My buddy's new old style full custom 53 ford more pics added

Barry has been working on this for years. 8-10 anyway. Pancaked roof, not chopped, different rear window and mid to late sixties look on the front and rear end. I think he really needs quad headlites to go with the rear end treatment. At any rate it is different and a bunch of work. Nutz

 

Let's see the pics.

 

I am having a real problem resizing tonite. Nothing seems small enuff to post. Now this seems really small. Nutz.

 

yo... email the pics to me. txdennis at gmail dot com

 

try again.

 

Looks pretty sweet from best I can tell, pics are a tad small.

 

As good as Customs Illustrated is this car makes me want to bring back Popular Kustoms.

 

thanks for emailing them.




much better

 

damn interweb.

 

ITS CHOPPED!

 

Looks good, I dig..

 

Thats real cool, in town here???

 

Vancouver area car. In my old club out there. The car is not chopped. He took the fatness out of the roof, pancaked it. Also altered the post. Nutz.

 

FULL SIZE FRONT WINDOW ,AS IN NOT CUT, AS IN NO CUTS THROUGH THE POSTS????? Are the posts slanted?

 

DJ, you missed coffee tonite. Nutz.

 

Yep, he slanted the posts and changed the back window. Gives it a unique look. All the fatness from above the drip rail area is gone. Nutz.

 

looks like they snuck a few inches out when you were turned around. hehe

 

Were you there when he did it?

 

ITS CHOPPED.ITS CHOPPED.ITS CHOPPED.ITS CHOPPED!!!!!

 

do you have any shots of it by where the rear curve is, where the beltline used to be?

 

thanks for showing that. it looks really good . . . pretty ambitious mods too.

I'd like to see more pics if you have them.

 

I have emailed my buddy to get the straight goods on the roof mods. I will try and post more pics of it tomorrow nite. Nutz.

YUP, IT'S CHOPPED! It may be decrowned like you say, but it is also chopped. I wouldn't believe it is not chopped until I saw the whole roof inside with no headliner, at least the a,b,c pillars to make sure there are no cuts.
But, actually, I could care less... I like the car a lot. nice mid '60s mild show car look goin' on...

Sorry Pat, got the new house on Wed. nite, been workin my ass off on it, we'll be in touch. Talk to ya soon.

 

Haven't heard from Barry yet, but it sure looks chopped. 50 ford back window. Ton of work. Nutz.

 

number 2 in show trim finished

 

last one. I think the hood was pancaked as well as the shape changed. He is doing a 53 ford pickup that probably doesn't have 2 square inches of the body and frame left that isn't modified. Sliced, diced and julienned. Nutz.
