CNN to Donate Proceeds of 'Overhauled' Hummer Auction to Fisher House TLC's Overhaulin' Unveiled Restored Iraq War Vehicle Today in Front of CNN Center in Atlanta Following the unveiling of an overhauled CNN Hummer that saw action during the war in Iraq, the network plans to put the vehicle on the auction block and donate the proceeds to the Fisher House Foundation, an organization that builds "comfort homes" for families of hospitalized military personnel.
Nicknamed "Warrior One," the Hummer will be the subject of an upcoming episode of Overhaulin', a highly rated program on The Learning Channel. The program's co-hosts Chris Jacobs and Adrienne "A.J." Janic and hot rod designer Chip Foose presented the refurbished Hummer to CNN employees this morning.
After Warrior One's tour of military bases and other sites across the country, the Barrett-Jackson Auction Co., a premiere classic car auction house, will auction the vehicle on Jan. 20, 2007, at the auction company's headquarters in Scottsdale, Ariz.

"The crew from Overhaulin' has created a memorable tribute to military personnel who serve during times of war and the journalists who cover them," said Jim Walton, president of CNN Worldwide. "We feel the Fisher House - with its mission to support military families during times of medical need - is an ideal recipient for the proceeds raised by the auction."

I'm glad they chromed the tow hook. Chrome always makes them so much more functional, and stronger. Not. :lame:

One of these days we're going to meet.....:fdance: ;) :D :D :D

Rubberduck did the suspension!:perfect10s:

I was also unimpressed with reporters allowing themselves to be called heroes. Good thing they were donating it for the Fischer House! You could always paint over the CNN logo....

It needed bumpers. I wonder why they chose to leave them off?

At the end did you see the Pres of CNN give that gal a hug?! "You get a hug" he says. PLEAZE! Was that politically correct?

I'm a fan of diesels, but putting a 454 in it was kinda cool.
