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

in case some of you want to check it out,we're gonna be on the history channel wednesday night july 6th and july 10th.
its an all new series called "automaniac's" which is hosted by a 275LB. gigantic meat head named bill goldberg (a pro WWF wrestler,millionare,and automobile collector). the shows have been pretty good and actually informative.
next weeks episode will be named a "history of hot rodding" which included us. last month we finished the filming at the legendary pomona drag strip. marky got to do a semi run down the strip in his PPE,and jeff "flem" vodden got to run his deuce 3 window as well.in addition to the drag strip scenes there were lots of filming in historic riverside with us driving in an old park, driving over and under old bridges,driving through old city nieghborhoods,and hangin out in our hot rod garages.we talked about the history of the club,squeak bell's initiations,and briefly talked about hot rod pioneers from the 40's-60's.
i hope it turns out cool.

 

thanks for the heads up. I'll be lookin' for it.

 

That sounds cool...I just sent Squeak the deposit for one of them Kiwi deuce frames. I'll be sure to watch!

 

Cool...is anyone gonna do the DVD thingy...the UK version of the history channels tends to be bloody dull

I remember a thread a year or so ago where people were debating what the PPE would run or if it would ever make it down the track...

So... did he ever make a full quarter mile pass in that thing?

 

Okay, i'm stupid.What's PPE?

The show sounds cool, I try to catch it.Jim.

 

Good Gawd Almighty!!!

 

he didn't make a complete full pass but definately got the feel of things.it was the very first time so he got on it,smoked the tires and got it a little sideways,let off,got on it again then let off,and got on it again. he was all smiles when it was all over. as for the dvd's, i'm sure the history channel will offer them for sale.

 

Thanks for the heads up I will have to check the local listings.

 

I'm giddy with anticipation. Wait....it's just the heat. Can't wait.

 

I am not familiar with the american date format, will it be released august 12 or december 8?

Axle, Thanks for the Heads-Up, I plugged it into to TVO so I won't miss it.

Is the PPE a shortened sedan or a 5 winder with the rear cut off...I have always wonder this....Jamie

 

I believe it is 5 window with the rear cut off, looks like it anyway.
