 Sunday started with more rain, meaning my shoot of the Pacifica for a magazine feature was dead in the water so to speak.

Royboy's Weekend Update!

On Thursday this week I announced that I'll be giving an award away at the 2013 KKOA Leadsled Spectacular. Included in that announcement was the initial list of sponsors that are kind enough to add to the prize pack that will accompany the award.

Coming up at this year's KKOA Leadsled Spectacular...

Chad Kolman's stunning 47 Buick at the 2012 Leadsled Spectacular, this ride won the coveted 777 Award last year. 

Mercury Kustoms

One of the most iconic kustom platforms has been the 49-51 Mercury since long before I was born.  The car just lends itself to a chopped top, a low stance and some skirts. While these are not required for a kool Merc they are seen on more Mercs today than not.

Car Feature: Krobe's 30 Model A Coupe

At the 2011 KKOA Leadsled Spectacular I was approached by my friend Mickey of Stray Kat Kustoms car shows with some good news. Our mutual friend and fellow Stray Kat, Krobe had been asked to do a feature of his beautiful 30 Model A Ford for Car Kulture Deluxe. Mickey and Krobe had been kind enough to mention to Alan Mayes of CKD that they knew a photographer at the show that could handle photographing the car, lucky for me that was me!

Here are some of the photos from that shoot for the Issue #49 from Dec. 2011 of Car Kulture Deluxe. And a few from car shows where Krobe's brought the ride.
