Short summary

Jeff Allen and Perry Barndt are gamblers...their game, classic and exotic cars. They travel the country looking to buy and sell cars. Whether it's a rare Shelby Mustang or a one-of-a-kind Bugatti, the key is buy low and sell high, something that doesn't always happen. Selling cars is a dangerous business...but perhaps there's no greater danger than negotiating with your own dad. Tom Souter, Jeff's dad, runs his own classic car dealership right around the corner from Jeff's shop in Lubbock, Texas. They are not just regular trading partners; they are trading partners hell-bent on one-upmanship. Tom says doing a deal with his son is like being locked in a closet with a porcupine, "it's gonna hurt but you know it won't kill you."

    No its not as flashy as the $100,000-$1,000,000 cars on Chasing Classic Cars, or need 5 guys to fix up a car to flip like in Fast n' Loud, just a simple show to display how anyone can flip a car. No matter what the car. Fun show to watch. I'm not sure why some are giving it such bad reviews. And mention that they are not pretty on a review is just cruel. So what that they are just typical people, not the Hollywood, greased back hair do of other shows. I like the fact they buy simple cars from one place, spend a little money getting it running and sell it at an auction and make a simple $1,000. Don't listen to the other reviewers, give it a try. I'm sure the second season will be better then the first.

    I am hooked! Love the show because its real people buying and selling real cars with real budgets. The characters are fun to watch and the cars are always cool. I like that Jeff tries to get a little crazy with projects and money and Meg tries to keep him in reality with budgets and time lines. Eric is a really funny character and good partner for grumpy ol Perry. This year has had some really cool cars and more projects that are edgy like the Naked 57 Chevy and the Guacamole BMW. The movie cars that Jeff buys and sells are always interesting too. My favorite episodes are usually the auctions because they are so suspenseful. You can really tell that Meg is really nervous at those auctions and the risk is very exciting. Keep on Chasing, love it!

    My family enjoys the characters on the show - they all have a different personality just like any family. We particularly like that they include people they work with as well as friends in the show. It seems to complete a cycle of how they buy, fix and sell collectibles. Jeff Allen seems to enjoy finding cars of particular interest and talking to the owners of these vehicles - I like the way he has a genuine interest in people and taking time to get to know them. He makes friends every where he goes (usually). Jeff & Roundman are like walking encyclopedias when it comes to cars. All in all, my family will have a belly laugh during the show when one of the characters does something funny and we are drawn in finding out about people and their cars.

    Can't brag enough about this show and the people behind it. There is nothing fake about this reality show, met Jeff and Meg in person when they raced to Arizona and they were above and beyond what I expected. Very down to earth car lovers. Loved the show, can't wait to watch what they buy next!!! It even interested the whole family.......................................................... Wonderful show!!!! Down to Earth!!!!!!!!! Magnificent Finds!!!!!!!!! Great People!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope to see their gallery in person some day!! They even gave us a driver metal from their race and took lots of pictures and signed our sign we made for them before partying. They care about others. I would have never thought that anyone from reality shows were as caring and considerate as they were. Tank you for a once in a life time experience and a wonderful show to watch!

    Great cars. Great people. Great show. What more could you ask for? Their new season comes out November 5, 2014. The guys on the show are really down to earth and they are some great people. Jeff is funny but can be a serious business man at the same time. Meg is the boss of all bosses and keeps the company running smoothly. Perry is a master builder of cars and motorcycles and he could work on anything. Roundman is funny also and gives Jeff a lot of crap lol. Jeff is his son. Eric is the mad scientist and should come out with his own line of doctors coats to work on cars. I know I will be tuning into CNBC!!!! I cannot wait!!

    I personally love the show! It seems a lot more genuine than a lot of other automotive programming nowadays. I love the cast, the episodes are always a lot of fun to watch and I love the cars featured on the show! Most other shows seem scripted and degrade in quality over time. But Jeff, Meg, Eric and Perry always seem to find new ways to make the show fun and exciting. The variety of cars and the locations they visit on the show are what make it great for me. Sometimes I get tires of watching shows where all they fix up are Camaros, Mustangs and F100s. On the Car Chasers, you never know what to expect. I've personally met Jeff and Meg and have to say, they are even cooler in person than they are on TV! They are true car enthusiasts and were very genuine people. I can't wait for the next season! The Car Chasers is one of the best automotive programs on TV! Fantastic show guys!
