HRG Day started a friends-and-family open-track day, and this year we're inviting all our friends! Freiburger and Dulcich are in, Derek RSVP'd yes, and so did Newbern, Cotten, and Dirthead Dave.
Big Blower? Check. Anything else Pro Street?
Alex and Lucky team up with the deep pockets at PEAK performance, diving into their wallet and their '63 Bel Air wagon to see how easily their prepared parts come together.
D100 farm truck rides with a gen-three Hemi up front, more beef in the rear and an aggressive Lucky Costa behind the wheel.
Having reached its peak of preciousness and collectability, one unfortunate C1 Corvette is under the knife at Hot Rod Garage; the days of Sunday services and parade routes will be a memory as it starts a new life of modern horsepower and tire smoke.
Years ago, Roadkill rescued a D100 from a junkyard, then left it to sit; Alex and Lucky are making sure it will never be neglected again.
The Roadster needs a few projects completed to pass tech; Push Truck needs every bit of suspension and steering made right.
Have you ever wanted to do your own paint and body work, but been too intimidated to try? Let Alex and Lucky show you the tips, the tricks, the dos, and the don'ts of the at-home paint job as they transform their faded and peeling GMC Typhoon.
Lead sleds are universally cool and buying someone else's project can be surprising; join Alex and Lucky as they uncover quirks and shortcuts the previous owner took, in their quest to revive one of the coolest styles.
Our race-focused, street-legal Nova gets all the bugs worked out to let us test its suspension; with a big cam with a matched converter to send the power, our foundation is getting set for big horsepower numbers and low street-car ETs.
We may have lost the shop, but we're putting that lease money to good use with an all-new '72 Nova project. This one has two goals: be fast at the track and be civil on the streets.
Pro Street is back, and Hot Rod Garage is putting its Pro Street stamp on a big-winged 1960 El Camino. Step one: stack the blower to the sky!
Since we last saw Lucky's surprise Galaxie, it has burned way more oil than rubber. This time, the tired 260ci V-8 gets the boot in favor of a fresh 5.0 Coyote motor, bringing it one step closer to proper super-wagon status.
Derek's Roadworthy Rescue'd Trans Am may have been destroyed before, but the crew is trying to make it right; enter 455 upgrades for power, a T-56 for shifts, and EFI for all of those hairpin turns.
An all-wheel-drive sport truck should really have all of its wheels driving; that's the goal as Alex and Lucky upgrade a Typhoon trans and everything from the transfer case forward, bulletproofing parts until the next one fails.
Alex and Lucky set out to answer if a dim-a-dozen Beetle can be called a hot rod as they take a well-worn Beetle and start it down the road to a Cal-look cruiser; they're cheap, easy to modify and have parts support galore.
The '32 Roadster land speed car is finally starting to take shape, and it's ready to take its maiden voyage down the dry lake bed of El Mirage; that is, of course, if the lake bed stays dry.
Lucky Costa and Alex Taylor join forces to build hot rods in every shape imaginable; from the American RWD V-8s that would be expected to oddball and niche performers that wouldn't, they build them fast, build them cool and build them right.
``Roadkill Nights`` is back, and so is the team's '55 Savoy; the team is in Pontiac, Mich. For all the street-legal drag racing action on Woodward in the Big Tire class; that means faster cars, better drivers and a need to step up the game.
The team's long disappointed Grand National has finally earned its keep at Hot Rod Garage; with whiff after whiff at the dragstrip, the team has pulled out all the stops, called a few friends and finally got to the bottom of what's holding them back.
After years of living a polarizing existence with an electric motor, Alex and Lucky have been given the go-ahead to bring Project X back to its glory days as a gas-huffing machine; there's no better way than a simple 1,000-hp crate 632 from GM.
Alex and Lucky explore new territory in the world of land speed racing and continue down a well-worn path with the Bonemaro; more than the cars, this one is all about goals, setting personal targets and breaking personal bests.
Last year's newly minted annual holiday, HRG Day, was a wild success for everyone but the Bonemaro, the Crown Hic and the Savoy; all three came home hurt, and Hot Rod detectives Alex and Lucky are on the case to find out why.
The '92 Typhoon is back; rod knock will be a thing of the past as Alex and Lucky refresh the drivetrain and pit it head to head against today's top-of-the-line people-mover.
After months of agony searching for overpriced projects, Tony decides it's time to sell something; the most complete car is a 1974 454-powered Chevy Corvette wearing a custom 1969 wide body and killer paint.
Putting a 401 AMC V8 engine into a crusty 1974 Javelin; pairing the V8 with a proper four-speed Super T-10 transmission, long-tube headers, and a ton of other parts.
Tony and Lucky completely revamp just about everything on the 1927-ish Ford T-bucket truck; brakes, frame, steering, suspension, even the engine gets a sweet-looking 3x2 carburetor setup for primo old-school looks and performance.
Tony and Lucky try to turn a 2014 Chevy Caprice PPV into an insanely powerful street car making over 1,000 horsepower; they take a 5.3 LS engine, bolt on a giant turbocharger, and then let them sing.
