Monster Garage (2002) s01e06 Episode Script
Golf-Ball Collector
A monster garage recipe fit for a beast.
Take one basket of free-range
truffles, the white ones.
One head of lettuce, gripped, and ripped.
A torture one right tomato.
Put a mean slice to one cucumber.
Add hot temper.
The world's on the roof.
In flame vein.
Dinner is served in the monster garage.
Join us now as Jesse and
his gang of never-canics.
Rip, rind, and burn.
Transforming ordinary street vehicles into
monster machines in the monster garage.
This week's challenge.
Take a 1984 Porsche 944
and transform it into
the world's fastest
golf ball range picker.
The rules.
When built, the monster machine
must appear to be stuck.
The team could spend no more
than 3,000 greenbacks for parts.
Jesse and his crew have
seven days in nights.
On the first day, they designed.
For the next five, they build.
On the seventh day, they race.
If successful, each team member takes
home a $3,400 set of meck tools.
And the clock starts now.
Disiginated driver Jesse James delivers
the Porsche to the monster playpad.
Fast on his heels is his
hands-selected design team.
Jesse has called upon their
talents to make monster
modifications to this jewel
of German engineering.
Hi, guys.
This is it.
We're going to make a Porsche 944
into the ultimate golf ball collector.
Jesse James, a direct descendant of
the legendary outlaw of the open range,
is a renowned and revered hero
in the world of custom choppers.
But today, he steps into
the shoes of the underdog.
The un-sung hero of the driving range.
The sitting duck known as the
Change ball picker guy.
You're like that little kid at school.
It gets picked on all times.
It just rings.
You're like, it's like inside of a bell.
You just can't get used to it.
It'd be nice once to fire back.
Mac Gillum knows a thing or two
about picking up golf balls.
He builds hand-crafted range
pickers for a living at his company.
Different designs.
I like to tweak things.
If I like to do things, you'd
see if they could be done.
It will roll.
Pick up a golf ball.
You have a set of fingers at seven.
Between your disc assembly, on the
ball rolls, you'll hit the fingers.
You check it down to a basket system.
The normal ball picker speeds
around five to eight miles an hour.
But at that speed, the range pickers and
easy target for any
himrod with a nine iron.
Our picker will have to move faster.
We plan on doing this.
Maybe 50 or 60 miles an hour.
Pete Pepe commands the pencil.
As a creative designer
for Disney animation,
his ideas are anything but Mickey Mouse.
I just think the skill of basically
just trying to think outside of the box.
You're basically making something that is
a simple design into
something that's cool.
Golf is never going to be
cool as far as I'm concerned.
You've got remember golfers
nowadays are construction workers.
They're motorcycle
builders, car builders.
We don't wear a knickers anymore.
I don't wear a knickers.
I don't wear a knickers.
Sissy.
I wouldn't want to stand in front
of Tiger Woods hitting the golf ball
150 yards.
Because I've seen them drive it through
three quarter inch by wood before.
It's three quarter inch by wood.
No way.
Absolutely.
Maybe three quarter inch in hard board.
I think the pickers of
a pretty basic design.
And we probably shouldn't
screw with that, you know.
This particular Porsche has a
very large area in the back of it,
which gives us plenty of room.
I think in the back side
we'll have to get quite a
bit of cutting for it to
accept it on our eighth.
Fitting the Porsche with a
picker should be easy enough.
But Jesse wants to up the ante.
Forget the collecting part.
It's the launching of back part.
It's got to be like a weapon.
Not only will our picker
dodge the golfers shots,
it will pick up their
balls and return fire.
I think we should go wing
the passenger side door.
We want that element of surprise.
So that thing opens up.
Also our can will be completely hidden
till we decide to mount the door up.
Yeah, killer everybody.
Definitely got to put
a loud exhaust on it.
Oh absolutely.
I think we got the basic design down.
I think the problems are
is figuring out the feeds.
You know, basically feeding
the balls to each can.
I got enough here for I can do it.
Jesse calls the design day early.
Tea time tomorrow is 7 a.m.
He'd rather rest up than
worry about the details.
Here's the plan.
They'll build a mechanism that will
pluck the balls into the trunk.
It transport them to a gun
hidden behind a gall wing door.
I think I just isn't owed to all those
poor golf picker guys driving these things.
I think that they're
finally get the revenge.
Day 2, 7 a.m.
Jesse leads the built team troopers onto
the battlefield of the monster's launch.
Philadelphia boy Jay Squarlow is a
bike mechanic with a hot rod passion.
Custom car creator Eric Scarlett
hails from Ventura, California.
Wendy Schmidt from Milwaukee, Wisconsin
brings her animatronics
training to the table.
Alice Anderson, custom car
builder from Temecula, California.
And our ace in the hole designer
Matt Gillum stays on for the build.
Our outlaw wasted no time
in laying down the law.
No screwing around.
To me, this isn't just work.
So we're here to work and do a job.
You know, I want this thing to get done.
And that's it.
You guys got to keep
it simple and keep it.
So you're not back peddling fixing stuff.
There's no room for air in five days.
Before they create, they have to destroy.
The crew yanks, holes,
crafts and prize to make
room for the golf ball
collector and cannon.
Coming down.
This is the bonfire.
Take the car that was perfectly
good and just destroying it.
We're going to turn this
over to our mark down here.
George Bears, much to
garage greens keeper.
Green box that is.
This is the change between the
car, a whopping seven cents.
You think of the Porsche
we would have found.
A little more.
He's pulling stuff.
Meanwhile for Master Chef Jesse James,
it's feasting time at Shea Monster.
With plasma cutter in hand, he trims the
excess metal like the
fat on a slab of meat.
The exhaust must go.
And the back end too.
Anyone for Porsche Flambe?
Quickly the doors removed so it
can be modified golf wing style.
Shredded door, taking
some of the weight off the
door itself so we can
make it a little lighter.
Jay and Alex team up to
make the golf wing door fly.
Making it flat requires reframing.
We have to reinforce all
of this channel right here.
So that it can take
the weight of the door.
I'm a custom car builder.
Little custom cars,
custom air suspension.
For Alex, building killer custom
cars is all in the details.
Kenwood touchscreen 23 inch neighbors.
For firestone 317 compressors.
The golf ball cannon is the
hot topic for discussion.
I wanted to look like
it's raining golf balls.
Jesse thinks this simple tube conveyor
from Max Shop will do the trick.
This is what I'm thinking like a
supercharged something like this.
So when we feed the balls out of the
basket into one tube and then out.
Alex has another idea.
And Derek agrees.
Just keep shooting them out.
Air power is commonplace
in the custom car world.
That ball is going to haul.
That ball is going to go.
You three need to work
on getting the picker in
there with the lever to go
up and down and a basket.
Mack heads to his shop
where he scavenges for parts
for the picker and gives
himself a monster deal.
Mack returns with picker parts.
This is a drum assembling
for a ball picker.
Once it's assembled, the question arises.
How do you mount a picker to a Porsche?
And we use an arm from right
here from the driver's seat.
Pull it back and it just drop right down.
Okay. Now you want my input.
Okay.
