Hop on the highway to hell with the Pawn Stars when Chumlee checks out a one-of-a-kind Ford Model A dubbed the "Hellbilly". Complete with flamethrowers and a skull stick shift, will he burn a hole in Rick's pocket to score this custom car? Then, Rick and Corey get nostalgic when vintage Pinocchio and Donald Duck toys wind up in the shop. Will they hit the negotiation on the nose or end up getting played? And later, when the Old Man leaves town, Rick rushes to make some expensive renovations. Will the Old Man get ugly, or just get even?.
Pawn Stars is filmed in Las Vegas, Nevada, where it chronicles the daily activities at the World Famous Gold & Silver Pawn Shop, a 24-hour family business operated by patriarch Richard Harrison (or "The Old Man"), his son Rick Harrison (who opened the shop with his father in 1988), Rick's son Corey (who has worked there since childhood), and Corey's childhood friend, Austin "Chumlee" Russell.
The series depicts the staff's interactions with customers, who bring in a variety of artifacts to sell or pawn and who are shown haggling over the price and discussing its historical background, with narration provided by the Harrisons and occasionally Chumlee. The series also follows the interpersonal conflicts among the cast.
Numerous local experts in a variety of areas also regularly appear to appraise the items being sold or pawned.
