Last night's build was cool! Not sure RR would just jump in on a whole new building though...

I ffwd-ed quite a lot of tonight's show. I have zero interest in Richard's new music venue and I can't really imagine who would.

I wonder how much cash they'll be able to inject into the build by selling the oily bits from the old Challenger. I'd expect that a freshly rebuilt 340 Magnum, gearbox and heavy-duty suspension set-up would be worth a few bob.

I didn't go so far as to ff through it, but I agree I just don't see the point in watching RRR running in hands through his hair about another new venture - I wish the guy all the luck in the world with it, but Fast n Loud is a car programme - not the Richard Rawlings reality show.

I have to admit I'm starting to prefer Misfit Garage, it's a lot like the first series of FnL.

Think theres another bit on it in this series, he stuffed it into something and Kc's mending it.

I like the way he is always skint (so his good friend goes halves with him), then he rocks up with $200k of cars to sell and has 'just' bought most of them, when he couldn't afford the $40k build and needed a backer.

Interesting show, but my god there is some bks being spouted by him sometimes/all the time.

I don't mind that so much, he's not much of a 'saver' given cash he'll spend it on more cars or something else almost immediately, it's cash-flow he lacks sometimes, rather than money per-se.

Since I discovered FnL it has been my favourite car TV programme. It is quite clever what they have done with Misfit Garage - like earlier FnL. The third programme Demolition whatever is st though.

Yeah cash-flow is hard to get right when you are buying and selling, a mate of mine struggles like made but will have 5k of cars floating about, then the next week or two will be flush as he's shifted some.

Just watched the Challenger rest-mod episode via YouTube and it was pretty watchable. Certainly way better than that 'For the love of cars' dross on a Sunday night anyway.

West Coast Customs did similar with a Dodge Charger for a guy from CSI.

They took the body from a 68 Charger and put it on a Charger SRT8 chassis and drivetrain, with obviously a lot of work inbetween!

That was more of an outer skin transplant than a drivetrain transplant. Both interesting in their own right though. I'd love to have the money to do either smile

Good stuff, I'd hazzard a guess that WD finishes next week then.

Tonights WD is the last in the series as far as I know, next week likely to be a best of.

I love this show, not sure what season I am on, but it's my favourite car show by a mile.

Have I missed a series? When was this one on TV in the UK? I thought I had seen every episode of Fast N Loud, but my Sky has not been connected up for about 3 months due to house refurb - I have been keeping an eye out for a new series and I still have Sky Go available so hopefully I can catch up.
