Hey, I live in a car show! Between my entire family, we have probably had or still have 55-60 cars.

Careful, comments like that might get you added to my signature!

Nope, your signature is full.  :P   :D

One show the guys keep telling me to watch is Diesel Brothers, though I haven't looked it up yet.

Also I am not worthy of such an honor.

YouTube is where the action is. I did post some channels I like a few times.

YouTube channels are faster with reviews and news and the quality of their shows is at least as good as the proper channels.

The Russian (?) channels with the pretty women?  :rofl:

They have a bit of everything. Buddy comedy, tech, tips, food, driving, competition and cars. The SuperGramps build is a good series.

I've watched the first two episodes of Diesel Brothers, and quite enjoyed them.  :tu:

It got mentioned in another thread but the alternative to Top Gear in the UK is Fifth Gear.  It's gone through a slew of presenters over the years, some good, some not so good, but I'd rather watch Vicki Butler-Henderson over Sabine Schmitz any day of the week.

They added "Dallas Car Sharks" on one of our channels, basically they buy at auction, fix up and sell, like many of the other shows with a cost vs profit final standing

I have a soft spot for Car SOS, I guess a kind of British version of overhauling, less bling, but maybe a bit more feels, and I think more interesting cars.

Another low budget British show is this one:



The presenter/builder isn't a mechanic, he's a veterinarian who just happens to like things mechanical.  He goes on to build a motorbike, a plane and one or two other things.

Apparently Strip N' Rip is called Vegas Rat Rods over on that side of the pond.

Sometimes it's harder for me to figure out the name as the EPG here is the Spanish name, in the show titles sometimes is the European distribution name which at times varies from the original show titles  :facepalm:

Anyways, with our newly added free to air channels it seems like we're getting more and more shows.

I like what they do, but admit it's not for me... Hell even Graveyard Carz doing only mopar restorations to factory original for the most part isn't what I'd want... Maybe a Fast n Loud/Misfit Garage vintage 70s 'cuda with modern engine/drivetrain is more what I'd like.

I've heard of that one.  I don't recall if I've ever seen it though.  I'm on my phone now or I'd check out the video you posted.  I'll have a look later on.

Roadkill is supposed to be pretty good. If you can find it on Youtube, Stacey David has a show called Gearz. He was awesome on Trucks as well.

This is a 72 Chevy C10 he did called Project Copperhead.

It's not new to me,  but I have been watching Jay Leno's Garage a bit more intently lately. 



That is a sweet car for sure!

I have started watching Bad Chad, so far there's only 6 EPs of the TV broadcast show, but he has a heap of web stuff as you do.



The irony here is that his shop is in Canning, Nova Scotia.

I spent several of my younger years just up (and down) the road from his shop, and went to school a few years just around the corner.

It's one of those places I've been itching to go back to, as I kinda feel like it's my roots even though none of the places I lived even seem to exist anymore (or at least I can't find them on Google street view... it has been nearly 40 years after all)

I love that he works with what he has, makes things unique.
