.

    Here are a few I've seen here and there;

  4. Excellent photos! I find it interesting that of the 4 customs we've collected here, none were 2drs.

    Anyone else have anything????

    Any chance to show off my car. She's in pieces right now, but will be getting a 460 Ford and losing some inches out of the top.

    I just found this thread.
    According to what I see, I may have stumbled across a real gem with my '52 Dodge 4 dr I just bought.
    Damn, I had no idea that they could look THIS good. I defy anyone to say that 4 doors don't make good customs.
    Here's mine. I'm pumped.

    I've had this '50 since 1987 when I was 14 years old. It was a stocker then. My dad taught me TONS!!! Chopped, dropped and (gasp, don't tell the Mopar guys) small block Chevy powered!

    It's currently awaiting a fuel pump and new tires....

    Two of the pix are from a few years ago when I dug it out of storage to bring it to my home garage. The one with all the guys is from highschool in 1990.

    Man I dig these cars!!!

    My '52 Coronet. Currently all stock except for lowering and a Holley/Weber 2 bbl. Will be chopped like the photoshop pic and a 5 speed once the snow flies.

    Very nice. One thing I like about the 2 drs is the slanted B pillars.
