2024 Chrysler Pacifica: Buyer's Guide Breakdown

On episode 40 of Roadkill, a new project car is introduced: the Crop Duster! It’s a 1970 Plymouth Duster that David Freiburger forgot he owned—a result of multiple trades with a buddy, and at least five years of neglect in the dirt of a grape farm. Once he was reminded of the car—and with a 440 Mopar big-block sitting on the shop floor (salvaged from the General Mayhem 1968 Charger)—it was evident what needed to happen. Freiburger and Mike Finnegan headed up to the farm run by Steve Dulcich to drag the Duster out of its moss-covered indignity and attempted to get the 440 in the car and running, driving, and doing smoky burnouts within five days. Along the way, the trio did engine upgrades, butchered some headers, built a homemade driveshaft, cobbled together a used exhaust system, did some half-hearted bodywork, and executed other mechanical feats the likes of which you’ve come to expect from Roadkill. Then it was off to the chassis dyno and the dragstrip.

An abandoned Mach 1 is a dream find! On episode 66 of Roadkill, David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan head to Colorado Auto & Parts in Englewood, Colorado, and visit the Corns family—builders of the crazy radial-Cessna-powered 1939 Plymouth truck you’ve seen all over the internet. Colorado Auto is a giant you-pull-it yard with heritage back to 1959—with a good stash of vintage cars that have been there for decades. One of them was a 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 that had been melting into the ground since 1980. But 37 years of neglect are not daunting to Roadkill, so the guys figure out how to get it running and driving. First, they’ve got to deal with 37 years of raccoon poop, which is just part of bringing the Disgustang into the Roadkill fleet of project cars.

To kick off the YouTube video series, hosts Kevin Tetz and John McGann immerse themselves in the task of swapping a Gen 3 Hemi into a 1972 Dodge Challenger. And this isn't just any old Hemi—we're dropping a 707-horsepower Hellcat into the car and putting one of Tremec's brand-new TKX five-speed transmissions behind it. The Challenger is also getting a brand new coilover suspension and a brake upgrade. The goal is to make it run and drive like a new Hellcat-powered Challenger, but with the classy good looks of the original E-Body.
