Shows about people buying old heaps of junk on wheels and restoring them seem to be really popular. We like them a lot and find them both entertaining and somewhat educational – Discovery Channel is launching another one now, and judging by the trailers, it’s going to be pretty good.

It’s called Turbo Pickers, and it follows the tried and true formula for such a show (not that there was anything wrong with it…). The hosts go out looking for a beaten up classic, they haggle their way to a fair price then try to bring it back to its former glory with as little cash as possible, then sell it on.

We won’t give anything away, as you don’t have long to wait before it officially premieres, on December 1, but we had the chance to see the pilot episode and enjoyed every minute of it.

If you like this type of show, in the vein of Wheeler Dealers, then this new one will be right up your alley. Check out the two snippets posted below too!
