    Pretty much every single one of those car shows are nonsense. In his youtube channel Jay Leno regularly takes the piss out of them, for good reason. As he has pointed out, nobody is doing anything like a proper restoration/rebuild/upgrade in a week. They're scripted entertainment.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    The worst one I can think of for made up dead lines was American hotrod with boyd coddington and his yes men.
    A fcukin jokeshop of a place if ever there was one.
    Full episodes available on you tube
    You can see last weeks important deadline cars still on the lifts in the background of this week’s deadline if you look carefully.
    Boyd died since and the absolute gobsh1te Duane was bagged and put off the road.
    A farce of a show.
    American chopper was good at the start until they turned it into a never ending counselling session and made a fcuk of it.
    As for mikeen brewer he should be filed in the farce/comedy section

    The Goblin Girl is hot though and worth watching for that alone:D

    Mike Brewster was funny, he had all the fun and left Ed to do all the hard work,
    Ed seems to know his stuff

    Ed was great. Not saying Amstead was bad but like with Bond after Sean Connery the others just aren't the same.

    Antstead is far more James Bond than China ever will be :pac:

    Have to say I much prefer Antstead. He explains what he is doing well. And his enthusiasm also makes for far nicer TV. China was getting lazier each episode. Didn't seem to want to be there at all. Good riddance.

    Well for me Ed is the original and best. There seemed to be some needle with him and Mike towards the end though and it showed. Ant is like Ed in many ways too.
