Nobody mentioned the highly skilled staff of "Desert Classics" and the World's Largest Junk Yard that turns out a full restoration in a week.

I enjoyed Car SOS for the short time I was able to watch it.

So here’s one I noticed the other day on one of the how to car shows where they sell products. The guy who is pretending to be a car know it all was packing wheel bearings. As the camera pans in on the bearings I see that the guy’s hands were dirty and he is not wearing rubber gloves. I try to do things the right way and show my kids and other young people the right way and here’s this idiot on TV doing packing dirt into the new bearings.

Until this recent obsession with rubber gloves, millions upon millions of bearings were packed with bare hands. I've done hundreds myself and none failed, that I am aware of and my hands are still intact. Greasy hands are not, necessarily, dirty.

Just the opinion of another idiot

I have packed bearings without gloves.

I make sandwiches without gloves.

I don't sanitize shopping cart handles.

I am a bad influence in today's world.

I watched the same show and the guys hands were filthy. He should have been wearing gloves. I think that was the point Benjamin j was making. You all are pretty quick to criticize forum members for people who can't read.

After packing bearings with my bare hands I will go in and make a sandwich after just wiping my hands off.

Do you guys pump your own gas? Do you wear a glove? Ever wonder were the customers before you had their hands? Never got a cold this winter, I credit the glove. Bob

Actually, First Post Joe, I can read. Quite well as a matter of fact. I was not, necessarily, criticizing anyone. Just making a point, as pointless as it may be.

As to the obsession with gloves and the germophobia that runs rampant these days, I'm like 29Chrysler. I don't sweat the small stuff. I am 67 years old and have never, not once, had the flu, food poisoning or any other germy diseases. I did have cancer but I doubt gloves would have helped:)

These shows are more about money than they are about cars.
