Roadster Shop in my opinion is building the highest quality and best driving hotrod on the planet, consistently. Not a one off that you roll into the show. These guys are deploying high levels of creativity, knowledge and technology to make dreams come true. It's been fun to watch their evolution from putting out nice cars to elite levels of production. Hard work always pays off
@@RoadsterShop How do you determine Spec vs FastTrack chassis? is it the horsepower? just personal preference from the client? If I want to build a manual FBMustang 65 750HP at the crank (don't care how much goes to the wheels), not interested into racetrack: is fastrack chassis an overkill ?
@@richardbarthelemy4431 primarily budget and intended use - if you are solely driving on the street but want upgraded road manners and handling, SPEC would be the pick - if you want ultimate road handling (IRS options etc) and may also want to take the car to a track/roadrace/autoX then FAST TRACK might be your best bet.
For your edification, I had a '69 charger with a 440 bored out, healthy cam and a weiand 2/4 tunnel ram with 2 Holley double pumpers on it. Had the chain the motor down. Reversed the pattern on the torque flight ( so not as to slap it into reverse by accident). I didn't put a $100 bill on the dash, but put a $20 ( back then, that WAS money). Had tons of people try to grab the money, but nobody ever did ( including my dad). And yes-, I speak with a southern " accent". For what it's worth, many of the contestants refused to ride in the car after that, including dad.
And I gotta agree with the under hood appearance and especially the orange piping... I seen it when you uploaded the pictures during the build on your site along with the "fuelie" type top hat and I was just like _YESSSSSSS!!!!_ 😍 That was, whoever thought of that, needs an F'ing raise, because that "look" is absolutely stunning... anyone who's turbocharging anything from the 70s back should absolutely be saying "you know what you did to that 57? I want THAT!" it's perfection, seriously, absolutely stunning execution 👌🏻
Brother has a 63 corvette roadster. Its been in his garage for nearly 30+ yrs in pcs. 327 p.g with power steering. Would be a perfect project for roadster shop
I'm a '55 Chevy guy, especially the '55 Nomad (God I wish I had the money to source one and bring it to you guys, that, a '62 Bel Air Bubble 409, and a '72 C10 GMC)...but this thing is absolutely sick.... exactly how I'd want my truck built, wide, low, dog ringed T56 4spd with a SME SML 427 TT on billet paint matched patina "steelies" 20x12 on 315's squared and AWD and some custom "stock appearing" interior with some Bride Histrix low back seats 👌🏻
AWESOME CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!! As a machinist for the past 30 years that throttle body is bitchin!! To all those boost experts on the Gram have never owned a built turbo diesel to know exactly what boost is. LOL! Love your builds!!!
Hey, that the same car & color combo my Dad use to own when I was a kid except it was a four door, not two. I remember when the car sat in the front yard for many years until my Dad sold it to someone unknown. The car did have an original V8 in it. It was an automatic til the tranny gave out. So my Dad swapped it for a manual floor four speed. As I got older & in highschool, I wished my Dad gave me the car so I can own it & maybe get it running again. To this day, I really missed the car.
The rotten banana tri five was much better represented by DD Speedshop. Not as fast, not as nice, built by one dude in his 2 car garage. But it was built out of two cars, one brown and one yellow. It was awesome. Different awesome from this one.
Plenty of trans shops build T56 Magnums to hold tons of power, Tick, GeForce, Grannas, Bowler ECT.....Tick doesn't even give a HP or TQ rating, they just say "if you make over 1200hp, pick this one, we guarantee it". Anything from close ratio T56s, to stock ratio T56s, to 4spd T56s, to sequential and face plated and dog ringed T56s, pick your poison and ratio packs and enjoy.... there's another company who builds billet AWD and 4WD adapter cases for them as well, so you can build a nasty 1500hp turbo LS, with say, a sequential T56, with AWD, and throw it in an old S10 Blazer or Jimmy or Bravada and have yourself a disgusting Typhoon like creature with a manual that nobody is going to touch on the streets 😅
Really nice car, Great Video. Myself I would rather have a new Power Wagon loaded out without a moonroof. It’s safer and more comfortable. But this build really is super cool 😎
You guys didn't talk about the engine spec. Is it an OEM cast iron or a LS block? What's the displacement? Hyd. or solid lifters & who made the cam? Thanks.
Moi pour plus de sureter je la fait 4x4 big frein wuilwood apres je la fait bie turbo charger ou tout peux etre deconnecter les turbo le chargers ou tout peux etre connecter les kit nos nitro y aurait tout se qui permet d etre la plus rapide sur 400 m personne ne pourrait la battre elle serait la P1 ❤😮
just curious... if you say 1st and 2nd gear are pretty much worthless... why not go to a higher rear end gear, rather than steep? 3rd gear is probably getting close to 1:1... tranny wise... so, if you back off on the rear gears... there wouldn't be as much gear multiplication... as I said...just curious?
I really hope you're not putting that leather and polished steering wheel on the car... the stock appearing wheel looks so much better... and those who have driven older cars know, the thin rim is where it's at, and it looks right in the car
Right...if you going to get 8 pistons doing that crazy horse power.. What could you do with 12.. And no modern stuff... like... stick a jet engine up.its ass😊
what an epic car but god why did it have to be the ugly shoebox. everything is so weapons grade, the vintage expirimental theme is so kick-ass , steelies and the full but off the shelf top notch R.S. chassis the only thing that to me isnt perfect is its not a 5 or 6. other than that small tidbit which id even happily overlook this is just about as cool as the GN and it doesnt get more badass than that. outstanding job gents!! cheers
Je serait mieux en amerique ❤😂 aux moin la bha on peux faire se qu on veux sans que personnes ne puisse pourrir la vie d un autre les sorciere sont encore la 😢
C est parce que on aime pas entendre les turbo qu on ne veux pas ameliorer alors si tu ne veux pas du turbo invente un systheme qui eteind les 2 turbo est tu retourne au just v8 big bloc ❤😂
Officially no longer impressed by the amount of horsepower. Every wrench monkey's figured out how to keep increasing it. Meanwhile....the camera car in front seems to keep staying out in front when he floors it. Hmmmmm.
@@Hotrodclassic lol, is that the best insult you could come up with?? I was making a comment about the current meme’s about Tesla owners bragging about.. Obviously, I’m interested in the 57 and all the great work coming out of the Roadster Shop. Why else would I be watching the video?? They make chassis for potential track duty. I made a great comment to troll powder puffs.

