Customs The Hottest Kustoms Lately...

This is what R&C wrote about the tires. I have to ask John about hem.

"Wheels & Tires
A quartet of 16x5.5-inch Vintique '40 Ford-style steels wrapped in Coker Classic rubber stop this tail-dragger from literally living up to its name."


A better look before the front fenders where mounted.

 

THE FRENZ...O brother this is what customs should be, man o man o what beautiful customs. did anyone notice the bronz 57 olds. behind the green merc. you folk's in europe can see the way we do it. in my eyes a custom has to be appeling. at 1 time all americans had OUTHOUSES, and there was a good reason they were kept in the back yard! granted many euro's have very fine customs...POP.

 

This thread is amazing. I know that I'm just a FNG, but I really dig the HAMB's very own Ian Berky's 51 Chevy. That car is just gorgious. I know Rikster has some photos, maybe you could help me out. I haven't had time to figure out how to do post pics just yet.

 

Ok, I think I got it. I stole these picsof his 51 from Ian Berky's album, I really hope he doesn't mind. This car is just a sweet ride!

 

Please, don't get me wrong. That car is a piece of art, and the tires are the best-looking radials around. I just think it could improve a little bit with a wider white wall.

I will shut up now...

 

I saw that '36 up close in a parking garage in Austin at last year's Roundup. It had been driven in the rain and it was a mess. Awesome. I wouldn't change a thing. It was so stunning in as-used condition in that garage, left a big impression on me.

 

Can mine come out and play too?

 

It looks awesome, Joe...I can't wait to see it!

 

Not a custom per say but ....DAMN!! I did not expect this car to turn this nice, for a Gasser too.

 

holy shit joe!!!! that looks soo good! like whole new car.. god job men.. you too bill

 

im trying to finish up my 63 cadillac for my wife.

 

Out of the corner of my mouth....I understand lownslo54 is putting together one that will put all others to shame.

 

Hahaha, ya Dave, us women kustomizers need to stick together right?

 

I personally love it but thats only me.

 

That's very kind HRC!!!

 

How much did Dave pay you to post that picture???? I never tell him but it's one my favs. Ya know,don't want it to go to his head and all...

 

I love his Hudson too. He really did a great job on it.

 

Thanx for postin this Merc, i dont think it should be here as its more of another category really, but i like it a lot and i only had a rear and side shots.

 

I thought you´d like that. Squint a bit and it ccould almost be a Taunus!

 

^^^ ah ah ah..^^^
Well maybe the front, but the whole car flows a lot better! Its another world!
Still a familir grille, if it wasnt that rare i'd try scoop one actually!

 

The imagination of some builders are just amazing. Great thread that is good with morning coffee. Great way to start a day.

 

WHOA, I like these pics of this car.You can't go wrong with a 36, stock or kustom

 

Ryno, I saw this Caddy at the Lonestar Roundup this past weekend. That thing is sick brother!!! My wife saw it and now she wants me to start on my 62 Caddy so she can drive it! It was her favorite car of the show.

 

I'll play...
Here is one I'm just finishing up.
It's on the mild side and heavily influenced by the Vaughn car

 

Here's a couple from Northeast Ohio :




and

 

Wow! Some great cars in here... Sheesh.. I'm going to have to step it up...

 

beautiful cars, kustoms are where its at for me.

Im hoping my indian makes a splash when i get it done, but at the rate im going itll probably be another year before its even able to be rolled around again.
