  1. It looks slightly different from this angle. I left the roof a touch higher too, to avoid having a mail slot for a windscreen.

    And here´s how you could do it. The boot area is dropped straight down (cut a slice out where the number plate goes). You´d probably have enough material left from the roof to bridge the gap to the back window area.

    I really like this version; v ery understated in grey. It looks like a scaled down version of the Hooper bodied Daimler built for Lady Norah Docker.

  4. I've heard of Lady Docker and her custom Daimlers, but not seen that one before. She certainly had some...ah...unusual ideas (crocodile interior anyone?). I guess that long sweep down the side was all the rage in around 1951 or so.

    Saw this beauty on another thread. Any ideas out there to give it a little more style. Perhaps a Ute style rear or a better looking truck box.

    Anyone feeling creative? I'd like to see my Rover P6b V8 photochopped into a leadsled styled cruiser.
    [​IMG][​IMG]

    I guess main limits would be same wheelbase and not cutting the front screen. Lay it back a bit but stock glass. Side glass is flat so that's easy and they convert to two doors fairly easily too. Rest is up to you. I want to be able to recognise rover elements still but I'll leave it up to you. I've done a few renderings over the years, love to see someone else's take on it.

    Thanks.
     
  11. Graber in Switzerland made a really nice looking coupe P6.

    I'll have a think about this. Definitely a car with loads of ptential.

  12. Chopped ,dropped,skirts,lakers, raised the chrome strip , and paint gives a really different custom cruiser look.
    That body style would also lend itself to a really nice gasser

    I tried to retain some Roveryness, as you asked. The screen is raked back, but not chopped. The rear is sunk into the body. I used Tru Spokes and Type 3 VW rear lights, which are available as repros.

    Sorry about the billet wheels but would it be possible to make them the color of these other wheels? Thanks.

    Thanks Moose, looks sweet! How much chop did you give it? I'm not sure I could actually fit in it, might have to sacrifice a little of the cool factor for the sake of drivability.

    And thank you James, my wife loved that version. The rover that BMC should have built!

    I'd love to see any other versions you've thought of. That gasser one sounds wild.

  21. Not as much as you might think...About 3.5 to 4 inches. I think you might fit

    SO much other stuff I should be doing, but I had to take a whack at the Rover. I'm not nearly as skilled as the other artists on here but I did have some ideas on the car, here's my take.

    Cool gif I miiiight fit. I a good 6ft and have about 2-2.5in headroom with standard bucket seat. Think there's a spacer under brackets so that's half inch and one of my other sets of seats are a bit flatter in the padding.

    Looking at your body mods with standard roof, I think it still works ok so I could easily start there and chop later.

    I like it. Definitely brings out the more aggressive aspects of the styling. It just screams for horsepower I can't afford lol, but if I could, you wouldn't get the evil grin off my face

    Could I please see the zephyr setup up with both these cad grills but no side front fender trim?

  27. OK...Just having a little fun. From cruising around in luxury to a machine that's all business... GASSER style

  28. [​IMG] could someone take the custom on the box transfer to a falcon four door minus scallops and flames?
