[Heavy D] We've spent months building and preparing
some of the most badass vehicles on the planet.
[Diesel Dave] We got classic cars, we've got off road monsters,
we've got hard-working machines.
We've even got a rat rod.
[Heavy D] Now we're finally at the finish line...
with one last over-the-top build.
She got on.
After taking a chance on this gas Crew Cab Corvette, we are stranded.
Let's see how far we get this time, huh?
Man if we can't get this thing fixed in time,
it's one less vehicle for bidders to come bid on, and that's 11 grand.
Getting a bit nervous, right there.
[Heavy D] Something explodes under the hood.
Plus, we're also running a new giveaway.
I want to be in charge of this giveaway.
-That's bad. -Bad.
[man 1] Yeah. Look who's happy.
That thing is huge.
[Heavy D] And with hundreds of thousands of dollars
plus our reputation on the auction block, it's kind of like, do or die.
Let's hope this does the trick because I don't want to stop anymore.
This sucks because we have put so much time
and effort into getting this lineup of vehicles ready.
We really needed one more big,
exciting build for the auction.
Yoo-hoo!
[Heavy D] After spending $10,000 on a very rare military truck
that I thought would be perfect to bring in new buyers
for the auction, disaster struck.
I can find a bed, but there's no way
it would be here in time for the auction.
I'm just going to make the decision to pull it.
So I then made a Hail Mary pass
and purchased a gas-powered super crazy
over-the-top exotic sports car
hoping that it would be crazy enough to bring in
a whole new demographic of buyers
that we lost when we lost the RV truck.
What is this thing?
Well, it's actually two Corvettes put together.
[Heavy D] And after buying this Corvette,
we decided to drive it home from Reno.
Unfortunately, we only made it about five miles.
[Diesel Dave] Oh, come on, don't overheat.
We stop and check the coolant levels?
So now we pulled over to do some roadside maintenance.
Pour a couple of these bad boys in first.
Change the thermostat, pour in more coolant.
Coolant, check. Ice, check.
New cab, check. Filter, check.
Added a new air filter.
See how far we get this time, huh?
If we can't get this car back on the road, I mean, honestly, we're just kind of screwed.
Like, we're just going to have to take the big L there
because the auction is less than a week away.
[Dave speaking]
[Heavy D speaking]
[Heavy D] Made it about nine miles from the last stop at the parts store
and it got really hot again.
It's like we didn't do anything at all.
It's literally just overheated immediately.
She gone.
[Heavy D] So now we're going to tackle the airflow issue by removing the hood.
Back on the road.
Here we go.
I love a good adventure.
Come on, baby. Stay cool.
Should we put the hood back on, you think?
Uh... Park her put her on Craigslist.
[laughing]
So after removing the hood, we've decided that
there's not much else we can do for this Corvette on the side of the road.
We're forced to throw this thing on a trailer,
get it towed back to the shop, and then we'll assess the damages there.
And honestly, at this point, I'm just really hoping
that I didn't just waste $11,000 on something
that isn't going to be ready in time for the auction.
[Diesel Dave] Corvette's off to a pretty rocky start.
We know this auction is going to happen no matter what,
and we need to generate revenue in the business to keep it going.
So the bread and butter of our business has always been giveaways.
Right now it's giveaway time.
[Heavy D] Listen, we've got an amazing response to our most recent giveaways.
[screaming]
[people cheering]
But something's been missing lately.
We've not gone big in a long time.
I'm talking badass lift, big tires, maybe even a dually.
Just a super reliable work truck.
This giveaway needs to be big, and there's only one person
that I can think that should be in charge.
I want to be in charge of this giveaway.
-Oh, this is your giveaway? -This is my giveaway.
Okay.
Giveaways are our business.
We cannot have one flop.
If you take the reins, you have to ride that pony into the wind,
valiantly into the sunset, victorious in all your actions.
-You know I will. You know I will. -I know you will.
Anyone can take a heavy duty truck
and make it bigger, but to make it worthy of a giveaway,
I'm going to have to find one that speaks to me.
