We are extremely proud to present our photos of these two amazing custom street rods. Both of these cars have been just recently finished by Ida Automotive in Morganville, NJ. Rob Ida and his dad Bob have been building some of the most innovative, wild, immaculate, ultra-custom cars for decades - and both of these cars represent their best efforts. The 33’ Willys “Roaster” was completely built from scratch. Starting with a pile of sheet metal and some billet stock the artists at Rob Ida Concepts sculpted this masterpiece which features a hand formed body and fenders, removable top, one-off wheels with integrated custom brakes, tilt-away steering column, and a blown 600HP Cadillac NorthStar (which is notable because it, along with the tires, are the only things “store bought” on this car). There are truly too many things to list about this car and words don’t do it justice anyway, so check out the pics here.



This 37’ Chevy Coupe called “Black Opal” is a classy, low slung baggin, twin-turbo sportin’, custom dub rollin’ stunner that is bringin’ sexy back to street rodding in a big way! And I think our model friend Heather Childs helps with the “sexy” part for sure. But seriously, I love seeing street rods built by relatively young guys like Rob using modern components, with contemporary influences. Be sure to notice the sculpted fender accents, hand formed brass trim, one-off wheels, headlight and taillight treatments, motor through the hood, custom dash with billet gauge cluster, etc. Best thing you can do is check out these pics yourself here.
