Looking for a TV show.

[Popinski]

I'm looking for a TV show in which I saw a trailer for a year ago. It's about people who go through scrap yards and find junk cars and motorcycles and restore them into brand-new looking. I think they restored other things too.

The Eljefino Show, I believe.

Sanford and Son...

They used to have "junkyard wars" on TLC but that's probably not what you're thinking about. Also a bit contrived when they "find" just the part they need.

I don't think American Pickers restores anything; they just re-sell to some sucker.

that show is lame, the people on it have bad teeth and they're always making lousy purchases. i never saw them restore anything. all they did was buy old signs.

It's a pretty cool show. I would love to have a garage full of antique automotive signs.

Right. American Pickers.
They don't have to make great deals.
Remember, the SHOW is where the money is at.
