He has an entire video series where he is transforming a 1956 Chrysler Windsor 4 door hardtop into a two door hard top. He also shortens and chops the car as well. I'm sure some of you will not care for what he is doing, but his skill and craftsmanship are really impressive. Here is the first video in the series.

I've never seen the tire between the tow chains before. If you use a tow rope, the rope itself has some give, so you wouldn't need this. It seems he wanted a 300B. He could have started with a 2dr '56 Chrysler/DeSoto/Imperial with an Imperial grill and avoided the vast majority of the work he is doing. These '55-'56 cars sell cheap. I bought my '56 DeSoto 2dr car with a very clean body for $300. It doesn't make sense to put that much time & work into something he could have just bought. But the great thing is that absolutely no one cares what you do to a 4dr '56 Windsor, so if he doesn't mind spending the time on it, go for it.

I don't really care for the modifications he did to the rear bumper though. Custom mods like that need weeks of thinking & visualizing before you do 2 hrs of cutting that you will end up regretting.
Personally, I'm creating a custom car with my '56 DeSoto as well, but it will have a New Yorker engine, bumpers & tail lights on it. That's about as far as I want to go on the customizing. The '56 New Yorker, Imperial & Fireflite are such underappreciated designs. Very good looking.

Very impressive! "Can do" attitude and the skill to make it happen.
