PRE 1952 CUSTOM CAR SHOW
Customs by the Sea is a traditional custom car show presented in cooperation with the Oilers car club, during the Race of Gentlemen, the Customs by the Sea is a celebration of the early custom car.
PRE-REGISTERED CUSTOMS ONLY
The rules are simple. Customs by the Sea is open for pre 1952 custom cars, restyled in a pre 1952 style. No parts newer than 1952. We have a limited number of spaces available so you have to pre-register if you want to be a part of the gathering. If you want to register your vehicle for the show, visit the Customs by the Sea website.
SCHEDULE
- The 3rd annual Customs by the Sea – East will be held June 4-5, 2016 in Wildwood, New Jersey.
- The 1st Customs by the Sea West be held October 14-15, 2016 in Pismo, California.
Visit www.theraceofgentlemen.com for more information about the race, full schedule, driving directions and more.
The show organizers are looking for any traditional custom cars that use visible parts up to 1952. The rules are strict, and no exceptions are made to make sure this will be an event that looks and feels like it could have been held in 1952. We at the Custom Car Chronicle are really looking forward to see this show take place in California, the place where it all begun. Hopefully the show will feature many new period styled as well as original vintage restored and non restored Customs.

Great to see this show expanding but it kind of throws a monkey wrench into my plans.
My custom was pre – registered for the Jersey show that was originally planned for Oct. I don’t think that I will have it done by June though.
Maybe a road trip to the west coast is in order…

Why 1952 as a cut-off year for styling? There are a lot of great ideas that came about as late as 1954 that would still carry the early ’50s kustom look…1955 and later is when things really shifted toward paint jobs and different restyling ideas. It’s wonderful to see the show reach the west coast and I am excited to see what Sondre and Olav have in store…but perhaps opening the horizons to a little bit later than 1952 would allow for more great cars.
gause that leaves a lot of us out and i mean lots of us, but its ok no problem they do there thing we do ours,
