Cold Stone Creamery Teams-Up with Monster Garage to Create an Extraordinary Truck

SCOTTSDALE, AZ - March 31, 2006: When the television program that's known for "Turning Ordinary Cars Into Extraordinary Machines" met The Ultimate Ice Cream Experience(R), sparks began to fly. On Monday, April 3, Cold Stone Creamery and the Monster Garage team up to construct the ultimate ice cream truck.

The finished machine isn't fit for your neighborhood ice cream man. Instead it's a reflection of what happens when you combine the world's most innovative gear head with an ice cream brand that's clearly leaving the competition in the dust.

Jesse James and his "Build Team" including Springboro, Ohio resident and Cold Stone franchisee and area developer Don Smith, turn a 1977 Chevy ice-cream delivery truck carrying 500 pounds of ice-cream and freezing equipment into a ferociously fast racing vehicle capable of taking on the experts at the International Ice Racing Association championships on a frozen lake in Minnesota.

The Cold Stone Creamery Monster Garage episode will air on the Discovery Channel, April 3 at 8:00pm (ET/PT).
