Monster Garage on Discovery Channel

Did anyone catch this show on Sunday and Monday nites? I saw them all and they were terrific.

Monster Garage is gonna be a series coming this fall and so far they've completed 4 episodes which were shown the last two nights.

Jesse James of West Coast Choppers is the main dude who assembles a team of fabricators, mechanics, and designers who convert plain ol' cars into crazy machines.

If you missed it, Discovery will show them again on 6/30 at 4PM ET and PT. Check out Monster Garage and Jesse James at http://dsc.discovery.com/fansites/mo...tergarage.html And don't forget to set your VCR.

I have watched a few of em'. Your right, they are fantastic shows. I also like Junkyard Wars, but Monster Garage gets the nod for having professional people building the machines.

I sure would like to get my hands on the Mac Tool chest!

Yeah, I saw them. Pretty cool to watch. Did you see Motorcycle Maina 2? Damn, Jesse has some pretty sweet bikes.

Actually, I thought the show was cool, but the way they put them on back to back across two nights was a bit much.... then again, I did watch all four of them! I would like to know how that paint guy gets the paint down on these cars overnight and has 'em ready for the next day....either a miracle of television, or they make a point of not touching the paint in the "race" the next day. Guess who wins every time????

Question Wondering....

I think they blew the budget on the bug. First how much was the AB foam. Second what about the tires for the new wheels. Oh well I still like it

Cool show but Jesse didn't do much fabricating except on the bug. He is one of the best metal benders in the states
