Bill and his team restore a wrecked 1970 Suburban hauler, bringing the vehicle back to road‑worthy condition. In the same episode they install a brand‑new engine in a 1965 Plymouth Belvedere II, significantly boosting its performance for the classic model with extra muscle.

The Grand Finale is an episode‑length programme that follows Bill and his crew as they tackle a pair of classic‑car projects. It is presented as a single instalment in the series, focusing on the hands‑on work carried out by the team. In the first segment the team takes on a badly damaged 1970 Suburban hauler. They strip the wreck, repair the chassis and bodywork, and painstakingly restore the vehicle until it is road‑worthy once again. The process showcases the practical steps required to bring a long‑neglected truck back to life. The second feature of the episode centres on a 1965 Plymouth Belvedere II. Rather than a full restoration, the car receives a performance boost through the installation of a brand‑new engine. The swap gives the Belvedere extra power while retaining its original styling. Both projects are presented together, highlighting the contrasting approaches of full reconstruction and targeted mechanical upgrades. Throughout the episode Bill and his team demonstrate the skills and techniques needed to revive or enhance classic vehicles, providing a clear view of their workshop methods.