How are you going to talk to any trucks?
If it speaks to you, how are you going to,
how are you going to understand what it says?
You put me in a truck lot, I hear a lot of things in my head.
Ever since I was a little kid...
I've had this secret.
I can talk to trucks.
That's called, uh, an imagination.
Do they call to you?
It's that way.
That way?
[mimics engine revving]
Previous owner beat the hell out of that truck.
We don't want that truck.
-A flatbed. -Dually... Cummins.
[gibberish]
He said, "As a flatbed, I cannot give you what you need."
Hold on.
[gibberish]
What does its voice sound like?
Sounds like a really old man.
We've done too many Ram giveaways lately.
Otherwise, I think this would be the truck.
I'm going to find Nate. He's going to help us.
Hey, Nate.
I've got some stuff that just came in.
-You want to take a look? -Yeah, absolutely I do.
This is why we talk to Nate.
We should've talked to Nate in the first place.
-You didn't walk back here, did you? -No.
Wait a second.
That's a new truck. Brand new.
Is it speaking to you?
Yeah, it's speaking really loud.
Hold on. Let me get my hand on it.
[gibberish]
I think this is the truck.
-Is it new? -Brand new.
-It's stock. -Stock.
So you can put your stamp on it.
It's a dually.
It's a GMC Denali.
It's everything I need.
There's one thing.
What?
I don't want to break your heart,
but there's a reason it's back here.
-Oh. -Oh.
That's not a small one.
No.
I think that saves us a lot of money.
-Right, Nate? -Yeah.
What were you going to list this at?
That's a $85,000 truck.
-You know what? I like you, Nate. -Call it, call it 70...
76
...79.5.
-Yeah? -You're saying yes to that?
That's a pretty good deal for this truck.
All right. 79.5.
-We take it right now... as is. -As is.
All right. You got yourself a deal. Let's go get the paperwork.
I'm driving this home. You're driving my truck home.
Letting Muscle be in charge of this giveaway
is actually really helpful for me because I've got to focus my time
and attention on this Corvette and get it ready for the auction in time.
However, he did just spend a lot of money,
and I'm talking a lot of money on this new giveaway truck,
-so I really hope he knows what he's doing. -Me too.
[grunting]
You ready?
Ta-da.
What's better than one Corvette?
Two Corvettes.
It's dos Corvettes put into one.
Two... Why have anybody two Corvette?
Why not?
We went out and bought it because who doesn't want two Corvettes?
There are less than five of these Crew Cab Corvettes made in the entire world.
So it's definitely something people aren't going to find anywhere else.
But in order to get people to bid on it,
it can't leave them stranded in the middle of the highway.
So we're going to need to do some investigating to find out what's going on.
Yee-hew!
[Dwight speaking]
-Leaking? -Yeah.
-Come. Look here. Look-- -Ohh, yeah.
That is leaking...
Yeah, the water pump is bad.
Yeah.
Well, that explains a lot of, amigo.
Explains why it was overheating.
-Good, amigo. -[Diesel Dave] Jesus.
That's some hot water.
The water pumps leaking.
It's tells us it isn't functioning properly,
which could explain our overheating issue
since the main function of the water pump
is to take fluid from the radiator in the engine block
and back into the cooling system.
All right.
Oh, Still got some water with it.
-Drain it out. -Yeah.
Yeah.
That's the hole where the water was flowing out of, right?
[Muscle] Yeah.
All water pumps have what's called a weep hole.
It's there to warn the driver if there's a leak.
A small amount of seepage is normal.
However, we have a substantial amount of water coming out,
which tells us we have a problem with the pump itself.
All right. Gotta call the boss. You wanna see?
[line ringing]
What's up?
You remember how when we were driving down the road,
the windshield got all covered in coolant and couldn't see out of it?
It's funny. That's something I do remember. Yeah.
[Diesel Dave] Yeah, well, that's because there's a leak in our water pump.
It was getting hot before that, so are we sure that's the only problem?
We're also changing out the spark plugs
because they're pretty dirty and nasty.
