Hey guys I just recently found out that I have two Facebook's. One is under Carter Kustom. And the other one is under Steve Carter. It seems like most of the posts and photos wind up on Facebook Steve Carter so if you don't see any post on Carter custom go to Steve Carter Facebook and they'll probably be more photos of car work stuff you have.

I know that I don't post very often. I'm old school guy that forgets to even carry my phone. Here's a few photos of a project that I like to call flipping the bird. I will Duff with a 1955 shea Thunderbird in a Trade. It was missing a lot of parts. If you wanna know the history of the 55 shea Thunderbird all you have to do is Google shea Thunderbird.

Don't worry about titling And registering this car Because they just passed a law in Tennessee that allows you to title a kit car by the body which means this is a imitation 55 Thunderbird it will be titled as a 55 Thunderbird. Real easy to do anyway here it is
