Summer is a great time to throw open the garage door and get your car into shape by finishing off a lingering project or getting regular maintenance done. No matter how complex your automotive endeavor is, the women of Velocity's ALL GIRLS GARAGE are the experts to turn to for "how-to" advice when it comes to just about any car repair or customization project. From brake pads and block repairs to body work and interior customization, these ladies aren't afraid to get their hands dirty to demonstrate money saving repair tips for auto owners. All new episodes of ALL GIRLS GARAGE return exclusively to Velocity beginning Saturday, August 15 at 11:30 AM ET/PT.

ALL GIRLS GARAGE welcomes Rachel De Barros in her television debut as the new co-host of the series alongside longtime co-hosts Cristy Lee and Sarah "Bogi" Lateiner. Rachel's love for all things automotive came from spending her teenage summers helping out at her uncle's collision shop in Washington, D.C. where she was introduced to bodywork and paint. Today she is the chief marketing officer, host and executive producer for "Gearhead Diva", a do-it-yourself car building community and network that produces edu-tainment style videos for today's social generation.

Her expertise combined with Cristy's and Bogi's long-standing histories with vehicle repairs will continue making ALL GIRLS GARAGE one of the top "how-to" automotive series on television. In each episode of ALL GIRLS GARAGE Cristy, Bogi and Rachel repair, modify, and restore all types of vehicles, helping audiences learn valuable tips and tricks to use in their garages at home.

In the premiere episode on Saturday, August 15 at 11:30 AM ET/PT, Cristy, Bogi and Rachel take on custom interior work and a new steering column for a 1969 Camaro SS with an LS engine. Later episodes throughout August and September feature engine and suspension work on a 1969 AMC Javelin AMX, the build of a Baja Raptor F150, outfitting a 2009 Nissan 370Z with a Corvette LS3 engine and much more. ALL GIRLS GARAGE airs Saturdays at 11:30 AM ET/PT only on Velocity.

ALL GIRLS GARAGE is produced for Velocity by Brenton Productions. Elaine Lochridge is executive producer for Brenton Productions. For Velocity, David Lee is vice president of production and Robert Scanlon is general manager.
