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

I was there too with Janne's,mr Lepola and mr.Kutja.An awesome event,too bad the weather was sucky.
Here's a custom lineup:

 

What a kool event! I've been watching the event coverage for years, it never disappoints.

 

Yeah,its a great event indeed.I've planned to go there for many years,but there's always been something else going on.Work,lack of time etc,but i am glad that i was able to go there at this year.
I'll post an event coverage on main board,when i have sorted out my photos.

 

Love David Conrad's 36 that also appears here.

 

^^^^ Hope you can make it to the RIDE this year. Looks like you'll have to paint your Ford green now.

 

Special order... Your 36 looks good red too.

 

Does that mean I have to paint it RED now?

 

Nope, perfect as is.

 

That's because it is Bills El Camino. The pic was taken in Salina, by the area where they were chopping a top at the old park. In the back ground you can see the Chevy that was chopped the fist year it was held in Salina.

 

Tha Buick is off the chart!!!

 

Lol. I know that's Hines' El Camino. I went and got the photos off Rik's site.
I was saying that '59 Impala Roger posted sure looks like Bill's El Camino.

 

I see the similarities now. Sorry, that Packard derailed my train of thought.

 

liked this one too on the OSW, maybe someone has an interior shot of this one, it was made with a central instrument from what i think was a 60s Chrysler Astradome,

That Winfield built '57 was black/gold the first time around.

 

Can somebody tell me whats used here ? White sand ? salt ?
Or what they normally used in the 50 - 60's..

 

Probably salt, the kind you'd buy for a water softener. That's used a lot.

 

The Aztec, The Hirohata Merc - driving them cross country back in the day was apparently not that unusual:





You can read the Hirohata entire story HERE.

 

My man - thanks for your help

 

They forgot too mention it was owned by the MR ED actor and no not the horse [emoji206]

I like how the scoop is extended to the bottom of the car. It has a lot of Kool modifications .

 

And I like how the quarter panel and the rear bumper blend together. Tasty!

 

Kenny would be glad you like his car (54 Plymouth). He is building it with some of my guidance, and has become a very talented metal shaper, and welder. Has a good eye for proportion and modifications.

 

Wright, Stevens and Lowey customize a 1941 Lincoln Continental. Hopefully straycatcustoms will come to the rescue and post the photos.

Here you go.
Frank Lloyd Wright


Brooks Stevens


Raymond Loewy

 

I studied and studied that car at Indy this year. I don't consider '54 Plymouths particularly pretty cars to start with and would never pick on to build as I lack the vision to turn it into something. Kenny clearly is building something special and I applaud his efforts and your guidance.....it's going to be a great car with lots of sneaky, subtle touches. I look forward to seeing more.

 

Here's a few more from the GG's event in Puyallup, Washington...this is a '41 Ford...


And a Mercury...


This '56 was reportedly built in the '60's. The owner's kids rebuilt the car after it had set for many years and presented it to their Dad...
Of course, we have to post a Mercury for Mick...
