@MTR what do you mean, are automobiles far better than modern society not "good" enough for the law. Ahjeez of course modern government started that regulations. "Hey, we took away those fantastic automobiles and changed their design, but now you can't drive them either!"

@artdecotimes2942 3 жыл бұрын

@MTR well, your calling it naturally restored to its very paramount beginning of a finish, clean working as it did back in 1938, not good enough for the plastic computers on wheels we have to show for progress. More of an offense as when they put the orange caution triangle on the back of the model T disproving its many advancments for the world and rendering it to "old" and "slow" practically.

Brings back memories. Until I was 15 (I'm 69 now) the family car was a 1953 Desoto Firedome V8 station wagon. We had it for many years. It was two tone green. I remember it had a semi automatic transmission with a clutch pedal. My dad always had a glass pack muffler on it so it had a nice rumble. We lived in NJ and my Grandparents lived in NC so at least once per year we would drive down to visit them. There were 6 kids so I spent many hours with blankets and pillows in that wooden floor cargo area in back. My dad made a wooden rooftop luggage carrier for it so we were quite a sight all loaded up going down the road. Probably got the plans from Popular Science or Popular Mechanics. I never see any of those, even restored, on the road these days.

this car is awesome! I don't get why more people who restore, or rebuild cars like this, don't want this original patina of the body, which probably took the entire life of the car to create, mounted on all new, safe modern frame and engine. This is the kind of car that is a pleasure to own and drive. Love the patina and the wonderful old shapes of the body. Interior is not overdone either. Great car, and I'm not a car guy!!! I'd love to have a few vehicles exactly like this!! Thanks for letting us see it Jay and Jonathon!

Hello Jay I had a 55 2nd edition chevy pickup for over 35 years . It had several motors due to hard use . With a super charger under the hood. It was repainted inside and out with new glass and interior twice . But it had been driven hard and vandalized twice as a daily driver . But I really enjoyed it more when it was left in its dented , scratched stated . It was always left alone in that state when parked . Never needed more than the windshield cleaned . And wiped the smile off the face of more than 1 corvette owner .

My question would be: How does the exterior paint ust affect the long-term health of the car. I would prefer a car with a traditional paint job that was then distressed on top of the elite paint job. Onlookers wouldn't know the difference and the car would be protected by the superior paint job underneath. Just like in a house, the exterior paint is a major part of maintaining a car.

Good heavens, what suicidal thinking. At anything over 30MPH in one of these, the only thing you'll be thrown through is -- the windshield! You're much safer if the car can disintegrate in a controlled fashion, dissipating crash energy rapidly and AWAY FROM the passenger compartment. Modern cars are designed to do this. After a collision from almost any angle at highway speeds, there isn't much left -- only you, still buckled-in and surrounded by deflated airbags. Anyway, I'm pretty sure he had to retrofit at least a few modern safety devices (not shown here) to get a road license in CA for this piece.

Great car! I can imagine some pimple-faced 17 year old guy in his daddy provided, mad bumble bee sounding, rice burner being embarrassed as this "boat" walks away from him at a traffic light. I bet he'd lose his girlfriend.

I see 30 year olds driving POS Civics with loud exhaust, carbon fiber hood and a gigantic rear spoiler. Good for a laugh.

IT looks cool, but is essentially a high dollar hot rod that doesn't have the body done and interior quite finished. Not a budget build at least for the working class. And he tries to make it look original, but different front end, etc... Still love this show and have no problem with Jay talking over people. He is the host and it is his garage which he doesn't even have to show. I'd love to visit his garage!

He likes cars but he's just another California old white elitist. His recent rants about Trump have soured me. I guess he doesn't understand the regular working guys are hurt by illegals keeping wages down, losing our jobs overseas, and the safety problem of all these hidden immigrants. He only sees gardeners, and nannies I guess.

Johnathan and his team are most definitely talented in fixing what looks like a clunker. Plus would agree the DeSoto front end looks better than the original front end.
