Baugher Garage Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 Not a big fan of the yellow Buick, but Kenn, that Desoto (?) is cool!
TooOld Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 Yeah . . . maybe . . . I don't know . . . The bed doesn't really match the lines of the body . . . but it's a good idea and looks like it was done right , not just thrown together !
midengineaddict Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 (edited) this bed fit the cab line Edited January 24, 2014 by midengineaddict
Lovefordgalaxie Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 It has a nailhead, at least something is positive about it. The idea is not very original tough. Looks like some people think it's the perfect way to fix a car that has being rear ended: What NOT to do with a Galaxie by Lovefordgalaxie, on Flickr
pharoah Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 Seems to be well executed,but ... IF it were mine,I would have left off the side trim and painted it a darker color. Not too bad,I've seen a lot worse.
Miatatom Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 Looks like the Buick is a 57 Special. I learned to drive in one of those.
kennb Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 The Buick is 55 Roadmaster,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,the 4 portholes,,,,,,the 57 Buick has a much different grill and bumper. like this
Longbox55 Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 Interesting, but it would have been better if they had used a GM bed rather than a Dodge.
DustyMojave Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 I too noticed the Mopar bed with "BUICK" script. Nicely done anyway. When I was a kid the family had a 53 Buick Special Straight 8. The suspension was SOOO bad, it needed a tug boat to control it. Not that it was worn out, it just handled like a barge without a rudder. Dad improved it a little by replacing the 90 wt. gear oil in the lever shocks with STP Oil Treatment. I know they got better, but it's only 2 years. The DeSoto looks pretty cool. Does it have a Dodge bed? The Ford would look a whole lot better in a different color. The Corvette is nicely done, but why? It makes so much less sense than the others.