Yep. I'll run and grab some stuff. I'll bring it by.
All right, buddy. We'll get this torn up and we'll be waiting for you.
-Sounds good. -Okay, buddy. Later.
-Yeah. -Let's do it.
Let's do it to it.
While we wait for parts for the Corvette,
I'm going to lend a hand to the latest giveaway truck.
Guys, I did something.
-Uh-oh. -Uh-oh.
Yeah. You have to let me know whether I did a good thing or a bad thing,
but I gave the reins of the next giveaway to The Muscle.
-That's bad. -Bad. Bad idea.
[Diesel Dave] You think so?
There he is.
Ah-ha. What do you think?
-[man 2] Nice truck... -Not bad, right?
[Diesel Dave] The Muscle has already spent a ton of money
on the truck we're using for the giveaway.
And I hope that whatever he has planned for the build is going to blow people away
because we need to turn a lot of heads
and generate a lot of revenue to fill up the bank account
because it's looking pretty bare
after we spent all this money on these auction vehicles.
2021 GMC Denali Dually.
And this giveaway is mine.
What did it say to you?
-On the ride here? -Yeah.
-I want to be real big. -Okay.
Like, double my size now.
Like this?
-What are you guys doing? -We're getting big. You asked for double.
[bleep] geez.
-Like double? -Yeah.
-[Diesel Dave] It makes sense. -That's exactly what I was--
-It's going to get big. -Double in size.
What did the giveaway truck tell you?
What is its build plan?
If you follow me on back, you'll see a very big fuel transfer tank.
[Diesel Dave] Yes.
[The Muscle] Now, this tank works the way it's supposed to,
but it's missing something really important
and that's the ability to pull an actual handle out
and fill up another vehicle alongside, so...
This Denali is a luxury truck, which means in addition to going big,
we got to add some bells and whistles.
First, we'll modify the gas tank
so we can add a custom handle pump
that will allow you to refuel any toys right from your main truck.
We'll add a custom headache rack, new front and rear bumper,
dechrome and paint match everything.
Finally, to make it big and beefy,
we'll give it an eight inch lift
and 37-inch tires, new wheels and lights all the way around.
I need this to go smoothly because this is my giveaway.
So what do you need from us then?
I need you to take this and start getting it all torn apart
because we've got to get it to the paint booth immediately.
I need you to come with me.
We need to figure out the headache rack.
-Sure, amigo. -Let's go.
Let's pull it in.
This is a new truck.
It's an expensive truck.
So I really hope the changes that I'm making
are going to get people excited to enter the giveaway,
or I'm going to be hearing it from Heavy D and Red Beard.
It runs.
[Roman] Is it good enough for your action?
It's not perfect.
[Heavy D] New water pump.
It has two more fins on it to be able to move water more efficiently.
Oh, [bleep] man.
Why did it do that?
In a Diesel Brothers first, The Muscle is in charge of our next giveaway
and he's going big.
[The Muscle] 2021 GMC Denali.
-What are you guys doing? -We're getting big.
[Diesel Dave] So while his soon-to-be giant giveaway truck
gets torn down and ready for paint match,
well, Heavy D here can focus on an even bigger problem.
Park her put her on Craigslist.
This one of a kind custom Crew Cab Corvette
broke down on the side of the road,
and we had to trailer it back to the shop from Reno.
And once it got there, Diesel Dave started digging into it
and found that the water pump was completely toast.
Oh, yeah.
That is leaking out there.
Yeah, the water pump is bad.
Yeah.
[Heavy D] I really hope that these new parts are
what's needed to fix the Crew Cab Corvette,
because with the auction literally just days away,
you know, we spent $11,000 on this car
banking on the fact that it would bring in
a whole different demographic of high end bidders to spend money at our auction.
All right, amigo.
We got all sorts of goodies here, including new water pump.
All right.
Change these.
The whole purpose of this water pump is to circulate the coolant
through the engine of the Corvette.
This is at a lower point on the engine.
