No wonder it one the show👍😎. So many little detail changes,it looks fantastic 👍😎. Thanks for showing, Barry and I'm glad the owner spent so much time describing it all.👍. Excellent 👍😎. Best wishes from jolly old England 👍😎Pete 🤓
Thank you Pete!! I agree, it was worth the time to go through it - Dave taught me about the original as well as his custom, so I learned at least something about both! All the best from AZ USA 👍🇺🇸🌵
I respect that it's his vehicle to do as he wishes, I also appreciate how he "improved" the original by means of most of his mods. I have never been a fan of oversized rims on vintage/classic cars. To me it just does not look right. It's the condition he found the car in that bothers me. It belonged to the sellers grandparents and he kept it garaged for 13 years. It sounds like it was a "survivor" car - admittedly one that was "tired", in need of work. I know not all cars are to be restored, nor can they. To me a mostly original, complete car should be revived as original. If you want a custom or a "resto-mod" why not start with a car less complete or needing more work? I will say the work done is flawless, quite tasteful and original. The "348 rebuild" was nicely done - it fooled me until it was explained. No doubt there was more attention to detail than mentioned. Foe example the "Vintage Air" AC system was integrated into the factory dash - I'm certain the controls are as well, being connected to the factory HVAC controls. As I started with this "rant" - it's his to do as he wishes BUT I'm also entitled to my opinion.
I will respect your opinion! For me, the funny thing is that at different stages of my life. I’ve appreciated different model years. I can’t really explain it. I once owned a 62 Bel Air and thought the 60 was the ugliest but now I kinda like it too. I’m probably weird.
@@BarryTsGarage The sixty-one is an unrefined sixty-two. No one who appreciates design would ever state that a fifty-nine is in any manner an attractive car. It is especially ugly from three quarter rear view given those hideous quasi-horizontal fins. Same for the interior of the car. Discordant lines. No aesthetic cohesion. Which goes to explain why a fifty-nine is not sought out for restoration. If you like cars that are so ugly they are interesting. The five-nine suits that paradigm well.
You know I didn’t like the 59 back in the day, I thought the fins were too over the top. But looking at this one might change tour mind, it’s a real stunner.
Beauty is subjective. It’s a good thing, the world would be super boring if everyone liked the same thing. One can like something for any reason or no reason, and tire of something and change in time.

Sure thing. I understand your opinion as well. Variety of tastes and thoughts are part of the fun of this hobby! 👍
Nope, the sixty-two is still the most attractive of the bunch. The fifty-nine is the most baroque (read ugly) of the group.
I will respect your opinion!

@@edsyphan3425 Re-read what I wrote. Articulate to me using the language of design aesthetics the why and how,
