    what I love about Dennis is he is a oddball guy who shows odd cars. He looks like he loves this job as well.

      We don't know the history of this car. If he took a perfectly good Maserati and butchered it with customization, than yeah, I agree with the hate. But he mentioned this was the result of 20 years of restoration. For all we know, the engine was blown, and the car was left to rot in the elements for 30+ years. Sourcing a period correct Maserati engine may have unobtainable. Either due to cost, or limited sources. Limited production, 20 years would put this at 1997. eBay really wasn't as useful in the hobby as it is today, and they might've not even had internet access. Hopefully they kept the block, but it's also possible that they couldn't find anyone willing to work on it. Remember, not everyone can do everything themselves. They may have tried to outsource labor, and local shops were too afraid of it.
      The paint/body, given this hypothetical scenario, means that it would need a respray. We don't know if they tried to source the right color, or simply felt that whatever was original wasn't to their liking, and chose something they preferred, knowing that it can always be repainted something else in the future, since the original paint was beyond saving.
      Instead of bashing the man and his father for butchering a classic, we might should be thanking him for resurrecting something which, by now, might've been too far gone to save. This car not only was saved from being a potential junker, decaying back into its original natural elements, but essentially built in such a way that when a future collector gets their hands on it, they have the ability to see to it that this gets as much concourse treatment as it deserves. A proper restorer would love to have this car, not whatever heap the potential basket case originally was when they got it in the 90s.

    If I remember correctly the fiberglass bodied postal jeeps were electric cars. He said this one originally had a 4cyl iron duke engine.

    Dennis will walk past 10 really cool cars then focus on some oddball (Mail Jeep and "57 Chevy " thing)

    • @TheHelado36
      @TheHelado36 7 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      Well it can get boring to go to the 57 chevys, mustangs, and corvettes all the time!

    • @styldsteel1
      @styldsteel1 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      That's why I love this show like I do. If he focused on the dime-a-dozen corvettes, buy one get one free Chevelle SS, I wouldn't watch this show. show me stuff I've never seen before

    Why do hot rodders use jag rear ends?

    • @MyClassicCarTV
      @MyClassicCarTV  5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It gives you independent rear suspension rather than a straight axle. Plus, it looks really cool!

    Was this guy on American Pickers ??

  • @alanladdseinekatze859
    @alanladdseinekatze859 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    The term "hot rodding" is synonymous for turning crap into art, not for turning art into crap like executed on that million dollar Maserati.
    Maybe someone should send the Mona Lisa to that guy to have it "hot rodded" with lipstick and stuff...
