The tires have sidewalls, it's not scraping the ground, there's no aluminum tilt column, no automatic transmission, no mustang 2 front end, no pimpy gangster paint job, no tacky ugly pimp gangster crap of any kind, just a clean straight basic low tech hot rod, just like Grandpa used to make. What a breath of fresh air !!! Very nicely done. My hat is off to you, sir

@@jpalberthoward9 Not only that. How about building stuff they way they used to? If I wanted easy I'd pop in a Chevy 350, auto trans, and 10 bolt rear. Everybody has been doing this forever and I hate it. I love love love the Chevy small block but I'm tired of seeing it in what is supposed to be an older traditional build. You can't build a 40s hot rod with a SBC. 50s maybe but it would have been a brand new engine and not so common. Sbc in a roadster or A would be more 60s. I like picking an era and sticking to it 100%. I'm collecting parts to run a Rocket with a manual trans and basically copy "the look" of this roadster in this video.

I tried looking on here...but what color is that gray? It reminds me of Ford tractor gray from the 30's-40's. Which would be neat because a hot rodder who might have built a car like this in the 50's-60's would have had access to such a color at the time. So it would be a period correct color so to speak.
