Features Kustoms blues? I need to see some kustoms....

Hey Lost Angel,,,some your photos have a familiar background !

 

The black and whites are from the old Masten ave Armory shows in the 60's. Some of the others are from the Olean Street Masters shows in the late 70's, early 80's. -MIKE

 

One of my all time favorite Kustoms. Kool that it is still around today...

 

I would own that Buick right now....and then immediately get in it and drive it to work. Definitely in my all time top 10.

 

Here's my 53 Capri

For those who don`t know, Ray`s Buick used to be a 4-door. ^ ^

 

Marcus Edell bought the Joe Roth 59 Impala. One of these days it would be kool to own a Kustom that was built around this time period. Below are some of the pics from then and know.

 

Well I guess that settles it, stuffed animals are traditional!
Neat then and now pics Mickey.

 

I love the Angel Hair display.

 

The angel hair display makes me itch.

 

Marcus is now selling it. Here's your chance Mickey!

Someday. The sad thing today isn't that day..

 

^For me neither.

 

Does this count? My 1962 Chrysler 300 custom project, her name is Lolita, named after the movie from 1962, and I was also born in 1962. I thought, how cool to build a top of the car from that era.

 

Had my friend Andrea, airbrush a favorite Vargas pin up girl to the firewall, which was smoothed, using the front bed piece from a 63 Chevrolet truck, cut down.

 

Lolita

 

Love the "bubble top" Chrysler. Nice job on the firewall as well. Hope to see more on this one.

Thanks, poor guy here, and only half way there, some day though

 

The wheels say G-machine more than kustom.

I like it as an OT ride, but it doesn't really fit on this thread.

 

To each their own right, she has 14 inch white walls on her for rollers now, so if it's just the wheels that excludes it from being a custom, problem solved lol!

 

14s with white walls

 

I like to bundle it all up as a resto rod, pro touring, custom, with a dash of rock and roll, dipped in sexy as hell!

 

The wheels can be changed out at any time. Matter of fact, I may show the 14s on it at some shows, and the custom wheels on it at others, simple fix

 

Right now I'm in dire need of sponsorship, or a winning lottery ticket. I'm just a painter in a body shop, and it has taken me 6 years to get this far.

 

Mickey,
You would need a support vehicle just to carry the angel hair. LOL

 

Love those '62 Chryslers! Do you have a build thread on the HAMB? Post the traditional-friendly stuff so we can follow along!

 

No, but I do have three photo albums of it on my Facebook, maybe I will put one on here too.

 

Found a few. I must have thrown a lot away when I moved.
I remember seeing pictures of the 39 Ford in an article on the Hartford Conn. custom auto show in one of the little page magazines. It was restored by Don Low (sp) and debuted at the KKOA show in Springfield Ill.

 

A 53 Olds I use to own.
