If the Torino wins... there'll be no livin' with Rob. OMG! :twak: :rolleyes:

Better start preparing for it now GW:lmao: This thread alone has double digit "that Torino is it" quotes to be used for eternity.:mock:

Vegas69 07-13-2013 12:29 PM

I agree, the winner is apparent. :bang: :lol:

Matt@BOS 07-13-2013 03:08 PM

Haha, Rob will probably be upset that everyone will think the Rad Rides/Poteet creation is what all Torinos look like, except for a few fancy added touches...

JayR 07-13-2013 03:30 PM

Hot off the presses but no real surprise, Poteet's Torino is your 2013 SMOY. Well deserved incredible car built by an incredible team

Congrats to Poteet/Rad Rides - that's a combination that's having a huge impact on the hobby/industry.

I still may not make it this year, but am glad I got to follow this build in pics, and see the car in bare metal last year. As slick as they look, the final finishes hide a lot of the insanity that it takes to get there. Glad to see it was appreciated. That car really is incredible; details in the details kind of thing...
:king:

I agree, I think the Torino is the winner. It's definately something different than the norm 69, 1st gens, Nova's, etc. After the Torino wins....(enters Rob)

We ended up top 5 with ENCORE!!!! There's nothing better than being in the top 5 with two ridler builders (Greening auto with 2 cars and rad rides with one) and the Goolsby boys!!! It's been a great weekend and there were several very nice cars that didn't make the top 5 that easily could have!! Oh and that Torino wow that's a car that anybody would be proud to get beat by!!!!! Ill post up plenty of pics soon!!

GOOD FOR YOU!!! And I agree --- just being picked at all would be something special.... and ENCORE deserved a pick. Congratulations!

Every once and a while someone from the left coasts makes the trek. We were there last year with "Tenacity" and were honored to make top 5. It was a great experience.

sure would hate to have to be a judge and pick top 5 because there were so many nice cars,congrats to top 5 for being picked and I sure respect the workmanship and quality in all these cars,also nobody tell Rob but the Torino probally deserved SMOY award but it would have been hard to judge with so much competition

If you guys didn't see it Paul Van Nus' Chevy II won the Muscle Machine of the year finalist award at Columbus. He is competing in the Popular Hotrodding shoot out today. I'm sure is can add some more details later.

Congrats on the top 5. I don't know how the voting works but my guess is that you were a close 2nd. Now lets see some detailed pics of that bad boy!

That's awesome. I knew it looked familiar.

I love that car.
