It’s like my old boss. When everything went right, he took all the credit. Anything went wrong, employees were always threw under the bus and blamed. It was NEVER his fault.
AMEN brother ! My last body shop job was just like this ! My former boss was Bipolar ; up and down , all over the place . I am out , back in MY own shop.
Which car is 1.5m thats insane Americans got too much money or the very few have since we all know that 60% of Americans aint even got $500 savings to their name, Because the very few hoarding it all i guess.
If Mark is such a perfectionist, then why didn't he personally inspect this 1.5 million dollar car. Seems his glorious painter screwed up the car and is not as good as he lets on to be. Your fault Mark, you are the owner, you let it leave the shop with the imperfections.
I haven't watched this guy's show for years. For this reason he's a primadonna and annoying. His cars are generally beautiful, but it's not worth it watching his dumbass
To me, Mark is just a weird a-hole, no it all and his constant desire for attention. I understand numbers matching cars but, this man is the most anally attentive person I have seen.
I started watching this channel because I love to see the quality, care & love that goes into restoring muscle cars. Unfortunately there is far more drama than work being done. When it comes to work, we hear what needs to be done and for the most part we see the completed portion. People want to see what it took to correct a defect. This is most likely my last video. So sad, it could have been a stellar channel instead of the three stooges or keystone cops. Good luck.
It's a t.v. show. I do paint and body(boring stuff to watch)...if you want a tutorial there are plenty of channels here on youtube that do that. There has to be some entertainment for the people who aren't fully vested in just the mechanical aspect.
@@ojscustoms9251 I think part of the problem is some of us who restore/build cars in our free time don't do enough repetition to be fluent but sometimes watching stuff helps keep us on track. For me it motivates me to spend that extra time in the shop. I'm an assistant chief at a volunteer fire department on top of my 40 hr a week job, it's hard for me to find extra time but putting stuff on in the background helps keep me on track because you get to see that final product. Just my thoughts. Some drama is okay, but when you've got stuff going like the "sabotaged" motor jobs that are most likely from sandblasting clumps falling into the engine and 50 other problems that lead to it, or even running a motor for a long time while it's knocking is not generally good looking on your business. Anywho that's my thoughts, and I do like their work. I'm a Ford guy but love seeing all old cars being saved.
I got into watching Orange Country Choppers because of the family soap opera, or dope opera, but it became too predictable and repetitive, except for showing them riding around the countryside.
Yeah, I just did a quick scroll through the "precise seeking". What a nice feature heh. A lot of blah blah drama, about what I eventually figured is a $1.5 mil restoration. On a single damn car. People with more dollars than sense. I want a nice roof over my head. I want a loving family. I won't be watching this vid.
First time watching. Wow, your boss is really unlikeable. I feel bad for you guys having to work for him. Great job with videography and editing. My only suggestion would be to cut his screen time down to the absolute minimum. Get rid of the drama queen and focus on the skilled craftsmanship.
Scrolled the comments to see if anyone has made The Office connection. He's actually even closer to David Brent from the British version. On the show where they did the original resto he does a whole bit where I thought he was deliberately riffing on that character. He even looks at the camera the exact same way.
There is an old saying in the military, "never refuse a combat mission". I see a lot of people in the shop stepping back on this. How hard is it to QC a friggin car? My company builds multi-million dollar Cube Sats and air born LiDAR systems; QC is a part of EVERY stage of the project.....and it ain't that HARD!
Mark is a riot. Would I want to work with him or live next door to him ? No, but I would say the same of most people on reality TV. I don't know if you recall Boyd Coddington's show but man he came across as a total a-hole boss : almost everyone who knew him told a different story. What we didn't know is that he had serious health issues and the business wasn't doing well - not saying that Mark is dealing with any of that, but he clearly sees his overdose of personality as an asset.
I made it about 4 minutes- TV production with that guy’s voice, fancy cutting,editing- and had to click off. I’d rather watch an honest shade tree mechanic with a single camera and a good heart.
