Its not the megabucks guys vs. the DIY guys IMO. Its the individual. If one person has vision, attention to detail, and style, then I dont really care if its a six figure Foose car or a home built rod. If someone has creativity and vision, then with some time and luck, they move up. Foose didnt start out @ 14 making megabucks rides, he moved up based on his talent, vision, and attention to detail (and some help from dad). I personally like the DIY cars more, but I really appreciate a car that was built with no limitations and the full vision is realized to the best of the designers ability. Its guys like Codington that piss me off. People that build cookie cutter, half assed, crate motor, no creativity interiored, plain exteriored, kit cars, then have the nerve to charge six figure for them. Theres more talent, creativity, dedication, and motivation found in places like OlSkoolRodz.com, and Hotrodders.com than all of Boyd's shop.
