i used to have a 1987 Buick Grand National i used to daily drive for 10 years in Indiana in the elements including the snow. I sold it when it reached 232,000 miles. I used to get yelled at for driving it in bad weather and i had other vehicles i could have driven.I loved the car so much i couldnt stop driving it,collectors item or not. I still got 4000 more than i paid for it even with the 200,000 additional miles. Cars are meat to be driven.
Beautiful work & craftsmanship! This is a car channel, to be watched for the automotive content, not drool over the host. I can enjoy the cars w/o worrying about the host's looks. She's enthusiastic and respectful (notice her hands behind her back as she looks over the cars?), I can appreciate that.
I see this on Netflix and get Blown Away. OMG.......I had to youtube just so i could say, HOW FREAKING BEAUTIFUL, the Car is the best of the best, PERIOD!!! I love your story of success, so cool.
I saw this exact car in the Goodguys Columbus Show in Ohio, and it is nothing like it is in this video. You have to see it in person to truly capture its beauty. Truly astounding.
Absolutely stunning car that almost scares me when I think about whats next from this shop.Elana,you look stunning as well and I am glad you are becoming more comfortable in front of the camera.
I believe that its all the little details that make it so cool, certainly worthy of the award. I'm impressed that they drive it around though, over gravel and grass and well. I don't think I could do that with such an immaculate car.
Elana Nice yet again to see something different. Love the 40 ford! It would be great if you did a follow up on their other projects. Love your show Dave
I HAVE seen this car going down the road,got pictures to prove it.I talked to Andy in Columbus last year @ GG event.SUPER nice guy.As soon as I hit the lottery he's getting my 64' Belair.Bob Thrash even owned a twin to my 64' at one time.
I agree with you 100%. I have a car that is being built at Hot Rods by Dean. It will be debuted in Pomona. For the first year it will not be driven, while it is on tour. After that it will be driven by the open course events and the Silver State classic open road race in Nevada. I will never sell the car. But it will definitely be driven as much as possible. I do you own a car that is essentially a model. Because it is a 1968 Super Stock Hemi Barracuda. It is used for drag racing.
Less is definitely more! I´m not "into" cars like these, but the attention to details are just astonishing and makes the car beautiful. Enjoy your car and keep up the good work!
I'm a bit surprised the guy who did the wiring got no mention, Jared Zimmerman. He left his own show ("Car Fix" with Lou Santiago, the original "Muscle Car" host) to do that tedious task, & CF's episode 16 (3/30/13) is mostly devoted to that bit & an awesome tour of some other details, like the machined bolt heads, all of 'em unique to this ride! Amazing work, & a LOT of it. Congrats to all involved in creating this beauty, just wish they'd floored that flathead in this vid, just once!!! :\
Around $15k+, *if* you could get a bit of Charlie Hutton's time AND have most of the prep work (filler, sanding, primer, sanding, more sanding, etc.) already done, so all Charlie would have to do is inspect it to be certain it's right, then spray & sand, spray & sand, then spray & polish, for days... Also, depends on the type of paint you want, some of it is also very costly.
huh.. a town.. i live in.. better not see this beast on the street ( 0:52 ). Glad to see that i live literally about an hour away from this guy.. Good Job :) i liked it
Awesome job and well done on the award. Its sad people can't look at a car and appreciate what has been done to it even if its not to there liking. To me there not car people at all. All there able to do is sit there and bag it out but have no chance of doing anything close to it
Maybe you should get out of the cab that John Deere more often. After all, now that you have GPS, can't you just program it to run and go down the road for lunch?
It is always so inspiring to see an amazing team , fueled by passion and talent rather than ego and money .

Really nice car. I dig the shape that it has.
Those wheels do so much for the overall look of this car
Gorgeous Car, just amazing, thanks for keep the flathy...long live to the flathead!
The most gorgeous 40 I've ever seen. This car is smooooth.

Really wanted to hear more of the engine.

Love your show
Dave
Great car and unbelievable even to think about driving it on the street. But that would be the way I would want it.
Well done to the builder genuine guy.
Beautiful 40! I used to be not into them, more of a 32/34 guy but damn is this one nice!

