America’s Most Beautiful Street Rod 1933 Ford 427 “Renaissance Roadster” Build Project

America’s Most Beautiful Street Rod 1933 Ford 427 “Renaissance Roadster” Build Project
The culmination of a four year build at Frisbie’s Portland area shop. The craftsmanship, design and execution of the build is second to none. The hand-formed all aluminum body is coated in a vibrant PPG Violet Red with darker cherry/black tones offering a two tone sparkle tailor made to shine in the sun. And shine it did in Pleasanton.
Working from a Chris Ito design, the body was English-wheeled and hammered out of sheet aluminum massaged to match the angular, flowing lines of the concept illustration. The custom grille is a radical version of the ’33 Ford design flanked by equally distinctive headlights based on ’34 Chrysler lenses in custom-made housings. The hood is highlighted by recessed air scoops resembling the vintage Scott Super Slot injector hats of the 1960s. One off milled parts, many of which glow in brilliant chrome are found at every glance.
The chassis, comprised of 3/16-inch steel and chromoly tubing was built completely in house at Steve’s Auto Restoration. Polished and plated custom-designed independent front and rear suspension machined by EVOD Industries offers a righteous ride. There were very few off the shelf-parts used in the build, but none of these were used in their original configuration. When crafting a vehicle of this caliber, everything needs to be massaged to fit the specific needs of this one-of-a-kind creation
Horsepower, and plenty of it comes from an all-aluminum 427c.i. big-block Chevrolet. The block and heads were sanded smooth while the rest of the exterior engine components - valve covers, oil pan etc. - have all been custom CNC-milled to achieve the desired aesthetics. Even the Edelbrock tri-power intake has been modified to accommodate the Autotrend EFI setup.
The one-off craftsmanship continues inside, where the highest-grade leather was stitched over seats that are formed into the rear of the cabin. A 1930 Nash instrument cluster houses a full set of Classic Instruments, with a distinctive custom steering wheel offering good grip.
And those wheels! The rolling stock, and backing plates were designed by S.A.R.’s David Brost and machined by EVOD Industries.

Off-the-charts gorgeous! Seeing this at an auto show is one thing - but the true appreciation comes in watching the creation, assembly and craftsmanship in this video. Best 12+mins spent on KZbin in a long while.

Bondo & paint can hide a multiple of sins, in this case it was almost a sin to paint over the aluminum work.

I swear that I saw in the pictures at that car show, in the background, a Bugatti Delahay give a nod of approval. As if to say, "Well done son! You're everything that I could be if I was your age!!" That car looks like a Fedora that a sharp dressed man would wear for a night on the town!!! There has to be a better word than perfection to describe this car!!!! Someone tell me what that word is!!!!!

[@SebSar-ef4zj]

Ingenuity backed by precision workmanship through so much dedication and hard work .The end result is truly stunning. Well done to you fellows for producing such an amazing stylish car which appears to be moving even when standing still , finished in a mind blowing color scheme . A*A*A*A*A*A*A*A*A*A from me.

[@archieanderson2945]

As a retired bodyman and painter the level of metal work and fabrication are on another level. I worked at Vintage Grand Touring Automobiles in Toronto Canada, a Roles Royce dealer. One of the primer dealers in Canada for its time. I have only seen this level of craftsmanship at one other shop in Toronto called the Kreator, a motorcycle fabrication shop. This metal and paint work is absolutely stunning.

[@tomrobards7753]

This shop is a bunch of metal wizards !!!! To create such a car of pure metal no Bondo or lead filler , I don't remember this guy in Englands name but he's a great body man , haven't seen him on KZbin in over a year but he's awesome

That was pure art imho. But what really struck me was the Colour. I was amazed at how deep it was. But the shape, style, workmanship, quality of materials used, obviously totally bespoke with everything. I would not even want to think about how much it cost to build. I love the whole car as it looks so nice at any angle, and that nice V8, Icing on the Cake.