Let's build this here. So
we clear on both sides.
Then we go in here and we weld the swivel
bar that comes right
straight across here.
And it goes just like this and just
like this and swivel off of here.
Before Mack made golf ball pickers,
his life was on a faster track.
Mack was a drag race or back in the 60s.
Both my goal is to go
as fast as you can go.
I got into it because
like I said, you go up on
a farm or a ranch, drive
them farm all tractors.
Restored race, damn
slackers in the field.
All right. So you just kind of
go up one step through the next.
We took an old roadster and made it
as the lightest we could make it.
As strong as we could make it.
And goes fast as humanly possible.
We really like it. He has the freight
train doing about 90 miles out.
Sometimes they were nuts.
It would have absolutely have to agree.
We got a little bit of your door.
We played this right here.
And the hinge goes right there.
The monster crew cleaned up on day two.
Taring into and setting
up the task to be tackles.
But nothing has been installed and
the gun is a big question mark.
Once to garage factory.
The contact time between
it golf ball and a
club is one half of one
thousand of a second.
Day three 6 a.m.
Before the first sip of coffee,
Mac lays out the goals for the day.
Let's see if we can get
it done together today.
Let's see if we can
fire a golf ball today.
I don't hear how.
Then that kind of lets
everybody's brain rest.
Then won't the free of us.
Make our test on this sucker to make
sure we can get it to their gun. All right.
Alex and Eric are on gun duty.
They need valves, fittings, and air
cylinders to rig up the air cannon.
But bad blood over where to get
the parts triggers a shootout.
Eric shoots first.
I think Alex has had a problem
with one of my companies.
But I think it's all personal.
They burned me.
I don't want to give them any
kind of any kind of foot up.
I'm not going to do.
I don't want to do anything for them.
Well, you agreed yesterday
that I wouldn't go
through who you didn't
want me to go through.
If you didn't go through
who I want to go through.
I don't want to do you got to
burn in burning's business.
This is perfect.
That's it.
This is the job meaning.
This is what you want
me to help somebody out.
That burned me.
That's the sure asking me to do.
In the competitive role
of custom car building,
Loyalty's could be fierce.
Just get it from somebody else.
That's simple.
I don't want to get
it from somebody else.
That's what you're saying.
You're saying that you want, you
only went and deal it your way.
I'm not doing my way.
You're doing the door now, right?
No, we're going to do the door
or go out something, do it.
Hey, well, wait a minute.
Oh, my face.
Come on, relax a little bit.
If it had gotten much longer, you'd
have found me crawling in my truck
and go home, because I don't
need to put up with it.
I'm too old.
Remember, I had to be in my voice.
Both my sons used to work for me.
They'd go out the
parking lot, fist fight.
It'd be over in five minutes.
They'd walk back in a shop
and go back to work again.
Instead of going to the parent company,
he wants to go to the distributor.
I don't know about the whole
arguing and fighting crap.
We're all going for a common goal.
We're fighting against
this, not each other.
Just want to get started.
Well, we can get the parts
from a dozen other places.
And that's what I'm saying.
Get them from anywhere with those people.
If he had a problem with
people that I want to get from,
so let's go to the parent company.
Let's go to anybody.
It was by the parts.
But the values are a
couple of 30, $40 each.
You know?
It's the one in the back.
I don't know.
If you don't want to talk about
it, he just wants to get mad.
Alex orders the parts from a third party.
We're doing an air cannon.
We need some valves immediately.
That sounds fine.
In the aftermath of the
altercation, the team presses on.
But Eric is a wall.
Alex and Jake, grab hold of the gall wing
and work on the hinge.
Should we work?
It's just like we knew
what we were doing almost.
All right.
All right.
After acing the hinge, Jay and Alex
take a pint-size victory lap.
The balls need to travel from
the trunk to the front seat.
Mac and Wendy test to see if
the picker will throw the balls
forward enough to feed the gun.
Don't think so.
Don't think we can get up.
The balls don't lie as far
as we thought they might.
We thought maybe before we could
just fly them to that area,
but it looks like we're going to
have to carry them to that area.
The balls like to the gun was no gimme,
time to change their approach.
It's been two hours in no sign of Eric.
Meanwhile, Mac is taking another
swing at using his tube conveyor
in the car.
It didn't work as a weapon,
but he thinks he can use it
to transport the golf
balls forward to the gun.
I need to get 18 inches.
10 here.
And right now, I'm 16.
But I need to get it in here and
up and up to get off the ground.
Space is an issue, but
Jay has this illusion.
OK, wait a minute, wait
a minute, wait a minute.
This motor doesn't need to
be right next to this drive
if we had a longer chain.
So I'm going to run
down to Jack's bicycles
and grab some chain and some sprockets.
So we can move the motor
behind the seat out of the way.
Jay hits the road.
Things keep changing.
So I kind of like to see
finalize plans to go with it,
but it's tough, but I'm
just throwing it with it.
That's enough in the boat, come up.
Jay's swallow is a bicycle
mechanic and builder
of seriously cool custom rides.
But when I have my choice,
this is what I'd be doing
as build in bikes and with this,
I want my name on something
that I can show off and
say, and be proud of.
But pushing the limits of pedal power
is just one of his passions.
A greater force brought him west.
If you're an orange,
you can go to Florida,
you're in your cheese,
you move to Wisconsin,
you're in the hot rods,
you moved to California.
So I picked up, moved 3,000
miles to be around the car scene.
And I guess here I am doing
it, and it's pretty cool.
As Jay rates the bike shop,
pushing again on foot,
Mac and Wendy do some downsizing.
They cut and they cram it,
but it still won't fit.
It's just a bit.
As the work continues, Georgia
arrives with a gift for Alex and Jay,
a brand-spanking new actuator.
Thank you, actuator. There's 350 bucks.
Make sure that when you put it up there,
you don't have to break
it, cut it, or move it.
Be in, please.
Linear actuator, an electric
motor that makes stuff move.
We're going to want to put
a towel on here like this,
and then this is going to
be down here like this.
I don't think that's going
to be enough leverage.
If we go that high on the door,
we're going to have to go.
We're going to have to
mount it out of here.
Well, we can make the same fall.
We don't think about this.
It's a heavy door.
We got to use leverage.
But even with the actuator,
the gall wing isn't
an open and shot case.
Alex and Jay can't figure
out where to mount the motor.
While the crew has
assumed Eric is sulking,
he's actually been
thinking about the gun.
With supplies in hand,
he returns to the shop.
All right, we got us a drill
bit, and some pipe to a compound.
It's right here. It's like a lipstick.
Just take your feeding in there.
This kind of pressure is
nothing new for Eric Scarlett.
As a custom shop owner, he faces
difficult deadlines on a regular basis.
For a living, I build
this custom street rod,
motorcycles, you name it.
I do full fabrication
work for about 10 years.
This has everything. This is
your ultimate sport truck.
What you call it.
Every detail is a testament
to his passion for his work.
Digital control units all the way around.
DVD navigational.
This vehicle is buck nutty.
This is it.
This is all I do.
I don't play cards.
I don't do anything.
