OMG 😲 Shawn, it's magic, pure genius. What a crew. So creative. Badass all the way 😎 around. Beautiful ride 😍 guys. Time for a raise. Thanks 😊 again Shawn TCB
Glad you could go document this build. Rodger and his crew are building an amazing car. We are blessed to be able to machine the parts you see on this car for them.
That's not a car. It's a piece of art, rolling sculpture. It'd be sacrilegious to paint it and cover up all that hard work and quality. In my opinion painting it would reduce it to just another nice high end hot rod from the current beauty it is.
What is truly sacrilegious is applying that word to a car. It’s just a thing. Jesus is the Christ and the pure religion is in him. Sacrilege is in glorifying anything too highly over him. GOD Bless! ❤️

I love you man. I also love the old cars,but you make the show worth watching. You cut to the chase,you let the owners talk,you are humble like a true comrad.
WHEN I WAS IN HIGH SCHOOL I WAS LEARNING ABOUT STREET RODS, AND MINI TRUCKS WHILE WAS BUILDING MY 59 EL CAMINO!!! THAT IS WHY I AM SO PASSIONATE ABOUT MOTORSPORTS!!! WHILE I WAS WORKING OU AT THE GYM. THANKS FOR LETTING ME SHARE!!!
GREAT VIDEO SHAWN!!!!! I LOVE MY STREET RODDING FAMILY!!!! YOU GUYS ARE ALWAYS INNOVATING!!! I NEVER GET BORED WITH MY MOTORSPORTS FAMILY!!!! BECAUSE EVERYBODY IS ALWAYS INNOVATING ALL THE TIME!!!! A TOTALLY AWSOME VIDEO A DEFINITE MUST-WATCH!!!!
Thanks Shawn! Super cool car! Unreal fab work!! The car totally embodies the “gangster” look of the 1930’s to me. Obviously they wouldn’t have the wheel/tire setup back then. Amazing work from that fab shop.
Another outstanding episode. I think it’s time for a 1 hour special. Shawn your the best Automotive Show on the net and or TV. Dennis Collins is up there also. You display some amazing cars for people who love cars. No reality crap just a proper show and excellent examples. Keep them coming and Thank you Merry Christmas and a Blessed 2023
The front reminds me of Col. Klink's Mercedes staff car, but a badass coupe version. LOL!! Unreal craftsmanship and design! You almost hate to paint it.
Good job to all the guys that built that car. Looks and sounds great. Like a lot of the stuff featured like the knock offs, Pedals, filler. I’ll be using the magnets on interior panel idea at a later date on a 47 fleetline.
What a beautiful, well thought out piece of useable art. You could spend hours geeking out over the details and stellar artisanship poured into it. I like to think if somebody like Pagani were to build a modern hot rod it would be similar in many ways. And it’s not even finished yet. Wow
Such an incredible car, and I couldn't expect anything less for the time and money involved. I know that is a lot coming from me realizing that this car will be somewhere in the $2 million dollar range once it is completed, but I would have to say money well spent for any one off car that looks that incredible before it is completed.
OMG 😲 Shawn it's just a genius build, what craftsmanship. Hat's off to the crew, so dam creative 👏 👌 Its badass 😎 all the way around. Thanks again Shawn,you're the best
That’s awesome that they left the drums and put disc brakes inside the drums. Makes it look era correct!! This is one sweet ride man! I love the bare metal look too!
This is all around one badass ride man! You can see all of the love and time they put into this car! This thing is absolutely beautiful!! Awesome build man!
Dang I like the car like this. Something about it just feels unique. Paint will be pretty but this all metal version seems to have a WWII airplane vibe.
Best one since I’ve sub’ed! just wow. Not only the car but the filming and editing is top notch. These guys are modern day car artists for sure! ‘Bitchin man!
