Tonights episode was awesome. Paul really layed into Paulie it was hilarious.

Poor Vinny though, they kept showing shots of him while Paul and Paulie were fighting, he had a look like he just wanted to leave.

Ya, I'm waiting for Vinny to snap one of these times, Mikey will have to hold him back, now there would be a show.

It's kinda true what Sr. was saying though, about Jr not doing much lately. Although that could just have been editing to show that.

Is next week the clip show that Mikey hosts? Or is it the Santa bike re-run again? Couldn't tell as they showed previews for both at the end of tonights show.

^^^^ They must be getting a good deal of support from the Discovery channel and other promoters because their shop is expanding at an alarming rate.
I mean instead of hauling the bikes in a trailor behind the Dodge they now use a Rig?
And look at the Snap On tools throughout the shop when they were doing the Snap On bike. Getting a shot of the new tools and cabinets throughout the shop in every frame. They weren't just doing a bike they were starting an endorsement.
A huge new shop....
Paul Jr's new Prowler and Bulova watch.....

They do turn out some nice bikes but the business has grown substantially in the past short while and OCC as a shop has been around for a while.

The snap-on bike came out nicely...

my fave is still the 'Jet Bike' they did a while back. That paintjob was ridiculously nice.

I would guess that they would have to be fairly big on their own before discovery channel/ the executive producers banked on doing a show with their specific shop.

Also, if you ever watch the scenes like a tCody's party...all of their 'friends' who were around look like old rough and tumble bikers, like Paul Sr., and I bet you dont make that many friends, like that, by not being involved in the biking community for a long time.

sweet show....Mikey is tres funny...

can't imagine a hand made bike to be cheap

those 'special' bikes are probably worth even more than that, considering their rarity, etc

No, that's against my "artistic integrity". BS, give me the free tools. The fact of the matter is that they give the customer what they want, the customer pays a premium for their work and is happy and they buy big rigs to drive their bikes around. I wish i was that successful.
AMEN
