I've shared this in the forum world in the past but here goes again...

I met Chip probably 17 or 18 years ago when I was wet sanding, cutting and buffing the Titanic for the R&M auction for Terry Cook. I also prepped Terry's other car for auction, Scrape, which is in the Petersen Museum.

Anyway, fast forward 4-5 years and I met with Chip at his shop in Huntington Beach while I was working for Meguiar's. Chip asked me over to talk to me about working for him, doing all the wet sanding, cutting and buffing at his shop. We never worked out a deal and I stayed at Meguiar's till I left and came to Autogeek. So I've known him for a long time and I've worked on a number of his cars. He one time offered to design me a custom artificial leg, I should have taken him up on that offer. My nickname with Chip is Robo, as in Robo Cop but I relate more to the Terminator than Robo Cop.


I met Dave Kindig the last two years at SEMA at the Velocity Cocktail Parties and then this year I was also invited to the Velocity Dinner and Dave was there. I've never worked with him or on any of his cars but he's super nice to talk to. When I first met Dave and he saw my polished leg he said, "bitchin ride". LOL.


I've known Chris via Detail Fest for 2 years. Like Chip he's very down to earth.


I've known Wayne Carini for about 4-5 years. I trained the guys at his shop how to use all the cool tools we all take for granted. When I first went to Wayne's shop the only tool they had for car detailing was an old Black & Decker rotary buffer. I also personally restored the paint on his 1953 Hudson.


Mike Brewer - I see Mike every year at SEMA, he wasn't at this last SEMA show. I worked with him at last year's Benedict Castle Concours show. Super nice guy. Mike and Ed know me two ways, one they know me because of my 1966 Chevy Milk Truck, the other is they know me as the guy with the chrome leg.


This car show will be a lot of work, I know it looks like it's all fun and games but it's actually a lot of work with a full schedule for all three days. I'm very much looking forward to it.
