Already saw it (;

 

Here's a shot I took at this years Lonestar Roundup,

 

Here is that same '58 Buick some time in the late 80's or early 90's.
This car became the poster car for a early 1990's Hot August Nights car show in Reno, NV.

 

yeah but you havent seen it cleared... or in the sun!

-Juan

 

true... can't wait man it's gonna look fantastic

 

I remember that car. I think I like it better with the roof, anyone got any better recent photos?

 

Thanks for the pics Deadender60, my family lived next to Rod before I was born (I was raised in Prunedale), but I got to meet Rod and check out his shop. Is Rod a member here?

 

You mean Prunetuckey? haha.. Rod is a member here... he came into my work today and I asked him to post and answer questions in this thread... So I think he will when he gets a chance...

Bringing this one back to the top... So some of the guys reading Ryan's interview see more of Rod's work

man, he friggin rules!!!!!!!!!!

 

bump

 

nicest man around .....

 

just saw this thread, and thought I would jump start it again, here's a tank that Rod laid the pattern down on and I painted.

 

Some of the work he doesnt get much credit for is all the time and effort he spent helping a lot of younger guys who think the world of him. I know a few of them but there must have been a bunch and all that I have met were super guys.

 

He did the pinstriping on the front of this 1957 BMW Isetta drag car I own...

 

Great thread to start Tommy!!!!.........3 years ago? haha
