American Restoration Season 5 episode 6, Dodger Doggin' It, follows the iconic restoration expert, Rick Dale, and his talented team as they endeavor to bring three unique and classic items back to life. In this episode, they show off their skills with restoring a 1950s bowling alley token slot machine, a 1930s gas pump, and a 1966 Dodge Charger.

The first restoration project in this episode features the 1950s bowling alley token slot machine. The machine had been in a private collection for a long time, and had likely not been used in many years. Rick and his team approach the restoration process with great care and attention to detail, carefully disassembling the machine piece by piece. They begin by cleaning each piece thoroughly, meticulously replacing any parts that are missing or broken.

After a few setbacks and several hours of hard work, the team is able to restore the slot machine to its original working condition. The fully restored machine is then put to the test, revealing its authentic charm and retro appeal.

Next, the team tackles the 1930s gas pump restoration. This particular pump was in rough shape, after years of neglect and exposure to the elements. The team quickly gets to work, methodically taking apart the pump, cleaning and sandblasting each individual piece. They also use their expert welding skills to repair any cracks or dents.

After several hours of hard work, the gas pump is transformed into its original beauty and authenticity. The team wows the client with the finished product, and it's clear that the restoration is a true success.

The final project of the episode features the team's work on a 1966 Dodge Charger, one of the most iconic muscle cars of its time. The car is in bad shape and in need of some serious love and restoration. The team gets right to work, dismantling the car to its bare bones and assessing the damage.

After determining the scope of the work, the team begins the painstaking process of restoring the car to its former glory. They replace old parts, mend broken metal, and even custom make pieces that can't be found anywhere else.

As the restoration process continues, the car starts to take shape, becoming more recognizable as the iconic muscle car that it is. Finally, after many long hours of work, the team unveils the fully restored Dodge Charger to the client. It's clear that the team has put their heart and soul into the project, and the client is thrilled with the result.

Overall, American Restoration Season 5 episode 6, Dodger Doggin' It, showcases the incredible skills and talent of Rick Dale and his team. It's a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the restoration process, and a reminder of the timeless appeal of classic objects and automobiles. Whether you're a history buff, a vintage collector, or simply interested in home restoration projects, this episode is a must-watch.
