I'm also confident that you'll be able to pick this one apart since obviously the guy isn't driving it right. ;)

Alum flywheel. High RPM @ idle, noisy under hood, lifters? That's how a street rod should sound though. As much or more sound pinging through the headers as is coming from the tail pipe.

Sounds nice....looks like plenty of ponies...discs on all 4 wheels...but he SHOULD have retained the brake booster.... it's going to take one heavy foot on the brakes to stop that 5000 lb. sled!!

Low profile racing tires have been around for years. They perform very very well. The vehicle in the video has them done correctly but I guess if you're old, grumpy and set in your ways you wouldn't know that.:wall::muhahaha:

I'll stand with the barkeep on the tires: They make sense on a performance car. I tend to agree with Geo about the wheels, however; they have a cheesy look to them. Too low-rider chromey-shiney.

Hello.

Look at Where he was driving it, California in a Residential area, and it is a Customers car.
Racing in California on a public street can lead to a felony charge, and in a residential area, and with a video camera?

And if you were to drop your wallet, be sure to kick it outside the door before you bend over to pick it up.
