Resurrected Rides (2024) s01e08 Episode Script
Miata
1
Have you ever had
a certain car on your mind?
The more you think about it,
the more you start noticing it everywhere?
Ever since the show started,
all I see are junk cars.
Jesus Christ! Oh my God.
It's a nonstop barrage of fixer-uppers,
jalopies, and Altimas,
all begging for a resurrection.
And there's one ride in particular
that just keeps rearing its ugly-ass head.
Um, come on, down! Now!
It belongs to
a person I actually know.
-You could even say we're coworkers.
-Get in here!
And, no, not one of my co-workers
or soon to be ex-co-workers
from the garage.
It was too much.
Since this is
our last car of the season
before we run out of time,
money, and Netflix's patience
No, I'm talking about
another kind of co-worker.
Ruhi.
A cocktail waitress
at the comedy club in Hollywood
where your boy does stand up.
And take it from her friend, Nicole.
Hi, I'm here because of my friend Ruhi
and her piece of
Mazda Miata convertible.
It's beat-up.
It's gross, and it's like
a real symphony of smells in there.
She keeps her lizard in it.
Daphne's chillin'.
Just getting all the UV rays.
Daphne loves the car.
Honestly, this car
is more her car than my car.
I have her cage, worms.
I always pack her a salad.
She's a good, spoiled girl.
What is all of this?
It's for the holidays.
I just can't believe how bad this car is.
Like, every time I get in, it gets worse.
The jokes
are definitely funny, but
it definitely makes me feel
a little insecure about my car.
It's just kind of hard for me
to save for things for my car
when there's so many other things
that I have to take care of.
Okay, as I mentioned,
I kind of know Ruhi. All right, man?
We're not great friends.
You know what I mean?
We haven't had sleepovers
or nothing like that,
but we are acquaintances, okay?
Now, she works at the comedy club
that I also perform at a lot. All right?
It's called The Comedy Store.
I've seen her and her lizard around.
She's struggling. She works hard.
And the car is trash.
She can't have lizards with a trash car.
Now, usually, I'd bust in
The Comedy Store and be like,
"Yo! What's up,
club that I work at all the time?"
Hello, Lacey.
But that'd be rude as hell to the comics.
Also, I work there, and I wanna work there
after this show is over.
So I'm just going to call her ass up.
Lacey, I swear to God.
We are making a TV show.
I'm trying to work.
I love Lacey.
You go ahead and work, girl.
FaceTime.
Hey, Ruhi! What's going on?
Oh my God! Chris?
Yes, it is God and Chris Redd.
And I'm just calling to say what's up
and see how my girl Ruhi's doing.
Am I on the show?
Say what?
There's a cameraman behind you.
This This is where you chose to stand?
Pretty sure I'm on the show.
Oh damn it, man.
I can't never have no fun in here.
Oh my gosh, thank you.
Yeah, I'm gonna text you the address.
Get over here as soon as you can,
and we'll give you the car of your dreams.
Sounds good. I'm so excited.
Thanks so much, Chris. You're the best.
You're the best!
I'm gonna text you
the address of the garage.
-Okay, bye.
-Bye.
Garage team, are we ready?
For?
"For"?
What the hell?
- Hey, Ruhi!
- Hey!
My girl! You're a sight for sore eyes.
And this thing is an eyesore. For sure.
-Where's the lizard? Let me see.
-She's right in there.
Hey, little lizard.
I ain't gonna touch you
'cause you terrify me.
Come on. You can hold her.
Oh, hey, you.
She likes you.
I feel like a villain.
I feel like
I'm about to poison the water supply.
This is the part I walk around your car
and roast it a little bit.
But, you know,
the garage team's never had a chance
to be here for this part of it,
so I'mma go ahead and bring them out here.
- Oh no.
- Garage team!
Assemble!
Now I got the lizard off me,
my team gets to see me do what I do,
where I excel at.
At making fun of things.
All right, this thing look like
she drove out the swamp with it.
I don't know why people
with cars don't wash it.
- I guess it's not worth it.
- Roasted.
It's just gonna bring out the flaws.
- Is this supposed to be funny?
- She's right here, bro.
Yep. We got some flaws here.
You got your front bumper
just hanging off. Why?
A speed bump.
- All right, and this what how what?
- That's not even a good joke.
It's different when there are people here.
Why do this at the end of the season?
Uh, this will not be
the best roast session I've done.
All right. Is this taped up?
- Custom tape.
- What happened?
-This guy hit me.
-Uh-huh.
-But he was really cute.
-Right.
So I didn't want to call insurance on him.
Okay.
So you a sucker.
Yeah.
What happened here?
- I was reversing.
- Okay, so what?
- I just bumped into something.
- Where is the license plate?
I had to park somewhere
and didn't wanna get a ticket,
so I just took it off.
Bruh.
You driving around here
like you about to commit crimes.
Who attacked your seats?
- It's from her.
- She got a little terrarium?
So I can take her
to restaurants and stuff.
-You take that lizard to restaurants?
-And bars.
- Hey!
- Whoa!
Oh, nice!
Now people can see
just how the inside is.
You got a tiny little hat.
Now this is my favorite thing.
- That's you right there.
- Whoa, okay! Hi!
She has a beach chair for the lizard.
And there's a skateboard for the lizard.
This lizard likes activities.
What are y'all thinking, man?
You've seen this.
Y'all ruminated a little bit.
Y'all have heard me use ruminate
in the right context for the first time.
What would you change?
Yeah, I'm thinking,
for sure, lower this thing.
You lower every goddamn car there is!
- No!
- Raise it up!
- I mean
- Don't say body kit, either.
Full body kit but lower.
You don't have
a position anymore.
Don't do this again.
Can't lower it.
Can't do a body kit. Damn.
Let's put a lift kit on it.
I mean, I'm not opposed
to lifting this thing.
- Oh yeah!
- I'm just kidding.
Oh, you kidding? Damn.
You was coming I was just
Nelson, I see you making that face, man.
What you thinking?
Some stuff.
Hell yeah.
That's my boy, Nelson.
Thinking 'bout some stuff.
Look, guys,
we gotta really go lizard on this one.
Shayna, I can tell by the way you making
no facial expression whatsoever
that you get it, you know what I'm saying?
This one would be really cool
with a chameleon paint job,
which means that it changes colors
based on whatever light that you look at,
to go along with the theme of lizard.
That's That's sick.
Definitely some new wheels
'cause these are pretty busted.
I think we can put some leather skin
on the seats, but fake.
- Faux.
- Faux lizard.
And how about we put some heated seats
to keep the reptile nice and warm?
-That's fire.
-We could build a terranium.
- A terrarium?
- Yeah.
Put some type of heat rock in there.
Some sand.
It's like a club for the bearded dragon.
Maybe a little piña colada
for her tiny Miata.
I think that y'all got a great game plan.
This is it!
The last time before Netflix
stops sending us checks.
We got one week, y'all.
All I know is y'all don't got enough time,
but you're gonna make it happen.
If you need me, email me.
Get your number,
so we can finally call for help?
Absolutely. It's 555
- Okay, go back
- Trying to help.
- Go back to your trunk thing.
- Trying to be friendly.
Look at this thing.
Look at the foam here.
You can see the metal.
Whatcha thinking?
-Look at that thing.
-Nice.
- It's roasted. Sun-baked.
