jeffs396 Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 First I had this in mind... Naah, that would've been too easy Gotta do a Gasser, or to be more accurate "Street Freak". The term "Gasser" is a bit controversial around here... Radiused the rear wheel openings...mockup looked mean, except for that funky forward-sloping roof So, as I always do, I go crazy and start cutting. Off with the roof, let's do a phantom, bare-bones, no trim 2-door sedan! Fits much better with the street fighter look I like the Imperial's round front wheel openings, so must do that also That low-slung rear window has to go also, so it'll be getting a more sedan-like small window as the Imperial limo has... Cut the heater blower and box away from the firewall also, and fabbed up a blockoff plate. I'm in DEEP with this one More to come...
W-409 Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 Yes, it looks very good so far! Gasser / Street Freak / Whatever that kind of style fits to almost any car. Good job with the rear wheel openings. I can't wait to see more.
GirchyGirchy Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 Cool! May I suggest, once this is complete you use the AMT '59 Chrysler Imperial kit to build this car: http://www.hotrod.com/featuredvehicles/hrdp_1107_1959_chrysler_imperial_speedster/
Austin T Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 Be careful about building an imperial like that one in hot rod,that is almost as worse controversy wise as the general lee around here.
