In a thrilling episode of MotorTrend Channel, the team acquires a 1973 or 1974 Plymouth Duster from the legendary Chris Birdsong for a mere $700. This beast, equipped with a potent 5.9 L Magnum engine and a stock Mopar 3-speed transmission, exudes raw power and potential. However, challenges arise as they discover issues like a delicate rear end that could spell trouble on their upcoming adventure.

Determined to put the Duster through its paces, the team heads to Rally Ready in Texas for a showdown against the Camaro from the Fast with Finnegan show. Despite facing off against a formidable opponent, the Duster proves its mettle on the track, showcasing impressive performance and handling. The stage is set for an epic battle as the team prepares to fine-tune the Duster and take on the vet cart in a high-stakes race at Barbie's Ranch.

With meticulous attention to detail, the team works tirelessly to address the Duster's shortcomings, from fixing the alignment and suspension to upgrading the wheels and tires for optimal grip. As they gear up for the showdown, anticipation builds as Chris Birdsong takes the wheel of the Duster, ready to face off against the vet cart in a heart-pounding race. Will Birdsong's driving prowess and the Duster's enhancements be enough to secure victory and reclaim the car in a thrilling display of skill and determination?
