Do I detect an acceptance of all things Kustom? Brilliant! I've been into it for more than 20 years, and thought I was the only one who was....

Now that I like. The others are good but that last one (Frankenstude?) is really cool. And yeah Tim I can image pulling up at the kebab wagon in one of those, as long as you don't have to go over speed bumps to get to it  |

I take it from the source of your image that you already know you can get that as a kit from here : www.decorides.com/ |

I'm not really in custom style or Americana for that matter but I can appreciate the amount of time, work and money that must go in to one of those.
absolutley mind blowing

Keefy: Got what's said to be the oldest-surviving right-hand drive '32 Model B Ford. Left the Dagenham factory in March '32 and is totally unrestored... and escaped being rodded a few times in the '70s, so I've been told.
Doesn't stop it getting a chequered firewall and possibly early '40s steel wheels this year!
