Really cool car. Someone spent a lot of time and money on it. Ultimate old time sleeper. A good deal for someone.
Neat car. But that console with the ignition box mounted on it along with what looks like a modern cb is absolutely out of place and extremely hokey looking. I had to keep going back to that picture and asking myself why the hell they'd do that. For as well done as the car seems, that's just craptastic imo.
Agreed. I also really like louvers on a hood on a car built like this, but only in straight lines. Looks like a sunburst the way they are. Probably super difficult to get even the way they are, but not what I'd do. Still a killer bada$$ looking rod.
Nice looking and well done IMHO, what struck me is it being a 52 with a 50 nose. A 50 with the 52 chrome fins on the rear fenders and a 52 deck lid would look nearly identical. It might have a 53 steering wheel not sure, maybe one of the experts would know. Bob H.
It's a flip flop hood '50 converted to alligator hood. I like it, except for the previous mentioned hokey console and CB. and I don't like taillights , it looks like that opaque red tape for pasting over busted lenses.
Hmmm? That car is for sale for 1/3 of what of it could cost to build. Soak it up.If you don't like something about it, buy it and change it and you would still be getting a great deal.
It would be a good deal if you were in the market for an early custom. Couldn't build it for the asking $$.
