BO HUFF IS A "CULT" CUSTOMIZER IF THERE EVER WAS ONE ! Bo is based in Sunnyside, Utah, and from his compound there (which also includes his Museum) cranks out some of the most unique & beautiful creations that you'll ever see. He's become known worldwide as one of THE best in the business.
Bo & I spent a lot of time together at the 29th Annual KKOA Lead Sled Spectacular in Salina, Kansas, and became friends in the process. He's a hard worker that's driven to perfection in the Rods & Customs he puts together, and one of his earlier cars has always stuck out in my mind: it's a '55 Chevy that Bo built back in 2003 that was a clone of Sam Barris' car originally built for Sam's wife in 1957.
It turns out that Bo always admired that Chevy as a kid, kept that fire glowing as an adult, and, when a customer named Nick Phillips approached him about building a custom, Bo had just the car in mind that he wanted to put together ! And, when it was finished it won at the GNRS in 2004, and was featured in Custom Rodder, Street Rodder, Super Chevy, and, Car Kulture DeLuxe.
Listen to Bo's story, look at the pictures on this page to see the remarkable beauty of the this convertible that started life as a two door sedan, and you'll realize that Bo Huff has truly turned building custom cars into an "art form" all his own. JK
From any angle this is one of the most beautiful customs you will EVER see !
"The King Of The Kustomizers", George Barris, really approved Bo's version of his brother's car and even signed the dash !
