In this exhilarating episode from the MotorTrend Channel, the intrepid team sets their sights on resurrecting a 1966 Dodge D100 pickup truck that has been languishing in storage for a staggering two years. Armed with their unwavering determination and a healthy dose of skepticism from their colleague, they embark on a mission to prove that this vintage beauty is the epitome of coolness.
As they delve into the restoration process, they quickly discover that the truck's fuel system is in dire need of attention. The gasoline, resembling a pint of Guinness with its dark hue and foamy head, is a clear indication that it won't be powering this beast anytime soon. Undeterred, they rig up a temporary fuel system to get the engine running again, showcasing their resourcefulness and determination.
But the challenges don't end there. A broken heater hose and a clogged fuel pump threaten to derail their progress. However, with quick thinking and a few choice words, they manage to overcome these obstacles and get the truck back on the road. The team's expertise shines as they meticulously inspect all the fluids and ensure that the truck is in top-notch condition.
With the truck finally up and running, the team embarks on a thrilling test drive. The powerful roar of the engine and the solid performance of the brakes leave them exhilarated and satisfied. It's a triumphant moment for the team as they realize that their efforts have paid off and the truck is once again a force to be reckoned with.
In true MotorTrend fashion, this episode is a testament to the team's unwavering dedication and passion for all things automotive. With their signature wit and charm, they prove that even a neglected vintage truck can be brought back to life with a little bit of elbow grease and a whole lot of determination.
