Low Bull-Rider
Episode Synopsis
1970 Ford Ranchero / Mechanical Bull Oh yeah. This 4,300-pound low ridin', high buckin' bull started out as a 1970 Ford Ranchero before Jesse and his crew fed it a week's diet of 12 batteries, eight solenoids and four hydraulic pumps and cylinders. Not to mention a mean set of 6-foot steer horns as a hood ornament. Is anyone crazy enough to actually ride this thing? • Jesse James, custom-bike builder/designer, West Coast Choppers, Long Beach, Calif. • Chad Denton, bull rider, Oroville, Calif • Eric Jones, hydraulics expert, Pro Hopper Inc., Van Nuys, Calif. • Quinter Pittillo, custom-car builder, Sacramento, Calif. • Edgar Sifuentes, hydraulics expert, Pro Hopper Inc., Van Nuys, Calif. • Rob Smets, bull fighter, Shamrock, Texas
