American Restoration is an American reality television series airing on the History channel. Produced by Leftfield Pictures, the series is recorded in Las Vegas, Nevada, where it chronicles the daily activities at Rick’s Restorations, an antique restoration shop, with its owner Rick Dale, his staff, and teenage son, as they restore various vintage items to their original condition.

The show is the first spin-off of Pawn Stars, in which Dale has appeared several times as an on-camera expert and restored various items. The series has featured cameo appearances by the cast of Pawn Stars, American Pickers, magician Lance Burton, NASCAR driver Greg Biffle, and musicians Sammy Hagar, Billy Joel, and Jason Mraz.

Rick and his team convert a 1950s Victor Coca-Cola cooler into a combination cooler and hot dog grill, based on an original 1950s model of which only fifty were made and five still exist. Meanwhile, Rick Harrison asks the team to restore a battered barber’s pole, which he believes to be from the nineteenth century, with electrical equipment that has been added recently.

The shop restores a Punch-A-Bag strength tester machine from the early 1900s, and a customer brings in an old railroad strongbox that was used to transport gold across the country. Both projects are done to retain their vintage appeal while still being fully restored. The strongbox is customized to have specific decals and markings, and Rick and his team include gold bars made from clay as a bonus.

Rick and his team restore a 1957 civil defense air raid siren, done pro bono for the Clark County Heritage Museum’s exhibit on Nevada’s nuclear physics history. Also, a rare nickel-plated Michigan cash register from the early 1900s comes into the shop.

At a salvage yard, Rick and his brother Ron find a giant Fyr-Fyter fire extinguisher from the 1940s, and a gas pump from about 1919. While Rick hopes to auction off the gas pump after restoring it, the amount of money he puts into restoring the fire extinguisher limits his room for negotiation when a customer requires seeing it in action before buying it. Rick has to hire a professional to discharge the tank inside the fire extinguisher, which is estimated at being pressurized to over 400 psi.

Rick and his team restore a NASA helmet that was used in the Gemini missions. Meanwhile, an old picker needs a rusty gas cart fixed up. Rick and his team nearly destroy their oven trying to replicate the visor of the helmet, forcing Rick to hire an expert. Rick and his team also compete in a go kart race, which Rick and Tyler have a bet going where the loser has to sweep the shop.

Rick and his team restore a 1920s Watling slot machine, and overhaul a General Electric Pepsi cooler from the 1940s. Because the slot machine is missing almost all of its internal parts, Rick has to hire an expert to find a replacement mechanism. The cooler is converted from using cold water to chilled air. Meanwhile, Kyle and Kowboy make a bet where the loser has to drink an old Pepsi found in the cooler.

A 1940s cinema candy machine is restored. Also, a 1920s Herring-Hall Marvin safe is worked on. The safe’s mechanism is rusted and no combination is given, so Rick has to hire an expert to help remove the lock.

A customer wants a 1940s Sav-Flyer little red wagon restored. The wagon was a childhood toy for the owner, and was customized to have a Hudson badge on the back. Rick and his team restore the wagon, including a rechroming of the emblem. Meanwhile, another customer wants a 1910s Arco Wand railroad vacuum cleaner restored. At the end, Brettly receives a digital camera as a gift after he nearly ruined the wagon project by not taking pictures of where the pieces were to go.

A customer wants his father’s 1950s Matchless motorcycle restored. The logo on the bike was originally a decal, but is replaced with a painted logo. Meanwhile, Tyler works on a 1940s penny scale that was later converted to take dimes. Tyler almost ruins the project by breaking it, and Kyle has to bail him out.

A customer wants a 1940s department store X-ray machine designed to fit shoes. Rick has to hire an expert to determine whether the machine is still generating radiation. Afterward, Rick and his team replace the radiator with a lightbulb and pregenerated X-ray images. Meanwhile, another customer wants an 1880s apple corer and peeler restored. Also, Kowboy has to nail his toolbox to a table to prevent Brettley from taking his tools.

