    My favourite was the '69 Mustang but I would have voted for the Buick as well. Nine years in the making, the final result was just simply stunning. The Buick builders managed to retain the styling cues of both its original exterior & interior, while upgrading the materials the highest level. Even the Nailhead was retained, which is just so Buick. It was an homage to influence that Chuck Jordan had on the entire '59 GM full sized line-up, which was a radical change from the one year only bulky '58 GM offerings. Nice work all 'round.

    LOVE how the Invicta builder chose to retain the very unique and original equipment instrument panel mirror setup. While Buick only used this for a couple years (1960-1961 I believe) it's pretty awesome. The actual speedometer & associated gauges are printed in reverse and sit facing the front of the vehicle, below the driver's line of sight. A rectangular mirror that rotates several degrees is placed where the gauges would normally sit. This allows the driver to adjust the mirror angle based on their height and optimal viewing angle, using a thumb wheel that is just to the right of the mirror. If you've never seen this, I recommend you seek one of these out at your next car show that has any of the early 60's Buicks.

    @joebacarella2829 6 месяцев назад +5

    The Invicta was just stunning, 9 years in the making, how much money was spent is the question. The Goolsby Mustang was just stunning in my view, and he kept it Ford with a super charged Coyote engine, paint fit and finish were flawless.

    Johnathan Goolsby is so talented and a awesome builder so cool to know i can go about 15 minutes down the road and get a totally custom car built from the frame up ! And he doesn't do just Hotrods hes done a badass Orange 90s CRX in the early 2000s and it won a bunch of shows and was featured in Super Street magazine or Import Tuner magazine one or the other I cant remember which one tho ! It had a totally custom dash and stereo in the rear hatch it was a real head turner !

    Good choice by the judges. The Buick was by far my favorite although there were a few other good entries as well. The one I couldn't understand being in the final twelve was that awful green Ford F100. Was the person who picked the interior colors for that truck color blind?! Blech! Two thumbs way down on that entry but those who voted for that gorgeous and classy Buick got it 100% right. Hats off to them,
