You and me both, I don't know how anyone would have this guy restore a car for them, or work for him either. To much Ego & drama. Bill

That stupid, fake, "human interest" crap completely turns people off from the show. Feel free to tell him that.

If someone would produce a show where people just located and restored cars on time and on budget, without the artificial melodrama, then it would be something I would watch.

I cant watch more the two minutes of that show before turnng the channel.

I just fast forward thru the crap - didn't know the rear bumble-bee stripes on the Challengers were painted first then color later. That was worth knowing (to me anyways...)

The show has too much drama, and his ego is way beyond his abilities. Another issue is the show provides very little technical content. I think the new Legendary Motor Car show is one of the best.

Im not a fan. Stick to the cars and trucks. Send the drama over to MTV for thier crowd... bring back reruns of American Sports Cavalcade with Ed Bruce [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/flag.gif[/img].

That would be &quot;Pimp My Ride&quot;.

This show &quot;grave yard cars&quot; I have not seen. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img]

I like the idea of the show . Finding out the history of the cars and ho
w they died . Even going to the seen of the crash and were the car had been stored.
The season seem like a hour long commercial for local business and all the free shop tools . Hope they drop the occ crap and just go back to building and the research of some cool mopars

I am a fan of Hot Rod Magazine Roadkill on you tube.
