i didn’t know that but it doesn’t make me feel any better about it. the choice of those wheels for that car pretty much says it all

I honestly don't get the attraction of slamming the vehicle to the ground on air ride suspension with big wheels.

One of my favorite fantomworks episodes was called "one for old miss".
They built up a customized 69 Camaro for Sean Tuohy. He's the father from the movie Blind side about Michael Oher. In the episode, Sean's wile Leigh Anne shows up for the reveal. She's the one that was played by Sandra Bullock in the movie. It seemed like Sandra got carried away and was over the top exaggerating the character, but she actually nailed it. Leigh Anne was exactly like the character portrayed in the movie. I was gonna link it, but they charge $2 to watch it on the interwebs. No thanks.

That was a great episode. And that is a lady that um, has a strong personality. Great car they built for them.

I know this isn't a popular position, but I think Mark Worman on Graveyard Carz is funny as hell. Yeah, he teases people a little to hard some times, but some of his stuff is great. Did you see the episode where he prank called Josh Rose at his new job talking like Jame Gumb from Silence of the Lambs?

^^ There's a funny side to him. And a dark mean side.

One more guy: Kindig's shop manager Kevin is very entertaining. I think he really loves what he does for a living. Good for him.

Jay Leno’s Garage is really the only one I like.

I'd like Leno's show a whole lot more if he just showed the cars that were being worked on in his shop and what they were doing to them.
As it is now, it's pretty much the same as what he did on the tonight show: interviewing celebrities who are just after some publicity. He's just doing it in a car instead of on a stage set. Frankly, I don't give ratzarse about celebrities or what they think or what they are doing or what car they drive in high school. I care about mechanical stuff a lot more than I do about them. |
