I didn't stay up to watch it, was to tired.

There is this little box you can get for your TV, it's called a DVR and you can set it to record anything at any time then you can watch the show whenever you want. I don't think I could watch TV, I mean HDTV without my HDTV DVR using HDMI plugged into Surround Sound. :confused04:;
I don't have to go to work in the morning....

watched it today and I was disappointed, I thought they would show it as a restoration project.

Jack the theme of this show is finding car to flip at an action and sell. The second show last night was about the Porsche cab,a garage find,they didn't even wash it or go through the brakes,turned around and sold it to a another collector! #banghead

I have watched alot of these episodes and theres one I think he is in Africa and you can hear in the background someone bidding 1 million but,  not sure it was American dollars.  I like the show and yes it's all about the flipping of cars and mostly High End ones. If you want to see the Flipping of more affordable rides there's The guy in flordia and the show is called South Beach Classics not sure it's still on TV.  His website is here Hes kinda pricey but you can make offers.

I don't watch the show to often but when it first started I remember them restoring cars, thats why  I watched it. I recorded the the Porsche one also.


Bob, I'm sure your TV works fine, my folks had a setup like that, TV, radio and record player in one, I think it was a Philco.

Fifty years ago. #@rofl3
