This is the REAL DEAL, Little Honda got the Play, this SHOULD have been the Hit, Sufaris done it, BOO!, NO ONE done it like the Hondells,These Guys were a LOT better than the B Boys! By the way, Littel Deuce Coupe was a 32 Ford it was on the front of Beach Boys little Deuce Coupe Album,EVERY young boy had in 1963/64.Bucket T is a Model T with no top, big engine,chrome headers,Nice Chrome Wheels, Believe me We had it ALL,You Young guys don'r know about fast cars,WE HAD EM!

Wonderful Short Film

The Hondells were actually studio musicians and singers that were just assembled to do some session work - when the first record did well, the record company sent out four players to be "The Hondells". It's my understanding that one of the studio players was Glen Campbell ~ so, the reason that "The Hondells" sound so smooth and refined is because they were actually studio paid musicians - not just kids off the street making a record.

@r5o0b Well I think you should check out a band on myspace called "The Johnny Holidays". They're 20 somethings, and they have great harmonies and beats with a cool surfy pop sound, and tell all your friends. Cheers!

@packingten in yours and theirs wet dreams they were better than the beach boys.

'NUFF SAID...MY BAND'S GONNA DO THIS. We do 3 songs by The Baggys - 1 Beach boys , we do Bruce and Terry and Rip Chords, Sunrays, Stick Shifts, and a few Ventures. NOTHING but 60s - and almost NONE of it is 'rock and roll' - got the old amps and guitars and we do 'em note for note.

They don't make music like this anymore,and if they did, we'd get sick of it and move on. Now that it's nostalgic, it's even better 'cause now we don't have school...can surf all week long! Oh wait- I miss school!

@packingten Considering the late model EFI Camaro Gen 3 LS1 engine will smoke anything from flat head to SBC, we "got " the performance! Boy it's gonna suck givin it up to the new cars when im an old timer! Nevertheless, we STILL respect the hot rodders before us, and its an honor to keep driving AMERICAN hot rods, honda creeps can hit the dock and keep going!
