A pure-blooded celebration of traditional customs, this issue digs deep into the lineage, craftsmanship, and understated flash that define the mid-century style. It opens with “Bluebarry,” a beautifully worked ’46 Ford that sets the tone with smooth lines and period-perfect detailing. A Wartime Roadtrip follows, blending nostalgia, history, and long-haul Americana.
The Full Custom Showroom segment highlights standout builds with meticulous era-correct touches, while “Tangerine,” a radiant ’51 Ford, becomes the issue’s showstopper. Coverage of the 2019 Custom Car Revival captures the scene’s purest gathering of traditionalists, and “Inspired by Watson” closes the issue with a ’56 Chevy drenched in honorific Larry Watson flair—panel paint, style, and West Coast attitude. A tightly curated, detail-obsessed volume for serious custom enthusiasts.
