Two rival teams face off to overcome the challenge of the episode's theme. Using mechanical prowess, engineering, luck, and problem solving, they rely on using only the items found in an unusually well-stocked junkyard to rise to the occasion in the hopes of becoming the Junkyard Wars Season Champion! Junkyard Wars was adapted from the UK TV Series titled "Scrapheap Challenge".
