    Could it be that this is my old Chrysler?

    Guess it's possible. Taken last night in Morris IL at their monthly cruise night.

    How long ago did you own the car? This shot was taken in Morris, Illinois in 2009.

    That blue coupe above is beautiful! I was kinda in-between whether I wanted to add lake pipes to my '52 but now I'm sure that I do.

    Thanks again Rick! I've got a '50 coupe I might just build... I got some '55 Pontiac side trim and '52 Merc headlight rings at Stuckey's last weekend. Now if I knew what to do with the grille and bumpers... I think it could use a Dofflow-esque grille treatment and some '53 Ford bumpers. Know of anyone with a steel '49-50 Merc grille surround?

    I`m guessing it was taken in Reno at a KKOA show. In about 83 or 84. It is the award winners line up.

  29. Lots of great pictures @rudestude! Tons of cars with lots of history behind them. The 80s were good! E

    Goulart's Shoe was trendsetting, and even served as the basis for the AMT "Styline" '50 Ford model kit.
    But what really set it apart from the crowd was the '52 Ford windshield (as seen in comparison with the earlier version).
    Subtle, but Ooh so smooth!
