You can tell he's a down to earth, true performance head. It comes across in the show. Got to meet the guys from Trucks back last fall. They were cool also. Shot the **** with them for a while. Man to have a shop set up like they do....

Can't remember his name. The younger guy from Trucks in this picture.

Tell him to take my 91 Z28 and do something with it.

He always seemed like a cool guy to meet, he's in it for the cars, not the TV.

He told me what he is looking for, for his next few projects. He is going to do vehicles that nobody thinks about anymore.

That's pretty cool that you met him and got to check out his shop. I was kinda bummed when Spike dropped him off trucks cuz I thought the new guys were just tools. Tell him to join up I'm sure he'd like to see some of the projects going on in here.

No, all the shops moved to North Carolina, when they changed over to allthe new people. He is in Madison, Tn, just down the road from me.


I was a jeeper, I guess technically I am since I want another one. I don't have anything at the time being though. I want to get another grand wagoneer, but build a hotrod out of it rather then an off-roader. The doctor told me no more off-roading, my back and neck are damaged to badly.

Sorry to revive this five year old thread, but I know Stacey David. He's all that's been said here AND a bag of chips.

I've known Stacey since I used to be a forum moderator for RTM (aka Power Block) and Stacey was doing TRUCKS.

He left them and started his own show. A little tidbit for cttandy, Stacey's shop is right next to his OLD PLACE that RTM filmed in for numerous years before THEY moved.

cttandy, the next time you are at Rattletrap Productions, take a look at his red English wheel. My name is on it about midway up the large arm that holds the wheel. "WALLEW".

I went to the Gearz Premiere back in 07 a week before his show was starting on Speed channel.

Then I went to the second season premiere with a group of guys from his forum for Gearz, as I was the moderator for almost two years, before life got in the way and I passed it on to other folks to moderate.

You know how he has in the opening of GEARZ where he is firing those simulation fifty calibers? Those came from IRAC - http://www.iracinc.com/ - and I'm the guy who hooked him up. I'm a retired gunsmith and for ten years collected military vehicles. I recently sold almost all my MV stuff. Still have a genny and an MKT.

ANYWAY, on to the pix of his second premiere.
