Easy watching. Love Ian's repurposing keeping builds highly creative ( but at a level the average Joe can afford or use some ideas ). Repurposing of knowledge is good. Please don't change the format. I feel like I have been working across from Ian's bench in the same shop. In short it is fun to watch. It's not cookie cutter ( I like the way he creates his projects) no computers or 3 D printers. Just ideas, trial and error and a creative fun guy next door approach . Thanks and keep up the good work. PS Have to love the QC dept head when he inspects.

I have followed the show since it started. While watching S7 E8, I started to get eye strain and headache with all the zooming in and out, along with all the bouncing action of the camera. Why not use the stabilization setting and just shoot the scene so we can enjoy the set with out all the rapid zooming in and out.

Full custom garage is my favorite car building show. Ian is so fun to watch. And I always like to see what he does with the cars.

It's a must watch show for me. And I you like cars I think you will enjoy watching Full custom garage.

Amazing builder . Fun to watch ! Hope I get to see more .

I've been watching auto shows a long time and this is one of the best.A car show that has no drama! and no gimmicks no stupid humor.His extraordinary talent and no fake short timescales.Just creative genus.

I really like everything I've seen. However, there is one of Ian's builds that, while I liked the end result, I think it should have been done with a different style in one area. On the "Merc Eater" I would have kept the iconic Packard "Tombstone" grill, maybe with pieces of the Merc grill to the sides. It's supposed to be a car that eats Mercs for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The point of the car was something other than a Merc, and that Packard grill would define its' lineage, and let everybody know what it is. What he ended up with is basically a Merc, so why start with a Packard? I learn something each episode. Like the cop he did on a Henry J was very helpful in my own quest to build custom cars, I'm not a motorcycle enthusiast, but Ian did a couple of trikes that were interesting, even to me. The big truck that he made a tilt front end and widened fenders used a method similar to what I did on a 52 Chevy truck a few years ago. Turning a 4 door into a 2 door was very informative. I did something similar on , believe it or not, a 1974 AMC Hornet, except I kept the rear door, just shorter front to back.

Ian you are one amazing dude!! Your creativity and how you work gives people incentives to create things. And your dog he's the best I just watched the show where he got a bed and a tool vest that he can wear He's cute. Now he has a nice comfy place to watch you work!! Keep the shows coming You're so original All these other car shows are for people that have millions of dollars have 20 car collections or more and millions and millions of dollars who cares You create beautiful automobiles and motorcycles out of parts that you find and create It takes a lot more imagination and talent to do that!!! The Cruise liner is gorgeous. Just watch that episode tonight. Can't get enough of your shows.

I love watching Ian figure out his projects, giving me a look at how to approch designing a project.

I have only seen 4 episodes of this show so far but I am very impressed with the work, style and skills of fabricator/builder Ian Roussel. The show is very entertaining and interesting. It really is a pleasure to watch Ian at work, especially if you are a car guy and he presents himself admirably on the show.

It's a credit to the producers of the program that they chose to showcase a talented person like Ian. Hopefully the program will give many young guys coming up some inspiration to work hard and develop a range of skills that will set them up for life.

It's a shame there are not more quality reality programs like this one rather than the blithering idiots very often showcased on some other reality programs of this kind.

I always watch the show because is always doing great things,surprise me every time,he is incredible,like he said;"Sky is the limit on every project ".

Ian got a mind limitless for anything that came to his shop,he's unstoppable,sometimes do the impossible,hoping never get brain cancer,too much thinking doing what he likes & so calm,never stress out(maybe a little)never shows it.

I never get tired me watching his show,he's amazing talented,resolved any problem right away! Congratulations Ian,

Ian has some serious talent, and I would believe he is a great guy in person. When he talks to his dogs while working I am always laughing! This show is so different as he doesn't claim to be an expert but figures all problems out using parts just laying around. I am a BIG FAN!

He has this personality that keeps you hooked on the screen. I feel bad that he didn't get to experience all he does now with his father or grandfather. The way he embraced Lincoln's view and ideas, was just what every kid needs when they are expressing themselves. He took that situation and made a memory that will forever be a positive one for that young man. Keep it up Ian. You are a great influence to this world!

