  • This year for Wheels of Time, we are going to be bringing Mike's Crapiolet as our in progress project. Before we can bring it to the show, it needs to run and drive. Mike has a ton of work to do before we can load it into the trailer!!

    Driving a car you have built is Possibly the best feeling in the world after seeing your first child born. Congratulations Mike.

    What an achievement to actually see the ‘34 running and driving. It has come a long way from being a bunch of unattached body parts and a frame to a complete car. Your hard work and determination have paid dividends. I love the sound of that engine. Looking forward to seeing the finished product.

    Brilliant! When I think back to seeing Mike bring a pile of broken looking panels out of his garage and place them together, it just shows what's possible because, you know what, it IS a CAR now. Well done, Mike.

    Really enjoyed this video of getting the fabriolet running! Like Mike, I also built an AV8 by not starting with an old car but just a collection of old junk Ford parts. Lots more work and time but still lots of fun with many highlights like this along the way. Big congrats to you Mike and also Matt and Steve! Great job all, and thanks for all the videos!

  • @apexmetalrestoration2805

    You guys sure punched in a ton of work in a single day. Great job! I think that just speaks to how often you guys build these.
    I’m 2 years into my model a hot rod build 😅 just set the Vega box and steering rods in yesterday.

  • @garycook2355
    @garycook2355 Рік тому

    When I first saw the car on the frame machine I thought "what a heap" but you have made amazing progress toward turning it into a righteous hot rod that runs and drives. I am an old fart and a rod that isn't finished (ie painted) is only half done. Being old school I ain't into these "rat rods" to me they just show me someone to lazy to finish the job.😎👍