- Roasted.
With leather,
it's just like a hide.
You're in the sun all the time,
it's gonna shrink.
It's bad.
We're gonna have to rip this thing off
and rebuild the seats from the foam up.
Watch your hand. Watch your finger.
We're doing something really different
for this Miata.
The color shift for
the extreme shift paint that we went with,
there's this really cool
green to purple shift.
So based off the angle
or the light that you're seeing it in,
it's going to shift colors.
So I hope it turns out
the way that we envision it.
Chameleon paint
is not the easiest to spray.
So we're doing a spray-out panel
to make sure that we get this right.
So we're gonna come in
and spray a black base coat.
And then we're gonna spray
our chameleon paint as, like, a midcoat.
The key part
to applying the chameleon paint is
it all has to be uniform
and sprayed in the same direction
so that the entire car is the same color
and shifts all at the same time.
I mean, it's flopping.
It's actually pretty cool,
I'm not gonna lie.
Now I need them to get the body in shape.
The way you're describing it,
the terranium is in here.
- Terrarium?
- A terronium?
A terrar A terrarium.
Terrallum. Terranium.
You'll get me to start saying terranium,
and I'll be so mad
because you'll make me dumber.
Hey, Lace,
you wanna help us build a lizard box?
Uh, let me do my engine things first.
We should build
a terranium up there too.
Building a crazy turbo kit there, huh?
Uh, no, just gonna do airflow upgrade,
spark plugs, exhaust.
So I dunno. I'm gonna see
what we got on the ol' interwebs.
Is it eBay time?
It is eBay time, Don.
Hey, can you guys see if they have
a Miata terrarium trunk?
All right, Miata lizard trunk.
No. No exact matches found.
I mean, it was worth a try.
We do, however
We got all kinds of options here.
- All right, we got air intake.
- Whoo.
- Buy it now.
- Mm-hmm.
- Sign me up.
- Check out bumpers.
That looks like the one. Buy it now.
Got any lizard food there?
- We should get some lizard food.
- Yep! There you go.
I mean, I don't know
if this is the right lizard food,
but I do know
that the parts are gonna fit.
Yeah,
it's an amazing world we live in,
and yet Don still can't say
Terranium, I got it.
Yo, yo, garage team. What's up?
What's up?
Yeah. Y'all seem pretty, uh,
excited and full of energy.
Whoo!
You're here kinda early.
I am. I can tell.
Uh, y'all have done so much
with this car so far.
Uh
Tell me what's going on here, playboy?
Currently just trying
to think about
making a clear panel out of,
like, a polyurethane plastic.
So when we put the terrarium in the trunk,
it'll have some ability to collect light.
-Like a sunroof, essentially.
-Yeah.
These cars are very race car-inspired.
Let's do a wing that's not purposeful.
Then we can put
a solar panel that'll charge
the little gizmo box for the lizard.
See? Now Donnie's whiz-banging
like he always does.
A'ight, so I got an idea, and it's genius.
So say Ruhi and Daphne wanna have
a girls' night out on the town, right?
And Ruhi's getting ready.
What if Daphne had a place
where she can go through her clothes,
you know what I mean?
Figure out what she gon' wear.
Her little lizard tutu. You know?
Going down the street
and catch some lizard ass or something.
You know what I'm saying?
Like a little, like, rotating closet
of all the lizard's clothes.
Huh? Now what y'all think about that?
I think it's great.
It's a real neat-o idea
you got there, Chris.
Hell yeah. It's a whizbang
if I've ever heard one, my boy.
Where do you want the wardrobe?
We have so much space to work with
in this car. It's ridiculous.
I mean, the wardrobe can go in the middle.
You know? This could come down here,
and there's a little bitty wardrobe
in there, you know what I mean?
I I I would never do this, but
Ruhi would love it.
That's up Ruhi's alley.
I mean, we're building this car for her,
and I don't want our last car
of the season to flop.
Well, then, I'm up out of here.
If you need my help, don't ask.
eBay stuff, Nelson.
Do you have to slam the door every time?
Lacey, I got you a present.
Oh! Our parts came in.
Yeah, this looks like it'll be perfect.
Performance and beauty all in one.
I'm gonna leave this over here for you
and let you cook at it.
You got your lunch shipped here.
- I wanna try.
- Don't eat this.
-It's got crickets.
-It's protein.
I mean, it is protein.
You could eat crickets. Don't eat it.
That's a real cricket.
Ooh!
Oh, look at that!
Oh my gosh.
So you can see our stock intake here.
It's completely enclosed in this box
because, from the factory, they kind of
build these things for comfort and quiet,
but what comes along with that
is a lot of restriction for the airflow.
So we're getting rid of this,
and we're gonna use this cold air intake.
It's just gonna breathe a lot better,
and it should add
around 10 or 15 horsepower.
And it's gonna sound cool too.
Internal combustion engines
need oxygen to burn fuel.
Cold air intakes work by opening up
the airway feeding the engine.
More air means more fuel burns
with each engine stroke,
resulting in greater power,
better gas mileage, and a louder engine.
Everything is packed so tight in here.
But using this
is actually gonna open it up quite a bit.
The whole install
should take less than an hour,
which is great
because we don't have a lot of time.
The more you look at it,
the more it's gonna not be edible.
Oh my God.
Oh, why did I do that?
I gotta brush my teeth.
Let's fire it up.
Ooh!
Little rev.
Okay.
Ah, the sound of fuel efficiency.
Ruhi's Miata needs some serious help
in the aesthetics department.
So I'm gonna give it a design element
inspired by its racing heritage,
a custom spoiler.
I'm actually gonna incorporate
some solar panels in the top.
That's gonna trickle cell charge
our little battery we have for this giz
- What do they call it, the terranium?
- Terrarium!
It doesn't matter what it's called.
Nelson's got that thing covered.
What I need to do is build out the base
for my solar panel spoiler.
I'm working bottom to top
starting with the baseplates
that I have to cut perfectly
to sit flush with the curved trunk lid.
Next, our lattice brackets
to lift up the spoiler.
Yo! What the heck is that?
- This is what you would call a terranium.
- There we go.
- It's a terrarium. This is for the lizard.
- Oh.
All right, so check this out.
We got custom tabs, custom brackets.
I'm now gonna go build my top shelf here,
which will be top of the airfoil.
Put some complex bends in it.
Weld her all up.
Then from there, I'm gonna stack
these solar panels here
all the way through, and we'll have
a solar-paneled airfoil design.
And I'm gonna cut this up
as best as I can.
I'll tape it for you so you can cut it.
Well, it's gotta kind
of match this spot-on
because I want this lizard
to experience natural sunlight
'cause that's the point.
Well, whatever your plan is, I'm for it.
- I know.
- I'll take a template.
I'll cut it, and that way,
you can trace it right on this.
Figure out what you wanna do,
-adjust it, and cut it.
-Yeah.
-I wanna get back to it.
-Yeah, please.
-I've had the giggle fits with you enough.
-Yeah, I know. I'm so tired.
Oh yeah. I gotta get coffee.
But there's no time to rest.
I have to build the wing of the spoiler,
so that Nelson can get to work
on making the terrarium in the trunk.
Yeah, I said terrarium.
As the wing comes up and forms,
there's a top part
which I'll build out of sheet metal.
I wanted carbon fiber,
but we're running out of time,
so I'll use the materials
that we have here.
