In this thrilling episode of HOT ROD Garage, hosts Tony Angelo and Lucky Costa head to a Southern California auto auction, armed with cash and a desire to uncover a hidden gem in the muscle car world. After some spirited bidding, the duo ends up with a surprising 1991 Mercedes-Benz SL500, a departure from their usual projects! Watch as they transform the SL500 into a powerhouse by swapping out the worn German V-8 for a turbocharged 575hp Toyota 2JZ-GTE six-cylinder. With the car ready to roar, they set out to challenge some classic '80s exotics and showcase the revamped Benz's capabilities!
