You're correct about that. Watch episode two you'll notice that some parts didn't arrive. They were unable to locate and have the correct shifter and alternator shipped and installed in the allotted 60 days. They ordered the period correct parts, they simply didn't arrive in time. They also didn't hide it for the show, they fessed up.

Hopefully they learned something from the experience. I wouldn't trust RR with my car.
They not only hired the right person to do the job right, they kept him on staff while getting rid of two guys that were f'ing up. You don't like them personally, great. Not giving credit where it's due just makes you look foolish though dude.

Meh, whatever, if you trust a guy that polishes a hood ornament then flips a car for big money more power to ya. I will say this, he can sell gullible people things for 4 or 5X's what they are worth. Make ya look foolish if you buy into his sales tactics.

Its a TV show, if he did business like they show on there do you think he would have any repeat customers? They need a disclaimer, for entertainment purposes only....I bet not all of their jobs look like what is being done for the show, or they couldn't stay in business for long...
