Gene is one of the ORIGINAL Kustom fabricators. I had the pleasure of meeting him at numerous auto shows like Good Guys Pleasanton, SEMA and Turlock. He purchased many parts from me. He invited me to his old shop in Modesto where he pinstriped my 1967 GTO in 30 minutes.. Thank you Gene!!
I have always wanted to go there. Gene is from where I am in Modesto California ,my grandpa used to do some welding on frames for Gene when he first started out of a chicken coop in modesto,ca. Long Live Gene Winfield!!!!!! thank you Chad for letting us see a place few will ever see😁😁✌
Hey Chad ,thx for all your cool weird builds and taking the time to do these vids, I met Gene about 10 yrs ago and I swear he is looking younger everytime. And so down to earth too, still my most favorite car guy , thx and I wish you all the best !
I did meet him in Graz , Austria 2018. Its not possible to think he was over 90 then. I did feel like an old man beside him. And so nice to talk to, so kind. it was a dream i had for many many years to meet him.
Gene drove my dads 1940 chopped and channeled rat rod around here in New Zealand back in 2007........hope he is well........god bless the King of custom :]
Gene Winfield along with George Barris ,Starbird, ETC. are all Masters and they also had Mastered The Art of Tastefulness ,Creativeness and Style to the Eyes , Pleasing to look at, not just some custom cars that somebody puked up.
Hi mate that was fantastic of you to show us his place iam in Australia and your car are really special you should be Very proud of your work all I can say is keep up the good work look after your friends and family and don't forget to have a brake once in a while ..
