Trucks episode, frame shortening??
I remember seeing an episode of Trucks, where the hosts were shortening a frame on a 60's chevy and was wondering if anyone can remember or has a detailed step by step description of the method that they used?

But that just IDs the episode. I can't figure out how to buy it on DVD or download it, but I'm sure there must be a way.
