Default lords of the car hoards

Last nights episode had a Pontiac hoarder from Nevada on. They wound up doing a 55 in Rick Dore style.

I've been watching this show for the last 3 weeks. Kind of interesting but typical drama TV stuff.

Not sure how long you could make a business out of doing that but it beats watching American idol.

I wish they showed more of the build and less of the drama. Rick Dore has a great eye and builds some of the best customs. I would of liked to see more of that pontiac last night.

Default 55 chieftian on car hoarder show

The owner of those Pontiacs let some nice projects go to get that frame off restomod done. That said, the finished Chieftian looked good. I'm not sure if you can build an high performance 287 Poncho engine, but it's great that they used that motor for the project.

I understand the premise of the show and car hoarders can be difficult to deal with, but I don't care for his "Don't you know who I am, you should be greatful I'm even talking to you" attitude.

I've seen 2 episodes. Its just another fake reality show. I only want to check out the cars. There are a few car hoarders around here, so the idea for the show is interesting. But like all the other shows, too much drama.

I'm not sure about the Hulkster, but Bill Goldberg is a car guy.

Its ashame this is what the networks want instead of more of the build. This would be a way better show with more of the build. Does anybody on here know the pontiac hoarder that was on last episode?

I saw some of the cars for sale on e-bay ,I think around summer time ,not priced to bad. The add did say it was for a Tv show.
They seem to be more into the Boyd C type cars and sell off the muscle cars.

Default the show

A fan of the show and I am still wondering why they haven't listed parts for sale on this site?? If the guy they have selling the parts for the new builds is out there HELLO get on the VARIOUS SITES and sell us some good parts. DID YOU SEE THAT 67 400 WHITE FIREBIRD he had included in that lot? :NICE
