    I think I’ve been following along with you for maybe 3 years now and I still can not believe that your content doesn’t reach more viewers. Everything you put out is so rad and not only that it’s done so so well. So much history on hot rods from your family and friends. Love it all

    I can totally emphasise with the idea behind this build. The patina and the 1960s style lettering really add to the overall vintage look. Then adding all the cleanly freshness underneath is another layer of surprise. Really well done.

    This brings back fond memories growing up in sixties of a black 57 Chevy and old Vette gassers that were a couple of blocks from my house.
    Hot rods were everywhere - Mopars , Chevys, Fords, Pontiac’s etc. and I had a few too! EVs are great but they will never stir my emotions like a good ol’ hotrod.

    I've been blessed to get one of Brendon's most famous creations, the pink RLC '55 Candy Striper Gasser!
    This is my first time listening to Mr. Vetuskey and he is not only a very down to Earth dude, but listening to him in that 6 min video.. he's very inspirational!
    When I started to drive at 16 yrs old I wanted a '55 Chevy so bad and after watching this & listening to Brendon.. It stokes the fire to make me want to pursue that dream again! His car is amazing and I'm not really a Gasser fan so that says a lot!!
    Looking forward to getting that new RLC Gasser this summer too!
    Thanks for sharing your passion and your talent my man!!

    Love your car! I grew up in Santa Rosa CA. my favorite movie is Two Lane Black Top! American Graffiti was fimed next door in Petaluma CA and some of the guys I grew up with worked on those cars.
    Peggy Sue Got Married was filmed in Petaluma and the High School in Santa Rosa was in the film..where I went to school.
    My 56 Chevy 150 utility sedan was in the film and I still have it...wish I had painted it the original olive drab and had the Pac Bell Logo air brushed on the doors.
    You did a great job on your build...kudos!

    Sweet wheels.
    My brother just finished his dream car - 71 Nova SS with 4 speed / 12 bolt rebuilt with a 4 link rear suspension and a MONSTER 427 fuelie. 3.73 gears.
    He drives it like it was built to be run ... it's REALLY something (oh, exhaust cut-outs also) to have him launch that puppy when you're in it.
    Like the owner of this beauty he did most of the work himself, 80 hours of porting work in the heads alone.

    Awesome video and a sweet 55 Chevy. Tri fives can pull off just about every style of build it feels like. Gasser, pro touring, stock, custom, etc. The classic lines and base bones of a tri five just work. Might be a bit biased as we have a couple of tri fives in the garage of varying build styles, lol.

    Man, Ben, you really do a fantastic job with these videos. I've done a bunch for my artwork, and one guy handling all that is quite an undertaking. You do scene-setting, rolling in-car, external rolling, internal and external detail shots. You have good sound. The cars and owners both make for interesting stories, and you do well getting the interviewee to express good material in their own words. Really cool music added in as well. I enjoy these videos and hope you keep making them.

You got Brendon that is such an amazing human being that the world and automotive industry needs more of and sets such a great example to live by. Then you got my dude Ben that is killing the YT Automotive content with his quality and story making capabilities. This was a great watch and worth every minute!

We ended up in a room off the store where there were lots of Matchbox cars and more what we now know as Hot Wheels, a strip of track and a table. I was asked to try all the cars, track etc. They then interviewed me for a while. About 2 weeks later I got in the mail a few Hot Wheels cars, track and clamp and a letter thanking me.
