One of the few PMR episodes I have seen. I remember them folding that decent press bumper in half and dumping it in the trash. *sigh*
I agree with the above comment. Considering the buckets of bondo they slathered into the rockers I am surprised that chunks have not fallen out already.

It blows me away to this day that they had no problem filming and showing the world the half ass work they were doing.

Didn't they also screw strips of aluminum into the drip rails then covered them with Bondo? Been awhile since I have seen the episode and can't bring myself to watch it again.
I will admit I wish I had the money to buy it and have it blasted, then build it correct.

I think they pop riveted mesh over the rusty rockers and bondo'd over it. It makes me wonder if MTV told them to make it work on as little as humanly possible or if they really thought they were doing good work.
