I agree,
Of course a lot of the "drama" is there to make the show interesting to people who don't give a flying fig about cars, but I saw them polish several turds on the show.
One with a 57 Chevy they were rushing for the dealer owner comes to mind, they showed them bolting new chrome to a rusty bracket and that to a nasty looking underbody. why people spend big money with disfunctional people (Boyd, OCC, Hennessy, etc.) is beyond me other than the dick-waving ego of having your car done by the guy on TV?
