The fuel cell is by fuel safe, that is a billet cover that was machined in house by Rad Rides. I called about it when I saw it on the 87 Camaro they are building. Believe it or not, they will sell one to you. That is if you have $3,500.00 burning a hole in your pocket.

Sick.

Mr, Poteet, I think could be considered more of a venture capitalist than a customer. To have a guy like that to allow the builder to basically explore designs and let the imagination run wild has got to be awesome.

Living the dream.

I had the opportunity to be a Rad Rides on Saturday. I probably spent at least a half an hour studying this car, it defies description. The fabrication, fit and finish planning and assembly are just off the hook. What's under the car is as impressive as topside. The one off parts made in house would make any automaker jealous, the use of different finish techniques were quite unique. The ideas that you can get being there, just on the basic things like use of aircraft hardware are incredible.

Troy is the most down to earth guy you could imagine, those that have met him and been to his shop know what I mean. The passion that he has when he describes the various parts of the build is an adrenaline rush for a car guy to listen to. He doesn't stand back and watch his "people" build the car, Troy is right in there getting his hands dirty.

I have about 70 pics but I'm not sure about posting them, when I find out I'll post up.

Two thing would happen if I bought one....
1) Me trying to hit enter on the computer....
2) or once I did buy it and come home my wife...