Water pushes up against it and then once the engine turns over,
this blade right here starts spinning,
which then throws water through,
you know, the outlet, which then goes through the engine,
through the radiator, through the whole system,
and then back into the water pump and re-circulates.
That's why we were overheating,
because it's not moving water through the engine the way that it's supposed to,
which no matter how much airflow you get,
if you're not moving water through the engine...
The old water pump is obviously not in great condition.
The new one is an improved model
which has two more fins on it to be able to move water more efficiently.
So replacing the water pump is the right move.
Will it solve all the problems? I don't know.
Some 350 gas engines don't need that port for cooling.
Our Corvette has some sort of either heater core or some other system
where it needs water to shoot out of there.
So rather than capping off, we're going to use the old piece
that we have thread it in there.
In that way, we have all of our stock cooling ports.
Now it's ready to be installed.
Good?
-[Diesel Dave] Vamanos. -[Heavy D] Back to work.
Go right here.
All right. We got the water pump installed,
and now we're putting the fan back on.
[indistinct chatter]
-It's everything, right? -Yep.
We were able to get the tune up done.
We've got spark plugs installed, new plug wires,
the water pump, sealed up some old gaskets,
and we're ready for a test drive.
Right now, we just want to know
if we have the overheating issue fixed.
Super excited about it.
[Heavy D] Well, she's still a little groggy.
Getting me nervous right there.
[Heavy D] Cruising down the road. Get on the freeway.
Everything's looking good.
It's got to be a lawnmower motor.
But it shifts like it's a race car.
And then...
Holy [bleep]!
Something explodes under the hood.
Windshield's covered with coolant.
Why did it do that?
Couldn't see anything.
I'm having a flashback.
This is exactly how it was driving home from Reno.
Why is the coolant level staying low?
This feels a lot like when we bought the car.
The Corvette's still broken, still overheating,
and honestly, we're almost out of ideas.
Here's what we need to do. New hoses.
We need to check the temperature sensor.
We need to bleed the system, make sure there's no bubbles in it, and try again.
We already sunk ten grand into the M-919 Army truck build.
I can't find a bed in time for the auction for this.
I'm just gonna make the decision to pull it.
There's no sense in running this thing through the auction half-assed
and leaving us with a big gaping hole.
And then we got another 11 grand in this Corvette.
So if both of these vehicles end up not being, you know,
ready for the auction, that means we're out over $20,000.
I mean, there's still more work that has to be done.
The Corvette, I don't know if it's going to make it.
However, I have an idea that's going to kind of help us
hedge our bets to be able to have enough exciting, unique,
interesting vehicles at the auction to bring in those unique buyers.
And even though it's not something that belongs to us,
I feel like a consignment is definitely the right move right now
considering we got some holes to fill.
This dude told me he saw the announcement
with the rollover car on the internet.
Yeah!
And that got him thinking about the auction
and then he's like, "Hey, I got a couple of vehicles."
Did you tell him it's a 'no reserve' auction?
He's going to find out soon enough.
This guy, Roman, who owns a dealership here in Utah,
told me that he has some of these diesel powered Land Rover Defenders
that are supposedly in really good condition.
So these are your Land Rovers.
I would like to get this blue one.
It's a 300 TDI, manual transmission, right-hand drive.
It's a 88 with 124,000 miles.
The Land Rover Defenders are, it's really one of the most iconic vehicles ever built.
These boxy truck like 4x4s were first made in the UK,
and they were sold into the United States
for a very brief period during the '90s.
These things are notorious for being rugged, capable,
easy to work on mechanically, and now, they have this crazy cult following
because they're actually pretty difficult
to import into the States now because it has to be, sort of,
year and there's all this red tape.
Many people like it because of the classy look,
but for some reason they come for this
and they always buy a different one.
[Heavy D] That does have that nice vintage look.
And that's roof rack.
Makes you feel like you are going to like...
-Safari. Yeah. -Safari.
[Heavy D] I love the iconic look of the four-door wagon,
and I think it will be the right pick for the auction as long as it performs.
I think you should test it better than we tested the Corvette.
