YES! I told my roomate it wasnt true, he didnt believe me, so I found him pics The car isnt as great as I expected just noticed something odd too, the car was NOT finished in the designated time: no headlights, grill shell, and that leather on the visor wasnt there, and also in the show they put on a 4 barrel cause the deuces didnt work now at the end of the show its got deuces again
I dig the car, the motor is cool and sounds insane. I guess that's the 600hp speaking. The leatherwork is amazing, but doesn't fit with the car IMO. I wonder if we'll see it the HAMB drags? haha. ****s about the puppy.
I think JJ could have done a lot better, that car ****ed- just like everything he does!!! Man, that is one cool car! I love them there rat rodz! That was one cool episode!!!! I did like the dog, however....poor little fella!
"60 MINUTES WEDNESDAY FEB. 23, 2005 (8:00-9:00 PM/ET) Jesse James, host of the Discovery Channel's Monster Garage, the show that takes ordinary machines and turns them into unique, supercharged vehicles. Correspondent: Vicki Mabrey. Producer: Wayne Nelson.WELL LET'S SEE HOW THIS INTERVIEW GOES ON WEDNESDAY , IT WAS FILMED DURING THE TANKER BUILD
I prolly woulda kicked that ***hole's teeth thru the back of his skull. Still dig the car. It bums me out that Peg died.
Man, us east coast guys look like **** thanks to Randy's at***ude. That car wasn't half as cool as that '54. That car is meant for 'Ol Skool Rodz. "Mechanical fans ****"...because in 1956 you could order your custom aluminum radiator and electric fan. Total product plug. If they have enough money to blow on a $16,000 car they were gonna cut up anyway, they could have bought a $10,000 car that would have ben just as decent and spent the rest on a posi rear, some wide whites, finned valve covers and a good set of small base Rochesters. Because 600+ hp stands a chance of getting hooked up on skinny tires and a open rear. What a disappointment, and through no fault of the builders. Good to see some familar faces on there though, good to see the East Coast represent just a little
I still gotta say I like the 54 chevy better, the car came out awesome the chop,paint and the stance was perfect...hey Joe I think they did put finned valve covers on at the end the show when it was back to Cali but stil it need whitewalls or something.
Someone please mail me a copy of the yellow '54 chevy build, since I haven't seen it and seem to be missing out. Thanks.
Whah... The dog died? I walk away for a few seconds at the end of the show to tuck the little lady into bed and I missed the dog dying? Bummer.... I wish that I could have gotten my hands on that A before they touched it. Looked like a great solid starting point. The stance was right on! I musta missed the channeling part of the show... Damn Rum! hc
All in all i liked the car. I woulda liked it lower in the front but i don't think it really could have. I didn't like the screen in front of the rad but i guess that's a dirt trakin thing.
Man I cannot believe how Jesse kept his cool during the show. I'm sorry if that guy is a friend of some of you guy's but you don't start ****tin' in somebody elses yard. When I'm in somebody elses place I keep my mouth shut and listen then ask questions when needed or make suggestions, not bark orders and make descions for them. I'm surprised that they didn't buy rebuilt or brand new carbs for the trips. I thought that was a cool build. Maybe the inflated prices they listed will keep alot of people away. later shawn PS. That leather work was out of this world.
Dude, no one informed me to come on the show? Whats up with that? Where did they throw that 4 banger, i want it!
did agnostic front really play as the band for monster garage tonight? (i unfortunately got delayed by a girl in my dorm so i missed it) isn't agnostic front a neo-nazi band? that's interesting.
I liked this build, but the 54 Chevy build was more informative IMHO. I know they edit these programs to be what they want them to be. That being said,that guy still gave them plenty of ***hole moments to edit into some drama.
WTF are you talking about. Like you could do better? I think they did OK with it. If the ***hat would have worked half as much as he talked they might have gotten it done early.
isn't agnostic front a neo-nazi band? that's interesting.[/QUOTE] umm im preety sure there not nazi's just good old school new york tuff guy ******** at its best dont they sing the song about 64oz. or is that 25 to life? any way that guy was a tool,the puppy died and it ****s i still dig the car non the less. it needs a "bleedsweep" i didnt like how they did the kick up but ive nevre done one so i cant say its bad. but the 54 was cooler. but o well **** happens. its just tv ..better then watching american idol right
I liked the car ,but the motor and trans ugggghh NO. That grill needed to go to. Can't beleive that they didn't box the frame.
I liked the car. The show could've been more informative but they spent to much time on the ***hat with an at***ude from Boston. One ****tard does not a good TV show make. They shoulda pitched him. I liked the hell out of that chop.
That show was lame. Just another American Chopper style soap opera. Big deal, they chopped the top on a cherry tudor. JJ asked the guys if they knew what they were doing but we don't know if they did or not. They knew how to mount a crate motor. They knew how to bolt a junkyard gas tank under the back window. They mounted a billet car radiator because that's the brand he uses. We didn't see the channel job, the ch***is mods, front suspension, what they did for brakes, pedals, master cylinder, shifter, steering box.... But we got to see them help an old fart make himself look like a fool. And THAT'S great TV. JJ should stick to mulchers or choppers.
does ANYTHING please you guys???? fer christ sakes!!(ive always wanted to say that,hehe) **** off ARMCHAIR BUILDERS! this thread is CLOSED! hhaha i didnt watch the show,,but id rather be doing what ever the **** they did than be sitting on the computer *****ing because the put a chevy engine in it or whatever,,,****
The pup died during surgery on it's gimp leg. And Agnostic Front isn't racist, they're made up of white and hispanic dudes.
