Today I got to share this ... add Bo Diddley to Chuck Berry and Buddy Holly and you've got this ... vintage cars & vintage rock & roll ... unbeatable combination.
I wish I could share this to my Facebook page, but it won't let me. Maybe another vid of the song will let me. This is the first time I heard this, and it's such a great rock & roll classic, beat is like Bo Diddley.
Another bad copycat of the great Bo Diddley.Hey clumbsy amateur can't you play something you created yourself? This is rubbish. I zapp quickly to BO, the one and only!
@Mikdeelo did you notice the "side boob"? It's a Turbo. and it hasn't got a V-shaped engine... did some google-ing.
A 500-horsepower engine, a channeled body and a chopped top. But instead of a traditional gasoline V-8, this '34 hodrod replica has a turbocharged 2.0L Ecotec engine that runs on E85.
A CHEVY GEO? you dont know what a hot rod is. i have a real hot rod, a 32 ford roadster steel body, 426 hemi 600 horsepower, 4 speed rock crusher trans, 9 inch ford rear detroit locker, 411 gears, hurst slicks. a geo? 1.0 liters? 3 cylinders? thats not even a car.
@flatheadman1 1981 Jeep J10 honcho with a 455 oldsmobile rocket and a turbo 400 trans, amc T-20 rear and dana 44 front. doing the boddy work but is it ever a beast does 120 mph on the highway and thats not even maxed. its a real race jeep my dad made the motor mounts and had the drive shaft cut and sized right.
@daniel18152 Yeah Boy, gotta love an old kaiser style. '83 CJ, new MSD ignition, new Weber Carb, rebuilt and reinforced t5 Trans, New Racing seats and 5 point harnesses, one piece Yukon rear Axles, and a hell of a lot of other work :]
I don't like to brag, but I have a hotrod just like these cars in the video. It's a Chevy Geo. That's right, 1.0 liters of raw power, spread between three cylinders. It's why chicks dig me.
@blogegog - I don't like to brag, but my girl's name is Josephine like the song in the video. She's tall, pretty, and blond, that's right - 129 lbs of pure power spresd betwen those thighs. And, she digs me.
@blogegog hahaha dude im ah hot rodder and i have a geo its a good gas saver i cant afford to drive my 600horse mustang every day so keep riding hahahahaha
@blogegog i work dead end jobs for nothing but loud and powerful machines, once youve drifted on dirt at 50 mph youll never think of anything else again!!!!!! but the geo is a good 'git" car for sure
@blogegog I don't like to correct people, but its called a Metro, it was a Geo Metro for years, then a Chevy Metro for like one year. I had one as well, the high end 4 cyl model. Def a chick magnet if they were oppositely charged.....Heh. But amusingly enough, some dude made a RWD Metro, with a turbo'd inline 6, that actually runs 9 sec 1/4's. Just FYI (and just youtube 9 sec metro if you want to see). Peace
bare metal is a good look for a hot rod. anybody can make a car look good with a gallon of bondo and paint, and have no flaws. a person that can make a car look good in bare metal is a artist.
92% of teenagers have turned to Hip Hop and Pop.If you are part of the 8% that still listen to real music,copy and paste this message to another 5 videos.
@68bop WELLLLLL shit face i admit i dont know much about hot rods or such but when you learn not to spit any fucken shit out of your mouth you'll learn I've been building mopars with my dad since i could walk...by and by im in the middle of getting my liscence....
@68bop I thought a rugged looking no paint rusty and rough with a hot engine was a ratrod not just a rat and a rat was just a regular rusty looking car.
@68bop Excuse me, but back in the '50s flat paint was THE thing for hot rods. Flat paint, pinstripes, flames, whatever. THAT was THE hot rod thing back then. And you think that they're rats? And I think bare metal would look cool, too. Ratrods are ones that are made to look like speeding deathtraps. Which is fine, because back then, that was the big thing to do for speed parts. Toss a Flathead into a T, and you were the BMOC. Small-Block Chevy? DAYUM you were the BOMB. Candy = Kustoms. lrn2diff.
@Rockinghorserider1 I used to hear this song, and George's other songs, all the time on the radio rock stations. Different radio nowadays. Corporate commercial rock pop rap rebellion. Thank God for YouTube and internet radio where you can find this, and other old/new music. Not a fan of the commercials they're starting to place before these tunes now on Youtube though. Don't ruin a good thing guy's for extra cash. A commercial before The Replacements "Bastards of Young" video?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I was riding my Yamaha R1 Sportbike listening to my iPod going about 80 mph in a 65 zone. Just as this song started a cop got behind me and hit the lights. I don't know if it was because I was in a pissy mood or the song or the rebel in me but I lifted the front wheel up and ran. This song played while I got chased and just as the song ended, I lost him.
@karpatzasrevenge Dude, I have been riding motorcycles since I was 17. Over 30 years. My first bike was a KZ900 I bought in 1977. My first sportbike was a GPZ900 I bought when I was in the Army in 1988. I forgot more about riding than you will ever know.
@Raving: Listen, I don't care what you ride. I also don't care that you listen to an iPod. I don't care for motorcyclists that don't keep to the speed limit (and haven't crashed yet, that is). I don't care about your mood nor that you regard yourself as rebellious and I don't care you popped a wheelie like every other jackass on a sportsbike. I do care the cops didn't get you cause suckas like you need to get off the road. riding too fast, intended wheelies, pluggin ya ears - matter of time :)
My grandmother,Josephine,just passed,no condolences please,I just wanted to thank-you. I looked in my own collection,with 0 luck. Great song,she was a feisty Italian broad. This helps alot. reminds me of my grandpa 70 years ago,tryin to woo her.
just caught the end of gone in 60 seconds, and this song was playin at the close of the movie, seen george a few times live, its amazing id lost this song from my memory banks, ride on motherfucker !
Is there anything with an engine you can't drive to this song!!?? O.K. I'm sure somebody will come up with a funny but my Opel GT, or Mustang jams to this!!
