Default The Garage on the Discovery channel.

A few weeks ago i was asked a couple of questions, one about torsion bar settings and one another question about a clutch on a Ford Maverick,

We discussed these items in the forums and they have been answered by our members.

This started after i received a phone call via the "contact us" tab on the home page from the TV company that makes the program called the Garage showing on the Discovery channel at the moment at 9pm on Monday evenings.
(Sky Channel 520)

The series will run for 10 episodes and the Maverick will feature in episode 6 and will be shown sometime in December and will feature a thank you to the club for its help.

When i know the exact date i will post it in here.

Thanks for your help.

Mav.

I found the recent 'Dog' incident where he and his 'posse' went into Mexico to grab a bail bond jumper and they all ended up arrested by Mexican authorities for carrying weapons and attempted kidnap. So funny!

Yes, Mr Dog Mexico is another country and not another adjacent state!

On topic I do have Sky and hope I catch the episode at some point Mav.

Hello again JimsTerrano,

I spoke to the man yesterday on the phone from the program and he asked which i would prefer, and i went for the verbal as some switch off at the credits.

It will go out on the 3rd December at 9pm on channel 520.

I would just like to thank Gareth Sakala from endemoluk.com for getting in touch with us.

It just shows us that you never know who’s looking in on us.

Mav.
