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

Love that car! Saw it in Wildwood at the Customs by the Sea show last October. I think I remember you telling me the car had a pry cool story too. Don't remember what it was, but was cool talking to ya.

 

My Chevy in my Avatar is my mild kustom , it still has the 6 cyl. and 3 on the tree .

 

Kenny....I didn't see any more photos of it on your Profile page.....It's worth bigger pics...... Centurion9

 

I second that motion! Cmon.....Kenny!

 

Yeah, show us some pics, she looks sweet!

 

Hay guys thanks for the nice words , I'm not good on the computer but i'll try to get some pictures to load no here ?

 

fyi when you get the pics in the computer... right click, resize pics (left click), small, hit ok.
this will help with uploading on this site. doesnt like too big a pic on here. found out the hard way. good thing my little brother is a computer guy.
nice car by the way.

 

Very tasteful. It's perfect.

 

BTT!!

 

Bumping this up, with some mild Ponchos (from http://customrodder.forumactif.org/).

This one would once have competed in the designated "Conservative Custom" class.
Check out the immaculate inner-fender paneling!




Can you believe this next guy deleted the license guard? I love it!
I bought split '55 Poncho bumpers for my '50 Chevy, from someone who bought them just to get the license guard for his '50 Chevy!

Those beautiful frenched tail lights are why I made this post.




One more, also in green (well, almost.)!

 

I like the look of this Pontiac bumpers without the license guards!

 

Would you consider this a Mild Custom? In for spring updates and getting ready for summer cursing.

 

Figured I would join in with a car I just bought. Body work done by DeRosa customs. It's nosed, decked, rounded hood, door and trunk corners, molded front fenders to rockers and shaved cowl, flared rockers, shaved handles and side trim. prepping for paint and interior soon.

 

I consider just about any unchopped car a mild custom unless it's bone stock. Nice scallops.

 

Back Up!

 

Nice start. DeRosa is a modern day Picasso....a real artist!
How about some more mods before paint?

Perhaps the coolest tail lights lights for your car that I've seen are 1961 Dodge.

There was a quad headlight, 390 powered Ford custom in a sixties HRM that was memorable for their use.
They required some trunk-side extension pods to incorporate, with the fender top rounded down to meet.
I tried to find a picture, but came up short. DeRosa could certainly pull it off!
They would make your Ford one to remember fifty years from now!

 

I have a set of those taillights. Some day I'll use them on something...

 

any body have any history on the ford and the chevy

 

JUST FINISHED: 1956 Mercury. Mild Custom

 

Oh My God! Badass!

 

@roddin-shack is the merc yours?

 

roddin-shack..., that Mercury is the tits! really love the undercarriage detail. Thank you for sharing.

Mr. woolnough you have brought up one of my favorite photos from this thread. Don't know anything about it, except that it makes me wish I was there. Did you notice the purple '59 Ford behind the '60? It looks to me like it has been sectioned. And, yes the Chevy is cool. Like the color on it. Would like to know about several of the cars in the background too.

Yup! That's IT!

 

I kept the "mild custom" theme on my '49 Mercury.

 

Only that they were painted by Watson.
