Monster Garage: 1954 Chevy

so I just saw a video of the monster garage episode of the '54 chevy they did with all the "famous" builders. I never saw the show and just now found a quick video of it finished on youtube...I did a search but found no info on this car

so I'm wondering if anyone has any pics?
where's the car now?
how much did they section, chop, channel?
what type of '54 chevy did they start out with?
any build details would be appreciated

planning for a future project and liked that car a lot

 

54 chevy 210(i think), sectioned 4 inches, chopped 4 in the front and maybe 5 in the back, Jesse still has it and there are a few pics of it on 50chevy.com

 

If memory serves me correctly they cut it down a total of 12 inches. Jessie still has the car and it was a 210 post they started with.

 

damn at the same time.

 

That was one of the best shows. I may have a '53 Belair next week.

 

Full episode can be seen here:

Found these hope it helps

 

That was the best car show I ever saw. Man what a shop full of talent.
P.S. Wasn't that the episode when Norm Grabowski had to go to the emergency room ?

 

i just want to know why that car does not get out more , that thing is the meca 54 in my opinion, the bar that they all should be measured by. i am glad jesse still has that car it would be bitchin to see that thing at the roundup next year , come on jesse.

 

it needs Packard tail lights...

 

this car made me a fan of sectioning. most of the sectioning stuff i had seen before was on "goofy" east coast style cars. this cemented for me that sectioning does have a place in the kustom world.

It must have been quite a build to have all those names and builders helping out. talk about a whos who of fabricators.

 

If they could make a show like that without all the b.s. drama I would love it. I seem to remember Jesse mentioning something like doing a "Norm Abrams" type of fab show. That would be awesome but I realize it would be a pretty small fan base. Oh well, a guy can dream...

 

added to favorites. thanks

 

are you sure? it was at Starbirds earlier this year with a full display behind it, was it out on loan?

 

That was a great episode and was awesome to see all of that history and talent together on the build

 

Great episode, but my favorite was the Model A sedan build. Except I wanted to kill the idiot faking the heart attack.

 

Jesse still has it. The de rosa's did all the body work and whatnot, they live a town away from me. =]

 

One of his best shows and love the 54. I quit watching Monster Garage after Jesse crushed the cherry Anglia.

 

I quit watching after the hot air balloon Suziki,,,,,,,, I hope you are kidding on the Anglia

 

I'd watch that. It would be interesting and educational to spend an hour long show just showing the world what one machine can do.

 

Just watched it again!thanks for the link I love that car!

 

that was the one.........

favorite episode as well, that car is bitchen


skull

 

im not a chevy guy but that is hands down one of my favorite cars of all time

 

one of the reasons i started building.

 

Simply Inspiration!!!

 

I Love this Fucker.....

Stars Aligned to build it.....

Plan on taking it to the grave with me..



I agree I need to get it out and about so others can enjoy it....

 

Dug the hell out of this build...car is tits

get all swimmy headed.....
