While on the subject of death, Larry Norman has also left us. 
Some of you guys might remember him as the Father of Christian Rock.
The Rock that doesn't Roll and I wish were ready are a few that comes to mind.

I liked Boyd's car building shows on cable.

His crew had great workmanship and imagination.  If you payed attention, you could pick up skeels that apply to models, or even home improvement projects.

Now my self i always thought he was a arrogant hateful BLEEEEEEPPPPP and never did like watching his show on account of that. But thats just my 2 cents. Its no wonder the workers changed so much the way he acted.  S?P

Steve, Steve, Steve, you should see how they make those shows.  In real life he was probably a real gentleman.  To me he had a better attitude than some of them I've seen.  Just look at the guys on the motorcycle show how the dad is always brow beating the son.  I've never met them myself, but, know people that know them and say you couldn't ask for nicer people.  Anyway the producers think it makes for better shows for the stars to act like that.  Anyway I'll see ya down the road.  DOC Holliday

Well just goes to show ya the producers dont know squat huh? Come over to the ford truck forum at Fordification.com and see just how many people that felt the same way. My self i like the trick my truck show on CMT. Where they trick out big trucks. If ya go to the local truck stop and get a book that has trucks for sale on the cover is a older mack truck. I dont remember the name of the truck but its like rip saw saw blade or some thing along that line. I seen the show where they did that one and it was a sweet truck when it was done.
