Congrats Frank!!

I don't know anybody else with the confidence in their build to go out and start doing burnouts the very first time the car moved on its own power!

I'm glad to hear the show went well for you and Prodigy Customs. Keep up the good work!

first off congrats to the ring bros the car is simply awsome and being from wi even better, now on the filler there are only a handfull of people in this world that can truly metalfinish every piece of a car, every extremly straight car has filler in it period. Did anybody watch any of the shows on boyd or overhaulin the whole car is glazed or skim coated with a coat of filler and then primed and blocked and primed and blocked and primed and blocked etc., etc. filler is only bad if its put over crappy metal work or if its super thick every one of those cars in the top ten probably have the same amount of filler on them.

Default Congrats to the ring boys.

Congrats to Erv and the Ring Boys for the win. It was enjoyable meeting Erv and his wife. When Erv brings the car home I will have to go up the street and envy it on a daily basis. I realized we are neighbors and I didnt know it.

Congrats to everyone that made the show. Those are some killer cars!

Saw the Ring Brothers car on the Power Tour, figured that it would be hard to beat. You could spend an hour or two going over all the details on that car, which the Ring Brothers are happy to do (class act!).

I may get a in a bit of trouble for my opinion but that was certainly no "skim coat" of filler. I, and a lot of other people that saw the damage, was simply amazed at the amount of filler in both of those panels. There were more than a few people talking about it.

Did you happen to see the damage in person?
