Passed yesterday morning around 6:20am. He had had three heart atacks. Also had some kind of "fall" accident recently. No details around his death are being given out. Very sorry to hear of his passing.

i will miss him! I loved his work and the colors he came up with.

 

RIP.
master of his craft.

 

The art of sculpting mechanical works of art has lost a legend... and a whole wardrobe of tacky hawaiian shirts...

Too soon?

 

hey.. what's wrong with Hawaiian shirts?? [sm=yeahsmile.gif]

 

I knew that Chip Foose used to work in his shop, but I never knew that Jesse James once worked there, too.

I loved the cars that came out of his shop. But unlike Foose, I never saw him get his hands dirty doing the actual work on the cars.