I just build cards on my
own and on my spare time.
In a spray of sparks,
the loose cannon has
started building his gun.
These are going to be the three
main barrels for this gun.
A one-man firearm
fabricating mission begins.
Once it's done, I'll get it all well,
didn't put an air fitting in
there and see what we can go from.
Rolls may look close to the side's office
and sheet metal when we get around to it.
When this clicks open and
has all the air behind it,
it's going to shoot one of them out.
As Erick's cannon takes shape,
the gall wing still ain't flapping.
Maybe we need to not use that actuator.
There's got to be something else.
It's just not going to be as
easy as we thought I think.
This is a hard deal.
Going in the door.
There's something really
simple we're missing.
I know.
We need a fresh inside.
Yeah.
We need somebody who knows what it takes.
I just can't see them in
my mind to get it to work.
Day three was a complete choke.
Squabbling and indecision has kept
the team in the rough all round.
If this keeps up, they might
as well hit the clubhouse.
Monster Garage Factoid.
For an average par round of golf,
the ball is in contact
with the club face,
a total of approximately
36,000 of a second,
or less than the blink of an eye.
It's a new day.
Same old battle.
Team versus clock.
A quick second to ponder their Porsche.
It was an easy one.
Well, if it was easy, it would be cool.
There to do list has just one word on it.
Everything.
The golfing door still needs power to
open for the gun that's still in pieces,
which will shoot out golf ball
spread to it from a collecting system
that still doesn't exist.
In other words, time to go to work.
Let's go straight back
the world. Let's go.
Let's go straight back the world.
We need to tie this.
Jesse helps Jay and Alex
out of their door jam.
Man, Alex there in the door.
For probably half a day.
No, you had to just do a day, right?
Here was some plates.
So pushes right here straight out.
It opens it up.
Press that eyes, came
in, so do this and this.
Finally, the electric power
arm finds its proper place.
OK, ready?
And the fledgling gall wing takes flight.
We have a door opening and closing.
Yes, yes, sir.
We are good to go.
We've got a door.
Getting momentum.
Back tackles the collector.
Is this sitting in the
garage or the attic?
Oh, sir.
He's hoping that the conveyor
that didn't work in his garage
might work in this one.
I've built it for a new conveyor
that I'm messing around with.
But I decided to change
something else on it
but there's over an corner.
Oh, yeah.
An important piece of the
puzzle has been filled in.
The picker will lift the
golf balls off the grass
and feed them to the conveyor.
The conveyor will feed them to a basket.
The basket will feed the gun.
Oh, yeah.
The gun.
Don't ask.
Give me a couple of golf balls.
I just want to be in questions,
so I want to try this out.
So you got one, Jan?
Any more pressure?
Bad news.
The last thing this guy
needs is more pressure.
No!
There we go.
We got it now.
With Max Conveyor in place,
he and Wendy Press-On
building a steel cage for the
golf ball transport system.
Using hand power, they put
the conveyor to the test.
I've never worked with a lady before.
It's probably taking more getting used to
than anything I've ever done in my life.
But this lady can do a lot of things.
She can well, she can cut, she
can drill, she can, you know?
She must have been one hell of a top boy.
I grew up in a male world with
brothers, and I guess I was always told
he can't do that because of the girl.
Wendy Schmidt is used
to playing in an all-boy
club.
I do animatronics.
I like things to move, and I
like to know how things work.
I do mechanics, and electronics.
Other people design the puppet,
and what it's going to look like.
And they tell me how much space I
have, and what they want it to do.
And it's my job to make it do that.
A grease-dane drag racer
in a briny puppeteer
equals dynamic dulo
in the monster garage.
The odd couple start
building a collecting pan
to bridge the gap between
picker and conveyor.
The team breaks for lunch, but
Jesse never lets up on Mac.
Can you say it's another golf ball?
We'll go through a three or two
or three quarter inch plywood.
You bet you shit it up.
What's your definition of plywood?
What if I can grab a golf ball for it?
After filing the barrels free of
obstruction, Eric is ready to test the gun.
In a fuselage of flying
spheres, Eric finds redemption.
Works there on the ground. Let's see
it in the car finish, done working.
A couple of days in this place
will have your car looking
cooler, but will it start?
We want to fire up the car today
and make sure we didn't cut through
just connect anything that
we need to make it run.
Is it leaking again?
I don't hear the fuel pump running.
The team is tired. The Porsche's dead.
If this day was a turkey,
you can stick a fork in
it because it's done.
Day five starts with a
monster garage wake up.
There's no more ifiness, right?
Everything's dialed. Everybody
stay focused and just keep blasting
like we have the last three days.
The team helps the Porsche
get rid of a monster hangover.
The car wouldn't start because
the fuel wouldn't flow.
Alex has the answer.
I have the monster fuel pump
for the monster Porsche.
It's all the pressure.
That sounds good.
Who's your daddy now, huh?
That's your height.
Your pump was a problem.
We had a dead fuel pump.
It's like 44 seconds.
Yes, right.
Why open-handed?
It's very loud.
It's loud.
The monsters are supposed to make noise.
Whether it's like the creature of the
black lagoon or King Kong or Godzilla.
They all made noise. They're all loud.
And this one.
In any garage, bad ideas
help drive the good ones.
The motor from Mac and Jesse's first ball
-shutler is used to power
Mac's conveyor system.
Yeah.
Okay, Matt, can we take back half
the bad things you said about, yeah?
Oh, okay. You need to first one.
Okay.
If you need a golf ball move
from point A to point B,
Matt, Matt, is the man
that you should go.
Whoa!
That's the new problem.
The eager balls are bunching
up at the conveyor's entrance.
No need to panic.
Who's panic?
I'm not panic.
Are you panicing?
Hell no.
If it looks like panic
and it smells like panic,
I'm a kid around a jam, right?
A small boxbar, restores order,
forcing the balls to ascend two
by two into range picker heaven.
They're trying to make a jam.
It's not jam.
That's what we want.
I love it.
Right.
Matt cuts down and installs a
length of hollow steel beam.
The final link between picker and gun.
Golf balls go in, but what comes
out is nothing but hard white ammo.
Eric puts the final
touches on the cannons.
And the transformation from Porsche
to Panzer is nearly complete.
I think that looks pretty cool.
I feel sorry for whoever gets it.
Former foes now best of friends.
It's just too darn hard to stay
angry when you're having so much fun.
The lone gunman returns ready to
put his shooter to the big test.
General Jesse sizes up as secret weapon.
It's not scary in that though.
He pulls out one of his own demons.
A figure capable of making millions
who look upon it, scared silly.
Wow.
The clowns are scary.
He's scared of clowns.
They are evil.
They're face.
You know, that whole,
like, tears and big hair.
He's jumping at kids.
I did it about 20 hundred times.
It's been a big day under the big tent.
It started with a start.
And here's how it went.
It got louder and weirder.
SHADASHI
But fun, the Porsche got a
picker that turned into a gun.
It's time to stop rhyming.
Cloud time is done.
Coming up, we'll just
see back a hole in one,
or we'll be just another
tiger, lost in the woods.
Oh, so much, so much, so much, so much.
