Kustoms are modified cars from the 1930s to the early 1960s, done in the customizing styles of that time period. The usage of a ''"K"'' for "Kustom" rather than a "C", is believed to have originated with George Barris. ==Styling== This style generally consists of, but is not limited to, starting with a 2-door coupe and making changes such as: * Lowering the suspension * Chopping down the roof line, (usually chopped more in the rear to give a "raked back" look, B-pillars are also commonly leaned to enhance this look) * Sectioning and/or channeling the body, (removing a section from the center of the body) * Certain pieces of side trim are usually removed or "shaved" to make the car look longer, lower and smoother * Often bits and pieces of trim from other model cars, are cut, spliced and added to give the car a totally new and interesting "line" to lead the eye in the direction that the Kustomizer wishes it to go * Door handles are also "shaved" as well, and electric solenoids or cables are installed * Buttons are installed in hidden locations and used to open the doors * Trunk lids and other pieces of the body can also be altered in this matter. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kustom (cars)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
