Roadkill (2012)
Ride along with Hot Rod's David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan as they continue their love/hate relationship with hot rods, street machines and other highly strung performance vehicles. In Roadkill, Freiburger and Finnegan hit the road in everything from a 1968 Ford Ranchero to a 1500 horsepower Camaro called the F-Bomb. Just getting to their destination is an adventure.
Seasons & Episode
Steve Dulcich joins Freiburger and Finnegan to rescue a stripped '69 Plymouth Belvedere that's been sitting stagnant. The guys bring parts, including a 426 Hemi and a 4-speed trans, to the junkyard and drive out with essentially a cheaper Road Runner.
The matchup you've been waiting for! Finnegan and Freiburger go heads-up on the dragstrip in their eight-second project cars. After a road trip in the Blasphemi, the guys add a new supercharger and dyno tune the '55 Hemi-powered Chevy to over 1,000 hp, before seeing how its new tech holds up against Freiburger's old school, all-mechanical, big-block '31 Ford Model A
There’s no better way to see the sights of America’s highways and byways than to take a cruise in a land yacht. On this episode of Roadkill, Freiburger and Finnegan hit the road in a literal boat. After purchasing a 1957 Glass Craft affixed to a 2010 Nissan chassis that at least one person thought was a good idea, the guys set out on a Midwest road trip in the dead of winter.
The original Mazdarati 1974 Mazda RPU minitruck, powered by an Olds 455 in the bed, never lived up to its hype. Freiburger and Finnegan attempt to build their own mid-engine Mazda minitruck by scavenging a drivetrain from a Hot Rod Garage project vehicle.
Freiburger and Finnegan add a turbocharger to the 1974 Mazda RPU named Mazdarati 2.0. After an impressive turn on the dyno, the guys hit the drag strip to see if the mid-engine, 5.3L LS4-powered mini-truck can outperform its predecessor.