5 years to build this car? Over 50 paint and body issues? I remember that episode. Mark said he made no compromises at all on the car. He has to inspect these cars if he wants to be respectful to his customers
So she’s part of the family and business…. She should be interested in the success of the family business and should not have to be asked to be a part of the success! She should WANT IT! Protect your family business young lady!
Need to hire an older experienced paint and body man who has laid his tools down and let his only job be pre-delivery inspection. Will make everyone better at their job and will save money and embarrassing moments. Cheaper to fix at the shop than chase comebacks.
maybe so, however, If I am spending 1.5 Million it certainly would NOT be to this nutbag. There are far better cars made even new ones that are worth far more in the long haul.
@14:11after stating that his employees will still have jobs if his show were cancelled, Mark alleges that the 'upstairs people'; meaning everyone involved with producing the show, (eg, camera operators, directors, editors and so forth), will be out of a job. No Mark, their jobs are NOT solely dependent upon this particular TV show.
The ego's in this program are a show stopper. These guys think they are God's gift to automobile restoration. Mark is a sterling example of "how not" to run a business. Better yet, he is a perfect example of how to ruin a business. It's pretty bad when your program has had almost 91K views and only 877 thumbs up.
QC should have been done before it left the shop. That's a no brainer. But it's always someone fault. He is more worried about how his hair looks. Not someone you want to work for.
I've been trying to put my finger on it and it finally popped in my head around the 25 minutes. Mark gives off Steve Carell vibes "Well they are like 3 hours ahead of time so that's like 6 hours". LOL almost rolled out of my chair.
For quality control: When a car is deemed almost ready to be returned to its owner, it should be 'all hands on deck' for quality control. Every set of eyes available combing every inch of the car three times (taking notes without fear of retribution) before it's allowed out the door. If you were a 'flunky' 'shade tree' body shop charging 25 - 30 grand for a complete ‘restoration’ it, of course, would be a different ballgame.
As a car collector and a mechanic. I totally respect Mark's point. He puts his name on the car the Quality needs to be top notch. It's hard to watch every employee all the time. Marks passion is the classic cars just like mine.
That's just an excuse! If Mark's name is "on the car"... then HE, should take the time, himself... to make sure it's "right" Before it ever leaves the shop..... instead of blaming everyone else, which he is really good at. When everything goes well... it's all about Him... when things don't, he's very quick to throw everyone else "under the bus".... it is NEVER his fault.
Our paint supervisor while gifted is an obvious " not my problem " guy. 100k-200k a car average and the guy makes 250k a year. You bet your ass its your fault cupcake. Pride and fortitude bro. Learn it and live it.
Almost every reality show on TV is full of drama which if asked to the general public watching is not needed. We, I don't care for the additional dialog on these shows, I have enough self made drama in my life and don't need to add to it with more.
IF you're supposed to be the "Head" of the paint shop, then you're already obligated to be the QC man. In fact, I'd argue that every working human is their biggest QC person. Maybe it's time for a new painter who cares about what they do. At the same time, the workers rely on the boss to be a boss. The boss either has expectations or doesn't. Everyone appreciates quality when cost isn't the issue.
I worked at a body shop where the detailer got fired for missing overspray on the inner fender of a Mitsubishi Galant as it left to the customer … but you guys let a 1.5 million dollar restoration leave without checking it? 😂😂 I should track him down and tell him to try to get a job with you guys.
1.5 million for a 1970 convertible R/T Coronet? WTAF?? Looking online the highest priced one that has ever sold was 260k... Won't be subbing here thanks.
I don't know what anybody else feels about this series, but it sure seems to me to be a spin on "THE OFFICE"! Just watch Mark's snarky remarks and his humor. It seems like he's trying to be Stave Carroll and the other players are just mimicking the office staff. Is it just me or am I right about this? I'm just waiting for Mark to say, "THAT"S WHAT SHE SAID"!
