    The most dramatic transformation here, for me, is that interior. That is such an incredible looking, MODERNIZED interior. I didn't think it was possible. But I guess anything is possible if you throw enough money at it. Most folks focus on the powertrain and the outside paint and call it "good enough". This build is next level. Such beautiful art, and a huge improvement over typical 60s/70s interiors.

I have watched it on DIY Garage a few times and also on Hoonigan Bonus channel. That car sounds so mean and so so wicked. I love all the cars you all build. Love to see a video build of Bob Gawlik's chevy II. Love to see more videos of the cars you all built like on DIY Garage , low mileage, and Hand built cars channel.

    Freaken "Deadly Fabricators". If ones-self has the shop and tools, as well as having someone flip income is there for stress-free workplace. What a job, even the headers were custome built, and not to forget speaker boxes as well. But the main question is, what did it weigh in at completed? Lots of steel.

    Unbelievable build - always been a (whisper it) Roadster Shop fan - but this has to be the equal of anything they have done to date. My only negative - and it's not particular to this build as it applies to most - is why - given the complexity and detail of builds like this, are the cars still usually fitted with solid rear ends? They went the way of the dodo decades ago (for most of us) - and compared to some of the other engineering feats. surely fitting an IRS set up - and the improvements it would bring - would besuch an obvious mod? Is there a reason that I can't see??

That's nothing!! Now, I'm sure DSE worked on the car more at some times than others and not just 1,500 hours annually, but just trying to bring things in perspective. I'm familiar with the owner of the car and feel he has no reason to lie. Also, DSE's shop rate is $100/hour...therefore, you do the math.
