800 hp, 1900lbs: The Insanely Detailed '34 Ford "Iron Orchid"

[@HooniganProjectGarage]

What style do you prefer: A clean Hot Rod or an aggressive Rat Rod?

[@rexela2101]

Clean hot rod!

[@Diddy_Doodat]

Agressive. This paint is cool but better fits a low rider.

[@RCStreetDrift_Bullies]

I Was Feeling The Aggressive Rat Rod Look But This Changed My Mind For Sure Never Seen One This Clean With So Much Details

[@KevskiStyle]

A ratrod, but thats only because I want to drive it. Mad skill for this hotrod, but I woul be scared to park it, so this isn't for me.

[@MrKrozius]

Why not both?

[@jsinghmoments]

My jaw is on the floor. This is on another level! I'd love to hear some more backstory + pictures about what else he built in the past, because that amount of clean in 14 months is un-f***-ing real

[@Hole_Motorsports]

I wouldn't even want to touch it without gloves on. It's incredible.

[@cedartowndawg]

Never been this early to the party before, but that thing is obnoxiously clean... Also proud of Chase's beard for the recovery.

[@TheHoonigans]

Jon is almost fully recovered, we though we lost him for a little bit... We're just glad to have the old Jon back.

[@JesusDiaz-ss5tg]

One of the best build and cleanest job i ever seen in this channel. Keep bringing more car like this to the shop.

[@TheHoonigans]

Hell Yeah! Thanks for the comments Jesus. We are doing our best to bring a wide variety of cars to the garage as we believe style of vehicle play a massive roll in the automotive community as a whole.

[@Asphaltsquadron]

@@TheHoonigans cleanest anywhere, actually....and I've seen a grip, as I've been going to cars shows since '70 (I was 6). I've actually seen this car in person a few times, vid and pix do it no justice. I'm certain you guys agree! Thanks for sharing it for those who haven't had the same pleasure as I.

[@perotekku]

A Pre-60's car, hosted by Jon Chase? Yes please!

[@HOOLIGANfilmz]

I bet he (Jon) has British car knowledge as well... pre-60's, of course.

[@DatOneCat]

I personally was never in too deep on the hot rod side of car culture. But I will say, this definitely is one of my favorite Hot Rods ever. The details and also seeing it lean to one side when it revs itself combined with exhaust note, is just soooo good.

[@jonm1603]

Saw this car in Hot Rod Magazine?... Hot Rod Deluxe?... several years ago, must have been pretty close to its completion. And it's been burned in my memory since then. @Hoonigan Thanks for making a point to bring in virtually every variety of build possible! Love them all!

[@TheHoonigans]

Thanks for the message Jon. Each type of build we have on the show is very unique in its own way, and we want to make sure to highlight all different types of builds and styles of vehicles on this channel. Hopefully one day people can start sharing ideas on how to use each styles on there own builds.

[@joenels4356]

indeed

[@andrew_w2106]

I still have the magazine because it was such a iconic car

I was going to comment on that same line. 😂 Cracked me up.

[@AZCobraman]

Easy to say when you don't really drive it.

[@Matty.Hill_87]

Hot rods aren't my thing, but the attention to detail in this thing is crazy

[@Hole_Motorsports]

If you mod any car to make it faster you by definition like hotrods.

[@Matty.Hill_87]

@@Hole_Motorsports fair point

[@crocosnz3322]

This beast looks amazing, but it's one of those things that you keep seeing more detail the more you look. Seriously I've watched this three times now and keep picking up more subtleties each time - and that's through KZbin. Utterly amazing.

[@GiancarloFloyd]

That is the most beautiful and amazing car I’ve ever seen the amount of detail put into this car is ridiculous.

[@nickgehr6916]

This thing is the real hot boi stuff

[@TheHoonigans]

It doesn't get any more ICY than this.

[@joseofno]

this is above and beyond hoyboi!

[@wontbackdown813]

Hahahah so casual “I just made a frame” Oh okay

[@vrstoslav]

this is just a gorgeous piece of machinery and art. Everything about it.

[@darragh7853]

Omg! That car is INSANE!!

[@Adnan-jn2nk]

Blackout I like the cat aswell

[@darragh7853]

[@mathieulebum]

Hoonigan with another beauty of a video, best channel on KZbin hands down.

[@TheHoonigans]

mathieulebum Thanks for the comment man! Glad you’re enjoying the content!

[@Acedeucedub]

I've never been the biggest fan of this style/era. But this car is BEAUTIFUL!!

[@StankLip]

Absolutely beautiful car. That detail. The sound. Mind blown!

