Rick Dale’s show “American Restoration” was canceled by the History Channel after its seventh season in 2016. Since then, he has continued his restoration work through his own business, Rick’s Restorations, in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Rick Dale first gained popularity as the skilled restorer on the reality TV show “Pawn Stars,” which led to his own spin-off series, “American Restoration.” The show focused on Rick and his team at Rick’s Restorations as they brought various vintage items back to life. After a successful run, the show underwent a cast change in its seventh season, replacing Rick Dale and his crew with a new set of restoration experts across the United States.
The sudden change left many fans of the original cast disappointed, and the revamped show did not continue beyond that season. Despite the cancellation, Rick Dale remained passionate about restoration. He and his family have kept their business going, working on classic cars, vintage soda machines, gas pumps, and other memorabilia. They have maintained a loyal customer base and have continued to share their projects with followers on social media and through personal appearances.
Rick’s Restorations has become a tourist attraction in Las Vegas, where visitors can take guided tours of the shop and witness the restoration process firsthand. Rick has also made occasional appearances on other television shows and events, sharing his expertise and love for restoration with a broader audience. While “American Restoration” may no longer be on the air, Rick Dale’s legacy in the restoration community endures through his ongoing work and the impact he had on fans of the show.