Day six, the team has played
the monster course well,
but this is the last day in the garage.
And it's a long, part five.
Before their round is done, they
still have a lot left to do.
Jay hits first.
He needs to tie the picker
into the front of the car
where it can be lowered
and lifted by the driver.
You know, we can raise this
thing a number of different ways.
He's using me.
Left or in a cable.
Here is one ugly ship lever.
It looks like a freakin'
bicycle mechanic.
Well, this is a good old way.
A bicycle mechanic did
well with the other.
Now pull up that on the side.
Keep going.
Uh, okay.
I got another four inches of lead.
Jay's landed in a trap.
And a crab.
His makeshift picker shifter
doesn't lift it high enough.
Any hacker worth his double boggy's nose.
You never drive with a putter.
Jay's got more than one
club in his bag of tricks.
The arm for the power window
becomes a slick picker lifter.
And then when we switch right here,
it's going to operate
that so that it goes up.
Cool.
The scrappy bike mechanic
takes a victory lap.
We got time to new all
kinds of stuff, baby.
The garage hums with activity
as a team tweaks and fine tunes
their monster to completion.
No, we got our trigger.
It's the creature comforts.
When he continues to work on the cloud,
she wells the motor to the
back of the cloud head.
Finally, the icing on the cake.
That should do it right there.
With the clowns eyes fixed on the prize,
this monster is ready to roll.
But before they test, there's
still some unfinished business
between Jesse and Mac.
No, but off-ball.
We'll go through the reason we're
going to ride water inch pilot.
You bet your shifter up.
So we're betting him and
I are betting 100 bucks.
Game on 100 greenbacks,
pitching a ride on a golf ball.
The only thing standing
between winning and losing
a three-quarter inch sheet of plywood.
To help settle the score,
we've brought in John Deskala,
the teaching pro at Dominguez Hills
Golf Course in Carson, California.
I've seen it done on television,
but it takes one heck of a swing.
John tees it up, monster
style, the gallery takes cover.
That's one.
Right below that scuff mark.
Right here, right here, right
here, right here, right here, right
here, right here, right here,
right here, right here, right here.
That was right on the same
ramp as the same thing.
Right there, front foot
would match the back.
Good to back.
Good to back.
Good to back.
There you go.
OK, one more.
We could cut the tension
here with the night folks.
It's down to the final shot.
We're here, right underneath.
Three swings, three misses.
The only holes in Mac's wallet.
Good try, son.
Thanks.
Pleasure to do a business with y'all.
And no doubt.
All right, my turn, let me try.
Never had one lessons.
I was just my practice swing.
I'll bet you 100 bucks,
I don't make it through.
Come on, keep your hands still.
Come right around.
Time to put some muscle in it.
I may have to give up this whole
fabrication thing after this.
No more banging and no more
bets, it's time to test.
Jesse takes his newborn
monster out to meet the world.
Next up, the driving range.
Check that, the shooting range.
The juffer from Long Beach looks like
he's ready for some smash mouth golf.
Until I come going to court.
Jesse lays out the objectives.
We wanted to pick up golf balls,
convey it into the basket,
loaded into the gun, and
make sure the gun fires.
And we're cool.
We can paint this sucker
and hand out some tools.
Grass now, we're priming the gas.
My name is Britain's name.
Great ago.
Soon I'm both about 250.
The gun is loaded.
The gall wing is open.
Jesse hits the gas.
Armageddon!
He's right here!
I call that a success.
I've got a win!
I think it's a good
test for our ingenuity.
I think we did a fine job with it.
Considering that not behind the
wheel, I think we did great.
I like it, it's the most weapon-like.
This is what it's all about.
Forget everything else, get in stuff.
We got some Mac tool kits,
and Porsche golf clothes.
Cool.
Good job, I'm going to jump in.
Andy, thank you.
Awesome.
Here it is, bro.
I'm Mac.
Taring to those.
The Porsche pasted its test.
Jesse passed out the tools.
It's Monster Painting Time.
Tom Prood of Damon's motorcycle creations
is the man with the spray can.
It won't be long now before this
blazing beauty burns up the fairway.
Well, Jesse said he wanted to bright.
He's got to wear sunglasses
in the morning on this, baby.
Guys, the country club aren't
going to know what hit him,
when they see him pull it on the grass.
Monster Garage Factoid.
Every year, one out of every two
golfers is injured during play.
The most common injuries include
sunstroke and heart attacks.
Monster Garage.
Ladies and gentlemen,
welcome to another
Monster Garage Challenge.
I'm your host, the big swag with
my partner, Frankie Whiteside.
Frankie, where the hell are we?
El Dorado Park Golf Course in
Long Beach, California Swag.
Tell him why we're here, Frank.
Hey, see that kid out there?
That's why.
Exactly right, we're here for the kid.
Here it is.
The kid in the picker.
He's got a job to do and
we're going to cheer him on.
Oh, hey, that's a rough mark.
Hey, hey, that's not nice.
Hey, the kid's taken a pound in Frankie.
What's he going to do
to the kid, Frankie?
Something like this?
He said something work.
Right to make a contribution.
And this is how he's treated.
They could put him
down and keep him down.
Frankie, I can't watch.
He's a lambing led to the slaughter.
swag.
What's that?
Not what swag?
Oh, you got to be kidding me.
Ken, if you can hear me, just hold
on because help is on the way.
That's right, Frankie.
The calmery is here.
Oh, one man army name, Jesse James.
Frankie, tell the folks at home
what the heck he's driving.
We're looking at a 1984
Porsche 944 with a nifty,
70-style vanway on the back.
Nice touch, Jesse.
This is not your German
father, Porsche Frank.
Looks like Jesse's turn to
the Porsche into a picker.
A range picker.
Look at him, go.
That is without a doubt.
The quickest slickest golf ball
picker the world has ever seen.
It's the lengthness monster.
It's the to-ranged picker.
Move over over and let the
throw from Dolbert take over.
What's he doing, Auschwatt?
He looks like he's shot an epic offer.
Hey, folks, let's listen in.
Now, I've never seen a
bug to make the offer.
We're not so fast.
Hey, you little man, here we are.
Those guys are taking aim.
He's a sitting duck.
Why does any move?
Because the man is cool
under pressure, old pal.
Yes, so come on, fancy pants.
You can go in 80 degrees outside.
He's got a sweater on both.
Come on, my mom can sit in better.
You guys, fix up for you.
Go get it.
You can't hit me.
You can hit me.
The door is popping up.
Jesse's going.
Jesse, James, give him
the Ozzy Osborns to loop.
There's the meanest looking
clown face I've ever seen.
That's no clown.
It's a cannon.
That's no pawns.
It's a tensor.
He's fired out all cylinders.
Jesse is crossing through the
lines and the trooper's scattering.
It's paper time, honey.
Good balls coming out faster, Randy.
That's easy.
I'm under miles an hour.
They're gone.
Check it out, Frank.
Did you see that?
Hey, toss the keys to the kid.
Wow.
For Jesse James, there's no
time for bogies, birdies,
but say, drive in.
There's metal to bird and sparks to fly.
