00:00We got to use some of my cars for my collection on the show, Shifting Gears.
00:04And this particular one is one of my bad-ass babies, 555 I call it.
00:09It's a 55 Ford Club Coupe combined with a 50s T-Bert Elements.
00:16All handmade, nickel instead of chrome.
00:19It's got a Hotchkiss chassis on it, so it's more like a stock car underneath.
00:23On top, it's just a bad-ass car.
00:26And on the show, we're doing it because it's a very, very sophisticated electronic system
00:32between the engine and the transmission.
00:35So many details, you'd have to see it.
00:37Typically with my designs, though, it looks so subtle.
00:40People go, that's a really nice old Ford.
00:43In a good way, I like that because that's how I did it.
00:45In a bad way, there's no, even the shows, it looks like you just really restored an old 55 Ford.
00:50This is anything but a real 55 Ford.
00:54It's badass.
00:55It's extremely fast, really loud, and really comfortable.
00:58It's the triple nickel.
01:00I call it three fives, triple nickel.
01:02Because it's nickel-plated instead of chrome, and it's 55.
01:05That's what it is.
