R.I.P Jae Bueno

Woke up this morning to some real sad news. Jae Bueno lost his battle with CANCER. He was an amazing photographer from cars to clothes to landscapes to whatever was in front of his camera he made it into art. His pictures graced countless magazines and art galleries showing the talents he possessed. He will be missed by many and he is in a lot of peoples prayers today. If you've ever seen his work take some time to reflect and say a prayer. R.I.P Jae you will live on forever in our hearts and in our thoughts. FUCK CANCER

The Essentials of a Build

 The notch  was done , Bobby & Ben were getting the rear axle ready for install when I went by shop
 Some of the parts in the 2 link kit
 More 2 link shots
The boys were adjusting axle placement for the 2 link set up and were pretty busy when I stopped by. Was hoping to see car on the ground but Bobby said he had to work on another project so this one was put on hold for a couple of days. Car should be on ground soon and then its air ride system install time. As always I will keep you updated-- Stay Tuned Kids

West Coast Kustoms 2013

 Simple patterned roof made this car stand out in a sea of shiny cars
 never been a fan of Brown paint jobs, but this Rivi wore it well
 Cant get enough of this car, the paint was flawless and reminded me of being a kid at car shows
Ive seen this car in most of its stages of kustomizing. From lowered in primer to metal work being done to finished in time for WCK. Amazing work and it won at WCK 2013. Well Sunday was relaxing at the show, walked around had a few conversations with some old friends and just enjoyed the last day gathering ideas for the build. I'm realizing that it is going to take a lot to get to where I want my car to be, until then as always  I will drive it till the wheels come off

West Coast Kustoms 2013

 The panel paint on this car had to be seen
 Simple touches made this car a winner
 Love this little Ranchero, like looking into the past
This is my favorite right now, the chop the stance and especially the grill make this car stand out. Saturday at WCK 2013 was amazing and special for me this year. My son got up and rolled with me to the show and we spent some quality time together enjoying the show and checking out cars. The car bug has bitten him and now he wants his own Kustom---- Start saving son

West Coast Kustoms 2013

 Cesar Rosas' car re worked with a new chop, grill and paint. Very kool ride
 Friday Hot Rods, love that yellow coupe
 Parking lot full before cruise, and this was at 2 in the afternoon
 Chop It Kustoms creation, pictures do not capture this car, it has to be seen to be believed
Friday afternoon and evening of cruise was a blast again. Cars rolling on Broadway all day, people hanging out reserving their spot for the cruise you could feel the excitement in the air. Saw a lot of old friends and new ones and some kool rides. Seems like every year the quality goes up and the paints get shinier. The weekend was off to a great start