Because the next monster garage
challenge is just around the bend.

Take one basket of free-range
truffles, the white ones.
One head of lettuce, gripped, and ripped.
A torture one right tomato.
Put a mean slice to one cucumber.
Add hot temper.
The world's on the roof.
In flame vein.
Dinner is served in the monster garage.
Join us now as Jesse and
his gang of never-canics.
Rip, rind, and burn.
Transforming ordinary street vehicles into
monster machines in the monster garage.
This week's challenge.
Take a 1984 Porsche 944
and transform it into
the world's fastest
golf ball range picker.
The rules.
When built, the monster machine
must appear to be stuck.
The team could spend no more
than 3,000 greenbacks for parts.
Jesse and his crew have
seven days in nights.
On the first day, they designed.
For the next five, they build.
On the seventh day, they race.
If successful, each team member takes
home a $3,400 set of meck tools.
And the clock starts now.
Disiginated driver Jesse James delivers
the Porsche to the monster playpad.
Fast on his heels is his
hands-selected design team.
Jesse has called upon their
talents to make monster
modifications to this jewel
of German engineering.
Hi, guys.
This is it.
We're going to make a Porsche 944
into the ultimate golf ball collector.
Jesse James, a direct descendant of
the legendary outlaw of the open range,
is a renowned and revered hero
in the world of custom choppers.
But today, he steps into
the shoes of the underdog.
The un-sung hero of the driving range.
The sitting duck known as the
Change ball picker guy.
You're like that little kid at school.
It gets picked on all times.
It just rings.
You're like, it's like inside of a bell.
You just can't get used to it.
It'd be nice once to fire back.
Mac Gillum knows a thing or two
about picking up golf balls.
He builds hand-crafted range
pickers for a living at his company.
Different designs.
I like to tweak things.
If I like to do things, you'd
see if they could be done.
It will roll.
Pick up a golf ball.
You have a set of fingers at seven.
Between your disc assembly, on the
ball rolls, you'll hit the fingers.
You check it down to a basket system.
The normal ball picker speeds
around five to eight miles an hour.
But at that speed, the range pickers and
easy target for any
himrod with a nine iron.
Our picker will have to move faster.
We plan on doing this.
Maybe 50 or 60 miles an hour.
Pete Pepe commands the pencil.
As a creative designer
for Disney animation,
his ideas are anything but Mickey Mouse.
I just think the skill of basically
just trying to think outside of the box.
You're basically making something that is
a simple design into
something that's cool.
Golf is never going to be
cool as far as I'm concerned.
You've got remember golfers
nowadays are construction workers.
They're motorcycle
builders, car builders.
We don't wear a knickers anymore.
I don't wear a knickers.
I don't wear a knickers.
Sissy.
I wouldn't want to stand in front
of Tiger Woods hitting the golf ball
150 yards.
Because I've seen them drive it through
three quarter inch by wood before.
It's three quarter inch by wood.
No way.
Absolutely.
Maybe three quarter inch in hard board.
I think the pickers of
a pretty basic design.
And we probably shouldn't
screw with that, you know.
This particular Porsche has a
very large area in the back of it,
which gives us plenty of room.
I think in the back side
we'll have to get quite a
bit of cutting for it to
accept it on our eighth.
Fitting the Porsche with a
picker should be easy enough.
But Jesse wants to up the ante.
Forget the collecting part.
It's the launching of back part.
It's got to be like a weapon.
Not only will our picker
dodge the golfers shots,
it will pick up their
balls and return fire.
I think we should go wing
the passenger side door.
We want that element of surprise.
So that thing opens up.
Also our can will be completely hidden
till we decide to mount the door up.
Yeah, killer everybody.
Definitely got to put
a loud exhaust on it.
Oh absolutely.
I think we got the basic design down.
I think the problems are
is figuring out the feeds.
You know, basically feeding
the balls to each can.
I got enough here for I can do it.
Jesse calls the design day early.
Tea time tomorrow is 7 a.m.
He'd rather rest up than
worry about the details.
Here's the plan.
They'll build a mechanism that will
pluck the balls into the trunk.
It transport them to a gun
hidden behind a gall wing door.
I think I just isn't owed to all those
poor golf picker guys driving these things.
I think that they're
finally get the revenge.
Day 2, 7 a.m.
Jesse leads the built team troopers onto
the battlefield of the monster's launch.
Philadelphia boy Jay Squarlow is a
bike mechanic with a hot rod passion.
Custom car creator Eric Scarlett
hails from Ventura, California.
Wendy Schmidt from Milwaukee, Wisconsin
brings her animatronics
training to the table.
Alice Anderson, custom car
builder from Temecula, California.
And our ace in the hole designer
Matt Gillum stays on for the build.
Our outlaw wasted no time
in laying down the law.
No screwing around.
To me, this isn't just work.
So we're here to work and do a job.
You know, I want this thing to get done.
And that's it.
You guys got to keep
it simple and keep it.
So you're not back peddling fixing stuff.
There's no room for air in five days.
Before they create, they have to destroy.
The crew yanks, holes,
crafts and prize to make
room for the golf ball
collector and cannon.
Coming down.
This is the bonfire.
Take the car that was perfectly
good and just destroying it.
We're going to turn this
over to our mark down here.
George Bears, much to
garage greens keeper.
Green box that is.
This is the change between the
car, a whopping seven cents.
You think of the Porsche
we would have found.
A little more.
He's pulling stuff.
Meanwhile for Master Chef Jesse James,
it's feasting time at Shea Monster.
With plasma cutter in hand, he trims the
excess metal like the
fat on a slab of meat.
The exhaust must go.
And the back end too.
Anyone for Porsche Flambe?
Quickly the doors removed so it
can be modified golf wing style.
Shredded door, taking
some of the weight off the
door itself so we can
make it a little lighter.
Jay and Alex team up to
make the golf wing door fly.
Making it flat requires reframing.
We have to reinforce all
of this channel right here.
So that it can take
the weight of the door.
I'm a custom car builder.
Little custom cars,
custom air suspension.
For Alex, building killer custom
cars is all in the details.
Kenwood touchscreen 23 inch neighbors.
For firestone 317 compressors.
The golf ball cannon is the
hot topic for discussion.
I wanted to look like
it's raining golf balls.
Jesse thinks this simple tube conveyor
from Max Shop will do the trick.
This is what I'm thinking like a
supercharged something like this.
So when we feed the balls out of the
basket into one tube and then out.
Alex has another idea.
And Derek agrees.
Just keep shooting them out.
Air power is commonplace
in the custom car world.
That ball is going to haul.
That ball is going to go.
You three need to work
on getting the picker in
there with the lever to go
up and down and a basket.
Mack heads to his shop
where he scavenges for parts
for the picker and gives
himself a monster deal.
Mack returns with picker parts.
This is a drum assembling
for a ball picker.
Once it's assembled, the question arises.
How do you mount a picker to a Porsche?
And we use an arm from right
here from the driver's seat.
Pull it back and it just drop right down.
Okay. Now you want my input.
Okay.
Let's build this here. So
we clear on both sides.
