Looking for a TV show

About a year ago I was watching a show where they were doing a resto. on a '70 to '72 red cutlass. I have no idea what network or company that restored this car. I have though checked the archives from the shows Overhaulin and Powerblock with no luck. Upon finishing the project they presented the car back to the owners. Does anyone have any memory of this episode?

Thanks

Wasnt this show a series where the team takes the owners car - because of either a disability or being sent to war - and present it back to them? If I remember right they also did a resto on an ugly '69 AMC ? I remember this show being on network t.v on either a Saturday or Sunday, and I think the NASCAR people were somehow involved, right?

No luck with Hemmings. Are their restoration shows on the Speed channel? I don't get it with my cable package.
