WOW...some nice work there, definitely a sweet resto. As for Boyd's vehicles, I have seen some of his work in person, I was not very impressed to say the least.

exactly. I've seen a few of his cars and watched that build of the twin turbo Vette on the show and I'm stunned people pay him to build cars. That Vette was one of the worst designed, half assed cars I've ever seen, and it was six figures too.

Now Foose on the other hand, I've seen a few of his cars up close and His attention to detail is insane. There's a guy that takes one to the Jackson Outlets shows sometimes. It's a green '60's surf wagon and it's simply amazing. The dash and entire interior was custom build and hand made from scratch and it looks unbelieveable.

Another guy I really like is Jimmy Shine. I like his attention to detail, dedication to the old school designs, and the overall vibe his rides have.

He might make cool cars, but he sure came off like a world class ass hosting a SEMA TV how on TLC the other night. He really came off as a jesse james wanna be (as if jj isn't bad enough), dumb flat billed baseball hat and all. He really made the show unwatachable. Perhaps he needs to stay in the garage.
