Featured History during and pre ww2 customs and rods

The building is still there, but it's a cabinet shop now.

 

found some more rods in my archive i lost in a sorting folder

 

peep the carson topped custom in the background of this one

 

This is a “newer” photo of a car east of Austin, but built to resemble “the old days”/notice the fender skirts—-look period!!Chopped top also apparent.

 

One of my favorite modern day 40s style customs thats a 34 Ford too is Steven Schmidts 34

 

V Tab on the 42 plate

 

Another view of the RPU @Royalshifter posted, pretty darn cool..

 

In response to the photo above, I found the same hot rod while looking through my "Hot Rodding in Ventura County" book

 

Found more info on this hot rod, just posted a photo above this reply

 

The book series of “Images of America” have a few books on just hot rod photos in given California neighborhoods. This one below is from Santa Barbara.
