WTF!!!

Am I the only one that sees how he has let his "custom" frame get completely covered in rust!?!?!

you can see the detail pics it in bare metal then the big pics its just covered in rust, anyone that lets that happen probably dosent know how to build a car!

killer car......

ilove1stgens.....that is just surface rust won't hurt a thing. I'm sure the car is from the southern area and it is hard for us to keep bar metal form surface rusting up really not a biggie

He's smart. Assemble the entire car and then disassemble again for finishes. There's less of a chance of damaging fresh paint or powdercoat during final assembly because it's all been together before...

That is how most shops build. Assemble the whole car then disassemble paint, powdercoat and reassemble. At least the shop I worked in did it that way. It looks like Boyd's does it that way too.

The project is badass, i'll give him that... but honestly, 45,000 is a bit much for a car in that shape, and no where near completion.
