After dreaming and talking about this for many years a team of dedicated Custom Car enthusiast from Sweden announces the first annual Customs & Kustoms event. The event will be held at Ellös Park on the west-coast of Sweden in the weekend of July 1-2, 2016.

The Event will be held in a park which include separate parking for your custom and large campsite for tent and trailers. There is also a parking for regular cars in case you want to stay at the campsite but do not have a custom to enter the event.

Customs & Kustoms is a meet for you that have an American car made between 1935 and 1964 modified in the manner as custom cars were built in that era.