My love of street rods and sprint cars has and will last my entire life. To bring elements of both into a creation has been a dream and lived out in others creations. 😍❤😍
That's a amazing car !! So cool that they replaced all the wood with inner steel framing alot of work, and he's so tall , I'm short only 5,7 so I would fit in that car easy 😀🤙🏼 be good to see all done 👍🏻👍🏽
Beautiful car. Needs to mount a couple tommy guns in trunk. Couple nickel plated 1911s under dash. The fabrication and detail is amazing. Plz go back when he finishes it. Thx.
@@AutotopiaLA Oh I agree with you there Shane look at the cost of a Riddler attempt several Million Dollars. Merry Christmas to you and yours including your Crew.
This car is sick but please shoot the 57 Chevy pickup they did around 2010. Truckin’ mag had it on the cover and it’s pictured on the wall in the background. Tube chassis, c6 corvette drivetrain with a 408ish LS engine. If you could find and shoot that thing, I’d watch it 1000 times. Think it was called black gold
fantastic car , ive noticed with so many built vehicles these days , they have no windshield wipers ! I have a question , are these , strictly trailor queens opr how do they clear the windshield if driven in the rain?
kinda perfect..... dayum...and i never say this..................never heard of this shop......amazing.... and the engine is very mild and civil..but 500 or so woulda been more perfect....😉
10,000 hours x $25/hour = $250,000. 10,000 hours x $50/hour = $500,000. Add more for the cost of car parts. You get the idea how much it cost to build this car
Beautiful car no doubt but over $1 million, i’d personally save over $900k and build a gorgeous Factory Five 33 hot rod. Yes not hand formed aluminum but I guarantee I would have just as much fun but that’s just me
The Factory Five 33 has awkward proportions. Pushrod suspension and tube frame are cool though. On the other hand, this Chevy is beautiful inside and out!
If you guys haven't seen the back story of Rodgers, take the time to watch this episode from the Roadster Shop podcast. Pretty interesting story of where Rodger Lee came from, and what got him to this point in time. th-cam.com/video/XWbBx5QX81Q/w-d-xo.html
What you guys smoking out los Angeles them cars were works of art outta the factory. Million bucks crazy my uncle put a 34 Ford roadster with a ruble seat it had 327old timer was using a coat hanger to braze. Them oldtimers started hot rods and racing with nickel and dimes. All these shops charging millions , hot rods should be about friends family, and community working together on cars and life problems.
Different approach for everyone. That’s the beauty of the custom car world imo. Garage builds. Shop builds. Low budget. Big budget. I love custom builds
@AutotopiaLA oh right, I thought the rules where it can't be posted on the build of the cars on social media before the show. Looks like one hell of a build though
This car need just some clear coat, because of future, curious, smudgy fingers all over the car. And I would never put this on some kind of shelf, for show-offing, but as work-horse, some kind of R/D benchmarking car. The next step is carbon fiber/titanium mix of pieces that would cut a lot the weight. Wheels, fenders, the roof, good, trunk. Even the floor panels... Shawn, dude, where are the lowrider Mercs? Some Italian flavour cars? Anyone working on restomoding the Delahaye cars, or some twisted Rolls? Old Mercedes, with new flavour of tech? Maybe, some new ways of tuning or new wave of styling of the cars? Some tech shots, with shops, just like this, but behind the scenes, but only jewels (snappy cut small length videos, or cameos) For the music, I would cut it out, but would put the "raw" section, where are you+car+road and symphony of the doom! I wish you, great 2023!
Thanks for taking some time to tell the story of this car, my guys have worked so hard on.
You and your crew create incredible builds and this one is rolling art. Can’t wait to shoot more with you guys
Incredible build, next level🏁🏁🏁

I love it in bare metal. True art from incredible craftsmen
@@AutotopiaLA I think a good question to pose to these top tier builders is:
"What's the most important thing you learned on this build?"
I definitely agree I love the way it looks now. Would almost be a crime to paint it lol
I love you man.
I also love the old cars,but you make the show worth watching.
You cut to the chase,you let the owners talk,you are humble like a true comrad.

Thank you both very much!!! The bare metal appearance rocks.