Hot & Cold

Tyler finds a 1950s Maxwell House vending machine near a dumpster at his school. Rick and his team restore it to resemble one from the Eldorado Casino. Meanwhile, a customer wants a 1930s Montgomery Ward refrigerator converted into a wine cooler. Rick hires Ted Hague to customize the paint to look more thematic of a wine cooler. The plastic interior is painted to resemble wood.

A customer wants a 1960s McCulloch go-kart restored as a showpiece. Meanwhile, Tyler attempts to restore a 1950s Lasko electric fan for his dad for Father’s Day. Tyler had gotten the fan for free, and while he hopes to restore it without spending any money, finds that the motor needs replacing. Tyler also matches his dad’s favorite color, Tropical Turquoise. This is Rick’s favorite color because it was the same color as his parents’ 1957 Buick. At the end, it is revealed that Tyler installed the fan backwards.

Tyler gets assigned to a Camel cigarettes Cub slot machine disguised to dispense gumballs. The gumballs on display are actually marbles and Rick and his team were able to repaint them. Meanwhile, Rick and his team restore a strength tester that had stood on the Santa Monica Pier. The machine originally took pennies, but was later converted to take nickels. Brettly hires a friend as his assistant. This friend turns out to be even lazier than Brettly, and Rick has Brettly fire him.

Picks & Ricks

Mike Wolfe and Frank Fritz bring in a 1957 Chevrolet 150, which Rick Harrison tasked them to find as a present for the Old Man’s 70th birthday.

Rick purchases a turnstile from an old picker who specializes in exotic and astounding novelties. Kyle finds the choice absurd. Meanwhile, Rick and his team restore a 1940s United States Postal Service mailbox. A customer brings in a 1967 Harley-Davidson motorcycle he wants restored as a surprise anniversary gift for his wife. His wife had not seen the bike since she was twelve. Originally blue, the bike is repainted in black and orange. The bike is listed as weighing 115 pounds (52 kilograms). This makes it roughly equal to being a moped.

The head of Lusse bumper cars wants a 1953 model restored. However, Rick and the customer cannot agree on a price, and Rick has to reject the offer. Meanwhile, another customer wants a 1960s kiddie ride restored. The ride consisted of a modified Italjet motorcycle mounted onto the kiddie ride mechanism. Meanwhile, another customer wants a Vendo change machine restored and painted to match his Pepsi machine. The change machine had previously been branded for Coca-Cola.

The mechanism of the ride is converted to take dimes.

A customer wants a 1940s baseball arcade game restored. The game, which had originally been on the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, had originally used wooden balls, but had been converted to use steel balls. This resulted in severe damage to the figurines. Rick and his team have to create molds of the players in order to replace them all, including the creation of an entirely new catcher. Meanwhile, another customer wants a 1920s Weaver tire changer restored. The iron changer is extremely rusty, and after several different methods, would not move until being soaked in a pickle bath.

Meanwhile, another customer wants a Trans World Airlines flight number sign restored. Also, Rick has Brettley get his truck washed. After getting it washed, Brettley stops by a stable to have lunch. However, a horse kicks up a lot of dust, which dirties the truck again. Brettley’s punishment is to wash the truck himself.

A customer wants his grandfather’s Vietnam War Cobra helicopter gunner helmet restored. The helmet had been custom painted, and the customer wants the decal of his grandfather’s regiment added. Meanwhile, another customer wants a rare 1940s Vendorlator Coke machine restored. Because the machine does not have raised lettering, a vinyl decal is used instead. Tyler doesn’t listen, and asks if he can do the lettering. To teach Tyler a lesson, Rick has Tyler take lettering lessons.

A customer wants a rare 1940s Victor one door Coke cooler, of which only 200 were made. Rick asks Tyler to search the boneyard for the missing parts, but Tyler thinks that it’d be cheaper to buy the parts than to pay him for the man hours. To teach Tyler a lesson, Rick has Tyler and Brettley catalog every part in the boneyard. For careless reasons, they also catalog a baby rabbit. Meanwhile, a picker brings in various items to sell. The only item of interest to Rick is a 1930s Koken barber chair. The cushions have to be remade entirely and Rick has them covered with horse hide.

