an Roussel is a passionate VW enthusiast, artist, hot rod builder, and a true jack-of-all-trades. If something stays still long enough, Ian will find a way to transform it into something extraordinary—often with a creative nod to hot rods.
Fans of the show Full Custom Garage will recognize Ian as the master builder behind some of the wildest custom car creations out there. Known for his unorthodox approach, Ian doesn’t follow traditional rules. Instead, he uses his imagination and resourcefulness to turn everyday, overlooked materials into unique automotive masterpieces.
In our conversation, we explored what inspired Ian to move to the West Coast, his first impressions upon arriving, and the driving forces behind some of his most memorable builds. Now that Full Custom Garage has ended, Ian continues to share his artistry on his YouTube channel, Full Custom Ian.
As a VW enthusiast through and through—and a creative soul who builds without fear of judgment—Ian deserves the support of our community.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
