In this thrilling episode of MotorTrend Channel, the team is on the brink of unleashing their Peak 63 four-door wagon, a beast unlike any other. This ain't your average wagon, no sir - it's a meticulously crafted machine with a Roadside Rescue mission in mind. With a keen eye for reliability and top-notch engineering, they dove into the project headfirst, piecing together a new frame, control arms, and rack and pinion in a mere four days. Out with the old and in with the new - the engine, transmission, and rear end were swapped out, leaving only the wheels from the original setup.

But the challenges didn't stop there. While they found a complete chassis, motor, and transmission in catalogs, the elusive rear section for a 63 Bel Air station wagon remained out of reach. Undeterred, the team pressed on, gearing up for an epic desert adventure. From sealed beam headlights to wiper blades and a spotless windshield, they left no stone unturned in preparing the Peak wagon for the journey ahead. And let's not forget about the antifreeze - a crucial addition to keep things cool under pressure.

As the sun sets on another day of hard work, the team reflects on the progress made with the help of Roadster shop, blueprint crate engine, and gear transmission. Steering, disc brakes, suspension - you name it, they've tackled it with gusto. With just a few final touches left before hitting the road, the Peak wagon is poised for greatness. Stay tuned for the next chapter in this adrenaline-fueled saga, where road trips, snacks, and endless possibilities await.
