Shame it hasn't got the huge goodyear slicks on it that it wore in the movie. Love it anyhow, always liked it because it combines 30's style hot rod touches with 60s era customising....on a 40s body style!Good to see the car is still around and in good hands.
+Martin Harris Hi Martin, Thanks for your comment, and I'm glad you enjoyed the video. When you have a moment, please type into CZcams.com and type in "My Car story with Lou" and I hope you'll see other cars you'll enjoy, take care, Lou
Thanks Lou, I'll do that!
thats not the same one they used in the movie
This was just a prop in the musical number,, the real "grease lightning" car is the white one
Rushdude2112 that's what I'm sayin . When I think about the movie I think of the white and the black cars be for this one .
that's not ever the prop car thats a remake
This is Greased Lightning, the white car was actually called White Lightning.
The song is a dream of what the white car could be. The dialogue before the song is: "..this car COULD automatic, systematic, hyyyyydromatic. Why it's Greased Lightning!" Therfore, THIS is the Greased Lighting car.

Time to build one for my sister who loved the movie
Very nice :-) Hope your build comes out the way you'd like it.
I always wondered what happened to that car after the movie too cool 😎
Hi Larry, ...ended up in a museum in Volo IL :-) Lou
The car looks fantastic after all these years. I remember seeing it in the 1978 movie in the final scene.

Don't shoot To sender, but they really ripped this guy new one, for saying the movie was all about that car,. When that car wasn't in the race, it wasn't at the drive-in, the grease lightning car,, but hey it's not my argument, and I don't want this gentleman thinking I'm starting something with him. I think the car is just beautiful,. It has everything to do with the movie

I always kinda thought it looked so tacky with the oversize Fins in back, it kinda looks like a monster Mobile. I never seen a car with exhaust on top of the tail lights (now that is odd)

@@loucostabile Thank you. its just that i had to say it. i almost live inside this movie when i watch it. it brings back so many. love to see the other videos,
How come in the end of the movie the paint looks more like a metallic Kandy red which looks deep even in sunlight where as this looks more an inferno red even indoors? As well as I believe the lightning bolts in the movie were decals. Looking at doing a paint scheme and having a hard time finding out what the original paint was actually. Any input would be appreciated.
Hi Taygen Palmer, Unfortunately I'm not an Expert on this car. Hope a Viewer can share knowledge and help with your questions, Lou
Yeah the paint don't look right
[If] this is the original, it was not restored original, to the movie. If you watch them movie, the hood latch hole and associated structures are clearly visible, under the front of the hood. The front, on yours, is smooth.
Additionally, the headlights are different.
I'm not saying it's not the original car, I'm just saying it was not restored to the original look, in the movie.

does this car run and drive? or is it just a show car only?
Show car
The one in the movie had Goodyears on it
It had Firestone 500s on it. Looked to be wider wheels too.

It only "cool" because of the movie. If Grease never came out and you seen this car at Walmart you'd probably think "WTF? This is horrible! Who would spend that much to make this?".

Hi, is this a car museum and can it be toured? What is the museum located? great restoration job!
Hi Bud,
Yes this is a car museum, and you can tour the cars. See www.VoloCars.com
Take care,
Lou
it's now on the vault tour at the Peterson auto museum in LA
The one in the Peterson Museum is a clone of the Grease Lightning. The Volo car is the real deal
Lou, who was the original designer of grease ligting ?
Hmmm, Not sure, hopeful a Viewer can help with your question. Lou
It was the guy who designed the batmobile and the munsters hot rod
George Barris
Not the car doesn't even have back license plate and circle on trunk for the spare tire

@@Repcitykickz yeah and has sparkles in the paint. Just look at the diecast models they sell of it
@@chrisspearline767 yeah your right it does have metal flake paint. This is a poor replica
Wow that is one ugly car.👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽😳
