36 chev sedan

[36FD]

Thought I would post some pics of my rod. It started out as a 4 door sedan. I closed in the back doors, channeled the body 8", put it on a 72 chevelle frame that was narrowed and shortened. It has a 400 hp 350/350 combo. It was painted in a flat red. Just need to put the windows in and wait for the white stuff to go away so I can take it out.

I love it! You will probably never have trouble finding that in a parking lot. Great job!

[clLooks good very different. You gonna keep those rear fenders? If so I think you need to bob them my2cents. Keep us posted.

For me, i would like to see front fenders on it, like two VW rears put together on each side and attached to the suspension to move with the front wheels. Cool ride anyway you look at it. Big thumbs up for originality.

Very original. Way to think outside the box. I like it.

Think I agree with Earthman on the fenders.

fenders

l agree, add front fenders and running boards or lose the fenders all together.

looks good, hope my four to two door conversion looks as nice as youre's when l get mine done later this year..

Thanks for the ideas on the car. I had to keep the rear fenders with the suspension change the rear inner fenders had to be adjusted to fit and it looked like crud without them. The rear fenders had to be streched out 2.5" each side to make everything fit. I am still undecided what to do in the front I will most likely leave it as is unless something I really like comes up.
