Season 5

Martin Brothers is offered a free barn find 1956 Ford, but they pay for it anyway. They build it as a shop truck. Joe custom paints a dragster.

Joe uses all his tricks to make the '56 Ford truck look like it's been parked in a field for more than 50 years but drive like a modern muscle machine.

The crew gets stuck into a legendary ‘77 Bandit Trans Am – and they're going big on style. Then, a '67 Chevelle returns for a supercharger engine.

Joe is deep into the rebuild of a '77 Bandit Trans Am, but the T-Top needs strengthening before this classic car can get roaring down the road again.

The crew transforms an iconic '70 Chevelle into a drag car. They make it mean with a monster motor, big tyres, trick frame and a roll cage.

It's open-car surgery as Joe and the team work to realize his dream of a cold-blooded '70 Chevelle race car with a chopped roof. Complications with the modified roof arise when the big-block monster motor obstructs driver visibility.

Joe stumbles across a '64 Ford Galaxie in great shape with only 60,000 miles on it. For Joe, it isn't enough to restore it to 1964, which means a trick frame with all-new steering, tires and a Coyote engine that will really make the car blast off.

Three years after a unicorn first rolled into the shop, Joe is more determined than ever to honour a 1936 Hudson owner's dying wishes to bring the car back from the dead. The ultimate Iron Resurrection will put Joe's exceptional metal skills to the test.

In this corner, weighing in at only 2,400 pounds, the 1965 Ford Falcon! For a former professional wrestler, there isn't a better 50th birthday present than restoring this cult classic. For that, he puts his trust in Joe Martin & his world-class team.

A former customer has returned to the shop with a new project, a 1950 5-window Chevy truck. But this isn't just any car in his collection, it's the crown jewel. But to Joe's horror, this prized possession might have some seriously unsalvageable damage.
