A few times. He's good at making something out of what is available on the cheap. I did like the one episode where they made the acrylic bubble roof for the t-bird roadster. Did not care for the car, but liked the process.

Yeah, I watch it. He's become a better fabricator since his early days. Enjoy his sense of humor.
Some of his projects are pretty weird, but some are quite interesting.

Ian seems talented, artistic, likable and humble. No fabricated drama or tight-shirt women. I watch it frequently and can hardly believe it's on TV.

Been watching it from the beginning. Always liked the show but I wish he would build fewer VWs. Big Daddy Roth used them a lot I guess, but he should use different chassis each time.

Yes love his show. No drama like most of the other shows. I have learned a lot from viewing his show.

This is one good reason to watch it! Like the show and interesting builds. I think some of them could have had a better job on the paint work though.

The fact he is friends with Gene Winfield is all I needed to know that he was the real deal.
I like that he is not afraid to tear apart one of his older builds to do something new with it. Nothing is sacred to him. Early on I thought some of what he did looked sketchy, but I think they just cut and chopped for time.

It was fun to see Dennis basically channeling his Dad.
A couple of our neighborhood kids served in the Army at the same time as Dennis, and became friends.
He used to give us Roth stuff back in the day; I think I still have it somewhere.

Yes I have watched him for quite a while.

Strange that his new season was on MotorTrend TV (cable) before I was on MotorTrend+ (paid streaming).

Is Gene Winfield stii alive?
I met him at a Route 66 Reunion in Barstow, CA a long time ago (mid to late 1970s), I heard that he ended up opening up a shop in California, City CA later around the mid 1990s work
I'm 77 yrs. old and he was at least 20 yrs. older than me shock grin
