    Very cool. Shows how simple these things are when you break them down.

    If you click on the ***le of the video, it takes you to the Vimeo page. Info on the Vimeo page says that this was shot over a 3 hour span.
     
  10. I like that it was so hot that the water evaporated by the end :).

    Yeah it was about 3 hours.. Its crazy how long it takes us to build a car like that and how easy it is to tear apart!!.. The car is currently udergoing reconstructive surgury and will be back on the road better than ever!!!

    Here it was when it got to the shop (from Weez FB page)

    I do find it funny as hell how long it takes to put a simple car like this together. I'm on too many years to think of on my roadster P/U. Sad thing is, Jeem was just teasing me the other day that with all the sneaky reproportioning stuff I have done, the only thing ANYBODY is ever gonna remember is the 16" Halibrand no holes. Oh well, I'll know... Hope Weez gets it together real soon. I've been there before!

    Weez should have his own TV show,
    like the one when the guy would paint landscapes.

    Good to see the roadster getting fixed up!

    I'm super stoked that Lucky is on the case! Looking forward to straighter, more solid car than I had- and definitely a dual master cylinder!

    It's already got a '36 rear and bones to replace the '32 it had, and a model A crossmember and spring replacing the flattened '32 it had.

    It's weird not having a hot rod right now, I'll be glad to get it back-

    It's good to see that the car is in Lucky's shop after the fracas and will come out better than before. I must have missed the it got smucked thread when I was out on my boat getting sunburned to the point I look like old patina.

    It is absolutely kinda "other worldly" to be without your hot rod, especially when it's your daily or near daily driver. I have had the Plymouth down for the better part of a year right now, and am putting back together as we speak... Hope all goes well with yours!
