Runs Good

Dan, Shea and Aaron try to bring an LS-swapped Porsche 944 project back to life. They're going to complete what its last owner couldn't, building the ultimate high-revving, tight-handling racing machine that will turn heads on and off the track.

Dan and Shea drive out to Clovis, New Mexico, to rescue the holy grail of JDM imports, a 40-year-old Toyota AE86 sitting neglected in a driveway. When they get it back to the shop, Aaron is quick to point out everything literally falling off the car.

It's immediately apparent why this Mustang Cobra project couldn't be finished -- it's got issues. Despite the '99's reputation as the worst of the bunch, Dan, Shea and Aaron turn this flailing, failed project into a race-ready 2000 Cobra SVT tribute.

Thanks to a blown turbo, this engine-swapped Ford Ranger project has been gathering dust. To rescue this "Urban Assault Vehicle," Dave Chappelle helps Dan, Shea and Aaron fix and fabricate to create an intimidating Ranger that can handle any terrain.

Shea, Dan and guest Wiley Stevens get less than they bargained for when a mess of a project car turns up and doesn't look anything like its photos. Undeterred, they tackle the original owner's plan to create the ultimate engine-swapped JDM grocery-getter.

With the help of Amir Bentatou (Superstreet Garage), Shea, Aaron and Dan rescue this rust-riddled 1989 Honda CRX from what would ultimately be the scrap pile.

With an always packed schedule, it turns out that Dan is no better than any other project car owner. He let his C5 Corvette fall to the wayside, but Shea and Aaron give him the final push to get his Corvette out of his side yard and into a car show.

Aaron thinks a stalled RX-7 drift project checks all the boxes. The car has the makings to be a powerhouse drift car, with a surprise under the hood that makes this candidate all the more enticing.

Shea, Aaron and Dan take inspiration from the original owner's plan for a Miata with shoddy welds and complete the ultimate version of what he intended. It won't be long till this over-the-top build is ripping rooster tails in the dunes!

This V-8-powered Subaru STI looks good on the surface, but needed a complete mechanical overhaul, with some extra little touches. Given Subaru's pedigree, the guys get the build sorted and put it through its paces on the tarmac and the dirt.
