I've been following along for a few years as John and his friends have built one of the most unique and creative vehicles I've ever seen before. He took a Shoebox '49 Ford body, chopped it, widened it and placed it on a BMW 335i and added a big 62 mm single turbo and this thing rips! It makes over 600 hp, over 500 lbs of torque and looks like something straight out of Mad Max/Road Warrior. Check out Maniacs Garage on RU-vid when you get a chance.

Hey all! I'm John's (the builder) father-in-law. So proud of him, seemingly there is nothing he can't accomplish. Never mentioned, but this build is while John actually runs 3 businesses within his real estate company. Also, this car is the latest in a line of approximately 11 cars he has built. Our john is the best!

You're killing me Sean! I tried to catch these guys when I took my Son out to UTI's Volvo program in Avalon Az. They were busy getting it ready for SEMA, so couldn't do it. Then, three months later when I picked him up, they were at Holley Fuel Fest the Saturday we left, and I didn't even know about it until I got home. I was seriously bummed. I followed the build from I guess about a year into it. This is the true definition of "Build what moves you". Obviously not everybody's cup of tea, but I thought it was just Killer!

Besides that, getting in a car without proper seatbelts and crashing it hard is another example of how shallow and dumb you are…😂 I pity your wife (if you even have one) and more your parents. 😢

@Davivd2 Год назад

This thing is totally rad. It's not a rat rod because it's nicer looking, but it's not a smooth and sanded out car. You can see the welds, and the builder is not worried about making it pretty. You can see the scuffed metal on the body. I don't mean that as a slight in any way. That gives this car character and makes it a beast of it's own. Awesome that this guy did this in his spare time and wasn't afraid to play outside of the box. I would drive this on the daily if I owned it.

Best car I ever owned was a BMW. A 2002 BMW 750il that was a beast. It never broke down, MARINE Corps maroon with eagle globe and anchor Florida tag. Marine sticker in the back window. From zero to 100 in 5 seconds flat. Road a drove like it was on rails. That is when those cars were the best of the best. Put 100k miles on it and never once broke down.

Etc, etc... I totally see your car in a movie, she has to pass a casting! 🙂Best and thank you. PS : And I do think that you have to try this, what you say in the video here : 13:33. PS : I find everything amazing about this car, I literally love the interior with those red seats. And the front of the car has a real personality (23:16).

This car looks like an enjoyable vehicle. I like the fact that you can move from automatic to sequential. I can see myself driving something like this. It is always interesting to see how creative people can get.

BORNAGN is hot! I could definitely see myself driving that '49 custom build Ford.

@@TheTheboomwearcompan still can’t believe I got to drive it and it drove perfectly!

@@AutotopiaLA BORNAGN is different, but so cool. Glad you had a chance to drive it. I've seen that car before and I always thought it was hot.

Thanks John, for some serious creativity. You just know it'll take Shawn at least a week to peel that grin off his face!!! Coming from a long BMW background (1st car was a '67 BMW 1600 in 1969 & there have been many since then up to a 330xi for the last ten years...), I'm curious about how you got past the iDrive software that ties nearly everything into it. Deleting stuff from the computer's control usually makes them lose their minds. How did you get past that? That sort of thing was soooo much easier in 1949! Really impressive project John, very well done!! 👍

Such a creative cool build and a blast to drive! Still smiling

Have seen some killer cars on this channel over the years and this car is no different. Unique, but very badass for sure. You embody all that is a custom car builder. Your creativity, and desire to make the two cars work together no matter what it took is impressive. Congrats!

@ryanmorgan5309 thanks so much. Yes, it was sure a lot of work to get them to work together, but so well worth it in the end!
