Chop Shop Show Discovery Channel Chop Shop Londo Garage

The show looks allright to me..leepu should stick more to his work rather than overemphasising on his dramatic side of getting carried away once he welds a piece of a sheet metal to any existic stock car..In my opinion leepu's designing skills are okay but could be done better provided he works more on how to go with more curves and contours and improving his work on an old english wheel which are the basics of any metal shaping project..
Overall the projects are okay but still amateurish not the professional british class or quality you could expect from someone in Europe.

One of Leepu's earliest memories from childhood is seeing his first Lamborghini. From that moment he knew what he wanted to do - make his own.

For over 40 years Leepu has lived, breathed and dreamt cars of all shapes, all colours and all sizes. He never draws or preconceives his modified masterpieces – they’re all in his head, and that's where they stay until he begins to construct his works of art.

He built his first custom car when he was 17 and later honed his skills spending three years at the Venice Design Institute in California. He then moved back to his home in Bangladesh where he became a national icon due to his unique and spectacular modified car creations.

Oil runs through Bernie's veins, and he has worked on every engine imaginable, from Fords to Ferraris. A true cockney, born and bred in Bow, east London, Bernie got his first job at age 11 greasing taxis for 12 hours each Saturday. At 13, he started an apprenticeship in a garage and it wasn't long before he was learning the ins and outs of cars made by esteemed manufacturers such as Jaguar, Rolls Royce, and Aston Martin.

He has subsequently worked as a business consultant helping to turn around ailing motor businesses all over the globe, from Guatemala to El Salvador and Bethnal Green via Belize.

He is most proud of the Eco Car in Series 1, which was also probably the greatest challenge. To completely change the fuel system of a car to make it environmentally friendly is something that he will never forget.

After 50 years in the motor trade Bernie is at the height of his success running the Chop Shop garage. It has been the happiest time of his life, and he hopes to still be doing up, modifying and tuning cars until he can’t lift a spanner any more.
