1936 Cadillac V16 Fleetwood Town Sedan.
They were all Barndoor Buses. 1949 thru 1955.
I was going to say all those pictured had no "visor" over the windshield and the air intakes on the sides were stamped outward instead of inward. Not sure the years those were changed.
Maybe a little Yankee engineering would help. A little Mark IV Big Block Chevy power might change some of the " Slowbus " impressions.

Everyone knows I don't particularly care for slammed vehicles. But in this case its inevitable what with the weight of that motor! Besides, you're not going to be able to steer it, so the front wheels might as well point forward...
I seriously doubt the chassis is even remotely close to resembling a VW Transporter , and why exactly wouldn't you be able to steer it?
Went to the back to the 50’s show today. Only took one picture of a car that seemingly once was everywhere and is now rarely seen.

Fox-body Cougar. You're right; rarely seen, anymore.
Same with the thunderbird variant. Used to be several in our small town.
I've always liked the Lincoln variant, the Mark VII LSC...

I added to my post above. Knew a few people with those too. Did they all get smashed for clunkers?
I've seen several for sale within the past couple of years (Mark VII Lincolns, that is). I'd really like to have one, someday. I'm a fan of the Fox body cars, in general. Easy platform to play with. I know there are several folks on this forum that would agree.