Rick Harrison wants a 1950s Atomic Missile kiddie car restored. Rick has Tyler supervise Brettley, but Tyler doesn’t pay attention, and Brettley accidentally cuts through the metal. To teach Tyler a lesson, Rick has Tyler get a job. Tyler gets a job as a dish washer at a local pizza restaurant, but is eventually fired. Meanwhile, a customer wants a 1910s bus fare box restored. The box was originally black, but was later painted green. The original color is preserved.

The words below the Kotex logo are painted over. Rick has Tyler go to a pharmacy to get some feminine napkins for the dispenser. The dispenser sells for $400 at the auction. Meanwhile, a customer wants an 1880s Standard Oil fuel delivery wagon restored which causes an initial problem when the powder-coated paint won’t allow itself to be removed, but Rick quickly finds it to be a more-than-adequate primer.

A customer wants a 1960s ,ezeta scooter restored, which has not been run in over 2 years. Meanwhile, a customer wants a 1930s tin Sturdi Toy oil tanker restored. The toy had been originally purchased by her great-grandfather and had been handed down over the years. Meanwhile, members of Rick’s team go to a flea market, where Ron purchases a Betty Boop salt and pepper shaker holder (which the other members, including Rick, find absurd).

A customer wants his father’s Bantam tractor restored. The tractor is in pieces and requires study to determine where everything goes. Shortly before the customer arrives to pick up the tractor, Rick’s team discovers that the steering mechanism is not functioning properly, but they are able to get it to work just in time. Meanwhile, another customer wants a locomotive air brake tester restored. Rick heads to the Nevada Northern Railway Museum in Ely, Nevada to see an expert on train parts.

A museum owner wants a nineteenth century fire extinguisher cart restored. The cart had originally used a combination of sodium bicarbonate and sulfuric acid. The customer initially wants to give it a vintage appeal, but midway through the restoration project changes his mind and wants it ornate, which makes Rick wonder if they will make any money on work for the project. Meanwhile, Ron and Tyler purchase a 1960’s motorized Jet Board surfboard from an old man, and Brettly is asked to test the board’s buoyancy which he does at a casino pool that lands him in hot water. Meanwhile, Kowboy has a toothache. He does not want to pay an expensive dentist bill, so he removes the tooth himself with pliers.

The owner of a frozen custard store brings in a nineteenth century Round Oak potbelly stove from the set of Bonanza.

Later, Rick buys another compressor, but it somehow will not run. It turns out that Brettley forgot to put fuel in it.

Tyler and Ron go picking and buy a rare milk vending machine but spend more money than Rick had allowed them to spend. Tyler and Brettley find change in the machine, and decide to start their own savings fund for buying pizza, later emptying several old change holders for more money, which causes them to have a conflict with Kowboy and Kyle, who want all old change found at work to go to their Beer Fund. Meanwhile, a customer wants some 1950s amusement park handcars restored.

Brettley buys a 1965 Chevrolet K10 as his personal vehicle for $1,500. He manages the project while receiving help other members of the crew. Meanwhile, Tyler and Ron go picking at the Pinball Hall of Fame. After looking at the many games in the storage area, including a table-top machine, they discover a Peek-A-View peep show machine from the 1950s. In order to find some film for the machine, Tyler and Ron go to the Burlesque Hall of Fame. While Ron thinks that it would be illegal for Tyler to go into the building (Tyler being a minor), it turns out that there is no age limit for the Hall. Rick is able to sell the machine and the new owner plans to lend the machine to the Hall of Fame.

A customer wants a 1940s Maruishi bicycle restored, including reverting it to its original color, from green to black. The front fender ornament, a kangaroo, is missing, so Ted has to re-create one.

Meanwhile, Kelly is preparing for the company’s annual barbecue dinner. She borrows $200, which she spends on veggie burgers, light beer, and low fat cheese (much to Rick’s dismay). At the barbecue, the burgers are not met with much approval.
