I was referring to the other two sections "traditional hot rods" and "traditional customs"... a lot of modified cars there.. I am not looking for that stuff, I prefer a basically stock vehicle, with minor upgrades.. which is why I love the Barn!  |
Guys like Barris, Hines, Roth, Jeffries, and watsons paint (to name a small group) did a lot of interesting stuff in the 50's-60's with customs. I like a well done custom just as much as a hotrod.

Barris did make a lot of tv/movie clown cars, Munsters drag car. To me the others never did that.
Is there some confusion between period correct and stock restoration going on here. Ya maybe.
