All those shows are the same, there should be more about the cars, and less drama. I run a business, I have staff, and overhead, and I don't deal with near the drama they create on that show.

If they made it without the Drama, nobody would watch it. Look here we have a Thread going for 10 Days about an A$$Clown on TV, that should explain something

[David Pozzi]

Still scratching my head on why they shimmed that subframe to the body to align the fenders.

And who's subframe did they install? I saw no mention of it or photos. It must have been a terrible sub.

i would watch a car show without drama . hell most shows i have or am interested in are low on the drama scale so to say

It was a Heidts. I was wondering if the floor wasn't installed level making the subframe sit cockeyed.

Well I watched 6 episodes of graveyard carz....i don't mind mark so much, actually I'd say the only a$$hole on that show is his worker/buddy Darren

I would tend to agree with that. IMHO most of these shows could cut down on the drama and antics.

Worman has posted some pictures of his "new team", without Darren and Josh (no longer Mark's son-in-law), and has promoted how they're going to be all business now. So we'll see what's in store, I'm looking forward to it.

[raustinss]

Wonder if he will get another show now too. He definitely knows his mopar stuff and does one hell of a job

[Paraman1]

Fantomworks is on right now while I do house work and I already want to kick Dan in the nuts even though I am barely paying attention .

[tmadden]

WOW no Darren or Josh???!!!

[zgoo]

Worman, and the show is a joke!!! Everything he knows and does is out of boxes and manuals that anybody can buy. Besides paint he just buys all the best repo parts and install them and yes he paints the cars, but what shop couldn't do that. I see no skills in what he does to cars. I think there is better TV with shows like Bitchin Rides, where there is fab work going on and real design art happening. Give me a 1969 Camaro and every new part for it and a 20k paint job and I will be a master car restorer!! I think what each one of use are doing in our home shop as more pure interest to me!

[Samckitt]

Cant stand the show & I'm in Virginia & won't drive half an hour to see his shop.

[vintageracer]

Does anybody like ANY of the car related reality shows CURRENTLY on TV????

[raustinss]

Bitchin rides is good ..fast n loud isn't too bad

[CampbellshotrodsAZ]

I like Bitchin Rides, as Dave Kindig is very talented, and a very genuine guy (I've run into him at SEMA for the last 2 years).

I think Iron Resurrection is good as well, I like their style, and they don't take themselves too serious with false drama and fake "badass" attitudes.

I think Graveyard Cars is good now that he's cut out Darren and Josh. Yes, anyone can make a car new and shiny, but he seems to know his stuff about how to make them factory fresh, not "anyone" can properly pull that off.

Wheeler Dealers is still great IMO because they focus on actual troubleshooting, and show the repairs, with no drama. I think it's the most informative show for someone trying to learn about cars without resorting to "how to" shows like Powerblock.

Garage Squad is also a decent show I believe. It shows them wrenching on real people's cars with no real drama, other than real problems and scope creep, which we can all relate to.

I believe that's all I record and watch. The top shows on my s***list for pure crap right now are Fantomworks, Big Easy Motors, and Fat and Furious.

[raustinss]

Josh don't forget the fired up crew....theres some drama lmao

[CampbellshotrodsAZ]

Lol, can't believe I forgot those clowns. I don't record that show, but I like their stuff better than Gas Monkey, probably because they're more like how GMG started years ago. I don't particularly care for Rawlings, he's not a true car guy. With his fame and fortune he's opened bars, restaurants, Tequila, rapes fans with $40 t-shirts (at least at Barrett-Jackson AZ), yet hasn't done anything to improve his shop or talents. Still a bunch of hacks. They're a shop that exists solely for being on TV. At least Mark Worman spent all his money building a dream facility.

[zgoo]

Sure Worman might be able to tell you what every number means in a vin and can bolt parts on is not talent. Installing a stock motor or trans how hard is that, I think he is just selling the nice paint. Let's see him install a hemi in the back seat and make it run and drive, that's good TV!!

[CampbellshotrodsAZ]

Sure Worman might be able to tell you what every number means in a vin and can bolt parts on is not talent.

If it's so easy then why isn't everyone doing it? Say what you want about him, but from what I see he knows his Mopars, does good work, and has set himself up to have a world class facility to make his work better and more efficient. It's not my field at all and I don't care to do it, but a 100% correct restoration is NOT easy work. It's not just making a car shiny and calling it done. You need the experience to know the way the factory dipped the control arms, or where the blue stripe denoting X should go, or what the correct routing of these vacuum hoses is. It's not work for anyone, definitely not me. That's why hotrods are much easier to build, there is no "right" way. Restoration purists are the most discriminating group out there. Not my expertise, but I can respect the detail that goes into them.

[Restomod]

I had only watched a few Fantom works then i saw the early Tbird with the GTO swap....What a screw up that was. Putting the gto suspension on a hacked up 60yo stock frame was insane! Never watched it again.



NEVER watch worman he does know the cars but he gets under my skin instantly.........
