    Nice running board treatment.
    Not only beautiful, but under the clam-shell hood is a 354 Hemi!

    "And the Beat Goes On..."

    Typical fate of many a mild custom in the Sixties. (The decade in which Tom Wolfe penned both "The Kandy-Kolored Tangerine-Flake Streamline Baby""AND "The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test.") ;)

    Same car. Notice the "Barris Kustom City" sign on the make-over.
