V8TV Helps Cure Car Show Withdrawal

By Sean O'Hara

Blowing through channels looking for some signs of intelligent automotive life I ran across a show called V8TV on the Men’s Outdoor & Recreation channel. I’d never have expected to find badass muscle car restoration there, but that’s what V8TV serves up.

The show seems to focus completely on old 60’s and 70’s Detroit iron and ways to rod it out. The episode I caught was on a ‘70 Trans Am that received tubs and a major suspension overhaul — all without crazy bosses or stupid design mods that don’t make sense. How refreshing!

If you get a chance, it’s worth a watch. Check their site for times and details.
