I keep coming back to this episode. It's the combination of the second-gen charger, saving a cool car from the scrapheap, cobbling together a bunch of parts, being resourceful enough to know a haunted motorhome has the top-tier mopar engine you want, and the realism of passion projects taking way longer than you think they would. This is what makes "cars" as a hobby really rock. Great job, Roadkill. I'm only 9 years late in realizing this was your best episode ever.

2019. I think this one of the better episodes because it recreates all the struggles of a project car. From finding parts, storing them, annoying neighbors, making a mess, shuffling cars, how long meaningful projects actually take, and the issues you have with a new build. The recent roadkill, are pushed out to fast, with throwaway cars. This didn't feel like a throwaway car.

Lots of helpful hints there. Recently acquired a 440 and transmission, some other goodies. Let the fun begin! Thanks guys.

This show is great, if I suddenly get some anti American feelings from reading some stupid comment somewhere on the internet I can always go watch a an episode of roadkill to get my faith in US people Instantly restored. No one could play around with these cool old muscle cars with such enthusiasm as Freiburger and Finnegan. and no other car culture could supply them with the mad old machinery that goes to make their awesome rods. it makes shows like top gear eat dust. The best kudos goes out to the hosts and their team for making this awesome show.
