yeah, thats were they first hit the tv.. i just caught a episode on some hd channel last nite and it wasnt produced by mtv. it gave a much better prospective of the shop...
willy is full of himself but he brings in some heavy hitters as clients. seems like he's got the personality that the celebs are drawn to. word of mouth is the best advertising and when celeb's want to outdo each other with a open checkbook, its a no limit budget.. great in a buisness prospective... add a tv show and you got the best of both worlds ehen it comes to advertising..
wcc looks like they have much more employee's but bigger isnt always better... a small group of guys that work togather day in and day out seem to mesh alot better than a bunch of people who dont know what each other is capable of. plus, willy isnt scared to voice his opinion. no matter who it is directed towards.... the owner of wcc has a guy who is about 6'7 and looks like a ultimate fighter to keep the guys in line, ua only has the owner as the go to guy in the event of a mishap. to me, that shows leadership and confidence.Yea I like confident people working on my car if anyone is going to but me
not sure what it was outta the box but i do know its a 2dr hardtop sprint. its always had a 289 hi po v8 with a c4 trans in it. it sounds really good but my younger brother went to a automotive trainnig school for 2 years and yanked the motor and trans for a project he wanted to do while he was there... cant remember exactly what he did but i know it got bored out 30 over, got a cam and a set of heads. rebuilt the trans and put it back in the car... i think its got a 750 holley carb on it. long tube headers and a full exhaust. the last time it was on the road it just wasnt fast imo... a mark viii bone stock would walk right by it in a 1/8th mile run... never did figure out what the problem was.... neat little car but its my pops and things i would do one way might not sit well with him.... i know another guy who has the same car that stuff'd a 460 in his and did a mini tub at the rear end... thats what i wouldve done but its th ol mans car so he's got the final say...
i guess it depends on what your exspected result wants to be... ua does have some high pofile clients and they all want the biggest and/or baddest rides but when its gets old or they get tired of it, it can be put back to stock and traded or sold. so, in that aspect, ua is the go-2 crew. if you want a total one off custom ride, forget wcc, id hand the keys to chip foose. he's got a way with cars that i have yet to see any one else come close 2. if $ is no object, why mess @? in the end, its really boils down to the owners taste and future plans with the car...
was it the bigass f650 owned by a football player or the dumptruck that a local guy had? thats the only 2 big trucks i can think of off hand.... either way, both have thier cutomers/clients, they both gotta b doin somethin right. if not, one would go outta buisness just by the bad reputation that goes along with poor quality.
