Is this a new TV show or something?

I came here to day hit the scaling with a metal brush to remove flaking and follow up with a converter, but then realized it was about a show

Yeah, I just watched it. Nothing new from any other show. But then again, 20 years ago I would have loved to have a show like this! I'll have to watch a few more episodes before making a judgment, but indifferent is how I feel at this moment as well.

I was well into the wine on my day off but swear they pulled the front end outta a '62 Chevy PU to replace it w/ a 'independent' front suspension from another '62. They were the same berkeleying indie thing. And this is where they insult my intelligence. Fab skills, body n paint work was on the up so there might be something to learn there, that's really why I watch anyway. I didn't care for the completed truck at all, maybe bits n pieces. Give it another watch next week anyhow.

I caught it. I thought it was bogus they ditched the step side for a style side, then completely filled the tailgate so the back end was a solid mass.

I don't love custom car shows, because I usually don't care for the builds, usually there's a few I like, but their overall builds are just meh to me.

What professional sand blaster or restoration shop does not know that blasting a large flat surface is very likely to warp it? (I think this was in the show in question)

I find all the cars shows nice, but I am a bit worried about over saturation taking them all down. I does seem like most of them have gotten the message that you should try to provide useful tips about what they are doing though, which is nice. (e.g. even saw that graveyard doofus show how you have to put a lot of coats of color to completely hide a primer coat)
