Hey there everyone :D My club is having a theme next year that is Customs. My buddy Marty on here has a really cool one I can think of and I came up with an idea for a Bike. Really, over all I draw a blank on other ideas. In Your opinions are you thinking custom grills,headlights, frenched antennas, and fender skirts? Or maybe just custom paint? I'd like a little eye candy for ideas and a way for you all to show off! Thanks for reading ;)

I'm sure that you'll get much better cars than this, but I generally build stock or dirt track racers. I thought it might be kind of fun to build a custom from the box. This is a 65 Buick Riviera that i built a few years ago. I've never been able to build directly from the box, so this did end up with a couple of things from the parts bins.

I like them all but these really stand out as I am a bike fan and the Pickup based on a sedan is wicked cool. The others are really cool body mods!

Thank you everyone that has responded! You guys are really creative from the Mitsu Truck to the smooth T-bird, Greg that green one is awesome. All you guys rock! This one here is out of my league but I thought you might enjoy this 55 Bel-Air/96 Caprice/Impala SS mix up. I found this one today at a car show. DSC06033.jpgDSC06034.jpgDSC06032.jpgDSC06031.jpg
