Wow, Thats hard to believe he's gone, personally I don't have much respect for his cars or his show, but he didn't look old or unhealthy.

Wasn't he on the heavy side?

Either way his early mods/cars rocked.

Anyone see that show on SpeedTV of all the greatest car customizers. Dudes that chopped 4 inches off the cabin height and altered the car's lines and shit. Auto Body work is so ill. I wanna learn to weld and do body work. Anyone know of a good way to start this?
