It makes sense the family didn't know that was the last episode.

I didn't realize Vinny left then Cody. What is Jr new business venture? I was hoping they would at least hint at it.

Hint at it? They showed this season he was free lancing with companies, doing design work for products. That's the only part of the show i would watch. I have a friend who works with a lady here in Phoenix. He said the OCC guys were out here a couple years ago for an event, and signing autographs. She said Sr. totally blew people off and left.

Those were not staged or faked, that was all real.

And what they showed was the tamed down for TV.

I just started catching many OCC reruns over a year ago, on local network tv (rabbit ears)-When Vinnie left, it just wasn't the same.

Looks like Vinnie did some work on Camaro's in his younger days

They got the records because Jr thought Sr was screwing him out of money. Jr does own 20% of the business. I'm sure Jr did it because he is out of money. He left with no business plan and a gf who is very high maintenance. Not a good combination for financial success.

This is excellent news! I'm so happy to hear this. I hate that show!
