Awesome video Matt. It’s very cool to have old school hot rodders and gear heads on the East Coast and West Coast. The daily driver pick up is a masterpiece
So stoked to see you guys in Washington and Seattle speed shops UA-cam channel is awesome!!!! I hope everyone here supports it we gotta keep content like this going
Younger guy here, Matt Field was a huge inspiration for me watching him daily his pickup on Instagram. I dreamt of doing the same, he messaged me great advice for years while I was no where financially close to getting into early Fords. He was one of the first people I messaged when I finally got my 39 Deluxe :]
OMG!!! That's the kid that bought my rag top!!!! Is it still around??? I'm in Marysville still. I sold my goat a few years ago. Now I'm working on a 56 chev P\U
Nice interview Matt !! Very interesting how common all of the thinking and feelings are among "gearheads". Like Matt said, don't know exactly why the fascination with old "Fords" exactly. Just was always attracted to those shapes I guess. The Hot Rod and Custom magazines played a big part. I will say, and frequently do, that when I was a kid up until about 12 or 13, all of my toys were "broken" because I would almost immediately take them apart to see what made them work and it took until that age to be able to begin to get them back together. The "Model Kits" were quite essential in forwarding the "addiction" also. @ 81 YO, I'm still HUGELY TEMPTED by all of the "will it run" activities I see all these gearheads doing. Believe it or not, however, I'm still "too busy" to allow that to happen for the "time being". ;o) Participating in a "Find" like that recent Model A Find you recently posted would be an "experience of a lifetime" !!! I bet you could "sell" chances or places for people to participate in those activities. With a HUGE release of liability, of course. ;o)
Morning Matt & Matt, the podcast dosen't peak my interest like your "how to" videos, I still watch, when I was a kid I would sit with my neighbor & listen to his stories about years past, he had a 1917 model T pickup that was made from a touring car with a Ford kit, don't think Ford made a actual pickip in 1917, he ran into a street car in Pontiac Michigan, he repaired the car & parked it...if I remember correctly the old boy passed in the early 1970's...
My grandfather AL was an aircraft mechanic during WW2 and later Korea. Plenty of stories and could fix anything. Or learn how to if he didn't know. Every place he lived he had a workshop set up. He instilled that passion into me.
Matt (Sea. Speed) mentioned in his latest video ----- you had a Podcast covering him this weekend ----- He is only a couple hours away ------- Enjoy watching the two of you -------- Hope you enjoyed your stay out here ------ it DOESN'T rain all the time here ----- Like you mentioned ----- one on the East Coast ---- and one on the West Coast ------ Doing and Sharing the same thing ------ Thank You for the Special Coverage on Matt at Sea. Speed ------------- Have a Good Holiday ------ Rodney
Just a word from an old (60) car guy who now lives in Norway (in Europe). I thought I'd send a 'Hello' just so you have some idea of how far you're reaching out into the world. My First car was a 1938 Chrysler Royal 5-window coupe that had been an old Drag Car. It was Primer Red and ONLY Body and Frame but I learned how to do body work on her as well as Dreamed Big while sitting in her with my JC Whitney Catalog. She also had a new pair of McCreary Wrinkle-wall Drag Slicks on the 8-inch rear end which kind of made me the Coolest kid in school for about a minute and a half. Sadly I didn't have the $20,000 (this was the 1970s) to make that Dream come true so I sold her to pick up a pair of 1956 Tudor Chevy Wagons (Not Nomads or Delivery, just window wagons) which I built into One very little rust keeper and a good deal of extra parts (Barrels of Park Light and Rear Light assemblies). I also bought a brand new (2nd Hand A1 Fiberglass) Single-piece Fiberglass Tilt front end with Hinge Kit. She had a 327 4 barrel Camaro Engine (194 valve) and a Muncie 3 speed. She also had the Camaro Bucket seats and console with the Automatic as well as the Manual gear shift hole assemblies. I had 3 sets of Dash Chrome, one was Bow-Tie and 2 were the standard slot-like, still black-painted inserts. The Only rust issues on the whole car was a hole on the drivers side floor that had been sheet metal pop rivet repaired probably sometime in the 1960's, and just a tiny bit of Rocker Rust on both sides. The spare tire well was still a shiny aqua blue paint as clean as factory. The windows rolled down, the brakes worked on all 4 corners and I even got the engine running smoothly though I never took her out on the road as she was clearly an unfinished project at that time, and the Cops knew me kinda well in my little home town for the 1954 Ford F10 pickup I used to drive Everywhere just before the 56's at the age of 13 or so...another story. Anyway, watching your channel Breathes New Life into this old guy and I'd Love to tell you some interesting Car Times PRE-INTERNET about the cars and Parts that have drifted through these Pre-arthritic two hands and some of the Car-Guy Characters I've had The Pleasure of running accross during my Truly Charmed and Fortunate Life, I was a Kid who had some Grown-up Friends who Understood how important Cars were to me and kindly took me out with them when they were walking the yards and who included me it their build projects, back when 1932 Fords could still be picked up for a song. Sorry for being so long winded but watching your channel really strikes a nerve, an I haven't even told you about The Tucker, yet. Peace, Ken Bruno (Song Writer).
There's 2 cars that I would love to have again ! One is a '66 Ford Fairlane 2 door hardtop with a 289 motor and the other is a '68 or '69 Dodge Dart GT 2 door hardtop with 318 motor !
The car I regret getting rid of was a 56 Chevy 2dr post, it had a 265 bored to 283 with an 098 with solids and pinned rocker studs. I don't remember what pistons it had, but it ran strong with a 4 barrel through a 3 speed into a 370 open rear screw. Damn I miss that car.
Maybe 20 years ago doctor did some blood tests on me. He was a car guy too. He told me that I had very iron-rich blood! I said no doc I've got rust flowing through my veins! 🤣🤣 . So I would not call a problem as some people may not your choice. This is just part of a Car guys DNA!
When I first got married I was on the hunt for a Cord Westchester. I found one, body only parts car for $2500. It sold the next day because I didn’t have a $500 deposit to give to the guy until friday
University Ford, closed it down when they sold it. Best job ever. (owned by Pierre), then went to Olympic Lincoln Mercury and was there when it sold to Jack Carroll, then Harris Ford in Lynnwood.
I've always been into old cars but they are hard to find here in Kansas ! Because most of them that was here was picked up from people from the East and West !
Trashcan 🗑Approved. My name's David and I collect... knowledge. Born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio. Now living in central Kentucky. And, you really hit the nail on the head with the hoarding / affordability remark. Yeah.
Any dude or woman can build a hotrod. It takes time and love to restore a old car ir truck. I had 1930 1/2 ton truck I bought when I was 28. When I was 40 I had to sell it to get married. I was beside myself for selling it for years. it had very little rust you coud put it in palm of you hand and original guages too.
Chopped, channeled, dropped? Consider popular prewars have long locomotive front ends, sedan 4 and 6 cylinder cars really need stubby front ends extended. I found this putting a 300 6 in a 32 4 door Super Six. 6" front extension made a big difference should have gone 8". Car is 16' bumper to bumper so didn't hurt practical. Tough bit is pie cutting the hood to solve taper to cowl. Survivor rod indeed, 12 years trying to get the rod pro T rod built early 70s 327/hydrromatic stuck in a dry dusty basement 1981 a block from my house. Owner inherited the house lives in Pennsylvania and doubt he knows the T exists and house unoccupied for 35 years. I send him fair offers for the house but he doesn't want to be bothered.
Your 32 B model Ford review blew me away I really hope you do not rod , it if I could afford to do so I would purchase it from you. Nothing here to interest me. Where are all those rods of the 50s and 60s ? It would be good to see how they ended up or if they are still running. John Australia.
I liked the sentiment of wanting to have or build a genuine '50's era Hot Rod, but I first got into Hot Rodding in 1964 at age 14. The way I remember it, for many many years was the appallingly shoddy workmanship & downright unsafe construction of far too many. Also I cringed then & still do at the utter disrespect given to rare body types. In my country, we had 1933 Ford Sport coupes, a body type not produced anywhere else in the world. I have seen three. One senselessly destroyed on the speedway, one good useable body hacked up for parts because it wasn't a real coupe & one nicely Rodded. I have seen a sound 1932 Touring chopped up to make a channeled Pickup cab, These two models alone are the sort of thing that people would kill for today & I knew it even as a teen. I'm still appalled even thinking of how it was "back in the day".
It's good to hear other addicts and their stories. I'm chuck and I have a problem too
I'm Justin and I'm an addict too. It's been 2 hours since my last rust fix. I'm going to relapse after this video.
Hahah love these comments!
I’m Paul and I need help !
I think visiting & interviewing others is a great addition to the show.
Awesome video Matt. It’s very cool to have old school hot rodders and gear heads on the East Coast and West Coast. The daily driver pick up is a masterpiece