Obviously this guys are a master at their craft and that is very respectable. To much talking though. Record it if you can!

Great show. Roussel is obviously a very interesting and talented guy who makes great cars. His collaboration with others is fascinating.

Hi I'm technically still a minor and so far I have found this show very intriguing. When I'm an adult I wish to become a mechanic and work on all sort of engines and this show has been very helpful for me and my goals. Ian is (in all honesty) a flipping genius! I mean like he comes up with this stuff all by himself and without any paper or electronics! So basically what I'm saying is I love this show, Ian is a real brilliant dude and I think anyone interested customizing cars or just cars in general should really watch this show. (Ian if you are reading this please teach what you know BTW I live The Central Valley.)

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE KEEP FULL CUSTOM GARAGE ON THE MOTOR TREND CHANNEL FOR EVER. IAN IS A ABSOLUTE PRO. DAMN GOOD AT WHAT HE DOES. VICTOR HIM TO. AND ALL HIS FRIEND,S. I LOVE FULL CUSTOM GARAGE AND THE BABY,S ( THE BEAUTIFULL ) DOG,S. THEY LOVE IAN. IM VERY SURE IAN DOES TO. PLEASE KEEP THEM ON MOTOR TREND FOR EVER.

I've watched pretty much every "car show" out there, and in my humble opinion there is none better than Full Custom Garage. Ian does amazing work and the series is very entertaining! No BS just great content!!

Love every moment of the show. I'm an engineer and always plan, measure (multiple times) and then cut. But Ian, OMG!!! Just does it and the results are always wonderful. I love this show so much, my Wednesday starts off with a sad note, if I don't see the show recorded on my DVR!!!

Chevy truck on S6E6 was so awesome, I would buy it in a heartbeat. Sincere request to show producers, this episode could've been an easy 2 part series. Please reconsider showing us every piece of creative work Ian does. I won't be bored of watching Ian's work no matter what he creates, especially S6E6 truck. I'm sure others would agree. This was just one example, there are other episodes that could've been extended easily.

I love this show! Ian is so laid back and easygoing. No drama and just an amazing way to see a problem, think outside the box and do it. That's the thing I love about it. Most people would fix the same problem this way and Ian says, let's do this. It's truly the firefighter way of thinking. Adapt and overcome, there are no wrong ways as long as it gets done.

Best show you've ever put on the air. It's Ian building great cars and showing us what he's doing and how. Please bring it back,..or at least bring any episode you've got that hasn't been aired on the Motor trend app and post it. Literally the best build show ever made.

'Full Custom Garage' (FCG) is a unique series, airing on a cable channel which is a poster child for running series that are all the same. FCG brings a talented metal worker, welder and artist (not a mechanic, he tends to avoid that topic) together will junk yard odds and ends with the result usually being some sort of strange looking small vehicle, truck, car or 3 wheeler. Ian, the host, as many have noted here and he often let's us know on air doesn't use blueprints or other normal work guides. Instead, he works thru visions in his head and crafts whatever those might be.

Ian uses props as guest persons, usually some old timer from the hills of Northern California who need something done to a vehicle they own, and usually 'right away'. this, or course, adds the element of time, running against the clock and the dynamic, or friction, to get the project done before the episode ends. This is the aspect of the series I'm not a fan of. Ian is a unique entertainer whose skills alone can carry most episodes. Running it against the clock knocks the series down a lot, taking it from something possible special, certainly unique, to just another version of the never ending battalions of the channels other series. Those all feature the usually over tattooed and over weight and bearded mechanics who labor away each day with a camera stuck in their face and are directed around by recent Film School losers under the hyper watchful eye of their respective boss/owner. The running 'against the clock' theme runs heavy with them. Each episode features some project that highlights the services the garage provides, the owner standing outside of the work and workers dropping by only to comment on the time element. These series have, for the past several seasons, been using the theme of the business and how they are all driven by making a lot of money, etc.

Perhaps the worst of these series I the 'Graveyard Cars', which appears to just be a one hour feature series on old Detroit power cars logistics and supply chain functions. The owner of this garage and program host stands out because he is a certified nut, totally insane and out of touch with reality. Things on his show have gotten so bad that he can only employ and feature on the series family members. Most of the actual mechanics blew this guy off, finding working for him too much to endure.

