Mary and her 1967 Mustang or “Matty Mustang”
as she likes to call it, have been through a lot together.
In fact, Mary’s entire family has been through
a lot with Matty. The Mustang belonged to Mary’s
sister and her mother before it was passed onto her.
Unfortunately, after 15 years with the fam, Matty needs
some…no, tons of work. Thankfully Xzibit is on
the scene to help revive this family heirloom.
“It looks like Customs got a hold of this when
you were crossing the border!” X proclaims when
he sees the ride--and he isn’t talking about West
Coast Customs. The Mustang is three different colors,
four if you count rust, the windows are broken, there
is stuffing from the seats everywhere, and although
the seat belts work, the seats aren’t even bolted
to the car, and there is no floor beneath the driver’s
chair. Mary is taking her life into her hands with this
ride, but, after all of these years, Matty is family.
Mary even took an auto shop class to try to fix up
her Mustang, but soon found out shop wasn’t her
thing when she tried to super glue the car back together.
Better let the pros at West Coast take a stab at rehabilitating
ol’ Matty. Mary demonstrates the Dukes of Hazard
way to get into the car by sliding through the window
when X can’t seem to get the door open, but he
opts to use the passenger door.
When X and the Mustang pull into the West Coast garage,
Q exclaims that “this is the worst ride yet!”
Not a good sign, but the guys soon devise a plan and
put it into action. After the interior is ripped out
and the exterior is painted, the guys decide that Matty
needs something a little extra special…fire. What
would be hotter than when Mary steps on the gas, flames
shoot from the Mustang’s tail pipes? Soon, Matty
is transformed into a live fire starter, and the boys
even get to roast some marshmallows before they’re
told they have to dismantle the flame shooters because
they’re not street legal.
Soon it is time for Mary to see the new, pimped-out
Matty Mustang. When the ride is revealed, she is stunned.
Matty is now dressed in turquoise color, sports 17-inch
custom wheels with chrome rims that you need sunglasses
to look at, and an entirely new interior that includes
reclining seats (bolted down even!), in which X shows
Mary how to do the “gangsta lean.” There’s
also a DVD player in the dashboard with a monitor mounted
on the ceiling, so Mary can lay back, kick it and watch
some flicks, plus a radio with six surround sound speakers.
Xzibit even surprises Mary with something for her other
love, surfing. X gives her a brand new surfboard that
she can attach to the roof of her new ride.
Mary’s family is overjoyed at the sight of the
new Matty Mustang, and Mary can’t wait to hit
the beach in her new ride, and with her new board. Now
thanks to the guys at West Coast, Matty can last another
15 years and be the ride for future generations!

Pimp My Ride Show Summary
Xzibit and the good people at West Coast
Customs make people's cars go from dirt to pimped in
this 30 minute show that airs weekly on MTV.
Hosted by Xzibit and featuring Los Angeles-area aftermarket
shop West Coast Customs, “MTV Pimp My Ride”
selects young, automotively challenged Southern Californians
and transforms their rust buckets into triumphs.
For many young adults, getting the insurance or finance to fix up their cars can be difficult and taking out a car loan is often no an option. “It’s not just about the cars
anymore,” Xzibit said, but also “the boost
that these kids get in their self-esteem. You can see
it in their faces.”
Wheels, Grilles, Body Kits, Customer Paint, Rims, Tires, Car Audio, Car DVD Video and Computer Systems, and many more crazy additions are transplanted into a Pimped Rides every episode!
