It was the first of the new season, the knucklebuster episode. At the end of the show he has a bit called "what are you workin on?" I had sent a picture of my senior dragster in to his website when he was between trucks show and the new gearz. His producer emailed and asked for more details because he might want to use it on the new show. We took the pictures like they asked us to and wrote a short deal about it. Then the week of the new seasons show on the Wednesday she (his producer ) emailed and said "make sure you watch. He is using this week." I like his show because he is real. I can tell as a mechanic that he is one or at least has that skill in droves. just the way he andles the tols . cant expain it , It is a tradesmen thing. You just know immediatley. He scored huge points here because he spent some of the time showing off the Upholstery my wife made for the dragster and talking about her making it and even said her name. She was embarrassed but thrilled. She likes his show anyway because his is exuberant, fun , happy and does not swear or bleep or talk dirty. She will ignore all the others but sits down to watch his even when he did the truck show before. She seems to have a thing for good natured rascals with hot rods I guess. ;>). He spent a little time showing of the old 62 slant sixes 6 carbs too. Only down side was he started the show by saying "we normally talk about what the young guys are working on. Look what the old(er) guys are working on"I seem to recall that he and I were born the same year! Older! Anyway it was fun and more than i ever hoped for. I said to Linda afterwards. "you had no idea when you were taking your 4 H sewing classes that your sewing would be on TV all over North America, did you?" She just waved me off and blushed.Yeah it was nice.
