History Elegant Customs

I built this one a couple years ago and sold it off, was going for a late 50's mild custom, really simple but not, I felt it was a pretty clean and classic example of a build of that era.
It was my daily driver. Who can spot the parts I used?

 

Pontiac grille, Chrysler tail-lights?..

 

Sweet ride by the way. Love the color.

 

Taillights look Studebaker to me.

The roofline on this car is spot on! More pics if you have them please, its too cool

 

This one? https://www.taildraggersyndicate.com/pages/ray-dunham-1939-lincoln-zephyr

It's a beaut! Wish it was mine.

 

Oh my that is one beautiful car all around, thanks for sharing the pics and story!

 

@Jalopy Joker
What make is the chopped mint green coupe you posted, please?
I should know it... I'm losin' it.

 

The 1939 Cadillac LaSalle opera coupe just above the Hirohata Merc?

 

Yes. Thank you.
The custom center portion of the grill threw me. That's an interesting reversal. The Cadillac LaSalle center portion of the grill is used on many early customs.
I like what they did. Beautiful car.

 

54 Pontiac grille and 47 Studebaker tail lights. 54 Stude Hawk front bezels....so many little things.

 

The car above is a 1940 Cadillac. Not a Lasalle. Was done by John Dagostino.

 

Love it.

 

This car belonged to my friend Tony Phillips who recently passed away, the car was a regular at Salinas. HRP

 

Nice... It looks to be sectioned a bit...

 

Sorry to hear you lost a friend. Looks like he had great taste and a good eye!

Love the mercs but mine is a work in progress '49 Fleetline.

 

I like Fleetlines too here's mine.

 

Classic

 

Oh !!!!

 

This is the car I wanted in high school. Clean and simple.

 

All good looking cars really like the Merc.

 

I hereby submit my coupe for consideration. Skirts coming and headlite visors going. 46 Packard grille,40 Chev hedlite pods, 34-5 Chev Master hood sides

 

Nice How quick can you get the headlite visors off.
