Man, Randy's the coolest. He's got that humble, laid-back, southern Oregon ease while making some of the most outrageous and amazing automotive art. I just wonder what's going on with those pulse jets too!
This guys is amazing! He treats his work like an artist would! Starts from scratch and has such a passion for the whole process! Not just an engine guy, but you can tell he really loves the design aspect of every part of what ever he is building! Its sooo awesome hearing him show off at talking about his stuff!!! Id love to get to meet him someday!
the passion he projects just in explaining his ideas and vision is so real. you would need that love and passion to take on and go through with a build to that caliber. the time it takes to do just one small step of something like that is just mind boggling. credit to you my friend.
I love how enthusiastic Randy Grubb is about his work, it's a joy to see his passion. what isn't a joy is 40 5min videos uploaded at the same time by HRM clogging up my youtube feed
We all look at these amazing cars from history and dream about them. You see a classic Cord and know you can never have it. How cool would it be to just be able to build your own version? And it's even better because it's your own version. Everything is how you would want it.
I guess your using computers now Randy, in an interview with Jan Leno you stated you didn't use them. I'm glad your computer literate now, but I would hope you still keep your old school style, because that's were the majic in your creativity is. Thanks for sharing Mr.Grubb, if you ever need help bucking rivets, I'm an A&P mechanic/technician. Thanks again for all your beautiful builds, I really dig them, especially the Decoliner & scooters. Take care Randy, peace out TheBentley.
The Bugatti Aerolithe & Atlantic coupe were welded but it was very difficult to weld because you couldn't heat the magnesium at to higher temp because it would combust
Would be amazing to spend a few days going through stuff with the likes of him and Foose. Just different people than you will ever meet. If you could just soak up some of that motivation and vision......GAHH.
Totally agree . Another I love to watch is Marcel DeLey (?) and his sons . ( I only ever got to see the Alumatub by Boyd , but I have seen some of their work in Hot Rod mags and I am envious to say the least !
Funny seeing the guy crouched down, arms splaying out over the skeleton on the fenders explaining in pained terms about the intended effect of the proportions all measured and focused and then your eyes notice the front wheel of a motorbike behind him with the most ridiculous and outrageously large exhaust. Then you start to say, oh...!
I think he should drop the engine down and make taller trumpets, engine being down and back as far as possible is best, i know its not a racecar but the driving feel of a well balanced car is best bro!
Randy rocks but I would dropped have the motor that 4" and gotten longer trumpets (velocity stacks) so they would poke through the hood as he designed it.
What kind of crazy bastard makes a car body out of magnesium? I'd hate to get in an accident in one of those. For those of you who don't know, magnesium is extremely flammable and it burns HOT.
The Gospel of salvation of our souls: 💜💕❤️❤️❤️💖✨💖❤️📖✝️🕎💡💡❤️❤️💞💜💕For what I received I passed on to you as of [first importance]: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve. After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers and sisters at the same time,
The whole car paradigm is dead; power to weight, fuel efficient, motorcycles all the way. Start with a gas guzzling lemon, end with a lemon. Why spend the gas to move all that steel, carpet, glass, and the heavy brakes to stop it all... around...? Junk yards are filled with big bore gas guzzling 13mpg beheamoths nobody could afford to drive any more... or had the expertese to maintain and replace all those extra... parts... as they wore out over time. Like they say in the aircraft business... the best part that costs you no weight penalty is the one that isn't there...
