In this latest installment from the Cleetus McFarland channel, the team finds themselves knee-deep in the guts of a Ford F-150 truck. With the rain pouring down outside, they toil away, grinding and welding, in their quest to pull out the engine and transmission. But fear not, dear viewers, for they are not alone in this endeavor. They are joined by the trusty Raycon earbuds, which provide them with some much-needed respite from the deafening noise of the shop.

But let's not forget the real star of the show - Ruby, the beloved race car. With her engine now securely bolted in and various parts dressed, the team sets about tackling the wiring and plumbing. They proudly show off their new Holly Pro Dash and button panel, a testament to their commitment to perfection. And let's not overlook the meticulous attention to detail, with the steering column finally receiving a fresh coat of paint.

However, no project is without its challenges, and Ruby is no exception. As they attempt to fire her up, a belt screech and zero oil pressure send shivers down their spines. Panic sets in, but they quickly diagnose the problem - the oil lines were hooked up incorrectly. With the issue resolved, Ruby roars back to life, her engine purring like a contented lion.

With the two-step and transbrake successfully tested, the team is brimming with excitement. They can practically taste the adrenaline as they envision taking Ruby for a spin, ready to conquer the streets and potentially dominate the race track. So buckle up, dear viewers, for the next chapter in the thrilling saga of Ruby is about to unfold.
