I just got back from the NSRA Nationals in Louiville, KY and was looking at all the interesting stuff from the different venders and saw alot of T-shirts with reference to "Jimmy Shine". I think he was also mentioned in "hollywood knights" movie so does anyone know if this is a real guy or just a marketing character? Real deal or urban streetrod legend? Lets hear it!

He's a young (30 something) and VERY talented fabricator/builder of custom bikes and rods. Seems bad ass but is very nice and low key in person.

Yeh. Jimmy Shine is a fabricator with So Cal Speed Shops. His name and face is all over everything they sell. T-shirts, hats, etc. His TV program was called "Hard Shine", but it was too disruptive for the shop, so they put an end to it. Eric's right about him lookin like a bad ass, but I've run into him a couple time at So Cal in Pomona and he seems like a pretty nice guy (as long as you do things his way - LOL). It took me a while to figure out who he was as well.

Yep, cool show while it was on. Liked the stuff he did with those different rides and testing those guys and gals.
