Heres my uncles new one, replacing his TVR probably.





Not a fan myself. Wheels look too modern for it, not keen on the paintjob and V8 badge on the back.
It has a 5.7L big block Chevy V8 in it.

Need different wheels tbh, remove the badge and it'll be nicer.

Had the TVR for a few years now and wanted one of these for years, probably fancied a change.

Paint in black, red and white pin stripe, solid wheels, white wall tyres and it would look ace. Good starting point though!

The paint and wheels on that are completely wrong. Jibjob describes a nicer version

Roughly me idea of a perfect hot rod would be a cross between the ones below

and







Id take the pin stripe from the first and second pics. Either the the satin black or gloss black from those same pictures. Then the wheels would be something similar to the 2nd to last pic but maybe the others

According to Wiki (so bare with me, could be bollocks) they made Ford Pop's from 1953 - 1959.
