Killer, finally I hear from somebody with the right attitude, the realistic and proper love for his passion. I get involved to some extent in lots of hot rod projects, everybody and his brother needs my help in some aspect of his project. I see too many that are in a big hurry, out of money, over budget. I never work on junk and will call a spade a spade, I turn down most of it because I haven't got the time anyway... The first thing that turns me off is a person explaining he needs to get it done so he can sell it. "Then what are you building it for? You can't sell it for what you've got into it. You're upside down, leave me out of it 'cause I don't work for free!"
My hot rods aren't for sale either. And none of them are done. Some of them aren't even driveable. One hasn't run in twenty years. So what?
I've always said if a hot rod is "done" it's owner isn't a hot rodder.

No Opels were harmed in the filming of this movie.
However two Mustangs, a Pinto, and a Capri were hospitalized.
One Mustang was euthanized the next morning.
