Well since I live so close to this shop I'm gonna take a run down there and check it out. I will take plenty of pics, this guy does amazing work.

I really enjoyed his Futureliner build.

Posted by: flat4guy Jan 4 2017, 12:22 PM

A friend went and said he was a great guy, even took him around the shop. Let us know how it goes.

I like his show. He always has a VW standing in the corner in several episodes, i never saw an episode that handled a VW. If you have a chance to get a pic of that...would love to see what he did to that!

Last night featured a 21 window bus!

Well....we are some seasons behind in Europe I guess :-)

Is the show on velocity?

Posted by: mramber Jan 4 2017, 03:38 PM

Yes, its called Bitch-n Rides. Dave is an awesome designer, I'd love to meet him in person

One of my favorite shows currently on TV.
Builds are interesting and the characters are too wacky.

To me Graveyard Carz has taken a turn for the worst this year.
Mark is getting stranger and stranger, and it seems like the episodes concentrate on crazy personal relationships too much...not enough on the actual super cool Mopar cars.

Posted by: jmitro Jan 4 2017, 04:44 PM

I like watching Bitchin Rides and FantomWorks.

Graveyard Carz is full of a bunch of morons

Posted by: BK911 Jan 4 2017, 05:26 PM

Agreed. But my favorite is still wheeler dealers.

Posted by: Nutter965 Jan 4 2017, 05:39 PM

And they even did a 914 in the U.K. !

But I have to agree bitchin rides is very very cool ... I can only dream !

Posted by: flmont Jan 4 2017, 05:58 PM

All True,..I bet B.rides could do a sharp 914,.I also like (the Guild) ,.their from Canada I think

Posted by: Mueller Jan 4 2017, 06:05 PM

Never seen or heard of the show, neat cars from what I see on their website, might have to search and record an episode.

Posted by: mgp4591 Jan 4 2017, 06:13 PM

I agree but their quality of work looks amazing. You've gotta give it to them for craftsmanship and always remember, any show like that is heavily led by editing! And Wheeler Dealers I watch with a critical eye because if you're talking about a mechanic making a living in the real world, Edd is getting the shaft BIGTIME!!

I wish I had the money and garage space to have Dave Kindig build me a cool street rod. My wife wanted the VW bus they did last night. He, IMHO, is the best builder out there. He has a great eye for design, color, style. I like Graveyard Cars too, but agree there is just to much BS with the staff and personalities. Mark definitely knows Mopars though. If I had a 440 Cuda I would want him to restore it. Fantom Works is also a great show with some very nice builds.

By far his shop does the best mods of any of the TV car shows.

Posted by: Mikey914 Jan 5 2017, 12:16 AM

My front bumper was installed on that car !!! My 5 seconds of fame

Posted by: StratPlayer May 8 2017, 12:41 PM

Just got back from visiting Kindigit Design. Didn't get to meet Dave he was in a telephone conference.. I took a few pics of what he had on display, also enter a drawing to win a roaster they did. Going to give it away on the 19th of July. Would be something if I won the roadster. Pic. of the roaster behind one of the bronze hotrods he has on display.

I was lucky enough with a friend to meet Dave and Kevin (Kev-dog) at the local hot rod show a few months back here in Portland. They are both great guys.

Yeah, my dream would be to take him a 69 Camaro and be able to let him loose.

BTW....I'm the funny looking tall guy. Peace baby...

Posted by: Edward Blume May 8 2017, 12:54 PM

I don't have cable anymore but I always enjoyed Kindig it. Someone needs to do an AWD 914.

Posted by: StratPlayer May 8 2017, 01:38 PM

PMB performance is doing an AWD 914

Posted by: infraredcalvin May 8 2017, 01:58 PM

There was an AWD 356 at Luftgekuhlt... I believe it was on 964 drivetrain...

Posted by: stanthedog May 8 2017, 03:11 PM

I think the show with the guild is phantom motor works.

Posted by: maf914 May 8 2017, 04:10 PM

I was curious about these two shows, so I googled them. I actually like them both and wanted to know their locations.

The Guild show is Restoration Garage on Velocity filmed in Bradford, Ontario, Canada.

Phantom Works on Velocity is filmed in Norfolk, Virginia.

Both garages have web sites.

Fantom Works used to host an shop tour/open house on FRI afternoons--very interesting if you get the chance!

Posted by: flmont May 11 2017, 07:55 PM

the profit margin must be incredible for some of those builds,..1800 man hrs,..at what ever amount of $$$ because those shops are pretty sweet and all the employee's,..!!

Posted by: MoveQik May 11 2017, 10:30 PM

Dave and I are pretty tight. Or.....maybe I hassled him for a pic at Barrett-Jackson this year.

Ugh, I like the work they do on FantomWorks but I hate how they always seem to go over budget and pass the bill onto the owner. My heart goes out for the owner every time. Sorry you couldn't get it done at the agreed cost, but that's not my problem! If I did that, I'd get fired. They seem to do it on every build.

Posted by: Eric_Shea May 13 2017, 06:53 AM

The 914-6 settles in as caboose on the Ferrari train. Dave's in the white one in front of me. There's a yellow one ahead of that.

Last Sunday I was headed down to the freeway for the B-17 flight, when a couple of Ferraris went by on 13th East. I had to go play!



The B-17 ride didn't suck either!

Posted by: jmitro May 13 2017, 10:19 AM

that's pretty awesome!

agreed. I watched an episode on FantomWorks last night where they built a circa 1950s speedboat from scratch. Amazing! I think the bill was around $130k total
