    Are 52-3-4's still considered shoeboxes?

  9. I'd put '59 Buick lights on, and cut enough of the Buick quarter to change the body line from being pointed, over to being rounded. You'd almost have to make a template of the fender shape of the Ford to use as a cutting template on the Buick -

    The first pic is 5051's shoebox,with the tailights turned vertical. The second one is my sons '51 with '59 Caddy tailights. I can get a closer pic if you want.
