Synopsis/Details

Inspired by Adam Rocke's nonfiction book: "Nothing Runs: Hilarious Misadventures in the Classic, Collectable & Exotic Car Biz" - published by Veloce Press UK

Welcome to The Shop, where classic cars and family chaos collide under the expert mismanagement of the Taylor sisters, who prove once and for all that oil and water do mix — they just make a helluva mess in the process!

While Samantha tries to make the sale at any cost, Darla fights to protect these mechanical masterpieces from owners who think horsepower comes from actual horses. Caught in the middle, their father, Prescott, trying to keep the peace while balancing smart business decisions with his paternal responsibility. Add in a high-interest business loan that fell into the hands of the largest classic/exotic car dealer in the area, a misogynistic prick who will do whatever it takes to crush the competition, and the only guarantee is that hilarity and turmoil will ensue — right up until the deal is inked and the money changes hands. And even then, who knows?!

High Maintenance is a single-camera series in the vein of “Tires” meets“Fast ‘n Loud."
