These two are great. Such good compatibility.
4 years later and not much has changed just the name of the show =D
HOT ROD Unlimited = Mini Roadkill!
im not the biggest american car lover but ya know, this shows what can be done with some badass cars and that car makers can actually make cars people really want! Amazing car!
We certainly wouldn't mind taking that one for a spin!
It goes without saying, but that is a beautiful automobile.
at 1:10, CLASSIC teenager face when dad screams :" get the hell outta that damned car and do your homework"!!!! , XD
Love these old Freiburger & Finnegan videos.
Damn! My brother ran one on the street - 383 with the 440 intake & plumbing and not sure what cam. Passed everything but the gas pumps ;-) Good memories for me and I wish you much luck and success.
More of these please! I love these building cars videos, gives the cars a really nice character :) I also love Hot Rod's garage and project cars, so much muscle charm!!
Just responding to the few haters.
Muscle cars are timeless. Ageless. Once produced, they will always have a following and will always be loved, cherished and driven the way they were intended.
Classic cars like this, aren't disposable razors. They are members of a family, creators of great memories, sometimes even human in their own ways.
If you don't like them, then there is always something else for you to do in the world.
People like sports. Some work in an Office. We love our cars.
id love to work with freiburger and finnegan for just one day been working on cars with my dad since i was a kid now im 22 and been certified for 8 years nothing better than a classic hotrod with a bigass motor
Stil rockin the sandels while welding ?? Bad ass ride .Have followed it forever and love it. I cruise the streets in a pump gas F1A prochargered BBC 78 Malibu with a cage .Still have all the seats so I can take the kids out too.
May I make a little comment? Thanks: That is one beautiful ride!!
Gorgeous Car!
that's how the human brain works.. same thing with school work.. you save it until the last minutes x)
@ChaosTime86 You're right. In our first dyno test, we did break the timing chain. I changed to a different cam at the same time that I fixed that, and then did a second dyno day. This was on an engine dyno, not in the car. And, again, the pass seen in the video is NOT with nitrous.
I´d like to know, what other children thought about David, if he drove Super Bee, and someone had charger (back in 1980´s)
Want to bet none of the cars in hot rod magazine are daily drivers? xD
you know you're working on an american car when: you can stand in the engine bay casually installing an intake manifold
Beauty of a car!
"Bleeding the brakes 'cause stopping's good"
11.8. Damn gooood. And for a first car. My first car was a 91 ford escort lol
Reminds me of Overhaulin'....damn...miss that show.
Ain't Nobody Got Time for That!
beautiful
صراحه ابدااااع
still a better show than Top Gear U.S.
Just a few clarifications. First, there's nothing fake here about the timing. We may have lack of planning, but we really do the all-night thrashes. The 11-second pass seen in the video was not on nitrous, it was all motor. It was slow because the trans was killing itself all the way down the track. I rolled the sprag during the burnout.
It doesn't matter if you're thin, fat, full of hair or balding. There's always something for Humans to love and enjoy doing. Instead of hating and judging others for their passions, why not go and do something you enjoy.
Most of us here love our cars. They are our pride and passion. Not everyone can agree, but the least we can do is respect one another (or avoid each other completely)
@Mangaluver321 Not true. If it has an engine and wheels, you'll probably end up seeing it here on the Motor Trend Channel. We have programs scheduled that feature turbos and sixes and Japanese cars and European cars, too. We'd love to show several programs a day, but for now just getting this schedule out is keeping us very busy for now. We're hoping you help make the Channel wildly popular, so we can hire more video producers and make more programs.
@nbigdog2000 Why would nitrous not be on a muscle car?
@JonathanRav if i remember correctly, he paid $1,500 for it. then he bought a 71 Roadrunner for $2,500 to swap the engine to the Bee and sold the Roadrunner. It's not all that suprising really. I bought my 73 AMX for $550 in 2000 (in kinda bad shape from sitting outside for 8 years). I dumped anther $800 into it and used it as my daily driver for 2 years. Around the same time I bought the AMX, i missed out on a white 71 Roadrunner for $800 in decent shape. Those deals are long gone.
You guys have nice tools.
where did you guys get your experience for building cars
Nice Channel!! Make furthure on whit this Channel.
gorgous car!
Superbee!
personaly speaking, i'm not a fan nitrous. but that stems from the 1st and only time i used it. I built a blown 350 w. nitrous for a t-bucket. they made me reuse the head gaskets even though i said it wasn't a good idea. not suprisingly it blew a head gasket on the 1st dyno run. they made then do a nitrous run after that, which killed the motor. the No 3 piston ended up getting a nice hole in it and also damaged the head. it made 250hp then 150hp. school was fun & it wasn't my money or my engine
IS IT FIXED YET? Love the Bee.
