I'm still amazed at this build. At 70 years old I so badly want to get out to see Bonneville during Speed Week. Perhaps this will be my year. I'd love to see the salt, George Poteet and the crew from Rolling Bones and hopefully Troy. When I win the lottery he's the guy to create my two or three hot rods.
Wow this video deserves many many more views.. the absolutely most beautiful car I’ve ever seen at the salt flats! The way that gold shines off the sun but is not blinding, looks killer.. would definitely like to see more of this car!
The jumping around between the various engineering concepts is counter productive to engineering. This whole video, is at absolute best, a introduction to what engineering COULD BE, as well as what environments used to work with the mating of what's working now, ultimately reaching for future knowledge and practices.
Always wondered about that. You only got one set of eyes. Not steel related but a guy at work was cutting a tree at work after a storm and got some sawdust in his eye. They had to remove it so the infection didn’t spread to his other eye.
Had a buddy using a wire wheel without eye protection and a metal strand of wire got stuck in is eye. Looked freaky like a joy stick sticking out of his eye, he ended up using a qtip and sorta twirled it around and it got snagged and pulled out by the cotton tip. Needless to say he never did that again.
27:15-27:30 - that t bolt clamp is completely out of adjustment range, needed one size smaller. Once the ferrules are tight against each other, you can strip the threads off and you won’t get any more clamping force. I don’t want to say anything mean here, but damn someone should have seen that.
Salt Lake City is a amazing place as far as everywhere you look there's mountains. The city basically sits down in a bowl.. you leave heading west and then it turns to nothing and shortly after you have arrived at the Salt Flats
Bonneville classes/ records are by displacement.... small displacement class requires a small displacement motor. I believe it was run with big motors later on.

Still the most beautiful car ever to show up at the flats. The show was a 10 of 10 Jared.
What a beautiful build. Looks like the perfect shape for going fast. And we all know George is a legend and the benchmark.
Indeed he is
Damn brocephalitis, that is awesome right there now! You and Troy, the car, the build up, the salt, the records, fuckin rad as hell man!
Very well done Jared. Prime time material.

I sure miss you and Lou, somebody needs to create a new show for you guys!

With a four banger! Fantastic!
Just Awesome Troy !!!!
WHERE IS THE FACE AND EYE COVER WHEN CUTTING AND GRINDING

I know the videos old but i was wondering, how does the engine work? Is it a hemi head adapted or is it literally half a hemi, block included?
Love the question! It's adapted
With a fucking 4cylinder...hell ya buddy
Genuinely curious, why a four pot?
