    Why not? We all know Jerry Quesnel's chopped Merc, but he also owned this great looking '52 Ford.

    I'm not thinking they're the same car, (mine is a 2 door sedan and not a coupe), just that they look similar with the '55 grille bar in place.

    I agree with you. Very, very nice looking car.



    "alteredpilot, post: 6393606, member: 2491"]This car absolutely falls into the mild custom category.

    done on a working man's budget and painted in a two car garage (by me).

    frenched headlights, shaved doors, welded and filled hood, nosed and decked, shaved gas filler, custom tail lights (all done by Ian Berky Kustoms).

    finish body work by Vintage Metal.

    Interior by Santy's Upholstery.

    chrome and stainless by Restoration Pieces.

    before you go off the hook and start calling my car a show car or anything else , i took the EXACT same approach a guy would have taken in 1958. one piece at a time. do the most within budget and make it as nice as possible.

    this is what we wound up with...
