600 hp Supercharged '57 Chevy with an Insane Fade Paint & Built to Drive

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

We've shot 3 vehicles now with Mitch and Crazy Painters and this car is simply a knockout! Anyone that knows our channel understands we rarely shoot Tri-Five era cars but this one was a no brainer. The crazy 8 stage fade paint, supercharged LS making over 600 hp on an Roadster Shop chassis and built to drive and enjoy so sit back and enjoy the ride...

    Exactly. I was trying to figure out the words to describe him and what he does. He covers even the smallest details, yet he's so hyped about this and that little detail, he talks about it like it's one of the main characteristics of the car. Other builders would either skip some of those little things, or they would actually address them but be irritated over them because they are tedious and time consuming. Foose who? Kindig who? I already want this guy to build me a car...if/when I win the lottery. 🤣🤣🤣

    This car's much more than pure eye candy (and make no mistake, it's flawless). The front end is so damned snarky with that upside down bumper he elegantly Frankensteined in there. And that's a lot of real estate to sculpt, especially that trunk lid. Mitch and his son are artistic magicians.

    Love how amped he is about his own build. There’s modest owners and there’s guys that brag about how badass their car is. He’s a bit different because he’s proud of what he created. It’s cool too how he revealed his secret for the paint job. He knows it’s not something just anyone can do even if they understand the process they have to have the experience in the execution of it. I’m a painter but I can’t call myself a Crazy Painter he definitely earned that title. Such a badass car and paint job.👍

    Nobody knows the pressure of when you go in that paint booth and you've got one shot to do it right. You have to be so focused and hope you don't get a buzz from the paint thinner and screw it up. This guy is a true artist with the paint gun.

I will also say, watching this literally had my heart fluttering. I was just sitting here wishing I could be the one lucky enough to own a car like this. The Chevy Bel Air has been my favorite classic car since I was a kid and would see them on the road occasionally. This car is an absolute masterpiece.

    Was never a big tri-5 guy, more into the 1st gen Camaros and Firebirds... BUT, the way this car was executed and the overall setup is awesome. The paintjob and body mods on this thing were done so tastefully, and the fade paint was more perfect than I have ever seen. Getting up close to fade paint you can see the different layers etc, but in all the shots I have seen online of this car, the close ups and even in this video, it was perfect. SO NICE! Awesome build. NO< NOT EVERY CAR NEEDS 900 HP. Mid to high 500s is great for a cruiser and something meant for family rides and car shows. Well DONE!

    Seen many a 57 Belair, but this Beast is the pinnacle of that Era for me. 1st time seeing, and it's all that plus much more. That Paint is nasty in the best freaky way, with that choice of trim color, totally bitching... plus the new tech stuff that makes any car push button ready for a coast to coast adventure. Always gonna be dialing in with any build, from factory to garage a shake down/test & tune.... but super easy to track down when built like this 57💪💪💪
