I don't know how many of you watch Garage Squad on Velocity, but they're going to do a 1970 Duster on tonight's episode. I kinda like the show. There's not much made for TV drama and they help people get their cars out of the garage and back on the road. Plus, the blonde's not bad to look at!

They went to an hour long format this year and they seem to go a little more in depth with what they're doing to the vehicles. Plus, the lead mechanic Joe Zolper drives a blown alcohol Duster of his own!

 
I love that show myself, the challenger they did a few yrs back was a buddy of mine it his moms car. Nice looking car.

not a fan of 72-74 chally's...feel like the didn't hit the continuation mark like the cuda's did. But...this particular one is pretty cool.
 
I have never seen this , but it seems cool !!
I will have to check it out !!
I'm glad to see any shows working on and fixing old cars !
 
They help the average guy with no time/knowhow who loved old cars...get them back on the road...they're reviving drivers!
 
Wouldn't let those hackers any where near my car...........
 
My opinion dropped about 95 points after the 72 Challenger show when they GOT RID OF THAT THERMOQUAD and put on a POS Edelbrock carb.

You do realize that the Edelbrock carb is just a Carter AFB that was used by Mopar for years? Thermoquads have always had the reputation for being hard to tune.

On the last Garage Squad with the 68 Chevelle the first thing they did was tear off the Edelbrock carb (which looked fine) and threw it in the junk pile. Later when they were doing the start up, behold the Holley replacement. So I guess they really don't know what they're doing?!?!

Getting rid of the "thermo-bog" is smart move but I wouldn't use the pos Edelbrock either..

Its all Hollywood. I enjoy watching anything related to or old cars, IF the stars really love the old car deal. I know $$ is the root of it all, but if you watch close you can tell upon occasion when these guys really love the old cars.
That's a pretty Duster stroked340 ... looks great in orange.
