S2E1 - Soccer Mom
Comic/gearhead Christopher Titus is tricking out an SUV into a one-of-a-kind super-machine he affectionately calls "Killing the Soccer Mom." This refers to taking a kids-and-shopping family tank and getting rid of all that screams "suburban female head of household." Outspoken family man Titus has big plans for this rig, working with Wings West and making it into a ride that you'll WANT Mom to pick you up in.

Look at her — beautiful lines, curvaceous, ultra-sleek and the star of one of the biggest car flicks of all time. She's now being handcrafted, one part at a time, in Dallas.

But before you open the checkbook, check out the episode where we'll see an Eleanor get built from start to finish.
