    Besides the story on Cole's blue one in TRJ, has any of those two cars been published elsewhere?

    All I know is Mike Ness' is one of the sickest kustoms anywhere. If you were gonna build an early '50s Chevy, that's the best place to start.

    Coles '54 is my all time favourite, but I'm partial to '54's. I think that it's because it has a fair amount of work done yet looks so subtle in design.
    This is from his site, there are a few little shots there.

    Garage magazine number 2 has a pic or two of them together I believe. I love 53 and 54's. Cole built some beautiful machines there. Garage magazine however...(just send me my issues that I paid for...) Sorry, OT rant.

    This thing is right up there with anything from Barris, Windfield, Cushenberry...etc. One of the nicest kustoms ever. So subtle, though the thing is practically hand fabricated. Oops, I just drooled on my keyboard.
     
  16. If my 54 looked half as slick.................................

    Cole's '54 is another outstanding example of his customizing prowess. Absolutely beautiful........

    Just thought I would throw a couple of Fortier' '53. I really think that his car is right up there with some of the nicest suttle customs with all the 53's and '54's out there

    Does anyone know what Cole used as the grille surround? Looks like a'50 Ford or ?.
    I sent him a PM but he hasn't responded,...he must be busy fixing his hair!
