Did Worman pretend to punch you in the face when he showed up?

(Disclaimer: My experience watching the show only consists of seeing the stupid commercials, and that one time I saw three minutes of it where they did a full three min montage of them cleaning up the shop. Worman spend the whole time air boxing during both. I'm assuming he's still getting off on punching the camera.)

[Kern Dog]

That is funny.   
He sure is a playful guy.

I just started watching the show, it seems that they contract out a lot of the work i.e... headliner install, vinyl roof install, engine and transmission rebuild, complete dash restoration, seat restoration and glass installation.

Why would they buy anything. ? They have customers cars that have been there 3 years waiting to be fixed ?  I hope you got 10x the money for your car, selling it to Worman. !!

Most people don't know most shops contract out alot of work. LEON.

Any pics of the Challenger ? How much did it sell for ? I might have been a buyer !!

Imagine how difficult it would be to find workers that are that skilled at that many tasks. Even some of the talented guys here have areas where they are not as skilled as others.  I've known body and paint guys that are clueless about engine building and vice versa.

sorry, didnt see the request. heres the car

I personally love the show. They are the reason my Mopar Passion is boiling again. I would work there for free [cleaning toilets]. I didn't even have to think about it. The only thing holding me back is my health. I have IBS and Celiac.

Who was it that said "If you get a job that you love you will never work a day in your life" ?

I like your Challenger CB. Obviously so did Graveyard Cars' acquisitions department.

In fact it was Mark who pulled out his White Books one episode last year that got me to ask my mother to get them for me for Christimas... igniting my penchant for more information on decoding Pentastar Pavement Pounders.
One of my passions, when I was younger, was to write a book on the 440 cid engine; arguably the greatest street wedge of all time. E-Booger, as he is called in my Mopar magazines, filled my head with all sorts of cool ideas back in the 1980s.

That's one of the reasons Steve and I do just about everything involved with our projects.  For the very few items we do "farm out" it seems like we have to redo their "completed" work before it meets the standards we're looking for.  It's amazing the shortcuts some manufacturers take with their products, because they don't think their Customers will dissect the items and see how they've been "restored".

GYC posted a video on FB showing them dropping the car off today.

Watching a rerun of a season 5 episode now. This show has improved immensely.
Glad to see Darren gone. Way too negative of a guy and constantly complaining and undermining. I'm sure he's not that bad in person but the editing really made it seem that way.
No Josh either. Meh. Not a big loss.
Dave seems to know his business and genuinely care about the cars.
I'm amazed that only Dave actually has a classic Mopar of his own that he's doing. Hope to see more of it.
Will looks like he knows his stuff in a paint booth.

Hey, are YOU Mark Worman with a different screen name???   

[polywideblock]

the saying "a leopard can't change his spots" keeps coming to mind every time I here someone say how the show has improved  no thanks

[markmopar]

Not unless he dropped a few years, a few pounds and moved to New Jersey!  

[BrianShaughnessy]

I watch it if I remember to...     and I think the newer shows are better. 

I think that Daren was trying to be some kind of comic relief or a foil... whatever.   His presence distracted from the show.   Good riddance.

And frankly...  Alyssa is no doubt about it HOT.

So...    bich and moan if you must... but it's better than watching another chevy resto on TV.    You get to see nothing but mopars and maybe even learn something.   It's not all bad.

New shows start March 21st.

They are going to find out it is a lot harder to buy cars and fix them and make a profit, than just billing a customer for their work.......

But who knows, maybe like on Counting Cars, people will pay twice the market value of the car just to get on TV

Ohhh and they will pay in triplicate to have the bragging rights that their new acquisition was built by GYC....That's not something I would want done, nor admit too owning a GYC's perfumed pig resto, but some people live blindly for the "attention" that would bring them as they stand blindly and proudly along side their abortion of a restoration

Or maybe they bought it to sell as is to someone who was looking for that type car and will then pay them for doing the restoration.

Exactly!!!  All because they got a cheap "All In'" restoration price...Hence, all the mistakes and junk repop parts.....Funny, some of those abortion owners say, "Well wheres your Hemi car" or "They are restored to OE."  It is funny when push came to shove those that stated this would not have the balls to place them in an OE judged event at Carlisle or the Nats.....
