Bernice violates protocol; Eddie confronts a larger-than-life couple.

After a constant wait for parts for the ’55 Pink Caddy, the monkeys make a mad dash to get the car done on time for the Hard Rock Casino or Richard will lose $10,000 a day for every day it’s delayed. Meanwhile, Richard ventures into new territory as his Gas Monkey Dragster hits the Texas Motorplex for the NHRA qualifying runs. Does his team have what it takes to qualify for the race?

When Aaron presents the idea of upgrading Richard’s new ’71 Dodge Scat Pack Challenger R/T that he bought at auction by transplanting the drivetrain from a brand new 2015 Dodge Challenger Scat Pack, Richard agrees to let Aaron tear apart two nearly perfect cars to make it happen, only to realize that this may be the most difficult build the garage has ever faced.

It’s make or break time for Aaron’s crazy Scat Pack Challenger transplant scheme, as Richard’s potential buyer will only be in town for one day, and if the build isn’t finished by then, Richard could potentially be saddled with two worthless cars.

Christmas has come early for military artefacts dealer Bruce Crompton when he gets his hands on an incredibly rare German Panther tank.  In its original undercoat this one is more pink than camouflage. There are just two working models in the world and fully restored his could be worth as much as five million pounds.  But that's easier said than done - to do it up Bruce and his team must scour Europe to track down authentic parts, whilst mechanics, the twins, call in a WWII tank expert to do some detective work to uncover the secrets of the Panthers past; which ends with an explosive revelation about how the tank met its sticky end in the war.
