    Looks perfect. Imagine if it had some thick gushy,shiny window frames w/working vent windows. Beautiful roof line!

    I think it was built by a bloke called Gary Janes - the car is currently for sale & he's posted a possible swop w/my truck...very tempting...

    Ernie, Thank you for the Fleetline photos! I'm trying to see as many Fleetlines chops as I can before I cut mine. I like the A post detail on that hardtop conversion. [​IMG]

    I agree and I also would lower the car some more.It looks very smooth.
    And v8minor,your '50 Chevy looks very promising !

    Hey Kustombuilder,
    I hope you don't mind if I post some more pics of the Kaiser.

    Thank you ! I thought the collection wouldn't be complete without some more pics of the Ford.I don't exactly remember anymore in which mag I saw this sled for the very first time
    but I guess in was in Rolls & Pleats.I took a magnifying glass to soak up this incredible work.I simply couldn't get enough of it...

    To the left you can see the Epstein Chevy.

    Perfect...

    The grille bar and the side trim are on same height AND the centre of the wheel is on this height too...
    By chance ? I don't think so.

    thanks. . .this post rules!

    frenz. . great pics! the back end of that kaiser is insane- the body looks like it is draped over a solid form beneath.

    maybe the sherbert primer colors are important to those guys but I would love to see the kaiser and the ford in sold color shiny paint.

    Who is the actual sculptor that is doing this stuff? Again, it is really impressive.

    Since I currently own a couple of Chevys (a '50 2dr that's in Kustombuilder's delicate hands) and a '49 Fleetline, I have been gathering numerous pics of '49-'52 Chevys (many of the Japaneese ones). I've got them on my web site, take a look.

    These guy's cars are the slickest around (IMHO). i FUCKIN LOVE that maroon 49. Could stare at it all day! I have one problem with their rides though. Everytime I seem em I wanna do more to my car, which slows down my proccess!!!

    damnit

    Man, after seeing all thes pics of these awesome Chevys, I'm gonna head out to the parking lot to get in my 52 to go get some lunch. I'll be thinking my car looks like such a turd now. (Not that I thought it was all that great before, but...)

    Thank you all for sharing the pics!
