    Yeah but there's nothing else radical about it. It's basically a "stock" Model A body with some fins stuck on it...for no reason at all.

    Jack...It wasn't finished that's why I asked...:)

    Lots of Hotrod/Customs had stuff done for the wow factor only...purpose built wasn't a factor here...

  5. A model A coupe hull missing the Qtrs came up for sale a few months ago.
    Should have grabbed it. I’ve got a ****py 59 Chevy deck lid.

    Maybe it was a pickup conversion...

  7. Possible.
    But would have been the perfect kustom candidate

    @gimpyshotrods hows the wild thing coming along...Your Avatar will never go out of style, just make one want to see more...have you have a conceptual Artwork of it...with metal work like that you are truly an Artist...visually are you trying to nail something early to mid 60s...maybe 58, 59...quads were in...;)

    It's a Natural for the Art and Hotrod/Custom...

    It's under a tarp in the shop. I had to put it in the back so I could make some money.

    I am an expert stick figure artist. That's as about as far as my fine art skills go.

    I am just going with the flow when it comes to what visually fits. I plan on laying out the perimeter of the body and building the remainder of the ch***is to fit it in September, if all goes well. Once the p***enger compartment and the nose are framed out, I will see what strikes my fancy.

    I also would like to know how this turned out. I kind of like it.
     
  14. Not my cup of T, or cup of A for that matter. They sure built some different stuff in the 60’s. There mom, I didn’t say anything bad about it.
