Chris Jacobs and the Overhaulin' team steal a 1965 Ford Thunderbird from a Deputy Sheriff. The car once belonged to the Sheriff's father who is now deceased, so he really treasures it.

With the help of the Sheriff's beautiful wife (they have 8 teenage children!) the team not only completely stymies the lawman, but they really put him to the test with some of the biggest pranks ever, including a very tense moment at the junkyard with a car crusher. But it's all worth it in the end when he sees Chip Foose's stellar creation.
