wallacedonald First car show in years that doesn't have BLEEPING throughout the entire show. As a Christian there are so few car shows I can watch. These guys show that you can have a good show without constant cussing. They have good humor, build nice cars and you can watch it with your son. I loved the blue 65 Vette in the "Supercharged Chevelle" show and wish I could have found it at the price that it sold for. I am sure that the show is embellished some but that's just television because of the competition between shows. I am proud of this show for staying true to their family values and "keeping it clean". Thanks, I hope you keep this show around for years to come.

easthambarn I spend too much time watching car related shows on Velocity and other cable channels. This show is charming and entertaining because the mechanics are genuine, decent people who seem to be in this for the love of cars. They are quirky in a very authentic and endearing way. The owner looks tough but is an emotional, sentimental man who obviously cares deeply about his teenage son. There is no manufactured drama, dumb pranks, yelling or fake deadlines. They don't overplay the weight gags and the show does not need any gimmicks. And like Wheeler Dealers, you can learn something about car restoration. My only reservation is sometimes the owner's decisions make me cringe (replacing a numbers matching Boss 302 engine with a crate motor. Eww). I hope this show finds an audience.

brooklands3869 The show over all is entertaining, but there is absolutely nothing about the show that could be considered reality. Nothing against the guys I'm sure they didn't write the script.Show takes place in Ohio, in Tommie's garage, located in a residential subdivision, with no grease, no cars in the parking area and no reasonable evidence that this garage has ever been used as a repair facility. The shows projects are a complete removal of anything reassembling reality. Where can you buy a factory original black on black 68 Mustang GT for 8k? Please tell me I'm on my way with a pocket full of money. One shows depicts a Corvette restoration that required an engine rebuild. The show claims that the push rods were to short and the whole engine had to be removed.......don't bring your car to this shop!Although nothing about this show is in the realm of reality, down the ridiculous technical issues the guys in counter, somehow I continue to watch the show. The Discovery Channel slogan the number 1 non fictional media company........really?As one of my all time favorite channels I find myself rarely watching, I truly miss what I considered great programming. This is not an attempt to offend the guys in the shop, it's just what I have come to expect from Discoveries terrible programming.

digvisgrp Saw the show for the first time last night. The episode had the guys building a 1971 Chevelle SS 454. The owner of the car wants the car to go at 13 sec in the 1/4 mile. This is a numbers matching Chevelle that he wants them to do whatever is necessary with a budget of $50K. So they run out and buy a 572 crate motor. Now don't get me wrong this a beautiful monster motor and wish we had them back in the day. So they invest a total of $45K in the car. I know the engine is about $15K with another 8-900 for headers and maybe $5K for trans for approx $21K. Now I could be off on some of this but that leaves $29K left. The show did not show what else they did other than a ring and pinion so I don't know how they spent the rest of the cash. When it was all said and done they got a 12.5 out of the car. Under the 13 sec time the owner wanted but not what I would have expected. In 1970 I owned a 1966 Chevelle with a 454 with headers, 4 speed and 488s. When the car was in its worst shape (only a 780 holly on a Tarantula manifold, no head work, I ran 11.9s all day long. How the heck did this beast only do a 12.5? I have to be missing something. Lastly they built a beautiful 1965 Vette and did a great job on it but when they put the motor together they found the push rods too short. So all they had to do is loosen the rocker nuts and replace the push rods but they went on about how they would have to take the whole motor apart again. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.Overall it was fun to watch although a little sketchy on the truth.