What an absolute amazing car. Hope you can do a part 2, diving deeper into this incredible machine.
You called it Shawn; it would take multiple hours to tell all that's been done to this MASTERPIECE!
Thanks Shawn! Super cool car! Unreal fab work!! The car totally embodies the “gangster” look of the 1930’s to me. Obviously they wouldn’t have the wheel/tire setup back then. Amazing work from that fab shop.
running art work...................poetry in motion
Truly
The editor had fun with this one lol. Very cool change of pace. Love how raw and “unfinished” this car is. I wouldnt change a thing!!!!
Truly impressive execution and vision in this build.
Just awesome Rodger is the best I’m glad you guys made the trip
Well worth the time. Cool guy and incredible builder and crew. More to come with Rodger for sure!

Love the bare metal but can’t wait to see it complete and rolling down the road
Good job to all the guys that built that car. Looks and sounds great. Like a lot of the stuff featured like the knock offs, Pedals, filler. I’ll be using the magnets on interior panel idea at a later date on a 47 fleetline.
The magnetized interior panels are genius
Just think what a million dollars can get the average car person. For me it’s every one of my dream cars I have yet to own in my life
This is a dream car for the owner that commissioned it
What a beautiful, well thought out piece of useable art. You could spend hours geeking out over the details and stellar artisanship poured into it. I like to think if somebody like Pagani were to build a modern hot rod it would be similar in many ways.

Super cool, nailed the look, stance is great also...
They killed it on this build!!
@@AutotopiaLA it's great to see a 30's chevy also, there's not enough of them.
Enjoyed!! 👍👍
This is all around one badass ride man! You can see all of the love and time they put into this car! This thing is absolutely beautiful!! Awesome build man!
Outstanding A rolling sculpture like a Delahaye except it’s a hot rod Just as beautiful
Agreed my friend
Dang I like the car like this. Something about it just feels unique. Paint will be pretty but this all metal version seems to have a WWII airplane vibe.
I love the bare metal look as well
wow thats sweet ride
The car is phenomenal . great work !
i just pictured a project in the raw sheet metal done up with stenciled patina art / badging . oo yeah .
Love the bare metal look!!
Best one since I’ve sub’ed! just wow. Not only the car but the filming and editing is top notch. These guys are modern day car artists for sure! ‘Bitchin man!
Thanks. Rodger and the Ironworks guys are amazing and thanks for the compliments on the video…working in a new editor and he’s awesome!
DO MORE SHOP TOURS !!!!! LOVE IT !!!!!
My love of street rods and sprint cars has and will last my entire life. To bring elements of both into a creation has been a dream and lived out in others creations. 😍❤😍
Just the ticket for a Sharp Dressed Man
Only one word necessary, Outstanding 👏👏
I like the raw metal look 👍
Me too!
Saw this car at The Gathering at Woolaroc! Simply incredible.
Seeing it up close is something to see for sure
That thumbnail is a big call, extremely nice but perfect !!
If you love cars like this, you should look up the Riddler award winning 1931 Chevy "Sho Bird". Baddest car I've persnally seen, ever!
Beautiful Craftsman ship, your team is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!! Definitely badass machine.
That's a amazing car !! So cool that they replaced all the wood with inner steel framing alot of work, and he's so tall , I'm short only 5,7 so I would fit in that car easy 😀🤙🏼 be good to see all done 👍🏻👍🏽
B A D to the bone. 🤯
No doubt!
Beautiful 35 Chevy coupe Roger should be very proud of his talented employees
It's going to be too beautiful to drive it once it's done.
What a beautiful ride.❤
What a bad ass BUILD!!! Freakin’ 🔥🔥🔥!!!
Also love the little video add-ins. 😂😂
And holy crap, that dude is TALL!!! 😱
He’s a big boy! We’ve got a new editor…glad you noticed the new flavor. Killer build for sure bro!
I feel Rogers pain, being over 6 feet tall, but dude you are building a custom one off car, make it so you can fit and enjoy!
