Features The Definitive "MILD CUSTOM" Photo Thread....

lurve the colors in this shot.

 

Awesome thread
Im going to the garage now....

 

I know this picture is more me than the car, but its such a great picture that I had to share with you guys.

 

This car makes me weak in the knees. Beautiful.

 

Great thread and some awesome customs!

 

Pretty mild. Molded grill, lowering, and a paint job in future but everything else pretty much as shown.

Here's my '56. It was done by Jim Barnett of Deltona, Fl. I've done some cleanup, mostly engine setup, except I removed the side pipes because I just don't like them.

 

Why do you consider this such a "great picture"...???

Personal preference

 

he looks sad in the photo. like "aww man, I wish I could go out and cruise but I have to mow the lawn" or something.

 

I just realized that I posted that picture in the wrong thread. I meant to put it in the shoebox club thread. Don't know how I missed that when I posted it and when I responded. I will move it over there. It fits that thread better than this one.

 

a few..

 

Im really starting to dig these tri-fives as mild customs.

 

I agree,Its nice to see them done in a different style !

 

(In best Jim Kirk voice) Should... Keep..... Mouth..... Shut...... But..... Can't...... Seem.... To.......

can't see the attraction for five spokes on customs! Shit, there, I went and said it! Open season on me begins here
that said, I am digging this thread with the world's biggest shovel!

Hey you, in the back, shut your fuckin mouth buddy!!

I hear you, not my personal choice..but felt like they worked on these cars. I still dig steel wheels and full covers on customs the most.

 

I definitely feel that there needs to be built way more customized 55-7 chevys out there..All stock ones are just annoying, especially
when you know how slick they can get!

 

Does this count?

 

labold id call that one a radical

 

Actually, a "radical" involves a chopped top...that's a "full" kustom. -lots of body mods. I believe that's a '56 Chevy...not a '57.

yeah that definately aint mild, but its sick as hell!!!!! any info or history on this? i love it.. reminds me of and old dave crook car or something like that

 

Here is my favorite mild kustom, drove the wheels off of it regularly!

 

OK I`ll play, heres my 58 Coronet,I would like to do a scallop paint scheme, black/white or silver ? a little lower etc.

 

Gosh, I don't think I'd touch that. I love it.

Of course, the Forward Look MoPars were like factory customs.

I've always liked this 55 myself.

 

haha heres one more , 327 with a 5 sp ,i call it my custom hotrod

 

Hot Rod Custom indeed! I was thinking (fantasizing) the other day of putting my Falcon on a tube chassis with a Y-block and a 4-speed and that exact rolling stock. Looks good.

There is now the sound of silence, as I am in the back, shutting my fucking mouth, because I am too busy touching myself over this 55
is this the one with a black fat lucky interior that looks like it could have been designed by Darth Vader?

Darth Vader put in OT on this one.
