  2. Lenny Legere's 1951 Ford. Easily my favorite shoebox.

    I like the car ...but I hate it when they put the pictures across the center of two pages in a magazine.... IMG_20180830_215413.jpeg

  19. No, No. Sorry, kind of an "inside" joke...

    Ryan came across that car sitting in K.C. several years ago. It has been restored since.
    He had a chance at a Clarkaiser kustom. ;)

    It's just funny, every once in a while a photo will surface....

    KNOCK-OUT collection of cars, Guys!!!
    Hard to pick a Highlight, but seeing Dave Robertson's '56 F100 in color takes the cake.
    That coarse-grain flake was a standout to this day, and the Eddie Martinez upholstery is unmistakable!
    (Martinez was to custom upholstery what Watson was to custom paint!)
    Glad to say, the (repainted) "Little Nugget" still exists!

    As awkward as this Stude appears, I still love it for its hopped up Stude V8!

    You've got the pages, rudestude. Can you fill us in on that Stude's Motor-vation??
    With what's left of my memory, my bet would be something like "Hot late model engine, chopped flywheel." LOL

    To back my claim...
    Eddie Martinez is famous for his 1" pleats. Among other innovations, he also pioneered the sculptured, contoured padding. His work was seen not only on custom automobiles, but rail jobs and drag boats as well.

    Here are but a few Eddie Martinez interiors. (Tip of the iceberg.)
