Some shots without the tape!! Thanks for looking... Oh, and stretched the doors.. Edited January 19, 2022 by Painted Black 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koellefornia Kid Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Kool! And a nice start! The Foose wheels seem to be a good choice for it. Your project reminds me of Billy F. Gibbons´ Kopperhed which I built some years ago Since I first saw it I'm a great fan of the 3-window -Shoebox conversion and I wonder why Ford never produced it...

Painted Black Posted January 19, 2022 Author Share Posted January 19, 2022 Thank you Ray. Oliver, your 3W looks great, I was going to build mine as a more traditional style but then changed my mind after I stuck those Foose wheels under it, I'm going to try my hand at doing a custom modern interior.

Ace-Garageguy Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 3-window is a good look for these. Did you shorten the roof at all (move the C-pillars forward) ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The black line is the original door line. Edited January 19, 2022 by Painted Black 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bisc63 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Looking good, but I would be SO tempted to put a T-bird porthole in that c-pillar! This is a nicely executed custom so far. Following. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
