    GM, Klass of '61.

    I'm not fond of the Corvette grille here, but this is one beautiful Kustom '61 Chevy.
    I wonder why you don't see more of these?

    I never tire of these Coup DeVilles...the simpler, the better.
    Stance is everything!

    Note that the grill letters now read "Some Doll".

    That's Harold Olsen's old Buick. Was good to see it again.

    This isn't the greatest shot, but it's even more impressive in person. Here it is at Jalopyrama in Oct 2016.

    What is going on right above the number plate on the front bumper of that delicious 53 Buick? Is that a scoop or what?

    I believe what you're seeing is the center of the stock Riviera bumper/grille bar.

    BTW, the Dagmars are 1955 Caddy. Front fenders are flared.

    Probably one of the better uses/placements I've seen for '55 Caddy Dagmars...they look natural there...

    Big Daddy's mild customs...

    Don Garlits swapped the rear window of his '39 Ford (seen here in 1955), so his wife could see to drive.
    (Inverted 1940 Olds?)

    He followed suit with his '40 Convertible (with Caddy mini-fins).
    This thing's got flame-throwers!
