So I was watching SpikeTV today and their new show Muscle Cars came on. Its a wrenching show, they work on cars and engines and tell you about muscle cars and such. Well guess what their first project car will be. One of the replica challengers in 2 Fast 2 Furious and they are going to put in a MP 528 hemi crate engine into it, 4 link rear, and air ride suspension.

They have a website www.musclecartelevision.com but the times aren't listed yet. They were on this morning (Sunday) at 11:00 Central Time USA. The Challenger was quite trashed. Lots of rust around the lower windshield and the rear subframe is trashed.

This looks to be a pretty good show. They have the body guy from a top end shop (Rad Rides by Troy) as their bodyman. This week they set it up on a frame jig and replaced the right rear lower quarter. They even had a short segment on the build plate! First time I've ever seen that on a TV show.
