I love this thing!!! I would get a wider rear end though, looks kinda funky. I love the streched look of the fron end, glad to see someone using a good ol 6 cylinder

@waterwart  what do u mean

[UnfoundWay]

Hell yes! No stupid computer controlled electronic roll litigation. No traction control. No nav system. No computer controlled climate. No park assist. In fact, no anything that allows for a total idiot to be able to drive. Apart from that, no external plastic crap that is being passed as automotive fashion, like fender panels, ground effects, bumpers, and skirts. Automakers need to take a clue from you. No everyone wants to drive a computer with a cheap plastic body on it. New cars suck!

[1956Simbo]

[redghost105]

@waterwart how about you be this big man you make yourself out to be and just upload a video of your rat rod? if you do that ill go "play with a toy"...most likely tuning my car or driving my dads studebaker

[waterwart]

@redghost105 Hey kid.....go find a toy to play with. And leave the rat rod stuff to us guys.

[redghost105]

@waterwart so now that your losing the argument your gonna troll my videos some more and say "i dont care"?

[waterwart]

@redghost105 So what the fuck? Go play your guitar and leave me out of your mouth.

[waterwart]

@redghost105 I don't care. You blew it.

[redghost105]

@waterwart I get more tail and money from playing guitar at restaurants and stuff in a month than you do all year, I;m starting to see a trend here...you call out anyone whos better than you

[redghost105]

@waterwart thats your come back? troll all my videos and say go home? just admit it...your a douchebag

[waterwart]

@redghost105 Go home boy. I hear that 1200 doller guitar callin you.

[redghost105]

@cpmotors Dude I love the rod!

its awesome what you did with this, and I also appreciate how clean you keep your garage(unlike some people) if you dont mind me asking, how much did it cost to build the whole car? I would love one for myself

[redghost105]

@waterwart I have helped my dad with the car ever since a few months before I got my guitar,

and before you got on to me about having no videos, where are yours? if your this great inbreed machanic with your own rat rod then why dont you put a video of it up?

[redghost105]

@waterwart My dad owns a 1945 studebaker bullet nose, we bought it in junkyard condition and fixed it up, We have a 289 small block engine inside of it with a few mods and it pumps out 450 horsepower

We had a very hard time trying to fit it inside, we have to re locate the radiator because the 289 is nearly to big for inside the hood
