Mark produces his own show not Motortrend so he takes on all the cost of doing the actual show. Much higher renewal rate on shows like that because MT basically has no risk and no cost outlay to make it. GYC just charges for them to run the show but he keeps all the rights.

What I hate about all these shows the supposedly super tight deadlines, but they always have time for some of field trip to a ball game, go carting, museum, etc. Does anyone really care where they go? We watch car shows for the cars. Get back to work on the cars......

Well, I sat through the new episode of GYC- so you won't have to Basically nothing of value was shown, unless you want velvet inserts in your seats. I'd like to have that time back, especially after seeing how tasteless and ugly the daughter had the crew make her Challenger.

Mt needs to assess their programming, Tired of seeing Kindig(egyption beard) and that jackass with the hat all the time. Iron Resurrection is ok but too much cheby crap. If they cut out all the nonsense on GYC it would be easier to watch. I watched one where there was nothing but nonsense and nothing about the cars. Heck yes too much Kindig and dumbazz "Kev Dog" with his 45 year old man wannabe hip hop look. I like Texas Metal despite not liking the builds. So much talent. I'll watch GYC out of my desperation to see Mopars.

i think it would be a mix of "egypt bead", "kev dork", dOc [or DiC if you prefere] fLaPpiNgAsS, mark "the worm", and other aSSorted misfits, along with numerous ian rousell's, engine masters, "magneto's" superb memory, fabrication talent ala iron resurrection and others, and many, many guys that wouldn't be happy even "if ya hung 'em with a new rope" [as my old man used to say] the only thing missing would be Amanda...............

Yes, I forgot to mention that I also almost always record then watch with my finger on FF. But I actually don't hate Mark. I think he's exactly the kind of guy I would've hung out with in high school along with Royal.

I like GYC. The only thing annoying thing about Mark is a lot of his joking around material is old and repetitive. The fantom works guy had an attitude that was annoying too but it was an interesting show to watch. Bitchin Rides is the show I can't stand watching. I agree with all. I still watch re-runs of Fantom Works. I hope Wayne Carini is coming back too. Bill on Texas Metal use to annoy me just based on appearance lol, but then I gave him more of a chance and he seems really cool, a good family guy, and zero b.s. drama! I like him now and while I really don't like the typical build of his (tahoe or silverado with humongous wheels, etc.) I'm so impressed with their talents.

GYC hasn’t been watchable for 7+ years, the format & content is terrible, it really went down hill after Daren left.

Watched some of it for the first time about a month ago on youtube. No different than most "altered reality" TV shows with fake deadlines, fake drama, lack of info, etc., etc. I'd rather watch Derik on Vise Grip Garage pull a car out of the woods, throw a battery in, pour some gas in the carb, get it running, stop at 22 parts stores over 600 miles on his way home with it & then paint it for $29.99 like Earl Schieb.

Derek is pretty fun to watch! And he is knowledgeable, and doesn't seem to be a smartass. I also like watching Roadkill Garage, but for quite awhile now, it's turned into Frieburger, and Dulchich building a never ending supply of David's own personal project cars. As in: 1- F-Rod 2- Crop Duster 3- 56 Chevy 4- Jeep (s)...etc..etc..

Yeah Derek's retty good and does stuff cheaply.Defiate like the 67 coronet.Also like Restoration Garage too. The vice grips guy IIRC ran drag week put wheels on his car with the wrong lug nuts. Tried explain that it was something else that caused the wheel to fall off, eat the studs and 1/4 panel. Nah, man, put the right lugs on and the wheel likely stays firmly attached.

Agreed JERICOGTX. The only thing Daren brought to the show was drama and nonsense. I agree. Whiney drama queen manufactured drama. Same for the stupid knucklehead son in law.

I think Mark's daughter has been with maybe two different guys now, since divorcing Mr. Rose. I think it's cool Mark is making a copy of his first Mopar (1970 Charger)..how many of us would like to have our very first car, back in our hands...I know I would.

Remaking his first car shows he's a car guy and one of the reasons I wrote I'd actually like to hang out with him. I bet he has funny stories from his youth, as many of us do! His antics are for TV.

I'm thinking/hoping that grancuda meant that things went down hill after Dave Rea left. I think that Daren was less watchable than anyone else on the show, but of course that is just my opinion. I stopped watching after Dave left because I felt the portions of the show that were most informative were the ones featuring him. Yep, surely he meant Dave! Dave has a You Tube channel and puts out some great content. He does some nice work in his own shop now. Nope, I don’t mean Dave, the show started out entertaining with Mopar content as the background for various antics. I don’t care for watching step by step of how to assemble stuff, it’s boring. I don’t care about chalk marks & date codes. Watching Dave or anyone else assemble a 70 Charger bumper assembly or put a fastback 67-69 Barracuda interior together is as exciting as watching paint dry. Watching Mark quiz his unknowable daughter about vins & data plates is ridiculous, I’ve got a redbook & GG white books, I don’t need to hear mark spew that info. It used to be entertaining & it isn’t now.

