[@rickwidlund3512]

Nothin' short of gorgeous ! Great car .

[@mxkguitar]

This car body was made 4 miles from my house! We were always so proud of Fisher Body!

[@namvet68]

Great job Absolutely beautiful. Nothing beats the look & styling of an older car. Modern cars can’t compare to the looks of a classic car. Again great job. 👍🏻

[@davidwright4537]

OK, you guys are over-the-top!!! Your attention to detail is second to none.

[@NormanSilv]

Beautiful restoration!! A true work of art.

[@davidtreichelpppj5304]

Nice job fellas... The photos reminds me of the time my brother and I did my 55 RANCH WAGON.... That SAFARI is rare indeed ! You guys saved it !

[@matthewkantar5583]

Really enjoyed the before pix, what a survivor!

[@explosiveboi6692]

It looked better before lol

[@ferrochinabisleri1587]

Everything nice, except for those wheels.

[@ChuckHedges-bv7bd]

Wheels are what they are..held on by 5 bolts..He brought her back to life...realy don't like wheels.

[@michaelcagle5938]

Agreed, needs something a little more classical in the wheel department.

[@mattrowan2680]

@@michaelcagle5938 Simply stunning work but I'm sorry to say I believe that those particular wheels detract from the look of this magnificent classic. Please remove them and replace with factory style wheels and covers. What a beauty!

[@lancedaniels]

Thanks for posting and sharing. Beautiful work.

[@dennygraham4238]

[@michaelcagle5938]

That dash is gorgeous!

[@ChuckHedges-bv7bd]

Takes me back in time.im 68yrs old.

[@richb419]

Hi nice work!! the only words I have when I look at the finished car is WOW! I miss those days when cars still had character! Acid dipping is truly the way to go. I've rebuilt cars and dealing with the rust is very challenging. Rich

[@joeswartz6181]

Old school restorers good job

[@donaldcunningham7683]

What a great job. Thanks for sharing.

[@iamacarnut]

That was an osem video ..what a great effort on the camara part..

[@linkpoison5511]

Great job!!!

[@jacobgardner5733]

Besides the cool wagon, I like the tune at the end.

[@davidsolloway9349]

Like # 1 ! Nice work.

[@jonathankountz7097]

Excellent work on this one but way more than I would have done... now you can't use it because of fear of some one scratching it or door dings... and I love the style of the old PONTIACS especially the wagons. The 370 is a cool engine.. growing up on the farm we had a 58 chieftain 4 door we used to drive to school. It had the 370/ 2 bbl carb but still had lots of power...

[@mattcombs885]

You brought her back to life again and then some!

[@jimroeger4742]

Fantastic, meticulous work! All GM 58’s were homely.

[@billterry9996]

Great built love what you did ❤

[@MarneMan8567]

Nice sled!

[@ChuckHedges-bv7bd]

Nice ya got her back..can save cars but we can't live forever, but they can❤

[@motorTranz]

Headexplodingly beautiful 😍😍😍😍 Thanks for sharing this!

[@normsweet1710]

Great looking Oliver, got a little whine in the gear box also , but most of em did

[@nertocs]

Hot Damn! A real car made with Detroit heavy metal.

[@opera93]

Thanks, great Work , & Creation. (* admittedly, I am OEM , with safety first, Fan).

[@jaygatz4335]

That was a true labour of love. The artists at Metalworks must have had a blast working on it. Too bad about the wheels - that style just doesn't work with 1958 aesthetics.

[@frankmartinez4856]

Beautiful! Just Beautiful 🥰to bad no narration 😳but still Great 😬

[@ChuckHedges-bv7bd]

She is beautiful.

[@sll-tt6bj]

Love that car rolling art

[@metalworksclassicautoresto9583]

thanks a lot!!

[@danielulz1640]

While I admire the vast amount of excellent work that was done, I would rather that it had been brought back to original factory specs and colors.

[@keithwallington4966]

👍🤩love it

[@joeswartz6181]

Well everyone has its own taste gor me the wheels are fine

[@keithlothery4067]

We had a 59 Pontiac station wagon

[@waynewilson4269]

My dad had a 58 safari . 3-2's ,air ride.

[@aintmanyofusleft]

Imagine yhe assembly line guys who built these originally, just picking the parts from stock. Bet they probably complained about all the trim and bling this car had. any Idea how many were produced? I love the 57 coupe too, so hard to find these today. Saw a 57 in Colo for sale couple years ago out in a field...in pretty good shape relatiely speaking. This one was super solid, I was surprised at the metal condiyion in your teardown photos...like garage kept forever. nice start to a stellar finish. beautiful!

[@Nate-ro9gv]

Beautiful 😍😍😍 car❤

[@bobpierce115]

I only wish the '58 Impala had the same larger, fancier fender ornaments the '58 Pontiac had. Interestingly enough, the '59 models both had similar (beautiful) fender ornaments.

[@oldman-zr2ru]

The interior and exterior look very nice, I especially like the steering wheel restoration. It's too bad about the engine and chassis modifications though. But, hey, it's not my car.

[@luisbatista1103]

No voice over?

[@richardthomas1566]

Car would be worth 10 x more with an original restoration and color scheam . Different strokes for different folks need to see some of the cars Charles Phoenix show cases.

[@metalworksclassicautoresto9583]

Can't say that we agree with that as a gorgeous "stock" restored 58 Safari wagon just sold at the Mecum Kissimmee auction $104k and one week later our wagon sold for $165k at Scottsdale Barrett. www.mecum.com/lots/1110246/

[@josephclarke4244]

Many guys have the ambition to accomplish this project the issue is money😢.

[@bradrock7731]

I would much rather have the 'Before' to be honest.

[@keithlothery4067]

I own a 77 Vista Cruiser with a 455 in it right now not driving it though

[@joeswartz6181]

They didn't show us how the exhaust was fabricated

[@bobbyhall1305]

My uncle always said a station wagons àre HEARSES

[@keithlothery4067]

We left it in Michigan after it rotted out after 4 years Oscoda

[@sll-tt6bj]

What paint you use

[@kevinbarrett9615]

Beautiful, but those wheels 😝

[@clevelandwaimarino4850]

are those the new art morrison chasis

[@metalworksclassicautoresto9583]

No, the wagon retains its stock frame.

[@rjh1394]

Hood script is missing?
