Smoothing the trunk hump

[rustyrodder]

Has it ever been done?


By smoothing, i mean removing the 'hump' and having the lid smooth across, similar to the T-birds. Im looking at a gen2 rear, and it looks like it would be a matter of cutting out the center section and shaping to match the sides. or have some fun with fiberglass.

I have nothing to say to you, What Makes a Mark a Mark Is its distinctive mark of the hump

Agreed!!!

 

[NYC LS8]

Agreed as well.

If you want it to look like a T-Bird, go buy a T-Bird.

I am cutting into almost every panel on Stacks mark, and that is one thing that never even crossed my mind.... the mark is the hump!

 

[DieselDan]

It has been done before, I saw it forever ago. Go look on Markviii.org, thats where I saw it last.

 

[mikemark8]

I asked about taking off the hump, not converting the frontend, taillights, doors, suspension, and swapping in a 2v.

I vote for ban..... and a spanking.

If you cut the hump off it would look like this. :barf:

Leave the hump alone, it is an integral part of the vehicles aerodynamics package. It helps airflow coming over the roof, remerge when exiting the vehicle.

and a spanking.

is that a promise? :shifty:

 

[LaserSVT]

The spanking is for me.

I think Geno? photoshopped a gen 2 without a hump. It didn't look like a photoshop either. And it just didn't look right I didn't think. If it wasn't Geno it was somebody. Straight on rear shot.

I agree, you get rid of the hump, you're killing the whole car.

same here, guess we all think alike

 

[02LS8Lincoln]

to me thats a Mark tradition. Every Mark had a hump...the hump started out with actually having a spare tire inside. I dont think it should be smoothed out I mean thats my opinion.

 

[LaserSVT]

Thats scary. :lol:

:slam :slam :slam :slam :thread: Humpless are you Drunk?

 

[1994MarkVIII]

Laser i like your avatar of that bus fight. funny as hell!

 

[Staffamerica74]

I want to see one without a hump... I think it would look a bit like the earlier sables.

 

[97MarkJA]

I saw one, the guy used part of the skin off a cont. It wasn't bad looking with the spoiler he had. I think the spoiler came from a tbird body kit. If not for the spoiler it would have looked awful!

 

[Lownslowlsc]

with the right spoiler it could look good
