you know what's sad, the network wants them to act like that for ratings......i was really excited when they first advertised that show, to be able to see car's built by boyd. After the first few shows, the shop guy with the bald head is the one that i would fire, he is a freaking baby........but i think this is the kinda stuff that the network want's people talkin about.....it is all about ratings, i bet bluebear is working in a different area of boyd's business for now.........
another show i use to look forward too was OVERHAULIN with chip foose, but that has gotten out of control too......all of his talent is now being used on people with lot's of money already. The idea behind helpin someone get a dream car that works there ass off, but yet, just can't get ahead. I thought that was awesome, but who am i anyways......i have not got near the talent to really judge the show, nor do i have the money to even be able to afford to build a car like the stuff chip does, i just wish they would stay real and build car's for people that seem to deserve it........i found a while back that my daughter had tryed to get my twinturbo'd mustang overhauled, and it was denied, not quite chip's thing i guess. I can't afford to really do much like what i see done on his show, but hopefully one day, i will have a car that makes people smile everytime they see it.
That is what i do when i come to this site and see your guy's car's.....makes me smile.........then networks should do a show on the car's you guy's build.........i think that would be kewl as hell...........

just ramblin, sorry................hotwheels of turborides

I agree, Overhaulin is horrible now. I can't watch it anymore. :(

They could of at least stuck to overhauling peoples car, who couldn't do, or afford to have done themselves. F- Lance Armstrong. :mad:

Overhaulin is pissing me off, apparently only "insiders" are getting their cars done... this was from the lady who owned the olds 442, that broke down and the show turned their backs on them.

I am starting to get sick of the priveledged always getting "perks"

shoot, i thought it was just me seein the bad side of these shows......if i had the talent to do car's like they can, and was offered the chance to do a show. It would be in my contract that we stick to the car's only, If it is building car's for peope that can't, then that's the show. If i was building cars like boyd CAN, that would be the show. None of the drama, just the car's and what it takes to build something so beautiful..........hotwheels of turborides

hotwheels...
I bet everyone of us agrees with you on how it should be. But sadly the majority of viewers would rather see drama, want to see Bluebear be a moron, and Boyd say oops on these expensive client cars.
Just look at American Chopper, I used to watch it alot when it first came out, but now its alot less building and alot more drama. It sucks to hear OverHaulin turned their backs on someone, I really enjoy the stories for some of those people, and can relate...but the producers care about viewers and money. What can ya do?

Tim

true that.........i guess my only thing is, and my mom always told me they won't feed my family, is my moral's..........if they came to me to do a show, it would be about my car's, or what ever, and that's it........or i would just continue on with what i have..........just me though......hotwheels

If there is an outside chance that Overhaulin is rigged, I'll never watch it again. Just say the word.

Not only did Lance get his GTO, but OCC built a chopper and gave that to him as well....The guy is quite an athlete (if you believe that biking is sport), and I applaud him beating cancer, but I have to agree that he is probably the last person who needs things like this "given" to him....especially with Sheryls checkbook in the house as well....

I’ve got a friend that pulled one or two cars from Boyd's shop because of this drama BS and them draggin their feet. If I remember right, the car was there for 8 months or so and nothing happened to it.

harshman,
Yeah when your watching, and they spend all this time on certain cars, you can just see like 5 or 6 cars sitting there in mid body work, and theres obviously no one left to work on them. Somehow I wonder how his shop makes money from this show.
