'Extreme Makeover: Home Edition' Albuquerque, New Mexico Day Three Summary: And Then There Were Walls! Rusty Wallace to be on Site Day Five

Albuquerque, NM (PRWEB) January 19, 2008 -- "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" (tune in Sundays 8/7c on ABC) is filming on site at the Martinez Family home in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The project is going as planned with the entire demolition and reconstruction set to be completed within one week!

On Day Three Ty, the design team, and the Atreus team of builders had their work cut out for them with the absolute necessity of covering the recently completed framing with drywall. Walls were definitely the name of the game for Day Three, but by the end of the day?there were walls!

Visitors to the site keep the teams spirits high. The community's involvement is always a big part of the show and Albuquerque is no exception. To keep up the morale of the crew and the volunteers alike Rusty Wallace, NASCAR legend, is visiting the site on Day 4 in the Atreus No. 66 Dodge! His involvement with the lead home builder has left him interested in the project and its progress. Visitors are welcome to come meet and talk to Rusty!
