Seems like a nice show. Low key techs..Tony, his dad, and uncle run the shop.
Their shop doesn't look to be stand alone.. looks like they are in an industrial set of buildings.

Very cool shows they fix up alot of cars like a 70 429 4sp torino,chevy nova,jeeps etc...most fixes are for the average guys some vehicles people with money get done there but most are just average Joe's trying to keep there stuff rolling down the road,not prize poodles! drive

Cool idea, probably not enough drama / bs for the main networks. I've actually had several calls over the years for doing a reality based show, NO 💩!! When I told them the 💩 currently being produced was about as far from REALITY as one could get and if they REALLY were serious about the REALITY part I'd be more than willing to talk. Actually got a call back from one. When I told him the average rotisserie resto took 1500-2000 hours he asked was that 150-200 hours? I said No you heard it right. HMM never heard back LOL

There was a PBS program about 40 years ago in Ca. called Last Chance Garage. Somewhat grumpy old fart like I am now, in an older repair shop. they would bring him cars that no one else had been able to fix with the receipts. He'd review them and then proceed to DIAGNOSE the issue explaining what and why he was approaching the problem the way he was. He would usually then say this is what they missed. It was a great show and I learned several things watching it. Ranked right up there with Charles Kuralt IMO
But that was when you could believe SOME of what was on the TUBE twocents beer

i have often wondered what a reality show would be like, if some of the hijinx that was pulled during my junkyard ownership days [1972-1984/85], were to have been filmed.
my partner and i certainly did some unorthodox shenanigans in that time frame, when it came to stuff unrelated to buying and selling vehicles and parts.
maybe something like dum and dumer meet joe dirt and his sheep friend............ biggrin panic laugh2