I love the show but watching those guys try and align the door and fender on the 69 Daytona without using masking tape or a towel etc to protect the paint in case of a mistake about made me cringe.I would never take that chance!
Haven't watched his channel in a while and now I remember why. The office drama is just a lot of bs. Maybe the network or producer likes it bit I don't so so long GYC.
Gee, when i sold Chrysler products new, they'd come back daily for sub standard quality and they were overpriced then. What a fool for paying 1.5 mill for the same result
The painter, or shop supervisor needs to QC work....there is lots of time between painting cars where you can see vehicles....The final guy doing the finishing should be able to review the work done...
Is this Drama real? Seems that there's a lot of smart-ass bullying that's just not necessary. I don't understand why you wouldn't want some kind of team work rather than clever snarky remarks.
I can’t be the only one that thinks this show would be much better with out all the production effort. It’s too much like tv and not enough raw/natural which is a big part of people loving RUclipsrs. Uncle Tony’s mopar page being larger is a great example.
According to Google this car cost $209K - $300K to get restored, and if someone is plopping down over a quarter-million bucks then I think they have plenty right to be picky, especially if you can see all the mistakes without even being picky. That's a massive amount of change for one car.
I worked in aviation for over twenty years. QC should always be its own dedicated department and not an afterthought. In aviation it's required by law.
I've did QC since 1989 and Certified by ASQC as a Quality Inspector and I've been threatened, argued with General Managers & Operations people before. One General Manager assigned me to a different department because I wound NOT sign off on some parts made with a different grade of Stainless Steel that went into Helicopter engines (It probably would have been OK but it was the very ideal and legal aspects of it that I was not going to flex for and they would have always expected me to do it all the time setting a precedent sort of).
@@Corsairforu Material certs tell the story.. They can be fudged but thats where "scruples come in to it..And legal.. A sign off sig is a legal device, you own it.. Yes many sharp , cuss words were said..Glad i'm out of there..
Why would a Respected business man be worried about being on a T.V. show. This is why you have QC issues more worried about being on T.V. than building perfect cars.
I dont see the problem on the negative comments. A high dollar car came back, he owned the faults and admitted he needed help with qc. Yall realize this show is for entertainment right?!?!
whoever does their part on the car i.e. paint, metal repair , upholstery, whatever. whoever does what should be responsible for their part,BUT the buck stops with the boss so they should be overall responsible for quality!!!!! MARK
Hey Mark. Don't change a thing! I love your shows when they are on here in Australia. Sometimes they are on 2am in the morning and I will set my alarm to watch them. By the way, keep up the facial expressions and Rocky impersonations, they put me in stitches every time. Anyone that doesn't get your sense of humour probably drives a Ford or Chev so who cares anyways lol. Mate, I'd truly love to meet you one day! Take care
Hey, Mark. Just wanted to say that I absolutely love your Business and RUclips Channel. I wanted to say that I think you missed a little trick at the end with Cristine's headlight. After you left the building and camera zooms into lights and radio, you should have had the radio come on and start playing one of the iconic tunes from the movie. I know, everything is good in hindsight, right, well, some of the time. That would have been awesome, imho. Best Wishes.🐲
I'm a crew chief for an electro mechanic refurbishing company, and I have more than 50 people, co-worker under me. If something goes wrong, IT'S MY FAULT FIRST. We rebuild industrial machines,from everywhere in the world, often 50 years old or more, and it requires me to be able to read technical manuals in at least 7 languages, and that are worth 30 times this car and require another level of precision, complexity, and details way above any car restoration would need. I WOULD NEVER blame someone under me because I DIDN'T BOTHER to check and verify his work, giving him no chance to correct his mistake beforehand. I have 2 jobs, doing great quality work and the most important, KEEPING PEOPLE UNDER ME HAPPY. Happy people do a better job. If you don't control yourself and act like an entitled child, you will lose any respect from the people you work with. I can't imagine acting like this. I have too much respect for my fellow co-worker. 1.5 million for any type of machine is very small, and it certainly doesn't worth losing the respect of my team.
