The Legendary Rad Rides by Troy Hand Built Custom '29 Ford Model A Hot Rod

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

This is the 4th episode of our Midwest Road Tour and it sure was a special shoot for all of us on the team. Spending the day with Troy Trepanier and learning why every builder I know says "Troy is the best" was one of the best days in my automotive career. The artistry along with sheer mechanical genius gives you the builds that only Troy and his team could build. This 1929 Model A Tudor is truly one of the finest builds I've ever experienced in every way possible so sit back and enjoy the ride...

    I watch A LOT of auto content. From F1 on Netflix to Bad Chad and everything in between. I have to say this Autotopia LA Western tour is just about my most favorite series I’ve seen in 40+ years. It’s just the kind of rides I like the most presented just exactly the right way. So thank you thank you thank you! So this latest review. Whoa. The design, engineering, build quality, and artistry is just freaking mind bending. Good gracious what I wouldn’t give to personally see it. The vicariousness will have to do for now. Stoked!!

    Troy is the cat's meow. Humble as you can imagine. He is one of THE best car builders in the world. If you haven't been to a Goodguys and seen his cars in person - I highly suggest going to spend 30-45 min just staring at his cars in person. There are things that you might not see anywhere else. I've been following him many years. They are selling parts and cool items on their website too. Bolts and cool clamps.

    The most poignant statement I’ve ever heard about creating a clean looking build is “The cleaner the look and the lines the longer it takes to build. If it’s going to be genuinely functional, you can automatically double that time to create a finished build. And that is for the talented and experienced craftsman.” This car exemplifies that statement. But the coolest part of all is this thing gets driven REAL distances often. Very cool. 👍🏻😎👍🏻
