Thread: 50 Coupe - getting there!

Tweet

Got a lot done on the back of the Coupe lately. Finally got the bodywork roughed in on the back. Now I can see what I have to go from. I was playing around with some left over bumperettes from a 53 last night as push bars.

Very sleek looking, nice job.

You look like you have an older one torn down.

Yeah, 48 Plymouth. I've got a thread on here; look at "New buildthread, 48 Plymouth". I see your from Peoria; my stepdaughter's aunt is a volleyball coach at the college in Peoria. I like your bodywork, cool looking stuff. Keep posting pics!

Are those Corvette tail lights?????

Yes they are - upside down 63. Good eye! I'm trying to go with nostalgic but different items - not catalog stuff. The engine is nothing right now, just a 350 from a 74 1 ton chevy pickup. I'll drive around with that and swap it later as the car gets nicer. Still have plans for doing the front a little different. 59 Apache rear bumper upside down, and frenching the headlights with the upper brow forward about an inch or so. Thanks for the comments.
