That sucks. I really like him and his show and his cars as well.

Damn shame, I met him last year at his shop. very nice guy and was more than willing to give us a personal guided tour and take all day.

Just talked to his son Chris yesterday; my guess is considering his age and timing no one expected it...

"he was in and out of the hospital over the past month"

Think he was having problems....

My point was only that I do not think the family thought he was on his death bed or Chris wouldn't have been working...

That is all.

I thought only the good die young he was kinda a grumpy person thought he would live forever

I typically don't care about celebrities but something about him seemed more real. Yeah, the guy had his flaws but who the heck doesn't. He got a lot done in his life, too bad he's gone.

YEp sorry I did not get that you talked to his son like that, I thought you missed the part about he was in and out, I'm sure they would have been shut down if he was in bad shape....
