I never thot the '56 Dodge's were ugly...it's like anything else...it takes a creative eye to enhance the looks...in your case, french the headlights, get rid of that thing you've got in the grill opening. Build yourself a grille surround out of exhaust tubing, roll it into the hood lip and mold it in...put in some DeSoto teeth...Do not pancake it...that'll add to the "ugly". Open up that scoop in the hood, put a couple of chromed Merc teeth in there to visually hold it together, and get rid of that damned flat blak...drop it a bit more, remove the door handles, the trunk emblem and see if you can move that "far out" side mirror. Add some full hubcaps, maybe a flame job and you've got a killer Dodge...
Just my thirteen cents worth...
OK, now you can tell me to mind my own business!

Hell no, she ain't laying on the trunk...she's in the back seat, where she belongs...and I'll be back there in a minnit after I answer this damn post.
And Hell no, I ain't gonna pick up a DeSoto grille for you..it's YOUR car, I just gave you several ideas for free...you gotta be prepared to sepnd a little if you want to improve your "ugly" car...and I see you TOOK some of them. YOU were the one that called it ugly...I'm simply trying to help.
Gimmee my change back then, you owe me 11 cents!!!

I'd like to leopard print her back seat http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif The car is cool, but maybe a grill massage wouldn't hurt.....

Look's better than stock. Grill is the only glitch I see. The idea's you have are fine. The hood does look a bit thin already. Backseat? That's fer bashful folk's. Out on the deck lid, for easy access. Keep posting your work.

Very cool ride
Different is always better in my book. My pops would be running an olds motor or a hemi in that thing in a day! HAHA! But that grill needs a 50 Buick smile! thats for sure!!
Good luck.. Keep us posted Bro! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

I think it looks pretty good actually. A little lower, do something for the wheels, spiff up the grille.. and it's done. I even like the paint.
How the hell did you take B&W pictures?

Ok...I'll massage her grille for you just bring her over.
I think if you just use her as a hood emblem it won't matter what you do to the car.
Seriously ..you have alot to work with. Some guys have all the luck. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
