Custom Car Revival

The Custom Car Revival celebrates customized American cars of the 1940’s to the 1960’s.  Any re-designing must also represent 'the way they did it back then'. The event’s profits benefit local charities in Indianapolis. You will see a wide variety of backgrounds, as the event took place in multiple locations. This was the event's fifth year.
