I had one like this in Brazil, all original, it has the best clutch ever. Good memories with my kids....if I do have money, I do not hesitate to buy one again. Wonderful job guys.
@@peterducodil9890 People with NO design skill should not try to improve on a fabulously designed car like that. The big surprise is going to be when he tries to sell it. I'd love to be there when he finds out it was worth more before he touched it.
Not the route I would have taken, but it's not my car. I'm not a big fan of the color choices. I would have liked to hear it run, but since it has a modern V8... Wouldn't have been all that special anyways. Hope you enjoy it. You did a LOT of work.
Absolutely beautiful car. Beautiful colour. BUT STOCK! STOCK! STOCK! Improve the engine, make the car suitable and SAFE for today’s traffic but STOCK! STOCK! STOCK!
I saw videos 1 and 2. This car was more beautiful before they put their paws on it. Only two things make sense to each other: the result of "restoration" and the background music.
John..wow..did ever seem like there weren't enough hours in the day? fantastic job..the videos do not even capture the hard work..time..and money spent...great job!
Now where near a restoration............know the meaning of the word restoration......means bring back to original.........wrong colours for a start and wrong parts................if you are going to restore something know what it means.....it is now just bits and pieces.............
I had one. Got it from the Hells Angles for 60 dollars. It was sitting under an oak tree for years.put a 235 str8 6..did the interior mohair..bought a new set of wide white tires, installed the vac assist shift..(3 on the tree).You could put your right arm around your girl and shift with your index finger on your left hand, it was so smooth !Painted in with rattle cans..satin black...Laid hella pipe in that bomb!It never let me down.OK..this was in 1977..had her until 1984..Letting her go was one of many regrets in my life.We called her.."Old Cal" ! I hope she didn't end up like the car in this video,Oh God No !
I think your definition of restoration may differ from by a large margin. I go for originality as much as feasibly possible. Currently have a two 1941 Chevrolets Special Deluxe cars. One is a Cabriolet and a 5 passenger coupe. Both original. Nonetheless, that 1947 is yours to do with whatever you please. Good luck with it and thanks for the video.
Para mí el valor d un carro está en : 1ro ser dueño original, 2do mantener al máximo sus partes originales sin cambiarlas salvó excepciones. Es decir bujías, platinos etc.
I think you did a great job and it's a shame that some people can't see past the tip of their own noses and look at this car in the positive light that it should be looked at. I really doesn't matter how you went about doing YOUR car. The fact remains that whatever you spent on that car is money wll spent. Now you have a modern, up to date car with all of the nostalgia of the old car. You get to enjoy both worlds and it probably didn't cost you $25K to have such a great car you will be able to enjoy for a very long time. Same thing I would have done if it was me making the decisions. Good job, maybe we will get to see this thing run, what do you say?
Ive had the original boring cars LS swap lets you cruise, instead of setting around in lawn chairs and looking at boring trailer queens. LS only way to go in these old junks.........a lot of work nice build screw everybody else its your car drive it enjoy it
i hope those upper A frame assembly mounts you welded atop the frame dont come off other than that shes a good job,, car lives on for another or more a half a century... keep rockin....
Just as I thought another ghetto ride....lowering the car ? That grill is ugly paint it....somebody turned this car into a Puerto Rican car. This is going to be another Snoop dog car....with no chrome...this build stinks
I'm reading a lot of hate comments here. Why, because the guy didn't do it the way you would have done it? Can you imagine if everyone in the entire world did everything the exact same way? It would be a boring world. Thankfully we all have unique personalities and likes and dislikes which makes the world more interesting. Ok, it's not your style, it's not what you would have done, and it's OK, nothing wrong with that. But to bash someone's hard work and their vision because it's not what YOU would have done is very ignorant and shows you have no class. I was brought up that if you don't have anything nice to say, then don't say anything at all. But in today's modern society there are millions of arm chair commandos. My opinion of the car. I would have done a few things different, but, maybe the owner hasn't totally finished it, so there is that. Although not a restoration, it was nicely done. A lot of work and hours went into this build and I'm sure a chunk of money also. I like the color combination. My hat is off to the owner. Haters are going to hate no matter what.
Nice work. Not my taste. Put a heck of a lot of time and money into it. Scratching my head on the inspiration for the low tide look, unless you only want to display it only at car shows or parades where or how you gonna drive it?
HELP...HELP...HELP! NEW MEXICO IS BEING DESTROYED BY AN OUT OF CONTROL GOVERNOR...GOV. GRUESOM IS A DERANGED, COMMUNIST, DEMONCRAP PSYCHO NUT-BAG! THIS EVIL, CRACK-HEAD WITCH THINKS IT CAN RIP UP NOT ONLY AMERICA'S CONSTITUTION, BUT ALSO FLUSH NEW MEXICO'S STATE CONSTITION DOWN THE TOILET ! SOMETHING MUST BE DONE TO STOP THIS POWER MAD DICTATOR FROM KILLING NM COMPLETELY! PLEASE, SOMEONE HELP THE PEOPLE IN NM. THE GOV. IS GUILTY OF VOTING FRAUD, MILLIONS IN KICK BACK CONTRACTS, SWORE AN OATH THAT IT NEVER INTENDED TO UPHOLD! IT BELONGS IN PRISON OR BETTER YET...(CONTINUED)
I think you did a great job not my style but you built the way you wanted it F the haters who leave there dumb comments what do they have probably nothing LOL
Please, NO! One totally screwed up POS eyesore that COULD HAVE BEEN a beautifully restored classic! Don't let him get near anything else. This thing is so hideous that he could park it anywhere on the streets of Harlem and it would never get touched much less stripped.
Car came out beautiful. Was all way's a fan of that car. Excellent job. Love the paint job. Very cool. Good Luck!
Beautiful ride! Nice work. Love how you left the front bumper alone.
Beautiful ride !👏🏻
I had one like this in Brazil, all original, it has the best clutch ever. Good memories with my kids....if I do have money, I do not hesitate to buy one again. Wonderful job guys.
Beautiful car talented worker with lots of skill great job on da bomb love the color combo
Destroyed another beautiful old car with modern reso-crap. When will they learn.
Totally in agreement.
Feel the same

