    Default ICYMI: Extreme Car Hoarders restro mod 1937 Zephyr

    Last night on the Discovery Channel, I saw an episode of Extreme Car Hoarders do a restro mod on a 1937 Zephyr. Good episode. The client was Bob? Long who was located 210 miles West of Phoenix. Could have been near Oceanside California. Bob had a 1956 or 1957 Continental Mark II in his collection. The collection was extensive.
    Highly recommend this episode if you can catch it.

    Default Correction on the Name S/B Don Long

    The guy featured in the video was not Bob Long, I believe it was Don Long...

    Don Long was the owner of Walnut Valley Auto Body and Towing located east of Los Angeles. Walnut Valley was an innovator in high tech auto body and frame work in the 1990s. Subsequently absorbed by a national chain. I don't know for sure, but suspect that is the Don Long featured in the show. Entertaining episode, but it seemed to me that was more a "collection" than a "hoard."

    Reality shows create their own reality for the sake of conflict to generate interest saying and doing whatever it takes to entertain the viewer.
