Ep 1. Rare Chevelle

In episode 1 of season 4 of All Girls Garage, the trio of mechanics, Jessi Combs, Bogi Lateiner, and Cristy Lee, take on the restoration of a rare Chevelle. The car arrived at the garage in a state of disrepair, with rust damage, mechanical issues, and a whole lot of missing parts.

As they delve into the project, the team faces some interesting challenges. They quickly discover that the Chevelle is not a typical model, but instead a rare version that was only produced for a few years. This means that finding replacement parts will require some serious hunting and creative problem-solving.

To get started, the crew needs to get the car up on the lift to assess the damage. They discover that the frame is in decent shape, but the engine and suspension need a lot of work. They quickly get in touch with some of their contacts in the auto industry to help track down the missing and damaged parts.

As they wait for the parts to arrive, the team focuses on the bodywork. They remove the rust and repair the dents and dings that have accumulated over years of use. They take particular care to preserve the original paint job, which is in surprisingly good condition given the age of the car.

Once the parts start to arrive, the crew sets to work getting the engine and suspension back in shape. They replace a variety of components, including the brakes, shocks, and fuel system. They also take the time to upgrade some of the parts for better performance and reliability.

As the project progresses, the team faces a variety of challenges. They discover that some of the parts they need are not available for this particular model, which requires them to get creative and figure out how to adapt other components to make them work. They also have to deal with unexpected complications that arise as they work on the car, such as broken bolts and stripped threads.

Despite the challenges, the team is determined to restore the Chevelle to its former glory. They work tirelessly, putting in long hours to make sure that every detail is perfect. They take pride in their work, and it shows in the results.

By the end of the episode, the Chevelle is transformed from a rusted-out hulk to a sleek and powerful muscle car. The crew has restored it to its former glory, and it looks and runs better than ever. Viewers are left inspired by the hard work and dedication of the team, and eager to see what challenges they will take on next.
