Ray Schuler, from Elkhart, Indiana, bought this 1931 Ford Model A Roadster in 1950 for $15.00. He was only 15 years old, so he had no drivers license yet. His friend, Pete Fullmer, had to drive him around in the car. Pete and Ray are now in their seventies, and are still old car nuts. They still hang out together, going to car shows and cruise-ins, etc. together. Click it on

In the 1950s and 60s, one of the most famous auto customizers was George Barris. Working out of his shop in California, George Barris built many custom cars for the stars and for movie and TV shows. The AMX 400 was one of the many cars customized and made famous by Barris Kustoms.About ten years of the AMX 400s history is unsure, but in 2001 it surfaced again and was found by it's current owner, Mike Geary. Mike negotiated with it's owner at that time and eventually was able to come to terms and make the purchase. The story and pictures are from Mike Geary on the Restoration of the AMX400.
