DEAN MARTIN'S Stutz, a Phantom III and a Mercury Hot Rod - all in a day's work at Creative Customs
Classic car , Vintage car , Veteran car and RADwood era car restorations and car repairs from the vantage point of the mechanics, technicians, auto electric techs, panel beaters and painters that work to keep our motoring heritage on the road.
Creative Customs Ep2 - In this video I take a trip down the Mornington Peninsula to see an incredible Stutz Blackhawk once owned by superstar entertainer Dean Martin. There's also a Rolls Royce Phantom III in for repair and a Ford Mercury based hot rod having some recomissioning work done.
Twice weekly visits to classic auto workshops featuring cars from the veteran to RADwood eras & including car restoration, rebuilds, repairs and restomods to anything from Aussie V8s, American muscle cars, Euro exotics, JDM, your coveted everyday runabout and more. If it's built before 1999, there's every chance I'll film it.
My name is Dave and I simply l love old cars and visiting workshops to chat to the people working on them. Added to that, I devour car content on youtube so I thought I'd join in and make some myself.
Hopefully you might like to come along for the journey as well.

    Scott Wilson, here! Affidavit and an initial list of law enforcement and jurist expert witnesses attached. And know that while I don't know exactly what all it was that you were mindgaming and threatening me about because of your also deliberately and feloniously attacking me via my (type of) hearing disability (else it was the Maranconi's either governmental and or private sector Stasi at it yet again perpetrating it via their Deep Fakes software), I do know that what I was being mindgamed and threatened with (in the version of this UA-cam video that I saw and or was shown via my cellphone) was very serious and even evil-most. Moreover, you're obviously the Maranconi's people -- and horrible ones at that! Thus my reasons for not only red flagging this video multiple times and ways, but banning your channel from my UA-cam feed! This, even though I liked what the fella you were covering in the video was doing with the Austin Healy rebuild and I would have otherwise wanted to learn more. Rather than waste any more of my time on you, I am simply attaching as follows my latest email thread and Affidavit-to-be as it should enlighten you as to the truth about me -- and the Maranconis: ''Announcement of 'Because of my (Scott Wilson's) having so exercised the same' as a brief week's end Situation Report (27 September 2024)''(Contains list of law enforcement and jurist expert witnesses to be contacted).pdf drive.google.com/file/d/1oh5h2dXUJhylhCizkG2tyftmNHBcDQzu/view?usp=drivesdk Lastly, and in closing, know that most mildly put, it would behoove you to immediately cease and desist with all such treatment and criminalization of me (Scott Wilson) -- period! Eagerly awaiting your written detailed explanation in response via courier and or physical mail, I remain. In Christ: Yours faithfully, Scott Wilson P.O. Box 198102 Nashville, TN 37202 P.S.: Law enforcement readers know that it is now 23:30 Central Time on 1 October 2024 at the exact time of this writing and of my posting it into the Comments section of this UA-cam video. And should there ever be any question or confusion as to which UA-cam video this Comment letter is in response, know that it is in response to the video entitled "Tell Seinfeld, the Austin Healey just got better" posted by and on the Dave's Classic Garage Tours V2" UA-cam channel "7mo ago".

    The Stutz looks a lot like the 70's 'Pimpmobile' that were popular among a certain demographic in the US. Of course, they were usually nothing more than a Lincoln or Cadilac with a bunch of bolt-on accessories. Not nearly as nice as a Stutz Or something like the Corvorado from the Jame Bond movies, Live and Let Die.

    What a car! and a thoroughly bloody good bloke. Thanks for sharing top stuff! As for The New Avengers TR7, it only appeared in a few episodes because it kept breaking down with electrical problems. It never put Joanna Lumley off as she had a convertible converted to a Grinnall V8 in the 1908's....as did I. Still have a 7 all original and has never been welded, I have not upgraded it at all because I want the drive to be as it was when I was a 20 year old and that adds to the experience. The turning circle on the 7 is way superior to modern cars these days. Great video luv it!!

    The jag definitely did not come on those wheels. The ones in the video have a visible centre cap and look chrome. The bumpers also don’t look stock in the video clip.

    Wonderful video and a trip down memory lane. I had a '73 Rambler Matador sedan, and there was a bloke in the next town who had 2 Javelins (a red one and a back one) of a similar vintage to the one in the video, and I would have loved one of those too, but alas, even back in the mid 80's Javelin's were pricy things (I think he sold the black one for circa $20k around that time), and well out of my reach. I bought my Matador in '87 off family for $1500 (mates rates?) and used it as a second/weekend car for about 7 years, and loved every minute of it - one of my mates at the time when summing up how luxurious/comfortable it was in comparison to it's contemporary locally built competition, declared, "this is a real lazy mans car", hahaha. Would love to own a "classic" Rambler again someday. Cheers!

    Dick Teague is criminally under-rated and yes, the Lambo-curves of the Matador X are indeed best without 5mph bumpers. I'll bet that his original sketch did not have them, and originality is a fool's game with a mass-produced vehicle - for me, modifications should be IN PERIOD (those modern wheels would be sold immediately!). I would fit driving lights in the mounting holes, so as not to depreciate the car for the "factory is God" nuts.

      Wheels do look somewhat off I agree but there’s so much more on that car that’s right.

    We all know it's 5 mile an hour bumpers. But that's OK, the old fella has a lot of nice cars.

    Ray is a great fella. I remember going to his Museum at Gormandale as a kid. Often see him working away at his Traralgon shed. Can only dream of expanding my Mopar collection to match his! Cheers
