SHIFTERS S0-CAL / P.P.E. on the history channel

15 hours of filming for 15 minutes of air time. other than not showing flem and his fathers interview and original 1950's footage of flems father jalopy racing at ascot i thought it was very professional. i really dug my brothers PPE part and squeaks initiation.

 

p.s. for you so-cal guys with local cable tv. it looks like it airs at 9:00 p.m. pacific time.

 

Watched it. It turned out good! I like when you talked about people wanting to get into Shifters CC. And you said "You just can't!" That right there is priceless my man. You did the hobby or lifesyle good.

Axle without a doubt the most enjoyable hour of tv I have watched in ages. Very cool show. Could have done without the meathead, you should have kicked him in the balls when he grabbed you by the shoulder.

 

huh huh huh, you said "rat rod" huh huh huh huh huh huh huh

 

"RAT ROD" is to the 00's as "HOT ROD" was to the 50's,,get used to it,,nobody can change it..to late...HAHAHAHA

 

So how about an Arkansas chapter of the Shifters?


LOL.........Great show guys.

 

Do you think they could have gotten a bigger doofus for a host? Show was good despite professional wrestler guy.

 

Did anyone get a video of it??

 

There is a Shifter's car club in Michigan established innnnnnnn 1955. Bunch of old boys still at it.

GOD! I could drool on Billy Gibbons car collection all day and all night! When I become rich, I'm gonna be Billy..................but without the beard!

i just got done watchin a re broadcast of it...

not bad. never heard of the show before tonight but looks like its been an ongoing deal


Goldturd...

 

HAHAHAHAHA!! Riiiiiiiiight... I'll believe that when me shit turns purple and smells like rainbow sherbet.


I'd have to agree on meathead. I've watched the series so far and like it. Except having to listen to him. The show on moonshine cars was fun. Didn't really care for the one they did on death cars. Just seemed fuckin morbid. Even for me.

Congrats to the Shifters and the folks putting the show together. It's a rare thing to find an enjoyable TV show anymore. I'd love to have seen the '50s footage you're talking about.

 

surf monkey, I copied it to a dvd last night. I have not had time to watch it and see how it came out. If you are interested in a copy, send me a pm and for the cost of a dvd and shipping it across the water, I'll make you a copy(if it came out all right)

 

Definately the best hour of tv I have seen in a long time. I thought they did a real good job and used some awesome old footage. It was very inspirational for the outside world if they ewatched it which is always good. Hope they keep doing more shows.

 

I didn't catch all of it, but have the Tivo set to catch it next time.
My personal favorite part was when they had Axle talking and sitting right behind him is that Caddy Flatty powered roadster with the polished Cyclones, and the swoopy exhaust. Hell YEAH!

 

So it looked like axle was going to get wrecked because he doesn't like muscle cars!

 

I enjoyed it, the host could be worse, could be better....

I'm just not a fan of the Rat Rod term anymore, though I think that's what they wanted to hear...

 

Good show, cheesy host.....I must agree. Loved seeing the PPE go down the track, looks like it would be fun to drive.

 

Who's got a tape!? I lost my satellite a few weeks back

 

Caught the show last night. One of the best "rod" shows I have seen on the tube. No drama, just cool cars. Nice to see the PPE running down the strip!!

Congrats on the exposure, (not the inititiation pics), you guys deserve it for keeping the trad torch burnin'.

 

Great show!! Loved it!!!!!!!!

 

I thought it was a great show, the old lakes footage was real nice. The one flaw was showing the black & white Chevrolet factory production line while talking about Model T Fords. Bill Goldberg has a good voice and does a good job as host/narriator in my opinion.

 

Goldberg=Dipshit........................ the Shifters=Good!

all in all awesome show. my wife and i really enjoyed it. she especially loved the PPE she couldn't believe that thing! congrats to axle & the rest of the Shifters.

Caught it last night, good show, lots of good footage. The whole 80's 90's smoothy pastel stuff got irritating for me personally, thankfully that part was short, and they showed lots of neat shit.

Goldberg might come off a bit cheesy in the show but he's a huge car fan in general. If it goes fast and makes lots of noise you bet yer butt he's probably got one. And personally I'd really not want to get on his bad side, 275lbs of muscles and mean headed for you, with the specific frame of mind of hurting you would definately not be a good thing.

Wonder if he's a lurkin on here now cuz he's been talkin to Axle....Hey Bill!!

 

Watched it last night. Yea, that Goldberg is something else.

yep, i sure did, but just wait for the DVD, it comes out in August-- i only taped it cuz i was in it for like 2 seconds though-- in the ex's car at the 2004 VLV show!!

Axle, you rock man-- what has happened?!? you need to give me a call!!

 

dang i missed it! But it airs again this Sunday, July 10 at 11:00pm ET.
