    Lyle Willits, Your keen eye for photography, as well as the sunny day (on which my camera was dead), makes for some great shots! Any more, please post 'em up!

    flyin-t,
    That's a real bomb shell!!!!
    Norm Grabowski's truck seemed to be under everyone's radar (Google turned up very little), and certainly deserves special recognition for its history. Thanks for the link!

    Hopefully, someone will add some more pictures of it from the show? (I can't be the only one who photographed it!)

    What caught my eye about this clean '50 was the unique headlight rims.
    Big like Olds, tunneled, like Ford.

    Turns out, they are vintage accessory items, designed to install right over the stock Chevy headlight ring!

    The interior of Cody Walls' Chevy is seldom photographed, but is one of the many outstanding features that helps put this great custom over the top!

    And for you pups that think traditional customizing didn't include the use of earlier parts, it was done in the Fifties, and it's done now. Hubcaps are '52 Buick Sombreros.

    'Mo...

    Thanks so much for these ! Sondre & Olav are both great, hard-core Kustom guys !!

    Sondre and myself have been in contact with one another for many years and share Info with each other on our Sites. He works his tail off putting his Kustomrama Site together...and it shows ! He told me he was hoping for a great turn-out in New Jersey...told him I wished I could be there too !

    Olav & I spent some time together last year in Salina when he was working with Brad Masterson...a super young man, keeping the torch burning as a new generation of builders is coming up !!

    Thanks again for these cool pix...and, congrats to Sondre & Olav on a job well done ! (PS: Sondre is a new dad too...and he's digging on that !!)

    Dallas Gregory snapped this shot of the Grabowski truck. Is this straight, or what?
