I know a guy who used to do resoration and used to get a lot of custom cars in for paintwork (some after the DIY respray went wrong) and he's told me some right stories about custom cars.

One of my favourites being the mkIII escort van with a wrap over spoiler, made from cardboard and bodyfiller :lol:
