Rad Rides

[texas56]

I havent been on here in a while and Im sure you guys already talked about it but if not there is a ton of cool stuff in the project section. The 54 buick is wild.www.radrides.com

[Al Moreno]

Your right they do have the Baddest projects in the Universe.

They just keep setting the bar higher!

[NOVA]

Can't wait to see the 62 Chevy there doing and the Poteet Ford, always cool stuff going on there.

[customcam]

Can you imagine the hits they get every week
I got these pics of Levi Green who has done the Fabrication on this car.

Can't wait to see the 62 Chevy there doing and the Poteet Ford, always cool stuff going on there.

They're also working on another of George Poteet's cars, a 1932 Ford 'Miller Hauler'. Very cool almost 'traditional' styled truck. :hail:

[70rs]

That second gen Firebird is shaping up to be a bad ass car!!

[Garage Dog 65]

The Miller Hauler is very nice !

They always set the bar high for their builds - which is nice to see.

All the other shops must get tired of chasing these guys...

And Moose must be getting very tired of sanding on all that cast iron ... he should get an award for that thankless job.

:thumbsup:

Lots of effort in that Buick,Troy said the amount of work in getting that Benz motor to work with the electronics was incredible..Cool stuff

That truck is a study in color and design,I have seen Moose sand on that stuff for weeks,Your right it is a thankless job,Poor guy

[HOLOHAN'S HOT ROD SHOP]

Moose wouldn't want it any other way, he the best there is at that job. I watched him for days sanding off the letters off the tires for the 36' Ridler car. Only Moose could handle that...........

[bigtyme1]

Lots of effort in that Buick,I will take pics when I'm putting interior in it.Troy said the amount of work in getting that Benz motor to work with the electronics was incredible.That and the Camaro are going to be done this year.That is what I was told to schedule for them..Cool stuff:thumbsup:

CAMARO :cheers:

he's the only one with the patience.

[Kendall Burleson]

he's the only one with the patience.I don't think that what Dan was talking about MOOSE'S metal patience.

[cmraman]

I don't think that what Dan was talking about MOOSE'S metal patience.

Knowing him the way I do, he has a ton of patience. The jobs he does smoothing those parts out, takes alot of time, and patience.

[GregWeld]

Wow - the work on that Buick is - words don't describe it.... of course, I think you could say that about all of Rad Rides work...

I need a road trip to go sweep their floors!!! :rofl: :rofl:

[Diognes56]

Rad Rides is awsome :hail: :hail: :hail: , and they are all really cool :thumbsup: (atleast the guys I have met).

Anyone know the reason the Mercedes motor was chosen?

Not to mention...

I met Moose at a World of Wheels show, and I cannot begin to describe how much of a gentleman he was. He took quite a bit of time to discuss all sorts of details of the car they had there (I think it was the Flashback Fastback), answering all sorts of questions from people as they looked the car over.

The owner had a AMG G wagon that his son wrecked, so they are using it.

Thanks Robert.

Troy said the amount of work in getting that Benz motor to work with the electronics was incredible. Cool stuff:thumbsup:

We dropped in the day Jared had the entire Benz electrical system laying out on the showroom floor and it was fully operational with 12 volt battery laying there and all. Funny to watch him rolling up and down the windows, tripping the door locks, trunk release and all the other stuff - ops checking everything before they started the install. It was a serious pile of wire ! They are a sic crew... :cheers:

I have seen some of the stuff you have done that would drive people f****n nuts,Sometimes it is those little things that make all the difference.:lol:

[WSSix]

is the 3rd gen purpose built for something other than looking cool? It's out there in many regards and I'm just hoping it will do more than sit there begging for attention.

[Neil B]

I must admit I was a little nervous when they started fabbing the flares on this one. However, the closer the car gets to metalwork completion, the more you can see the true vision behind this one. This is WAY out-of-the-box car building and it's looking like it might be a home run.

[Aschle]

I wish that I had the vision they have... As much as we are shown by the pictures, I don't like the flares/ body styleing at all... I think it should be interesting when complete... I'll probably really like it after completion, just right now, I don't see it...;) Oh well, it is someone elses ride and not everyone will like it, but nobody will be able to say the work done is bad, the work looks GREAT !

That Miller truck is insane. They updated pics on it in the last few days. I cannot wait till next week to see it at the GNRS.

[Garage Dog 65]

And all that coming from a pretty small shop with a small group of very hard working guys. Auto-art.

[customcam]

I will be there at about noon on thursday. The C6-57 will be on display in building 6.

See you guys this weekend and that awesome miller truck.

[96z28ss]

So who built the Miller Truck? Looks like it isn't Troys Shop in some of the pictures. Did Troy just do all the detail work, paint and assembly?

[RECOVERY ROOM]

They did final assembly,paint and fabrication..I talked to them last week and was told this truck could compete for Riddler if George wanted to.There is so much custom parts made it is insane.

[GregWeld]

Someone remind me not to try to install a modern Mercedes motor and dash into anything.

What a nightmare!

:lol:


The Miller truck is killer!

Not to mention...

I met Moose at a World of Wheels show, and I cannot begin to describe how much of a gentleman he was. He took quite a bit of time to discuss all sorts of details of the car they had there (I think it was the Flashback Fastback), answering all sorts of questions from people as they looked the car over.

I met Moose and Troy's dad at Nashville-Goodguys last year and talked for about a half-hour. I thought they were a class act, and of course their work is top-notch with unbelievable vision. I told them I get up to Chicago couple times a year because of family. I don't know how often they invite people to their shop, but they gave me a card and told me to stop by and check out the shop next time I'm in the area. Pretty cool.

[cheapta]

That third-gen Camaro is wicked!! The original design is looking a little dated these days but those modifications bring it right up to speed-gorgeous!!

[customcam]

Another thing happening at Rad Rides which i think is cool is an Apprentice from
Australia is going to work there for about a month on like a Scholarship to
teach him how Rad Rides go about building there awesome cars.
i think the guy is in his early twenties and must be stoked, i know i would be..
Just shows how many people love Rad Rides around the world. :bow:

Do it,You will be glad you did

[Streetking]

He does some nice work..

[notorious1970]

that miller truck is looking good! Personally I can't wait to see the 80's camaro. The owner has spent a few days actually helping out with the build. Jared mentioned that hes a design engineer of some sort. Wicked! :thumbsup:
