Neat little bit of their site, !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . Their ebay site is !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , seems to be where they list most items.

I know Fast N'Loud isn't unanimously liked on Oppo, personally I LOVE the black F-40.

And I like most of the cars they do, would really like to have an old rat rod style classic with upgraded internals and a clear-coat. Anyway, thought it was cool that they had their inventory posted, good insight into upcoming episodes.

Apparently so do they! Pretty cool car, even cooler if it's got some racing history.

I only watch the show when I fly, but when I fly it always seems to be on. I appreciate the end product that they put out most of the time. I assume a lot of the haggling and goofball stuff is staged for the audience. I wish they had more details of the restorations/

I did as well, but now I'm hooked. I think I've seen most episodes via DVR.

Agreed, I'm betting some of the negotiation is done beforehand and ad-libbed for TV. And yeah, there are times where they just jump the edit to the end where the car is done and you want to see more!

I did a short feature on a DeSoto Powermaster Wagon they were selling a few months back. Sweet car for the cash.

I wasn't sold on them at first either.

But after watching a few full episodes, I realized how not-seriously they take themselves. I found it refreshing they really just don't care if they appear as goofy, car-loving nuts on TV. And, it's nice to hear Richard talk about how, we, us, team, did the work instead of just him.

The chrome alone on this beast should weight 1500 lbs, so expect performance to be similar to a UPS truck.

lol!

Yeah I just checked the auction. Strange that it has an automatic.... love the cooling tubes on the pan though.

Dat price... you have to love AMCs to pay that much.

Well, knowing the Gas Monkey Mark Up, it's probably overpriced by about $30k.

Why do I want that Lincoln so bad?

Oh right, V12.

Giant car, giant engine, tiny horsepower lol

God I have enough trouble finding parts for a 68 Mercury I can't imagine a 48 Lincoln would be any easier. LET ALONE A FLATHEAD V12.
