Yeah,GREAT one !!! Here are two more shots.

I wonder what the plans are regarding the attachment of the license plates.The TRJ feature says they want to go without bumpers and I totally agree.Cole,any thoughts you'd like to share...?

Here are a few more.

'36 Ford built by Posies a while ago. This car has had a huge impackt on me. '38 LaSall grille, '37 DeSotto bumpers, molded and sunken headlights padded top, fender skirt.. and ultra low stance.

another 36 convertible.. again with LaSalle grille, this time a '40

Look at these bumpers... we need to see more of those on '36 Ford's

Wonderful

Rikster · 04-07-2005, 05:38 AM

Packard grille on '36 Ford convertible.

one more picture of John Fisher's 36 Ford... you cant see enough pictures of this georgious custom

Rick Dore's 36 Ford

'35 pheaton.

Rikster · 04-07-2005, 05:43 AM

Another 35 Pheaton... this time no skirts but very nice '50 Mercury hubcaps, and those georious bumpers again

Tonny Miller's Donn Lowe chopped '36 Ford coupe

And now we are at Donn Lowe... her is another of his creations. Shown before in this thread.. but more pictures of this one never hurt either.

Rikster · 04-07-2005, 06:04 AM

This '48 Chevy coupe was built by a guy named "the Cat" from Ohio.
He built is after he missed out on an action on the original Barris build Chevy custom for the movy High school confidential.
The first time I saw this car was in a black and white photo on a show report in a R&C magazine.
I fell in love with the lines of this car. the perfect proportions of the chopped top with its rear side windows closed. I never dreamed I would ever see this car in person (I'am from Amterdam the Netherlands). But in the 90's I visited a friend of mine in Tennessee and while we where driving around I noticed this good looking 46-48 custom parked next to a building, ou tof the corner of my eye. We turned the car to check the custom out and found it to be this '48 Chevy I had seen in R&C magazine. I freaked out. WOW. and it got even better. It turned out there was the First annual KOA Tenn custom show that same weekend.. so we got to see quite a bit of cool custom cars... but this for sure was my favorite of the weekend.

'46 Chevy grille much smoother than the original 48 Unit

The car was going to be repainted because of the color mismatch on the doors.

Also, while I am asking questions into the void. . .

I remember a car posted on here, I think on a Paso thread, that had a sculpted dashboard without a single gauge in it. . . did I dream that? Anyone know that car or have photos?

i stole that pic from another site. that was the only one and it had no info. i must admit too. it does look pretty cool with them. i might have different opinion about it with a different camera angle.

Janne · 04-07-2005, 04:30 PM
