Mad Fabricators Presents: Stormin' Bonneville Episode 5

In this episode we head to El Mirage Ca. for a photoshoot test / tune the car in hope to finally see what years of hard work can actually produce!

[@westernblood3732]

Gene Winfield cameo! What an experience!

[@staccio80]

WesternBlood legend!

[@Gauseltown]

When Gene Winfield says "keep your foot in it", you probably should do that. What a great conversation between Lucky and Gene.

[@jeffweaver7011]

Got your friends together. Completed the car. It's so cool. Everything works. Passed tech. Got to run it. Met Gene Winfield. He thinks it's cool. Gives you racing advice. You get the cover of Rodders Journal. CONGRATULATIONS!! I would call this a WIN. If it was easy, it wouldn't mean as much. Can't wait to see it on the salt.

[@highspeednoblesgarage3152]

On the cover of Rodders Journal....how cool is that! Glad I subscribed! Loved watching this build!

[@Mosfet510]

The ending was a riot! lol Fun video.

[@The58stupot]

Congratulations Lucky. Every inch of your car is a thing of beauty and all the long hours and graft have certainly paid off. You can't beat the sound of a flathead on the salt buddy.

[@380.motorsports]

Legendary advice from Gene Winfield, “keep your foot in it”.

[@rick74304]

If the rod-father Gene says more caster, you listen. Awesome ride, Lucky. Be proud, stay humble

[@jeffreylevin1266]

Congratulations, awesome car. Loved the conversation with Gene Winfield. It just doesn’t get any better than that!

[@jakespeed63]

So happy for your team. You deserve it. Gene is the man. So glad I got to spend time with him, while he was here in Orlando. The real deal. Rodders Journal?? hurray!!! JT

Congratulations on the magazine cover

[@johnmathews3027]

[@protc]

My dad is in his late 70s and one of his dreams is going to the salts flats and watching the racing, Maybe it will be this year and we will get to see Lucky destroy the record in his class.

[@matthewmikac4435]

Well done guys. You deserve it. Keep going !

[@turdferguson9190]

The way Gene looks around before he says "fuck it" actually made me laugh.

[@justintyme5053]

Can't wait to hear this flattie at full song. Good luck.

[@shadetreerodder]

Excellent! Fantastic series great production values. And it's my favorite poison, Hot Rods!

[@kalanirobb54]

Coolest chop top car I've ever seen ! Gnarly!

[@jimcorman5842]

Congrats to all of you well deserved

[@goodspeedmakesthings4262]

I just stumbled on your videos yesterday and I love them. Keep it up!

[@racerd9669]

OMG just to see and listen to Jean Winfield was amazing, he the father of cam design.

[@andrel3]

Best part was when Lucky found out he was on the cover of the TRJ! Killer car, and videos. Thanks Piero, Tim, Bobby, Clive, and Gene for a great video!

[@christophernoto]

The music she makes when Clive hits the button at 17:55, Holy Cow! Sounds as good as she looks, and that’s saying a LOT! Sure grateful to get to ride along, here. 🔥

[@michealfigueroa6325]

"music" Only a "motor-phyle" would know the joy...

[@mikakari9498]

Nice work capturing that shock on the film. You are not every day in the cover of TRJ.

[@lorenzkurysromer]

Awesome series, really glad you are out there filming this stuff.

[@drewtdog1802]

Cant wait to see this thing on the salt this year. See all of you there . Congrats on magazine cover.

[@luckyburton4787]

Drew Tdog thank you

[@TheCanadianBubba]

This showed up in my recommended, 25 minutes never went by so fast ! +1 sub... now to go binge-watch. See you in August !

[@TheCanadianBubba]

Just as good the second time round !

[@lyon406]

You touched the hand of the car GOD......

[@daddybuddy]

You've got some great content right here and I'm enjoying watching your cool stuff like a little kid alone in a toystore! Hope you didn't miss the chance to have Gene give you an good luck autograph onto the dashboard of your ride! I was lucky enough to see and take a pic of your awesome car at the 2020 GNRS which I had the great pleasure to attend together with another six guys from our German Carclub 'Shockers C. C.' And I also was lucky enough to catch an autograph of Gene Winfield. I had him write it onto the garnish moldings of my 29 Tudor Sedan, which I had taken off of my car and with me on the hop over the big pond. He was the very first of my Hot Rod heros to stumble over my feet, while I was still waiting in line at the ticket counter for the show to open on friday early morning. Yeah,... call me a really lucky bastard! We've also been at Walden Speedshop for a shoptour! What an amazing place to visit for enthusiastic Hot Rod fanatics like us! Seing it again in this video now brings back some great memorys. Those few days of staying in LA to attend the GNRS and having seen many other sensations too had been the best time of my life! Best wishes and greetz from Germany!