This literally feels like we're driving around in the UK.
Just gloomy and rainy.
Right hand.
Drive on the left side of the road.
[Heavy D] I'm starting to feel really good about this visit.
This thing's got great airflow.
Getting a classic diesel vehicle like this into our auction,
it'll be huge because we already know that
these vehicles have a tremendous following.
So even though we're only going to get a small percentage
as a consignment fee for selling it,
the amount of buyers that this will attract, worth it.
It runs.
[Roman] Is it good enough for your action?
I think so.
It's not perfect, but I think it is perfect for the auction.
It's not been modified.
So I think people who are into original, you know,
defenders are going to be into this.
I think we are going to make a deal with him to consign his Land Rover to the auction.
And the thing that he has to understand is it's a no reserve auction.
So not only is this risky for Roman,
but it's also risky for me as the guy promoting this auction.
If his vehicles sell for way less than what he's trying to get, that's not good.
That's not good for our relationship.
It doesn't look good for anybody except for the buyer
who got a really good deal on a Land Rover.
What are you thinking as far as what kind of money
would you like to see these things get?
I want to get at least 27,000.
Let's make it happen, all right?
Sounds good.
Pump going in.
Oh, ho-ho, ho, ho!
-Look at the flow. -Tell me that's not 15 gallons per minute.
Confidence is super high, through the roof.
-She does have some get up and go. -Yeah.
Holy [bleep]!
Something explodes under the hood.
Windshield's covered with coolant.
Why did it do that?
[Diesel Dave] This Crew Cab Corvette was supposed to bring
a whole new type of buyer to the auction after we spent
$10,000 on a military vehicle that never made it out of teardown,
and we're running out of time to fix it.
Here's what we need to do.
New hoses, we need to check the temperature sensor, we need to bleed the system,
make sure there's no bubbles in it, and try again.
Meanwhile, for better or for worse,
The Muscle is in charge of the current giveaway truck.
He already went out and spent a ton of money
on buying just the truck to start with.
[Diesel Dave] The Muscle's already got it torn down,
paint-matched the bumper and all the other pieces,
and now he's ready to add a whole bunch of extras.
Hey, yo.
Guess what I got?
What did you get? What you got?
Parts for that transfer tank.
Hell, yeah, buddy.
All right. Check this out.
I don't really know why anybody would have one of these tanks
and not have a way to transfer that fuel to another.
The Denali already comes equipped with a huge in-bed auxiliary fuel tank,
but that only refuels the truck's tank.
That's not going to be good enough for my giveaway truck.
I need to take it one step further to make this giveaway
appealing to everybody to enter and win.
So we're going to take the auxiliary tank that's in the back.
We're going to install a fuel transfer pump
so that if we need to give fuel to someone else, we'll be able to do it.
How many times on the farm or in construction sites
are you going to need to fill something up
and it's like, "Oh, I got to go to the gas station."
So this will be a nice added bonus
to having 200 gallons in the back of the truck.
And the hose that I got, if you'll see, is actually long enough.
So if I need to, we can really reach if we have to.
Yeah.
First, we got to pull the tank out of the truck.
Removing all the bolts, plumbing and wiring.
Then we cut a hole in the tank for the new pump to be welded to.
All right.
Here's our bong which attaches to the tank, which will then,
of course, serve as the attachment to the pump itself.
Ooh-hoo-hoo.
So now that we know that it fits, we'll get it all cleaned up
and prepped for welding.
After we get it prepped, we can take it outside, rinse it.
After it's rinsed, we can bring it back in, I can weld it in.
-Let's go, bro. -Then we can finish the install.
[The Muscle] When you work on anything in the fuel system of any diesel truck,
you have to make sure that you don't have things
inside the fuel tank, whether it's dirt particles.
In our case, it's metal shavings,
because that will then circulate through the fuel system
and mess everything up.
Then it's going to come back on me and that ain't happening.
Oh, yeah. Look at those metal shavings coming out.
Cause that fuel is filthy.
All right.
-It looks like we got all the metal out. -Yeah.
