George Barris, the legendary custom car builder, would have celebrated his 100th birthday in 2025, making it the perfect occasion for a grand tribute. This celebration was aptly held during the 75th edition of the Grand National Roadster Show at the Fairplex in Pomona, California. 

Montana Wilson shares her transformative journey from discovering moto culture to becoming a skilled pinstriper and chopper builder. Inspired by her stepfather, "Chicken," a rat rod and bike enthusiast, Wilson dove into the world of pinstriping, learning the craft through persistence and a supportive community. Her breakthrough came when she painted a helmet for a family friend, solidifying her talent and sparking the creation of Angel Claw Studio.

Nub’s journey into kustom kulture began far from the typical paths of backyard builders and renowned artists. Inspired by cartoonists like Jack Davis and Don Martin, Nub initially sought a career as a cartoonist before discovering his passion for sign painting. After experimenting with airbrushing and custom paint, Nub transitioned from sign work to kustom paint, carving out a niche in the Hudson Valley.
