Bo huff Dixie deluxe

Does anyone have any info on the 4 door mercury bo huff built ( Dixie deluxe)
What size chop ? What kind of grill was used ? Etc.

 

I'm sad to say ( i read the build of it-in olskoolrodz)

 

I can't answer the chop question but the grill/teeth are modified F1 truck pieces. I think it's a good looking car.

 

Thank you

 

It is a neat car. If you wish to hang out here Mike, do the introduction thing.

 

4 inch chop, 70 gallons of bondo

 

Because it was built for Geno, the editor.

 

What's up with the 5" frenched headlights?
Grill just does not fit in there. Looks cartoonish, but that's probably what the owner wanted...

 

I think it is a good looking ride.

 

what exactly does that mean?

 

This is an example of a beautifully done 4 door. The deep drenched headlights are a Bo Huff signature and you either love them or hate them. Look at the details in this car: the rear window trim, the interior and the clean lines of the chop especially on a 4 door. I seriously doubt that there is a lot of bondo in it as Bo Huff is one of the masters in metal working. You can find more info by searching the web and good luck on your search.

 

Alot of people dislike Bo Huff and think he is a hack from what I have seen. I am not sure of his work but I met him at Goodguys one year in Columbus Ohio and he seemed like a good guy.

 

I like the lack of 20" rims, street rodders touch and the fact he doesn't come on and bad mouth other peoples choice of build's.

 

Why? he's done more than most folk ~ he does some awsome work.

 

Always liked Dixie Deluxe. Not very often you see a 4 door done this nicely.

 

I'll bet 85% of the people on here read olskool rodz and kar kulture deluxe. I do and like the magazines. Hell I found a magazine called "Overkill" here in colorado and enjoyed it too.

 

I don't dislike him or his work so I can't tell you why.
Jealousy? Stupidity? Personal experiences?
Not sure.....

 

But it is cool to not like the magazine. I have most every issue. Ratrodder (GASP) magazine is also a good one. It has great photography and a great set up, even if you aren't into the cars.

 

Some construction photos would tell us if it's a bondo barge or not.

FWIW, that's one of the better looking chops I've seen done to a 4 dr Merc. The rear door windows have good lines/a coupe look to them. Many times 4 dr Merc chops go bad in that area. Don't personally care for the grille or headlight treatment.

 

Pull it up on YouTube. .. he gives a full breakdown on the build at some show

It's a beautiful car and the headlight treatment is killer. Bo Huff puts out some kool work and while I can't attest to his build quality I can almost guarantee that his work is better than the jealous hacks that bash him. He's been doing this way before most guys now days were cuddlin' a cabbage patch.
