Counting Cars

[satellite66]

I watched Counting Cars for the first time last night. Pretty cool cars though the show is probably staged like most of them are. Anyway, in the opening credits they show a brief clip of a dealership that looks to only deal in old mopars, at least that's all you can see. Was wondering if anyone knew which dealership that was.

You mean the one that has the 2 gen 3 Chargers & a Dart in the front row ?? I think it is... don't know if they would still have the same cars, the shows been on for a couple seasons now, with same beginning credits... I really don't know, but also have noticed the same thing...

I know this is sorta off topic but I don't much care for their taste in customizing cars. I am by no means a purist I just think they take things too far more often than not. But I like watching it just the same.

Yeah that's the one. I was just curious if they only dealt in mopars.

I don't care too much for the artwork on the cars, I like them simple. Other than that I haven't seen anything too far over the top (well except maybe the modern tires on old cars, I don't like that look at all).

Try Google I did a search for Used Muscle Car dealers in Las Vegas, it had a bunch listed, I didn't see any Mopar specialty sale companies thou, but I only scanned the 1st page...

I like the show, not so much the work they do but it's entertaining especially that goofy French dude. I just wish these car shows would show more of the building and less of the B.S.

It's not terrible.

Not anti-Mopar, like some other shows.

Fairly well balanced, actually.

Some stuff I don't care for, but I'd sure like to be able to do what they do.

My Satellite is very clean, straight and solid, but even if I put 35K in it, I doubt I could find someone to give me 35K for it!

...although I sure wish I could find the folks that pay 5K plus for "restorable" cars, cause I CAN find 'em for a lot less than that!

They do seem to have a respect for the old school stuff as well as the more modern trends.

Could be a lot worse.

If "Graveyard" had a similar mix of "car/car related" to "BS drama".....

They had a 69 Charger r/t on the show last night ...the overall resto was pretty nice IMO but the eagle they painted on the hood was just too much for me

 

[YY1]

Agree.

...but it was "only" a $72,000 build!!

 

[satellite66]

I too didn't care for the eagle (not sure the guy who bought the car cared for it either).

 

[Mike Z]

The eagle on the hood would have to go for me.

 

[64BEL]

Yeah, if you want a huge eagle on the hood, get a Trans Am.
