Way up firm and high

Hey Greg I have a couple questions in regard to dealing with Brizio's.

Was there a waiting period before he could get you car in the shop? With such amazing high quality work and that reputation I would think he would have a waiting list.

Any talk of a time period for the build? What are the expectations?

If you want an awesome looking and styled hot rod, as well as a great driver then there isn't much better a choice than Roy. Plain and simple I am jealous! Nice choice in a car and style.

Per Lat-g rules there must be a car pic every fortnight

Lincoln Navigator drivetrain, notice the bulge at the front of the louvers to clear the heads.

The car gets driven on long-hauls.

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:



Now we're talkin'!!!!

Glenn ---

Oh hell yes there's a waiting list!! I gave him a deposit to HOLD A SPACE last JUNE -- right after the L A Roadsters show... at that point he ordered a body -- then we started talking and looking at pics etc -- and when we had a style and look -- he ordered just the frame rails....

It got on the frame table a week ago....


It will be ready for the L A Roadsters show ----- JUNE 2014.

Not as bad as I would have thought on either end of that deal. Of course that time will feel like it's taking forever. And, I expect this thread will be up in the hundreds of pages by then. Good luck with the car!

His shop is very methodical -- it's a real business and is run like one. He's there to crank out killer cars AND make money doing it. It's like a swiss watch. The shop is chalk a block full of cars -- most repeat customers just building "another Brizio" -- I'm the "newb". But he treats you with the utmost respect - listens to you - guides when needed - and it's just an absolute pleasure to do business with. You know you're paying top dollar and you don't care - 'cause you know you'll get top quality.

Great post Greg, even the Russian judge gave you 5 'Stielows'. :unibrow:

I saw a Brizio's client list once and was really impressed with the players on it. Player's not posers.