[@thepaintslayer4821]

When I see these car's all I think about is ZZ Top's Eliminator album... These car's are rad as hell...

[@nolanmacdougall1154]

Nothing better than a ford in a ford

[@jacobleech3136]

That's not a hot rod, it's a masterpiece 👍

[@StellarGale]

This is simply perfect custom hot rod. Absolutely beautiful.

[@TheHoonigans]

Everything about this car was incredible. The craftsmanship really shows.

[@Layer6Productions]

Dave clearly loves building cars! This is absolutely beautiful. An amazing combination artistic vision and mechanical knowledge. My only question is...who are the 27 people who didn't like this video?!?!?

[@mk_cichlids]

To be honest, that is the perfect chop! Beautiful car. I'd almost be afraid to drive it anywhere.

[@nickyscarfo136]

Galpin and Dave are really keeping customs and period correct hot rods alive.... This is a work of arT this is why period correct customs and hot rods and choppers is the only way to go.... For me

[@samsonian]

I am usually no fan of trailer queens, but this thing is a level of automotive art I have never seen before. A 20/10 for style points.

[@gavinbugg8824]

The paint work is insane 🤩 lots of love put in this build 💯👌

[@TheHoonigans]

The crazy thing is that paint job took them 10 days...

[@rogermishler8794]

The Ford 427 was a pleasant surprise! The use of genuine 60's parts like the Cragar steering wheel and white shifter boot make it extra sweet.

[@throw1932]

would be sweet to see more true period correct rods like this. I have immense respect for guys like Dave. should be every little boy's dream to have the attention to detail this man has

[@mannys4539]

As someone that lives in a state where rust isn't prevalent, it's guaranteed... that is the cleanest undercarriage I have EVER seen!

[@АнтонАнонимусов]

Chase: so did you chop the frame? Dave: i just made a new frame. Me: dying But of course he did.

[@k.k.hickey4624]

I follow Dave on Instagram. He's always one of my favorites to see updates from, one of the most badass builders out there.

[@TheHoonigans]

We need more people like Dave in the automotive community. Someone that shares his passion as well as tricks on how to create such a masterpiece.

[@jakemj03]

I can't believe how much the underside is glowing! Frickin' amazing!!!!

[@dfactoryrat653]

That car looks even better in person. Beautiful at every angle. Even the bottom side.

[@dez1377]

the real reason we watch this...the passion in every detail.

[@nathanlinder2485]

I remember reading about this thing in I think hot rod years ago. Amazing to finally see it in motion. Absolutely beautiful

[@TimMinnesota]

Very excited for Call out Kings to start up again. The first call-out was super fun to keep up with. would love to see it happen again but with people who can finish their cars

[@edwardmihevic2214]

wow, I love seeing cars taken to this level!!

[@bennettgulstrom603]

The cleanest build to ever be on Build Biology!!! Also the most humble builder!!

[@bertusbob]

I'm not a Hot Rod fan, but this one is a phenomenal piece of amazing craftsmanship, wow..

[@jtheglin1640]

Damn I cant even find the words. Thing is incredible! The small touches and ingenuity just put it over the top. The kind of stuff you dream of

[@planetjakebomb]

I love the double rev and camera angle of the car parking thing they do at the intro to each car

[@TheHoonigans]

You guys asked for that on our last video, now we are making sure we can get some solid audio on there for you guys as well.

[@parkerjanelle7853]

I love how chill Shuten is. Every custom piece of this rod he’s just casually like “Yeah, I made that.”

[@chrisvlogz6206]

Clean is a understatement

[@MichaelTV44]

I love the window that shows off the engine.

[@Want2gofast]

So beautiful. 33-34 Ford coupes are my unicorns!

[@tommcintosh4778]

Great to see a clean traditional rod on here, I wouldn’t be mad at few more!

[@weedconnoiseur]

They are trusting that floor jack wayyyyy too much! Stay safe! Get some jack stands even if it's only a secondary.

[@PiersonOchoa1932]

How am I supposed to go burn off a set when you keep posting all of this amazingness??!!!

[@TheHoonigans]

Sorry, we will stop....

[@PiersonOchoa1932]

Don’t.

[@dieseldabz7104]

Got a '34 Ford Pickup sitting in my shop at work that was chopped and had work done, motor swap etc but the owners older now and never drives it. Just sitting collecting dust unfortunately. I love this car but not a fan of the color scheme but that's just personal preference so it's all good.

[@scotti_wan_kenobi]

That's a proper 60's style show car. Insane amounts of detail! I wonder how many hours went into it.
