    Daren was the reason Holly Chedester left the show. And it screwed us all out of what would have been a great evolution of Holly starting off knowing very little about restoration to... who knows how she might have evolved. I would have MUCH preferred watching Holly and Alyssa doing actual car stuff rather than the first few seasons of nearly-unwatchable drama.

      @@rapidtransit8373 ABSOLUTELY agree 100% There's a trend with guys like Mark and Tony D.
      If THEY are buying it from YOU, it's worth nothing,,, if YOU are buying from THEM, well, it must be gold plated.
      There's a guy in Utah that can speak to this phenomenon with Mark, just as I can with Tony DiAgostino who wanted me to sell him my very perfect 68 Hemi Dual Quad intake manifold for 200.00 at the Hillyard Ohio swapmeet. I had 500.00 on it. And really, didn't want to sell it but needed the money.
      DiAgostino was shytty with me about taking less for the manifold and considering his tendency to jack prices up on everyone else, I didn't want to sell it to him at all. So, a guy that all of us in the hobby know as 'Jerry the old man' came by and asked what Tony was being a jerk about,, my buddy, Paul Wilson, told Jerry the turns of events,,, and he said if Tony had been so persistent it was because he really wanted it.
      So, Jerry gave me 500 for it, and he told Tony he needed 800 for it, when Tony came back around and saw it was gone off my table.
      Tony got all blustery and cussing, but then he shelled out 750 to Jerry and Jerry took it, winking at me and Paul.
      Paul got to laughing out loud which pissed Tony off that much more. Later that afternoon, Tony had my intake laying out on HIS table for 1500.00. That's just the way those guys are.
      So, Darren can probably tell basketloads of the SAME kinda stories on Mark. Those guys that have to be the big cheese are all the same.
      I don't begrudge Tony or Mark their successes,,, but neither one of them will ever get a chance to buy my SuperBird or my Bobby Issac's K&K Insurance Hemi Nascar #71 Charger. They've made their place in the scheme of things. And I won't contribute to their kind of 'look at me' business practices. It's a shame Worman gets off on rubbing Darren's name around even after he's been gone. Tells you allot about what his 'code' really is.

You get what you pay for.

    Other than family members, esp one as easy going as cousin Dougie, I'm not sure how anyone can work with Mark for more than 6 or so months. No question that a motivated tech could learn an incredible amount even in that time but Mark just has to grind people down over time, even if some of his antics are purely for the 'drama'. Will Scott seems to be able to thrust and parry when needed but I'm sure there are days when he just wants to lock that paint booth and avoid Mark entirely. I'm not surprised that Dave Rea left to start his own resto business - that guy was a real asset Anyone can bolt a car back together given enough time but how many of us have had to assemble an air grabber hood or a convertible top mechanism ? He also knew how to handle Mark - sadly missed.

    This was a "richard" move by Mark, stripping the guy's car of hard to find parts. I don't care if Darren was a jerk or not, it's his car not Mark's. Mark has that sense of entitlement that he deserves the part more than Darren because Darren isn't doing anything with his car right now. This turned me off and I really haven't watched the show because of Mark's childish attitude.

      I agree, Mark has no right to remove parts from another persons property without their consent. Mark would/should be considered a workforce "bully"! His disrespect for his employees is atrocious! This is reinforced by the fact that his closest family employees have left the business. Hello Mark, it's time to wake up and smell the coffee burning!

      @@bradstephens4268 because he's entitlement minded. He thinks that because he's the boss and ultimately, he's paying the rent/mortgage payments,,, he is justified because the car is 'on his property' entitling him to take parts from it, but a guy named Ken Mosier was doing stuff like that in Indianapolis and he got sued and lost to several customers he ripped off by taking their original parts from their cars while he had them in his shop. It's a big big deal. And Darren was justified in being opposed to the original parts that made up his car being taken away, rendering his car, a made up 'tribute car' with a bunch of repro parts on it.
      Guys like Worman doing that and broadcasting it, should give ANYONE pause about taking anything truly original to their shop for fear of the same thing happening to their own vehicle.

    IIRC, Darren stored his car on Mark's property inside and then outside for years. Sure, Mark was doing his friend a favor, but at some point Darren owes him for that. I have no idea what arraignment they had setup but obviously there was some kind of verbal agreement that eventually went sour.
    All said and done, if you own a 6 figure muscle car its kind of on you to take care of it. If things were not working out with Mark, then he should have flat bedded his car to somewhere else. He could rent a storage for probably about 100 bucks a month to store the car in. Problem solved. Instead he leaves it on the lot and the friction just grows.

    Both of them have deep psychological issues. I believe they were "acting" in front of the camera and took advantage of making "drama" for TV and got carried away. They used to be friends, according to the dialogue and have known each other for a long time but one thing lead to another and one got feed up and left the show, ( fired or quit, who really knows). But it's probably a long friendship that is no more....