Put some complex bends in it.
Weld her all up.
And put it all together so I can get
a good idea of how this thing will look.
It's crazy.
I thought the ovals would look good
but doesn't at all.
See, I like really sleek stuff.
I'd build off the trunk straight back.
That's kind of cool.
This being raised up now is kind of
Nelson!
Lizard wardrobe.
Are you as excited as me?
Tiny little hat.
This is my favorite thing right here.
- That's you right there.
- Okay! Hi!
With some fits like this,
how could you not?
Some fits like that.
Some fits like this, shoot.
-This is the back of the seat, right?
-Mm-hmm.
So, instead of her just,
like, opening, doing this.
Hitting a button?
We got this window crank
and do pretty much this now,
where we open and close like that.
So that's where Nelson's gonna come in.
I'm gonna ask for his help
to make this automated somehow.
Nothing can never just be easy.
This piece, it can fold out and be
like a little closet to hang the clothes.
- That's pretty cute. I'm not gonna lie.
- You know?
I think you need to custom make her
an outfit that matches the car too.
-You'll help me?
-Yeah, I'm in.
Let's do it.
While Lacey's getting ready
to retrofit the console door,
I convinced Nelson to lend a hand
with the more technical aspect
of building a motorized lizard wardrobe.
I just ran with your idea.
- I just put a little servo actuator here.
- That's cool.
You just gotta hook it up to 14 volts
in the car, and we're running.
- Okay. Yeah.
- Yeah.
Let's put this thing together.
Before we can close the door
on this closet,
I'm attaching the console
to the rear panel.
Leave it to Big Lace to top it off
with a rod and hanger system
with enough space
for Daphne's favorite fits.
Feel like I just ran a marathon.
I'm so tired today. What is this?
I don't like it, but when I drew it
on paper, it looked dope.
Hmm. Very banana-y.
Yeah. Just gotta figure out
what is not working.
If this was bigger
If this was, like, big,
then it would make sense.
Oh yeah. That is the problem with this.
That's why it looks weird. It's too small.
It looks very Polly Pocket. Yeah.
-What's Polly Pocket?
-A little, pocket-sized, like, Barbie.
My sister had them. Don't ask me.
Huh.
- You're an only child. Oh my God.
- Yeah, when am I gonna play
That explains everything.
Porky Piglet aside,
Nelson makes a great point.
So I'm gonna design a beefier wing
that will fit the Miata better
and give me more real estate
for some extra solar sails.
Hey, yeah.
-That's way Yeah!
-That's so much better!
I didn't want to be mean,
but, like, the first one sucked.
Oh?
- Shayna.
- What?
When did you say
you had to paint this again?
- Tomorrow.
- Tomorrow?
Uh, yeah.
I would like to prime it later today.
Today? That's gonna be
a little bit of an issue.
We got these new set of wheels.
They're a lot more aggressive
than the factory ones were,
so I flared it out,
so now it clears our wheel.
And there was a bunch
of Bondo on this thing.
I don't know if you've seen, but it's
Your words make me not want to see it.
'Cause this is gonna require
a lot more work than I expected.
You can see that edge.
How much Bondo is on this thing?
Oh my God.
There's no way we can put more paint
on this without it cracking
because there's previous body work here,
and when you pile up a lot of material
on the panel like that,
the paint will actually crack
or just won't stick
or there's a plethora of problems
that you could have when that happens.
So, now, because we discovered this,
we'll be stripping it all down,
and the tougher part about this
is that this bodywork has to be
absolutely 100% completely straight
because it's a chameleon paint job,
or else the chameleon color
is gonna flip on every little wave.
So it's gonna make any imperfection
that we have a lot more noticeable,
and we don't want that.
I advise that we fully strip this thing
down to bare metal
-Eh
-and re-body work it.
It looks like we're in for
a pretty long night.
What happened?
- Just throwing it away.
- Why?
Just kidding. Um, I need your help.
I can cut this,
but can I cut it as good as you?
- No. Yeah. I'm good.
- Wait a minute.
-Giving you a bow.
-Can I hear that again?
Nope.
I still have to do the terrarium skylight.
So I need to cut this outer skin
and leave this inner skeleton
as best you can.
This is really cool.
We can do this as a team.
When I cut this, you don't wanna use
an angle grinder 'cause it builds heat.
If we put any kind of heat in this,
with a couple cuts, it'll warp.
That's the last thing we want here.
We're gonna give you an air hose.
Keep this plate cool.
We have to go really, really slow.
If there's one thing
I can always count on from Don,
it's finding new ways
of making me feel uncomfortable.
Okay. Hold on. Wait.
Give me good instructions.
So just like?
Just start blowing on it.
You just gotta keep it cool. Ready?
But Don brings up a great point.
We can't have our trunk lid warping
in the middle of cutting it.
Otherwise, we're on the hook
for hours of bodywork to fix it,
and that's time we do not have.
So, to combat warping,
Don suggested the use
of convection cooling with the air hose.
Spray it down, baby.
Much of the heat generated
from cutting the panel
will be transferred
to the compressed air flowing over it,
keeping it cool and sturdy.
All right, buddy.
Okey-dokey.
Bonk. Thank you.
-You know what we're missing, baby? A hug.
-What?
Oh, no, actually the job is done.
Oh God.
Even after
a long night of bodywork,
the Miata still isn't ready for paint.
So, of course, I'm dragging us all back
to the garage with me for an early start.
Sacrificing sleep for bodywork
on a beat-up Miata ain't exactly great,
but it needs to be perfect in order
for this chameleon paint job to look dope.
Initially, there was gaps
all throughout this headlight.
You could literally
stick your hand in there.
We already put some fiberglass down.
Went over that with some Mar-glass,
which is a combination of Bondo
and stranded fiberglass.
Now, we're just finishing up
a little bit of Bondo work
to make these edges nice and smooth.
These gaps have improved dramatically.
A bit more work, we'll get some primer on,
and this should be ready for paint.
With the holes cut out
of the Miata's trunk lid,
I can create a pattern
cut out the polycarbonate skylights,
and seal it off to protect
Ruhi's precious cargo from the elements.
Smart Tint's actually really cool stuff
because when you apply power to it,
this panel goes clear,
so that's something you can see
with the sample they sent.
So if you look at this,
you can't see my face, and now you can.
So that way, Daphne,
when she wants to be a sunbathing lizard,
she has the option.
When she wants privacy,
so she can change
into some of her little tutus,
changing mode, sunbathing, changing mode.
That's the idea.
I'm over here
trying to get this 360 view to work.
What are you doing?
Ever heard of these things?
360s, bird's-eye view cameras?
- No, what is it?
- A lot of new cars come with it.
Got four cameras here.
One on each mirror,
one on the front bumper,
one on the rear bumper.
It then projects those images
onto this screen that'll be on the dash,
and it's gonna give you
a bird's-eye view. It's pretty cool.
Look at you being
all cute and sophisticated.
You don't want her to break those
cool exhaust tips you're building, right?
Yeah. Ruhi getting crazy.
We're a bit against the clock
because I had to start drilling these
into the body before we paint.
You definitely don't wanna
double-side stick them on there.
You wanna make sure
that these look like they came part
If you ever double-side stick anything,
I'll give you a kick in your butt.
If you make it light enough,
you can use double-sided tape.
