If you talk to him, tell him I didn't get the autographed picture yet! I still think they have fun doing what they do. There is a lot to be said for that. I am not a mopar guy, but their work looks pretty good.

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.

Chop, Cut, Rebuild on Speed might be more in line with what you all would like to watch.
Strictly showing the steps on what their doing from a technical nature, with just the occasional dumb joke by Dan Woods.

At least the crew is knowledgeable and they don't cram it full of wannabe-heavy metal buffer music like a certain &quot;other&quot; network does (can't hit the &quot;mute&quot; button fast enough on that one sometimes!)

Obviously it's all about the demographics they're targeting.

I agree the show seems to be a cross between a reality show and a restoration show,but with
to much reality (drama). He talks to much crap to the guys but they don't seem to mind.
This to me is suppose to be about the cars (grave yard carz), he seems pretty passionate
about them, let that be the main focus of the show. I am chevy guy but like all muscle cars.
I would like to know more about the Mopars he seems to be pretty knowledgeable about them .
I really like the Challengers and 67 Barracudas.

Tony
