E St. Kruiser50 Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 (edited) Haven't posted anything here as a finished build for a while, so thought I'd share this pearl white "curbside", with a burgandy scratch-built 'Vert top. '32 chrysler bumpers, '58 Edsal continental kit, recessed Chrysler wires, chopped windshield, wedge-cut hood side panels, and a little BMF to add a little "Sparkle" . I don't like '39 chevy coupes, so I decided to make one I liked. To me this is just a nice clean simple build that I love to look at. I love continental kits and this was a natural to me. I love the profile with the chopped roof - Nice and sleek . Edited July 18, 2009 by Treehugger Dave
CB Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 Very classy lookin' and yet very cool-- maybe too cool for a Chebby? ... Nice, Dave, I likes lookin' at it too
RodneyBad Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 Very Cool looking. Top looks great. Love the wheels. but something is missing. I just can't put my finger on it. Mmmm No Vette Parts?? Looks Awesome
george 53 Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 Looks GREAT as per your norm,Dave, but, ta be honest with you, I'da gone without the roof, it's just that cool!!!
Foxer Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 I love the way the roof flows with the rear deck. Are you SURE you didn't lop the top off those front tires to fit in the fenders????? I like looking at this too ... fantastic little details.
