Such a shame, he seemed like a nice guy overall.

maybe it was just me but i thought he seemed like a real prick. I thought the show was a joke and they cranked out the same boring builds with each episode. Anyway R.I.P

What you don't like it when people take perfectly good hot rods and muscle cars and hack the **** out of them?

what was his show! i forgot havent watched speed channel in a very long time American Hot Rod.

I met him several times he was an absolute prick, he treated his employees with total and complete dissrespect, and I honestly didn't like the cars he built. I'm sure people will argue this but he wasn't a hotrod builder sure he built custom cars that looked good in magazines and on tv if your into that kind of thing, but in person they really didn't deserve all the praise they got. But I will say it sucks for his family and friends to lose a family member

wow. saw this thread title and was like no way. def a shock to me :(
