Features Kustoms blues? I need to see some kustoms....

My wife knows if she hears me exclaim "oh baby!" or "son of a b*tch!" that it's a car I'm looking at.

 

LOL!

 

@loner2 Love that paint ^^^^^^^

 

Man I can't wait until Jimmy paints this. He said he was hoping to get to it soon on his Instagram when I asked about it.

 

No info with Pic, my guess by fenders/hood shape/trunk, GM late 30's maybe into 40's. Mo where are you ? somehow you seem to have the answers when this question is asked.

1940 LaSalle "The Black Pearl"

From the auction listing: https://classicauctionnews.com/2019...l-a-stunning-1940-lasalle-kustom-convertible/
Best known as “The Black Pearl”, this stunning 1940 LaSalle-based Kustom honors the Harry Westergard tradition with a modern twist. Jim Bailie of Windsor’s Metalshapers extensively reworked the original coupe body, with every body panel subtly customized in a traditional fashion. A deep black PPG exterior finish, Coker wide whitewall tires and steel wheels with ’54 Cadillac hubcaps complete the smooth and tasteful exterior.
The very luxurious ultra leather interior features 8-way power seats, a custom console, a wrap-around rear seat, and custom wooden inserts. Amenities include A/C, power windows, remote doors, a backup camera, and Dakota digital gauges.
The completely updated drivetrain consists of a 300-hp, fuel injected Cadillac Northstar V-8 engine backed by a GM THM 700R4 four-speed overdrive automatic. Underpinnings include a Camaro front subframe and suspension with disc brakes, as well as a 3.73:1 GM rear axle.

Palle Johansen's '47 Cadillac. I saw it week ago at car show in here Finland, really beautiful ride.

 

Take this straight to the "Elegant Customs'"thread.

 

Am I the only one that sees*****s in that grill?

 

Those are the naked lady`s from the hubcaps.

 

Can anyone tell me more about the Merc parked on the right in this photo, next to Lenny Legere's custom Ford?
Pretty wild front-end treatment there. Are those mirrored Stude pans forming the grille pod?

 

Those are clearly Car-yatids : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caryatid

 

I believe the Merc likely uses Plymouth pans..
(Stude pans are on the Ford.)
