Default Foxtel...

hey, what are some good car shows on foxtel? ive heard people talking about them over these forums but can never find them on the tele. only show ive seen was on discovery channel where they completely rebuild a old dodge from the ground up and put an injected big mofo hemi in it. it was so sweet but i cant even remember the name of that show :(

I don't really like American Hotrod, I think Boyd Coddington is a ИИИИ. American Chopper though, thats just funny.