Don't listen to him.
Double-sided tape is dumb.
Not everything needs to be bolted
and welded with quarter-inch steel.
-If we make stuff
-Huh?
Nothing, Don.
Let's get this car done. How 'bout that?
Don can chill 'cause I'm not gonna use
double-sided tape for this.
I'm gonna use some rubber fittings
that came with the kit.
It's gonna fit nice and secure.
No worries.
The camera works.
Oh, that's not what I wanted to see.
It's not beeping.
I would have got run over.
- Don't you have a full interior to do?
- Yeah.
And you know what?
Throw in a shifter.
Aw, dude.
I shouldn't have walked over here.
Throw in the shifter down there.
Thank you, sir. I might need you
to come back and help me calibrate this.
No, I'm not going to come back anymore.
You'll just give me more work.
Shake it ♪
Tomorrow is our last day
in the garage,
and Ruhi will be stopping by
to see her Miata.
Unfortunately, it's nowhere near ready.
After shedding the existing leather,
I'm adding a custom crocodile upholstery.
But, Daphne,
you don't have to worry about nothing.
It's all synthetic.
Lacey!
Are these the Miata seats?
Don't judge me.
Don, what do you think?
Dude, what is that?
That doesn't even make sense.
Hey, I went off the rails.
-Hopefully everyone else loves it.
-We'll find out.
Nelson and Oscar are wrapping up
the bodywork on the skylight trunk lid,
which has to be perfect for the chameleon
paint job to shine from all angles.
Lacey's on wheel duty
Such a graceful process.
mounting these new tires
on Ruhi's new wheels.
Now we're gonna let the machine
do some of the work.
This is gonna help Daphne
be relaxed on the road,
to ensure that her ride is silky smooth.
On the other side of the garage,
Don is wiring up the spoiler
with solar panels to power up
the terrarium UV lights.
Now we got the solar panel thing all set,
a couple tack welds, and this is finished.
And my boy Nelson
is finishing up the trunk
by installing Daphne's
new home away from home
and providing power to the Smart Tint
by wiring up
the Miata's electrical system.
Well, that looks cool.
Me and Lacey are installing
the rear interior panel
to complete Daphne's new wardrobe.
- Hit it!
- Ooh! That's right.
Let's get this ready for paint.
As we clock out
for some much-needed sleep,
Shayna's clocking in to lay down
her most ambitious paint job yet,
the color-shifting chameleon paint.
And it wouldn't be
our final resurrected ride
without a special touch
from my girl Shayna,
finishing her paint job
with a gold leaf surprise
that we hope Ruhi will love.
Ruhi, this is a very expensive paint job.
Please be careful with it.
Please.
Ruhi, my favorite comedy cocktail server.
-Hi!
-How you doing, baby?
-So good.
-And Daphne.
You got a little jean dress on, girl.
Go ahead.
Fasho.
We got a dope-ass whip
that is ready for you.
-How you feeling?
-I'm a little nervous.
- Yeah.
- Gonna be a wild one.
It's gonna be fine.
You ready to see this thing?
-I'm ready. Let's go.
-All right, let's get it.
Daphne, prepare your lizard ass
for our final ride of the season.
Hit it!
Ooh!
Oh my God. Your family, Daphne.
Your Mohawk brothers.
A-weema-weh, a-weema-weh ♪
Know what I'm talking about?
Close your eyes.
-Okay.
-Daphne, close your damn eyes.
I'll cover hers too.
And here's your whip!
Oh my God!
- Oh my God, this is amazing!
- You're supposed to stay there.
Bring yo' ass back over here.
- That paint is crazy.
- This is insane.
-That color is so amazing.
-You gotta stay over here.
Look at the wheels!
I know.
They don't look like anymore.
I cannot believe this.
This is the coolest car ever.
Let's talk about this outside.
Shayna, I know you were mad-excited
about this paint job.
I was really excited about this one.
We stuck with the lizard theme,
and we gave you a chameleon paint job.
And we also added little lizard footprints
in some variegated gold leaf
by each of the door handles
because I thought
it was a cute little touch.
It's amazing.
Yo, Oscar. Talk to me, bro.
It was pretty beat up
when we got it.
We installed a brand-new body kit,
full bumper conversion,
and replaced your old, busted headlights
as well as your taillights.
I hit a lot of things before. So
Well, we wanted
to help you out with that,
so we went ahead
and installed a 360 camera.
That way, when you're reversing,
you can see what you're gonna hit.
- Oh my God. That's amazing.
- Jesus.
It's like God is helping you
get out of parking spots. It'll be sick.
From head to toe,
we revamped the whole interior
with faux scratch-resistant
crocodile skin.
This is so cool.
- New seat heaters.
- It's the happiest I've seen her.
-Oh yeah.
-Look at that. She loves that.
Yo, she's like, "My brothers and sisters"
No, I'm playing.
How you feeling about
all the lizard stuff?
This is the coolest car
I've ever seen in my life.
I'm glad you like
all the lizard stuff
- 'cause there's actually a lot more.
- Oh jeez.
-Yeah! I knew there was more.
-Oh my goodness.
There's more.
Oh my gosh!
Inside the trunk is
a climate-controlled terrarium.
Look at your new home.
This is a skylight so she can
enjoy the sun and get natural UV light.
Or with the push of a button
- Ooh!
- it goes clear.
That is amazing.
-You see something very special here?
-Spoiler.
I made you a custom spoiler
for your little race car.
I built everything by hand,
but that's not the cool part.
The solar panels
actually power the battery
for the UV light for your tarbonium.
Oh my goodness.
- Terrarium. Terrarium.
- Terrarium.
Stop putting "bone" in words.
I got one thing that I requested,
and they made it happen.
And it is the stupidest thing
I've ever requested.
I love it. I'm excited about this.
Chris had this bright idea.
As you remember,
you had a compartment here.
Hell yeah.
I love how slow it moves.
Oh my gosh, it's a little closet.
That's really her skirt.
Also, I had the idea that maybe Daphne
needed a little outfit to match the car.
So I whipped that up.
Denim girls ♪
This is amazing.
She can have a lizard fashion show,
you know what I'm saying?
- Look at that.
- Oh!
Oh my God.
Styling little girl. Styling on 'em.
Hold the skirt.
Ruhi,
now that you've seen everything,
would you say that your ride
has been, uh, resurrected?
- My car has been resurrected. Definitely.
- Hell yeah!
We did it, y'all!
Why y'all standing in line like that?
Hell yeah.
Okay.
I am so shocked.
I can't even believe
how much went into my car.
I don't recognize it at all.
Look how happy she is.
The garage team,
they really put thought into everything,
and I can't thank them enough.
What's your favorite thing?
I love it all, honestly,
but the paint job is insane.
Yeah!
It's about damn time
somebody chose the damn paint job.
I actually feel like
I have a functional car
that I'm not scared to drive around
and be embarrassed to see in, so
I can't wait to show everyone
how cool my car is.
Yes.
Now when you pull up to the Store,
we still gonna make fun of your ass, but
damn, we gonna wanna jump
in this ride with you.
We are better, better together ♪
We changed a lot of rides,
and we changed a lot of lives
with this season.
-Great job, man.
-Great job, buddy.
-Really?
-Come on. Bring it in.
-Yeah? You wanna do it?
-Give me a hug. Come on.
