Oh we're hiding that block of plastic…. LOL


Only taste of LS motor anyone will get will be out the exhaust.

Greg, you've made some great choices on this car. Killer stance, great wheel choice, the right windshield, right colors, etc etc. It's gonna be a great car. Those SF boys sure build great cars down there.

Normally I don't pay much attention to these type of builds... but I just love the look of this car... very cool!

Should look even cooler when you get the hood on... nice work Greg.

:cheers:

Thanks Dale! I think we got the "attitude" part just about right. Doing a traditional - but with attitude can be hard. And given that I'm building it for Gwen -- I couldn't go too far with anything. Gawd I hope she hates it.

It's wheelbase is about your track width - but hey! Who's counting.*

I think that's the shortest response you've ever given.:mock:


On a side note: The cars stance,color,and interior are SPOT on the :G-Dub:

Can't wait to SIT in it at the G.N.R.S.

This is the quintessential "Ultimate Drivers Hot Rod in the UNIVERSE!!!!"

1. Starting off with the most beautiful sexy hot rod body (IMHO) ever built.... 33 Ford roadster.
2. Built by the infamous hot rod builder Brizio. It doesn't get any better!
3. Interior done by non other than Sid Chavers. Need say no more....
4. Wrapped in a classy and timeless theme that will never date or go out of style
5. An LS platform offering tremendous reliability in a light weight package..
6. With power window, retractable top, AC, etc.... affording you the ability to drive in comfort regardless of the weather.
A. Sunny day.....top down and looks like a roadster
B. Cold outside.... Top up and heater on
C. Raining..... Top and windows up and AC or heat on

It doesn't get any better then this. G you knock this one out of the proverbial UNIVERSE and are now in another stratosphere!

In fact...... I can't imaging any possible reason you would want to drive the 32 when this one is done. Perhaps time to send it down the road and make room in your stable for something else......... MULE?

Charlie, I will collect the ten bucks later, LOL.

G look forward to seeing it at GNRS. Beautiful job Bud. :thumbsup:

Thanks Ken!


I might just have to drive it back to Columbus next year!!


Power Tour being in May(?) Gwen won't have received it yet - otherwise that would be the perfect "outing".

INTMD8 12-22-2013 11:06 AM

Blue/red combo would not have occurred to me but it looks fantastic. Man that seat is stitched to perfection, can't wait to see it finished.

GregWeld 12-22-2013 11:12 AM

THANKS!


The man can sew!

preston 12-22-2013 06:08 PM

Not really a street rod aficiando even great ones I'm like "that's nice" but even I got a warm feeling in the pit of my stomach seeing this - nicely done.

Thanks Preston!


I don't think I was ever really a "hot rod guy" --- I was always a mid year Corvette and (hate to say it on here) a '69 Camaro guy... and I've had about half a zillion Tri-Five Chevy's... But I've kind of been there and done that... and I totally get "hot rods" -- they're very different to drive, and to own, than all the other cars I've had. I think I just really like the simplicity of them. And since that damn Charley talked me into the track car -- I get my speed and power fix on the track instead of via the street cars I've always had.

Now I kind of have the best of both worlds in just a little bit different mix -- with the hot rods and the track cars. It's fun really and for now I'm enjoying it. Who knows what happens next. I have a car or truck with "patina" brewing in my fat little shrunken head that I want to build.

RECOVERY ROOM 12-22-2013 07:22 PM

Its nice to see every one liking a Street Rod on here

I love it Greg. Exciting to see it this close to being finished.

Very nice....That will just end your year on a great note..

GregWeld 12-23-2013 02:25 PM

It's missing the braided leather door pulls for the doors.... otherwise I think he's done with it.