-You ready for welding? -Yep.
[indistinct chatter]
Bit back.
Pump going in.
I'll hold it up. You wanna screw that back.
Hang on to the hose.
All right, America, we're going to see if this pump will
suck fuel out of this tank and see if this actually works.
Pull that out.
All right. Turn it on.
Oh, ho-ho, ho, ho.
Whoa!
Hey, Justin, look at the flow.
Tell me that's not 15 gallons per minute.
And we're done.
No more.
All right, fellas. I'm not seeing any leaks.
And it looks air tight to me.
I'm happy with how this thing turned out.
Let's get a LINE-X and get it back in the back of the bed.
I agree.
Boom.
Bam.
So while The Muscle makes progress on the giveaway truck,
the clock is ticking on our latest auction build.
The Crew Cab Corvette, Heavy D's unicorn,
that was supposed to be a quick flip, we've yet been able to drive it
without a blasting of coolant and smoke.
It seems like the water pump didn't do the trick.
So Vodka removed all of our old hoses.
Well, I got all the new ones that we can install
that will hopefully resolve our overheating issue once and for all.
See?
Gotcha. Yep.
You got a crack right there, and it seems like it's really weak.
This is...
-Do goody. -More durable.
It's like a new balloon versus a balloon I've blown up ten different times.
-Exactly. -[Diesel Dave] Weak.
First step, they'll get the hose on. So we take another test drive.
-This hose goes on first. -This one will go first.
And then we'll cut this one and figure out where it needs to be.
The cooling system has two hoses, a supply hose and a return hose.
Supply hose delivers the coolant to the motor
while the return hose takes it back to the radiator.
-Okay. -Yah, amigo.
All right. Supply lines in, fans back on.
Now, we just got put in the return line.
Do you think we're gonna have to cut it?
Uh, maybe a little bit.
In our case, both hoses were damaged because, after all, they are 50 years old.
Now that we've replaced them, moving forward, we should have much better water flow.
-Hey. -Hey.
-Come on. -Ready.
Ready? Is it really ready?
Yeah, it's ready.
Look, new supply line, new return line.
So it's ready to go for a drive?
-Yeah. -Yeah, ready for it.
I'm still stressing out about whether this Corvette
is going to be fixed or not because here's the thing,
if the water pump didn't do it and these new hoses don't do it,
then we're going deeper inside the engine,
which we're actually not going to do
because we don't have the time or the money to do it for the big auction.
And this could be just a huge waste of money.
[Diesel Dave] We're good to go.
Holy...
It's more like it.
-It does have some get up and go. -Yeah.
Where was this yesterday?
-In the timing, I guess. -It's all about...
[together] Timing.
If you guys don't use that, you're out of your damn minds.
Finally, this Corvette is staying as cool as it looks.
So now we just need to make an adjustment to the timing for the spark plugs
and the ignition so that all that stuff is running properly
and bringing the heat down even more.
And even though we're really, really close,
I still don't know if this thing's going to be able to make it
across the finish line in time for the big auction.
Silverback.
-You know what? -It's perfect.
We're only days away from our big diesel auction,
and we're working like crazy to get the Corvette done
along with finishing touches on a bunch of our other old Diesel Brothers builds.
On top of that, we have to get a giveaway truck ready.
[Diesel Dave] There he is.
-Ah-ha! What do you think? -Nice truck.
Not bad, right?
[Diesel Dave] The Muscle bought a brand new premium truck
that he wants to turn into a giant with all the bells and whistles,
but so far, all he's done is a little paint match.
We're done.
No more.
So before he adds the giant lift,
he's going to build the custom headache rack to protect the cab.
All right. What are we cutting first?
We will cut everything, amigo.
-All of it? -Yeah.
This isn't some plain Jane headache rack that you can buy at the store.
I had Iram draw plans for a custom one-off headache rack
that you can only get on my build.
And today we're putting it together.
-Let's do it. -Yeah.
Push the start button.
-[The Muscle] Are you sure? -[man 3] Si, I'm sure.
