Dale is one of the top dogs at the foundation that supplies both scholarship funding and project cars for the prestigious car-building college Wyoming Tech in Laramie, Wyo. Dale secures old donated vehicles for the school. But, unbeknownst to Dale, the OVERHAULIN' pranksters took one of those cars from his property and brought it to the WyoTech campus. It's there that over 30 student builders, along with the OVERHAULIN' build team of Chip Foose, Troy Trepanier, Bryan Fuller and Levi Green, transformed the dusty old '56 Chevy Bel Air into something truly special for the school.

The finished car will be the mascot for WyoTech, as well as a possible scholarship funding source if the Chevy is auctioned off. But before that, Dale was led on a goose chase during the week of the build, hearing that the car was discovered crossing state lines and on its way to a chop shop. OVERHAULIN' made use of the school and city, painting Western themes, as Dale was finally led back to Wyo Tech, only to see a car that in almost no way resembled the one stolen from him just a week before.
