Orange County Choppers

[Guest scarylarry]

Tonight is the last show of OCC if anyone watches it, family break up and lawsuits I guess destory the show and family..

Anyway 8 pm CST

Hate to see the show go. Dad was always a little over the top in my book and Jr. seemed to have most of the real ideas. IMHO

Lots of greats looking bike though through the years.

[Bigfoot]

To me this is no loss and I'll lose no sleep over it. This was a dysfunctional family to start with.

[TDunc]

You mean we are not supposed to punch holes in walls, break glass windows, drive trucks into ponds or anything else like that to have fun????

 

 

Darn!!!!!!!!!!

 

 

(and my wife says my obsessions are dysfunctional) or is that me she is talking about?

[Guest scarylarry]

There are dad's then you have father's.

Sr. was father ....IMHO

One of our son's bought Quickstep the whole series of DVD's. Very creative designs, but I wont miss the other crap!!!!!

Parents are supposed to set an example---that's how children learn!!

So, whos gonna care for Mikey?????

[MiCarl]

So, whos gonna care for Mikey?????

 

That's the whole reason they stayed together. Everyone afraid he might get custody of Mikey.

[Monty]

Hope you guys didn't get caught up in that stuff. You know most of the fighting is a put on to keep us entertained. Most reality shows do that. Even Pawn Stars does it a little bit sometimes.

 

I haven't seen OCC in years.

[Cougar]

Poor , Poor Mikey

[Aussie Annie]

Yeah, he might have to actually work for a living......that's gonna be a culture shock for him!!:yikes:

[Renne]

I heard Ozzy Osborn is gonna adopt Mikey!!!!!!!

 

Renne,,,,,,,,,

Same here. Only I couldn't stand watching Jr. beat an axle and a few bolts in with a steel hammer, plus watch him MIG weld with no shield. Looks backyard to me, but then again they must know what they're doing because they sell a lot of bikes.

Poor, poor Mikey is likely rich, rich Mikey!

Just my 2 cents.

----Besides I can't stand reality shows

[Squeeze]

----Besides I can't stand reality shows

 

Is it "Reality" whan Camera show up the whole Day and filming everything you do and say ?

 

Well, the first two Days or so, maybe ... After that, no Way this could be called "Reality" anymore.

 

I'm glad it's over. I really admire Juniors Creativity, but other than this ... It's just a bad Joke since Vinnie left. He and Rick have been the Back Bone of the Bike Building and that's whats counts for me. Senior was all talk and fight, Mickey wasn't funny, only miserable.

[Guest scarylarry]

Ok I watch the show, been better off cleaning the house, still wondering if that was bike show or Lowe's or kobalt tool..

Last show was a big let down, they lost it as far as building bikes

[Condor]

Reruns are going to keep them around for a long time.....

[hunter 1500]

I used like the show but it got old pretty quick. No great loss in my book.

[mrich12000]

The end is near, When the TV guru's don't expose the Orange, they will wither. That new greed the father has; will doom him into bankruptcy!!

 

Your right when you said that Vinnie was the brain and Paul Jr. was the thought.

 

Now they are both gone and the creativity that was OCC is no more. Just watch the demise within two years!!

Spread thin:mo money::mo money::mo money: the Money..

We have not watched the show much since Vinnie left. I always felt sorry for him, how Junior would show up when he felt like it. Then Vinnie would do most of the work and seemed as though he got little credit for what he did.

The show was better when it first started. Before the fame and money went to their heads. This photo is of one of the OCC production bikes we saw in Sturgis.

I still like the venture design better and I'm not just saying that I could have chose this or a GW.

This looks and feels better to me

[KB2RWW]

I will not miss the show, Robot-wars & junkyard wars had more entertainment and ill leave it at that.

I used to hang out with Jr at the car-club till there show went on the air, then you didn't see him any more, if you did You'd get treated as if your dirt. Sum people forget where they cam from i guss. Last year when i finished my Master-cam certification I had to go to OCC for an interview with seiner and lets just say I have nothing pleasant to say and leave it at that.

I will say that there CNC shop is very nicely lade out and if not for sum of the over-sized ego's would not be a bad place to work but I found a better deal being the machinist and tig welder for another factory. as for mickey he is the only one that I know that has not changed, He remembers where he cam from and still treats you the same as before they went big time. I'm glad I live 20 minutes away from there, any closer and I'd have to dig out my cannon and go target practicing with sum of the glass windows i think.

as for vinny he's the only one that stuck it out without losing his marbles.
