Hot Rods Keith Hill’s “Federale Coupe” wins Hot Rod of the Year Award!

yes we will be in Pleasanton in August --- See ya there !!

 

Awsome ride! Love the b/w photo too.

 

Perfection in every aspect and from all angles!

 

I have seen this hot rod in person and it is outstanding in all areas...... Great job to all that had a hand in it's build. I like it that it is driven and driven hard. Great job Keith.....

 

Congrats to a fellow Okie an award well deserved.

 

Thats awesome! It deserves it. I love this car, the pics Tom posted of it from GNRS are my screen saver on my laptop

 

The "Federale Coupe" was indeed in Pleasanton this past weekend ... and is even more******in' in person! ... so much so that I picked it for my father's memorial award:

​

My dad would certainly have approved! ... not only because Keith's (HEMI-powered) coupe is so nice ... but also because Keith & his wife are such super nice people! ... It was truly a pleasure meeting and chatting with them the past 4 days!

​

 

Good job Keith!! Love it

 

Absolutely beautiful, well done.

 

Perfect! Really nicely done Coupe. Does anyone know who made the intake that is on the HEMI? Bob

 

@Keith Hill / @podunk will surely correct me if I'm wrong ... but I'm pretty sure it's a WEIAND #WC245 ... with the same custom finish that was applied to the timing cover. valley cover, air cleaners, etc.

 

Awesome Car. pictures do not do it justice...the car is must see!!!

 

I like this car, but the wheels don't do it for me... congrats on the award !

 

The "Federale Coupe" at the Bonneville Salt Flats - August 24, 2015​

 

This build is so nice that even the ugliest part of an automobile looks good, the wiring. Bob

 

Curt Iseli (@Curt Six) and Steve*****an / Geoff Miles (@TRJ) did a great job on the "THE FEDERALE COUPE" article in issue Number Sixty Eight of the Rodder's Journal:

​

Inspired by the Cop Shop Coupe, “Jake” Jacobs’ ’34 and the Super Bell Coupe, Keith Hill of Bixby, Oklahoma, worked with Pinkee’s Rod Shop in Windsor, Colorado, to build a streetable ’33 Ford with an aggressive look. The end result was the “Federale Coupe,” which took home the 2015 Goodguys Hot Rod of the Year award. Steve & Geoff shot the chopped and channeled ’33 on location in downtown San Francisco as well as in their studio.​

 

Bob wiring should never be ugly! Unless you are afraid of it!

 

Missed this the first couple times around. Simply awesome.
