If there is another name for the rubber strap with hooks, I haven't heard of it yet
Taking kustom in a new direction... it's sorta 60's car show scene over the top, but primer and unconventional mods

One of my favorite instrument clusters, the other is also a Plymouth: https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgX7z_sU-wY243T3tL4bFw9FM9ua0TJTk-AwPmBH-Dg-PCApwIwOKhVYMFT8QCZDTdGdb3DQYfMaKskashtuQvuimjitFtN-x5yDSGdZiIw_HXQWSy6JqXcMDmwd4rVb5e1rUq2TjyZSSXt/s1600/DSCN3685.JPG

Cool steering wheel (it says Studebaker on the center button), cool shifter knob, nice grill under the gauges... this is a well thought out and finished look!

What a cool custom, I've never seen anyone make a steering wheel out of a rim! Great key, and, have you ever seen a B&M shifter on a firewall?

Speedometer I've never come across before, a windspeed indicator mounted to the hood trim on a 40's Chevrolet

I bet it works as a bug deflector like the green one I photographed as well as a speedometer
Evans Garage... what a cool looking place (not open to the public)

Scruffy went to the Model T museum and photographed the 1915 Lamsteed Camper truck

Check out this cool steering wheel that unclamps and moves out of the way so people could stretch out and sleep, see a lot of cool stuff on Scruffy's blog, http://www.suede-and-chrome.com/2010/08/model-t-museum-post-2.html
1915 Lamsteed Kampkar - an early recreational vehicle manufactured by Anheuser-Busch. The vehicles were mounted on a Model T Ford chassis and sold for $535.

Some cool rat rods, from the dedicated Tumbler... Rat Rods Rule!

Doesn't that make you smile?
Must be owned by a diver, or a really innovative customizer
What better way to show pedestrians where the bus stop is? 
See a gallery of the above South carolina prison bus rat rod at John's: http://oleragtop.blogspot.com/2009/11/yeah-turkey-rod-run-is-coming-this.html
The above green car... looks like a new idea in rat rods, take a newer than 1960 vehicle and made a rat rod from it by getting rid of all the body work forward of the firewall. This one looks like a Buick, but I can't recall the model
I don't think I've ever seen a rod quite like this, unless you count the early dragsters from the 50's that were using a long wheel base chassis to set back the body for weight transfer to aid traction. 
Wow. I think I posted a photo of this one before, I think it's a Seagrave roadster ... how cool are the various cans to the back of the gas tank?!