[@brendannunya77]

Gene is the BEST!!!

[@RemodNC]

Such a beautiful rod!

[@uliwehner]

Gotta love Gene Winfield! going to be 93 this week

[@timothynewkirk2654]

Awesome Video! Soooo Kool to see Gene Winfield checking out the car! ...Newk from Kentucky

[@jerrylong381]

[@luckyburton4787]

Jerry Long I wish! Thank you...

[@dennisc.1189]

Congrats on making the cover that is awesome. The car is awesome as hell great job.

[@Ecosse57]

[@MADFABRICATORSTV]

“Fuck it put your foot in it “ - Gene Winfield

[@Sal9499]

Beautiful car, it could be nicknamed " Claustrophobia", when I saw you get in it my stomach tightened.... the claustrophobic feeling is hard to explain, something about the roof pressing down on one's head... I think I would have panicking when the door stuck.... I built what was one of the worlds first steel American Graffiti coupes (not a clone, but styled after) in 1975, it was a normal chop so I did not feel claustrophobic... Anyway congrats and very best wishes for making your dream come true, greetings from New Zealand.

[@dkcarroll13]

Now that’s a badass video!

[@nickpappas4133]

Very nice car,you should be very proud.

[@luckyburton4787]

[@luckyburton4787]

Phil Landry thank you Phil

[@dh.media_]

Man I’d love to film one of these events! Awesome work sir!

[@jerrylong381]

Hell yeah Brother!

[@garycalvy1069]

Fuckin awesome 🇬🇧😎🇬🇧

[@bryantfields9476]

Love your videos. Beautiful car! But daaaamned ! Soooooo many ads !!!!

[@MADFABRICATORSTV]

Thanks.. So ads generate revenue and we are not some big production with huge budget.. it’s just me who films, edits and travels all over with money out of my pocket..there’s no big corporation or network giving me money to do this.. so when you see a commercial don’t look at it as an inconvenience cause you have to wait 5 seconds.. look at it as supporting me so I can continue to make more content for FREE.. for you to enjoy. That’s why the AD’s.

[@MADFABRICATORSTV]

Oh and by the way.. it’s not much revenue either like .12 cents per hour viewed..Sooooooo

[@uliwehner]

10,000 views and 4000 subscribers will not generate much revenue. this man needs 100,000 subscribers and millions of views to make this worthwile. don't skip the ads if you like the content.

[@wideline24]

Incredible car, well engineered and beautifully built. I can sympathise with trying to turn a speed on a loose surface, we race on sand in the UK, no salt lakes here. Out of interest what distance do you run at El Mirage before you hit the timing trap?

[@Mercmad]

I felt that fish tail effect in my Roadster. It feels like the diff is trying to overtake the front axle. And that was on the salt. I lengthened the chassis by 6" but life got in the way and never got a chance to see if the longer chassis would have sorted it. I ran my castor way up too, Just have to be careful when reversing because the wheel will rip out of your hands.

[@bigunone]

Seriously! Yeah dude your car is on the cover

[@Asphaltsquadron]

Well, WTF am I supposed to watch next week?

[@luckyburton4787]

MrAsphaltSquadron Piero has a bunch oh great hot rod videos here. I suggest watch all of them then watch Stormin Bonneville all over again 🤪 thank you for watching! I appreciate it...

[@MADFABRICATORSTV]

I have plenty of stuff in the works :)

[@randygandee9674]

You talked to Gene Winfield. He is a true hotroder

[@luckyburton4787]

Randy Gandee I have known Gene for many many years. Good friend and he is awesome for sure

[@kurtporter1323]

Dude, she's a beauty but it's not about photo ops right?

[@nzsaltflatsracer8054]

Hopefully!

[@kalanirobb54]

flathead?

[@toddolsen5421]

[@justintyme5053]
