TheUtmostTrouble TheUtmostTrouble

Hellion of a Car

This episode starts off in a different area than last time, this episode started in a junkyard.  Heavy D and Diesel Dave walk around and find different vehicles for the next project.  They come across a limousine, an old f350 in perfect condition; that they really wanted but happened to be sold already.

They thought it was the end of the world.. until they stumbled upon a perfect Cummins and Allison combo in a big Ford F650.

This is a big vehicle to be working on, I can’t imagine tackling a project like this so easily, it’s phenomenal that they can just go in and do something like this.

When Heavy D and Diesel Dave arrive back at the shop with their new ride for the giveaway ride, they find that The Muscle has bought a 1971 El Camino..

I do not think that Red Beard will be too impressed with this move after they all find out how much that he spent on this car.

The car may have seemed like a measly 4,000 dollars to The Muscle, but it was a car that was missing the proper original motor, had been rear ended with damage to the rear half of the frame, and the interior was destroyed.

To most car enthusiasts, this would be a nightmare as it is a torn apart car, but it is a car that has dastard plans ahead of it.  Can’t imagine jumping into a project like this with 4,000 dollars invested into half of a car.

The Muscle wants to lift this El Camino and basically just use this whole 4,000 dollars he spent on this car just for the body, which has dents all through it along with mismatched paint.  This project would include lifting it, putting solid front and rear axles, mounting some gigantic tires on it, bumpers, light bars, and lastly a beautiful paint job.

Can you imagine how much this build will cost? I cant imagine there being any sort of profit on this build with this radical idea The Muscle has in store.

Red Beard is beyond words with how ridiculous the ideas sound, especially with all of the money being sunken into this project with the giveaway truck needing to be finished just a week down the road.

Diesel Dave shows a particular interest for this build throughout, he wants it to happen full force, he sees no drawbacks with it.

Something seems fishy about this I feel like Diesel Dave is liking this project more than he should..

Heavy D is against the whole project and wants nothing to do with it, but secretly he holds the information needed for the build, but nobody knows this until the last minute.

The Ford F650 project had began by stretching the cab from a four door crazy machine to a six door machine, making it extremely long, but has the ability to seat 8 people!  Along with Heavy D going to the military scrapyard getting some twelve and a half ton axles for this beast.  This build was not finished in this episode, but presuming that it will be in the next.

Meanwhile the Hell Camino is taking its toll, getting the new solid axles put in, along with the perfect new wheels, tires, light bars, interior and perfect blazing orange paint job, it is ready to hit the streets.

What does Diesel Dave think of the final project?

I knew that him showing such a strong interest in it that he would have purchased the Hell Camino for 60,000 dollars!
