    Maybe tow bar brackets instead of the nerf bars.

    Kelly Hot Rod Parts, I have a suggestion for you. Instead of the Hauling Hunchback, how about Marty Feldman's character Igor from Young Frankenstein, with the words What Hump?

    this is a screen shot of a pair of headers hanging on kiwi kev's shop wall. i like how they angle slightly rearward but not how they eventually dump straight down.
    can we remove the bolt on collector and add a two into one that continues to angle back instead of dumping straight down? make the final piece a 3 or 3.5 inch collector to bolt on an exhaust pipe?

    Sure, if you have some extra bends laying around. If you can imagine it, it can be built.

    I'm curious as to whether the paint or coating on the headers is heat proof or at least resistant. The only white I've ever seen is flat.
    What say @Kiwi Kev ?

    I need someone to go to town on a 59 mercury 2 door. Would like to see several options. Like scallops, flaked roof, different wheels(steel or Supremes) The car is currently Black but i dont have pics of the actual car.
    Theres not a lot of kustoms made of this model, maybe for a reason but i think this could be cool! Heres one image found online to work on,

    Looks good. Maybe it needs fender skirts.

    To me, it just needs to unload the trunk.

    Here are two front end mods: bar grille echoing to top bar and a 59 Buick grille.

    And a treatment for the tail: frenched the upper lights. I replaced the bottoms with '59 Bonneville lights on a mesh background with a chrome bar to tie them them together.
