Let Brizios suggest some of the styling thats why you went there. Troy at Rad Rides put them on a short list as one of the few builders he would have build a car for him, That says something. On a side note...Kelsey Hayes wires with dirt track tires 16s an 18s :lol: :lol: :lol:



If truth be known - we've been working for months on the design -- I showed photos of cars I liked -- then he started with the details.... The man knows his stuff... and I'm just going to let him have his way with it... but I told him NO GOLD and NO WIDE WHITES... :thumbsup:

Yes -- Okay now I'm trackin'


Yes the '62 got sold -- because the deeper I got into it - the more I realized it just wasn't a car I wanted to build --- even though it is going to be a bad azz bubbler....


I'm a hot rodder.... and the '33 is "me".


:cheers:

That's the politically correct way of saying he couldn't see over the dash in the '62. :D

Or reach across to open the passenger door...


It does have moveable pedals (out of a late model Ford truck) and the seats are adjustable about 18" front to back...

I opened the trunk and fell in trying to reach the bottom. That was the end point.

Funny- I can totally relate to that. I love PT cars, muscle cars, cutting edge tech gear and the like but my heart belongs to my hot rod. Sometimes I just walk out to the garage, look at my '29, say "yep" and walk right back inside. On a summer night blasting down the freeway, there's just nothing like looking out and seeing that little front wheel hanging off a straight axle. Way too much fun.

EGG ZAKERTLY!!


I've owned everything -- and if I haven't owned it - I've worked on it or built it... and I love hi tech -- and I love corner carvers (own one!) and all that.... but give me a nice summer afternoon -- and I'll choose the hot rod every time. Until you've owned one -- you just can't "relate". :thumbsup: :cheers: :woot:

I have yet to actually get my little offbeat hot rod on the road but somehow I relate to this. :yes: I just hope I feel like that when I finally get it out of the shop and into the sunshine... :cool: Until then, simply seeing it in the shop definitely fills the need better any of my previous projects. :hail:

Actually watching Greg work through the issues, and finally give his impressions of driving the 32, helped me remember why I started building mine and keep pushing through when I was almost burned out and ready to throw in the towel... :thumbsup: :cheers:
