Charles Handler has always been interested in cars -- he says his first word was "wheel" -- so he decided to launch a career that involves classic vehicles. He is co-owner of The Bomb Factory, a New Orleans-based company that services classic cars and hot rods to help them stay on the road while looking good and running strong. "Big Easy Motors" highlights the work done by Handler and his crew as they search around Louisiana for one-of-a-kind classic cars that aren't in good shape but can be restored and brought back to like-new condition. Once the restorations are complete, Handler places the cars in high-stakes auctions, where he hopes to make a profit after subtracting all of the money he spent to improve the vehicles.
