One of the all time great Customs from the '50's and '60s. Truly a work of art!

I remember when this was new. Had a 1/25th model of it. Based on a Ford 'B' truck as I recall.
They did serious custom work in those days. Guys like Barris and Jeffries didn't settle for mere slick paint and big chrome wheels.

i know that he is a legend and he did this since he was how old was he when he started,14?,he was one of my role models alongside Colin McRae,Big Daddy Ed Roth and Michelle Mouton when i was a kid and to meet the Kustom King himself,no wonder it's his favorite,it's one of the greatest Customs ever made!!!well check out my gallery and tell me what do you think my friend.
