Liz Miles on American Hot Rod.
 

not sure If I have been living under a rock, but didnt know Liz was working for Boyd.

You beat me to it....

I'm watching it now. Petty cool.:thumbsup:

Duane is calling her "Sweet Pants". :yes:

She did her new employee initiation burnout in her camaro.

Check it out right now or catch it on re-runs.

In a way its a plus and negative for her, IMHO.

But we do have to remember how old it is before it actually aires. So for all we know she might have left them by now..

-Todd

Yeah, she left a huge patch! :thumbsup: Sweet brunout :woot:

Who!
 

So who is Liz "Sugar Pants" Miles :question: ....... Wow "Sugar Pants" just did do a nice Burnout in her CAM ARO!

I still think that she is tryin to cash in on the whole "Im a girl hot rodder" thing.

NO WAY! I mean, why would TLC/Discovery want a chick on a car building show??? :lol:

EXACTLY!!:lol:

How long before she quits Boyd and ends up with Foose?

On Overhaulin', then Hard Shine, and who knows, mabe someday American Choppers or even Pimp My Ride!!. Cha Ching!! Wherever the money goes... right. :lol:

Good for her! I'm pretty sure she can hold her own. But I wanna know whats under the hood of that camaro and what exhaust shes running cuz it sounds great. It almost sounds like an ls engine. Anyone know?

Man she is a hottie!!!!!!!!:hail: :hail: :bow: :bow:

I might be mistaken but I seem to remember that she was on this site for a short time but since Scott wouldn't "sponsor" her she hasn't come back!

I have NO respect for people like that!!!!:mad:

John

Duane is an asshat. Plain and simple.

Liz can hold her own. I think she is intelligent enough to not bite off more than she can chew on her own... and in that environment, it is how you survive. Its not about slamming things together and she knows what quality building is about.

For those of you that dont know much about her... check out her web page: http://milesspeed.com/

Smart, witty, drives a real hot rod and is quite the little hottie... what more could you ask for??

(Liz if you read this... you already know what Im gonna say... you need to give Duane a little up with a dead blow hammer.) Actually... I hope your the one who puts him in his place.

i just want to nail her hell with that show. american hotrod use to be nice now its like the same old thing he does too many cars that look just alike mix it up some. that 63 corvette was a joke he wanted it all in one car.

I just watch those shows on mute, That bayofhay car is bad ass. That engine is amazing.

I think that dude hangs out here.

Yes he does. Saun goes by the screen name TwinSting. Great guy. He gave away a set of Mickey Thompson tires at our SEMA party last fall.

Too bad we had to listen to Duane make up some drama about the build of the twin turbo Vette.

Whos Duane ?

This is the first I've heard of her and I was impressed. Not necessarily because she's a girl but more because of her work ethic, enthusiasm, quick wit, knowledge/experience with cars, obvious intelligence, willingness to learn and ability to adapt so quickly in a "hostile" environment. She really has her S*** together it seems. I think it's rare to see that in someone that young (or anyone for that matter). And Daaayyyyum....that was a sweet burnout!

Al seemed to be impressed with her as well. I think he's a pretty accurate gauge of the quality of his coworkers. Everyone he "rolled his eyes at" in the past had a short employment there for whatever reason.

Good for her!


Duane is the shop foreman.

I agree, plus she's only 21. The asking for Scott to sponsor her may not have been the best idea, but then again she's a kid. The passion is there.

Im also only 21 and worked in a Hot Rod Shop at one time. The funny thing to me is that I feel that I have just as much knowledge and determination as she does, but because I am a guy, I wasnt "priased" for it, nor was I givin a partner with more experience to shadow and work with. I was thrown out there, and when I accomplished something, there was no surprise in anyones face. I see a double standard here.

Humility. And I sure hope she has it.

Personally I am turned off by the whole sponsorship thing and trying to sell herself out there. If you love hot rods then find a job or start a business that involves them and have fun with it. The minute you start making moves to gain noteriety for yourself and become a celebrity, then I think you've lost sight of what this hobby is all about.

