What Really Happened at West Coast Customs | Up to Speed

[@GreyCrowe]

So many episodes ended with me thinking, "I'd be so pissed if they stuck a fishtank in my console."

[@Scrapla1]

There are videos on here of former guests on the show and they said it was all staged. MTV would rent a house to film the fake introduction part with Xzibit and the cars were decorated to look worse than they were and the producers would decide what theme the car was going to decorated. There was a pimped out van with a jewelery maker startion installed which was sold after the show and bought by popular KZbinr Tavarish who fixed it up and gave it to his friend Hoovie as a joke.

I always thought the show was fun, and having a clue about cars knew most of the mods wouldn't last, and probably fall out after going over a few speed bumps too fast. Except the one where some young guy wanted the car restored for his mother, and the car was sooo bad, basically two halves welded together, they sourced a new car for them and modded that.

We also had Overhaulin’, American Chopper, Monster Garage, and American Hotrod. Chip Foose was well known in the car industry and for restoration of American classics. OCC Choppers known for custom bikes. Monster Garage for making crazy builds with Jesse James. All of these shows were running during the same years as Pimp my Ride.

[@nlx78]

The first, I think, was American Hotrod with Boyd Coddington (edit: See you named it in your list now). Then every other channel copies that and the original channel also has spin offs. Same with shows seeking gold, can already name like 4 or 4, same with commercial fishing shows, pawn stores and several other topics. Then again, some are fun. Gold Rush White Water is kind of fun to see too.

When the show ran, it was an insane hit. Everyone liked it! But it only took a few years before it got cringy, and we watched it just for the laughs. I'm so glad Ryan got out of MTV's clutches, and could run the shop like it was meant to from the very beginning.

[@rars0n]

I had several older Alpine head units, including a CDA-7949 that I bought used for $400 (street price was about $800 new, I believe, this was back in 2000 when ebay had actual bargains). I took that sucker off every time I went somewhere (they had cases to store the faceplates in which was important to keep them scratch-free). The funny thing was that removing the faceplate didn't stop thieves from stealing the head unit. In fact, back then only pricey head units had removable faceplates, so thieves would actually target them. They'd steal the unit without the face, figure out what model it was, and then contact the manufacturer to get a replacement face. This eventually turned into a whole thing where head units had unique codes and yadda yadda yadda... does anyone even bother to steal head units anymore?

[@Matt93se]

I remember watching this show a couple times as a young car enthusiast and pretty much instantly realized it was a bunch of cheap s*** with huge branding (donated by the advertisers as a write-off), then put together poorly in a $1500 car that would be better off in a scrapyard--- so if the project was an utter failure and the car burned to the ground, the show had a whopping $1,501 to lose. And then cue tons of unnecessary man-drama and a fake unachievable deadline.. Pure shit. As someone that actually took the time to learn the skills of the trade, the show disgusted me. I abhor the vast majority of what comes out of Hollywood, and this show was made entirely of that. They took a decent shop and techs with proper skills, and cheapened the craft into harlequins.

Those shows are basically soap operas set in a custom shop. Hollywood producers often only seem to understand drama. If you like cars, you study and learn to build cars. If you like drama, you study and learn to make movies and TV shows. So most specialized activity becomes a setting for drama, not a study of that activity. It's why I often hate movies about things I like, they rarely have better than a superficial appreciation of the thing that's supposed to be the draw for me.

There was also a huge overlap in the show I watched first, with Boyd Coddington before he died called American Hotrod. Some mechanics, think one named Rich (but maybe he also went to a pawn show store to work) you later saw in either or both. I think that Dwayne guy who was a piece of shit, bald and 2nd man with Boyd. I mean, production companies can't edit so many terrible things about him when they didn';t film it first so it's not like they just showed him to be bad. Anyway, you saw them in Pimp my Ride and CHip Foose his show which aired back then as well. Chip Foose worked for Boyd Coddington I believe, at least they had a big rivalry.

@@gearjammergamer8560 Yeah I had heard rumors that there was a few episodes where they did the body, but the motor was never even hooked up during the "reveal." They did "awesome work" if you want to believe it was actually them doing it. On another note, Orange County Choppers was another show everybody loved. Just watched a video the other day how one of their $80,000 bikes are now worth $3,000-$8,000. I called them "Cake Decorators" because they never truly made a "badass" bike. They added decorations to them to make them look cool, but the motors were small, tires too big, no suspension, everything for a recipe for a bike you won't love to ride, but looks cool. 🤨

Paying employees less than minimum is inexcusable, especially considering Ryan (the owner) is racking in millions. There is no way I would reward a business like that with my business.

Wage theft in the US is more money per year than all other theft combined, $15 billion, excluding police asset seizure which I believe is the second highest coming in around $3ish billion. In 2014 the police seized more property than was actually reported stolen.

It's insanely expensive to run a custom shop in California.

[@MyKnightlife]

to build on what your saying; if i found out that the troopers working on my car were not getting paid right, i would really be worried that they wont do a good job because the incentive isnt there, and i dont blame them. minimum wage means minimum effort. Also if an owner steals from their employees they are probably jacking up the prices beyond whats reasonable. Its just bad news all round. Besides, getting a $100k car is always gonna turn heads. You dont need to be an idiot and ride in something that really just looks weird and different. I saw west coast do a Rolls-Royce for Justin Bieber, and it looks horrible. From the work ive seen there, bad wages or not, its just not worth it.

Top gear is the most overrated show ever, borderline annoying specially Clarkson. Pimp my ride was a totally different type of show that no one had ever seen before. And it was all right in the middle of the fast and furious craze.

[@jollimaiahtacksworth]

@@syrthdr09sybr34 I agree pimp my ride was a completely different type of car show, but saying that top gear was overrated isn't entirely true. The main thing you got to remember was that it was a British show, with a different style of humour and a whole different point of view than America. One of the big appeals for me was that it was 3 old guys who love cars complaining about stuff that, for them, ruins the fun of driving cars.

[@syrthdr09sybr34]

@@jollimaiahtacksworth Don't get me wrong I did watch top gear from time to time but mainly for the badass cars, since I always found the jokes too cheesy and the hosts too awkward.
