Roadkill Garage

I have been wrenching on cars for 60 of my 71 years. These guys are an absolute joke. They take cars that are classics deserving decent treatment and give them the chewing gum and duct tape treatment. Then for additional insult, they take them out and flog them on the road. Absolutely pathetic.

Laroy mobile mechanics love this show . We watch you all of the time. The Cadillac with the cummins engine was awesome . Have a great crew that really know there way around the shop. We are located in Newport News Va working on local vehicles. My family has always kept me around cars as a kid just so in love with old-school vehicles. Just wanted to tell you guys how help the show is to me and my family working on vehicle every day. The fabrication work that your crew does is crazy. Keep up the good work it helps out the small business owners and their guys God bless you and your crew to keep up the good work.

What am I missing here? I still don't get it. What's the appeal of bubblegum duct tape auto work and then driving what could have been a restorable car? This show must be the counterpart to...uh...good shows.

These guys talk a good game (probably because of the writers) but when they start wrenching it's like they've never seen a tool before. They're totally awkward working on the cars and I doubt they have actual experience.

Some of these other reviews are rough.

Not every car show needs to show a renovation to concours condition.

This is a case in point.

The show usually goes like this: two presenters take a beaten old car and drive from point A to B - usually with a little mechanical work along the way.

To me it's a pretty sweet show.

Not everyone has the money to do everything perfectly and this reflects that sentiment.

For me there's a big up side and down side.

Down side... I have to be frank, the presenters are knowledgeable but not big characters... as such it can feel a little boring at points.

Up side... they don't stray away from education on the show. To me that's a huge thing. They aim to impart a good 3-4 things a show, half of which were new to me. A good show for learning things on.
