Thread: 17 hour build

Come on guys, the point was not meant to bash them. I posted this cause i thought the spirit of the whole thing was pretty cool. Think about how 4 guys gathered parts bussed it all the way to vegas , and built a car in the parking lot at a car show, and drove it home, IMO thats pretty hot rod, the time and planning involved takes alot, they could be sitting around the house playing games or worse getting high, but no they are out building cars at a car show! how many of you have done that in all your years as a hot rodder? no the car is not pretty ,but that took big balls to pull that off, not everybody has 30-40 guys in a well stocked garage, with all new parts like chip foose. They hardly pulled off the same feat in 7 days on monster garage, so stop bashing and congratulate them on giving it a shot!

The welds are safe,they made it home
Good effort and cool car ,it needs some finishing and some billet ,but other than that..........its probably built just as good as any car was during the 50s and 60s in some ones garage.I applaud the effort and the men!!!
They could have got drunk and did meth like the rest of the crowd and been bad role models,instead they were good role models and built a ride ,no matter what its classification and they also never said ratrod or completed, 2 big pluses.
Thats the kind of stories I would put in a magazine ,They may finish this car and get magazine coverage just because of where and how.These types of things make for good stories.
The alternator does look funny though
Anymore pics/were you there ?
