Big Block V8 Engine & Vintage Race Car TIME-LAPSE Restoration

When the Hagerty Barn Find Hunters first met Snowball Bishop (Barn Find Hunter – Ep. 44) and saw his old Ford coupe dirt track racer he had sitting behind his barn, they knew they had to see it back on the track.

After some unfortunate delays and a good bit of blood, sweat, and tears, this Chrysler-440-V8-powered race car is back to its former glory. It may be a handful on the corners, but hearing it rip up the track again after a 50-year hiatus is the stuff dreams are made of.

Follow along as the team gives this project the legendary Redline Rebuild time-lapse treatment and show you every single step it takes to completely rebuild a classic Mopar V-8 engine and “restore” the hacked-together Ford coupe Modified it powers.
