Lords of the Car Hoards Online

This could be the last chance for car guru Rick Dore and ex WWE wrestler Chuck Palumbo to rebuild the lives of the hoarders they work for, and to find the type of success that eluded them the last time out. Whether transforming a 1936 Ford Coupe for an almond farmer, or customizing a 1937 Zephr for a demanding millionaire, renovating cars for hoarders is a risky proposition.

There are many ways to skin a cat -- in this case, auto restoration and custom design. "Loud n' Fast" is funny and believable. "Rods 'n' Wheels" is hard to swallow -- I have trouble believing the owner's son knows so little about cars and car repair.

"Lords of the Car Hoards" presents Chuck Palumbo and Rick Dore as, well... psychologists trying to help people with hoarding problems. The hoarders are so unwilling to give up their property that Chuck and Rick are obliged to gently guide them along. (In one case, they fail.) It's nice to see people change their lives for the better. This adds a sweetness missing from the other shows.

I can't believe two of the three people who posted reviews actually think the people in this program are actors, and should be replaced with "better" performers! No wonder this country is so screwed up.

Just came across this show as i was channel surfing and while i love the premise of the show, in reality its just another car show where they fix up cars. Im not so sure where the wrestling dude fits into this but you can tell not much thought was put into production, not to mention the music drowning out speakers. Id watch again if its only car program on at the time but there are so many other to choose from that are put together much better. Oh and Joe the hat? They couldn't come up with a better name for his character? Maybe you should give all of yourselves a nickname. I gave it a 3 because of the cars and no other reason.

In the episode where you did the BMW and another car for that guy Seth, I was amazed to see where that was. We borrowed a cabin for a weekend in Arroyo Seco a year or so ago and when I was walking the dog I spotted all those cars. I really wanted that '55 Chevy wagon so I researched the property and finally tracked the guy down. After a week of trying he finally answered the phone but said nothing was for sale and was adamant about it so I kind of wrote it off. Imagine my surprise to see you guys walking in there and emptying the lot. Good job, he never would have done anything with all those cars so I'm glad to see you took care of business for him. I see the '55 was one of the cars he kept, though so I guess it had a special place in his heart.

I actually really like this show, I like what they are trying to do by getting people to give up their hoards of cars and create one bad ass ride. They have to somehow get people not to want two custom cars (has happened a couple time already) each of those times they break even or lose money. Gotta stick with the game plan of 1 custom car for the client or they are going to tank the company and there wont be a show to shoot.

I also think Rick and Chuck need to become better friends and really learn how to work together on everything, I'm not sure if the lack of communication stuff is scripted to make it more interesting (if it is cut it out cause it would be better with less problems and see some actual functional team work taking place). Just because it is a type of reality show, doesn't mean you need to fabricate problems, it's interesting enough without that.

I watch it every week and I hope it stays on and best of luck to you guys. Rick chill out on the custom stuff brotha, the people you are building the cars for aren't show car judges. Go all out when you get a huge budget not a little tiny one and last but not least don't take on crappy hoards that don't multiple money makers.

This is a great show but you need to get rid of Rick he is very arrogant even though he may be somewhat talented he is a pain in the ass. And Mr. Pulumbo is funny great for the show. Rick always comes off as better than everyone else there Palombo is the comedy and keeper for the show. Rick needs to go crawl back under the rock he came from. It would be awesome to see Palombo bodyslam Rick on one of his cars. When they did the 1940 Ford pickup truck Rick acted like he was too good to do a basic job if it isn't custom he can't do it what ever! Rick needs to go back to Maaco that would be a good career choice for him nobody wants to watch him on TV.

I just watched your show a few hours ago in my shop with several auto restoration friends. We thought it was pretty good. I liked the concept of finding a bunch of items then taking it all instead of just a few items. The Corvair 'chopped' look was great. The reason I gave you a low view rating was because your "back-ground" music was front-ground noise. Not only me, my friends said the same thing. Heavy 'metal' type of music tends to be more on the louder side and has a tendency to play on the eardrums differently. We could hardly hear what was said. Good luck with your show. Thank you...Bob, Jeff, Randy, Steve, Josh, & Eli the Dog.
