In season 4 episode 6 of Vegas Rat Rods, titled "One Big Gas Car," the crew at Welder Up faces a daunting challenge as they try to turn a 1935 Mack Truck into a one-of-a-kind gas car. The client has requested a unique vehicle that stands out from the crowd, and the team at Welder Up is determined to deliver.
The episode begins with Steve Darnell, the owner of Welder Up, and his crew surveying the 1935 Mack Truck that is their latest project. It’s a massive truck, with a flatbed that dwarfs most cars and even some trucks. Steve and his team know they have their work cut out for them, but they're confident they can transform this rusting hulk into something extraordinary.
The team starts by stripping the Mack Truck down to its frame. They remove the rusty body and start inspecting the engine and the transmission. They quickly realize that they need a new engine if they want this car to run. Steve and his team decide on a 1969 Cummins diesel engine, which they think will give the gas car a lot of power while still being reliable.
As they work on the gas car, the crew members face several challenges. They have to weld new mounts for the engine and transmission, and they also have to figure out how to fit a new fuel tank onto the car without compromising its unique design. The team also has to install new suspension parts to ensure that the car can handle the weight of the engine and the flatbed.
Throughout the episode, we see the Welder Up crew working tirelessly to make sure that every aspect of the gas car is perfect. They try different designs for the fuel tank, and they puzzle over how to fit a giant exhaust pipe onto the car without it looking out of place. The team also spends a lot of time working on the car's body, trying to come up with a design that will make the gas car stand out even more.
One of the most memorable moments in the episode is when Steve and his crew come up with a unique way to make the car’s exhaust pipe look amazing. They create a custom exhaust system that's so unique it's sure to turn heads wherever the gas car goes. The team also spends a lot of time working on the interior, designing custom seats and a dashboard that matches the car's unique personality.
Finally, after several weeks of hard work, the gas car is ready for a test drive. The crew members gather around as Steve turns the key, and the engine roars to life. The gas car looks amazing and sounds even better, and everyone is thrilled to see the project finally come together. Steve takes the gas car out for a spin, and it performs beautifully, with plenty of power and torque to spare.
Overall, season 4 episode 6 of Vegas Rat Rods is a thrilling and exciting installment in the series.
