      I really liked most of their projects (and Nunes giggety), but Sam getting needlessly often put down didn't go well with me. I mean was it necessary to downplay his efforts trying to get the cars sold and attract clients? Don't bite the hands that feed you. (I'm sure all clients were paid actors and whatnot, but still the principle)

    Shawn epitomizes what authentic reality entertainment can and should be. Not into Corvettes but Shawn is hilarious as he appears to be the consummate Corvette technical pro. As a 55 year old aviator my thing are airplanes but I must say he is mesmerizing and simply draws me in unable to turn away from his colorful impromptu humorous banter. Simply, Shawn Pilot is a one man band with a magnetic personality...I know it would be a real hoot to tip a beer with this guy. Note: I subscribe to merely a handful of RUclips content but Shawn's channel is always time well spent. Coolest guy on RUclips!

    Dear Shawn, as most of us I know you from the Gotham-series. Being a tv-personality myself, no wonder the production guys totally mistead you when they wanted you to play the wheeler/dealer guy. A blatant misrepresentation in my view, unfortunately epidemic for tv-production crews. Let your talent use it’s talent and please don’t ever try otherwise. Now the idiots will see that this channel of yours is a gem! Wonderfully made, passionate and with all your expertise on Vette’s a MUST for owners, enthousiasts and would-be owners.

    What is really awesome is that the C6 Corvettes are beginning to be affordable as good used cars for projects. Especially here in Ohio, these cars hardly ever see salted roads let alone rain. With an almost rust free working platform this is great since just about anything used is going to be rusted. I can't wait to get my hand on one. Love your channel, man. Can't wait to see that C3 you picked up being restored.
