Rod's new Roadster

[Hemidog]

Rod Hadfield debuted his new 'Warman Special' at Summernats last month. It's a totally handbuilt creation commemorating a model his grandfather gave him as a child. Power is V12 Meteor so you might excuse it being a bit tempremental at startup. Rod has owned and built more rods and race cars than most of us have ever dreamt about

That is totally badass. I don't know why, but the way that thing starts up is totally cool. I like how it was setting off car alarms too. ;D

I looked at his T while I was out there. He does some REALLY cool stuff. The roadster isn't just big and loud, it's beautiful. Not sure it would fit in my shop but I'd like to try.

Yeah and his Supercharged Merlin engined '55 chev is pretty wild too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SIj2GVfua84

WOW :o

I'm sort of glad to see even the pro's have a hard time getting them started sometimes!
