Derek works to revive a 1960 Chevrolet El Camino with a suspicious past.

Derek heads back to his family farm in North Dakota, where a 1946 Ford grain truck from his grandfather sits. It's been out of commission since the 1980s. He must team up with his brothers Chris and Sean to get it driving in time to haul grain.

Derek heads to Guthrie, Oklahoma, where he finds a flathead straight-six, straight-body 1947 Studebaker Champion hiding in a storage container.

Derek finds a '62 Bonneville that's been sitting for decades at a horse ranch in eastern Michigan. He has to replace the transmission and fabricate all-new motor and transmission mounts if he wants to cruise Woodward Avenue in metro Detroit.

Derek battles fluid leaks and bad brakes just to get the Turd Bird back to Vice Grip Garage. He tears the car down, blasts it clean, and gives it a new life with a modern touch, but it'll take an awful lot of elbow grease to make this one shine.

Derek has had a '55 Pontiac Chieftain waiting for a revival, and he's keen to turn it into a tribute to the early days of NASCAR.