I would give anything to create or help build pieces of art like this for the rest of my life
this car is so damned beautiful!
I think I got pictures of this car, at the Goodguys car show at Del Mar this year. Those wheels were amazing!
Awesome video Elana, love the old school rides at the end
1940 Ford is the prettiest one Henry ever made love the shape of that car
No way!!! I live in Omaha and I've never even heard of this guy. I'll have to check it out. :D
A Riddler winner on gravel!!!??? Now he's got cojones!!! Congrats on a great build guys.
Congratulation Ron at CAL!
Dope that he actually drives it
I've never paid any attention to the Ridler rides, but this one is danged awesome, and then some.
Looks stunning.
thanks! exactly my thoughts
Gorgeous car. Definitely see the "Troy" roots. And thumbs up for Shop Dog.

Exactly right what I would build 👌 👏
Awesome Car Congrats I want to learn everything about this Trade
And its a flat head on top of that.
Looks amazing
The other contenders for the Ridler Award looked amazing. Must have been a very close competition
Honestly, that year hands down the 40 was the winner. It is an amazingly well done car.
What a beautiful car... Awesome
I wanna see more of the projects
absolutely, I agree with you 100%
wow, car is clean AF. all to the very small details.
I live 2 minutes from Bennington and have never see this place!
Love that windshield
so the road kill guys going to be in pierce Nebraska in September to that massive new old stock, car auction i hope i see you there

Very impressive
What a cool looking car
beautiful
Good for you...
OMG, those dogs are soooo cute!
I guess no seat belts because you wouldn't want to go on living after crashing such a car.
beautiful car, just don't look inside. It's like a can of butterscotch pudding exploded.
So glad this awesome rod didnt have a shitbox Chev motor in it !
Saw it at GOODGUYS Columbus
I would love one of these but they are expensive!!
This is super cool car
Pure beautiful
Omg this car is beautiful.
Paint job on the engine reminds me of the Iron Man armor from the first movie
"see it driving by"? Are you gonna fly it to Europe? ;P
Awesome looking showcar, and like a showcar should (imho), it drives!
The fact that the tuner guy uses a lenovo shows that hes legit!
very beautiful
Very Cool.
What is your opinion on F1 cars? NASCAR? Track day cars?
Air intake looked like Orson Welles "War of the Worlds" alien.
good for you 2
I adore those freakin wheels man!
Very nice
huh.. a town.. i live in.. better not see this beast on the street ( 0:52 ). Glad to see that i live literally about an hour away from this guy.. Good Job :) i liked it
Amazing🤩🤩
To shoot paint, just point a gun, not much.
The prep work? Couple of grand plus. Prep work is where good paints lives and dies.
Drive it on the road? It's got no plates, must be no 🚔 in Nebraska. Exceptional build, must be enough original parts left over to build another 40.
Hated this car at first but came to liking it....if only is was a little higher?
good for you 3
Cool
How much is it to get a car painted like that?
Another Great vid just one flaw with how you pronounced the make of the Ferret its pronounced Dayme-ler not Dime-ler other than that its all good
I live near him! :D
This dude looks like Steve Kerr.
Awesome job and well done on the award.
Its sad people can't look at a car and appreciate what has been done to it even if its not to there liking. To me there not car people at all. All there able to do is sit there and bag it out but have no chance of doing anything close to it
I'm 14 and live in a neighborhood.
Where is Bennington Nebraska because I will drive my truck there right now
+chevyboy296 in Nebraska. lol :)
+falloutboy well no shit but where at in NE
Why do Ridler cars see no street miles? Doesn't that defeat the object of a hot rod, having a fast car you can use daily?
I thought flathead only applied to Harley V-twins
a mazda cx-90 made love to efijy
Maybe you should get out of the cab that John Deere more often. After all, now that you have GPS, can't you just program it to run and go down the road for lunch?
Dear Santa...
The laws do not require seat belts on any car pre-1964--
just tellin ya so ya know---
I'm so glad they didn't skin the dog for car covers!
Is that your Dad's big John Deere? It looks pretty huge and costly.