I got it.
[The Muscle] We're going to cut out the pieces
for Iram's design on the plasma table.
This thing can cut overall shape as well as small details.
Silverback.
This is going to look really good.
Going to up the value of that truck and help me do
a better job of making a really good giveaway.
Let's get this logo cleaned up.
Now it's for the fun part.
You think that you just cut all this out
and then you just tack weld it together.
But a good fabricator builds in parts that will actually be
bent on the bending machine and come together
so there won't be as many welds.
Okay.
-Right in the line, amigo. -I see it.
Boom.
All right, that's it.
One piece down, six more pieces and probably 25 more bends.
Okay, 28.
Well, there you have it, America.
Iram took a flat piece of metal, cut it out,
and then bent it so we don't have to do all of these welds.
All right, you ready?
-I'm ready, amigo. Let's try it. -Let's take it off.
Here we go.
Ooh.
That's heavy.
Oh, ho, ho.
Amigo.
-Bueno? -Bueno.
-Nice work, buddy. -Thank you, amigo.
You know what? It's perfect.
Only thing you got left are the bed rails
and then obviously, to weld everything together and we got to get it painted.
In the meantime, I got lift, wheels and tires.
I got to get.
-Proud of you, buddy. -Ah, amigo.
See you.
[The Muscle] And now that the fab work is done,
we can get everything powder-coated.
The guys can get to work beefing up the stands.
We're adding 26-inch wheels, massive eight-inch McGaughys lift
and 37-inch off road tires.
Really hoping that this comes together
and we get a good response to the truck online.
I'm really putting a lot of faith in The Muscle
and being able to get this giveaway truck done,
built and ready to go before the auction.
Our last auction vehicle is definitely a wild card.
We managed to tame its unruly engine, fix the timing
and polished up both Corvette bodies.
Turn the distributor clockwise a little bit.
Just below four.
That's a good place for it. Yeah.
The auction is only a couple of days away,
so that means we don't have a ton of time left to be able to put, like,
all the finishing touches and, you know, the big diesel stamp
on this Corvette that we would like to.
However, we were able to film one seriously [bleep] commercial,
which I believe is going to be enough to get people here
and get real excited about this specimen of a car.
It's probably the best commercial of all time.
[spark crackling]
What if we could create the perfect sports car using your computer?
Why would we do that? We have an auto shop.
Yeah, but I'm talking about something that we've never done before.
It can't be modern.
It needs to be classic, but it can't be too old.
Ah, like a 1978?
No.
'79.
Needs to be light and fast.
So no diesel?
[Diesel Dave] It needs to be able to fit my family.
So, extra seats.
What?
It's got to be able to make people do a double take.
[sparks crackling]
Perfect.
[both screaming]
[explosion]
[indistinct shouting]
[engine revving]
The Diesel Brothers Double Corvette
only at the Diesel Brothers
Diesel-with-the- exception-of-a-few-gas vehicles auction.
In the end, we only spent $535 to get the Corvette up and running
and do that nice commercial with it.
Add that to the 11 grand that we spent on it
and, you know, there might still be a chance we make some money on it.
Plus all the other vehicles we built,
plus the cost of the ones that we already had that we're giving up.
Why are you the guy that just constantly reminds me of, like, the stressful stuff?
Paul, are you ready to become part of the dually family?
I'm ready. Let's do this.
Here it comes.
Yeah, look at that beast. That's yours, man.
-[John] Oh, my God. That thing is huge. -[Diesel Dave] The Silverback.
-[John] This thing is beautiful. -Thanks, guys.
[Diesel Dave] Now that our latest giveaway, Silverback, is
coming to an end, it's time to narrow it down to the ten finalists
from all the thousands of entries and pick a winner.
What's up, America?
It's time to find out where the new home of Silverback,
the giveaway truck is going to be.
Them and myself will be drawing a name out of this hat
and the fastest time up the wall wins Silverback.
Yeah!
Are you ready?
Are you ready... Oh, gosh.
[laughter]
One name rose to the top.
Go Hunter!
