1967 Ford Thunderbird Sedan with 1932 Dubonnet Xenia #1 proportions .

Another quick cross country slop-chop by Tyler Linner and me.

 

I noticed the c-pillar door cut on the first Dubonette Xenia was a close match to that of the 67 Thunderbird sedan's. My friend and One-of-The-Big -Three-designer and Modeler , Tyler Linner suggested we try to apply Xenia #1's proportions to the Bird.

 

A flurry of e-mails and evolving jpegs ensued.

 

The most striking feature is Tyler's nifty bobbed tail and wind-line.

 

Lengthening the front --plus a wee bit of channeling and chopping produced this odd but compelling Thunder- duck.
