Anyone watch it?

I really liked the pontoon/bus idea, great for the summer!



What show/vehicle did you like?

I have seen it a few times I don't like watching regular tv though. too damn many commercials, for a 1 hour program seems like they show 45 minutes of commercials and the 15 left they spend 10 of that talking to the people on the team and about 4.5 mins showing them actually working on it then 30 seconds of driving their creation. Other than the commericals they do some pretty crazy shit.

they are most likely owned by discovery channel... i'm sure jesse has the wheelstanding ambulance though...

the show is pretty tight, though... and it does show alot of real stuff going on...

the wheels and paint are usually freebies, which are thrown in by local shops, (wheels, not paint) and that gets their name on the show, and people see that... and buy stuff ... it's marketing...

that's why they got free stuff from jeg's... i'm sure that didn't help their sales at all...

but i love the show

Are you talking about the Surban that was transformed into a wedding chaple? That was finnished but it really sucked. The guy that made the pipe organ was a real asshole.

I want to know how the paint jobs are done-the way they look you know there is no way it was painted and glossed in one night....

These guys make engine swaping seem like a piece of cake

I've only seen the Bug/boat one which was uh... wierd. It looked like an upside-down fish-bowl floating in water
