Dollars to donuts that the stuff that is missing is *mega* money. Yeah but I wouldn't be building concourse would I. And in the true Kustom tradition, bits from different makes from a similar age would be fitted to make that up. Like the idea of putting Cadillac rocket tail lights onto a 57 Chevy (common in the 50's as putting Lexus "Style" lights on a Paxo now) would still work just as well. If it is badges and trim strips, then smooth it. Make what isn't there the focus. I've been told by someone I have met up with a couple of times, and have long interweb discussions with regularly about rods and customs (RichKP may know him), and who happens to be one of the most fabulous panel beaters you could ever meet, and who also happens to own one of the most awesome 57 Chevies I have ever clapped eyes on anywhere, and has been on telly with Richard Wilson, that the mega expensive stuff on those old Caddies are things like the bumpers and that appears to have them there. Small trim items can be had from the states. Large trim items too, and then get them re-finished here, but it is the postage cost for moving a lump of iron girder across oceans in less time than glacial movement that costs the silly big money. You have some serious research skills. I think you're missing a trick. |
