Lots of work in this Street Rod. Modified Prefect or American 40s Ford nose, dropped headlights, bonded in windscreen, shaved gutters, radiused door corners etc.
Earlier, late 40s grille behind it with custom bonnet sides.

Ribbed roof & louvres. Pops were made during the steel shortage after the War, so left the factory with a vinyl panel in the middle of the roof. Most people weld in steel inserts these days, but it's a double curvature panel, so the trick is to find something in the scrapyard with a similar curve. Some use Mini roofs, Moggy Minor roofs, or ribbed Vauxhall Astra van roofs, though I'm not sure this is one of those cos the ribs are usually shorter & I think there's less of them on an Astra. Mine uses the rear half of a 1960s Rover P6 saloon roof.

All done. I always say I'll be back in mine next year, but next year I really will!  |
