Derek Bieri of Vice Grip Garage was kind enough to invite me onto his new Motor Trend TV show called Roadworthy Rescues to help with a 1928 Ford Model A that had been sitting for 60 years. We had just 5 days to get it running, driving, and looking respectable so that we could check out some historic Detroit landmarks like the Ford Highland Park plant (where most of the 15 million Model T's were made) and the Woodward Dream Cruise on famous Woodward Avenue. The Model A was in worse shape than we thought, can we do it? Here is what it was like behind the scenes filming that epic episode of Roadworthy Rescues, Season 1, episode 7, "Motown Model A". Roadworthy Rescues airs Tuesday nights at 10, or available any time on MotorTrend On Demand- [ Ссылка ]
Thank you to Derek Bieri and Motor Trend for this amazing opportunity! Thank you to Michelle Turczyn, Christine Dang, Sandon Voelker, Matthew Thompson, Sean Winograd, Brad Bass, and David Silberman. Also thank you to Dennis at MC3. Sorry Derek and I ruined your Harbor Freight shop vac!
For those wondering, there was nothing made up or faked, this is really what happened. Derek Bieri is exactly the same off camera as he is on camera. Absolutely no ego or attitude, just a super nice, down to earth fella who is ultra supportive of his friends and family. And, Derek really knows his stuff!! Don't be fooled by the humbleness, he is a top notch mechanic!
