don't know the make it started out as.
Keep them all please.
All seemed certainly to have been done at a professional level and that first one has some resemblance to the well-known '40 Lincoln "Scrape" custom.
Beautiful paint jobs on the first and last, and the chrome seems carefully applied.

Two gracious customs. To own these two would be like as in car heaven on earth.
The LaSalle and the mystery car at then end are almost mind blowingly beautiful - the paint work is stunning.
Place the rest on the Channel Ferry with the BMW and get them the hell outa here.
I'll take the '55 Buick. The last one looks like a '47 Ford mated with a Packard Hawk.
It and the LaSalle represent a huge $$$$ outlay but the results are questionable IMO.
The penny has finally dropped. I thought how is the Beemer a custom. OK, so its not however the woman in the day glow vest looks to be a customs agent and so winning a place with three true customs.
Subtle humor, eh, Dick?
Set off with a 1950's something Oldsmobile grill - what do you reckon, Jack?
Looks like a "55 Olds bumper/grille to me; not sure what the center of it is comprised of though.
The top might be from an '80s BMW 6 series.
What the he'll did they do to that LeBaron GTC?
+3 Good craftsmanship still doesn't negate rotten taste!
Spent thousands on it only to make it almost worthless. Crusher please!
