1951 pics tell me what you think

took it out to a carshow got it striped and took some pics let me know what you think.

 

very nice. good work.

 

Most Kool.I love it .
It brings back memories of many friday & sat. nites in the early 60's street racing in our hot rod 51 chev.

 

very nice custom

 

one of my favorite cars . my first car was a 51 slant back . I hopt it up with 2 single barrels and split exaust. side pipes and spinners with portowalls.but it didn't hold a candle to yours. a great looking car you got there. johnrodz

 

I like it!!! Stripin at a show always is a topic starter. Great Stripin

 

i like the scallops and the color choice. heck i like the whole car, but im partial to 51's mainly Fords but the Chevys had some good looking cars then. just to prove my point my house was even built in 1951 lol!!

 

ya my dad had it in the back yard for like ten years and then he gave it to me and he helped me work on it and 1 year and 6 months later walla. thanks for the replys check out the hydros.

 

Say Bomber how does the car ride with the hydros? What kind of drive line are you using? (4 link, spring) I can get a hydro setup from a freind very cheep and I think it would be easy to install.

PS. Your ride is smooth and shit that's a big tank in the trunk.

 

it just has the original leafs init but i have an open drive line and a rear end from a nova.

 

id love to see the cops face when he tell you to open the trunk!!!!

 

me to

 

Do you have any picks of what you did up on the front of the car? I assume you cut the front spring and cut a hole for the cylinder correct? How many batteries are you using?
Hope I am not asking toooooooo many questions.

 

ya ur right about that part the cylinder comes up throught the whell well in the engine compartment and i am runing 3 batteries

 

Me likey....like the color scheme....hardtops rule!

 

here are some more pics feel free to ask more questions

 

Looks great to me...

 

thanks

 

I was fortunate enough to see this car in person at our car show. Took lots of pictures. the hydro set up is top notch. I was drooling all over it. wishing I went with juice instead of air. Nice clean custom 51bomber, congrats.

 

thanks for the reply that was a pretty good show you guys had some really neat cars out there and even chico brought his car out but anyways good show hope you guys have it next year ill be there

 

shit looks sick!. sittn in the weeds or sky high...luv'n it!

 

Damn Dros your a brave man my last ride with dros almost knocked my teeth out. Your car looks sweet and the stances are perfect. The lines on the hood look great to.

 

nice car...... hay does your daddy know your on a adult site?

 

thanks and no he doesnt y u gonna tell him and how are ur honda seat working out in your durant

 

Very nice ride and of course the hydraullic set up is cool.How did you figure out your set up ?

 

Thatz kool shiznit!

 

okay...
you asked....

i really love this body style.
i think theres alot going on here.

IMHO...
the stuff on the skirts is too much, and the car is a little too busy down near the rockers.

the striping is marginal at best and i would have waited until the hood was finished properly.

don't get me wrong...
no bashing, just an honest constructive opinion from a guy who owns a 52 coupe and a painter/pinstriper.

 

Wow! You own a painter/pinstriper?
J/K, I tend to agree with the skirts being a little busy, but I have to say overall your car has "it". I would rock that paint job all day long.

 

Suite ! That car kicks ass !

 

I'm diggin' the ride !
The only part I'm not feeling is the cut steering wheel . To me , it always seems like an accident waiting to happen ...
