In a bold move, the team acquires a beaten-down SF FRS, embarking on a mission to unveil its hidden potential. With a visual inspection revealing a sorry state of affairs, they enlist the expertise of a seasoned mechanic to diagnose the car's ailments. From battery woes to body kit blunders, the laundry list of necessary fixes looms large, totaling a staggering $6,100. Undeterred by the hefty price tag, our intrepid enthusiasts decide to roll up their sleeves and tackle the challenges head-on.
Armed with determination and a DIY spirit, the team dives into the nitty-gritty of car maintenance, starting with a crucial oil change. However, their efforts uncover a sinister presence: RTV lurking in the engine's oil pickup tube, posing a grave threat to the car's heart. Undaunted by the potential catastrophe, they meticulously clean the pickup tube, ensuring the engine's longevity. As they navigate the complexities of reassembling the car, from the oil pan to the CV axle, each obstacle is met with grit and perseverance.
Despite facing setbacks and unforeseen hurdles, the team emerges victorious, having conquered the challenges of reviving the ailing SF FRS. Through a mix of determination, resourcefulness, and a touch of madness, they breathe new life into the once-neglected vehicle. As the dust settles and the engine roars to life once more, a sense of accomplishment fills the air.