- Oh, a hug?
- Oh!
What?
A hug? Was that a warranted hug?
Wow!
That's crazy! Did y'all get that?
Nelson! Yes!
That's what we do here
at Resurrected Rides.
We make dreams come true.
We make two men hug.
Going from a beat-up van

Have you ever had
a certain car on your mind?
The more you think about it,
the more you start noticing it everywhere?
Ever since the show started,
all I see are junk cars.
Jesus Christ! Oh my God.
It's a nonstop barrage of fixer-uppers,
jalopies, and Altimas,
all begging for a resurrection.
And there's one ride in particular
that just keeps rearing its ugly-ass head.
Um, come on, down! Now!
It belongs to
a person I actually know.
-You could even say we're coworkers.
-Get in here!
And, no, not one of my co-workers
or soon to be ex-co-workers
from the garage.
It was too much.
Since this is
our last car of the season
before we run out of time,
money, and Netflix's patience
No, I'm talking about
another kind of co-worker.
Ruhi.
A cocktail waitress
at the comedy club in Hollywood
where your boy does stand up.
And take it from her friend, Nicole.
Hi, I'm here because of my friend Ruhi
and her piece of
Mazda Miata convertible.
It's beat-up.
It's gross, and it's like
a real symphony of smells in there.
She keeps her lizard in it.
Daphne's chillin'.
Just getting all the UV rays.
Daphne loves the car.
Honestly, this car
is more her car than my car.
I have her cage, worms.
I always pack her a salad.
She's a good, spoiled girl.
What is all of this?
It's for the holidays.
I just can't believe how bad this car is.
Like, every time I get in, it gets worse.
The jokes
are definitely funny, but
it definitely makes me feel
a little insecure about my car.
It's just kind of hard for me
to save for things for my car
when there's so many other things
that I have to take care of.
Okay, as I mentioned,
I kind of know Ruhi. All right, man?
We're not great friends.
You know what I mean?
We haven't had sleepovers
or nothing like that,
but we are acquaintances, okay?
Now, she works at the comedy club
that I also perform at a lot. All right?
It's called The Comedy Store.
I've seen her and her lizard around.
She's struggling. She works hard.
And the car is trash.
She can't have lizards with a trash car.
Now, usually, I'd bust in
The Comedy Store and be like,
"Yo! What's up,
club that I work at all the time?"
Hello, Lacey.
But that'd be rude as hell to the comics.
Also, I work there, and I wanna work there
after this show is over.
So I'm just going to call her ass up.
Lacey, I swear to God.
We are making a TV show.
I'm trying to work.
I love Lacey.
You go ahead and work, girl.
FaceTime.
Hey, Ruhi! What's going on?
Oh my God! Chris?
Yes, it is God and Chris Redd.
And I'm just calling to say what's up
and see how my girl Ruhi's doing.
Am I on the show?
Say what?
There's a cameraman behind you.
This This is where you chose to stand?
Pretty sure I'm on the show.
Oh damn it, man.
I can't never have no fun in here.
Oh my gosh, thank you.
Yeah, I'm gonna text you the address.
Get over here as soon as you can,
and we'll give you the car of your dreams.
Sounds good. I'm so excited.
Thanks so much, Chris. You're the best.
You're the best!
I'm gonna text you
the address of the garage.
-Okay, bye.
-Bye.
Garage team, are we ready?
For?
"For"?
What the hell?
- Hey, Ruhi!
- Hey!
My girl! You're a sight for sore eyes.
And this thing is an eyesore. For sure.
-Where's the lizard? Let me see.
-She's right in there.
Hey, little lizard.
I ain't gonna touch you
'cause you terrify me.
Come on. You can hold her.
Oh, hey, you.
She likes you.
I feel like a villain.
I feel like
I'm about to poison the water supply.
This is the part I walk around your car
and roast it a little bit.
But, you know,
the garage team's never had a chance
to be here for this part of it,
so I'mma go ahead and bring them out here.
- Oh no.
- Garage team!
Assemble!
Now I got the lizard off me,
my team gets to see me do what I do,
where I excel at.
At making fun of things.
All right, this thing look like
she drove out the swamp with it.
I don't know why people
with cars don't wash it.
- I guess it's not worth it.
- Roasted.
It's just gonna bring out the flaws.
- Is this supposed to be funny?
- She's right here, bro.
Yep. We got some flaws here.
You got your front bumper
just hanging off. Why?
A speed bump.
- All right, and this what how what?
- That's not even a good joke.
It's different when there are people here.
Why do this at the end of the season?
Uh, this will not be
the best roast session I've done.
All right. Is this taped up?
- Custom tape.
- What happened?
-This guy hit me.
-Uh-huh.
-But he was really cute.
-Right.
So I didn't want to call insurance on him.
Okay.
So you a sucker.
Yeah.
What happened here?
- I was reversing.
- Okay, so what?
- I just bumped into something.
- Where is the license plate?
I had to park somewhere
and didn't wanna get a ticket,
so I just took it off.
Bruh.
You driving around here
like you about to commit crimes.
Who attacked your seats?
- It's from her.
- She got a little terrarium?
So I can take her
to restaurants and stuff.
-You take that lizard to restaurants?
-And bars.
- Hey!
- Whoa!
Oh, nice!
Now people can see
just how the inside is.
You got a tiny little hat.
Now this is my favorite thing.
- That's you right there.
- Whoa, okay! Hi!
She has a beach chair for the lizard.
And there's a skateboard for the lizard.
This lizard likes activities.
What are y'all thinking, man?
You've seen this.
Y'all ruminated a little bit.
Y'all have heard me use ruminate
in the right context for the first time.
What would you change?
Yeah, I'm thinking,
for sure, lower this thing.
You lower every goddamn car there is!
- No!
- Raise it up!
- I mean
- Don't say body kit, either.
Full body kit but lower.
You don't have
a position anymore.
Don't do this again.
Can't lower it.
Can't do a body kit. Damn.
Let's put a lift kit on it.
I mean, I'm not opposed
to lifting this thing.
- Oh yeah!
- I'm just kidding.
Oh, you kidding? Damn.
You was coming I was just
Nelson, I see you making that face, man.
What you thinking?
Some stuff.
Hell yeah.
That's my boy, Nelson.
Thinking 'bout some stuff.
Look, guys,
we gotta really go lizard on this one.
Shayna, I can tell by the way you making
no facial expression whatsoever
that you get it, you know what I'm saying?
This one would be really cool
with a chameleon paint job,
which means that it changes colors
based on whatever light that you look at,
to go along with the theme of lizard.
That's That's sick.
Definitely some new wheels
'cause these are pretty busted.
I think we can put some leather skin
on the seats, but fake.
- Faux.
- Faux lizard.
And how about we put some heated seats
to keep the reptile nice and warm?
-That's fire.
-We could build a terranium.
- A terrarium?
- Yeah.
Put some type of heat rock in there.
Some sand.
It's like a club for the bearded dragon.
Maybe a little piña colada
for her tiny Miata.
I think that y'all got a great game plan.
This is it!
The last time before Netflix
stops sending us checks.
We got one week, y'all.
All I know is y'all don't got enough time,
but you're gonna make it happen.
If you need me, email me.
Get your number,
so we can finally call for help?
Absolutely. It's 555
- Okay, go back
- Trying to help.
- Go back to your trunk thing.
