The owner has always loved classic vehicles but also wanted a practical pickup truck for hauling and towing. So, she brought her Impala to the team at Ekstensive Metal Works to make her dream a reality.

The episode begins with the team at Ekstensive Metal Works assessing the Impala and discussing how they will transform it into a truck. The team, led by owner Bill Carlton, is excited to start the conversion process and begins by removing the Impala's roof and back seat.

The team decides to give the Impala truck a sleek and modern look by painting it a matte black color and adding red accents. They install a new suspension system and add larger tires to provide better stability and handling. The team also upgrades the engine to a more powerful V8, which gives the Impala truck the strength it needs to haul heavy loads.

As the transformation process continues, the team runs into some unexpected challenges. The structure of the Impala's frame proves to be more difficult to modify than they initially anticipated. However, the team perseveres and comes up with innovative solutions to make the Impala truck a reality.

During the build, Randi, the owner, comes to visit the shop to check on the progress. She is pleased to see her Impala transformed into a beautiful and functional truck, which is exactly what she had envisioned. The team ensures that every detail is perfect, from the custom interior to the red accents on the grill.

Finally, the Impala truck is complete, and Randi comes to pick it up. She is blown away by the final product and cannot believe how well the team at Ekstensive Metal Works was able to bring her vision to life. She takes the truck for a spin and enjoys the power and strength that comes along with it.
