  • This is the 3rd custom build from Lakeside Speed & Shine that we've shot and I'm a fan! Jim and his crew build great looking vehicles that drive perfectly. I can't say that about all custom builds but when they're done right like this badass pro charged Nova it's impossible to wipe the smile off my face so sit back and enjoy the ride...

    Happy Friday Everyone! Thanks Shawn, for another great drop. The Nova was bad-ass when he bought it, but Lakeside Speed & Shine took it to another level. Great work and a truly amazing car to own and drive

    This turned out amazingly well. Congrats on the build. Constructive recommendation here, and I think its a "me" thing. What about a gun metal finish (like the rims) for the bumpers, grill, around the lights, maybe the trim around the windows? I like the departure from where chrome would normally be.

    I want a Nova so bad. I have seen all of you Nova interviews. This one is right up there with the rest of them. Very sick build

    Really cool to see how involved the owner is with the build. You can really tell how passionate he is about it. I dig the red om the rims, color is so rare nowaday on rims and i appriciate it being different. Killer build. Great show.

    Love the colour combo that grey with black stripe with red pinstripe just sets it off. Beautiful.

  • @Rick-O-Shay60
    @Rick-O-Shay60 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Another beauty build by Lakeside. I'm all about respecting these car's capabilities. Hey, when you have the kind of cash it takes to build a custom hot rod like this, It's about fun, not about beating the snot out of it... even though you could.

  • @thegraystang66

    Whoa Gray and red with red wheels ! What a combo 😬

    Badass car! I agree I would go with black carpet and put the amplifiers in the trunk or hide them. I also love the black trim around the windows.

  • @jayweiss4378

    So good! Had the 66 SS with a 4 bolt 327 that I built in Mom's basement back in high school back in the mid 70's. Put every paycheck I had in it at $1.65/hour and thanks to the swap meets and helpful vets who were everywhere in Detroit's hottest stuff of the day, I had a smokin' ride. Still recall every race I had on the streets in South Mpls including the time I ran against a 62 Chevy II and a better driver with a bigger budget. He had that pearly shag carpet on the rear deck and that's bout all I got to see! He dropped by later at the A & W to give me few tips on launching and how to better set the timing! Great car! Great times and great people everywhere back then.

    The casino theme paintjob is something we should see in reality, cause I know for one that a camera hasn't got the ability to capture the real depth and details of those kind of paintjobs, especially when you're in the red candy spectrum. A friend of mine had a paintjob done on his C10, real fire true flames (it had the vintage hotrod flames on it before) And when he received some pictures of a first glance of it he was actually devistated, he called me up and actually asked me to come over and take a look at the pictures on his computer(this was way before smartphones) He was all in anger that his car was ruined. I told him to calm down and go see the car. Turns out it was fantastic, we even picked it up on a rainy day and later on when the sun came out, my buddy was totally baffled, because when the sun hit that real fire paintjob, it just looked as if the flames popped out. My guess is that the depth in that casino paintjob theme is probably phenomenal

    • @AutotopiaLA

    @rogjackson 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Thank you for detailing the wheel and tire sizes!! It's super helpful information to folks that are trying to gauge what they might want to do on their own projects at home. Excellent video! I like the look of the rear tucked wheels. Frankly, the stance generally is oustanding. Well done Sir, and sweet ride Yo.

    Stunning. Love seeing something different. Paint, rims, motor details, hood. Just all looks so good.

    My jaw dropped when he popped the hood - wicked cool! (especially since he lived there and got married there). That fuel filler behind the driver's side tail ight though... next level genius in creativity. Oh, and 57 isn't old, buddy! I've got you by a year and feel like a champ. James has good taste and I love this build.

  • @I-Teee

    Nardo grey is one of my sll time favorite paint colors. Beautiful ride and top build quality. 👍👍

  • @spdcrzy
    @spdcrzy ปีที่แล้ว

    THIS. THIS is the kind of builder mentality that more people need to emulate. Design it first, THEN build it right the first time. ALSO: I call it - the official name for this car is ALL IN!

    the cool thing is that these are customs and the choices are by the customer/owner, that's the nature of a custom, build it how you want it, they are all one offs

    Just watch is this and immediately thought how it looks similar to my truck. Not sure if I can post a pic here if it. It's gray also, but with a green strip on the hood just like this. That's black with red looks great on there
