Runs Good

Dan, Shea, and Aaron buy a half-finished Fox-body Mustang drag race project car that was halfway through a turbo charged LS heart transplant. With their eyes set on 700+hp, they attempt to finish it within five days for a local event.

Dan, Shea, and Aaron buy a completely stripped out Mini Cooper off of Facebook Marketplace. The goal is to completely transform it into a fully fledged spec car in only four days. Since the boys don’t like to lose races, they scheme to add an illegal nitrous bottle and disguise it as a fire extinguisher.

A drive an hour north of Albuquerque leads Dan, Shea, and Aaron to investigate an intriguing listing about a $1500 Jeep Comanche. It’s already been lifted and allegedly “Runs Good” but they’re going to have to trust the previous owner because the car doesn’t have a gas tank and can’t be turned over.

The boys buy yet another non-running car, sight unseen. This project is a Subaru Legacy that was listed for $1500, but the original owner couldn’t sort out why it wouldn’t turn over after some at-home maintenance. With slight trepidation, the guys press onward and attempt to resuscitate this stalled project and add a bunch of other overlanding goodies to this Legacy.

This time around Dan, Shea, and Aaron take a short train ride out to Santa Fe to take a look at a Chevy Silverado 2500 that has had an LS transplant. The previous owner originally wanted to turn it into a Sunday cruiser but couldn’t sort out why the car would randomly shift into neutral. Undeterred, the guys decide to press forward and complete what he started.

Never meet your hero’s kids, especially when that hero is a thirty year old Import. In the season finale of Runs Good, Dan, Shea, and Aaron fly out to Grand Junction Colorado to investigate a listing about a Nissan Skyline Gts-t drift project. In only three days the guys completely transform this stalled project into a legendary drift missile.
