In this thrilling episode from MotorTrend Channel, the team embarks on a daring quest to acquire a vintage 39 Ford two-door sedan, a gem they stumbled upon on eBay. This beauty boasts a unique Y Block engine and a quirky teapot carburetor, adding to its mystique. With little knowledge about this pre-war marvel, the team sets out on a risky 800-mile road trip to Texas in search of their next project car, embracing the unknown challenges that lie ahead.
As they fire up the Ford for the first time, the team faces initial hiccups like a dead battery and a wobbly seat, but their determination shines through. Delving into the car's history, they uncover that the 39 Ford was a trailblazer, being the first Ford to feature hydraulic brakes, a revolutionary innovation back in the day. Despite the car's age, its character and charm are undeniable, making it a prized possession for any hot rod enthusiast.
The adventure takes an unexpected turn when the team visits Combat Park, where they get to drive tanks and Humvees, leading to some comical mishaps along the way. Back on the road, they encounter a setback with the car's generator, but their resourcefulness and teamwork prevail as they troubleshoot and fix the issue, proving that no challenge is too great for this intrepid group. With the Ford back in action, they rev up their engines and continue their journey, ready to face whatever obstacles come their way with their trademark wit and resilience.
