I had the guy that appraised that Nomad for the show come and appraise my Volvo X build, and he honestly didnt have a whole lot of nice things to say about it.. They left all the tired trim and interior pieces in place, so alot of that was yellowed or cracked, and the fit and finish wasnt any good at all. It isnt like Mountain Dew wouldnt have paid for fresh catalog pieces.. LOL

That is a total catalog car, so there really isnt any excuse for so much to be left undone, because I am sure most of it could have been overnighted. I can see where Jr. would be happy overall due to what is in his garage. If you look at the other cars they have done with Self Imposed Deadlines, there are so many things left undone and reused, but I guess that is cool if you can get away with it.. I can understand on some of the quick flip freshen ups, but not the crap he is expecting top dollar at the auction for. LOL

How hideous was that AC/Console piece, and not to mention the fact how unfuctional the touchscreen stereo was in its position, which is common oversights with their builds.. The bigges joke though, was the show that came on right after that.. LOL It seems that they are trying to find more of these shows that might catch on, so they are giving these off the wall people shows while hoping that their personality is a hit like Duck Dynasty and Fast and Loud. It really isnt about what they are doing, it is more about the social dynamic of their operation and lives, and that is why there have been several recent shows that only have a few episodes made without being picked up..
