Boosting The Ford Eco Boost/ Buffing Nasty Paint Back To Life

Season: 6 | Episode: 6

One of the hottest new rigs on the market is the Ford F150 with the new 6 cylinder eco-boost engine. But is it all it can be? Well, today on GEARZ Stacey takes a new eco-boost powered Ford and shows you some simple upgrades that can boost performance AND fuel economy of this great new engine...at a price you can afford. Then Stacey rolls in the nastiest, grungiest, barn-find Mustang that you can imagine and shows you the steps and tools required to buff an old nasty paint job back to life. Did we mention that this paint is BLACK!?! All to prove the point that if it can be done with a black car...it can be done with any car...and GEARZ is the show that shows you how to do it!