I'm really happy I came across this channel, I had a 67 fastback barracuda - 318 & a 73 Charger SE - 440mag (neither cars were original engine, tranny, rear end 😏) and I grew up with my cousins cars - 42 dodge Coupe, Challengers, Chargers, Cudas, Coronet RT, Charger RT, Belvedere, Comet, Roadrunners, a Superbird, Sedans, Bel-Airs, Fairlane, Darts, Swinger, and a Convertible Caddy. Took it for granted growing up, but now I realize how cool it was growing up with all those cars around nonstop.
@@billbonu1639 - Ya, I commented on this over a year ago and you are correct there about the drama thing, I have to watch an episode or two and speed forward the Days of Our Lives production crap so I just watch the actual work stuff & then take breaks for a week or two. Lol
I used to work for PRS Guitars. Paul would inspect and sign every Private Stock Guitar(super high end) before it left the Factory. Mark is the definition of a Dork that thinks he is a 10. 🤣 And I love how his daughter tries to play pass the Buck. Guaranteed the Passenger Princess doesn't work hard and gets a nice paycheck.
Understood that some "drama" is needed to keep my wife on the sofa.... but that 1.5 million dollar hemi, didn't leave there with those "road dings" a year ago! That was painful.
Making the cars better than they were when they rolled off the assembly line. Some people expect these mass produced things intended for the common working man to have absolute perfection where there never was any. Been there, experienced this. Money don't buy perfection in a imperfect world. Impossible. Funny how the boss man there is trying to pass off QC duties on to people who are already overloaded with their primary job duties and are not really qualified to do that job. They all say they don't want it. They know they don't have that skill..nor do they want to be the fall guy if a " problem" is missed...Don't force it on them. It is not a " golden opportunity"..that's just passing the buck. QC needs to be the bossman's job. Even he don't want that responsibility. QC is done by someone who is nonbiased with a critical eye. A car show judge basically in this case. You can't ask a paint and body man to critique his own work..much less a parts department employee..She never wanted it .she reluctantly took it cause she folded under pressure to keep from being further pestered about it and to shut the boss up. Now the heat is on her if a problem comes up. Hire someone for that job. None of his employees have the required qualifications or skill set. Even the factory assembly lines had a QC guy at the end of the line to determine these things if it was allowed to roll out the door or be sent back in to address the issues. More than likely what happened with that coronet , the owner took it to a car show expecting to win and didn't , probably confronted the judges and was pointed out all these little " problem" areas that took points off the judging sheet. That's how tight judging cars can get at some shows..boils down to the littlest things...That's why it probably came back to the shop. Small cosmetic imperfections "discovered" after the fact. Ultimately , QC falls on the bossman if the work quality meets up to the requirements he asks of his employees . And also on the owner/ customer themselves if the work meets up to what they paid to have done..all determined at the time of pickup/ delivery of the finished job. That's where QC is decided on.
I worked for a farmer. We would build anything he needed or fix anything. He would stand with a smile on his face when it was finished and then criticize you. Never a nice word spoked. I got mad and was gonna quit and he pulled a pocket knife on me and told me I wasn't leaving. We were real busy storing grain and I showed him he was wrong. Called next morning wanting to know where I was. Dude I quit yesterday..
Claiming to be one of the top restoration shops in the country or possibly the world and they dont have someone that inspects every detail of the car before it get sent to the customer?🤦😂
It's amazing to me how most of the people in the comments section don't understand Mark's humor. He's joking around 90% of the time, and the shop guys know this. I think he's funny as heck....
