My Classic Car (1997– )
2/10
Mostly not about classic cars
24 August 2019
Like or loathe Dennis Gage (I find him annoying at best), this show should either adjust its coverage or change its title. While there is some grey area, generally "classic cars" comprise a fairly defined car category. Usually, they are non-modified or modestly modified cars. Show after show, we see custom cars, resto-mods, hot rods, race cars, and other categories not related or mildly related to classics. In fact, it seems that often the shows that reliably actually focus on classics are when Gage visits Jay Leno's collection.

The other categories are interesting to some (not me), and there are plenty of actual classic cars and places/venues to cover them that are wholly ignored. So if this show wants tp cover this broad base, maybe change the title to "Custom Cars, Hot Rods, Resto-mods and Classics." That would be more truthful and representative. As it is right now, its rather like having a show "All About Tennis" but you cover ping-pong, pickleball, handball, and anything involving smacking a ball somewhere.
