This is almost a real-life Matchbox sighting. (Well, TV sighting).

On the North American History channel reality show American Restoration proprietor Rick Dale got presented with a Lambretta scooter to restore. He claimed not to be able to recognize it.

Here's another account of the incident.

I'd thought perhaps Rick deserved to be mailed a 36b, but as I read more details, I think perhaps not.

This certainly throws some light on "reality" tv lol

One comment from the account you linked: "...Those shows have completely ****ed the entire estate sale/auction scene of the real world.
Now everyone thinks their garbage is pure gold..."


True, that. They did it to me in my (house) remodeling business too. A glut of "DIY" shows, with a bunch of B.S. about how cheap and easy it is to remodel, or buy and "flip" a house for profit. Everyone's a freaking expert now...

as fake and scripted as these shows are...they still show some cool stuff...thats why i tune in
