In the season 2 episode 12 of Full Custom Garage, entitled "Jack's Wild Ride Part 2," viewers are taken on a thrilling ride as they follow the team at Martin Bros Customs as they attempt to modify a 2007 Mustang GT500. When the car first arrived at the garage, it was in pretty rough condition. However, the crew at Martin Bros was up to the challenge and quickly got to work bringing this beast back to life.
The main focal point of the episode is the engine of the Mustang. With the car being fitted with a supercharged V8, it's no surprise that the Martin Bros team decided to put their own unique spin on it. Starting with the supercharger, which was replaced with an upgraded version, the team also added a larger throttle body and a custom intake system to make sure that the engine was breathing properly. Additionally, they upgraded the exhaust system to allow the car to breathe better and give it an even more aggressive sound.
Once the engine upgrades were complete, it was time for the team to turn their attention to the car's exterior. In keeping with the Mustang's muscle car heritage, the Martin Bros crew added a custom hood with a massive scoop and a bolt-on front splitter. They also shaved the door handles and added a custom grille and billet taillights.
Of course, no car build would be complete without a custom paint job, and this Mustang was no exception. The team at Martin Bros decided to go with a stunning two-tone paint job featuring a matte black finish on the bottom and a brilliant red on the top half of the car. The paint is accented by a set of custom matte black wheels wrapped in low profile rubber.
As with all Full Custom Garage episodes, the focus isn't just on the build, but also on the unique challenges that the team encounters along the way. In this case, the main challenge comes in the form of figuring out how to get the car's massive engine to fit under the hood without sacrificing performance. Additionally, there is some drama when the team discovers that the car's previous owner had attempted some questionable modifications, leading to some head-scratching moments as they try and figure out how to fix them.
Overall, "Jack's Wild Ride Part 2" is an exciting and entertaining episode that showcases the incredible workmanship and attention to detail that the team at Martin Bros Customs is known for. Whether you're a fan of muscle cars, or simply appreciate quality custom builds, this episode is sure to be a hit.
