Premiere Date:May 07, 2014 - 09:00-10:00PM ET

Danielle and the guys kick it into overdrive when they land a high-profile custom pick for Dollywood, the theme park owned by legendary country music star Dolly Parton. A tribute to the Smokey Mountain Fire Patrol of the 1930s, the park's brand new roller coaster wouldn't be complete without some key pieces of vintage petroliana. And the team has just two weeks to uncover a long list of hard-to-find items.

I too saw this show. Looks like they wanted old time fire equipment and old gas station items

I saw some of the stuff they picked when I was at DW back in April.  Really neat to see where it came from and how it got there.

I had this on DVR and finally watched it last night. Found it  interesting as I had never heard of the gasoline brands on the sign they picked. But, poor old Dolly really needs to lay off the Botox for awhile.
