low and cool 4 doors anyone?

[young buck]

just want to see as many 4 door cars as i can before deciding to put more money into the 50 stude

[Harrison]

How 'bout this?

[kritz]

here's a frontal view of mine...
it sits alot lower now, and the skirts and visor have been removed.

[Tinbender]

50 Stude? No that'll never work, better bring it to me. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
I don't care for 4 doors, but a bullet nose would be one more door I could get into. Lets see some pictures.

[blacktopbutcher]

Here is a pic of my 54 ford customline. Its getting a haircut soon.

[Sailor]

Haha, I love that fugly thing, -the Modern Grecian that is. Seriously, if you are building a 4d Stude, you should take a look at it in its earlier, more sober configuration; when it was just The Grecian. Lots of neat details, if not perfect proportions..I dont have any pics handy, but Im sure others have it.

Oh and on my top five over HAMB-cars, there are two fourdoors... http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

[young buck]

here is the stude not low yet but i am having coil springs.com make me some 2 in. lower coils for the front...the should do justice

[Bullet Nose]

Here are a couple of pictures of my 51 Studebaker 4 Door sedan. It's a mild custom and sits low in the front end.

http://www.relicsandrods.com/BNP/4D-01-51-Junge-F.jpg

http://www.relicsandrods.com/BNP/4D-01-51-Junge-R.jpg

I also have a web site devoted to Bullet Nosed cars and you may find some ideas there. The URL is Bullet Nose Paradise (http://www.citlink.net/~junge/)

I have never seen another 4 Door Stude at the many car shows I have attended. Why build something that everyone else has? Be different!

[Scotch]

Here's a kool '50 Buick quad cab from the West Coast. It's got an F-body clip, SBC/auto, and bags. It looks more modern than traditional, but a set of steelies and wide whites to replace the billets would fix that. The champagne color looks good.

[hamilton]

here's my chebbie, may not be cool, but it's lowered and 4 doored.

[KIRK!]

Here's a coupe of the more doors I'v had.

[BARNETT]

Nice job on the scallops, Hami. What happened to the trim rings? I think the trim rings would add a nice subtle touch of chrome to break up all the blue and white...not that you asked. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif Either way...you've made something cool outta that more door.

[Tim]

gota lose the front bumper on those stude's

heres a pic of my comet. It doesnt look like this now. its slammed to the ground and is looking like a 60s style mild custom! With a white suede body and red metalflake top, with wide whites and watson style scallop job!!

Oh =mike=, you're too hard on yourself. I always enjoy seeing pics of your Merc. Has to be one of the baddest mo' do's on the planet!

[=mike=]

damn you ! I did have a visor on a 50 ford I had ALONG time ago . . . i dont think that will help me here though .

[PEDDRO]

mike, I love the green on that Merc. It's always nice to see.

[Tinbender]

Young, your Stude is bitchin. If it was mine, I'd lose the ft bumper, shave most of the chrome, maybe change the headlight doors to something smaller, and drop it hard. 2" ain't enough! 2 or 3 inches out of the top wouldn't hurt, if your up to it!

[Tim]

lose the front bumper, shave all the doors and switch the head lights out for the buick 53/4 tear drops:)

and lower to taste, maybe big inch steelies in like a tan color? or maybe that bright greent hat seems to be so popular


just thoughts

photo shop that bitch;)

[Kojack]

Thanks El Caballo... glad you like my car. Goldchainers disgused as traditionalists... I love it!

Anyway, here's my four-door. I feel good about it, concidering the fact you couldn't get a 2 door Kaiser!

Kojack, you need to put one piece glass rear door.. The rear wingwindow throughs off the flow.. Also are those airshocks or just stock height rear end?

[CHOPMERC]

...

[TP]

=mike= your neighbor saw your car and covered his up.There is a merc here in houston done on the same line as yours. They are bith nice cars. I would not have owned a 4 door in the past but your car changed my opinion on them. TP

I was thinking about that to, Boones. In other photos that rear wing window doesn't look too bad, but it still doesn't.. flow, like you said. Been trying to think of a creative way of removing it that doesn't cost money.

And that was before I lowered it... the front was the only think done. Those goddamn cars had a 9 inch clearence, stock! Like a freakin' truck.

[Mel]

Here's mine.

And how about a 4 door truck? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[Fraz]

2dr Kaisers became available in 52. And the stock height of the early KF is indeed that high out back. As Kojack said, it's like a truck.

[67Imp.Wagon]

Mike go ahead and post another one of those lame ass OLD pictures. I love that Merc.

here is a really old one way back when it was ugly smurf style .

<font color="purple"> Mine is a 4 door. Not available as a 2 door, but the wagon was cuz it was based on the truck. It will be lower whe we get around to replacing the front end. </font>

1946-1950 they offered no 2 doors no but 1951-1955 there was 2 door kaisers...

[saltflataddict]

ditto what Hamilton said. May not be cool, but I like it, and its a four door lowered. Note the WWW have been replaced with 1/12 Broadway classics, and it loooks way better now that I see the old pics of WWW.

[Duck]

Not necessarily that low, but she is a 4-door!

[mytlo56]

I've said it once and I'll say it again:

It's not about how many doors, how cool your paint is, how much HP it makes, or how shiney the chrome is. It's about stance!

Take a sorry ass'd, crusty four door, airbag it, powdercoat the wheels and get some nice caps, wide whites, and your golden.

[El Caballo]

Kojack, you callin' me a goldchainer? That's rich...

[vinnie mack]

Very nice ride..looks good. I would post a pic of my jalopy but it's currently sitting on jack stands getting suspension work done. Ironically every car I have owned has been a four door, reason why i named my '53 Sedan "Double or Nuthin'".

[Rand Man]

Last night, I found a '68 Olds 98, here in town. It's a four door hardtop and one of the bigest boats around. What do you all think of those "newer" models?

[Bigcheese327]

I like them, but not as well as the cleaner cut cars built prior to 1965. I suspect that or outright hatred is the prevalent feeling here, since cars built after 1964 are generally not considered to be HAMB material.

[Rand Man]

Yeah I know it's too new for here, but it's tempting. If I could an older one that runs and drives fine like this (under $1000.00) . . .

[koolkemp]