Finally, the only other series on this channel that was close to reality and not driven by the clown show characters of the rest, Fantomworks garage, was cancelled last season. Although still in reruns it was axed when the owner wouldn't turn his garage into a clown show, aka 'Graveyard Cars' and start stocking his place up with fat white 20s tattooed bearded figments who

Fabricator, Ian Roussel, is an absolute delight for automotive enthusiasts and casual smarties. Ian's infectious passion for customizing vehicles shines through in every episode. I wish his dog came with him everywhere except for just criticizing him around the shop . His creativity knows no bounds, and the transformations he achieves are nothing short of remarkable. The show strikes the perfect balance between education and entertainment, and Ian's down-to-earth personality makes it easy to connect with him. "Full Custom Garage" is a must-watch for anyone who appreciates craftsmanship and automotive artistry. Dune buggies sparkle and Ian manages to succeed in every car challenge that he attempts. This show should be mandatory for anyone wanting to learn how to drive.

Sorry too be so blatant, but this is the most horribly produced and directed car show I've ever seen. it spends 95% of the time staring at Ian's head (or his guest's) and about 5% of the time actually showing work or even the car itself. Contrast this with any other successful car show and you see a little interviewing, but mostly their commentary overlapping actual work being done on the car.

Ian is obviously very talented and creates some extremely interesting works of art, but after 3 attempts, i finally had to just give up cause I got so tired at staring at Ian and others on the show. The most offensive part about it is where the camera is staring at the side of Ian's head for several minutes as he drones on and on about work he's done or is going to do while he is obviously looking at the vehicle WE want to see, but can't because they refuse to aim the camera that way....or if they do, its for a brief moment, and we're back to staring at the side of Ian's head again. This is really amateurish TV. Its unwatchable as a result. The formula should be flipped 180 degrees - 5% looking at Ian and 95% on the vehicle project.

I have watched several episodes over the past couple of years. I admire Ian's metal working shills. However his techniques are questionable at best. He seems to have no concern over the abuse of out environment and air quality. I recently watched him using an old siphon paint gun. These where outlawed for commercial use many years ago. I am sure a TV production would be considered a commercial venture. He never uses a paint booth, but instead sprays in am open garage. I restore old cars as a hobby and I have thrown away my old siphon gun years ago. I built a home paint booth with 2X4's, 6 mil plastic, furnace filters and household exhaust fans. I have painted sever cars in my attached home garage using that booth and have never even smelled the paint in my house. If I, a 73 year old retired hobbyist can be conscious about our future generations, I believe Ian can, especially with his TV income.

I always liked muscle cars, hot rods, and classic American cars, but never had more than a passing interest. Then, when I least expected it, I fell in love. It were the Shelby AC Cobra what done it. It is basically, in Carrol Shelby's own words, a hot rod. A bit unrefined - sure. Squirrelly at times, possibly even unsafe - you bet. But it's about the most fun you can have with your clothes on, it looks cool, and it goes like stink.

For a time, it even put the fear of God into the European thoroughbreds on the track. Those are refined, smooth, and precisely engineered. They're also expensive, finicky, and unreliable (Porsche excluded from this last fault) and this is by design. They're like classical music. No detail is left unconsidered - even the prearranged patronage/service agreements. Need a tune-up, or even an oil change? Take a deep breath, open your wallet, and leave it to the "qualified service technicians". Weekend mechanics and hobbyists not wanted here, and only those with seriously deep pockets need apply.

The cars Ian works on and dreams up aren't classical music. They ooze mojo, personality, creativity, and fun. They come from a world where gas was cheap, and everything wasn't so safe and boring. They are grade A, hi-test American rock n' roll. They are, above all else, hand-built hot rods. You don't need a degree in engineering (or, heaven forbid, computer science) to take them apart and put them back together, or even modify them beyond anything the folks who designed them ever intended. You need some mechanical skills, some welding and fabrication skills, time, passion, and some good old fashioned know-how and imagination. No AutoCAD, no CNC, just human skill, creativity, and intuition steeped in American hot rod and classic custom car tradition. Nothing is off the table - if it works, do it. If it looks cool, do it. Everybody is welcome to this party, and it's a pretty freaking good time.
