I'm impressed! When I first saw this build, I honestly didn't think it would look good. But now that it's coming together, I'm liking it more and more. You both do outstanding work! In Rust We Trust!
Man that Stude is sweet! I can really get a feel for the lines and size out in the driveway, Its awesome. Nice work Kerwood, thanks for sharing you two :-)
it was trash.. . the guy selling it bragged about how good it ran when he drove the car home.. but when Jim tore it down.. it had some kind of issue.. cant remember for sure but I "think" it was a spun bearing..
I hope Kerwood has petrolheads for neighbours that love the sound of open headers on a large v8. LOL It does sound nice and those housings for those tail lights look like they are made for it. Its coming along nicely.
Mmmmm, gives me goosebumps ! 😊 Makes me think of a big Grizzly bear when it's sitting there idling............ just before it attacks ! 😊 Thanks for sharing and take care. 👍

Great video presentation, all the camera angles make for a dynamic professional looking feature. The lighting was perfect also. Actually the video was done by a professional, good job! Beautiful car by the way! However IMHO, that poor old motor had a lot of its life removed without any coolant. The cylinder walls probably are blue and the rings have lost their temper. Also, without any added rpms, the cam and piston skirts had minimum lube applied. The heads may have a little twist here and there internally. I may be totally out to lunch on this observation, but my experience in buying 'dry run' eBay engines have proven otherwise. Anyway, 1963impala2dr, I am a huge fan and admire your work and life style. Great Vid!!!!!!
the engine was never allowed to get hot.. or even overly warm. I know it appears otherwise in the video but the engine was shut off for long periods of time between starts. people dont realize that I literally had hours of footage and it took me 6 hours over two days to edit it. remember we made a run to the parts store which took 40 minutes but only about 6 seconds in the video. Old Jim built racing engines for years and years. he knows the limits but you are certainly entitled to your opinion.
How are you cooling/lubing the mechanical seal in the water pump? How are the heads remaining cool ,as much as it has ran and been revved? I'm not picking on it..., I'm genuinely curious. I'm pretty sure the thermostat housing has no hose on it .I'd be scared that the heat would bring about loose valve seats due to the dissimilar metals of the heads and the seats,with no coolant
i know you're not picking on it and when I watch the video back.. I can see how it might appear to be enough run time for concern but its all done with smoke and mirrors. I had literally "hours" of footage. It took me 6 hours over a two day span to edit all that footage and condense it down to what you see here. it was never allowed to get hot. (ol Jim knows his stuff, besides... if you knew the grip with which he holds his money, you would know he would never risk damaging his $7k investment :) The cameras were off for long periods of time while we did other things between starts.. (remember we went for a trans fluid run which took 40 minutes in real time but probably 30 seconds in the video. lol ) thanks for the comment and thanks for watching.
i can tell you 2 mins of run time is to much with out cooling. when i had to drop my drive belt on my 496 8.1L to find a tapping knocking sound it would boil the colant inside in just 2mins with out the water pump turning
1963impala2dr Oh yeah it's really good video camera work all your videos are good it's like we are there right along with you at least that's how I feel your humble in the video's that's why I like to watch because you film cool stuff like from an Artist eye 👍
its all plumbed up now. temporally at least so it might make it to the saturday night cruis-in. if so, I'll post some pictures on my instagram if you want to check it out.. just go to waylonwire.com and click on instagram.. you dont have to download the app or anything..
i think im as excited as he is to see this thing on the road.. im down there every other day.. are you ready to drive it yet!! what did you get done today!! on and on.. haha
Way to go Kerwood the '27 is looking fine. That engine sounds great for a 502 BB if that isn't enough power I don't know what is lol Funny I always keep a small roll of baling wire in my truck just in case.
haha.. yeah..probably 20 to 30 people have suggested that..nobody seems to realize that the old 1927 frame would twist up like a pretzel under the 630 lbft of torque the v12 produces.. besides, I have plans for that v12! "wink" stay tuned!
I knew you boys were up to something! Lol. Those tail lights fit like they were made for it. Good job. Now he’s really gonna get the itch to finish it.!
Oh yeah, that's wut I'm talkin bout. That there rod is ready for sum burn outs. Congrats Kerwood, xln't job. That's a fine buggy you built. I'll bet when it was new it was probably parked in the same kind of garage too. It looks right at home.
Wow, that's gr8. Jus rollin er out is exciting. Rumble, rumble, rumble, rumble. Blub, blub, blub, blub. C'mon BB 502! Real good cold start!!! Hahaha, throttle? That's gr8, that's the world of rat roddin'. Rumble, rumble. Cool taillights, epic. How fun, keep up the good work. Nice video, Ken. Think he'll name it BB502. Thx, cya.
no sir.. she''s tight! Kerwood bought that 502 crate brand new and had it in his stepvan that he used for work...but most of his jobs are here in town..so that engine has very few miles on it.. he sold the van and kept the engine.. boy are we glad he did!! :)
Just Sh*t stirring Ken grin its going to be a real ripper when finished I found this last nioght but was going to wait till Part 2 to send it too you but you may as well check out the progress now It is sort of similar to what Jim is building Tony Volvo PV 444 T-55 tank V12, 38.88-l engine - Built story of a tank car - Part 1 from 2 ruclips.net/video/9tKuKwvqGnk/видео.html

