A few years back there was a program about a Canadian restorer. Something like The Guild of Automotive Restorers'. They did a splendid job on the reincarnation of a Bugatti 57 Aerolithe. But somehow, the owner was not a sympathetic guy in eyes. There has to be a connection between customer and builder. Most people who enter the shop are handing over their pride and joy - and have expectations, dreams. It's not only about craftsmanship, it's also about a relationship between the customer and the shop. Chip Foose, Kindig and Boyd Coddington in the past, look(ed) like people you can trust with your dreams.
