Re: Favorite Automotive Restoration TV Shows

New Topic!

So I got to wondering which of the Automotive Restoration TV Shows there are out there are your favorite(s).

I've learned a lot from watching some of these shows. I've done metal work that I never would have tried before and other things as well..

So. What are your favorites and why? I'm interested.

I like Fantom Works, Garage Squad and Overhaulin'.......

Absolutely CAN'T STAND Graveyard Carz.............that Worman guy makes me puke! Way too much artificial drama
Same with American Hot Rod.....fix the darn car and forget all the artificial confrontation.......

Re: Favorite Automotive Restoration TV Shows

New Topic!

Somebody the other day mentioned watching the All Girls Garage TV Show and having been laid up a bit lately, I have been watching more TV than usual.. (Reading too, but no one seems to be interested in books anymore.)

So I got to wondering which of the Automotive Restoration TV Shows there are out there are your favorite(s).

My favorites include:

Wheeler Dealers - I even like 'Ant' as well as I did Edd China

Iron Resurrection - With the Martin Bros.

I used to like Fast n' Loud but quit watching it when Arron Kaufman left. Now I'm trying Shifting Gears with Arron to see if I like it.

Of course Overhaulin' You have to like Foose and AJ. Jessi Combs was a great team member and now Arianny Celeste of UFC fame is on there.. (Google that Boo!!)

Vegas Rat Rods Builds some interesting looking machines

And if you're a Mopar person (sorry about that) then you have to watch Graveyard Cars at least the guys daughter shows up once and a while to break up the monotony of his giving you the exact part number of the correct ashtray for a 1968 Dodge Super Bee. Boring!!!!

Inside West Coast Customs is a sort of niche show, if you're into that sort of thing.

Speed is the New Black is another...

Of course we've already mentioned All Girls Garage but I expect some guys do some of the work when they are off camera and that seems a bit phony to me.

I've actually been to Wayne Carini's Chasing Classic Cars shop in CT

Then there are many more: Top Gear, Counting Cars, Gearz, Monster Garage, Two Guys Garage, Misfit Garage, Jay Lenno's Garage and probably many more that I've forgotten.

I've learned a lot from watching some of these shows. I've done metal work that I never would have tried before and other things as well..

So. What are your favorites and why? I'm interested.

I hate to put it this way but I like them all. Reason behind it is because they are not the dribble my wife watches all the time. It actually makes me sick to my stomach at times. Stuff like Keeping Up with the Kardashians and crap like that just makes me ill. And she has to keep up with everybody that's a major star everywhere. After I get home and she gets up from her nap she normally watches something about Stars and what they're doing. Three or four shows in a row and all of them basically repeats of the show before. Anytime I can watch anything except for that crap I'm happy to watch it. Even though I hardly ever watch TV. Mostly it is on Saturday and Sunday mornings before she gets up.

OH BOY ..... the wifeys shows... I'm kinda fortunate, My BIL's wifey tapes General Hospital and ALL the similar shows, after work, she plays em all, she watches The Simpsons, Big-Bang Theory, and other goofy schitt, drives him crazy so he either goes into the bedroom & watches his favs there, or goes to the garage with a schitt-load of brewskis, I'm kinda lucky at least my wifey watches some of the HGTV shows, Fixer-Upper, Property-Bros., etc.,etc.,etc, AND FOX NEWS ... ( Thank You Jesus !! ) of course she likes the romance B/S on Hallmark Channel too, I like to watch the Who-Dunit type shows, or, the History Ch. , Nat Geographic, .... Nascar is when I have SUPREME RULE over the TV !! I miss the GREAT old shows, The Honeymooners, Laugh-In, Rowan& Martin, All in the Family, Johnny Carson, etc. I'm NOT into much as a sports fan anymore, big business has their greedy hands into everything, all the games we played as kids (LUCKY US) are now for schitt,.. taken over by sports conglomerates, It kills me to see these M-F @&@!$#&%$# makin millions of dollars and beechin about everything, All they respect is MONEY, cause they sure as hell DON'T respect people OR America ... GREEDY A-Hole Bassturds .. TV ?? NAH .. I'd almost rather watch paint dry or clean the trash cans...
