I love watching all things mechanical, especially relating to petrol. I've watched most of this show and the more I do... the more confused I become.
Am I the only person that thinks their work is absolutely awful? I watch for the entertainment and never the inspiration. Even their basic work I see as being very basic and low end. Each interaction seems set up as I don't believe people would actually pay the money for these monstrosities.
I just watched an episode with a 308 GTS (the one from Magnum). The idea was to surprise a guy for his birthday by imitating the 308 from Magnum itself. It ended up nothing like the original and they actually hacksawed parts off of the main structure at the front to make the oversize wheel/tyre combo fit. There are so many issues it's difficult to put into words without running over the character limit.
The last part was creating a mechanism to rotate the license place like a James Bond car. He did it with a door popper and it never hit the right alignment once, yet everyone cheered for how inventive it was.
Orange peel paint, gaps in the bodywork, increasing overall running circumference of tyres by up to 50%, it's all just wild to me.
Oh.... they spray painted the 308 without even taking the headlights out
Yet still I watch! Am I alone?