I think it would be hilarious if they disassemble the '58 Plymouth fury,they all go home, show up the next day and the car is all back together and running in the shop,just sitting there revving up the engine, just like in the. Movie,😂
Mark should stop calling them Barracudas. In 1970 they became 'Cudas. They went from A- body to E-body. The styling was so much improved and bigger engines too.
It’s like my old boss. When everything went right, he took all the credit. Anything went wrong, employees were always threw under the bus and blamed. It was NEVER his fault.
When you own a company, you can do the same. It's the perks of being head honcho.
Straight up 🫣😎🤷♂️
AMEN brother ! My last body shop job was just like this ! My former boss was Bipolar ; up and down , all over the place . I am out , back in MY own shop.
Micromanaging the job and outcome and then losing his rag when it all goes tits up due to his own poor management - pathetic !
@@russellwilliams3209the point is to not do the same.
mark if you dont inspect what your staff do ...... you are doomed to fail and have no one to blame but yourself
For $1.5M everyone including the mailman should have done QC on that car before shipping it out!
But the show needs to capture the audience attention, and collect ratings.
Mailman & $1.5m vehicle doesn't go hand in hand my friend.
The Shtick is probably a request from production.
Which car is 1.5m thats insane Americans got too much money or the very few have since we all know that 60% of Americans aint even got $500 savings to their name, Because the very few hoarding it all i guess.
I highly doubt that car is even worth 1.5m
whoever paid 1.5 million for that should have their head examined
That's the Value, not the cost. open dem ears!
its neither@@chrisfrank8413
I think that's the "market value" of the car... not, what he paid to have it all re-done.... though, I'd like to know what That came to. : )
Pretty sure it was 1 of 2 and the only one alive. A very rare car.
No car is worth more than what it cost When brand new, I don't care how much money you throw at it, it's still a hunk of shit😂
If Mark is such a perfectionist, then why didn't he personally inspect this 1.5 million dollar car. Seems his glorious painter screwed up the car and is not as good as he lets on to be. Your fault Mark, you are the owner, you let it leave the shop with the imperfections.
Doesn't sound like the world's best Mopar shop to me!
just like the car he first rolled out and let it the other car. you could see the crease line he made hitting into the other car.
It wasn't the painter fault, Mark fired Darren who was there QC person and didn't hire anyone for Darren to train. This car is one of a kind.
I haven't watched this guy's show for years. For this reason he's a primadonna and annoying. His cars are generally beautiful, but it's not worth it watching his dumbass

Yep same.
Yep can't do anything right.
yep
He was bullied by girls when he was a kid.
Worked. Some people like quality work. I worked at a place with 99.67% quality control. One mistake in 400 allowed.
Too much drama and plenty of excuses. A business cannot function with this amount of distraction.
You can do better?
Also refusing to reinvest into the businesses and only uses the production money to do it.
That’s why I stopped watching the discovery programs. 90% car content 10% drama. Max.

Thats pretty much every episode
I would like to see what was wrong and the fix for the car that came back

The problem with the show is Mark's idea of comedy, he is annoying and talks way to much.

QC should have been done before it left the shop. That's a no brainer. But it's always someone fault. He is more worried about how his hair looks. Not someone you want to work for.
Hadnt watched an episode in awhile, started watching this and suddenly remembered why.
CAR GUYS DONT LIKE DRAMA.
I've been trying to put my finger on it and it finally popped in my head around the 25 minutes. Mark gives off Steve Carell vibes "Well they are like 3 hours ahead of time so that's like 6 hours". LOL almost rolled out of my chair.
I couldn’t agree more on that one I knew I couldn’t be the only one who got that vibe 🤣 First time seeing channel too
100%, everytime I think "This is just Michael Scott with cars instead of paper" 😭😭
The Bob Odenkirk manager episode
I couldn't have a conversation with him, let alone work for him.
Watched the whole video and still waiting to see him “Snap”.

Maybe it's time for a new painter who cares about what they do. At the same time, the workers rely on the boss to be a boss. The boss either has expectations or doesn't. Everyone appreciates quality when cost isn't the issue.
