Hoonigan Builds a Donk - Season 1

  This Donk project has – hands down – the best chop of any build we’ve done in this shop so far. Zac might have to haul back out here for retribution. And if that’s not enough, today’s the day t...

  You know what the worst part about a car build is? The finishing part. So many little details, bolts, and brackets… half of which we’ve tossed or lost. But ya know what, that’s just a chance fo...

  So we may be building a “race donk”, but there’s NO way we would let this thing out the door without having the right amount of bump in the trunk. Why not get you a box that could do both? Our ...

  Thanks to Dollar Shave Club for sponsoring. Go to http://DollarShaveClub.com/Hoonigan to get your starter set for $5. After that, the restock box ships razors at regular price. Scotto’s newfoun...

  What’s more Hoonigan than getting a fully custom carbon fiber roof and hood for the donk from our friends at K&N, all while drilling out a grip of hockey pucks to make some body mounts? Wha...

    Donk paint ain’t nothing to mess with. After going back and forth on what color to paint this project, we headed out to our local body shop - Horn's Collision Center - to get some real life sa...

    Did landau tops ever reeeeally seem like a good idea? Even if they did, we can almost guarantee that most of ‘em are hiding some real nightmares these days. Just like ours. Can’t win ‘em all. ...

    We said it, and we mean it: we’re gunning to have this donk project make 1000 horsepower. Will we get there? Who knows. But we’re definitely going to throw a big ‘ol blower at it to try and g...

Now we’re not saying we’re the first ones to toss a drag chute onto a donk, but it definitely ain’t something you see on your typical ’71 Caprice. But then again, not much about this build is typi...
