The Rolling Bones Hot Rod Shop - The Poteet 1934 Coupe

(note: this is an art film inspired by The Rolling Bones Hot Rod Shop. It is a non-commercial piece.)
Defining the term "Hot Rod" is about as elusive as trying to find a deuce roadster that's been stored in some old farmer's barn since April 1st, 1932. It can and does mean many things to many people.
For The Rollng Bones Hot Rod Shop, it's about using many of the same parts and building hot rods the way they were when they were simply Hot Rods. While those men had no interest in the history they were creating, The Rolling Bones do. They were simply trying to go fast with what was available.
The Rolling Bones are simply trying to capture the look, the feel, and the soul of a late forties - early fifties Hot Rod with a story to tell.
There are lots of people in this world who claim to be artists but there are only a certain few who can put that very elusive magic in their work.
Great Hot Rods are also works of art and The Rolling Bones will argue that point with you until the beer runs out. Like a romantic painting, when you look at it, a great Hot Rod will tell you just enough of its story to grab your emotions and let your imagination take you as fast and far as you want to go.
That's what they build, stories, in The Rolling Bones Hot Rod Shop style, one story at a time.

RIP Ken. My deepest condolences to your family, loved ones and friends.

An absolutely beautiful traditional hotrod. Every detail has a purpose, but the car looks like something you can drive. NOT like something that belongs on a spinning display at a car show for a bunch of dreamers, Well done.

[@ultrajunk]

One of the best looking cars on the planet....Without a doubt! Pure vintage style! Not like some of the cartoon crap they are slapping together nowadays....and they have the nerve to call them hotrods. Great Video!!!!!!

[@jimmusch1124]

The way hot rods should be built! Probably, cost as much, as a high end finished rod. This is the way they were. Great job, guys!

[@tfeverfred]

Very well done. Thank you.

[@alfaubrom]

bright eyes an a cool hot rod who needs breakfast ,this is so tastefully done, inspireing me to get loads of little projects finished an crack on with my 1965 Sunbeam bonneville esque streamliner,lots to do but sooner started nearer to finished. i dont really do new cars, allways walk away from em apologiseing sorry its modern you know.. great workmanship an movie..

[@akbo47]

I feel this, the movement of the sun, shadows, reflections, looking up.....it's far distant memories of riding in a basket on the seat as an infant looking up at my dad driving..

[@slipsonic]

at first glance it looks like it might be overdone with shiny paint and just too finished all around, but then you get closer and see that the paint isnt perfect and the engine isnt chromed out and no door panels etc. I LOVE this car, It is absolute perfection, I like how it doesnt have white walls, this car is too cool for white walls, absolute masterpiece!!!

[@saraspitefull32]

Wow thank you for sharing 👍

[@mannydecastro8604]

[@TheShadeTreeFixitMan]

Slow enough to actually "see" the car and its details. Thanks! Great video.

[@boboshop55]

Wow! Everything about this is Nice.

[@Trackstar2211]

Wow, what a great video. Cool car, good music and someone using a video camera and not a potato. Good job all around.

[@DYNODANNY2]

Love this video, it inspires me to build. Good work Rolling Bones!

[@topless51ford]

[@juanojuan]

I love this video... it makes me dream

[@whitebirdfilms]

1st song - Conor Oberst, "Cape Canaveral", off of self-titled album 2nd song - Aphex Twin, "Lichen", off of Selected Ambient Works Vol. 2 3rd song - Ryan Adams, "Let It Ride", off of Cold Roses We have got a lot of questions about the music. This video is definitely promoting theses artists' music and helping sell their albums.

[@punkperes]

muyyy buen videeeo muy inspirador saludos desde merida mexicooo

[@TheCruizer]

Oh sweet! Very nice ride! In good tradition with the Pierson Bros coupe, the Spaghetti Benders 34 and the SoCal coupe... Great!!! The vid is also well done. Very atmospheric! 10 stars from me...

[@AshbalGabriel]

awesome video. i love the images and the music, very good song choices ! i wouldn't have though of Aphex Twin on a project like this, but it works perfectly. Bravo !!!

[@bobby4277]

Sure wish I could have heard what this fine machine sounds like, but noooo, music must be played over all of it.

[@derreasd]

душевное видео. спасибо.

[@whitebirdfilms]

@biggzyboys thanks biggzyboys, we appreciate the feedback, a lot.

[@whitebirdfilms]

They'll respond if they see the comment...or go to their website. This is just an art film inspired by them...I don't know much about the car itself. Thanks for the positive comment!

[@lukeshytalker02]

i love this car, George Poteet has got too many nice cars, i think he should give me some , nice vid by the way, sound level was a bit high on the last song tho, i nearly jumped outta my skin lol

[@csk004]

Hi guys, if there is such a thing as bells and whistles, well you sure rocked mine. Are you still out there? Hows' the car? And if the lottos won ya can build me one for sure! You guys rock . Look out Foose theres new kids on the block building real rods.Love it . God Bless

[@cruisinhighboy]

absolutely great video. I like to see more of the shops work. But is the rods rear suspension to soft?

[@shartne]

why are the leaf springs rapped in black tape? and I love the car.

[@tubbytommy]

Is that some NASCAR influence i see with the duct tape wrapped around the leaf springs? duct tape is good shit!

[@rickystapleton9592]

I noticed that. What's the idea?

[@whitebirdfilms]

Don't know the specifics on the car...if either of them want to reply they will. The songs are varied...expect an "offline" reply.

[@HawOfSteel]

Camel Toe racing 1:44 LOL

[@doesrealityexist]

Rear wheel cylinders are installed backwards, no emergency brakes...no cable. The list probably goes on.... I have seen a few RB cars and up in other shops to get re-worked and road worthy. They are "art" cars ...nothing more. You won't find many post war cars with extended wheel bases.

[@motanelustelistu]

What car is as base ? 1934 Ford,Pontiac,Chevrolet,Chrysler,Dodge what ? What does poteet means ?

[@danechris16]

+motanelustelistu ....The car is a '34 Ford, and a Poteet means to own a bunch of cool cars. he is George Poteet. Google him!

[@mrvladtepes]

hey, what's that song? who sings it?

[@mrvladtepes]

disregard, found it.

[@RDAUGIRD]

Would be better if you could hear the engine instead of some modern music that doesn't match the era this car is attempting to emulate

[@MrLrry1266]

Video very well done! Yet, the Rolling Bones? Not clever and Camel Toe Racing is just simply childish. Nice car though and a true basic hot rod.

[@camgnilpe9300]

nice to hear a real grown up person. give yourself a gold star on your grown up fucking forehead. then look in the mirror at your grown up self and say I need to mind my own business and SHUT THE FUCK UP!
