Re: Last Ride For Fishmouth Lovers

That certainly looks good, but I think proportionally, it would have looked a little better if it had been based on a wagon, because of the rear overhang.
Is fishmouth what you guys refer to '72s? I like that!

Ice fishing for Fishmouth, now that's funny!
But I reckon that the '72s are the best lookers, whether they look like a fish or not.
Someone at the next car show should run a cable with hook up to the front of one.

Talking Re: Last Ride For Fishmouth Lovers

whoever built it did a nice proffesional looking job, although i beleive the fishmouth grille would look better on it than the lincoln grill. 72's are the only model refered to as "fishmouth". if you' notice in a certain light, from the front they resemble a largemouth bass about to swallow a minnow. it is not meant in anyway as a putdown . {i actually like them a lot!} thinking about it the hearse would be a very classy way for a diehard ranchero lover too make his last ride.........ray

Think of how cool it would be with a toploader 4-speed