Nice garage, some of us have to make do with ones ½ that big.
wow chevyguy, flawless logic
sweet!
@MercSLRFan : this is pretty much how every car build in history works. Not just on television, lol
MOPAR FOR LIFE
@Batista7105 For more traction. In rear wheel drive cars, the back end swims around under really hard acceleration, and the fatter tires counter act that.
Less talk and more work. But seriously that was a good job on both the car and the video.
i think it gives the show its name !!! Roadekill give the show the illusion of a Disaster
i got a 91gt escort quad carbed its kick ass fun
There was an old man named Michael Finnegan
He had whiskers on his chin again
Along came the wind and blew them in again
Poor old Michael Finnegan....Begin again.
I wish there was a high demand degree in college called :"Classic Car restoration"
it feels good knowing i've helped build and tune a faster car, but who knows after he fixes it and actually uses the bottle
@CamaroAmx I still have my AMX, but it's been sitting (outside) since 2005. I'm hoping the stars align close enough to really dig into it this year (i have been doing minor stuff to it off and on since 2003).
Go Dodge!!
Mopar guys are too purist for the NoS... they want a supercharger lol.
having finnegan working with y ou its like having 2 guys working against you.... cheap shot freighburger lol
free burger sounds like jello biafra
I want the Camero on the lift.
Big rush to meet a deadline is REAL LIFE!!! How often have you set a goal, only to say "Hey, that goal is next freekin week!!!" The deadline IS the reason to get the project done, not the other way around.. Set a date, work towards that date, work hard to get er done in time.
I just want to know how much cigar was in the engine before you took it apart again...
nos killed it for me...
@goofeewalden1 It's quite slow for 900hp but don't forget how much it weights!
Um, that is the point, which is why they're usually called "challenges"...
I'm wonderin' what the story is on that F-100 on the lift in the shop? Is there a story on that somewhere? The two of you have personalities that match up good on video. Sort of a Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid of the gear head world.
@omarks
Just a question so I can understand, your point is?
is it for sale ?
why are the back wheels a lot bigger than the front wheels
I would be so happy, if I could wire the starter for you.^^
@NegativeNumbers427
I Agree
I'm sure they have other work and projects they work on.
Im love 3
Is that a downhill drag strip?
You need to dump a 5 speed in it.
@ChevyGuy566 The car obviously didn't have 750HP back in '83 when he bought it... he put in the new engine in '95 when he was ... 27.
It sat for 15 years for literally no reason? You're a spoiled man, Freiburger.
@mercslrfan
I know plenty of guys who have done that and I've helped em. Not because they booked b4 the car was done, but because it could b the first, last, or one of the bigger shows of the car show season and they wanna b there. It's so frustrating cuz you're working fast but you're not rushing because u want things to still b somewhat perfect. It's a mental thing, it's a challenge, but yet it's still fun. Just part of the game.
ok what do i need to do to my 2.3 mustang to get a low 12 on the dreg strip
My dream car!:'(
I could explain to you something about (what I assume) is the very rapid and ever-changing schedule of publishing that doesn't allow you the luxury of such foresight, but I'll leave it to this: Because then Freiburger and Finnegan wouldn't have hilarious videos to star in on the internet.
@availablerandomname thought i'd give this trolling thing a try. Went pretty well i think
so fucking raw
Blew up a Chrysler transmission, sure that's never happened before...
Stick shift swap!
why would you not fix that damn beautifull car before!
@fox71racer Always good to converse with a fellow gearhead even when they do butt heads about who has a better engine but hey man I will always respect a V8 be it a Hemi or LS9
how much money do you invest in to the car
@Mangaluver321 They did have a cover story of a '68 Camaro with a 1000 hp Supra motor in it....
it's kind of a challenge , I guess
dream car is Dominic's blown engine 70 Dodge charger
my first car- a fiat X1/9.... i'll trade you any day of the week. lol
Did he say they were going to Lath Vegath???
whats your "best looking car"????????
I love it all I just want to live with you
at 3:26 i see a honda civic Ek9 sliver ahan so these guys also do JDMs
@MercSLRFan
Sometimes it is not about that car. It is about the event itself.
Put in a v8 or turbo it, new headers, exhaust, intake and gearing. Maybe throw some nitrous in it but it might detonate with nitrous and a turbo. What year is it?
There was a bigger story on this in hot rod mag
Rockets. That is all.
@ChevyGuy566 didnt you listen to the video? he started with a 3xx CI engine the 750 engine wasnt put in until he was about 25
Dave why are your knees rapped up in the old pic with the superbee did you Wipeout on a skateboard or someting?
0:34 it has 1 HP (Human Power)
