Synopsis

There's undiscovered treasure in the bayous of Louisiana and Charles Handler knows how to find it. From a 1957 Chevy Bel Air convertible to a 1967 Shelby Mustang GT, Handler and his team find long-forgotten piles of junk into dazzling custom cars. He searches all over Louisiana for one-of-a-kind classics, invests his own money to fix them up, and then sells them at auction. These treasures can sell for big money so there's a huge profit to be made, if everything goes according to plan. Each episode, based in New Orleans, will feature amazing vehicle restorations and high stakes auctions where everything's on the line.

Evengyny Thanks for the memories!
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Matho The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.
Saintz In a world full of contrived shows about classic cars this is by far the worst.The show is like another version of "Ground hog Day". Every episode shows made up drama between the partners, scripted sales between the buyer and seller, impossible to find parts that magically turn up, usually supposedly hidden under hood or a door on the ground in some friend's junk yard.Worst of all, some fake auction in a studio somewhere. (See cast and crew list, the bidders are actors, a few of them are even listed here. The rest are friends or family of the crew by the looks on their faces). There is always some bogus deadline to get the car of the week to said auction. Even this part of a weak script is similar every episode "We only have 7 days to get this car ready for the auction!" To sum up, an insult to people's intelligence.
mikeamariano Before tonight show, I would have given these guys a 10, they have a lot going on over the other car show of the same.However... I lost a lot of faith when they took a rare Bandit Trans AM, one of 11 + hundred according to the auction house, and went through a lot of parts and labor to make it Not an original factory T/A by putting in a T-10 four speed. The Bandit car from the movie was an automatic, except in some of the far away shots, A fiberglass body on a VW chassis and drive train were used, just as in Night Rider.They should have put the time, money and effort, took that money and rebuilt the motor in the Mustang with the 427 inch motor.
