The little cement block building is still there today. You would never guess that is where Kustom started making headers. They moved to Standish Michigan to a real manufacturing facility. The block building was behind Thurmon Stanley's Sunoco station. The local drag racers hung out there. On Sunday mornings, they would all meet there before the drags at Lapeer or Ubly. I can remember a lot of the cars and their names that were lettered on them. They all treated me pretty good. I was the paperboy.