It is a good question to get a rise out of you At least Ken It gets the question out of the way for you ! Have you ever Thought what your Beast would look like Painted anyway? Just curious I like it as it is And just another one Are you going to put a bonnet on it ? always wondered how the wet weather affects the Electrical system
When this is Done (atleast as done as can be in a RatRod) this is Gonna Be 0ne Tough 0l' Car...on the Street or the Car Show's too. I think it Will Win Alot of Trophy's and Alot of Win's on the Strip, too.
I like it! Long front end, wide stance, shortened cab? Chopped top. Not following the lowered trend. I’d massage those rear fenders to match the tires (looking from the rear) maybe leave an inch or so of rubber outside. Will it have a hood? What kind of wheels are planned? Man, so much potential and a great start. Thumbs up a$$hole. Lol (love the sign)
one was missing when he found this thing where it had sat in the sage brush for 30 years or more.. so he moved the firewall back to the rear doors.. Very clever way to save the beast and give it suicide doors! .. and the body lines all lined up really nice! one commenter said he ruined it when in fact.. he SAVED it!

Love it! Kinda sounds like an old tractor I drove as a kid many years ago. Love that idle.

I love how he stitched the back of the cab together looks awesome reminds me of the old red Barron hot wheels car 👍👍👍👍👍
I agree!!
Can't wait to see more I got to find a 454 for my truck
awesome. love the head light size tailights. he's gettin her done.
It has a nice sounding idle. And plenty of room in the front of the engine it reminds me of the Munster mobile. Tails lights are beautiful.
Kerwood's the Man with that Studies! Congrats! ...Newk from Kentucky
I could feel the viberation hear in Colorado....What an awesome car!!!!
Man that Stude is sweet! I can really get a feel for the lines and size out in the driveway, Its awesome. Nice work Kerwood, thanks for sharing you two :-)
I must've missed something, last I remember Jim had a old 70's smogger motor in the Studdy... Now it's got a 502! Cool beans.
it was trash.. . the guy selling it bragged about how good it ran when he drove the car home.. but when Jim tore it down.. it had some kind of issue.. cant remember for sure but I "think" it was a spun bearing..
Ken, Kerwoods 502 monster is nasty sounding. What an awesome build!
Gotta love it, bunch of guys blowing off the yard work and honey-do's to work on the rat rod!! Giddy-up
livin the dream!! haha
That old Studey just looks too cool for words!
Love the sign above the garage door
I hope Kerwood has petrolheads for neighbours that love the sound of open headers on a large v8. LOL It does sound nice and those housings for those tail lights look like they are made for it. Its coming along nicely.
Very cool to see it move under it’s on power. Have much respect for all the camera work and editing.
Totally COOL! Never thought of just moving the cowl back on a 4door. Love it !!!!!
Love how unique that thing is!
Mmmmm, gives me goosebumps ! 😊

what a magnificent looking monster ! You can tell this man's got great taste
So I can see the cab has been chopped but, has it been shortened also? The frame looks really long. Looks great though and sounds awesome.
MrBeezweez Weezy. Drivers door and b piller were missing , so removed pass door and b piller. Moved cab back 30 ins
I like the profile. It kinda gives me a top fuel dragster vibe.
Are those old Harley wheels on the front? This thing is really cool. Straight out of an Ed Roth cartoon.
no, they are old wire spoke ford wheels. thanks!
Sounds real good. Great work.
Awesome camera recording and the rod is getting there
thanks for recognizing that! I spent about 5 hours editing this video

