Who dares cut up a classic 1955 Chevy 210 hood, rudely exposing giant dual carburetors atop a 498 cubic inch blown big block engine? Rat rod master fabricator Steve Darnell of WelderUp, that’s who. Nicole Johnson explores the theory behind vintage gasser class drag racing cars and drives Steve’s horrific creation.
MORE ON STEVE DARNELL: Located in Las Vegas, Nevada, Steve is the Welder Up creative genius with a passion for rat rods. Fueled by the desire to prove the naysayers wrong, Steve has always been determined to exceed everyone’s expectations.

Sounds like the A12 Super Bee I had in Philly, former S/S drag car in street clothes and slightly detuned born with 440 with heads and carbs done by Sox & Martin.
He said what every other owner has been thinking… "I've never sat over here and I'm freakin' out!" while grasping for the non existent "oh s***" handles.
The owner looks a little nervous
That's beautiful
this girl is a badass !!!!!!! chevy's rock !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This makes me want to build a Gasser Tesla plaid
This vid was so much fun. You are tough to be able to manhandle this big crude nasty ride!
Steve epitomized just about EVERY guy who let you drive His Car… I SO wanted you to floor it in reverse and into a J Turn and slam it into first and leave a trail of black up the street
If there’s any way to make more videos like this without having to wait so long in between, would be great
Still can’t beat the sound of a high performance v8 engine
I’ve watched all the videos an absurd amount of times, but I keep coming back to the gasser , it’s my favorite
And sorry to be redundant, but I tried to watch, I’ll just say other people’s videos , and they just don’t have Nicole’s energy , I lose interest
Damn, if she's married, does she have sisters? Is her mom daiting anybody? Don't say her dad.
I love them stickers with him crazy cars when I was in school back in the Stone Age
Omg love the sound of a good RAT motor
Nicole, I think your the first person to drive these cars, other than the owner/builder.
STEVE IS A BADASS STRAIGHT UP.
I love Steve's facial expression at 9:56. Assume interaction between him and Nicole, could not have been planned. And he let her drive it!
