Check out the smooth fadeaway on Louie Bettancourt's Stylish 1949 Merc. This is the Barris version after it was re-done. It was previoulsy built by Gil Ayala and painted in Lime Gold. One of the old books I have labels it as a 1950 but I believe it's a 1949.
Great weather and hundreads of nice cars made the days event a success. The good food and live music also helped it out a bit. More photos coming soon...
My name is Mark Garza and I collect photos, old and new, of Traditional Kustoms and Hot Rods. I have been involved with Hot Rodding since I was just a young kid. It was first through my Uncle’s stories of his old times and also his little page magazines that I now collect. At age twelve I found my first car, it was a '55 Plymouth which I still have today. At age sixteen I was brought into the Lowrds car club in Fresno California. That’s when my love for Kustoms really began.
Now, along with my Dad and Brother, we build Kustoms & Hot Rods, mostly for hobby but also for sale. My Dad is Arnold Garza, an awesome metal man who has built some great Kustoms over the years. We are all members of Headhunters Kustom Kars.
This blog is dedicated to showing some of the best Kustoms and Hot Rods of past and present and is also an avenue for buying, selling and trading old, rare and unique Kustom & Hot Rod cars and parts.
Enjoy the site.
