In this episode of HOT ROD Garage, we revisit our budget-friendly Turbo Buick T-type, affectionately dubbed the "Grand Trashional," as it seeks redemption following a disappointing dyno run last time. With the right Gearstar transmission and torque converter in place, we’re confident it will finally perform as expected. After that, the G-Body undergoes a full suspension overhaul to enhance its G-force capabilities. Hosts Tony Angelo and Jimmy Caldwell then face off in a driving challenge to determine who will have the honor of revealing the next HRG project.
