    what a shame. i wasnt a fan of him and i thought alot of his cars were kinda the same... but he was a pioneer and i give him full credit for that

    Probably his wife and his ex wife working in the same shop. Or some of the little ****s he had working for him. Every time I watched the show the head of the workshop would just winge and winge. I hope his legacy is carried on. Always bad to lose someone who is passionate about cars and especially building them.

    Yeah the short dude. Not the one with the contorted face, he's very switched on. He now works for another shop that did a series on Pimp My Ride.
