    I think with the right things done to it, it could make a rad custom.

    49 Packard. Yes, it has a straight eight. Just called him. Its mine. 4 hours away. I will have it in my hands in a couple weeks. Comes with manuals. Can't wait till the wive gets home to tell her. Could go either way. Worth the surprise I guess. Ha, ha.
     
  16. Who Cares if it's HAMB friendly? If you like it, or the wifey will, then go for it and don't worry about a bunch of keyboard warriors. There are no rules when you build what YOU like!

    That is super cool. There is a guy who has a fully restored 4 door locally that drives it all over. Even as a 4 door it's a pretty cool car.

    That will make a very cool cruiser.

    x2. Build what you like. I like the color,too. Spoked Packard wheels, how about ghost flames in a similar pink? We'll all comment, but have it your way, as they say.
