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

WoW that's awesome!!!

 

Here is a photo I took of the same car in the mid 50's when it was in a car show at El Camino College in Torrance, CA .....

 

Thats Herb Conways car Jr Conways older brother. Did you take any pics of Juniors Ford

 

I don't remember it being at that show, but there were several other well known customs there.

 

Kurt about has his Buick ready. Is it to early for a "Very Kool" can't wait to see her this summer.

Now that is a bitchin' car. The 8 lug wheels even look custom here.

 

You guys should see the rear of that '61 Pontiac, WAY cool!

I'll see if I can find a photo...

 

Only one I can find:

 

@Sancho I found a few...

 

How about this '49 Olds, built in Sweden by Magnus Karlsson?
Bumpers and side trim are '51 Packard, tail lights '53 Pontiac SW.
I love the shaved drip rail on the chopped top. (2 1/2" to 4")
Under the hood is a 4 carb J2 371!

(From RodCityGarage.)

 

That is so cool I had to look it up so I could see the front. Looks like there were 2 grill/bumper versions.
I like the Oldsmobile grill with bumper and guards better.




Although I wonder how it would look with the Oldsmobile grill and the smooth bumper....

 

Very Kool! I love to see chopped fastbacks done right and this one is purrfect. Shawn Mundy is building this one, going to be kool.

 

^ WOW!

 

That Island girl is crazy kool I really dig it.

 

Nice use of Imperial lights.

Welcome back.

 

I'm digging the exhaust exits; it took some tube bending!

 

Some of my favorites from the 2002 Stray Kat 500

 

More from SK500 2002

 

Okay, what's the story on this?
Looks like a 1950 Hudson convertible with a top added from something else...

 

I thought this was a real hardtop Hudson. Didn't think it was once a convertible. Now ya got me thinking.....

 

Spotlights have their place on some Kustoms. On a smooth body line kustom I can see not wanting to run them but on a kustom with a lot of chrome., I believe they have should run them. Kustoms are built to make them look Fancier, that is why you see Cadillac parts being used on kustoms I'm a huge fan of spot lights so its kind a hard to explain why. Its a sickness that I don't want to take the cure.....

 

On second thought I think it is a hardtop. What threw me off was the removal of the trim on the A-pillars and across the front of the roof.

Without it the windshield header looks "taller". Because of this, it reminds me of the windshield header on a convertible.

 

I don't know why but the paint job on this makes me feel like it is missing a giant set of bull horns on the hood and Buford T Justice behind the wheel.
