We've been videotaping classics, muscle cars and hot rods for many years. But I really can't help but be concerned about where the fuel will be coming from. When I met this fellow who built his own electric car I knew I had to include it in this series. www.jdelectricvehicl es.com
1934 Ford Hot Rod Pickup. This pickup was built by Ken Rollins. He also builds custom bikes. We shot this video in Naperville near where we shot the Mad Max car.
1940 Stearman The auction mentioned at the beginning of this video was a Bonhams&Brooks affair held at the Aurora, Illinois airport. Auctioned off were pieces from the Palumbo collection which included a double decker bus which is in our video series and Steve McQueens U.S.Mail airplane which is not.
1970 Olds 442 Prostreet Before Jim Martino built his Mad Max Police Car he built this 442. Viewers in the Chicago area will recognize Bill Wildt and his Feathered Ladies at the end of this clip. Originally I called this series WheelsTV. When I started putting video clips on the internet I ran afoul of another WheelsTV that got there first. So now this series is called ,"theoriginalwheelst v".
