Graveyard Carz is an American automotive reality TV show made on location in Springfield, Oregon that restores late 1960s/early 1970s Mopar muscle cars. The Graveyard Carz shop motto: "It's Mopar or No Car" As of December 2016, the show is in its sixth season on Velocity.

The Show

Graveyard Carz was created and is owned by Mark Worman. It is made independently by The Division, a film and television production company in which Worman is also the CEO. The show's relationship with Velocity is what is called "a pre-sale acquisition". The Division retains all creative control but frequently takes notes and suggestions from the Velocity team.

In 2016 TERN commissioned and acquired the global rights for 26 episodes of Graveyard Carz in HFR UHD. These episodes will be aired on Velocity in HD as Season 6 and elsewhere by Insight as Season 6 and Season 7.

The 1971 Phantom 'Cuda

Mark Worman wanted to document the restoration of a 1971 Plymouth 'Cuda, painted Hemi Orange, equipped with a 440 6 Barrel V8, a HD Hemi 4-Speed transmission, and a 3.54 ratio Dana 60 rear axle. On July 5, 1981, the car was wrecked after the driver lost control in a 100 mph race with a pickup truck. After acquiring the car, Mark entered into an agreement with a collector to have the car restored.

To prove to nay-sayers that the car could be restored, Mark had the son of local friend (Aaron Smith) film the restoration. After seeing how entertaining the team was, Mark and Aaron decided to start shooting concept material for a television pilot, and Graveyard Carz was born.

Over the course of the first five seasons, viewers have seen The Phantom 'Cuda undergo a slow transformation. In Season 1, it was dipped, while its overall condition was assessed in Season 2. Season 3 saw the repair of a fender to determine if the sheet metal was too compromised to use in the restoration. At the end of Season 4, the 'Cuda was shipped off to AMD Installation, and it returned in Season 5 with all brand new sheet metal. In Season 6 The Phantom Cuda is completed, restored to factory condition.

Cast (The Ghouls)

The first four seasons of Graveyard Carz featured Mark Worman, Royal Yoakum, Josh Rose, and Daren Kirkpatrick. Seasons 2 and 3 featured recurring cast member Holly Chedester, who did not return for Season 4.

Season 5 (previously titled Season 4b) brought back Mark Worman's daughter Allysa Rose (who was a recurring cast-member in Season 1), his best-friend Royal Yoakum and introduced new painter Will Scott (who had been part of the original concept for the series), and new assembly technician and long-time fan of the show David Rea.

Production

Currently, a 13-episode season takes about 100 days of continuous shooting. Earlier seasons took more than a year, as the original crew would only work Saturdays on Mopar builds. True to the show's premise, the current cast are actual automotive technicians, and the film-crew plans series' shoots around the elements of key car builds.

Once a car is completed, if its owners are willing, a shoot is planned to see the car "revealed" to them. The film-crew takes extra care to make the "reveal" as true to life as possible.

Due to the nature of how quickly the show must be produced, and how long it actually takes to build a car, the episodes are edited parallel with the filming. Therefore, each episode doesn't have a typical car-show reveal, but instead, emphasis is placed on the smaller yet significant sub-assembly builds needed on a car.

Comedic storylines are often shot separately, away from the actual car work being done. Therefore, every effort is made to place them in episodes as close to when they occurred in real-time in order to avoid continuity issues. Despite popular belief, most comedic storylines are 100% true, depicting events that have happened in the shop. The cast is encouraged to let the film crew in on any pranks, so as best to capture real reactions.

Season 6 revamp

Graveyard Carz went through a total revamp: new logo, new graphics, and new show format built upon the changes made in Season 5. Rather than focusing on the cast and their daily activities, focus has shifted to the cars and their builds in order to draw in viewers disheartened by the original format of the show.
