My Blown 57 chevy gets some upgrades
On this episode I finally handle some upgrades thats been on the back burner for quite some time. I fit the chrome reverse wheels over the giant Wilwood brakes because I love the look of a 70's hot rod. Unfortunately the Cragars that were on it didn't fit right so I had to pull them off. I also install a recovered original bench seat thats been sitting in my bedroom for a year. Mike Cotten and myself will be attending Battle in Bama May 30th-June 1st. If you're in the area come hang out.

It sat for several years until Mike Cotten and myself got our hands on it for an episode of Faster with Newbern and Cotten. We body swapped it onto a 1987 s1...

On this episode I finally finish a project truck that has been in my shop for a decade. My buddy Kerry, dropped his 1949 ford F1 off with me 10 years ago to get it wired. Well, it kind of spiraled out of control and turned into a complete build. @KeyesKustoms #fordf1 #shoptruck #patina #1949ford

On this Episode my friend Wesley Keyes brings a load of 55 Chevys to Georgia. I traded him one of these 55's a year ago and he decided to let it go and offered it to me first. I ended up trading him my 1992 GMC Top Kick for my 55, a parts car and some other parts he had been collecting. Since I bought the C50 I completely lost interest in the Top Kick. It doesn't leave without a fight though. T...
