  • Derek goes off the deep end with an '80s icon, the DeLorean. It's been wrecked, painted, and doesn't run, but Derek and his friends change all that with a good old junkyard LS. See if they can power this time machine and make it to LS Fest in Kentucky.

      This isn't the full episode. The full one is about 20-30 min longer and has more of the shop work, and more racing at the end. It's on Motortrend's subscription streaming service.
