New and love customs

Hi and hope a custom guy will fit into this site. When I figure things out I will post pics and my website.
I have a 68 that was customized around 1980. I've repainted but not alot else and have had it since 02. Its a handful with the BB but even though I'm an old guy I still love old hot rods

John :)

John I love that look! Custom is great. Too many sites where the masses :thumbsdown: anything other than stock:rolleyes:

I personally prefer the individual touches that make each one unique. I can also appreciate a fully detailed stocker as well as a NCRS resto. Aw hell! I just like vettes, period!:rofl1: :welcome: aboard my friend:wavey:

Thanks Shadow for welcome and words

When I go to shows I draw a crowd but its surely a love/hate with customs. I bought it to drive (FAST) and like to be different than everybody else. This custom was done in 1980 and represents how things were done then. Even the mags are from then.

Alot of guys restore old vettes to original. Well I restored a custom to its original. The flares, running boards, mako nose and rear were all hand laid and are one of a kind.

Best of all is the guy I got it from in Detroit dropped a 454 in that was intended for drag racing use, so its a frikkin rocket too! We found this was the #50 to come off the line in 1968!

John :)
