April 2, 2006

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — Cold Stone Creamery and the Monster Garage teamed up to construct the ultimate ice cream truck. The construction of the truck will air on the Discovery Channel on April 3.

According to a news release, the team turned 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.

Monster Garage takes a dream team of mechanics and places them in a garage fully equipped to transform an ordinary vehicle into an extraordinary machine -- all within one week.

Headquartered in Scottsdale, Ariz., Cold Stone Creamery is an independently owned franchise system with more than 1,250 stores in the United States, the Caribbean, Guam and Japan.