Way less of Mark, more history about the car’s, more about working on the cars,way less drama !!!
Really awesome 😊, I'm happy that I have a new show to watch.😊
barn metal for the road is fine but not for a museum piece
I worked at a body shop where the detailer got fired for missing overspray on the inner fender of a Mitsubishi Galant as it left to the customer … but you guys let a 1.5 million dollar restoration leave without checking it? 😂😂 I should track him down and tell him to try to get a job with you guys.
AN ABRASIVE PERSONALITY, COMES TO MIND.
I don't think I've ever seen somebody act so fake
1.5 million for a 1970 convertible R/T Coronet? WTAF?? Looking online the highest priced one that has ever sold was 260k... Won't be subbing here thanks.
Who pays 1.5 million for a car?
Wow. I love the cars, workmanship, and Mark's mopar knowledge, but the writing, storyline, acting, and continued failed attempts at comedy are brutal!
I don't know what anybody else feels about this series, but it sure seems to me to be a spin on "THE OFFICE"! Just watch Mark's snarky remarks and his humor. It seems like he's trying to be Stave Carroll and the other players are just mimicking the office staff. Is it just me or am I right about this? I'm just waiting for Mark to say, "THAT"S WHAT SHE SAID"!
That's exactly what this show appears to be. It's not bad, but not great.
I remember several years ago there was an episode where they were saying that's what she said
According to the Stephen king novel, Christine was a four door
I love the end when the light flickers. You can't stop the spirit of a '58 Plymouth Fury... not Christine. Watch out, Mark. LOL
I love the show but watching those guys try and align the door and fender on the 69 Daytona without using masking tape or a towel etc to protect the paint in case of a mistake about made me cringe.I would never take that chance!
Haven't watched his channel in a while and now I remember why. The office drama is just a lot of bs. Maybe the network or producer likes it bit I don't so so long GYC.
He was the one let it go out the door, so open your eyes, or is it just about ratings??
Gee, when i sold Chrysler products new, they'd come back daily for sub standard quality and they were overpriced then. What a fool for paying 1.5 mill for the same result
The painter, or shop supervisor needs to QC work....there is lots of time between painting cars where you can see vehicles....The final guy doing the finishing should be able to review the work done...
Working with family always comes back to bite you.
Michael Scott. This is the office of car shows.
Is this Drama real? Seems that there's a lot of smart-ass bullying that's just not necessary. I don't understand why you wouldn't want some kind of team work rather than clever snarky remarks.
I can’t be the only one that thinks this show would be much better with out all the production effort. It’s too much like tv and not enough raw/natural which is a big part of people loving RUclipsrs. Uncle Tony’s mopar page being larger is a great example.
According to Google this car cost $209K - $300K to get restored, and if someone is plopping down over a quarter-million bucks then I think they have plenty right to be picky, especially if you can see all the mistakes without even being picky. That's a massive amount of change for one car.
This guy would be awful to work for.
I worked in aviation for over twenty years. QC should always be its own dedicated department and not an afterthought. In aviation it's required by law.
In the places I've worked, they don't even talk or take their lunch with us. They won't allow friendship with QC and other employees.
YES , Machinist 30yrs and QC for incoming , outgoing and in process..Product could not move w/out QC sign off..
I've did QC since 1989 and Certified by ASQC as a Quality Inspector and I've been threatened, argued with General Managers & Operations people before. One General Manager assigned me to a different department because I wound NOT sign off on some parts made with a different grade of Stainless Steel that went into Helicopter engines (It probably would have been OK but it was the very ideal and legal aspects of it that I was not going to flex for and they would have always expected me to do it all the time setting a precedent sort of).
@@Corsairforu Material certs tell the story.. They can be fudged but thats where "scruples come in to it..And legal.. A sign off sig is a legal device, you own it.. Yes many sharp , cuss words were said..Glad i'm out of there..
