Gothic Kustomz Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 (edited) Yea a Marilyn Manson song has inspired me to do this, I got tire'd of working on Fordzilla, so I'm taking a break and starting another one, I couldn't find a '65 Lincoln hardtop, well one that was cheep enough for me, soooooooooooo, I took the front clip off a '65 an mated it to a '64, VOLA! got what i was after, now this will be my version of the Lincoln, I will use all the Kustom stuff, slam it to the weeds, and other special goodies, it will be a Pearl Black with Black Cherry Red interior, I't will sport white walls I think, and some kewl wheels, here are some pics of the mating: Edited August 14, 2012 by Gothic Kustomz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kruleworld Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Looks good so far. interesting idea to change the front clip, that's using your noodle. Yea a Marilyn Manson song has inspired me to do this, I prefer the 'Soft Cell' version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothic Kustomz Posted August 20, 2012 Author Share Posted August 20, 2012 OK, first off no I aint been sleeping, did some minor hood modification yep, some wont like it but you other's will, and you know who you are, I went with the Revell part's pac, 427, yep, with a med rise intake, going with a pair of 1250 dominators, so I had a lil fit issue with the hood, so I added a revers cowl hood scoop, no not to much, then went out, and made the front axle into pins, still a lil work to go on the hood, the interior, is not done yet, it will have black accents, well here are some shot's for ya:, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonFL Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Personally I'm all for everything slammed so I would drop that rear down and I do agree with mike, could use a little bigger sized rims (those smoothies would look cool) but the rims you have on there now look a lot better then the first ones. I also think that cowl hood looks pretty good. keep it up, can't wait to see it with some shine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOTH KUSTOMS Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 OK, here we go just about off to paint, the hood came out awsome, but of course, I did it, just one last check for any dings, and what not's then some wet, and scrub, and we're off to the race's. OH! by the way, she will be HOK Black Pearl, about 3-5 coats, then, maybe even some transparent red, just to give it a nice tint... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothic Kustomz Posted August 27, 2012 Author Share Posted August 27, 2012 I dunno man, it just aint working, if I knew what the problem was I wouldnt be asking..... Really can't see the pearl, ohhhhhh, but it's there, and allot of it, anyway this is just the first, the inside will be painted Black, I will take some outside shot's in the morning before it rains, still have to fine wet sand this, no the hood paint didn't crack there on the corner, it was where the gator clip was, yeah duh, even used flash, I thought for sure the pearl would show up, man does it ever in the sun....
