A friend of my dad and I builds custom hot rods. He does it all himself and makes everything out of steel. He is one of those guys that just makes it all look simple. You never really see him work, but every time you go over there is progress.

This is his 53 caddie. It was originally a 4 door. He used the back of a 68 chevy truck cab and the bed to make his redneck escalade. It has a 454 and a/c.

This is his more recent endeavor. A 1953 caddie sedan delivery. He built it using a 57 chevy sedan delivery for parts.

This is one he has started but said he has gotten bored with for now.
