Would you build a 4 door muscle era car?

[stangbanger]

Heck yeah! More doors works for me. More useable and just a little different.

this is also coming from the guy jonesing for a late model Crown Vic in full grandpa dress with an STS turbo......

i like SOME 4 door cars, heres the catch - it CANNOT have a b-pillar, so when the windows are down it looks like one big window example like the pic eagle posted. i still want to get another 68-71 olds 98 foor door, I missed that car with its power everything and 455

i have a 55 desoto firedoom 4dr one of you 4dr lovers really needs,,,before you ask,,the hemi and grill are gone..

four doors kick ass.

I had a 1974. loved it..

I thought you may have found my favorite.. but I guess that is 1968-69.

the 67 is still big hollow trunk.

I still have only found one 68 on the web for sale.

a bunch of photos

I think they are cool. I dig the g-man look on them. Dog dishes, black walls, base models in subdued colors. Unlike the rest of you, I prefer the post cars. Looks more under cover to me. I would love to have a '70's fury just like the one Fred Dryer drove in the '80's TV series "Hunter".

I'd build one to cruise in/DD...not necessarily a racer of any stripe.

2-doors are still preferable.....but I can't shake the idea of a late 70's/early 1980's Malibu "quadraport"......LS power with either SC/turbo assistance....upgrade the suspension/steering to match...but leave the external appearance grandma-fresh. might have to mini-tub the rear, allow for slightly wider tires...but steelies with the poverty caps.

Terrorrize some smarmy punks in much more visually pleasing rides...heh heh heh

*DAMN, Arild.....never thought the backside of a mid-70's Chevelle could look anything other than ugly. BIG difference without the factory guard-rail bumper*

I like em without the post. I think the undercover cop car look is cool on them too (not flashy,right stance) and they have to be suprisingly fast too. Andy would you be interested in another Cougar I think a 70, convertible. A guy I know has it at his shop and I was going to see what was up with it. Its on Rt 22 about and hour and a 1/2 from LVD.

Wow ! Cool !

Is it a hardtop or post car? The 67 Chevelle 4 door hardtop would be my first choice. (The answer to your question is yes.) I have actually been casually looking for one. For a daily driver-type classic that is different but still cool. EFI LS V8, modern trans, AC, boomin stereo, bucket seats, 17" wheels, no worries about originality...

Here's a decent example:




This one if for sale locally near me, but is not a hardtop. The post makes it harder to keep the cool factor (in a four door.)



Come to think of it, Brian should check this one out. Need to get his price down to something realistic.

I think 4 doors can be built cool,but you have to go other ways than with a 2 door..the sleeper look works..the FBI CIA look works...4 door bodys wont look good in flashy colours,but dark brown blue red silver black etc..

This Chevelle 71 4 door have been built here in Norway..it has a 496 and a 400 trans..

You guys have shown some great examples. I think they can be done very nicely, and when you're hauling all your buddies around, and they aren't small, those extra 2 doors are gold.
