Just watched Chevelle Reborn. Shocking gaps and wrinkles on dash upholstery.....unbelievable.

Not so good

A less douchey version of rods n wheels.
MiloSuperSpesh14 June 2017
Warning: Spoilers
But not by much...
'Cast' The boss is bland has no charisma and just sounds bored all of the time, he tries to be interested and cool but it's goes nowhere.
'The main crew' Usual collection like other shows they're equally bland and try too hard to be cool.
Usual faked drama.
The cars look great and go fast n loud ! (yes i said that).
BUT there're a few hints that they cut corners in builds, in episode 2 the car is repainted blue but when it's being assembled after paint the doors are clearly still red on the inside. While the inside door is covered by a panel/inlay, it suggests they're cheap and cut costs where ever they can... On the same build they made up some tacky ugly and frankly stupid aluminum milled circle thing instead of the rear light bar and on the front bumper..Didn't fit the car at all..
The 'customers' are the usual American stereotypes douche bags/type a/meat head or young hot chick with no clue doing it for daddy...
They never mention how much it all costs but expect it done in a short time frame.

Grille and emblem says different year.
nplowden5 July 2018
I really enjoy the the show. My issue is episode 7 that featured a 1955 Ford pickup that was described in the episode as 1953. I learned to drive on 53 Ford F100 flat head V8 with three on the tree. Each year the grille and emblems changed. 53 was the last year for flat head.
No tattooed losers - a breath of fresh air.

What a breath of fresh air this show is. A likeable, decent, knowledgeable boss without a massive ego, none of the usual fake deadlines and fake dramas that usually beset these shows and, above all, no dated looking tattooed douches amongst the mechanics.

Watch first 3 episodes back-to-back. Enjoyable show. Hope Velocity TV keeps it!

New reality shows with ensemble casts take some to find their "groove". I recorded and watched the first 3 episodes back-to-back. By the end of the third episode I can say I really like it. By far the biggest pro is their eclectic selection of cars including a 911, CTS-V and Triumph TR-3. I enjoyed the variety. Additionally, I dislike drama in the form of arrogance and belittling by casts (ex. Graveyard Cars). This cast enjoys some good-natured smack talk, but it's obvious they get along and respect each other (ex. Bitchin' Rides). I recommend real car fans give this show a chance. I have added it to a short list of shows on my DVR. If anyone from Velocity TV reads this, I suggest you give the show a full season to allow time to build a strong, loyal viewer following.
To the producer

Have seen a couple of these and yeah there's something really lackadaisical about the noah guy and the rest of the show that just seems all talk. Really the cars are kind of meh too, just saw the 57 chev and after the 19 minutes talking it up it's really ordinary, I've seen guys here build FAR better not only 57's but everything and anything.

60 Triumph TR-3 power boost -NOT
andersen-2618514 June 2017
I do enjoy all the automotive build programs . Just started watching Speed is New Black - and was a bit let down with the TR-# "build" ?? That Triumph can fly with the right real power . Back in early 70's I bought a 59 TR-3 for $200 with a junk engine . Had some Chevy small block parts laying about so installed a 283 SB , T-10 4 speed . Engine was basic with Duntov 30-30 cam and single 4 BBL . Used stock TR-3 rear end . made my own drive shaft . Cut back firewall , No room for headers so stock cast iron exhaust . Used 14 in Mustang wheels as needed wider rubber to get SOME traction . NOTHING could catch this thing . Real ticket getter . Sold for $1880 . Yes it too was BRG but painted it Yellow with Standard Brands automotive paint . Still have pictures . I don't believe in purchasing "KIT" stuff rather build it my self .
Keep up the good show as it will inspire others to build their own "dream machine" >>>Gary

Maybe more show less commercials

The show is not have bad. I believe it's the production that hurts this show the most. The characters and the projects that choose are ok. The show keeps showing scenery of St. Louis and with all the commercials and recapping after the commercials you end up with a 20 minute show in a one hour time slot.
Quintessential girl that's far too clean.
snitzell18 July 2022
Tuned into an episode for the first time. Too much talking and not enough working. I saw a Hyabusa engine in a Smart Car so why not stick one in the Mini-Cooper?? It's unsafe no matter what they do so why go for a 4 cylinder Honda??
