In this thrilling episode of B is for Build, the team embarks on a daring mission to resurrect a severely damaged Mercy Lago, acquired at a bargain price. With the clock ticking for their 2024 SEMA build, they face setbacks in fabrication and body paneling, putting their skills to the test. The focus shifts to the back end of the car, where they ingeniously repurpose a Lamborghini rear bumper to fill in the gaping holes with a custom panel. The team's resourcefulness shines as they craft a trunk cover fill panel using unconventional materials like Ram Board and steel, showcasing their determination to bring this beast back to life.
Amidst challenges with welding, the team forges ahead with designing a diffuser, meticulously cutting fins and flat sections out of aluminum to enhance the car's aerodynamics. Despite setbacks with a faulty welder, they persevere, determined to create a masterpiece. A decision to attach the diffuser directly to the rear bumper reveals their innovative approach to problem-solving, showcasing a blend of creativity and practicality. The following day brings a moment of reflection on the spoiler design, highlighting the team's attention to detail and commitment to perfection.
Moving on to the next task, the team delves into the realm of 3D printed tail light housings, demonstrating their versatility in tackling various aspects of the project. Through meticulous plastic welding and sanding, they transform raw materials into sleek, polished components, a testament to their craftsmanship. Despite challenges with a brush-on primer, they adapt and opt for a sprayable high fill primer, showcasing their ability to overcome obstacles with ingenuity and skill. The episode culminates in a display of resilience and determination as the team pushes forward, inching closer to their goal of reviving the once-crashed Mercy Lago into a stunning automotive masterpiece.
