a100 truck on overhaulin tonight, on velocity channel

might be replayed, just a note if anyone wants to try to find it.

i saw that too. i think the episode is from 2006. interesting episode. i hated the paint scheme though

I missed it last night as well as in 2006!
I found this pick on the ol' WWW:

I could live with the paint scheme. I would have prefered white instead of silver. I didn't care for the headlight treatment. I think the piepans make the Dodge A-100. I also didn't care for welding up all the body seams. If you watch the reveal you can see there are no windows in the doors. I've never seen a picture with the side windows up. I wonder if they did a one piece side glass or restore them with the vent windows after the reveal. Nice to see them do an early anyway. Wish Chip would take a shot at my Econoline.

Looks like season 4 episode 8. I remember this one because they but a Baer braking system on it. I emailed both TLC and Baer brakes for information as to what they used and TLC never got back to me and the response I got from Baer was less than pleasant. The guy basically said they could not and would not help. Just another bullshit company that doesn't want to sell stuff.

I made some clips on it back then,,,,,,,

TLC would have no idea what was used, they film the show.

Baer probably donated the calipers along with other brake parts, the brackets could of been either made by the crew at Foose Design or sourced from another vendor. Or Foose Design has the rights to whatever was used therefore Baer will not and can not disclose the information. I work for an OEM custom motorcycle manufacturer and we use Wilwood calipers, some are off the shelf and some that are branded for our company and exclusive to us. If you called Wilwood wanting our caliper they would refuse the sale. Not saying any of that is exactly what is going on, but you went to the wrong sources to find out.

I would send a letter, yes a personal letter with real USPS postage to:

Foose Design

I'll give that a try. I was just surprised at how short and cold the guy was to help at all. He didn't even recommend anything to help like you did. I guess I might just be getting bitter about some of these companies that almost try not to sell product. I'm not in sales these days but it seems to me they could sell at least a few hundred brake upgrade kits for early vans. I guess it might be to small of a market to care.