- Trying to be friendly.
Look at this thing.
Look at the foam here.
You can see the metal.
Whatcha thinking?
-Look at that thing.
-Nice.
- It's roasted. Sun-baked.
- Roasted.
With leather,
it's just like a hide.
You're in the sun all the time,
it's gonna shrink.
It's bad.
We're gonna have to rip this thing off
and rebuild the seats from the foam up.
Watch your hand. Watch your finger.
We're doing something really different
for this Miata.
The color shift for
the extreme shift paint that we went with,
there's this really cool
green to purple shift.
So based off the angle
or the light that you're seeing it in,
it's going to shift colors.
So I hope it turns out
the way that we envision it.
Chameleon paint
is not the easiest to spray.
So we're doing a spray-out panel
to make sure that we get this right.
So we're gonna come in
and spray a black base coat.
And then we're gonna spray
our chameleon paint as, like, a midcoat.
The key part
to applying the chameleon paint is
it all has to be uniform
and sprayed in the same direction
so that the entire car is the same color
and shifts all at the same time.
I mean, it's flopping.
It's actually pretty cool,
I'm not gonna lie.
Now I need them to get the body in shape.
The way you're describing it,
the terranium is in here.
- Terrarium?
- A terronium?
A terrar A terrarium.
Terrallum. Terranium.
You'll get me to start saying terranium,
and I'll be so mad
because you'll make me dumber.
Hey, Lace,
you wanna help us build a lizard box?
Uh, let me do my engine things first.
We should build
a terranium up there too.
Building a crazy turbo kit there, huh?
Uh, no, just gonna do airflow upgrade,
spark plugs, exhaust.
So I dunno. I'm gonna see
what we got on the ol' interwebs.
Is it eBay time?
It is eBay time, Don.
Hey, can you guys see if they have
a Miata terrarium trunk?
All right, Miata lizard trunk.
No. No exact matches found.
I mean, it was worth a try.
We do, however
We got all kinds of options here.
- All right, we got air intake.
- Whoo.
- Buy it now.
- Mm-hmm.
- Sign me up.
- Check out bumpers.
That looks like the one. Buy it now.
Got any lizard food there?
- We should get some lizard food.
- Yep! There you go.
I mean, I don't know
if this is the right lizard food,
but I do know
that the parts are gonna fit.
Yeah,
it's an amazing world we live in,
and yet Don still can't say
Terranium, I got it.
Yo, yo, garage team. What's up?
What's up?
Yeah. Y'all seem pretty, uh,
excited and full of energy.
Whoo!
You're here kinda early.
I am. I can tell.
Uh, y'all have done so much
with this car so far.
Uh
Tell me what's going on here, playboy?
Currently just trying
to think about
making a clear panel out of,
like, a polyurethane plastic.
So when we put the terrarium in the trunk,
it'll have some ability to collect light.
-Like a sunroof, essentially.
-Yeah.
These cars are very race car-inspired.
Let's do a wing that's not purposeful.
Then we can put
a solar panel that'll charge
the little gizmo box for the lizard.
See? Now Donnie's whiz-banging
like he always does.
A'ight, so I got an idea, and it's genius.
So say Ruhi and Daphne wanna have
a girls' night out on the town, right?
And Ruhi's getting ready.
What if Daphne had a place
where she can go through her clothes,
you know what I mean?
Figure out what she gon' wear.
Her little lizard tutu. You know?
Going down the street
and catch some lizard ass or something.
You know what I'm saying?
Like a little, like, rotating closet
of all the lizard's clothes.
Huh? Now what y'all think about that?
I think it's great.
It's a real neat-o idea
you got there, Chris.
Hell yeah. It's a whizbang
if I've ever heard one, my boy.
Where do you want the wardrobe?
We have so much space to work with
in this car. It's ridiculous.
I mean, the wardrobe can go in the middle.
You know? This could come down here,
and there's a little bitty wardrobe
in there, you know what I mean?
I I I would never do this, but
Ruhi would love it.
That's up Ruhi's alley.
I mean, we're building this car for her,
and I don't want our last car
of the season to flop.
Well, then, I'm up out of here.
If you need my help, don't ask.
eBay stuff, Nelson.
Do you have to slam the door every time?
Lacey, I got you a present.
Oh! Our parts came in.
Yeah, this looks like it'll be perfect.
Performance and beauty all in one.
I'm gonna leave this over here for you
and let you cook at it.
You got your lunch shipped here.
- I wanna try.
- Don't eat this.
-It's got crickets.
-It's protein.
I mean, it is protein.
You could eat crickets. Don't eat it.
That's a real cricket.
Ooh!
Oh, look at that!
Oh my gosh.
So you can see our stock intake here.
It's completely enclosed in this box
because, from the factory, they kind of
build these things for comfort and quiet,
but what comes along with that
is a lot of restriction for the airflow.
So we're getting rid of this,
and we're gonna use this cold air intake.
It's just gonna breathe a lot better,
and it should add
around 10 or 15 horsepower.
And it's gonna sound cool too.
Internal combustion engines
need oxygen to burn fuel.
Cold air intakes work by opening up
the airway feeding the engine.
More air means more fuel burns
with each engine stroke,
resulting in greater power,
better gas mileage, and a louder engine.
Everything is packed so tight in here.
But using this
is actually gonna open it up quite a bit.
The whole install
should take less than an hour,
which is great
because we don't have a lot of time.
The more you look at it,
the more it's gonna not be edible.
Oh my God.
Oh, why did I do that?
I gotta brush my teeth.
Let's fire it up.
Ooh!
Little rev.
Okay.
Ah, the sound of fuel efficiency.
Ruhi's Miata needs some serious help
in the aesthetics department.
So I'm gonna give it a design element
inspired by its racing heritage,
a custom spoiler.
I'm actually gonna incorporate
some solar panels in the top.
That's gonna trickle cell charge
our little battery we have for this giz
- What do they call it, the terranium?
- Terrarium!
It doesn't matter what it's called.
Nelson's got that thing covered.
What I need to do is build out the base
for my solar panel spoiler.
I'm working bottom to top
starting with the baseplates
that I have to cut perfectly
to sit flush with the curved trunk lid.
Next, our lattice brackets
to lift up the spoiler.
Yo! What the heck is that?
- This is what you would call a terranium.
- There we go.
- It's a terrarium. This is for the lizard.
- Oh.
All right, so check this out.
We got custom tabs, custom brackets.
I'm now gonna go build my top shelf here,
which will be top of the airfoil.
Put some complex bends in it.
Weld her all up.
Then from there, I'm gonna stack
these solar panels here
all the way through, and we'll have
a solar-paneled airfoil design.
And I'm gonna cut this up
as best as I can.
I'll tape it for you so you can cut it.
Well, it's gotta kind
of match this spot-on
because I want this lizard
to experience natural sunlight
'cause that's the point.
Well, whatever your plan is, I'm for it.
- I know.
- I'll take a template.
I'll cut it, and that way,
you can trace it right on this.
Figure out what you wanna do,
-adjust it, and cut it.
-Yeah.
-I wanna get back to it.
-Yeah, please.
-I've had the giggle fits with you enough.
-Yeah, I know. I'm so tired.
Oh yeah. I gotta get coffee.
But there's no time to rest.
I have to build the wing of the spoiler,
so that Nelson can get to work
on making the terrarium in the trunk.
