Episode Summary

1998 Ford Crown Victoria / Donut Shop''

This mostly all-cop team converted a squad car into a mobile doughnut shop complete with coffee maker and pastry display case. The most inspired build yet? Or a misguided (if not defamatory) one? "It would be cool not to have to leave your cruiser to have a doughnut and a cup of coffee," said one wide-eyed visiting Long Beach officer. "But it's still wrong."''''

It was amazing that they were able to fit eveything they needed into the car. The two old guys were funny

The show was great. I wanted Jesse to drive the car to a county fair and pull next to their donut maker wagons and totally blow them out of the water. The stolen car caper was a little lame.
The car was set up so Jesse could drive in hit the switches to raise the roof and open both doors. He then could start the generator and power up the donut machine and conveyer belt. The donuts would come down the belt and go through a glaze waterfall. Heck there was even sprinkles. There was also a display case if you made too many.moreless
