If I remember right Velocity on Directv is a channel that is on their HD Extra Pack which costs an extra $5 a month.
Glad you found it, best channel on TV. Street Customs is the only one I don't watch. The owner is like 45 and thinks he's gangsta with the tat's and clothes. You'll find better shows on that channel.
I was going to switch to DirecTV but they didn't have it. Now I see they do.
Here is the line up on Velocity. Plus they added Car Fix and All Girls Garage last week.
I'm not sure how Saw Dogs made it on the channel, carving wood? Pass.

ONE OF A KIND
One of a Kind Cars peels back the paint, goes under the hood and puts you behind the wheel of ground-breaking autos: American classics; award show stunners; barnyard finds: every car featured has a story and the design or technological DNA to stand on its own. Whether it was built to push the limits of speed, optimize fuel-injection, beat Ferrari at their own game or simply to set the standard for future generations – these cars raced, broke records and became icons in their day.

After meticulous restoration, they live again to tell their stories to a new generation of car enthusiasts.

Just watched CarFix. Same old annoying Lou.
Man has great skills, I just can't stand his speaking. Thank God for closed captioning. I will be watching more to see how the show develops. I'll see a doctor about my dislike of Lou.
Three Chicks Garage is unwatchable. Silly gimmick, apparently I'm not shallow enough for the producer's liking.
As for Velocity itself, you guys new to the channel will find that, apperantly, the West Coast Customs people and Mecum auctions people each own 50% of the channel. Both those shows will be rammed down your throats again and agian and again. and again. All the other shows will give you a few new episodes and then they will be repeated endlessly. Endlessly.
I do like most of the shows but they need to cut loose with a bit more money and produce more episodes per season. Seems there are about 13 new episodes produced and then they are repeated to the point of cruelty. Especially WCC and Mecum.
