Thanks for the kind words guys, but I am no better than anyone else. I simply made my big mistakes before the internet came in vogue...and I made a bunch over the years!?! I see genius in everyone on our forum and have learned from all of you many times over. Tush, I wish I could figure out how to video as well as you...that’s the future! Soon all the forums will be video using 3d cameras.
As for the Velocity show...my wife and I watched it when it first came out and we laughed like crazy. Watching a crew who are used to buying parts that bolt right on as they are confronted with a hand-built car was very funny to watch! I love watching Gas Monkey, Misfit Garage, and all the other reality mechanic shows these days. Once or twice a season you can pick out a TR3 tucked in the back of the garages. I also know I would never buy a car from any of those guys!! I cringe every time they install suspension parts with impact wrenches. But, that is reality!?!
Oh, the only show I can say I might actually buy a car from is Danny on Kounting Cars. I haven’t caught them doing any no-no’s so far, but then they don’t really show the nut and bolt work on the show. It’s nice to have some gear head shows after all these years...and Tushes are some of the best in my book!!
