As a car rebuilding enthusiast, you should not miss the second episode of the fifth season of Roadkill Garage. In this episode named "Mopar Muscle Boat," the dynamic duo, David Freiburger and Steve Dulcich, tackle a one-of-a-kind project as they transform a sleek 1967 Plymouth Fury from a land-based road warrior to a water-roaming speedster.

The episode begins with David and Steve making a bet on whether the classic car can be converted into a boat. They set to work, cutting and welding the car's body to fit a boat hull that they had created from plywood and fiberglass. The pair is determined to make it work, despite obstacles such as leaks and uneven weight distribution.

The project takes on a new dimension when they decide to install a 1973 Dodge 440 Big Block engine in the vehicle. This modification significantly increases the car's weight and prompts David and Steve to make several adjustments, including repositioning the gas tanks and adding extra support beams to the frame.

As they work on the boat's exterior, they don't forget the interior. The boys give the car an entirely new look by installing a custom dashboard and new seats. They also install a new steering wheel, which looks vintage despite being brand new. The end result is a beautiful-looking car that is sure to turn heads whether on the road or while cruising down the river.

Finally, the big moment arrives. David and Steve take the boat-car out for a test run on a nearby lake to see whether their creation can float and move on the water. This segment of the show is the most suspenseful part as we wait to see whether the car will sink or swim. With David behind the wheel and Steve operating a homemade rudder, the boat-car slowly cruises over the water. Although there are a few minor setbacks, the boat-car ultimately exceeds expectations and performs better than anyone could have predicted.

In conclusion, "Mopar Muscle Boat" is an unforgettable episode that showcases the creativity and ingenuity of David and Steve as they take on a seemingly impossible challenge. This entertaining installment of Roadkill Garage is sure to appeal to car enthusiasts, boaters, and anyone who appreciates a good underdog story. Don't miss your chance to see the boat-car in action.
