The Kustom Work, or actual the "Kustom Shop" is where I've been able to restore classics back to their original "state of being" or modify the crap out of something, just cause "cool" was the attempt, or to "go faster" was the need. I've been in the auto work and mod since 1994 by Publishing "Rod n'Racing Magazine" and then up till 09 publishing "the Southwest Motor Enthusiast News". I work now making more efficient use of natural and man made resources and... learning as much as I can!

The Boss left...
With an awesome day of warm weather we hadn't had in quite awhile, made for a great day to send home the Boss. Pablo, as I call him, now gets the pleasure of getting to install all the components in order to get it on the race track by June or July. All his parts and ducks are in order for complete assembly. Moving the beast on casters was a b*$%h. Hence it took five of us to get it to roll correctly on to the trailer. One thing for sure is the color really pops in the sunlight. When I first bought the paint and looked in the can I didn't have much hope for "pretty" in its future but after looking at it on the car and a few times on my hands, hmm, I was quite impressed. As were the many who popped up the proverbial thumbs up while in transit to it's assembly destination. I miss those days driving my muscle cars and passing many a "thumbs up" along the way. Paul will sure to have his share of the vertical apposing digit passed his direction from the delight of passer bys. This car will be street driven as well as taken to the road course tracks within the neighboring states for sure. I look forward to seeing it with wheels on! Click on photos to enlarge!