Yeah, I said terrarium.
As the wing comes up and forms,
there's a top part
which I'll build out of sheet metal.
I wanted carbon fiber,
but we're running out of time,
so I'll use the materials
that we have here.
Put some complex bends in it.
Weld her all up.
And put it all together so I can get
a good idea of how this thing will look.
It's crazy.
I thought the ovals would look good
but doesn't at all.
See, I like really sleek stuff.
I'd build off the trunk straight back.
That's kind of cool.
This being raised up now is kind of
Nelson!
Lizard wardrobe.
Are you as excited as me?
Tiny little hat.
This is my favorite thing right here.
- That's you right there.
- Okay! Hi!
With some fits like this,
how could you not?
Some fits like that.
Some fits like this, shoot.
-This is the back of the seat, right?
-Mm-hmm.
So, instead of her just,
like, opening, doing this.
Hitting a button?
We got this window crank
and do pretty much this now,
where we open and close like that.
So that's where Nelson's gonna come in.
I'm gonna ask for his help
to make this automated somehow.
Nothing can never just be easy.
This piece, it can fold out and be
like a little closet to hang the clothes.
- That's pretty cute. I'm not gonna lie.
- You know?
I think you need to custom make her
an outfit that matches the car too.
-You'll help me?
-Yeah, I'm in.
Let's do it.
While Lacey's getting ready
to retrofit the console door,
I convinced Nelson to lend a hand
with the more technical aspect
of building a motorized lizard wardrobe.
I just ran with your idea.
- I just put a little servo actuator here.
- That's cool.
You just gotta hook it up to 14 volts
in the car, and we're running.
- Okay. Yeah.
- Yeah.
Let's put this thing together.
Before we can close the door
on this closet,
I'm attaching the console
to the rear panel.
Leave it to Big Lace to top it off
with a rod and hanger system
with enough space
for Daphne's favorite fits.
Feel like I just ran a marathon.
I'm so tired today. What is this?
I don't like it, but when I drew it
on paper, it looked dope.
Hmm. Very banana-y.
Yeah. Just gotta figure out
what is not working.
If this was bigger
If this was, like, big,
then it would make sense.
Oh yeah. That is the problem with this.
That's why it looks weird. It's too small.
It looks very Polly Pocket. Yeah.
-What's Polly Pocket?
-A little, pocket-sized, like, Barbie.
My sister had them. Don't ask me.
Huh.
- You're an only child. Oh my God.
- Yeah, when am I gonna play
That explains everything.
Porky Piglet aside,
Nelson makes a great point.
So I'm gonna design a beefier wing
that will fit the Miata better
and give me more real estate
for some extra solar sails.
Hey, yeah.
-That's way Yeah!
-That's so much better!
I didn't want to be mean,
but, like, the first one sucked.
Oh?
- Shayna.
- What?
When did you say
you had to paint this again?
- Tomorrow.
- Tomorrow?
Uh, yeah.
I would like to prime it later today.
Today? That's gonna be
a little bit of an issue.
We got these new set of wheels.
They're a lot more aggressive
than the factory ones were,
so I flared it out,
so now it clears our wheel.
And there was a bunch
of Bondo on this thing.
I don't know if you've seen, but it's
Your words make me not want to see it.
'Cause this is gonna require
a lot more work than I expected.
You can see that edge.
How much Bondo is on this thing?
Oh my God.
There's no way we can put more paint
on this without it cracking
because there's previous body work here,
and when you pile up a lot of material
on the panel like that,
the paint will actually crack
or just won't stick
or there's a plethora of problems
that you could have when that happens.
So, now, because we discovered this,
we'll be stripping it all down,
and the tougher part about this
is that this bodywork has to be
absolutely 100% completely straight
because it's a chameleon paint job,
or else the chameleon color
is gonna flip on every little wave.
So it's gonna make any imperfection
that we have a lot more noticeable,
and we don't want that.
I advise that we fully strip this thing
down to bare metal
-Eh
-and re-body work it.
It looks like we're in for
a pretty long night.
What happened?
- Just throwing it away.
- Why?
Just kidding. Um, I need your help.
I can cut this,
but can I cut it as good as you?
- No. Yeah. I'm good.
- Wait a minute.
-Giving you a bow.
-Can I hear that again?
Nope.
I still have to do the terrarium skylight.
So I need to cut this outer skin
and leave this inner skeleton
as best you can.
This is really cool.
We can do this as a team.
When I cut this, you don't wanna use
an angle grinder 'cause it builds heat.
If we put any kind of heat in this,
with a couple cuts, it'll warp.
That's the last thing we want here.
We're gonna give you an air hose.
Keep this plate cool.
We have to go really, really slow.
If there's one thing
I can always count on from Don,
it's finding new ways
of making me feel uncomfortable.
Okay. Hold on. Wait.
Give me good instructions.
So just like?
Just start blowing on it.
You just gotta keep it cool. Ready?
But Don brings up a great point.
We can't have our trunk lid warping
in the middle of cutting it.
Otherwise, we're on the hook
for hours of bodywork to fix it,
and that's time we do not have.
So, to combat warping,
Don suggested the use
of convection cooling with the air hose.
Spray it down, baby.
Much of the heat generated
from cutting the panel
will be transferred
to the compressed air flowing over it,
keeping it cool and sturdy.
All right, buddy.
Okey-dokey.
Bonk. Thank you.
-You know what we're missing, baby? A hug.
-What?
Oh, no, actually the job is done.
Oh God.
Even after
a long night of bodywork,
the Miata still isn't ready for paint.
So, of course, I'm dragging us all back
to the garage with me for an early start.
Sacrificing sleep for bodywork
on a beat-up Miata ain't exactly great,
but it needs to be perfect in order
for this chameleon paint job to look dope.
Initially, there was gaps
all throughout this headlight.
You could literally
stick your hand in there.
We already put some fiberglass down.
Went over that with some Mar-glass,
which is a combination of Bondo
and stranded fiberglass.
Now, we're just finishing up
a little bit of Bondo work
to make these edges nice and smooth.
These gaps have improved dramatically.
A bit more work, we'll get some primer on,
and this should be ready for paint.
With the holes cut out
of the Miata's trunk lid,
I can create a pattern
cut out the polycarbonate skylights,
and seal it off to protect
Ruhi's precious cargo from the elements.
Smart Tint's actually really cool stuff
because when you apply power to it,
this panel goes clear,
so that's something you can see
with the sample they sent.
So if you look at this,
you can't see my face, and now you can.
So that way, Daphne,
when she wants to be a sunbathing lizard,
she has the option.
When she wants privacy,
so she can change
into some of her little tutus,
changing mode, sunbathing, changing mode.
That's the idea.
I'm over here
trying to get this 360 view to work.
What are you doing?
Ever heard of these things?
360s, bird's-eye view cameras?
- No, what is it?
- A lot of new cars come with it.
Got four cameras here.
One on each mirror,
one on the front bumper,
one on the rear bumper.
It then projects those images
onto this screen that'll be on the dash,
and it's gonna give you
a bird's-eye view. It's pretty cool.
Look at you being
all cute and sophisticated.
You don't want her to break those
cool exhaust tips you're building, right?
Yeah. Ruhi getting crazy.
We're a bit against the clock
because I had to start drilling these
into the body before we paint.
