Built to be Driven one off NASCAR Inspired Torino Talladega   George Poteet's Rad Rides Built Talladega At any show there might be a ride you call out as your favorite with your buddies.

For me, with George Poteet's Rad Rides built Torino Talladega, I've been lusting over this car for almost a year.   (Click any picture to see it full size)   I saw pictures of the Talladega either online or in a magazine, but at the time, it wasn't killing me to see it.

Still, it wasn't until the 2012 Grand National Roadster Show debut, when I finally saw it first hand... in metal.  Should an unfinished car shouldn't be your pick for "NOT TO MISS"??  ...

An amazing car modified in ways to be described below, but then, in this drawing, it FLIES off the page. Love it!   As a bonus to the 45 Pictures of Poteet's Radical Torino Talladega I shared, here's the drawing that inspired the car. Brian works closely with Rad Rides by Troy to detail the lines and final shape. Rad Rides then transform the art into real metal shapes. Poetry! So here's the details on what went on... followed by some other choice drawings by Problem Child Kustoms.   (Click any picture to see it full size)   Can you pick up on a few ideas that didn't make it to the final design? I found a couple!       Well? What you think? How to draw the perfect hot rod? Let's ask Brian to put it on paper while asking George Poteet to dream up something...