@@RoadsterShop thanks; i'm assuming IRS can't be applied to a SPEC Chassis?
@@richardbarthelemy4431 Correct - FAST TRACK only - give us a call any time and we can go over your options.
Man, this is fantastic. Kudos to whoever spec'd it with a manual transmission ❤
Another killer build from R.S., you nailed this one👌
This is just ideal. FAST TRACK chassis is a game changer, inspires dreams like this to come true. Such a cool build.

😮 I had the same experience in a 70 SS Nova. With a very well put together 409 , Nothing would come close, And no one wanted a second Ride. 🤣🤣🤣😉🚬
No one asked
Literally no one asked
The car could never scare me … ! Only the driver bud..! 😮🙅🏻♂️🫣😂
I had a tandem bicycle and had the same experience. I dont have a southern accent, but I know where it is.

Im sitting here giggling right along with you guys. What an awesome car.
🤘🤘🤘🤘
The duct work is a great addition. Reminds me of a 68 442, or the old Ram Air Thunderbolts.
The more I see this car...the more I think it's one of the baddest cars on the planet! Just my style! ❤
Tri 5’s have always been hot, but they seem to be gaining in popularity again. Pretty sweet car!!
I love how the guys literally get sucked in to the seats! 🤣 Another killer build from RS...
Cool car. Impressive build. Nice to see good seat belts.
Thanks for another great video. Another unique car. I very much appreciate leaving the body in factory dimensions
Brother has a 63 corvette roadster.
Its been in his garage for nearly 30+ yrs in pcs.
327 p.g with power steering. Would be a perfect project for roadster shop
Best custom car shop in the Whole WORLD no 1 can beat there style

Beautiful build! Looks and SOUNDS GREAT!
Love the bench seat
AWESOME CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!! As a machinist for the past 30 years that throttle body is bitchin!! To all those boost experts on the Gram have never owned a built turbo diesel to know exactly what boost is. LOL! Love your builds!!!
I'd like to see that thing regeared and hit the Texas mile ! 200 mph+. patina 57 hard top just rippin ! 👍🏻👌🏻🤘🏻
Simple and clean
Love watching your videos, this car is one of the best so far!
I what to go for a ride..... love that car........ Beautiful...... from Mr G ......
Great video beautiful car Roadster shop 2025😊
Love the orange tubing covers! Definitely period correct!

