    Nice and it works great when you turn the sound off. It was fun seeing what you did to the car step by step like that.

    Awesome, I'm not sure why someone would turn the sound off though.

    best 3 minutes I've spent in a long time. Nice job.

    i'll give you $10k/hr if you can finish the rest of my build in 3 minutes.

    Probably the most authentic hot rod I've ever seen. If I didn't know that Andy built this car last year I'd swear that it was in the Montgomery books. Thanks dude!!!!

    HAH!! You ain't foolin me. I bet it took more like 3 weeks including gathering up parts.

    That is a slick roadster though. Looks it rolled through the Twilight Zone straight out of the late 40's. Is that Twilight Zone thing how ya got 'er done in 3 min.?

    What a fraud! Three minutes indeed it was clearly over three and a half! What a great video and good workmanship what was the real time line?

    Thanks fellas, I got a kick out of putting it together. The first pic in the video was from Oct 09 when I started on it, thrashed all winter and I had it registered and on the road in late April 10. I've put about 7k on it since then, looking forward to racking up a few more miles this spring!
