Kustom Spotlight: Bo Huff’s ’36 Ford Humpback “Corene,” Detail Crazy

The first time we caught wind of Bo’s ’36 Humpback was during this year’s Viva Las Vegas Rockabilly Weekend. Again, we saw it at the 2014 Ink-N-Iron. There’s definitely a lot going on with this Ford and Bo’s brand of kustom is completely all his own. While scanning the internet for some information on his ’36 we stumbled on an audio interview that had been done on www.legends.thewwbc.net. Be sure to check out that awesome segment here.

“I always liked ’36 Ford 3-window coupes…but, I also owned a 2-door ’36 sedan humpback…they’re always building street rods out of them, but not taildragger style like what this is,” Bo told Johnny during the interview.

1149381_544281168959410_282307767_oAn S10 frame holds the ’36 up and it’s been stepped to allow the car to sit nice and low. 1940 Pontiac shovel bumpers were swapped in the front and rear. Old-school louvres give the car a balance between luxury and aggressive.

Bo took old ripple lake pipes and capped them off. You’ll see them running out of the fenders. Bo told Johnny that he never usually puts antennas on his cars, but with this car he definitely wanted to with two mounted by cowl hold downs.

As an homage to old school kustom styling from back in the mid-50s Bo flipped the door handles around. Rear quarter seals were also filled. The car was painted snowflake white with a contrasting 1950 GMC Hollywood beige on the grille and dash.

There’s so many more gorgeous details and it’s builds like this that make Bo one of the culture’s hardest working individuals and living legends! Be sure to check out Jonhhy King’s segment with Bo and his ’36 Humpback in the link above.1265566_627451480642378_132840528_o
