Elliot Bush true

Sorry, but you're still as wrong as you were saying this at the top. I'm also doing one of these and I can say from experience "it's harder to do a hot rod (from a "real old car", that is) because it involves "restoration", engineering, fabrication, trial and error, and often doing things more than once to get it right. Original simply involves one thing___ Restoration.

Pappa Bob Sorry, I do not agree. Its not about what is harder or involves more work. Original is best unless it was a piece of junk in the beginning. To restore an antique to show room condition also takes allot of time, money and fabrication.

Desecrated? Its just a truck dude relax! Hot rodding is doing it your way. Why criticize this guy

Jay, I saw this car first hand and I can tell ya that nothing was slopped on to it.

Jay Street Rods are harder to build then original I have both. My 1934 Chevy Sedan had good wood. I replaced cloth interior. Car not worth what I have in it original down to bird radiator cap. I bought E-bay action .8000. In my case my coupe was a much harder project with AC loaded car. Tight fit every thing . That car gave me heart burn a few times.

I prefer stock originals as well, but this is a hot rod even I could appreciate. Kudos to him for keeping the fenders and hood intact. Very tastefully done, I think fender-less cars or cars with rubber outside of the fender well are very uncool (besides being illegal in California). Look at how much better this looks! This is truly an old school hot rod with class. A breath of fresh air. Not easy making aftermarket parts work without ending up with a bucket of bolts. Safe to assume the judges at the Grand Nationals went over every detail with a microscope. You just can't even place in a competition like that with anything slopped on. This car probably received extra scrutiny.

Lot of fender less hi boy's in California for being illegal. That trucks a street rod. Not same class as original. My fender car 34 sedan original [paint}would be sold before my 3 window fender less coupe. It rides much better AC etc.

Cops just don't write fender tickets that often, but it is a law on the books. It causes spatter to get on other cars, that's why it's illegal. I'll never understand why someone would want to run a car without fenders anyway, it looks incomplete if you ask me. Don't you get tired of cleaning the road grime off the side? Fenders serve a purpose. Front license plate is another law that isn't enforced often.

agree...picture is cheaper and enjoyment the same lol Trailering is more risky to an accident than driving it . SOme wanna believe they just got something special, gold plated etc. They are just nuts and bolts enjoy em before its illegal to drive these
