Hey Guys, Just posting some pictures of Lucy's new look. Lowered 3 inches. I got my wheels from Ironpeddler, original Ford 15X5's. Tires are Goodyear 215/75-15 Wide Whites. Also trim rings and baby moons.
Hi Guys Thanks for all the good feedback. I like to hear your comments good or bad. Hey Mr.H, The front end was lowered 3" when I bought Her with new shorter springs. I went the 3" block route in the rear got my blocks from Jamco Suspension Thanks Tobey
Like the new shoes! beauty rings look great. I also like that the door handles are shaved I had to look twice. man what a knockout!
well it still looks good . but i liked it better before , but thats me . in fact i liked the way it was so much and wanted to see what my car would look like in whats sposed to be my new colors . i had you car photo shoped to give everyone an idea what it would look like when they say i cant imagine those colors on your car. and shaving the door handles that look real good . i think im just gona shave my rear handles. i dont trust solenoids.
I really like the silver and purple 2 tone 56 ! It look great just the way it is . Just my opinion . Jim
I like the way you stated that you stole a pic and photoshopped it. Man that made me laugh pretty hard. I do like the way the purple pops with the silver but I'm a silver and black kind of guy, so I do like the other car a little more.
I like the silver/purple combo...on old lady's mad's car...but I prefer the silver/black on yours, Tobey. Especially when the update we talked about happens. That will be absolutely stunning, but 'till then it's our little secret, okay?
ok, i think some took my post wrong i took this picture of tobeys car because i think its absolutely perfect . and because i liked it so much i had it photoshoped to make it purple and silver . because my little girl wants a purple car . my car will never look this slick or good . because my car is not that straight and i dont want to put that much money in it to make it look that good . i was not trying to make it apear that his car would look better in purple and silver. i love the black and silver . but i dont want to copy it . i guess i should have posted the actual picture then the changed pic . to show how how much i liked his car . but once again thats my opinion . maybe should not have posted the changed pic at all . i just think it is the best looking one of these cars ive ever seen and would like to see it in person one day .
Hi guys, So glad to hear from all of you. Again, I love all the feedback good or bad. To old lady's mad, dont think twice about photoshopping my photo to the purple/silver. I'm a very easy goin' guy and am very blessed to have Lucy. I posted the pictures for everyone to see and use as they like. You know what they...imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, so I am honored that you chose Lucy's picture to photoshop. I think the purple and silver looks fantastic! Lucy has been a life long dream that finally came true, so never say never. Someday you and your daughter will have a purple and silver car and I would be honored to have a picture of them together. God Bless, Tobey
I don't think anybody got bent about you using Tobey's car as the basis of your photoshop version, old lady's mad. Tobey certainly didn't, as he so graciously stated above. It's good that we share resources and ideas here, and I think that we are all of one mind that sharing is good. And, frankly, I think you chose an excellent car as an example of how you...and your daughter...would like yours to be one day.
well the reason mine wont be that nice and im not gona spend the money to make it that way. is because this car was not meant to be anything more then a driver till i get one of my other 2 on the road . my wife made me buy it . i like it more all the time as i do things to it . i guess its growing on me .but with limited funds i got to pick which ones i want to spend my money on . but tobeys car is damn nice.
