Customs 56 Bird......Who built it?

  1. It was built in the New York/ Connecticut area. Owner died and we're trying to get some history on it.

    It looks to me like it has some late model styling ques on it like the dash,steering wheel and side mouldings. I don't think it was built too long ago.

    car has some cool features, definately looks like it could have been an old custom that had some updates throughout its life

    Looks like it was a well built period custom that someone added some tacky ugly "updated" **** onto. Smack those mirrors off with a bat, swap out the dash and steering wheel, and take those retarded fender flares off the sides, this could be a really neat car again.
