Customs I took my 51' out for the first drive (videos ) and some far away profile shots!!

Right on Bro that thing is gonna be one of the sickest Kustoms... Congrats.. It has got to feel good to know your Baby is in such Great hands...One color truly shows off the amount of amazing work you put in to it...AWESOME

 

Thank you so much!! Jeff is taking my chevy to a whole different level!!

just a reminder, this is what i started with.

 

Awsome car, can,t wait to see it painted, nice job dude!

 

Thanx man...... It's all Jeff!

 

Hey man, great car. All that work you put into it paid off. That must've been a great feeling driving her around. Its beyond words. Cant wait 4 mine, that just motivates me. Good luck, cant wait to see the end result.

 

The koolest part of this thread for me aside from the obviuos killer ride is the fact that you took the time to thank everyone that had kind words for your ride. You're a Cl*** act Bro! I hope to meet you on the road one day.

 

Thank you K54!! I'm glad it can motivate people!!

Thank you!! Primer Nationals?

 

A couple more!!

 

damn that's lookin good!

 

First off Ian, I am just putting the iceing on it. the car is all you. I have got to tell you guys how impressed with Ian i am. This cat bought a welder, hunkered down in his small garage, taught himself how to weld, cut, fit, grind and do bodywork. this guy is definatly a cl*** act, and going to be ahard act to follow! He didn't sit and whine I need help !! hey anyone wanna help a brother out ! he did it himself and didn't let anything stop or get in his way ! More guys should be like this.!! HE should be damn proud ! and we should all be damn proud of him. I AM!!! I see too many guys whine and moan, i can't ,..could you help? then they want to set back and watch you do it for them. and then they want to take the credit or just don't bother to tell the whole story, so maybe everyone thinks they did it all. guys like that just annoy the hell out of me. but everyone knows in the long run who they are foolin! ussually the guy that can do about everything is the quiet guy sitting back taking notes, not talking and ranting about how tough this was, you know the story. I am just damn proud to be part of this build, helping Ian take it too the place he wants it too be, could he have finished it by himself? I think he could have, but he didn't feel he could do the job he wanted and rather then make a mess , or have less results then he wanted he outsorced it> and I'm proud to be a member on his team, thanks for the chance IAn, Big move to let someone you don't know or have ever talked too paint your car, let alone take it half way across the country! see you soon, Ian ,...with shinny painted car in back ground. I HAVE made a new friend, and a good one he is !! damn now I'm getting all soft........see what happens, thats why we can't ever be nice to each other. jeff

 

Wow Jeff!! Those are some kind words bro!! There are no words to describe how flattered i am. True gentleman!!

It's the Non believers that kept me going and there was quite a few of them!!

And i made a RAD friend!!

Ian

 

Thanx bro!!

 

WOW what a compliment.....

 

that thing is awesome...makes me want to get my 53 back out and work on it...to many projects to little time...whats great about this thread is it show how much work goes into something...and how much filler work goes into nice cars...most people dont get that fact that there is filler in a ton of show cars...thats why they are so flat...great example of hard work paying off though...Awesome awesome car

 

Yep!! Maybe one day i can metal finish a car like COLE FOSTER but for now i'm pretty happy with it ...... Yes it's a lot of work!!!

Thanx KWMPA!!

Ian

 

I feel the same way, Ian has what it takes, and his future as a customizer is bright.
I saw his car just before it left for Kansas, and I was pleasantly surprised, about the work he had done, especially since I saw the car in it's early stages, a year and a half ago, when it was a nightmare, and I wouldnt have touched it with a 10 foot pole.
Ian, you sure proved everyone wrong, and I like it

 

You guys are too nice!!!

I would NEVER by another project in the state of ROT, RUST and MOLESTATION that this chevy was in!! I just didn't know better!! Now i know!!!

It's a very strange feeling but i feel my chevy is stoked and grateful to be pretty again........ Weird i know!!!!

Thanx so much Chris!!

Glad to call you a friend!!

Ian

Thanx man!! I can't wait either!!

 

Jeff has been working his **** off on my car and i greatly appreciate all the HARD WORK !!!! Soooooo much sanding, I would have chased my tail for another year for sure trying to get her straight!!

 

Must be a dark color if he is priming in Black? HAHAHA. This covert color stuff is ********!!! I WANT TO KNOW!! Looks great Ian and Jeff!

 

Congratulations! I love it!
