Ep 3. One Piece at a Time

In the season 9 episode 3 of Full Custom Garage titled "One Piece at a Time," viewers are taken on a journey as host Ian Roussel works on transforming a 1930s Chevy panel truck.

The episode begins with Ian and his team receiving the panel truck, which has been sitting idle for years. The truck, which is in a state of disrepair, is in desperate need of a complete overhaul.

Ian starts by removing the body of the truck from the chassis to get a better look at what needs to be done. He then proceeds to repair the rusted frame and install a new suspension.

Next, Ian turns his attention to the engine. Being an avid car enthusiast, Ian decides to use a 1960s Chevy big-block engine that has been lying around in his garage for quite some time. He then installs an old-school carburetor, which adds to the truck's vintage vibe.

Ian then sets out to tackle the truck's body, which is riddled with holes and dents. He first welds in new patches to cover the holes and then proceeds to work on the dents. Using his years of experience, he smoothens out the body and sprays it with a classic glossy black paint.

After finishing the bodywork, Ian turns his attention to the interior. The old, torn seats are replaced with new ones, and he installs new flooring to complete the look. The final touch is a custom-made dashboard that is reminiscent of the '30s era.

Overall, "One Piece at a Time" is a fantastic episode that showcases Ian's skills as a custom car builder. The episode is a must-watch for anyone who loves vintage cars and enjoys watching the transformation of a rusty, old vehicle into a beautiful, custom one.
