Before we go any further, let me take a second to tell you how much I love Bird’s Starliner pictured above. Wow, I’ve heard about it through mutual friends for awhile and seeing it in person was a treat. I’m always more of a kustom guy but I can certainly appreciate a straight black Starliner. That roofline is gorgeous, it’s one of those cars that the designers just got right in the first place.
Okay, back to the task at hand. I was able to get in the door just before opening so that’s why you won’t see many people in these early photos. And as often is the case, I got side tracked talking so some of the rod/kustom family and before I knew it, it was 11am. The show features all kinds of rides and but I can say right now, we need more kustoms at the show next year! I guess I’ll have to step up and put my car in since I’ve said that, who wants to come hang out in Tulsa with me next year?
Corey Conyers of Crown Custom is the man responsible for the build of this beautiful dragster. He is too busy fabricating kool stuff to have time to build a website so instead if you click on the photo it will take you to his page on Facebook. His contact info is on that page. ANYTHING you need fabbed or metal shaped, this man can do. Click the image above to get his contact info!

48 Cars In 48 States : The Great American Road Trip – A 48 state road trip with a stop in each state to photograph a traditionally styled hot rod, kustom or drag vehicle. Daily updates will be posted here on royboyproductions.com so you can see where I’ve gone, who I’ve met, some of what I’ve seen. At the end of the trip I’ll produce a 200 page full color book of the entire adventure. Business Sponsorship Packages here available as well as you can pre-order the book here!
