Anybody watch this show.
It'* like Extreme Home Make Over meets Overhaulin with a NASCAR twist. Each week they help a deserving car owner do some much needed repairs to ther vehicle. It'* hosted by Rusty Wallace and Shannon WIseman and they have a differnet Nascar Driver each week.
I recorded the one that was on this weekend and wathced it this morning.
The guy was a lifegaurd in Daytona and the car was an 89 Bonneville SE. Was very cool. Don't worry, they didn't rice it out or anthing, they actually did a great job.
Here'* a link to the show

Want to try to figure out how to contact the guy who they did the car for and see about getting him on the Club

That was awesome, great find Tallbump Pope Mobile

He'* in the Daytona area, 'Andy Thomas', seems like a popular life guard shouldnt be too hard to find?

He'* got a whole new suspension, brakes, front end, wheels, paint, interior.
But I noticed nothing to the engine and tranny but regular service
And no sound upgrade either.

Hello all.
FIrst off, I love the show. It has many of my favorites things, Nascar, automobiles, and people doing nice things for nice people.
I have to say I particularly enjoyed the one that aired this weekend with the lifegaurd in Daytona. I myself own a Bonnveille and am an active member on a web-site/forum dedicated to all Bonneville lovers. This is not some silly childish thing, but is a very informative resource.
Anyway, I was wondering if perhaps someone from the show could forward along this information to the guy they did the car for (Andy?)
Here'* a link to our site
http://www.bonnevilleclub.com/forum/index.php

Please pass this along as I think he would find this site very useful and we would love to have him. Just so he knows, my screen name on the BonnevilleClub.com is tallbump.
Thanks again for a great show.

Brian Cabaday

Yeah, it is. I would love to have that. Maybe if he checks in someone can talk him into selling.

I can't think of anyone right off of the top of my head that would want them. I was talking about the summers

Very cool show, I really like the fact that they left the spirit of the car intact! Brian, very nice e-mail, it would be really great to have him as a member.
