Another reality car TV show...
 

I am stuck in the house for a few days recovering from surgery and am getting a lot of TV time in. I see this show today called "Chop Shop" and it is based in England. They are building a funky looking wide bodied BMW 3 series car for some local event. In the rear of the car the new fenders look like they add about 5 inches per side each. The part that really gets me is the wheel spacers, they are at least 4 or 5 inches wide!! There has been nothing done to make the track width grow other than these spacers. I can't wait to see the end of this when those things let go and the wheels fall off!:rofl:
They are calling this a "fully built super car"!!

That show is the biggest hack job show out there.... all the work on there is complete junk....hideous metal work....tons of bondo....ugly designs..... the work on there makes me cringe.

It looked REALLY bad. In raw metal it was bad, I can not imagine how much mud it took to make it ready for the black paint it got on it.:_paranoid

Eric - Are you still taking your meds!?

They're one at a time - not one handful...


Ned -- What do you really think?


:rofl:

Oh crap! just one at a time???:_paranoid

i thought the biggest hack job was pimp my ride....ahhahha....i've never seen this show but seems to be about the same level....:_paranoid

On the note of new shows...While I was at Foose designs a few days ago they mentioned a new show "Hot Rod Build Off" will start airing in the US later next month.Same format as the successful "biker Build Off " series....

With Mr Foose himself as judge/adviser....

We have Chop Shop here in Australia on our cable ...and I think it is crap too..another to avoid is Beetle Crisis....

ahhhh yes, Beetle Crisis....fine program right there!:D

I saw that show, and that makes West Coast Customs and American chopper interesting. Seriously who picks these shows?

Now something like this would really have my interest and I would be something I would look forward to watching.
