In the hill country of Central Texas, the Holden brothers, Willie and Stephen, are transforming budget builds into incredible rides, and it's all happening on Holden Bros. Restos.

The Holden brothers are mechanics by trade and true to their Texan roots: down-to-earth, patriotic, community-oriented, and dedicated to family.
The series follows the brothers as they combine craftsmanship and resourcefulness to revamp vehicles on modest budgets.
The builds are accessible vehicles chosen by what the brothers think they can quickly turn around within budget while having the most fun.
In each episode, the Holden brothers find a car or truck for around $5,000 and use the rest of their $25,000 budget to transform it into a ride any gearhead would enjoy.
From a 1966 Ford F-350 to a 1988 Chevy K5 Blazer, the season features a variety of stand-out builds, including:
Transforming a 1993 Volvo 240 Wagon from a "grocery getter" to a power wagon.
Modifying a 1976 Jeep DJ-5 Postal Truck to be a beach-friendly weekend cruiser.
Converting a 1985 Mercedes Benz 300d Turbo Diesel into an offroad safari package.

Making a 1971 Chevy Chevelle Wagon the baddest hot rod in the neighbourhood.
