You guys do great work. But every single aesthetic change done to this car has been utterly atrocious. Godzilla swapped and bagged? It could have been a work of art had it been left at that. Leaving the bumpers alone and simply tucking them? Even better! But this thing, good lord! It looks like someone played finger roulette and built a car with the performance aisle of an autozone and a JC Whitney catalog..

Better… but the stock grill still looks soooo much better.

I love everything yall did witht the car, but my jaw dropped when i heard you say wrapped.

That car is far gone.

Damn, wrapping this should be a crime

Custom grilles are hard to get right, simpler and understated is often better.

i love this build. The donorcar was already fabulous, this one is personalized. I still dont see this Grill. It looks like a botched 80's mad max grill inside a splendid mean lookin g MF-er.

I love everything about this rig keep it up boys!

We're getting it back from the body shop soon so we can keep rolling on this one!

I would say that I don't want my Lincoln to look like that but everyone has their own style. I'm sure back in the day lots of people didn't agree with the way custom cars were being modified but look at the legends that were created. You guys are doing a fantastic job of making the owners dream a reality and the work is spot on as always. This Lincoln brought me to the channel and I'm glad it did!

Once this thing comes back from the body shop we should be having a ton of more episodes for you! We really appreciate the support. And you're right. Who knows how many builds back in the golden era of hotrods were written off before the iconic style was developed. We're just trying to break the mold and do something different while keeping the customer happy!

@@SalvagetoSavage I just love how you guys do things that I feel like I could do also, and am doing, without all the hype and fancy tools. Not to be discounting the fact that you guys are hugely talented, motivated, ambitious and imaginative problem solvers. Love watching all of your builds. Keep up the great work!!

that car went from such a cool idea....to dog shit! im sure its the customers choices not yours but man...what a shame

Love all of this, but man those seats don't work. Cheapens the whole look imo. But hey it's not for me so as long as the owner is happy. Would love a continental 1 day.

Looks great guys.

I like that grill a lot better. No shame in being 'wrong', I'm wrong all the time, you'd think I'd be used to it by now!

The trunk vent louvers are pointing 180degrees in the wrong direction. Pretty cool design overall, though.

@thesinwagin

Ай бұрын

For sure. The louvers shouldn't be "grabbing" the air, trying to stuff cold air in.. They should be the other way to pull the heated air OUT.

It's takes a LOT of effort to make such a classy/beautiful car look this disgusting. So, congratulations I guess? The fact it's getting wrapped fits in perfectly with all the other design choices.

Agree. I can picture the exact kind of person who would make these choices on a car like this. Gaudy.

This car turned out better than I initially thought. Getting rid of that grid helped, I guess

That grill looks much better 🔥 I didn’t hate the last one but this one is perfect. Can’t wait to see it after it’s wrapped!

I enjoy watching all your hard work, but every time I see a car, that’s a high end build with some “Custom Grille”, they feel dated way too quickly. Not a fan of it.

Can’t buy taste. It’s hideous.

Hopefully those rear grilles will do their job and properly ventilate the exhaust compartment. Everything else looks great to me!

I can see the " Ant hill mob" driving that...😅

So, we're just NOT gonna take some time to focus on Dave's SWEET mustache???? 🥸

Love this build. Glad to.see you got rid of the "nifty fifties" grill. It just didn't fit the car. And I still say your louver vents are facing the wrong way.

Great job, Andrew, David and Mike!! Cool grille, kinda a cross between The Car and Black Beauty from the ‘60’s Green Hornet TV show. How cool can you get? Kato?

The grill is some Home Depot toilet door venting mesh? The headlights are simply unspeakable ugly… 😢

💪👊👏

Nice work. I noticed that the louvers in the trunk lid haven't changed. I still think that the openings are facing in the wrong direction. Also wrapping the car is a really poor decision by your client.

You can’t anodize steel bud, aluminum is the only anodizable product.

Why not fashion the hood after the mitsusbisi eclipse hood ?

Strike 2 on the grill. The obs headlights just don't work in my opinion. I really wish the owner stayed with the original grill. I'm all for tweaking the cars styling in subtle tasteful ways but when you start with such a beautifully originally styled car to begin with, going this radical is going to get a lot of mixed opinion.

It will all look a lot more congruent when everything is matched with a similar color scheme

Who spends that kind of money on custom (ugly as hell) fab then wraps the car hahahah 😂😂😂😂 that second grill is nearly as horrific as the first attempt

All that over the top fab work and then say f…it and mount the throttle cable on top of the intake that sticks out the hood…

How would you mount the throttle cable?

@user-pz7hr7iw4j

Ай бұрын

You guys are mad fabricators, make some mechanical linkage with maybe some small heim joints to drop below throttle body over to driver side then cable to pedal below hood , or is throttle body able to be flipped? Putting cable on drivers side and lower. I understand that the customer gets what the customer wants but seeing the cable on top like that really bums me out..

wrap? damn...🤢

Wrap instead of paint? All that time invested and you cut corners

Fantastic work as always but customer has terrible taste and style this is the ugliest Lincoln Continental I have ever seen

🤮🤮🤮

Godzilla swapped and bagged was ok, everything else, not so much. The rest of the mods ruined this car.

After this car leaves ... its going to ... Ripley's Believe It or Not!...😢💀🫡🫡
