Cool 49

We were at the Houston Autorama today and my son took a couple pictures of a 49 that was pretty wild. I can't really remember everything that was done but it was chopped and the window frame was laid back some and I think the hood was sectioned. Also the fenders had been molded into the body. It was a very well done truck. Here is what he took. I wish that he had taken a few more but this is all he got.

That thing is sick! I can only imagine how much that took to build, and I bet it doesn't spend to much time on the street, only on a trailer.

Re: Cool 49

That was a Ridler Great 8 finalist. Looks too much like an SSR to me.

I think if the SSR looked just like this it would've sold more.

Re: Cool 49

I saw this truck in Classic Truck magazine and the metal work is incredible. On the cover of the magazine the truck is in bare metal and man it is super straight.