Then we go in here and we weld the swivel
bar that comes right
straight across here.
And it goes just like this and just
like this and swivel off of here.
Before Mack made golf ball pickers,
his life was on a faster track.
Mack was a drag race or back in the 60s.
Both my goal is to go
as fast as you can go.
I got into it because
like I said, you go up on
a farm or a ranch, drive
them farm all tractors.
Restored race, damn
slackers in the field.
All right. So you just kind of
go up one step through the next.
We took an old roadster and made it
as the lightest we could make it.
As strong as we could make it.
And goes fast as humanly possible.
We really like it. He has the freight
train doing about 90 miles out.
Sometimes they were nuts.
It would have absolutely have to agree.
We got a little bit of your door.
We played this right here.
And the hinge goes right there.
The monster crew cleaned up on day two.
Taring into and setting
up the task to be tackles.
But nothing has been installed and
the gun is a big question mark.
Once to garage factory.
The contact time between
it golf ball and a
club is one half of one
thousand of a second.
Day three 6 a.m.
Before the first sip of coffee,
Mac lays out the goals for the day.
Let's see if we can get
it done together today.
Let's see if we can
fire a golf ball today.
I don't hear how.
Then that kind of lets
everybody's brain rest.
Then won't the free of us.
Make our test on this sucker to make
sure we can get it to their gun. All right.
Alex and Eric are on gun duty.
They need valves, fittings, and air
cylinders to rig up the air cannon.
But bad blood over where to get
the parts triggers a shootout.
Eric shoots first.
I think Alex has had a problem
with one of my companies.
But I think it's all personal.
They burned me.
I don't want to give them any
kind of any kind of foot up.
I'm not going to do.
I don't want to do anything for them.
Well, you agreed yesterday
that I wouldn't go
through who you didn't
want me to go through.
If you didn't go through
who I want to go through.
I don't want to do you got to
burn in burning's business.
This is perfect.
That's it.
This is the job meaning.
This is what you want
me to help somebody out.
That burned me.
That's the sure asking me to do.
In the competitive role
of custom car building,
Loyalty's could be fierce.
Just get it from somebody else.
That's simple.
I don't want to get
it from somebody else.
That's what you're saying.
You're saying that you want, you
only went and deal it your way.
I'm not doing my way.
You're doing the door now, right?
No, we're going to do the door
or go out something, do it.
Hey, well, wait a minute.
Oh, my face.
Come on, relax a little bit.
If it had gotten much longer, you'd
have found me crawling in my truck
and go home, because I don't
need to put up with it.
I'm too old.
Remember, I had to be in my voice.
Both my sons used to work for me.
They'd go out the
parking lot, fist fight.
It'd be over in five minutes.
They'd walk back in a shop
and go back to work again.
Instead of going to the parent company,
he wants to go to the distributor.
I don't know about the whole
arguing and fighting crap.
We're all going for a common goal.
We're fighting against
this, not each other.
Just want to get started.
Well, we can get the parts
from a dozen other places.
And that's what I'm saying.
Get them from anywhere with those people.
If he had a problem with
people that I want to get from,
so let's go to the parent company.
Let's go to anybody.
It was by the parts.
But the values are a
couple of 30, $40 each.
You know?
It's the one in the back.
I don't know.
If you don't want to talk about
it, he just wants to get mad.
Alex orders the parts from a third party.
We're doing an air cannon.
We need some valves immediately.
That sounds fine.
In the aftermath of the
altercation, the team presses on.
But Eric is a wall.
Alex and Jake, grab hold of the gall wing
and work on the hinge.
Should we work?
It's just like we knew
what we were doing almost.
All right.
All right.
After acing the hinge, Jay and Alex
take a pint-size victory lap.
The balls need to travel from
the trunk to the front seat.
Mac and Wendy test to see if
the picker will throw the balls
forward enough to feed the gun.
Don't think so.
Don't think we can get up.
The balls don't lie as far
as we thought they might.
We thought maybe before we could
just fly them to that area,
but it looks like we're going to
have to carry them to that area.
The balls like to the gun was no gimme,
time to change their approach.
It's been two hours in no sign of Eric.
Meanwhile, Mac is taking another
swing at using his tube conveyor
in the car.
It didn't work as a weapon,
but he thinks he can use it
to transport the golf
balls forward to the gun.
I need to get 18 inches.
10 here.
And right now, I'm 16.
But I need to get it in here and
up and up to get off the ground.
Space is an issue, but
Jay has this illusion.
OK, wait a minute, wait
a minute, wait a minute.
This motor doesn't need to
be right next to this drive
if we had a longer chain.
So I'm going to run
down to Jack's bicycles
and grab some chain and some sprockets.
So we can move the motor
behind the seat out of the way.
Jay hits the road.
Things keep changing.
So I kind of like to see
finalize plans to go with it,
but it's tough, but I'm
just throwing it with it.
That's enough in the boat, come up.
Jay's swallow is a bicycle
mechanic and builder
of seriously cool custom rides.
But when I have my choice,
this is what I'd be doing
as build in bikes and with this,
I want my name on something
that I can show off and
say, and be proud of.
But pushing the limits of pedal power
is just one of his passions.
A greater force brought him west.
If you're an orange,
you can go to Florida,
you're in your cheese,
you move to Wisconsin,
you're in the hot rods,
you moved to California.
So I picked up, moved 3,000
miles to be around the car scene.
And I guess here I am doing
it, and it's pretty cool.
As Jay rates the bike shop,
pushing again on foot,
Mac and Wendy do some downsizing.
They cut and they cram it,
but it still won't fit.
It's just a bit.
As the work continues, Georgia
arrives with a gift for Alex and Jay,
a brand-spanking new actuator.
Thank you, actuator. There's 350 bucks.
Make sure that when you put it up there,
you don't have to break
it, cut it, or move it.
Be in, please.
Linear actuator, an electric
motor that makes stuff move.
We're going to want to put
a towel on here like this,
and then this is going to
be down here like this.
I don't think that's going
to be enough leverage.
If we go that high on the door,
we're going to have to go.
We're going to have to
mount it out of here.
Well, we can make the same fall.
We don't think about this.
It's a heavy door.
We got to use leverage.
But even with the actuator,
the gall wing isn't
an open and shot case.
Alex and Jay can't figure
out where to mount the motor.
While the crew has
assumed Eric is sulking,
he's actually been
thinking about the gun.
With supplies in hand,
he returns to the shop.
All right, we got us a drill
bit, and some pipe to a compound.
It's right here. It's like a lipstick.
Just take your feeding in there.
This kind of pressure is
nothing new for Eric Scarlett.
As a custom shop owner, he faces
difficult deadlines on a regular basis.
For a living, I build
this custom street rod,
motorcycles, you name it.
I do full fabrication
work for about 10 years.
This has everything. This is
your ultimate sport truck.
What you call it.
Every detail is a testament
to his passion for his work.
Digital control units all the way around.
DVD navigational.
This vehicle is buck nutty.
This is it.
This is all I do.
I don't play cards.
I don't do anything.
I just build cards on my
own and on my spare time.
In a spray of sparks,
the loose cannon has
started building his gun.