He’s building this car for a client that’s not nearly as tall…and it’ll still be tight
Love the car... but the poster of ' Lil ' John Buttera's coupe holds the PINNACLE for me. KUDO'S!
Respectfully, Seth
That is some insane metal work
Truly art
Bad ass👍👍👍
I'm to old for dreaming and wishing but man I wish I could have this car.
Never too old…sure is a beautiful work of art
At last a hot rod stunning piece of work
Truly incredible what these guys do with metal
Seriously killer car!
No doubt. Such an amazing work of artistry
Awesome work well done
ZZ Top approved
I love seeing them raw
Future AMBR
Except it’s not a roadster but I know what you mean. It’ll be a competitor anywhere it shows
Beautiful build!!!👏👏❤
Definitely
The faux drum brakes are a very nice touch
So cool
wow!! goodjob car like.
Stunner
Merry Christmas to you all😅
Fantastic work great job.
That is a bad a** looking 35 Chevy!👍❤
Stunning Car and man is that Roger guy tall.
Beautiful car, I hope it gets driven a lot
I’ve met the owner and he’ll drive like he drives all his cars
It won’t be driven at all
Beautiful car. Needs to mount a couple tommy guns in trunk. Couple nickel plated 1911s under dash. The fabrication and detail is amazing. Plz go back when he finishes it. Thx.
It is a beauty and we’ll show it off when it’s complete too
Cool car metal
Love it in bare metal
If it was built out of Aluminum, you could polish it to a mirror finish like an airplane.
Yep but it’s getting full paint and body next…I love the bare metal look though
@@AutotopiaLA I like the metal look also. Clear Coat and leave it as is.
That is a crazy amount of money to spend on a Street Rod. More like a Craftsman Build.
It is crazy money but look at that craft…exceptional work
@@AutotopiaLA Oh I agree with you there Shane look at the cost of a Riddler attempt several Million Dollars. Merry Christmas to you and yours including your Crew.

🔥🔥
kinda perfect..... dayum...and i never say this..................never heard of this shop......amazing.... and the engine is very mild and civil..but 500 or so woulda been more perfect....😉
Sinista gangsta !
Primer Gray what color are they going to paint it?😎
We show a rendering in the video. Pretty sure that’s the color
Carroll Shelby's series 1 " the snake eye.
Cool car I never seen anybody talk about I used to work for Shelby drove them
I would never paint that car, it’s perfect just the way it is. Any color other than bare metal would ruin it in my opinion.
I’m curious to see cause it looks amazing in bare metal
I was just going to comment that I think you're definitely not a small dude but next to Roger damn 😂
Million dollars for this 😂
Proving you have no clue of what you just saw lol
@@AutotopiaLA million dollars for this. Might as well a billion. That’s three new lambos
10,000 hours x $25/hour = $250,000.
10,000 hours x $50/hour = $500,000.
Add more for the cost of car parts.
You get the idea how much it cost to build this car
Plus the hourly rate is much higher than these numbers. It adds up quickly but what a work of art this is
More like $75 to $100 an hour.😁
Nice Chevy
Yeah, she’s a beauty for sure
More money than brains
Wow I like the rawness of it....too bad it's going to be painted
Gimmee all your Lovin'
Billy sings!!
Sheeeshhhh
Leave it in metal. Flat clear it. It’s beautiful
Beautiful car no doubt but over $1 million, i’d personally save over $900k and build a gorgeous Factory Five 33 hot rod. Yes not hand formed aluminum but I guarantee I would have just as much fun but that’s just me
The owner of this vehicle has the budget, has multiple builds from Ironworks and this is what he wanted…and it’s amazing craftsmanship
@@AutotopiaLA out to be for that price tag
The Factory Five 33 has awkward proportions. Pushrod suspension and tube frame are cool though.
On the other hand, this Chevy is beautiful inside and out!
@@nateisright that’s why design is so subjective i think the FF has better proportions than this one