There are shows on YouTube where the guys just weld up the new panels etc and no bs. It can be hard to follow a build though. People without a crew have spaces in releases so works best to watch one a few years old so it’s all there.
I have MT and will keep it, but I’m getting sick of the shop builds on roadkill. Original concept was to fire something up and road trip it as close to dead as possible. Now cars get whole new mechanicals out on every inch of the car before they hit the road. That was the roadkill garage concept and it meets expectations, but not the original show.

I just wish Dave didn't grow the creepy pony tail And speaking of creepy, his business partner Larry. But I like watching their work. Yeah the pandemic hair was a bit strange but a lot of people were doing that and his new look is creepy for sure. In a way he doesn't add much to the show it's more interesting to see what his guys are doing and working on. Before the show stsrted he used to write a newspaper colum about various classic car related things that was usually interesting to read.

Even the shop builds, are thrown together junk, with stuff the guys have laying around. Most car guys have plenty of extra junk sitting around, that can be reused. I have no problem with them improving the cars they already have. It's to show that once the car is driving, it can be upgraded over time, and make it better, and better. I've been to car shows, that the owner got it barely running 20 years ago, and then just gave up, and the car hasn't changed since then. Personally, I like to make improvements every year.

I agree ! Full Custom Garage .. that guy is talented ! and he seems down to earth .. can't watch KIndig between that weird goat tee and the way to modified cars ... Iron Resurection is good also talented but not enough Mopars... at least Freilberger and Dulcich have a lot of Mopars ...I like Texas Metal also and some of the trucks he does ... I like GYC .. I get a kick out of seeing Tony ... I remember him when he lived in Orange Cty. N.Y. and ran a GTX at my local track years ago.

Watchn Full Custom Garage this morning Ian's working on a couple old Ford trucks.There not mopars but still cool.Ians Ike a young Gene Winfield.The 1st cars I fell in love with as a kid was George Barrisis customer cars,our newborn kids had photos of the cars on their walls,car models and a glow in the dark model creature from the black lagoon. I hesitate to say this......but if you like custom cars and fabrication. Check out Bad Chads you tube vids. Nothing like the show that was on a few years ago, other than he does use too much "rock guard" I know he has his haters and some of his stuff can appear to be rough but he is building a 50 Ford 2 door right now that I would call an extreme custom. Not much of it is to my taste but the top chop was very interesting, and I could not believe how quickly he did it.. I would also suggest watching him build the "tanker". Very cool. He is also building a replica Bugatti from nothing. The guys uses very little more than an angle grinder and a mig welder. Couple words of advice if you decide to watch some of it. They are about an hour long, I find myself fast forwarding through a lot of the angle grinding as once I watch about 30 seconds of that I "got it" and can move to the next operation lol As an aside, I don't know the whole story, but he spent time at Gene Winfields shop learning how they did customs back in the day.

Latest episode I watched, features two Cuda's. One is a '70 440+6 FC7 with white interior, the car looks like it was dragged out of a swamp. They were tearing down the 440, which was a complete mess, and looked awful. The other was iirc, a '70 Sassy Grass 383 4spd? That car was getting new sheet metal welded onto it. Point is, in this episode...Mark did the entire episode, without any kind of shenanigans. He was straight forward, in presenting each vehicle, and trying to "teach" viewers about the cars. It was refreshing to see him, not acting up, or doing anything goofy...(except in the intro, acting as a used car salesman)

I hope this will be the new format going forward.

Yes, maybe $25,000. Even still, way out of my league for something that needs over $100,000 put into it.

I believe Mark is eventually going to sell that 440+6 Cuda, as part of his 'Graveyard Motors' used car lot. I'm curious to see how that 440 #'s block turns out, after going to a machine shop. Hope it can be saved.

On a humorous note: what do y'all think a Moparts TV show would look like ? The guys would be in the shop checking on when parts were going to arrive, then a guy would come in and start talking about when the Pony Express used to bring mail to his house, the rest of the show would be a discussion on horses

He might be correct, but let's see what the machine shop has to say, and what the verdict is.

Point is, in this episode...Mark did the entire episode, without any kind of shenanigans. He was straight forward, in presenting each vehicle, and trying to "teach" viewers about the cars. It was refreshing to see him, not acting up, or doing anything goofy...(except in the intro, acting as a used car salesman) If you ever worked in a Body Shop, you'd know they are filled with "characters". I actually like when he tells stories about him and Doug when they were younger.

BUT, wasn't that the episode in which is daughter went to dealership for new (to her) car? Geez, not interested!
