Big news tonight from Pomona, California as George Poteet’s 3-Penny 1936 Ford has won the 2019 America’s Most Beautiful Roadster Award. The car was built by Colorado’s Pinkee’s Rod Shop and is the second AMBR award for Poteet and the first for the already highly decorated hot rod building operation at Pinkee’s. This car is immaculate and follows in the tradition of the award as honoring impeccable construction, imagination, and craftsmanship.
George Poteet has funded and participated in some of the most significant hot rodding operations and builds of the last 30 years. He has had cars win awards at the top levels in the industry. He has driven more 400mph passes on the Bonneville Salt Flats than pretty much any other human being on Earth, and to top all of that, the man is a good soul who understands that these cars are part of a larger culture he is helping to support.
We’ll have more on this amazing car during the week but for now know that this is the winner of one of hot rodding’s greatest honors!
Money talks.
I don’t see it. The car is just bland IMHO.
What if the name Poteet wasn\’t part of the build? There were better cars.
Not a fan of that color combo at all. I am sure it is a very nice car but there was certainly other contenders that looked more detailed.
The car does have custom features! Pinkies is a top builder! The car is slightly bland, but four other were really bland! Quality and beauty are in the eye of the judges, but I ranked it in the top three for sure!
The haters are gonna have a field day with this one.