Someone at Woodward told me that she had hired an agent for herself.

That's just stupid. :rolleyes:

Thats funny. But I did see on her website she would like to get into T.V. so I guess it probly smart to get a agent.

I'm betting she only lasts 2 more eposides until Duh-Wayne runs her off.

Nope, think like a TV producer who counts the numbers so they get advertisers - she'll be there a while, unless a bigger deal comes along for her - and guess what - they will do another Charlie episode and drama queen the entire show(s) around it.

Honestly, how the hell would Scott have sponsored her? I know she asked for it & what not. I am not 100% sure on how it all went down, but what does Scott have to offer her? Not trying to be a smart-ass or what not, other than saying "I am sponsored by Lateral-G.net".

I mean if she wanted money to put a "Lateral-g.net" sticker on her car & website, thats complete BS. Because, quite frankly, I'll put one on my car for free. :thumbsup:

I love how our standards drop when a chick can weld, or wrench on a car. I don't think she's that hot. But....it always makes them a little hotter if they can hold their own in the garage.

My 02 cents.
 

Not to hijack but how about that little blond girl that builds the buggys and trucks on SPEED?

I could see the girl form the 4x4 show now trying to rock crawl a 32 coupe she knows not the first thing about hot rods sure she can fab but not a hot rodder i think this girl here will do awesome and good for her to better herself through a great builder like boyd!
Not to mention if you watched the show you heard the best catch phrase i have ever heard on a TV show, when one of the shop guys told her he had a fast mustang, her reply was "isnt that an oxy moron" lol! a fast mustang:lol:
Good stuff

Jessie Combs, I think?

When I was 21, I only thought maybe 5% of women age 21 were hot. Now that I'm 55, only 5% of women ARN"T hot.

funny the same thing has happened to me at age 40

Never knew who she was but she does get a lot pf press. She has been in a lot of mags and small clips on shows.

As far as trying to sell herself with an agent I say smart move. How many chicks know what she does and add her age and ok looks and I think she is very much what the public will want.


I can't stand when guys go off on the person that is smart enough to make moves to get ahead. If she asked for a sponsor so what, how many builds on here lists all their free parts? She is smart to position herself where she is. Everybody who is complaining sit back and don't make any moves yourself and watch her blow up into her own show thinking damn if I had only??? Sucks being rich and famous.

Amen brother well put!

I chatted with her when she did the auto-X here in Marina and she seems very level-headed.Smart girl who's heading places,good luck to her.The asking for Lateral-G sponsorship was wrong but as was stated,she is young and the passion is there.

If she wants to be rich and famous, then by all means go for it. It is after all a free country. But I thnk she's costing herself respect amongst her peers in this hobby if she ever wants to be in the modification business. If all she's after is to be a TV host then that's fine. But don't ever expect me or anyone else to mention her in the same breath as people like Foose, Shine, and yeah...Coddington.

Sorry....I ain't jumping on that bandwagon.

I don't mean to jump down her throat, I'm sure she's a nice person who's passionate about the hobby. And yeah...I welcome female members into this hobby...I think that's great. I just don't like attention seekers. Never have...never will.

Sorry but I don't agree AT ALL!! It's one thing to try and get parts for your ride it's another to say " I'm a celebrity and if you want me to stay pay me!" Sorry, but in my eyes she's doing it for her and not for the hobby! I don't see a problem in her trying to be a TV celebrity but, really, trying to extort money to post on a web site? C,mon.............:rolleyes:

John

i was thinkin i could maybe extort money to NOT post..... cash, paypal, cashiers cheques from nigeria.... whatever is easiest:rofl: :rofl:

"I'm lookin' for Pound Notes, Loose Change, Bad Checks, anythang....Gimme some Monaaay"


Anybody here know the "artists" that sang that diddy gets a free adult beverage at the Lateral-G party at SEMA.:D
