DESCRIPTION:
(from Travel Channel's press release, April 2012) This half-hour series follows antique car expert Corky Coker, and his team, on a freewheeling road trip through the back roads and small towns of the Deep South. A man on a mission, Coker is on the hunt for barn finds - automotive diamonds-in-the-rough that have been hidden away or just forgotten for years. When he's on target, Coker is wheeling, dealing, shucking and jiving, all to get the best price on the right car to restore and resell at his shop, Honest Charley Garage. When he's distracted, Coker hits the scenic routes, roadside attractions and down-home restaurants - all the things that make for the kind of journey most of us no longer have time to take.
