I have wanted to do one of those for awhile. They would be bad as a nasty pro-touring ultra cruiser. That car is just begging to be wedge sectioned in the rocker just tiny bit. Cut out the floor and build a tube chassis. A solid rear axle with some bitchin front suspension would be perfect. Those cars have million miles of room under the hood. I would minimize the Chrome on the car. Use a lot of the original styling and just modernize all the vents and reveals.
Troy is doing a 54. It should be interesting.
