Description

Fridge Ciggie Garage is where the shed door’s open and the stories are real.

Hosted by Charlie Dixon from Drivin’ with Dixon, this series brings some of Australia’s best car builds straight to Charlie's Shed House. Owners roll up, crack a drink, and talk through the blood, sweat and busted knuckles that went into building their pride and joy.

From wild street machines to backyard builds, FCG is all about the people behind the cars - the stories, the struggles, and the moments that make a project special.

Pull up a chair in the garage where the Cokes are cold and the engines are hot.
