Shows alright. They have some nice muscle cars. The purple Plymouth was badass though.

It's a good show. Sometimes, I would like to see him work on a more modern car.

My favorite fix-er-up show is Wheeler Dealers because they restore all kinds of cars. Virtually all of the American restoration shows only restore classic American muscle cars which is pretty much the least interesting type of car for me.

i've seen it a couple times.. kinda cool

I like that fast and loud show better, though... they picked up an f40 and repaired it the last time I watched it. plus the one guy has a badass beard

I don't watch much tv, though... mostly just top gear and that's it

Haven't seen it. I've been watching a series on one of those History-like networks about how certain supercars are made. From the episode on Ferrari, I see why those are so expensive. I also have to wonder if being almost entirely handmade really makes the cars better....I can see plainly it makes them cost more.

I should add that I don't mind things being expensive. I mind them being expensive and being no more reliable and well put together than if they were constructed less expensively.

I watch Counting Cars because there is not drama BS. Same for West Coast Customs. Go figure, car shows about the cars and not about the personal lives of the people building them.

I just watched my first episode today, there's a ton of shows like this floating around. It's a cool show though. I like it.
