Customs Stude Coupster Gets Paint!!!!!

Well my buddy Russ got his car painted so I thought I would put some pics up of it. We hope to roll it out this weekend for some better pics.

 

Ooh sweet beejus, it looks killer.

 

That thing is just nuts.

I'm just really impressed with the "Dare to be Different" attitude some of you guys have. It is producing some killer little cars.

That is sweet!

 

Damn! I was wondering about the status of this car the other day...killer build and a testament to the builder for putting it glossy black!

 

That's an awesome idea, reminds me of the kind of stuff that Thom Taylor is illustrating for Rod&Custom magazine.

 

That's beautiful and outside-the-box, Love it.

 

You guys MUST bring that to the "Back to the 50's" show in Minnesota so I can see it!

 

Man, he out-Plow'd you!

That thing is totally bitchin, it's gonna look good going down the road with the Punk next to it.

 

very cool

 

way to go Russ. That thing is awesome. You are the body work king to make that car black!

 

for some reason, this car makes so much more sense than the P32 thing Foose did. (and I'm a fan of the P32, except for the nose)

Great job!

 

Actually Ed Newton beat him to it back in '88. these pics were liberated from a '91 Custom Rodder magazine.

....and don't forget Ray Fahrner's Eclipse from the early 60's. Nothing that has to do with hot rods or customs is really "New".

 

Nice!!

 

Looks realy good man

 

Good to see some paint on this one. Can't wait to see it outside. Looooooooooooking good!!!

cool! does it run yet?

 

The price of Studes just went up, that thing is beautiful.

 

excellent design and results! Looks fantastic!

 

Holy crap. I got a pic on my scrolling screensaver of this sucker in baremetal with a proud, beer-weilding owner appreciating the fruits of his labors. Now I got more. Damn that is sweet. SWEET.

 

Unlike me, Russ gets his cars running BEFORE he paints them. ha ha ha

He did a big smoky burnout in it back in January.

 

killer i love it!!!!

 

Love it!! 'port holes' to me they stop the flow, I give it a 9.9'lol'

 

freakin awesome...

plowboy and buds can sure build them...wow..

is this one gettin a name?

 

Normal everyday back yard garages Rule!...Littleman

 

I hope to see it at the Pile-up again this year!!! Lookin' good!!

 

Sweet!!!

 

Looks good shiny!

 

I think you're being humble.

Besides, there's a huge difference between drawing a picture, incredible and outstanding as it may be, and building something that's got it goin' on. I earn my living designing stuff, but the hat doesn't get tipped until the work is complete, not when the drawings are done.

All that aside... the Stude is awesome!!! The black is perfect.

Now please send some of the water you guys are drinkin', or whatever it is up there that makes your stuff rock so much.

 

NICE!!! Well done! I love the true rebels who take a chance and pull something off like this.
