DESCRIPTION:
(from Discovery's press release, February 2016) There is nothing subtle about the long-bearded rocker Billy Gibbons, lead singer and guitarist for the legendary band ZZ Top. One thing that Billy loves is loud rock n' roll - and even louder hot rods. ROCKIN' ROADSTERS, a new pilot premiering Monday, February 29 at 10 PM ET/PT on Discovery, will follow Billy's quest to fulfill his wildest hot rod desires. Hot rodding is not just about the cars, it's a lifestyle. In the pilot episode, Billy reaches out to one of the top hot rod builders in the business - Jimmy Shine. Billy has known Jimmy for more than 20 years and during that time, they've built dozens of award-winning hot rods. When they get together, you never know what kind of car will come to life. Billy acts as the creative director, driving the vision and finding the hidden gem vehicles while Jimmy executes and makes sure it all comes together. But it's a partnership that's often easier said than done.
