Features The MorDor Thread: Let's see those Spare Door Hotrods/ Customs

I don't know if there is a 4 Door thread going at all, but as much as a lot of people hate them they seem to really be growing in popularity. Of the few "Cars" we have actually done builds on 80% have been 4 doors in the last 3 years. Either the 2 doors are just too damn hard to find and expensive, or people gotta move more people. I want to see some more cool 4 Door Hot Rods and Customs. Ill start. This is the 50 Chevy we sold to Netherlands last year was sweet and low. M2 slammed 305/350.

This 55 is my favorite car we have done 358 old stock car engine/ 700R4 Combo Rack and PS, PB just an all around killer cruiser.

 

fixing this one up for our wedding we're going to drive off into the sunset with cans dragging behind....pulled the banger/3 spd, dropped in a 350/ T400/8.5 10 bolt w a set of cragar ss's I must admit at some point this car will get the 2 door conversion I already have doors.....

 

There was a mordor thread posted several years ago (2008) to be exact but it's about time for another one.HRP


My old black Deuce mordor now resides in Tokyo.


And my current Deuce hiboy mordor,personally I like the style. HRP

Here the 2008 post

 

I love your new Duece Fordor HRP!

 

Like what I am seeing so far, here is our Wagon that I picked up from a Fellow Hamber a few years back almost complete just cant seem to get over center and get the glass and interior in it. There's a lot of glass in this bad boy.
Granada Front stuff for Disc brakes, Blocks in rear. GM LS3 Engine with 4L60E Trans 8" Rear with 3.00 gear it will blow the 225/70R15 out from under it doing 50.

 

How about my '40 Fordor.

 

I see you have the windshield ,do you have the rear hatch glass? HRP

 

We have all the glass. Just missing the ambition.

Thank you sir. HRP

I absolutely love this car,amazing work! HRP

 

I will say, if you're gonna drive it and live with a ride, a mordor makes life easier. Style-wise, sometimes they aren't as fetching as a 2 door, but then, a 4 door with suicide doors is often more cool, imo

 

Here is my 37 Plymouth that I am building check out the build thread below I am going for a Hot Rod look. Hobo Jim

 

Here's mine. 400/350, 8", MII. Driven 72k miles in the 27 years since I built it. Now installing power steering as I'm getting soft in my old age. Next year I'll be 80 years-old.

 

My long gone first car, that I got at 14 in 1979, first pic is 1983...

I cant get the pic to upload but I'm currently building a 62 Ford Falcon Town Sedan for the wife. It's our little family hauler. Currently lowered 2" in the front and 3" in the rear, all rebuilt front suspension, 200 inline with a 3spd auto out of a 71 Maverick, modest shave job, and currently at the upholsterer. Plan is paint next summer along with a disc brake swap and then it's "done"

 

my 64 Laurention back in 2002 , southern Ontario 40,000 miles later she's still going, here's a pic from a couple years ago in Moncton, still runs the 283 & glide.

Had a guy come up to me last year at btt50's asking about putting a Toyota Prius drive train in his Chevelle. Luckily a blown stupid cam Duce drove by and I just said if it doesn't sound like that it's not a Chevelle. I he walked away kinda pissy, but if it doesn't have the V8 sound what's the point.

Love me the 55 Mordors. Did a cool one for a guy last year. Unfortunately he didn't appreciate how sweet it sounded with the cam he wanted in it, so I had to detune it and may still have to swap out cam.

Beggars can't be choosers, with the prices of two doors right now, I'd happily cruise a more door!
