    Just found this photo while browsing. I think it looks really sharp! Anyone else besides this guy try it? Are the bodies close enough to make this fairly simple or?

    The bodies must be close enough, this guy did it. It looks bad***! I read somewhere that Ford ran some '54s with '55 trim while they were developing the '55 models to gauge public acceptance. Evidently it was a hit...;)

    Looks like it would be a cool mod and be different than the standard 54. The hard and expensive part would be sourcing the trim.
