Your right they do have the Baddest projects in the Universe.

They just keep setting the bar higher!

They're also working on another of George Poteet's cars, a 1932 Ford 'Miller Hauler'. Very cool almost 'traditional' styled truck. :hail:

That second gen Firebird is shaping up to be a bad ass car!!

Garage Dog 65 01-18-2010 07:04 PM

The Miller Hauler is very nice !

They always set the bar high for their builds - which is nice to see.

All the other shops must get tired of chasing these guys...

And Moose must be getting very tired of sanding on all that cast iron ... he should get an award for that thankless job.

:thumbsup:

HOLOHAN'S HOT ROD SHOP 01-18-2010 07:24 PM

Moose wouldn't want it any other way, he the best there is at that job. I watched him for days sanding off the letters off the tires for the 36' Ridler car. Only Moose could handle that...........

Knowing him the way I do, he has a ton of patience. The jobs he does smoothing those parts out, takes alot of time, and patience.

GregWeld 01-18-2010 09:23 PM

Wow - the work on that Buick is - words don't describe it.... of course, I think you could say that about all of Rad Rides work...

I need a road trip to go sweep their floors!!! :rofl: :rofl:

Diognes56 01-18-2010 09:30 PM

Rad Rides is awsome :hail: :hail: :hail: , and they are all really cool :thumbsup: (atleast the guys I have met).

Not to mention...

I met Moose at a World of Wheels show, and I cannot begin to describe how much of a gentleman he was. He took quite a bit of time to discuss all sorts of details of the car they had there (I think it was the Flashback Fastback), answering all sorts of questions from people as they looked the car over.

The owner had a AMG G wagon that his son wrecked, so they are using it.

We dropped in the day Jared had the entire Benz electrical system laying out on the showroom floor and it was fully operational with 12 volt battery laying there and all. Funny to watch him rolling up and down the windows, tripping the door locks, trunk release and all the other stuff - ops checking everything before they started the install. It was a serious pile of wire ! They are a sic crew... :cheers:

I have seen some of the stuff you have done that would drive people f****n nuts,Sometimes it is those little things that make all the difference.:lol:

WSSix 01-19-2010 03:15 PM

is the 3rd gen purpose built for something other than looking cool? It's out there in many regards and I'm just hoping it will do more than sit there begging for attention.

Neil B 01-19-2010 03:54 PM

I must admit I was a little nervous when they started fabbing the flares on this one. However, the closer the car gets to metalwork completion, the more you can see the true vision behind this one. This is WAY out-of-the-box car building and it's looking like it might be a home run.

Aschle 01-20-2010 11:24 PM

I wish that I had the vision they have... As much as we are shown by the pictures, I don't like the flares/ body styleing at all... I think it should be interesting when complete... I'll probably really like it after completion, just right now, I don't see it...;) Oh well, it is someone elses ride and not everyone will like it, but nobody will be able to say the work done is bad, the work looks GREAT !
