Garage Dreams on Velocity................

Maybe I'm late to this show but it is entirely and uniquely different than any other 'car' show. Please check it out out, there is content for everyone including art and music. Bravo Velocity !!

Have been watching it. Interesting. Need to be ready for a program with a different pace & format.

I think this is it- focusing on the small but innovative 1 man shops- shot like a documentary rather than a made up docu- drama......

I wouldn't mind seeing some actual wrenching but it's not that kind of show. On the other hand it's refreshing to see a car show without a script or someone stressing about a deadline.

Lots of "little guy" builds.

I just watched 2-3 episodes and really like it. I would like to see more mechanical wonderfulness, and less music/artful vidoegraphy, but it is refreshing seeing the slow pace of actual life, and thoughtful craftsmanship.

Just caught a few more episodes. Really fantastic! Everything from Datsun 510 to a gull wing Merc to Bonneville slat flats. Something truly unique, something for everyone.


Now I order everyone here to seek it out and watch..........................

I like the filming of this show, but for me, it always comes down to the car itself, which is hard to tell what they will be featuring, unless I'm not looking at the right place. I like the thought of the car shows evolving to be better. I sort of stopped watching anything since last year anymore.
