Default The Last 67 Resto On TV After Thanksgiving Day

This was forwarded to me by several sources. Thought I'd pass it along. Sounds interesting. Chuck

FYI, pass the word.

In a conversation with Restoration Productions, LLC last week (Stan Rarden) concerning the taping of the Last 67 at the 2006 NCRS meet in Florida I was advised the taping will air the day after Thanksgiving.

The program will be a three hour program on the SPEED Channel. It will be on 8-11 on Friday November 24th.

The program will chronicle the restoration and ultimate judging process in Florida.

If one desires to see a preview go to www.TVCarshows.com

Did anyone watch the trailer for this? There is a clip where they show the headlights turning . . . and they do not turn at the same speed!

If I am going to plunk down close a few hundred large on a car (and someone will), the friggin headlights better turn at the same speed!

When you set your TIVO, did you find it when you just searched under corvette, or do we know the actual NAME of the show ?

I have a Tivo upstairs, and a DISH network DVR on the downstairs big screen. The dish DVR is amazing in it's speed and capacity and some features blow TIVO away. But the TIVO DVR has better searches by 'actor' and 'title'.

Wish I could combine both the %$#@ things.........

Ugh. I can hardly wait

Alot of this program is going to be shameless promoting and marketing of ProTeam I'm afraid. I will, however, watch with interest, along the lines of someone who drives by a car wreck and can't avoid looking.

Speed Channel is doing their annual American Muscle Car marathon on Thanksgiving and I was scrolling through picking the shows I wanted to Tivo. There are a couple of Vette shows in there. I then came across "The Last Stingray" or "Last Stingray" starting at 8:00pm - I believe it's six one-half hour shows Thanksgiving eve. Easiest way to get them on Tivo is to just Season Pass it.

I don't want to burst ProTeam's bubble, but the Last Stingray was a '76.

I think they just heard a loud "POP" over at their shops.

Found It!

Tivo allows you to search with 'Key Words':

I simply used 'Corvette'

I tried 'Pro Team', but the TIVO said it could not afford to show that ..

Paul,

As usual, you hit the nail on the head.
