  1. Doh! I didn't even think about you being with the shop.....
    I did look for you around Ed's El Camino. Speaking of, I guess I can post the pics I took of it here. Painted in 1970!

  3. Loved seeing Bob's Buick at the Round Up. First time to see it in person. Beautiful car! I really love the interior.

  4. This shot was posted in the bubble skirt thread and I would really like to see the whole car. Does anyone know of any photos of this car, or at least the front end? I checked Kustomrama, also checked the Dave Jenkins album on Rikster's site but came up empty.

    You either love bubble skirts or you dont. On the right car I think they look great. The pictured car falls into that catagory.

    On this application they are perfect! Of coarse if I drove that around here they would get torn off by some crater reminiscent of a WW I shell hole !

    Thanks to Lee Pratt I love 41 Buicks. When Jack Walker built his and told me they were doing a Kustom grill I almost cried. Besides the stock '32 Ford the Buick grill is one of the best designs. As always MK Kohn has a Kool eye and laid out another Kool design. You have to appreciate the guy willing to try something new.

    I wonder what is the reserve. Owning a sectioned car is on my list of Kustoms to own. Yes it is a long list...

  18. WOW! Looks like the taillights are sunk in. Is that top removable?

    Did this 50 Ford sedan for Jimmie McMorris a few years ago. Removed the "B" pillar to make it a hard top and all the side glass does roll down.

    I have no other info but it looks like maybe it stores under the huge deck lid.

    Car was built in Finland by Petri Terho. As far as I know the top cannot be removed.

    I have always thought this one was so cool.... I wish I still had my 57 Chrysler Windsor Wagon, It would be getting some fins like this one...[​IMG]
