Glad you enjoyed. I really like Ant. He's a very skilled fella and takes time to explain how things work. 1 hour ago, Chuckyg1 said: Not mentioned yet is Phantom Works. I really like the down to earth style of Dan and his crew. I quite agree. If I had a car screwed up by someone else, I'd take it to Dan to get it un-screwed up. Sadly though the show is over. From what I've read these shows demand a LOT of time from the cast, and get in the way of day to to day operations of the garage. I can imagine Dan would only put up with that for so long. Long work days. That's why Shorty doesn't appear on the current season of Iron Resurrection. As a recent grandfather, he wanted more family time. I find these shows facinating and fun for the most part. I like keeping them on in the background when I'm building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a bad list and I agree 110% on the first 3 (Mark is an HR nightmare come to life, can’t stand how Kevin acts on camera, and not a fan of BadChad) but I can tolerate Chris (he’s completely different on “Long Lost Family”) and Horny Mike, while Victor may have his moments, that could hurt the show from a project standpoint.

larman Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Ian Roussel's show and Roadkill are the two car shows I will watch in their entirety. Used to like the one with Peter Klutt, Dream Car Garage? He knows his stuff and seems legit, too. I don't even bother with stuff like Street Outlaws, Graveyard Cars, Counting Cars, Ass Monkey whatever it is, Overhaul'in, Bitch'n Rides, etc. Complete nonsense in my book. I will occasionally record Chasing Classic Cars or "Garage Squad" (which is goofy, but sometimes has somewhat neat cars), I usually fast forward through these and only stop on something if it interests me or to the end to see the finished car on Garage Squad. The absolute worst car show IMO was PINKS. Idiot premise and that bald dope that ran it wasn't even a car guy. LMAO when I saw the youtube video of him dumping his bike in front of a crowd at one of the events! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STYRENE-SURFER Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 He's JUST ok. I would rather spend my time watching quality work being done with the hope I may learn something from the experience. I like the guy, wish he put more into details. And if I have to watch him one more time wrestling big body parts or what not by himself?
