Topic: Whaddyacallit #501- Jim Still golf cart built from a wrecked 1954 Ford

Ever seen this ? I didn't.
But, as the ex-owner of one of these cars (full size) I couldn't resist posting this one.

So, if you did, please respond below and let us know who is responsible for the car posted here. You may find this image easily, but finding who build it may be another story.
As usual, remember that detailed answers speak for your good name amongst senior autopuzzlers (and in this case, will earn you two points, it's the least I can do).

Thanks!

Looked around a bit, as I had seen another photo of this cart from Woodward.  Found a page for a guy who built one that looks exactly like this one, except it is yellow.  Could be the same one.

"The golf cart shown below belongs to Jim Still, Lorton,VA, a member of the Colonial Beach Cruisers. Jim and his daughter built this cart from an actual wrecked 1954 Ford. All the parts were cut down to scale,

Jim often rides the cart around Colonial Beach many weekends. This cart gets much attention from both locals and visitors.  Jim is the owner of the 1954 Ford museum at the beach. I will have a separate page on the museum."

Thanks a lot, Hugo. It seems you've earned a point, an made one happy man. This cart seems amazingly well built, and I didn't know of a Museum dedicated to the 1954 Ford! Although I loved mine, it seemed rather dull aesthetically speaking ( a black sedan with ivoty top).
I'll do a little more searching with the elements you gave us.

The point goes to Hugo, of course, I forgot to say. Here are other pictures of the yellow cart, which appears not to be the same, with a newer or older paint, and of a 1956. The red 1954 seems the nicest of the three.