That’s awesome! That little pickup has inspired a lot of people!
First video where I can actually say I enjoyed the sound of ... crickets! Nice interview, good luck to Matt And Seattle Speed Shop!
Glad you enjoyed it!
They're frogs!
Matt , I love your truck ! I have a '57 Willys , '50 Chevy pickup and a '54 International pickup !
OMG!!! That's the kid that bought my rag top!!!! Is it still around??? I'm in Marysville still. I sold my goat a few years ago. Now I'm working on a 56 chev P\U

Really enjoyed this podcast. I met Matt 10 or 12 years ago, cool guy. He got some odds & ends from me and I have followed him ever since.
Those wheels are on the truck!
Matt, this format is awesome ! The Matt and Matt show was very enjoyable.
Haha glad you liked it!
Thank you Matt and Matt for sharing the history and thrill of knowing others interested in the kind of stuff !

Hey Matt I got your reason for liking old hot rods is, Reincarnation !
I like the background sounds😂
He’s in the middle of nowhere that’s for sure!
Hi! My name is Lee, and I have a question.
DOES MATT STILL HAVE THAT TEMPEST?!?
I'm the son of the guy he bought it from!
Great discussion. Great stories. Inspirational.
Does the shop frog have a name?
Haha it should!
Dig it man... If you ever get down to Houston hit me up. Just a guy building his own stuff in a 2 car garage here...
Sounds like Matt worked for Bill Pierre.
University Ford, closed it down when they sold it. Best job ever. (owned by Pierre), then went to Olympic Lincoln Mercury and was there when it sold to Jack Carroll, then Harris Ford in Lynnwood.
I've always been into old cars but they are hard to find here in Kansas ! Because most of them that was here was picked up from people from the East and West !
Nice Presentation.
Would love to have you guys down here, my door is always open

Question..is banger a 4cyl hopped up?
Nickname for a 4cylinder
Chopped, channeled, dropped? Consider popular prewars have long locomotive front ends, sedan 4 and 6 cylinder cars really need stubby front ends extended.

Would like to contact Seattle speed shop…I live in mill creek
You guys sitting next to a pond ?
Deep in the woods!