Required by law, except if you're Boeing.
I won't watch again. More drama than getting stuff done.
First time checking out the show..and the last! Couldn't pay me to watch this owner..feel bad for everyone that has to deal with his B.S.
It creates some drama.
I'll watch just for Allysa...
You sir definitely haven't watched the show and I think you are missing out. It is highly educational.
He does it for comedy...goofy sense of humor
It’s better then American Hot Rod
Why would a Respected business man be worried about being on a T.V. show. This is why you have QC issues more worried about being on T.V. than building perfect cars.
someone please tell me this is all acting
I dont see the problem on the negative comments. A high dollar car came back, he owned the faults and admitted he needed help with qc. Yall realize this show is for entertainment right?!?!
whoever does their part on the car i.e. paint, metal repair , upholstery, whatever. whoever does what should be responsible for their part,BUT the buck stops with the boss so they should be overall responsible for quality!!!!! MARK
Hey Mark. Don't change a thing! I love your shows when they are on here in Australia. Sometimes they are on 2am in the morning and I will set my alarm to watch them. By the way, keep up the facial expressions and Rocky impersonations, they put me in stitches every time. Anyone that doesn't get your sense of humour probably drives a Ford or Chev so who cares anyways lol. Mate, I'd truly love to meet you one day! Take care
Melb Australia..love the show to😅
Hey, Mark. Just wanted to say that I absolutely love your Business and RUclips Channel. I wanted to say that I think you missed a little trick at the end with Cristine's headlight. After you left the building and camera zooms into lights and radio, you should have had the radio come on and start playing one of the iconic tunes from the movie. I know, everything is good in hindsight, right, well, some of the time. That would have been awesome, imho. Best Wishes.🐲
I'm a crew chief for an electro mechanic refurbishing company, and I have more than 50 people, co-worker under me. If something goes wrong, IT'S MY FAULT FIRST. We rebuild industrial machines,from everywhere in the world, often 50 years old or more, and it requires me to be able to read technical manuals in at least 7 languages, and that are worth 30 times this car and require another level of precision, complexity, and details way above any car restoration would need. I WOULD NEVER blame someone under me because I DIDN'T BOTHER to check and verify his work, giving him no chance to correct his mistake beforehand. I have 2 jobs, doing great quality work and the most important, KEEPING PEOPLE UNDER ME HAPPY. Happy people do a better job. If you don't control yourself and act like an entitled child, you will lose any respect from the people you work with. I can't imagine acting like this. I have too much respect for my fellow co-worker. 1.5 million for any type of machine is very small, and it certainly doesn't worth losing the respect of my team.
I'm really happy I came across this channel, I had a 67 fastback barracuda - 318 & a 73 Charger SE - 440mag (neither cars were original engine, tranny, rear end 😏) and I grew up with my cousins cars - 42 dodge Coupe, Challengers, Chargers, Cudas, Coronet RT, Charger RT, Belvedere, Comet, Roadrunners, a Superbird, Sedans, Bel-Airs, Fairlane, Darts, Swinger, and a Convertible Caddy. Took it for granted growing up, but now I realize how cool it was growing up with all those cars around nonstop.
@@billbonu1639 - Ya, I commented on this over a year ago and you are correct there about the drama thing, I have to watch an episode or two and speed forward the Days of Our Lives production crap so I just watch the actual work stuff & then take breaks for a week or two. Lol
More cool cars being built and waaaaaay less talk
I love your show and glad your back MOPAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please don't do anymore of those STUPID CARTOONS!! THERE NOT FUNNY!! Just rediculus
I used to work for PRS Guitars. Paul would inspect and sign every Private Stock Guitar(super high end) before it left the Factory. Mark is the definition of a Dork that thinks he is a 10. 🤣 And I love how his daughter tries to play pass the Buck. Guaranteed the Passenger Princess doesn't work hard and gets a nice paycheck.