Whoa! What!
You're a spider monkey.
Oh!
7.59.
John Paul, you just won Silver back!
You did...
We're wrapping up our latest giveaway,
a 2021 Denali that The Muscle has been in charge of.
This truck turned into a beast worthy of its name, Silverback.
It's like a big old gorilla that built it.
Now it's time to meet the winner
who beat out hundreds of thousands of other entries and give it away.
John Paul, welcome to Utah, man.
Oh, thank you, bud. I'm so excited to be here.
-Big day today. -A huge day.
I'm finally going to be able to see Silverback,
the truck that I won from the giveaway and I am just so excited.
Have you ever won a truck before?
I've never won a truck before.
Have you been trying to get in our do to win ours?
Yeah, I started in 2018.
-You did? -So, yeah. Yes.
I've been entering for the last couple of years for your trucks.
Well, you've waited for the perfect one
because the theme of this giveaway is big,
and it seems like you fit the description perfectly.
Gotta be perfect because I love big trucks.
John Paul, are you ready to become part of the dually family?
I'm ready. Let's do this.
Hey, yo, Muscle, bring in the beast!
On my way.
[both laughing]
[John] Here it comes.
Yeah. Look at that beast.
-That's yours, man! The Silverback. -[John] Oh, my God.
-That thing is huge. -Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
[John] Oh, my God. This thing is beautiful.
Nobody has a truck like this, John Paul.
Nobody except for you.
-Dude. -Yeah.
This is awesome.
When Muscle was driving up, the first thing that it is
that caught my eye was the headache rack with Silverback's name in it.
It makes the proportion of the truck look so great.
Get yourself in there and sit down.
Then you'll see how big it really is.
Oh, my God.
-Dude, this thing is so awesome. -No way.
-It kind of makes him look small. -Yeah, it does.
I know you want to soak there in that seat,
but let me walk you through what we did.
When I put this together, I wanted to make sure of two things.
It was usable, but it was also very big.
-So... -[Diesel Dave] Huge.
[The Muscle] We went with the McGaughys eight-inch
suspension kit with a 37-inch tire.
A super single 24X12 up front JTX forged wheel.
It looks awesome.
[The muscle] Fusion bumper up front and a fusion rear bumper to match.
These bumpers are absolutely awesome.
Especially in LA traffic.
-Yes. -Yes.
-That'll be perfect. -Yeah.
So the one thing that sometimes people miss
when they build trucks is paint matching.
When we bought this truck, there was quite a bit of chrome throughout.
We took the chrome off and paint-matched everything.
Now, obviously, you know, this is a dually
we did a 1450 tire from Fury up front
and we did 1350 tires in the rear.
Cool.
[The Muscle] And this is a custom diesel power gear headache rack
done by the boys in Sparks Motors with the Silverback logo
and everything you want in style and power.
The last thing I want to show you, that beautiful fuel tank.
I still can't believe this part of it.
This is good for two things.
One, if you ever run out of fuel, you can use it,
but you can pull up to any job site with anything that needs fuel
and as you can see, you got yourself a handle.
It'll be so much fun, especially out at the dunes with ATVs.
It's perfect.
Dude, this thing is unbelievable.
I mean, it's so much more than what I ever expected.
-Yes! -[John] It's just so awesome.
So you're saying I knocked it out of the park?
-Oh, way out of the park. -That's all I wanted to know.
-Thank you. -That's all I wanted to know.
-I want one of those. -Absolutely. I want one of those.
-Yeah. -Yeah.
-Get in the driver's seat, I'll get in the passenger. -Yeah.
Back, middle of the hump.
All right.
Let's go.
You got it, John Paul.
[indistinct chatter]
Nice.
Wow. This thing drives so well.
So now that I've actually had a chance to get into Silverback, drive it,
see everything it's capable of doing.
It's the greatest thing ever.
I still can't believe I won it.
I'm so excited. It's going to be so much fun.
The Muscle ended up doing an incredible job on the giveaway truck,
and he got Silverback to its new owner just in the nick of time
