    This car is unbelievable in every way. I work in the classc/custom industry myself, so i know how much effort goes into a build like this. What amazed me even more every time is how you don't see were a wrench has been on

    Amazing Pontiac! A friend has a '55 Pontiac racecar (482ci Pontiac engine, 9.30s in 1/4 mi) the same color! That color absolutely sets of all the chrome. A 800hp+ Pontiac engine is pretty pricey and he kicked the rods out last year, still getting it back together. Good stuff as usual, thanks

    Love just about everything about this car. Blue is my favorite color and this is a gorgeous hue. What I am not crazy about is the engine and drivetrain choice for a build of this cost and quality. I guess I am just an old head on Pontiac’s, but would have loved to have seen a Pontiac engine custom built from Butler. And only a 4sp auto? I guess with that much horsepower, you can make that work. Anyway…still an awesome car.

    Nice build. Got to respect the artwork. That being said, for that kind of money, they could have fabbed up body panels on a custom frame and had the same outcome instead of taking a car that's rare to begin with and destroying it. I love hot rods, but when you have an almost unlimited budget, you should think about the Jurassic Park saying, "Just because we can, doesn't mean we should."
