The 'B-Bird' custom concept

Brown Bear · Post by **Brown Bear** » Wed Jun 04, 2008 7:49 am

Another 'Paint' custom concept - the inspiration being the T-Bird of course.
I had intended it to be an FB but the lighting on this EK was just right.

Obviously it would look better in white, and with a little round porthole window behind the door, but heres a starter anyway. Feel free to add / subtract / change / modify / love / hate as you please

Needs to be longer in the front and shorten the rear... I'll have a go tonight if I get the chance.

FB MAD, you said something similar re the coupe ute, and seem to have a fixation with 'bubble' cars...

Is there a 'short car' hiding in the shed you haven't told us about

...

Brown bear where is the original phot, I have given up looking for a side on view. I just can't find the magic word in the search function that will bring up the thread you took it from

Brown Bear, I'm not known around town here as being "short" in any particular way

Do have an EK that's short though .

Someone cut it's bum off for a lounge

Not me!!

DR - the original picture is on the 2005 nationals photo CD. I'll post it up when I get the chance. Should be interesting to see if the idea can be improved...

FB MAD - Not short in height, but in length

... was thinking perhaps you'd made a deal with Bob and Evelyn

Yep, I remember the "Bob and Evelyn Show"...... classic viewing there.

Can someone throw up the Bob and Evelyn posts again.... I'm on for a laugh!!

Oh, and yes, of course I was referring to length BB
