What is Custom Car?
A custom car is a passenger vehicle that has been either substantially altered to improve its performance, often by altering or replacing the engine and transmission; made into a personal “styling” statement, using paintwork and aftermarket accessories to make the car look unlike any car as delivered from the factory; or some combination of both.
