First Crush

Most of us can remember our first car; we remember not only where we got it, but how much it cost and also the first thing we did with that car. For many of us, that first car may have been a hand-me-down from Grandma, or we had a part time job and raised money to pay for it. That first car was our rite of passage, it gave us the freedom to come and go as we please, and to do so without asking someone else to give us a ride.

fc04Most of us were in love with our first car, because it was ours – we owned it. It was the result of hard work, dedication and pride. We cleaned it up, polished the oxidized paint, and vacuumed up the interior. We worked on it day and night so we could show it off. It was our “First Crush” and we spent all of our free time with it. And that first car crush is the premise behind a new reality show, created by Dan Woods.

Dan Woods is one of the guys that we regularly see on television talking about cars – and about fixing them. He’s the CEO of WAS Productions, Inc., and was the producer for Chop Cut Rebuild and Street Tuner Challenge, as well as other shows we’ve seen on the former SPEED channel. We’ve seen him at SEMA with a car that was built on his show, and he’s been at many car shows – often handing out “Best of Show” awards to the deserving winners. You can now find Chop Cut Rebuild on MAVTV, and his new series called Dan’s Garage, a show that takes place in his own garage, can be found on the web. Dan’s Garage is a show about hanging out in the garage, and shares garage improvement tips and simple, cost effective repairs. (Source: MavTV)