My new favorite ❤️🇺🇸👌
I want to duplicate this with mine. It's perfect
Awesome build.
Absolute beast.......Beautiful.

Hell yeah🦅🦅............. Greetings from india🇮🇳🤠🤠🤩🤩🤘🏻🙌
Sick!
TRS alllways nocks It out the Park, this is one mean machine
That is bad Ass. Would to have that in a 55 Chevy
Under that shell is amazing looking.
BBA = BAD ASS BEL AIR Freaking Cool !
So cool you boys rock !
Excellent looking Cheve
Soon as that clutch gets pushed in is when I would grab that $100 bill 😅
smile says it all !
That is one siiiiccckkk siiiiccckkk ride 😮
It’s Very different. #%. I really like this
The stance and the rims you put on cars are the best in the biz. Otherwise this car looks goofy with regular rims and tires.
Because I have 2 project cars I’m gonna give the “treatment”….i gotta ask what a build like this costs.

Twin turbo is king.
Love the car. It’s a Firebird Formula steering wheel not Trans Am. I always wondered why it was originally named that.
Badass!!!
🍌 Very cool car!!!!! 🍌
Eggplant emoji.
That is all 🙌🏻
Beast!!!
"Nucking Futs!"
Would be totally amazing with a ZF8HP controlled by TurboLamik with full CAN integration with the Holley Dominator.
I’m good with shits and gets and I live in AL and was born in TN!!! Lol
Smiles for miles
Love the dog dish caps. Tell us about that god damn trans that handles that kinda oofda

Killa build,
Hurst doesn't make a straight line shifter any longer ?
That sound
My gawd fellers❤❤❤❤❤❤🇺🇸💪🏻👍🏻
I didn’t see the window flippers on the car above the door. Were they removed or are they just not visible ?
Really nice car, Great Video. Myself I would rather have a new Power Wagon loaded out without a moonroof. It’s safer and more comfortable. But this build really is super cool 😎
Man you guys need some FlowMaster exhaust on that
Amazing!!! What transmission is in it?
You guys didn't talk about the engine spec. Is it an OEM cast iron or a LS block? What's the displacement? Hyd. or solid lifters & who made the cam? Thanks.
F…k yeah 57 Chevy nice
🏁🏁🏁
Si on l invente pas le big bloc superchageur kit nos nitro c est la voiture que personne ne peux attraper parce que trop rapide ❤😂
What is the difference in acceleration between twin turbos and a Whipple supercharger?
nice daily driver....
Gran Turismo 7 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Sweeet!
I just had to get my tongue off the ground, this is sweet as CaNdY 🍬👌
i like headrests in my car.
Cool story.
@@RoadsterShop True story.
That’s what I’m talking about thanks for not cutting that hood
must be open headers, most turbo cars are much quieter …Turbos shut them up…Mine just whispers
Ummmm?
Moi pour plus de sureter je la fait 4x4 big frein wuilwood apres je la fait bie turbo charger ou tout peux etre deconnecter les turbo le chargers ou tout peux etre connecter les kit nos nitro y aurait tout se qui permet d etre la plus rapide sur 400 m personne ne pourrait la battre elle serait la P1 ❤😮

To me 500hp to 750hp is insane 😮 1300 HP means that we start talking rockets and spaceX 😂
Amazing work from RoadsterShop as always 🫡
I would love to have it but...I n now it's $$$$$$...
J ai essayer le max c est 800 ch est de la j ai compris ce que sa procurait ❤😮
Not another LS please.
1300hp, rollcage but no headrests, hmm
Right????
Yeah, that’s scary
WELL CAN ALWAYS BE ADDED…😮 AT LEAST THEY DRIVE THE BEAST AND HAVE SHOULDER HARNESS SET -UP..!
I really hope you're not putting that leather and polished steering wheel on the car... the stock appearing wheel looks so much better... and those who have driven older cars know, the thin rim is where it's at, and it looks right in the car

That’s fast until a Tesla drives past it. Personally, I would rather rev-out 600hp on a track than trying to navigate 1300 in a straight line.
Looks pretty drivable to me. They were carrying on a conversation the whole time. To each his own I guess, I Fkn love it.🇺🇸