You definitely don't wanna
double-side stick them on there.
You wanna make sure
that these look like they came part
If you ever double-side stick anything,
I'll give you a kick in your butt.
If you make it light enough,
you can use double-sided tape.
Don't listen to him.
Double-sided tape is dumb.
Not everything needs to be bolted
and welded with quarter-inch steel.
-If we make stuff
-Huh?
Nothing, Don.
Let's get this car done. How 'bout that?
Don can chill 'cause I'm not gonna use
double-sided tape for this.
I'm gonna use some rubber fittings
that came with the kit.
It's gonna fit nice and secure.
No worries.
The camera works.
Oh, that's not what I wanted to see.
It's not beeping.
I would have got run over.
- Don't you have a full interior to do?
- Yeah.
And you know what?
Throw in a shifter.
Aw, dude.
I shouldn't have walked over here.
Throw in the shifter down there.
Thank you, sir. I might need you
to come back and help me calibrate this.
No, I'm not going to come back anymore.
You'll just give me more work.
Shake it ♪
Tomorrow is our last day
in the garage,
and Ruhi will be stopping by
to see her Miata.
Unfortunately, it's nowhere near ready.
After shedding the existing leather,
I'm adding a custom crocodile upholstery.
But, Daphne,
you don't have to worry about nothing.
It's all synthetic.
Lacey!
Are these the Miata seats?
Don't judge me.
Don, what do you think?
Dude, what is that?
That doesn't even make sense.
Hey, I went off the rails.
-Hopefully everyone else loves it.
-We'll find out.
Nelson and Oscar are wrapping up
the bodywork on the skylight trunk lid,
which has to be perfect for the chameleon
paint job to shine from all angles.
Lacey's on wheel duty
Such a graceful process.
mounting these new tires
on Ruhi's new wheels.
Now we're gonna let the machine
do some of the work.
This is gonna help Daphne
be relaxed on the road,
to ensure that her ride is silky smooth.
On the other side of the garage,
Don is wiring up the spoiler
with solar panels to power up
the terrarium UV lights.
Now we got the solar panel thing all set,
a couple tack welds, and this is finished.
And my boy Nelson
is finishing up the trunk
by installing Daphne's
new home away from home
and providing power to the Smart Tint
by wiring up
the Miata's electrical system.
Well, that looks cool.
Me and Lacey are installing
the rear interior panel
to complete Daphne's new wardrobe.
- Hit it!
- Ooh! That's right.
Let's get this ready for paint.
As we clock out
for some much-needed sleep,
Shayna's clocking in to lay down
her most ambitious paint job yet,
the color-shifting chameleon paint.
And it wouldn't be
our final resurrected ride
without a special touch
from my girl Shayna,
finishing her paint job
with a gold leaf surprise
that we hope Ruhi will love.
Ruhi, this is a very expensive paint job.
Please be careful with it.
Please.
Ruhi, my favorite comedy cocktail server.
-Hi!
-How you doing, baby?
-So good.
-And Daphne.
You got a little jean dress on, girl.
Go ahead.
Fasho.
We got a dope-ass whip
that is ready for you.
-How you feeling?
-I'm a little nervous.
- Yeah.
- Gonna be a wild one.
It's gonna be fine.
You ready to see this thing?
-I'm ready. Let's go.
-All right, let's get it.
Daphne, prepare your lizard ass
for our final ride of the season.
Hit it!
Ooh!
Oh my God. Your family, Daphne.
Your Mohawk brothers.
A-weema-weh, a-weema-weh ♪
Know what I'm talking about?
Close your eyes.
-Okay.
-Daphne, close your damn eyes.
I'll cover hers too.
And here's your whip!
Oh my God!
- Oh my God, this is amazing!
- You're supposed to stay there.
Bring yo' ass back over here.
- That paint is crazy.
- This is insane.
-That color is so amazing.
-You gotta stay over here.
Look at the wheels!
I know.
They don't look like anymore.
I cannot believe this.
This is the coolest car ever.
Let's talk about this outside.
Shayna, I know you were mad-excited
about this paint job.
I was really excited about this one.
We stuck with the lizard theme,
and we gave you a chameleon paint job.
And we also added little lizard footprints
in some variegated gold leaf
by each of the door handles
because I thought
it was a cute little touch.
It's amazing.
Yo, Oscar. Talk to me, bro.
It was pretty beat up
when we got it.
We installed a brand-new body kit,
full bumper conversion,
and replaced your old, busted headlights
as well as your taillights.
I hit a lot of things before. So
Well, we wanted
to help you out with that,
so we went ahead
and installed a 360 camera.
That way, when you're reversing,
you can see what you're gonna hit.
- Oh my God. That's amazing.
- Jesus.
It's like God is helping you
get out of parking spots. It'll be sick.
From head to toe,
we revamped the whole interior
with faux scratch-resistant
crocodile skin.
This is so cool.
- New seat heaters.
- It's the happiest I've seen her.
-Oh yeah.
-Look at that. She loves that.
Yo, she's like, "My brothers and sisters"
No, I'm playing.
How you feeling about
all the lizard stuff?
This is the coolest car
I've ever seen in my life.
I'm glad you like
all the lizard stuff
- 'cause there's actually a lot more.
- Oh jeez.
-Yeah! I knew there was more.
-Oh my goodness.
There's more.
Oh my gosh!
Inside the trunk is
a climate-controlled terrarium.
Look at your new home.
This is a skylight so she can
enjoy the sun and get natural UV light.
Or with the push of a button
- Ooh!
- it goes clear.
That is amazing.
-You see something very special here?
-Spoiler.
I made you a custom spoiler
for your little race car.
I built everything by hand,
but that's not the cool part.
The solar panels
actually power the battery
for the UV light for your tarbonium.
Oh my goodness.
- Terrarium. Terrarium.
- Terrarium.
Stop putting "bone" in words.
I got one thing that I requested,
and they made it happen.
And it is the stupidest thing
I've ever requested.
I love it. I'm excited about this.
Chris had this bright idea.
As you remember,
you had a compartment here.
Hell yeah.
I love how slow it moves.
Oh my gosh, it's a little closet.
That's really her skirt.
Also, I had the idea that maybe Daphne
needed a little outfit to match the car.
So I whipped that up.
Denim girls ♪
This is amazing.
She can have a lizard fashion show,
you know what I'm saying?
- Look at that.
- Oh!
Oh my God.
Styling little girl. Styling on 'em.
Hold the skirt.
Ruhi,
now that you've seen everything,
would you say that your ride
has been, uh, resurrected?
- My car has been resurrected. Definitely.
- Hell yeah!
We did it, y'all!
Why y'all standing in line like that?
Hell yeah.
Okay.
I am so shocked.
I can't even believe
how much went into my car.
I don't recognize it at all.
Look how happy she is.
The garage team,
they really put thought into everything,
and I can't thank them enough.
What's your favorite thing?
I love it all, honestly,
but the paint job is insane.
Yeah!
It's about damn time
somebody chose the damn paint job.
I actually feel like
I have a functional car
that I'm not scared to drive around
and be embarrassed to see in, so
I can't wait to show everyone
how cool my car is.
Yes.
Now when you pull up to the Store,
we still gonna make fun of your ass, but
damn, we gonna wanna jump
in this ride with you.
We are better, better together ♪
We changed a lot of rides,
