    The way his face lit up when you mentioned copperhead. This man loves what he does. I remember when he changed things up after he found out what spike was doing with his creations. What a guy

    • @zachg8591
      @zachg8591 2 года назад +2

      @@nahimibrahim107 he talks about it at some point on gearz. Big blaze got sold and stripped for parts, I believe that’s the one he saw at a used car lot a while after it was built; ran down with a used small block rather than the crate engine he had installed. The bronco had a similar fate. Basically the network just dumped them off without giving him a chance to make sure they were cared for. He puts his heart and soul into everything he builds.

    Miss those saterday morning shows. Restored my 68 some yrs back when I had my old Gulf station I worked out of, they're getting rare, that my Dad bought new, was my high school ride, de-tunded it after a while to 400hp for pump gas but did build it to handle a little 100hp nitrous shot.

    @SweatyFatGuy 3 года назад +1

    Its funny, the only way I know who he is, was because my sister in law was somehow related to him, and he came out to my family farm to look at the cars my brothers and I had stored there. He didn't care about my GTOs, LeMans, Trans Ams, and Formulas, but he was jazzed up about the 69 and 70 Chargers my brothers had. He came by the farm while I was deployed to Kuwait, so I didn't meet him or anything. Been a gearhead my entire life, got into cars around 1980 when I was 11, bought my first one in 1982 which I still have. Its a 1967 Cougar, which is why I clicked this video. Sadly I have not driven my Cougar since 1987, other cars of mine have been through my shop, but I think the Cougar should be running next year.. 35 years is a long time to not drive a car you own.