I thought it was going to be factory stock.
Some people would refer to that old girl as a "junker" before. Now it truly is a JUNKER!
I am a fan of original. But you did a beautiful Job on it. The color is awesome. Good Luck.... It's your car you can do what you want!!!!
What a labor intensive effort. Great job! Thanks!
What a transformation,loved every moment of the video...
I agree that this was not a restoration. Resto-mod, but still need lots of work. Appreciate the time and effort spent to do a good salvage.
Nice color . Now if you could get Billy Gibbons to make a custom sound system then it be wicked .
LOOKS BEAUTIFUL!!! 6/4/2020. JOANN. LAMONICA. ONEONTA. NEW. YORK👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
One day I will have mine..
Very nice but I would have had to have the grille rechromed , no matter what the cost . It is the crowning glory of the car .
whoever made this restoration needs to give his money back this is awful really awful!
It’s your car Do what YOU want with it and ignore the critics. If is wasn’t for your hard work it probably would have been junked
It would have been better had it been crushed rather than this!
I thought it would be factory stock.
Not the route I would have went. Just another throw together Resto-Mod. Sad, it's not a '47 Chevy anymore :(

One day I will get mine all black 47 or 48 ..
Ruined another old car. Hope you are proud.
Why do people wreck good old cars like these like this?

Yep he jacked that car up.... what a shumk.....

LOTS of work has gone into this car. So when will YOU finish it.
Another rare complete car fucked up.
agreed 100%
It is a work senseless, waste of a blank canvas
wish mine was all original but I have what I got lol
At least they didn’t roof chop it
I had one. Got it from the Hells Angles for 60 dollars. It was sitting under an oak tree for years.put a 235 str8 6..did the interior mohair..bought a new set of wide white tires, installed the vac assist shift..(3 on the tree).You could put your right arm around your girl and shift with your index finger on your left hand, it was so smooth !Painted in with rattle cans..satin black...Laid hella pipe in that bomb!It never let me down.OK..this was in 1977..had her until 1984..Letting her go was one of many regrets in my life.We called her.."Old Cal" !

In Australia we call those 'slopers'. Very nice job. Not enough people do these up.
An incredible amount work done to rebuild C F 1947. This is an upgraded version of General Douglas Macarthur staff car.
I just can't get over all hate? Does anybody realize just how many old cars are out there waiting to be rescued?get your own and leave this guy alone!
It wasn't rescued it was freaking destroyed.
Anyone can butcher a car. It takes someone with good taste to restore one. This thing is nauseating.

Couldn't agree more. What a bunch of grouchy arseholes.
Now it looks like a fuckin pt cruiser

i hope those upper A frame assembly mounts you welded atop the frame dont come off other than that shes a good job,, car lives on for another or more a half a century... keep rockin....
????????????? .. and the part 3 ???
Would have re chromed it all and went as original as I could and would of done black paint or dark blue
Waooo desde 0
BENDICIONES
Exhaust pipes outside of frame rails? I`d like to see more pics.Do you have a build thread on any online forums?
All that work just to make a trashy looking end.
Interesting photos to give a good idea of the intensity to restore an old car. I just didn't like the front end lowered.
He didn't restore it, that's nothing close to a restoration
like the car. im not sure if it's a restoration, def looks good though.
Nice job...............
Forgive them Father they know what they want, not what everyone else wants, sounds like others would have gone the Jonathan Ward Icon way of things.

Are those honda wheels lol
I'm sorry. I don't like the finished work. It sucks.
Nice work. Not my taste. Put a heck of a lot of time and money into it. Scratching my head on the inspiration for the low tide look, unless you only want to display it only at car shows or parades where or how you gonna drive it?
Man that color combo and the wheels makes it look so ugly.i hope it dont end up back in the junkyard such a nice car.
There is no "restoration" about this. The only thing left of the original car is the shape.
The rear of the car looks like crap jacked up like that. Otherwise it's a nice ride.
Carro tem q ser original..
Sem mudar painel...
Sem mudar nada
destruyo un auto.....
HELP...HELP...HELP!

Una porquería...eso no es restaurar, eso es reformar y estropear!!!
This is horrible. It looks like some south central L.A. gang banger vomitted. Absolutely butchered. 😣
Как то не понятно кончилось!!!🙄 хоть показали бы чем закончилось, как ездиет, звук движка!🤨
Roach coach...
I think you did a great job not my style but you built the way you wanted it F the haters who leave there dumb comments what do they have probably nothing LOL
Music👎🏻
Unrealistic for your average joe . .
Looks terrible,should have been restored to like the original,wasted antique vehicle
Time for some commenters to join 21st century.
Que decepción. Una verdadera porqueria
Didn't like to see that... LOL
You spoiled the originality
Try again.
