Neil’s 1974 Chevy “luv” truck has
looks that not even a mother could love. With a hunk-of-junk
camper on its back and mismatched wheels, this Chevy
is getting Neil anything but love. So Neil is floored
when X arrives on his doorstep ready to pimp his ride.
“Pimpin’ is about love,” X preaches
to Neil, “so we’ve got to show this ride
some love.“ X isn’t so positive once he
feasts his eyes on the Chevy, and is absolutely mortified
when he sees the ride’s “system,”
which is actually a boom box circa 1985. Will the automotive
pimps at West Coast Customs be able to put the love
back into Neil's “luv machine?”
When the Chevy arrives at West Coast, the guys get
right to work (after they have a good laugh and take
a few good kicks and swings at the ride, of course).
First they strip off the “super chicken yellow”
paint, and get rid of the old camper. Next they work
on turning the truck bed into a “party palace,”
complete with neon lights, an Xbox, and 7,000 watts
of sound. The most impressive part of the new party
palace, a.k.a. the truck bed, is that with the push
of a button, the walls of the truck bed rise up to create
a camper where Neil can really get his party on.
On the exterior, the new Chevy is decked out in a true
blue pearl shade that looks extra-hot after the West
Coast guys add flames to the hood. In addition, not
only does the Chevy have matching wheels now, but pimpin’
chrome rims as well.
Neil is overjoyed when he sees the new Chevy. His ride
will finally get checked out for all of the right reasons.
X also surprises Neil with some new camping gear, so
he’ll be the most pimped out guy on the mountain.
This “luv machine” is definitely back in
business.

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!
