Wonder if this was made before or after the show came along?

I actually laugh that people are taking this show to heart/so seriously ... it's just goofy entertainment with a car resto theme. I view it that way.

 After watching the 3rd episode last week........I agree.......Made in Canada......with lots of Canadian content......and almost local.....

I will continue to watch....and wish them luck....as long as they don't show Avery's A** crack again...cry

After the last one was over...I left the TV on......and started watching Counting Cars........

I had to turn it off....in less than a minute.....What a FREAK show.....

That one makes Rust Valley Resto's look real....and NORMAL...

 Yep, I felt that way about the show since the first Counting Cars episode years ago. "The Count" was brutal even when he got his start on Pawn Stars.no

Re Ron Jeremy, a few years back my brother was in a California convenience store and saw RJ doing a self serve fillip on his Saturn auto. (A short fella for sure.)

Just watched the episode on demand. Neat to see a Beaumont but cant imagine bringing back to life what they started with. (Nor what they got for it.)

Watched episode 5 last nite.......and was totally impressed.!

What a GREAT idea.......build a derby car.......and show it in competition....

You could almost believe the whole deal.......except for the last scene...where he sells some project cars...

Why is the 66 Canso Sport Deluxe still sitting in his yard if he sold it on one of the earlier episodes?

My opinion and my opinion only! All these shows r BS! Watched a few of them a few years back...stopped watching. Buy a car for 5g spend 15 on it and sell for 30g..so they made 10g? New paint/brakes/upholstery/engine tires/rims/chrome etc etc. Seems they forgot to mention that the show sponsors paid for the parts! We all know what it cost to build a car..not counting the hours involved. Just feel sorry for the general public that are led to the blind. Need the right vehicle..in the right condition and all intact..to even think of flipping for a buck! Never seen the show...don't think I'm missing much?

It's strictly entertainment, that's for sure, there's not much real about this show...

From what I'm reading, it sounds like there would be a market for a factual documentary-style restoration show with no drama, no entertainment, just the facts...

Only for genuine car guys though, the mainstream viewers wouldn't enjoy it. Sad to say, it would flop!

Friend of mine asked me if I recognized the guy with the "dreads" I didn't & asked why? He's sure that's the guy that was on Highway thru hell episode with a crew knocking down the loose shale & boulders, & also used explosives to drop the big ones!!! What twigged him was one of the containers on car program had Explosive plaques all over it,& he'd been trying to remember where he'd seen this guy.
