On top of this, Trey and Charles find themselves butting heads on whether or not they should invest in a super charger, a part that could add $3,000 to their already rising budget.

Reviews

Saintz In a world full of contrived shows about classic cars this is by far the worst.The show is like another version of "Ground hog Day". Every episode shows made up drama between the partners, scripted sales between the buyer and seller, impossible to find parts that magically turn up, usually supposedly hidden under hood or a door on the ground in some friend's junk yard.Worst of all, some fake auction in a studio somewhere. (See cast and crew list, the bidders are actors, a few of them are even listed here. The rest are friends or family of the crew by the looks on their faces). There is always some bogus deadline to get the car of the week to said auction. Even this part of a weak script is similar every episode "We only have 7 days to get this car ready for the auction!" To sum up, an insult to people's intelligence.
mikeamariano Before tonight show, I would have given these guys a 10, they have a lot going on over the other car show of the same.However... I lost a lot of faith when they took a rare Bandit Trans AM, one of 11 + hundred according to the auction house, and went through a lot of parts and labor to make it Not an original factory T/A by putting in a T-10 four speed. The Bandit car from the movie was an automatic, except in some of the far away shots, A fiberglass body on a VW chassis and drive train were used, just as in Night Rider.They should have put the time, money and effort, took that money and rebuilt the motor in the Mustang with the 427 inch motor.
