Took the least likeable clowns/f'ups from one show and made a second show... 'merica.

Agreed. The show is an embarrassment.

It's TV so yeah it's all BS. While there are probably elements of true realism in these shows, it's all burried in the typical minutia that makes T-shirt salesmen like Richard Rawlings a "celebrity". If your hankerchief doesn't drag on the ground behind you....then you just won't understand bro.

I actually still have a voicemail from the producer of this show....she wanted to attend my swapmeet in Conroe last year with a camera crew...So thats why I tend to just look at where this show ends up....Her quote was "these guys are different than R.R......We want to film them actually in swapmeet buying PARTS to restore these cars"......Well I don't recall ever seeing that yet and she ended up filming at a Mecum auction same weekend.........and u should see what I have to sign off on to let her crew come in!!!......:badidea: :badidea: ...jim

Both shows
 
Are more staged mini shoots and false drama than actual content...Those who work on things would much rather see them actually build stuff, than listen to techs bicker, or RR spend money that isn't his.

Where do they find these guys? And the buyers? I swear everyone that appears on the show is just looking for their 15 minutes of fame. Proof positive that half the populations has below average intelligence...

Its funny how the car they finished up with is closer to what they should have started with for what they paid. I spotted some pics of it on FB showing the gaps and rust holes still in the car even after paint. Following the drama on FB between the show and Scott, it all seams real with the exception of the buyer at the end. He looked like he might be a real car guy but seriously, who pays 38k for that. Looked like it still had drum brakes on all 4 corners and stock suspension. Didnt even look like they blasted and repainted the parts. Just bolted it back on with the same old bolts. I wouldnt give that for MY car and I have close to that much in parts alone in it.
