    Very cool - it will be neat to see the car around sometime. Did it turn out nice?

    It'd be cool if we could get Mitch M and his Gas Monkey Bandit at the PVGP this year...

    Hopefully it doesn't get parked in a garage for 20 years and never sees the light of day.

    Its a young guy so I doubt he'll leave it parked. I think his full name is Mitch Magoon from the fast and loud Facebook page. He commented on the Status where they announced the winner.

    Pretty Cool, but I would think they would have cleaned up the interior a little more. Pretty awesome none the less it was a local guy that won it.

    I really like the show even though I don't like some of what they do to the cars, but that TA was a cop out. Needed way more power, and rear drums?!!

    Just like that old motorcycle show Discovery had.....I started watching in the beginning to see how things are fabricated, how they make various pieces or swaps that they do......then the drama and other BS starts and I lose interest. I hope this show does not get too drama filled.

    I thought it was crazy that they rebuilt the engine instead of just getting a built one from a performance shop. Then after it shit the bed again, they didnt have a sbc in any of the cars in the shop???

    The car is nice except for that stupid monkey head instead of the original decal. I agree - it would have been easier to put a Jegs crate motor in instead of rebuilding it for the second time in three days

    Theyre getting kinda Hollywood now with all the celeb builds and nonsense. Cool to see that car local! I wish I woulda stopped at the shop when I was in Dallas last year!

    If it looks good, you'll see it. If it sounds good, you'll hear it. If it's marketed right, you'll buy it. But if it's real, you'll feel it. IG: @donuttrump
