CAR MASTERS RUST TO RICHES SEASON 3 EPISODE 1 FULL
But they did a full chassis swap, put in a new or freshly rebuilt Chevy 454, then added the supercharger and all the engine bling, new glass, new seats, new rims and tires, and all the missing trim. They also claimed that the bus was worth $15K as they received it and claimed to have put in only $5K for a total cost of $20K. That means the edges are sharp and shouldn't be handled without gloves, regardless of if the panel is fiberglass or metal (but seriously, they wouldn't take the time to make that stuff out of metal when the quality is so bad). And that motorcycle, like everything else they do, doesn't have rolled edges on any of their custom body panels. You can't even check the oil on that car, much less change the oil or do any other engine work, without removing the entire body. And since they were trying to make this front-engine car look remotely like the sketches they showed, if you squint hard enough, they set the windshield base at the front of the engine block. Nope, even rebodied Corvettes with racing history don't bring that much. Regardless, they rebodied a 1993 Corvette and tried to compare it to a Bugatti and claimed it was worth $250K. Then they decided the perfect starting point for that was a 1993 front-engine Corvette? What they built had nothing to do with the sketches that this guy had allegedly been working on for 20 years. They ripped off the Peugeot 4002 (which wasn't even a concept car) in the sketches, which is definitely a mid-engine, cab-forward car.
Then there's the alleged concept car that isn't a concept car. And that was allegedly done for a photographer with an eye for detail? And they supposedly got paid $60K for that work? Not a chance. Beyond that, the grill, the exposed rivets, the exhaust, the leather straps, and pretty much everything else they did to the car was all wrong aside from stretching the wheelbase. The body line isn't continued onto the engine covers, they used late 30s / early 40s headlights in a car meant to represent an early 1930s car, and the headlights neither point forward nor sit flush in the fenders. The windshield is at the wrong angle which leaves a half inch gap between the frame and the body in the corners. The skirts don't meet up with the fenders at the bottom, front or back. It creates a discontinuous curve with a hump at the fender to running board transition. They cut up two sets of generic 1932 Ford fenders and slapped them back together in roughly a decent shape and fiberglassed over the rivets. Some of these cars aren't even amateur quality builds (comparing them to multiple scratch-built cars I've seen from people who had zero prior experience).Ĭase in point, the alleged Delahaye replica where the only thing that looked remotely like a Delahaye was the paint color. If they took the money they claimed they were getting for the cars as shown on the show, they would have been sued out of existence long ago. I like the premise, and it's less annoying than most "reality" shows, but this show is faker than a three dollar bill.
