Nothing better than seeing a guy may age with the smile of an 12 year old boy with his first real bicycle. That feeling isn't captured much after that age. His dream came true and he wears it on his sleeve, where it belongs. Very cool to see somebody that excited and happy with a toy!!! I'd smile too! Who wouldn't?

@loucostabile 3 года назад

Hi Chuck, You're right, the cars can keep you feeling like you're 12 years old again :-) Lou

@terylmadlem9558 3 года назад

Lou your conversations with the owners, and the unbelievable cars make your channel special. You seem to bring out the character of the owners, and the cars special features. Thanks

Hi Teryl Madlem, Happy to read you're enjoying the episodes with me. I think the secret is I become mentally about 16 years again when I'm around the cars :-) Glad you're along for the ride, and you're welcome, Lou

@arnoldanderson1501 5 лет назад

What a gorgeous car, the only thing that could improve it, would be a nice little 289 cubic inch "Ford" engine. Good grief, all the money spent on this car and then cheap out on the engine!

@loucostabile 5 лет назад

Hi Arnold Anderson, Glad you enjoy the looks of this car :-) The 289 would be a nice touch, Lou

@kenyork1107 3 года назад

Very nice 40 , my older brother had one in Nashville . I went in the Navy and told him if he ever sold it I wanted it . Well when I came home he traded it for a 64 Comet , we both were sick I have been ever since . Dont ever get rid of it .

Slick build, very nice car. I'm not into the modern leather interior and the Chevy 350 though. Needs a flathead back in it, maybe with a blower, or at least a Ford V8.

@2mikelim 3 года назад

Tinted windows on a 1940 ford? Caddy didn't have that till 49. Had they been newly made and retro fitted? Or is it a spray-on tint?

@loucostabile 3 года назад

Hi Michael, Hmmm, not sure how the windows on this one are tinted. Lou

@2mikelim 3 года назад

@@loucostabile I had seen many YT postings of this model and its variations with tinted glass. Perhaps a company had been formed to make new tinted glass for cult classic cars such as this. Couldn't had been a sprayed tint as these will be blemished with time under the sun. Worth investigating, as it'd be a stray off period correctness had new tinted glass been added.

Sacrilege!!! Chevy motor in a Ford,just plain wrong🤓

@loucostabile 7 лет назад

Hi Rob Mitchell, "Sacrilege!!!" I have to say Rob, your comment made me smile :-) Usually I'd agree, however this one is so well done and well put together that I can ignore that.. It's highly likely if we did not tell you it was a Chevy engine under all the chrome and polished aluminum, you'd love this one too :-) Lou

@loucostabile 2 года назад

@Irishfan 7 месяцев назад

I was liking the car until he said it had a Chevrolet engine in it. It is a sin to mix manufacturers' components in a car. A Ford car should have a Ford engine only. A Chevrolet Engine should only go into a Chevrolet car. General Motors was sued for putting Chevrolet Engines in Oldsmobiles. You just don't put any engine, but a Ford engine in a Ford.

@scottbrady7499 6 лет назад

so it's essentially a 1970 nova V8. with a WHOLE lotta Dearborn Michigan and interior appointments that hold up the early history of Ford. magnificently, I might add.. Wonder why the people developing this resto-mod didn't consider the very capable Ford 302 v8 for this. i'm thinking configuration of the engine bay works better with the gm 350. a little more horse power, and a better fit is a win-win in my book. but there are strict fomoco heads out there that always reject the notion of a switcheroo. howbout' a four speed 454 tucked into a 1971 challenger? mopar freaks would definately be underwhelmed.
