A group of seasoned vehicle body shop mechanics, which calls itself the "Chrome Shop Mafia", receive letters and calls from people telling them about truck drivers they feel are deserving of a truck "make over." The crew goes to "steal" the truck, primarily big rigs, and give the driver's a similar loaner truck. The truck is taken back to the shop and given a complete make over, including customized designs based around a specific theme, electronics enhancements, and mechanical upgrades to tires, exhaust pipes, etc. At the end of each episode, they bring in the driver to see their upgraded vehicle and give them a tour of what was done.
In addition to big rigs, the crew has overhauled pick-up trucks and various specialty trucks such as dump trucks and an ice cream truck.