Tony and Lucky finally put a shine on ``Bonemaro,`` the cheap/fast/ugly project that was the show's first big hit. Lucky comes through with a fuel system upgrade, while Tony and his boys add a one-piece fiberglass front end and a proper paint job.
Tony's 170,000-mile, 260-hp, five-speed Ford Mustang GT lacks in the muscle department.
Tony and Lucky put together a cheap rear-end package for our 1973 Gen-3 Hemi-swapped Plymouth Duster. Once the rear is built, the guys swap it into the Duster, and then drive it across LA to the 1/8 mile track at Irwindale.
Even on separate coasts, the hosts have a full-on supercar battle; Tony Angelo and Lucky Costa each get six grand to buy and modify a car; Tony grabs a wrecked Mercedez-Benz E 55, and Lucky picks up a Mistubishi 3000GT VR4 Twin Turbo.
Putting a Corvette C5 through some new, sideways paces; the 2000 Corvette which received a boost to 500 hp to rip down a straightaway now sees Tony Angelo and his buddy Mike Edwards modifying it to handle the turns.
Tony Angelo scoops up a high-mileage 1999 six-speed manual Corvette for $7,000, and it is begging for upgrades; Lucky Costa tears out the well-used 5.7 liter LS1 engine and upgrades it with a complete top-end kit before taking it down the dragstrip.
The C10 short-bed needed a serious power-up; it's time to cram some big power into this killer street truck; Tony and Lucky are stuck on opposite coasts; they aren't going to let that stop them from getting it done.
Lucky Costa gets the chance to decide what to build and chooses a mashup of a 1927 Ford truck body on a mostly 1929 Ford Model T frame, powered by a small-block Chevy.
Tony and Lucky fastest project ever is the 1,000-horsepower 2006 Chevy Impala SS with an entire second V8 drivetrain crammed into the back, but the front engine needs work, so the guys pull it out and use this chance to upgrade everything.
The HRG director picks up a '71 Sedan DeVille; Tony and Lucky raid the Drift Thislimo for a 6.0, plus other add-ons.
The T-Type, Grand National and Turbo Regal were 1980s monsters with turbocharged V6 engines; Tony Angelo and Lucky Costa buy the cheapest turbo Buick they can find and piece together a 1984 T-Type, overcoming rust, corrosion and previous repairs.
The AMC V-8 has long been seen as a strong engine that isn't very durable; Tony and Lucky build up a 401ci power plant that will take any abuse they can throw at it, keep spinning happily and make killer power along the way.
Lucky and Tony pick up a complete working 2004 Mustang GT; their goal is to turn it into a fantastic car with better suspension and brakes.
Three cars that desperately need redemption get out to the track; Tony and Lucky dig into a '70 El Camino, a '70 Duster and a ratty '79 Camaro to get them track ready and then see what they can do.
After months of cutting glass, gluing panels and stretching dollars, the guys are finally done backdating their '74 Corvette with a '69 look and transforming the tire shredder into a cruise-night star.
Lucky and Tony take their twin-engine 2006 Chevy Impala up a notch, adding a twin-turbo system and two Gearstar transmissions; at Maple Grove Raceway in Pennsylvania, Angelo crushes the quarter mile driving this Redneck Veyron.
Tony and Lucky jump headfirst into the dirt-track world when they scoop up an old Nova, drop a basic 350 in it, and take it to compete on a super-fast half-mile oval in Selinsgrove, Penn.
The guys cram an entire second drivetrain into the rear of a Chevy Impala, then put their creation through its paces on a drag strip in New Jersey.
Tony and Lucky bring a 1986 Ford Thunderbird Turbo Coupe into the 21st century by adding new turbo technology and a modern computer system; they'll see if the 2.3 L Pinto engine can hang with its recent EcoBoost descendant.
Tony and Lucky transform their '71 Sedan DeVille into a rolling party machine with full electronic controls and a nitrous oxide system.
Tony Angelo and Lucky Costa give the lowdown on drag racing as they take a 10-second turbo Camaro project and a bone-stock 1986 Ford Thunderbird Turbo Coupe, prep them for action, and hit the racetrack.
Tony and Lucky decide to build a boat of a car, a 1971 Cadillac Sedan deVille, and drop it on airbags for a sweet-and-low cruiser.
Tony Angelo and Lucky Costa transform a beat-up 1974 Corvette into the 1969 widebody, four-speed they really want.
Tony Angelo and Lucky Costa revive one of the most popular HRG builds ever, the Crown Hick; the do-everything shop truck is really a 2007 Crown Victoria Police Interceptor dressed up as a 1966 F-100.
The guys show how to perform the ultimate body swap and build a solid budget shop truck.

Big Blower? Check. Anything else Pro Street? Not yet. At least not until Alex and Lucky work their magic back-halfing our X-frame El Camino in the quest for the largest set of Mickeys they can get. One step closer to properly Pro-Street, here we come!
