ICE CREAM TRUCK REACHES SCREAMING SPEEDS
Cold Stone Creamery Teams-Up with Monster Garage to Create an Extraordinary Truck
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (March 31, 2006) –
When the television program that’s
known for “Turning Ordinary Cars Into
Extraordinary Machines” met The
Ultimate Ice Cream Experience®, 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).
