Features Kustoms blues? I need to see some kustoms....

I really liked this car, a very well done chop on a 4 dr. I especially liked the green paint...a shade very similar to mine and it gave me a good view of what mine will look like when I finish the paint and it's solid green without the ghost flames.

The metallic red on this one was fantastic. I tried and tried, but pictures just really couldn't capture it.

 

Whoa DrDave...!!! Myron told me he sold the car at CCR, BUT he didn't say to whom...NOW I find that you bought it...BIG Congrats.

I asked Myron if I could do a "spotlight" (small feature) on the car for my article covering CCR for Rod Authority and told him I'd keep his name in the article...but now that I know you bought the car, I'm going to put your name in as new owner...again, Congrats on a great purchase...!!!

PS, you are correct-you couldn't build that car for the amount you paid for the finished car, A/C or not...!!!

LOL. Thanks Roger! I'm real excited about the new car and am looking forward to driving the wheels off it.

 

Love the Chrysler grille on that cranberry coupe.

 

What are the bumper guard attachments on the outer ends of the bumpers? Have had my 49 for 30 years and have never seen these before. Similar to 56's.

 

I was puzzled by those myself. I have not ever seen another set of them and wondered what they came off of. The fit the bumper real well though.

 

My 48 with Skirts

 

Mike Sorci, the owner of the chopped '52 Chevy, tole me those were Mark II Lincoln bumpers...and believe it or not, he found those on e-bay...!!! He didn't tell me what he paid for them tho...!!!

They were very nice. I loved everything about that Merc.

 

I googled Mark 2 Lincolns and did not see them But, on a 53 Kaiser there is something very close without the upright guard.

 

My apologies to both of you: Dr. Dave and ned5049...I thot you were talking about the cranberry colored '52 Chevy coop...I see now you must have been asking about the Mercury...and IF that is the case, I have no idea what those bumper overriders are off of...

Not a problem. Thanks.
