You know, those cars may have been a POS to you, but to them it was their way around. Yeah they went a little extremem on alot of them, but that adds to the entertainment of the show. Plus I highly doubt that they would let a car go without something done to the engine, whether it be a rebuild or a new engine. I do enjoy all the automotive shows, but I really like the Overhaulin episode where West Coast Customs did the car. I guess I take offense to this because I had a real POS as my first car that I wanted them to pimp out.
