In season two of Speed is the New Black, viewers get a glimpse of some of the most breathtaking and captivating car restoration projects, including the latest episode titled Heavy Metal Model A. This premier episode revolves around the transformation of a 1929 Ford Model A into a custom street rod. Noah Alexander, the founder of the Classic Car Studio, leads the project with the help of his talented team of designers and mechanics.

The episode opens with Noah sitting in a local coffee shop, brainstorming some ideas for the new project. As he sips his coffee, he sketches out a rough draft of the car's design on a napkin. He envisions turning the Model A into a sleek and glossy hot rod with a black and silver color scheme. Once the design is finalized, the team gets to work.

The first step in the conversion process is to strip the car down to its bare metal and remove every component that won't be part of the new design. The crew gets down to work, removing the fenders, engine, interior, doors, and other unnecessary components to make room for the new custom parts. Once stripped, the Classic Car Studio team gives the car a thorough cleaning, preparing the metal for the next phase.

The team's first customized piece is the new chassis. They opt for a laser-cut design with a lowered ride height, an air ride suspension, and an adjustable 4-link rear suspension. This chassis gives the car a sleek look and improved performance compared to its original design. The team puts the new chassis in place before installing a Ford Coyote engine.

The engine mount and cross member are custom-built for this build, and the team installs a custom intake, throttle body, and exhaust system. The whole setup creates a stunning, throaty roar that brings a smile to everyone's face. With the engine in place, the team runs the wiring harness and cooling system before moving on to the next phase.

The next step is to give the car its unique look. The Classic Car Studio team installs a custom-made grille and front bumper with a sleek and modern design. The team adds custom-fabricated side skirts and rear valances, which add a nice aerodynamic touch to the car's design. The car's exterior is then painted with high-end DuPont paint in a black and silver color scheme. The team adds the finishing touches, including a cool pinstripe design on the body panels, which gives the car a classic and vintage appearance.

The interior of the car is given a complete overhaul. The team installs luxury leather bucket seats, suede headliner, and custom door panels that add a touch of class to the car. They add a modern entertainment system, featuring an iPad mini, and dual 10-inch subwoofers mounted in the back seat. The dashboard is customized with a sleek design, including a custom gauge cluster. Finally, the Classic Car Studio team installs custom-made floor mats with a unique design that compliments the car's overall appearance.

After several weeks of hard work and meticulous attention to detail, the Heavy Metal Model A is complete, and it's time for the final reveal. The car's owner is speechless as he sees his car's new look for the first time. Noah is thrilled to see the owner's reaction, and it's clear that he's poured his heart and soul into this project.

In conclusion, Heavy Metal Model A is an episode of Speed is the New Black that showcases the team's incredible craftsmanship and attention to detail. Viewers are treated to a fantastic transformation story that takes an old car and turns it into a sleek and modern street rod. Throughout the episode, the Classic Car Studio team demonstrates their unique skills, and it's clear that no detail is too small when it comes to making their projects stand out.
