Car show Wheeler Dealer

Re: Car show Wheeler Dealer

Garage Squad almost doesn't suck...but they recently expanded it to an hour (from a 1/2 hour) and its blatantly apparent the show now has more 'filler' material, commercials and general clowning around than actual work. I fear its on the downhill slide too..

I liked it because it cut the middle ground many 'project' cars have fallen into. Not running and needs TLC, but the owner doesn't have the wherewithall to do a complete restoration....so getting it running and roadworthy is the goal...

Yes garage squad is a good clean show that just gets a car sitting (most cases all apart) back on the road so the owner can enjoy it. Not every car or owner wants a total restoration. Just a good driving car is all some require. Nothing wrong with that. After all it gets the old iron on the road again. The show is fairly good at showing the techniques or the work done. Yes this is a decent show.
