Full Custom Ian - Invidious

Full Custom Ian

Full Custom Ian is the official YouTube channel of Ian Roussel, master metal fabricator, custom car builder, and the star of Full Custom Garage. This channel is dedicated to true custom car builds, hand-built fabrication, and one-off automotive projects created entirely from scratch—without relying on bolt-on parts, CAD design, or modern shortcuts. With over 20 years of experience in custom car fabrication, Ian Roussel is known for building hot rods, rat rods, classic cars, and fully custom vehicles that many consider impossible. His work focuses on visualization, problem-solving, and old-school craftsmanship, transforming raw metal, scrap materials, and unconventional parts into fully functional custom cars. Influenced by legendary builders such as Gene Winfield, Ed “Big Daddy” Roth, and George Barris, Ian carries forward the tradition of traditional custom cars and hot rod culture.
