Ian is one talented builder. Sorry to tell him this, though, that is only a shade of a shop dog.
That said, talent comes in a lot of forms - Vegas Rat Rods most of them are so talented in their own right. I like Gas Monkey because I'm a small business owner and I know how breathtakingly hard it is to run a business - I know most seem to call Richard a hack (though he built that 50 Chevy), but there are few people who can manage the talented. In many ways, it takes even more talent to hire talented people and keep them focused on the task then it is to simply be talented. Conversely I know a lot of people who didn't get the advantage of a boss who supports the artist and are losing the talent they had.
It's even more fun to listen to a magazine editor rag on a shop owner as a hack.... pot meet kettle.
Meet Buick, THE shop dog. Well, the area just outside the shop. SBG is a bit too noisy and he will watch, carefully, the builds - but not too close :D
