For anyone getting message: "Sign in to confirm you're not a bot"
All the videos on my website are embedded from Youtube. From what little information I can find Youtube is testing turning off videos for certain users that are not logged into a Youtube account or using a VPN to view videos. If you have a Youtube account, please try logging in and see if you can then view the videos on https://mvotd.com. If you're using a VPN, try turning it off to view the videos. There are a few other work arounds but they are pretty confusing to use. If you have the skills you might try searching Google for "Youtube Sign in to confirm you're not a bot" for a fix. I didn't see any that looked easy. Our best hope is that Youtube completes their test and realizes this is a big mistake. Until then, please check in daily to see if you still getting the error message. Sorry it took so long to figure out what was going on with this. Mel

A classic red, Bel Air hardtop that underwent a complete body off frame custom build! It has it all: leather upholstery, air conditioning, air ride and a 4-speed!
EXTERIOR: Timeless looks. The body is straight as a rifle barrel with no rust or damage showing. Painted a real slick red, it's polished like glass. All of the chrome and stainless has been restored or replaced. All new smoked glass and new window frames. It has the optional dual mirrors, rear antenna and gold frames. It is sitting pretty on a polished set of Billet Specialties wheels wrapped in G-Force tires, 18s in front and 20s in back.
INTERIOR: Genuine leather upholstery on the custom seats and door panels. Custom cut carpet on the floor with bound edges. The metal trim is painted smooth and glossy. The dash is decked out with polished billet trim and custom vents. It has digital gauges and clock, stock looking climate controls but are new electric slides and the air ride controls are under the dash. The steering wheel looks factory but is actually smaller and on a tilt column. Is that a 4-speed shifter? You betcha! All 3 pedals have billet trim. The headliner and visors were replaced.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Put your sunglasses on, you are about to be blinded! It is fully dressed in chrome. At the heart of it is a GM ZZ3 350-335 hp motor, the ultimate in reliability and performance. It has aluminum heads, chrome intake and a chrome dual feed Holley carb, an HEI ignition and headers. The highly polished air cleaner, valve covers, breathers and plug wire holders are a matched set. The front of the motor has polished pulleys and a serpentine belt, polished a/c compressor and alternator. It has power steering and a chrome power brake booster/master. The motor runs cool with an aluminum water pump and radiator with an electric fan. It has electric wipers with a chrome cover and the hood hinges are even chrome. The engine bay is clean metal painted a slick red.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: It is boxed and upholstered to match the interior. The floor is carpeted. A very nifty Coca-Cola cooler has been converted into a battery box which also has a master disconnect switch. Under the trunk lid and the jamb are painted slick.
UNDERSIDE: The body was off the frame for restoration and under this car looks killer! The floors are pristine metal painted gloss red. The chassis is all a smooth satin black. The suspension was all replaced and upgraded with an air ride system. Up front it has chrome tubular control arms and an upgraded swaybar. The rear suspension has new springs, bushings, lowering blocks and a swaybar. Concept One power steering system. The exhaust has stainless pipes and Flowmaster mufflers. The fuel system was completely replaced including the tank. Completely replaced and upgraded brake system with drilled and slotted discs at all 4 wheels, Corvette calipers in front and a working e-brake assembly. Looking up at the motor it is painted the same color as the car and looks brand new, it also has a high torque starter. A scatter shield attaches to a new Auto Gear 4-speed trans. The rear end is from a 1969 Camaro and has 3.31 posi gears and a chrome cover.
SERVICE: After our inspection we repaired the reverse lights, charged the air conditioning, installed new kick panels, repaired the horn button, tighten the lower ball joints, repaired an electrical draw, adjusted the hood latch and fixed an exhaust hanger.
CONCLUSION: Only 3,300 miles since this fabulous custom build was completed. 34 Ford and 57 Chevy hot rods never go out of style. This is a killer example!
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my professional impression of the vehicle.
Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video that explains the car's condition in detail.