These are going to be the three
main barrels for this gun.
A one-man firearm
fabricating mission begins.
Once it's done, I'll get it all well,
didn't put an air fitting in
there and see what we can go from.
Rolls may look close to the side's office
and sheet metal when we get around to it.
When this clicks open and
has all the air behind it,
it's going to shoot one of them out.
As Erick's cannon takes shape,
the gall wing still ain't flapping.
Maybe we need to not use that actuator.
There's got to be something else.
It's just not going to be as
easy as we thought I think.
This is a hard deal.
Going in the door.
There's something really
simple we're missing.
I know.
We need a fresh inside.
Yeah.
We need somebody who knows what it takes.
I just can't see them in
my mind to get it to work.
Day three was a complete choke.
Squabbling and indecision has kept
the team in the rough all round.
If this keeps up, they might
as well hit the clubhouse.
Monster Garage Factoid.
For an average par round of golf,
the ball is in contact
with the club face,
a total of approximately
36,000 of a second,
or less than the blink of an eye.
It's a new day.
Same old battle.
Team versus clock.
A quick second to ponder their Porsche.
It was an easy one.
Well, if it was easy, it would be cool.
There to do list has just one word on it.
Everything.
The golfing door still needs power to
open for the gun that's still in pieces,
which will shoot out golf ball
spread to it from a collecting system
that still doesn't exist.
In other words, time to go to work.
Let's go straight back
the world. Let's go.
Let's go straight back the world.
We need to tie this.
Jesse helps Jay and Alex
out of their door jam.
Man, Alex there in the door.
For probably half a day.
No, you had to just do a day, right?
Here was some plates.
So pushes right here straight out.
It opens it up.
Press that eyes, came
in, so do this and this.
Finally, the electric power
arm finds its proper place.
OK, ready?
And the fledgling gall wing takes flight.
We have a door opening and closing.
Yes, yes, sir.
We are good to go.
We've got a door.
Getting momentum.
Back tackles the collector.
Is this sitting in the
garage or the attic?
Oh, sir.
He's hoping that the conveyor
that didn't work in his garage
might work in this one.
I've built it for a new conveyor
that I'm messing around with.
But I decided to change
something else on it
but there's over an corner.
Oh, yeah.
An important piece of the
puzzle has been filled in.
The picker will lift the
golf balls off the grass
and feed them to the conveyor.
The conveyor will feed them to a basket.
The basket will feed the gun.
Oh, yeah.
The gun.
Don't ask.
Give me a couple of golf balls.
I just want to be in questions,
so I want to try this out.
So you got one, Jan?
Any more pressure?
Bad news.
The last thing this guy
needs is more pressure.
No!
There we go.
We got it now.
With Max Conveyor in place,
he and Wendy Press-On
building a steel cage for the
golf ball transport system.
Using hand power, they put
the conveyor to the test.
I've never worked with a lady before.
It's probably taking more getting used to
than anything I've ever done in my life.
But this lady can do a lot of things.
She can well, she can cut, she
can drill, she can, you know?
She must have been one hell of a top boy.
I grew up in a male world with
brothers, and I guess I was always told
he can't do that because of the girl.
Wendy Schmidt is used
to playing in an all-boy
club.
I do animatronics.
I like things to move, and I
like to know how things work.
I do mechanics, and electronics.
Other people design the puppet,
and what it's going to look like.
And they tell me how much space I
have, and what they want it to do.
And it's my job to make it do that.
A grease-dane drag racer
in a briny puppeteer
equals dynamic dulo
in the monster garage.
The odd couple start
building a collecting pan
to bridge the gap between
picker and conveyor.
The team breaks for lunch, but
Jesse never lets up on Mac.
Can you say it's another golf ball?
We'll go through a three or two
or three quarter inch plywood.
You bet you shit it up.
What's your definition of plywood?
What if I can grab a golf ball for it?
After filing the barrels free of
obstruction, Eric is ready to test the gun.
In a fuselage of flying
spheres, Eric finds redemption.
Works there on the ground. Let's see
it in the car finish, done working.
A couple of days in this place
will have your car looking
cooler, but will it start?
We want to fire up the car today
and make sure we didn't cut through
just connect anything that
we need to make it run.
Is it leaking again?
I don't hear the fuel pump running.
The team is tired. The Porsche's dead.
If this day was a turkey,
you can stick a fork in
it because it's done.
Day five starts with a
monster garage wake up.
There's no more ifiness, right?
Everything's dialed. Everybody
stay focused and just keep blasting
like we have the last three days.
The team helps the Porsche
get rid of a monster hangover.
The car wouldn't start because
the fuel wouldn't flow.
Alex has the answer.
I have the monster fuel pump
for the monster Porsche.
It's all the pressure.
That sounds good.
Who's your daddy now, huh?
That's your height.
Your pump was a problem.
We had a dead fuel pump.
It's like 44 seconds.
Yes, right.
Why open-handed?
It's very loud.
It's loud.
The monsters are supposed to make noise.
Whether it's like the creature of the
black lagoon or King Kong or Godzilla.
They all made noise. They're all loud.
And this one.
In any garage, bad ideas
help drive the good ones.
The motor from Mac and Jesse's first ball
-shutler is used to power
Mac's conveyor system.
Yeah.
Okay, Matt, can we take back half
the bad things you said about, yeah?
Oh, okay. You need to first one.
Okay.
If you need a golf ball move
from point A to point B,
Matt, Matt, is the man
that you should go.
Whoa!
That's the new problem.
The eager balls are bunching
up at the conveyor's entrance.
No need to panic.
Who's panic?
I'm not panic.
Are you panicing?
Hell no.
If it looks like panic
and it smells like panic,
I'm a kid around a jam, right?
A small boxbar, restores order,
forcing the balls to ascend two
by two into range picker heaven.
They're trying to make a jam.
It's not jam.
That's what we want.
I love it.
Right.
Matt cuts down and installs a
length of hollow steel beam.
The final link between picker and gun.
Golf balls go in, but what comes
out is nothing but hard white ammo.
Eric puts the final
touches on the cannons.
And the transformation from Porsche
to Panzer is nearly complete.
I think that looks pretty cool.
I feel sorry for whoever gets it.
Former foes now best of friends.
It's just too darn hard to stay
angry when you're having so much fun.
The lone gunman returns ready to
put his shooter to the big test.
General Jesse sizes up as secret weapon.
It's not scary in that though.
He pulls out one of his own demons.
A figure capable of making millions
who look upon it, scared silly.
Wow.
The clowns are scary.
He's scared of clowns.
They are evil.
They're face.
You know, that whole,
like, tears and big hair.
He's jumping at kids.
I did it about 20 hundred times.
It's been a big day under the big tent.
It started with a start.
And here's how it went.
It got louder and weirder.
SHADASHI
But fun, the Porsche got a
picker that turned into a gun.
It's time to stop rhyming.
Cloud time is done.
Coming up, we'll just
see back a hole in one,
or we'll be just another
tiger, lost in the woods.
Oh, so much, so much, so much, so much.
Day six, the team has played
the monster course well,
but this is the last day in the garage.
