I know everyone is not a fan, but the show returns November 2 on Velocity. I personally don't care for the drama, but do like to see the Mo pars and occasionally learn something that will help me complete the restoration of my Barracuda
 
my POS cable co. dropped Velocity last year - no warning, just not available with your package - upgrade now... dirty f.....ers
 
Mine is direct TV and still carries Velocity
 
Agreed, so many of the other shows rarely feature Mopars that it's cool to see an all Mopar show for a change. While I respect the knowledge he has about the brand, I get tired on occasion listening to Mark's babbling about himself. I'd also enjoy seeing an actual A Body done on the show.
 
A friend's Hemi Roadrunner convertible should be one of the featured cars this season.
He and his wife flew up to Oregon to pick it up a couple of months ago, but ended up having to leave it while they did some extra filming and also to fix some things he didn't like that they did. He also told me he had a bit of a hassle with Mark over the tires - they originally told him they'd put on the brand of tires he wanted but a different brand were on the car when they saw it. It took awhile, but he ended up with what he wanted - and what he paid for.
He still has a few complaints about their final product due to scratches under the hood and other places from when they had to make changes to fix what hadn't been done per the original contract.
I don't know how much it cost him - but at the prices they charge it should be perfect when you get your car back.
 
With the price some of these shows charge I would expect it perfect restoration.
 
I was watching some of the shows on u tube, but they have started to change to watch,

Yea...Like that Bozo on Fantomworks charging $50K for a factory correct A/C setup for a 52 Cadillac. I tape Graveyard Cars and buzz through all the BS. Mark is one of those people you want to punch in the mouth even though you don't really know him.

I have yet to see them use any fender protections while working under the hoods of their final products
 
I refuse to watch this show after getting to talk personally with Daren , Josh and derrek. There's a lot of stuff that isn't public knowledge but these 3 were greatly done wrong by Mark. He owes them A TON of money and Darren lost his challenger because of Mark.

I've spoken with darren and gotten his advice and tips on mopars. He's not the goofy *** he played on the show. Honestly, the dude will talk your head off about mopars.

Also. I do know that he, Derrick and Josh are in the midst of relocating and starting their own new Mopar exclusive show.
 
Its a great show, all mopars. Mark and those guys are good, who would have thought there would ever be a show like this on TV.
 
Still looking for cudadad's 69 'cuda 383 car to be highlighted

Change?
I really like Graveyard Cars. I wanted to strangle Daren the first two years (yes, I realize that may all have been an act for the cameras), but the new format is much better. I learn a lot from the show.
 
They just posted an ad for two body techs. $10 to $15 an hour, depending on experience.

If that's all they pay their guys, I wouldn't be surprised if things were not perfect. Half *** wage delivers half *** work.

Charge, gotta love it when the phone corrects your spelling
 
I'll start watching them again but for a some what restoration I'd take my car to bitchin rides, course that's if I had that kind of money. Fantom works is cool to watch as well.
