I was watching a replay of this show yesterday, and thought this exchange was pretty funny:

(on a '67 GTO)

Goofy headband guy: "She sure runs great, but I think we need to add fuel injection."
His hired wrench: "On a '67 GTO? I'm disappointed in you as a person."

That was a new episode. I saw that and laughed. Thge car came out nice though. Not crazy about the paint color combo.

I watched Danny on Letterman the other night. he said there were nine of them when the show started and now he employes 47 to keep up with the demand of the show.

To whom ever may not know this, Danny owns a huge car collection, a night club and a tattoo parlor. All are well known in Vegas. My friend stopped by his shop a year ago and ws able to meet Danny. he said Danny couldn't have been a nicer guy.

I really like the show. Ive seen every episode.

It seems like Danny is a really nice guy, really comes through

now the fast and loud guys... not sure, could be cool, could be jerks

Is the 67 GTO the one you guys are talking about the purplish blue convertible he did? if so I dont like how he blacked out the chrome

The guy from Fast and Loud likes to fart in a crowd and then watch to see their reaction. JMHO

I really like the color they chose for it, but call me plain, I just dont like when they paint in graphics or make cars 2 tone

Also pretty surprised they kept the Pontiac and didnt grab an SBC or LSX

So far Danny has done 3 Pontiacs on the show and they all were finished with a Pontiac motor, so he is cool to me.

Yes, I think that he does see the added value with a Pontiac engine.

Not into some of the stuff Danny and his guys do, but hey, it's television. I do like Danny as a person, he seems 'real' and is very sincere.....a fun guy to talk cars with, no doubt. Sopme of his builds are excellent, some not so much, in my matter of taste. I'm not into the whole "skulls-tattoos-death-pirate-zombie" theme, though. Just because skulls are painted on something doesn't make it cool. I outgrew that kind of sh#t when I was about 8 years old.

I'm with you on that. I saw the show for the first time, last week. Danny really does come across as a down to earth, nice guy. For that, I like the show.

Drag racing. An adrenalin rush like no other. It felt like going into combat, tasting your first beer, and losing you virginity, all in about 8 seconds.

I almost fell off the couch when a customer brought him that firebird with just the body on a frame, (no glass, interior, doors, front end, I don't think there was even a powertrain) and bandana guy said "Sure - we can build it up for $15,000."