And it's a long, part five.
Before their round is done, they
still have a lot left to do.
Jay hits first.
He needs to tie the picker
into the front of the car
where it can be lowered
and lifted by the driver.
You know, we can raise this
thing a number of different ways.
He's using me.
Left or in a cable.
Here is one ugly ship lever.
It looks like a freakin'
bicycle mechanic.
Well, this is a good old way.
A bicycle mechanic did
well with the other.
Now pull up that on the side.
Keep going.
Uh, okay.
I got another four inches of lead.
Jay's landed in a trap.
And a crab.
His makeshift picker shifter
doesn't lift it high enough.
Any hacker worth his double boggy's nose.
You never drive with a putter.
Jay's got more than one
club in his bag of tricks.
The arm for the power window
becomes a slick picker lifter.
And then when we switch right here,
it's going to operate
that so that it goes up.
Cool.
The scrappy bike mechanic
takes a victory lap.
We got time to new all
kinds of stuff, baby.
The garage hums with activity
as a team tweaks and fine tunes
their monster to completion.
No, we got our trigger.
It's the creature comforts.
When he continues to work on the cloud,
she wells the motor to the
back of the cloud head.
Finally, the icing on the cake.
That should do it right there.
With the clowns eyes fixed on the prize,
this monster is ready to roll.
But before they test, there's
still some unfinished business
between Jesse and Mac.
No, but off-ball.
We'll go through the reason we're
going to ride water inch pilot.
You bet your shifter up.
So we're betting him and
I are betting 100 bucks.
Game on 100 greenbacks,
pitching a ride on a golf ball.
The only thing standing
between winning and losing
a three-quarter inch sheet of plywood.
To help settle the score,
we've brought in John Deskala,
the teaching pro at Dominguez Hills
Golf Course in Carson, California.
I've seen it done on television,
but it takes one heck of a swing.
John tees it up, monster
style, the gallery takes cover.
That's one.
Right below that scuff mark.
Right here, right here, right
here, right here, right here, right
here, right here, right here,
right here, right here, right here.
That was right on the same
ramp as the same thing.
Right there, front foot
would match the back.
Good to back.
Good to back.
Good to back.
There you go.
OK, one more.
We could cut the tension
here with the night folks.
It's down to the final shot.
We're here, right underneath.
Three swings, three misses.
The only holes in Mac's wallet.
Good try, son.
Thanks.
Pleasure to do a business with y'all.
And no doubt.
All right, my turn, let me try.
Never had one lessons.
I was just my practice swing.
I'll bet you 100 bucks,
I don't make it through.
Come on, keep your hands still.
Come right around.
Time to put some muscle in it.
I may have to give up this whole
fabrication thing after this.
No more banging and no more
bets, it's time to test.
Jesse takes his newborn
monster out to meet the world.
Next up, the driving range.
Check that, the shooting range.
The juffer from Long Beach looks like
he's ready for some smash mouth golf.
Until I come going to court.
Jesse lays out the objectives.
We wanted to pick up golf balls,
convey it into the basket,
loaded into the gun, and
make sure the gun fires.
And we're cool.
We can paint this sucker
and hand out some tools.
Grass now, we're priming the gas.
My name is Britain's name.
Great ago.
Soon I'm both about 250.
The gun is loaded.
The gall wing is open.
Jesse hits the gas.
Armageddon!
He's right here!
I call that a success.
I've got a win!
I think it's a good
test for our ingenuity.
I think we did a fine job with it.
Considering that not behind the
wheel, I think we did great.
I like it, it's the most weapon-like.
This is what it's all about.
Forget everything else, get in stuff.
We got some Mac tool kits,
and Porsche golf clothes.
Cool.
Good job, I'm going to jump in.
Andy, thank you.
Awesome.
Here it is, bro.
I'm Mac.
Taring to those.
The Porsche pasted its test.
Jesse passed out the tools.
It's Monster Painting Time.
Tom Prood of Damon's motorcycle creations
is the man with the spray can.
It won't be long now before this
blazing beauty burns up the fairway.
Well, Jesse said he wanted to bright.
He's got to wear sunglasses
in the morning on this, baby.
Guys, the country club aren't
going to know what hit him,
when they see him pull it on the grass.
Monster Garage Factoid.
Every year, one out of every two
golfers is injured during play.
The most common injuries include
sunstroke and heart attacks.
Monster Garage.
Ladies and gentlemen,
welcome to another
Monster Garage Challenge.
I'm your host, the big swag with
my partner, Frankie Whiteside.
Frankie, where the hell are we?
El Dorado Park Golf Course in
Long Beach, California Swag.
Tell him why we're here, Frank.
Hey, see that kid out there?
That's why.
Exactly right, we're here for the kid.
Here it is.
The kid in the picker.
He's got a job to do and
we're going to cheer him on.
Oh, hey, that's a rough mark.
Hey, hey, that's not nice.
Hey, the kid's taken a pound in Frankie.
What's he going to do
to the kid, Frankie?
Something like this?
He said something work.
Right to make a contribution.
And this is how he's treated.
They could put him
down and keep him down.
Frankie, I can't watch.
He's a lambing led to the slaughter.
swag.
What's that?
Not what swag?
Oh, you got to be kidding me.
Ken, if you can hear me, just hold
on because help is on the way.
That's right, Frankie.
The calmery is here.
Oh, one man army name, Jesse James.
Frankie, tell the folks at home
what the heck he's driving.
We're looking at a 1984
Porsche 944 with a nifty,
70-style vanway on the back.
Nice touch, Jesse.
This is not your German
father, Porsche Frank.
Looks like Jesse's turn to
the Porsche into a picker.
A range picker.
Look at him, go.
That is without a doubt.
The quickest slickest golf ball
picker the world has ever seen.
It's the lengthness monster.
It's the to-ranged picker.
Move over over and let the
throw from Dolbert take over.
What's he doing, Auschwatt?
He looks like he's shot an epic offer.
Hey, folks, let's listen in.
Now, I've never seen a
bug to make the offer.
We're not so fast.
Hey, you little man, here we are.
Those guys are taking aim.
He's a sitting duck.
Why does any move?
Because the man is cool
under pressure, old pal.
Yes, so come on, fancy pants.
You can go in 80 degrees outside.
He's got a sweater on both.
Come on, my mom can sit in better.
You guys, fix up for you.
Go get it.
You can't hit me.
You can hit me.
The door is popping up.
Jesse's going.
Jesse, James, give him
the Ozzy Osborns to loop.
There's the meanest looking
clown face I've ever seen.
That's no clown.
It's a cannon.
That's no pawns.
It's a tensor.
He's fired out all cylinders.
Jesse is crossing through the
lines and the trooper's scattering.
It's paper time, honey.
Good balls coming out faster, Randy.
That's easy.
I'm under miles an hour.
They're gone.
Check it out, Frank.
Did you see that?
Hey, toss the keys to the kid.
Wow.
For Jesse James, there's no
time for bogies, birdies,
but say, drive in.
There's metal to bird and sparks to fly.
Because the next monster garage
challenge is just around the bend.
