  2. Human Fly -

    Cool video! ... thanks for sharing!

    I must say that Ben lowsquire Thomas' Deuce Roadster is the epitome of BITCHIN'!

    ... but I've gotta ask, how come all you Aussie's talk so funny? ... use strange terms (e.g., "B Model" vs. "Model B" & "A Model" vs. "Model A")? ... and mount your steering wheels on the wrong side? :rolleyes: :D

    even I was suprised how strong my accent sounded! these guys filmed this yesterday. edited it overnight, published this afternoon. great job.
     

  5. just watched this elsewhere. great production.
     
  6. Great video, it's even better considering that they edited it so fast but still produced a quality video. I agree with Todd (Hemi32) your roadster is Bitchin' Ben! I look forward to seeing how that pickup turns out too.
     
  7. Killer vid BT - they did a great job !!

    See ya on Sat !!

    Thanks guys, the crew that produced this are planning to come back and do a more in depth look at the Larry Monreal pick-up as it progresses. Im busy assembling the columbia rear end for it today, you can see it blown apart on the workbench in the film.
    Its wierd as hell to watch yourself on screen..I really didnt think I talked like that!
     
  13. I had a very small part in the original "Rancho Deluxe" movie, that had Jeff Bridges, and Sam Waterston, in it, as two modern-day cattle thieves, at the Wrangler Bar in Livingston, MT.

    Very cool vid. Have to call in one day for a coffee
     
  23. And the film was the same way...!!!

    Thanks for sharing!!!
     
  24. Not a bad effort for a days work and no budget hey Ben.

  25. Hey Ben, I looked at the video and would have liked to have had a good look at it but for some reason it was all jumpy. Maybe it's my old vintage computer. Had the privilege of meeting this chap a while back when he was in the states. Nice fellow for sure. Took him for a short ride in my rpu to a local hotrod shop. It was fun. Your welcome back to Tucson anytime.
    Ben, your shop and roadster look amazing! Cheers, Dale
     
  26. Great film & I love the well laid out workshop with plenty of room. I did spy the columbia - I assumed it was for the PU.

    Hi Dale! Thanks man..good to be watching you 5window coming together.
    try turning the HD off maybe? try it again at an off peak time, it'll load better.
    Thanks again for showing me around and the hospitality in Tuscon! Im sure we will meet again.

    clearances all set up on the columbia, not much harder than a Banjo, just more steps to bolt up and pull down..4 times!
    The paper gaskets are almost identical to what it had..thats reassuring.

    Glad everyone likes the Video, hope the guys at Bandit Films get lots of exposure with it..its been re-blogged all over the place!
