Hello Everyone, I was trying to put it into my DVR and discovered "Backroad" is one word. Hope this helps someone.

Ugh, up against Wheeler Dealers and American Pickers, the two shows I can record. I have to do some thinking...

Looking forward, and following your posts! Suggestion: Do another of those lunch run videos but this time get yerself a batch of Daisy Duke honeys to shove in there, that would ring some hits on YouFacePage. Uhunh.

Yeah, thanks for the heads up on that. TiVo all setup to record the series, which looks like only two shows.

No doubt it wont be comin to this part of the world. But I look forward to 4th or 5th time re-runs of the BBC show Top Gear featuring a bunch of guys driving obscure European cars that on average, cost 3 or 4 times more than my house (and flathead ford)!

I recorded the show last night and watched it today. Pretty cool show. I almost fell off my chair when the owner of the '69 GTO Judge said he would sell that car for $250,000.00 and Corky offered $90,000.00. That's a lot of money for a car that originally sold for about $4,000.00. I owned a '65 and '70. Wish I still had them. I have the next show set to record.

I thought the show was poorly done.When do you go to a "barn find" and have your Ipad or some other electronic device with you...Its all about $$$$$....That Judge for 250k was out of the planet and Cokers offer of 90k was nuts ,in my opinion

Yes, that guy was emotionally attached to that car! my wife would have killed me for turning 90,000 down.

Just another hyped up BS (more money than brains) show.

I don't get why Corky would offer $90 grand for a car that isn't worth 1/2 that
in the unrestored condition it's in.


Here's a link to some Judges in Hemmings.

When I was watching that, I thought there were 2 guys that were out of touch with reality.
