Extreme Veteran Posts: 494 Location: Alberta | Too much for words......My thoughts were maybe he was hauling Buddies Bug (VOLKS BEETLE) in the trunk and just didn't have room for the roof rack | ||

But, don't worry, I have faith that he's working on it. No, since guys who love the cluttered up look don't like fender skirts, as they make the appearance of a car smoother and cleaner. | ||

Location: The Mile High City | I gotta say, if you must have a Continental kit - that's a pretty good way to do it - especially for the 1959 Dodge with the sectioned bumper. I think it is better than extending the whole bumper out and having gap fillers. | ||

Location: The Mile High City | ...and, if that rear spare is fixed, you pretty much have to have a luggage rack since the trunk is now non-functional.
it all makes sense!

Expert 5K+ Posts: 9681 Location: So. Cal | I would too, and that goofy continental kit & fuzzy dice would get thrown in the recycle bin as soon as it landed on my driveway. | ||

Member Posts: 5 | I think the continental kit on the 57 Ford was a function addition. When I was a young kid a family had one and when the top was up there was a lot of truck room but when the top was retracted there was very little trunk room. | ||

Expert 5K+ Posts: 7409 Location: northern germany | Paul Hettick - 2021-06-10 1:00 PM Fender skirts are part of the pimpmobile package Not realy, always part of the option list during the FL years, unlike those goofy continental kits an wire wheels. | ||

Expert Posts: 2101 Location: Idaho - where men are men and spuds are spuds | It would be interesting to see what the front of the car looks like. Maybe a light bar in the grille with yellow fog lamps??? | ||

Veteran Posts: 281 Location: WA/USA | Well, if you think about it the luggage rack makes sense. With the continental kit blocking any reasonable access to the trunk....... the rack comes in pretty handy! | ||
