    Hi out there, just to let you all know about 2 of our top kustoms that have just been loaded on a ship for the US. They will be at Showcase of Kustoms at long beach and and the caddy will be on the ppg stand at SEMA and my Buick will be at the mothers polish stand at sema and we will be at a handful of other shows over the next year.So if any of you see us at the shows be sure to say hi. Justin and Mario

    Good to hear they are on their way
    I bet it will be a long wait for you till the Buick is unloaded there
    Both of these cars will show the different custom styles, and the level of quality that is built in Australia.

  8. Make sure you look after that Buick. I'm going to steal it off you one day. ;)

    Good luck with the trip.

    Make sure Mario doesn't corrupt you OR turn you into a Beatnik! LOL

    The buick is out of this world. Can you give us some details about the drivetrain and body modifications?
     
  11. Drivetrain is stock, straight 8 Buick. :)

    Roof is chopped, trunk pancaked (ask Jockey how much fun that was). Frenched headlights and not much more. It's what Jockey didn't do to the car that's important. :)

    Love that Buick, and the Caddy's OK too. ;)

    The car is even nicer now :) with 1949 Caddy hubcaps which suit the car much better I think.

    thanks Rik I knew I had to get rid of the spinner caps and your push made me do it and proud to be on your site Thanks
     
  23. Do you plan to keep the cars in the States for the GNRS? They would be a big hit for sure.

    Here is a photo of the car with the new hubcaps. (photo by Boris Viskovic)

    And another one and the car next to it - also built by Justin - has the old hubcaps on it now... and there the fit much better... in my personal opinion.
