Classic cars, old school hot rods, cool stuff i what i like to film, real sounds, no gimmicks.
At first I thought it was just another stupid 350 Chevy.
then I saw it was a Y-block!!!
This thing rules.
I love the sound! It's so different.
i like how it never quite runs smooth. it adds to that junkyard dog feel.
Very nice Ford in Ford perfect,Thank for showing it.
I have a couple Y-Blocks, love them.
Good looking & sounding engines
i love these rat rods! my friend and i dragged a 28-31 frame out of the woods and im supposed to be selling it but i keep contemplating building it into a rat rod
go for it dude!
Great car. I agree with Heads Up no music is A+. Might want to spend some money on glass.
All good takes, appreciate you watching 👀 Y blocks sound great in Hot Rods
Nice!
Very cool
Really was a nice rod
nice car
Finally, a Ford engine in a Model A Ford hot rod! Nothing against them but you hate seeing dozens of these cars and the words "small block Chevy" associated. Nice to see something different, this motor, a Caddy engine, a Buick Nailhead! But I like this set up a lot.
i felt same way...i kept hearing the song "hotrod Lincoln" on the radio when i was looking for an engine...i found a 69 lincoln with a 460 in it... search my build videos search Frankenstude too let me know what you think
You owe me a new keyboard.
I just drooled all over my old one.
Wow that's awesome man 👍 great video thanx for charing 👍
Thank you, great screenname. Enjoy the channel too! Doing them every week.
Oke thanx , i'm looking forwards to next videos .
Perfect name
Yes! Loved that thing
Love the pegboard windows!
Me too Wayne that car was a double winner for me
@@samspace81 I've used plexiglass a couple of times and seen other people use just about everything else but not pegboard.
Very cool. Doing a Tudor currently.
Sweet, appreciate you watching 👀
i like it..just rough enough around the edges but not junky...way cool...
My dad had a 56 ford station wagon when I was young had 312 thunder bird special in it
Nice, thanks for sharing Jeff. I appreciate your comment & viewership on the Samspace81 classic car channel :)
Amazing sound... kinda like radial engine.
i like the horn :-p A classic
She's a Bute Clark....
HAha, yah iv'e seen that video-but ill watch it again
It would not take much to turn it into a respectable looking hot rod
True I think it was pretty much there
look for video 100...thats the latest walkaround...
@@Newoldskooler video #100 was the latest video i had of my hotrod build at the time i commented...since the car is finished ua-cam.com/video/X5CedSYpmRY/v-deo.html
That thing is sweet! Ride height is perfect. Was it stepped or factory height?
Drop spindles
A+ no music
The sound of it running IS the music. ☝️
My kinda car
That was a winner for me too
Nice!!! Is that Popeye?!
A little polishing and body work n paint and you got a very nice hotrod i dont think this is a ratrod its properly built with correct parts. This is not a thrown together piece of junk, thats what ratrods are haha
👍
so is the gas tank still between the driver and engine or somewhere else
Its got a custom aircraft tank behind the driver now to my knowledge. This car was actually featured on the Discovery Channel as well!
the original a's have the gas tank in front of the driver which really isn't safe
but this brings up another question where do you put the gas nozzle for fill ups?
Kalkas53 That would be a question for the current owner. Are you out there in cyberspace? :)
not really
Kalkas53 Yeah I sold this car over a year ago. It only had a gas can in the back when I sold it, rudimentary setup. I understand that a very cool old aircraft oxygen tank was retro-fitted as a fuel tank currently. Thanks for checking it out and enjoy my channel! - Sam
Hey samspace81 I seen that you said you sold this car, but I was wondering if you knew any of the prior history, an old friend of mine (R.I.P) built a car very similar to this in 2010-2011 and it'd sure be cool if this was it. He and I live/lived in E. Texas.
P.s I found a video I took of it and this is the car %100
Milton Huff purchased it. I marketed it and made the videos in Terrell Texas for Texas Motor Toys now closed. No idea where it ended up afterwards. I'm sorry for the loss of your friend. That was a memorable car and good memories for me
Bitchin ride,love it......
How do people sit here and call this a rat rod ! Does anybody know what a rat is ? This isnt a rat its a traditional HOT ROD!!
Agreed
How much does it cost to build something "exactly" like that. it must be under $9000 right?
Who needs glass anyway! Lol. Check out my 54 Chevy sometime
Baaaaad
to the bone
replace chromes with rusty paint :-)
ZZTopp haha
I got 99 lighters on my dresser, yes sir. Thanks Jeff
that thing isn't a rat rod. it looks too well built.
👍
Peg board...wtf.
Well. For Pete's sake
Sounds like you have a vacuum leak.
Are you a millionaire?
As i tell those who say''why did you buy that rusty old shit car for''?i just tell them'''IF I WANTED A NEW CAR ILL GO BUY A NEW CAR/!i have a 13 tacoma and a 06 accord.../////////my toys are a bone stock 31 five window,and a 70 tempest,78 bandit yeah there is alot of rust,but rust f'n rules...my non runnin 57 210 wagon is a cool rust bucket to/sue me,i own a bunch of non runnin rust buckets,maybe some one can explain to me why every body wants my rust?imediatley after seein them?/
they would never let something like that on our roads now , we lost ability to build rods and customs because some clowns killed themselves in one, and the government declared them unsafe for our roads
Thanks for watching, I hear youy :(
It sounds like its bad for the environment. Have you ever thought of getting a Toyota prius?
Jk..bad as ride man
You're trying to hard.
I live my life 💯
