The series takes place in the South Shuswap, an area in Tappen, British Columbia, also called as "Rust Valley", which is known for its unique car community and junkyards.

A rock blaster by profession, Hall began collecting cars in his teens and decades later owned over 400 parked on his property near the Trans-Canada Highway.

Hall then built a restoration workshop on his property and the show started in 2018.[3][4][5]
