All Girls Garage season 6 episode 3 is entitled "Panel Trucks". This episode features three expert mechanics, Cristy Lee, Bogi Lateiner and Rachel De Barros, as they take on a variety of panel trucks. They work to upgrade and customize these workhorse vehicles, turning them into unique and stunning works of art.
The episode begins with the three ladies introducing themselves and explaining the purpose of the show. They then move onto the first truck, a 1957 Chevy panel truck. This truck is owned by a man who wants a complete overhaul. He wants it to become a modern, reliable vehicle while keeping its classic look intact. The team starts by tearing down the truck, and then begins the work of upgrading key components such as the suspension, steering, and brakes.
Throughout the process, they run into a few issues, such as having to replace the old brake booster with a new one, but they remain determined and continue to work diligently until they complete the restoration. After working on the engine for a while, the girls create a one-of-a-kind custom exhaust for the vehicle.
The next truck they work on is a 1956 Ford panel truck. This truck is a favorite because it's in much better condition than the Chevy truck they had just finished. This truck is owned by a retired firefighter who wants to honor his past profession by turning the truck into a fire truck-inspired vehicle. The team installs a custom-built roll cage to protect passengers and cargo, and adds a custom paint job that features a red and yellow fire engine theme. They also add fire extinguishers, a first aid kit, and a functional water hose in the back.
Finally, they work on a 1965 Chevy panel truck. This truck is owned by a woman who wants it to be a showcase piece for her business. The ladies decide to turn this into a mobile boutique clothing store. So, they begin by making some internal customizations such as installing hanging racks and shelving. Then they add some exterior modifications that will help the truck stand out on the road such as custom window cutouts, paint job and a custom wrap with the company logo. It now serves as a rolling advertisement for a fashion business.
Throughout the entire episode, each of the three mechanics share their knowledge, preferences and skills in order to help bring each of the panel trucks to life. While they each have different approaches and individual working style, their collaboration and commitment to the project are evident throughout each segment. The team's hard work pays off, as they create unique and beautiful vehicles that their owners are very proud to have.
In conclusion, All Girls Garage season 6 episode 3 "Panel Trucks" showcases the expertise and skills of three talented mechanics as they work to restore and customize classic panel trucks. The three panel trucks featured are transformed into modern vehicles that capture the essence of the original while adding unique customizations that reflect the owners' personalities. The episode serves as a great example of the creativity that can be unleashed when women are given the opportunity to thrive in a male-dominated industry.
