Been a bit hooked on it myself. As you say what they can make on site is amazing! The quality of the work always seems so good.
That team though seem to be a little silly at times!

Was going to say myself wonder whether its still going?

Agree, it has been a interesting watch, good to see the yanks building quality cars for once.
The upholsterers work is very impressive.

If you like hot rods and are going to be in the US in mid-June check out the Minnesota Street Rod Associations "Back to the 50s" weekend. There were more than 11,000 cars there in 2009. I think it's 18 June this year. The link follows:

I did read up that Boyd's son and Boyd's ex-wife have continued running it. But due to differences that two faced c*ck Dwayne left because Boyd's ex wife doesn't lick his ass like Boyd did. But it would be a real shame for the garage to close all together, apart from Foose, no one else does decent builds like they do.

Those two are fucking cowboys. One show I seen they put a huge fuck off spacer between the wheel and drum. That'd shag the bearing in no time.


My dad was watching that west coast customs and Duane was working there they presented a car to Boyd's 2 sons and his ex wife.

dwyane and boyd jnr certainly didn't get along, possibly because when dwayne asked him to sort something out as he was using the guys for some other works he was told "it's coddingtons name across the shop entrance, not dwyanes, so get someone else"

mike was in a car with boyd when it crashed and mike's face got smashed to fuck, it's all be reconstructed which is why he can't smile and talks funny

and, apparently, foose left boyd's when boyd's was facing bancrupcy and boyd never forgave him for that act of cowardice

there are loads of other things that you pick up along the way when you've seen all 60+ episodes of the show

Boyd as well did community service didn't he not long before he died? He was dodging some emissions laws or something to get his cars road legal.