Understood that some "drama" is needed to keep my wife on the sofa.... but that 1.5 million dollar hemi, didn't leave there with those "road dings" a year ago! That was painful.
Lmao a bird craps on the hood of the car during transition at 24:55
Making the cars better than they were when they rolled off the assembly line. Some people expect these mass produced things intended for the common working man to have absolute perfection where there never was any.
Been there, experienced this.
Money don't buy perfection in a imperfect world. Impossible.
Funny how the boss man there is trying to pass off QC duties on to people who are already overloaded with their primary job duties and are not really qualified to do that job. They all say they don't want it. They know they don't have that skill..nor do they want to be the fall guy if a " problem" is missed...Don't force it on them. It is not a " golden opportunity"..that's just passing the buck.
QC needs to be the bossman's job. Even he don't want that responsibility.
QC is done by someone who is nonbiased with a critical eye. A car show judge basically in this case.
You can't ask a paint and body man to critique his own work..much less a parts department employee..She never wanted it .she reluctantly took it cause she folded under pressure to keep from being further pestered about it and to shut the boss up. Now the heat is on her if a problem comes up.
Hire someone for that job. None of his employees have the required qualifications or skill set.
Even the factory assembly lines had a QC guy at the end of the line to determine these things if it was allowed to roll out the door or be sent back in to address the issues.
More than likely what happened with that coronet , the owner took it to a car show expecting to win and didn't , probably confronted the judges and was pointed out all these little " problem" areas that took points off the judging sheet. That's how tight judging cars can get at some shows..boils down to the littlest things...That's why it probably came back to the shop. Small cosmetic imperfections "discovered" after the fact.
Ultimately , QC falls on the bossman if the work quality meets up to the requirements he asks of his employees . And also on the owner/ customer themselves if the work meets up to what they paid to have done..all determined at the time of pickup/ delivery of the finished job.
That's where QC is decided on.
You didn't SHOW us why it came back. Just a lot of other BS. I wasted 43 minutes of my life.
I worked for a farmer. We would build anything he needed or fix anything. He would stand with a smile on his face when it was finished and then criticize you. Never a nice word spoked. I got mad and was gonna quit and he pulled a pocket knife on me and told me I wasn't leaving. We were real busy storing grain and I showed him he was wrong. Called next morning wanting to know where I was. Dude I quit yesterday..
lol what did expect gonna happen after he pulled out a pocket knife ?
Claiming to be one of the top restoration shops in the country or possibly the world and they dont have someone that inspects every detail of the car before it get sent to the customer?🤦😂
It's amazing to me how most of the people in the comments section don't understand Mark's humor. He's joking around 90% of the time, and the shop guys know this. I think he's funny as heck....
yup he is a real hoot
He's a freakin riot!
Nope he’s not funny
True
Every joke is 50% truth.
can you imagine dropping a full rock on a car and not having the owner of the shop look it over ?! Damn.
I’ve watched 2 minutes of this and, it’s obvious, tv has gotten to the owners head.
I think it would be hilarious if they disassemble the '58 Plymouth fury,they all go home, show up the next day and the car is all back together and running in the shop,just sitting there revving up the engine, just like in the. Movie,😂
pretty sure he had a small heart attack after climbing the stairs.
Omggggg ! Bruce Willis ! LoL !
He looks more like Danny Devito so I could seriously see him playing the Penguin in the stinky Batman movies
HaHa 😂😂
😇
Mark should stop calling them Barracudas. In 1970 they became 'Cudas. They went from A- body to E-body. The styling was so much improved and bigger engines too.
I'm a QC guy. QC 101 - never time to do it right. But always time to put it right...
Waiting for Will to reach his breaking point and quit.. That clown show Mark puts on gets old.
Fake. Fake
I love this show bringing back the OGs most beautiful cars I've ever seen not to mention OE/OEM 😩 Gorgeous cars 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
