With Aaron on vacation, Richard gets the Monkeys to give the Gas Monkey treatment to the first car he owned back in high school, a vomit green '74 Mercury Comet.

Aaron has shock news - just as Richard agrees to a drag strip showdown with Street Outlaws' Big Chief, so the crew must build the race car.

Aaron toils to finish his BMW alone as race day approaches, and Richard faces disaster with the Challenger on its final test run.

After building and selling more cars than they can count, Richard and Aaron hit the beach for a much-needed break so they can finally answer some of the questions and comments their fans have sent in over the years.

It's a new start at the garage. Richard puts the Monkeys in charge of hot-rodding a '73 Chevy P30 Step Van for their first big build without Aaron.
