Midwest Speed And Power - Episode 1 (Pilot)

Bob Bleed is a builder that is enriched by the history of a family that has been involved in Hot Rods and Custom cars for over 50 years. Bob has a way of finding old survivor hot rods and custom and brings life back into them. We will be following Bob and crew as they seek and find survivor cars, build cool hot rods and some definite general nonsense.
In this episode Bob has moved back from Austin and is ready to open his new shop Midwest Fabrication. Jeff Peterson joins him in the new shop and has a survivor 34 Ford body and all the parts to make it a roller and mock up this unique hot rod.

Really nice, I like shows saving cars like this, no 22 inch wheels, insane deadlines, led headlights, just proper old hotrods.

[@protc]

That is going to be such a cool car.

[@drdjh2003]

Thank you for this. We need it with everything being shut down. I ordered a cam for my 55, probably getting ready to pull motor on the edsel acquired.

[@sjroff-roadfabrication7585]

Whats the progress on the yellow 34 Roadster. Wheres it at today. Thanks.

[@brendannunya77]

Love it!

[@spikewsspe]

Did you know 'Grancor' Speed Equipment is from the Granatelli Bros., Chicago, Ill. I think that I remember correctly. That was almost 60 years ago that I read about them in an early magazine.

[@mikemiller5985]

Man, You guys make me sick. I've been trying all my life to find the right parts to build my dream rod. parts weren't available. Every thing dried up for about 40 years. Parts , the cars the culture, all of it. And here you guys are, half my age, with more toys than I could ever afford. WOW. but now the parts and cars are coming out of the wood work and still can't build my dream cause everything cost 10X more now. HaHa. Keep up the Great work. MJM

[@glenncutright9769]

you guys gotter lookin good

[@ryankohlhoff6653]

What ever happened to this car. See Bobs stuff at autorama Detroit most every year but would like to see more stuff like this from him

[@MADFABRICATORSTV]

I’m not sure if Jeff still has it.. I think he traded it for something else.. you can follow his new show on IG @thehotrodpreserve

[@ryankohlhoff6653]

@@MADFABRICATORSTV thank you

[@clintoncox1764]

[@DeuceDevil]

I'm Hooked ! Can Ya Dig it Brother ? All the best from East Coast Canada. DDFFDD

[@ramstyn]

So much better with the top

[@jakespeed63]

Such a cool project. Did it ever get finished?? Actually own all the DVD's, but they are tucked away in boxes. Easier to click on here, for right now. Enjoying some morning coffee, out in garage, with the dogs, watching. Time to go work on a '54 Belair survivor project. Thanks for sharing. Disney Nick said, you are still holding his '41 hostage?? Can't wait to see it. JT: Orlando Misfires CC

[@MrJeep75]

That windshield looks like it was made from two doors

[@spiderbrandt4066]

Love your stile love the roadster don't paint it ,

[@lorollinls]

Pierro, are you guys going to make anymore of these?

[@MADFABRICATORSTV]

I’d like too some day.. especially if the channel does better and we can have a budget.. Bob and I will have another short episode of MFS of him that I shot a few months ago.. as well as a Baileigh Bio.. so kinda like it but not hahah

[@lorollinls]

@@MADFABRICATORSTV Very cool man. Thanks for the reply.

[@mikedunkirk2503]

I see the fenders off of Twilight Zone. My buddy's ol purple coupe. What ever happened to it?

[@MADFABRICATORSTV]

It’s in Texas I believe my buddy Jeff still owns it.

[@kringle02]

Are you related to the Baileys ,I got her from another video and you look just like my wife’s 2 uncles ,it’s crazy the were from Michigan .

[@bfinch00]

How do you get your car registered in California?

[@robbypro3370]

Didn't Jesse punk this guy on tv or something?

[@MrJeep75]

Real old bitchen ride

[@KOOLDAVE1953]

"Wiscosin"???Really???

[@suelob8193]

Ummm, you forgot to mention that you were fired by Jesse James

[@MADFABRICATORSTV]

Maybe don’t believe what “reality” TV presents you. Bob was not fired it was all for drama. This is why we do our own stuff.. these shows are “real” reality.. no fake ass drama.
