    Great crop of Kustoms, 'kat'!

    One of my favorites, built by none-other than Dick Bertilucci.
    Drawer pulls up front, too!

    I fell in love with Shoebox Fords from the James Karcher (bumpered) version of the Ray Soff Ford (as it has come to be known). That double Merc grille shell just seems so right for these cars!

    BTW, That top was chopped a whopping SIX inches!

    I'm sure Ismael Robles had his reasons for ditching the gull-winged-top, but it sure changed the car!

    I went through the LeMay museum in Tacoma Wa on Sunday. Great stuff in there. But there was a 56 Caddy called Kustom Kad. No additional information on the card. Probably the best chopped mid 50's caddy I have ever seen !!! Anybody know anything about this Caddy ? IMG_3926.JPG IMG_3927.JPG

    The 58 Olds has a wrap I'm thinking or is there paint that turns out like this, I've seen the chrome paint videos that look like a real chrome job, are they now tinting that process, Just Curious
