Holden Bros. Restos Season 1

A '69 VW van comes back to life as the "5-guy getaway van," with some peace, love and mud tires. A period-correct paint job and new interior will finish the job.

No one would expect to see this 1985 Mercedes-Benz come over a hill in the desert, but when the brothers cut out the fenders for the off-road "safari package," re-route the exhaust and customize a brush guard, the sky's the limit.

The brothers stance and drop a Cummins diesel into an '85 Dodge and turn it into a Sunday shredder in classic "pro street" style. Combine that with a root beer-colored paint job, and every car guy will want to sit behind the wheel of this instant classic.

For fun in the sun, and the mud, and everywhere else you want to go, the boys take a 1988 Blazer and create the ultimate toy on wheels -- an off-road beater with tons of smiles per gallon.

After installing a utility bed, an upgrade to the wheel and tire package, interior upholstery and a fresh paint job, this '66 Ford F-350 will be the utility pickup everyone wants, and almost anybody can have.

Once the brothers slap on some big tires, add a secret Cobra engine under the hood, suicide the doors, and top it off with surf racks, a '76 postal Jeep goes from long-retired civil servant to THE beach cruiser.

The Brothers take a standard, boring Volvo 240 wagon, add a new small-block LS V-8, suspension, interior, paint and tint, and we go from Grandma's grocery-getter to an unrecognizable power wagon.

Road trips will never be the same when the brothers take what was once used to get the family cross country, or to the beach, and make it the baddest hot rod in the neighborhood.

Pikes Peak fans will shed a tear as a '67 Toronado is transformed into the ultimate ode to the fastest-stocker record holder.

Once a '85 Jeep is completed, you'll be just as comfortable driving it to dinner on Friday date night as you would be taking it off-road Saturday morning.
