Reality Rides

Carl and his build team from Carl's Custom Cars takes a 2-hour drive to visit an abandoned old car dealership to look for the rare 1955 Buick. The team is surprised at what they find on this adventure.

After the crew locates the Buick - or lack thereof - they seek out the rest of its missing parts around the warehouse.

Carl and the build team arrive back at the shop and begin to dismantle the Buick all the way down it's nuts and bolts. The crew begins to realize that this may be a bigger challenge than they thought.

As the team begins to work on the Buick, they find that there are going to be a few challenges and setbacks that they hadn't anticipated that might put the whole project in jeopardy.

As the frame returns from sandblasting, Carl and team find that all the chrome must be stripped and sent off to be re-chromed, perhaps the most difficult, time-consuming, and expensive part of the the project.

As the project begins to come together, the team must make the rewarding yet grueling decision of paint combination. In addition, troubles with the engine may be more serious than the crew thought.