Way to go Kerwood the '27 is looking fine. That engine sounds great for a 502 BB if that isn't enough power I don't know what is lol Funny I always keep a small roll of baling wire in my truck just in case.
i have a little roll of balin' waire in my little rockabilly tool box too! hehe
Yep that's being smart and prepared. That's what everyone should be doing if they have a lick of sense at all lol
well. i dont know if I have a lick of sense at all .. but I was raised in the Ozark mtns so ..carrying baling wire is in my blood. haha
Looking at that engine compartment makes me wonder if maybe someone's been eyeballin that V12 of yours!
right! but i have a frame that will!
I will be watching for it
I'd bet Kerwood could fit that 12 cylinder of yours nicely on that long front end. Good video & nice Rat.
haha.. yeah..probably 20 to 30 people have suggested that..nobody seems to realize that the old 1927 frame would twist up like a pretzel under the 630 lbft of torque the v12 produces.. besides, I have plans for that v12! "wink" stay tuned!
I knew you boys were up to something! Lol. Those tail lights fit like they were made for it. Good job. Now he’s really gonna get the itch to finish it.!
Good one lads. First drive is always awesome :D
Oh now I see what he's going for, it's like a stretched drag car
It reminds me of a Fiat Topolino with that skinny front end @10:20
That thing is huge buddy! Digg it big time
I like it, but i like your old truck better. Would like to see the green been or blue diamond, I like all of them.
I sold the green bean about 4 years ago.. maybe more.. BUT.. i sold it with the option of getting it back! so... dont be surprised if............
Thanks ken great job on the vidio . Kerwood
good material to work with!
Congrats to Kerwood. Must have been a great feeling :)
Just curious! Where is old Kerwood these days? You made some awesome videos with him!
I can feel the joy from here ! Congratulations looking forward to the next exciting episode !
Oh yeah, that's wut I'm talkin bout. That there rod is ready for sum burn outs. Congrats Kerwood, xln't job. That's a fine buggy you built. I'll bet when it was new it was probably parked in the same kind of garage too. It looks right at home.
I just noticed the sign on Kerwood's garage. Lol
Wow amazing. Looks and sounds good.
You guys are great 😊
Just hearing it roar to life will bring more motivation to keep a fellow keen ! Keep up the great work Jim !
I thought it was a big ass diesel truck lol this is cool tho
She sure sounds nice and throaty !!! Nice job
Lové that roar
It’s looking great.
Wow, that's gr8. Jus rollin er out is exciting. Rumble, rumble, rumble, rumble. Blub, blub, blub, blub. C'mon BB 502! Real good cold start!!! Hahaha, throttle?

Long run with a dry block, scary.
he was watching the temp.. this old boy has been around a long lonnnnng time.. he's not about to fry his $7,000 engine..
You mean the temp of the fluid that is not there?
nice i hope you get along with the neighbors
Congratulations Kerwood
Very cool! Is there a slight miss/knock I am hearing?
no knocks in that engine.. that baby is strong!!
Awesome, I wasn't sure! That is a cool rig!
no sir.. she''s tight! Kerwood bought that 502 crate brand new and had it in his stepvan that he used for work...but most of his jobs are here in town..so that engine has very few miles on it.. he sold the van and kept the engine.. boy are we glad he did!! :)

Good times and good friends. Did you buy him the sign over his garage doors? Lol
What a beauty! Looks mean and sounds mean. :D Thanks for filming! :)

Just keep letting it run and see how hot it gets without coolant! You can always get another engine when this one fails.
that sounds like a great idea
