what's worth anything

for all these years,

this in a 250, a 350,
126
00:03:09,623 --> 00:03:11,323
a 400, a 500,
and a 750.
127

Jersey jon: -750.
128
00:03:13,060 --> 00:03:14,726
Mike: A lot of people called
these "the widowmaker"
129
00:03:14,828 --> 00:03:17,429
because the power
band was incredible.
130
00:03:17,531 --> 00:03:18,497
Mike: 2-stroke triple.
131
00:03:18,599 --> 00:03:19,464

like pissed off chainsaws.

Mike: [laughs]
yeah.
133
00:03:21,802 --> 00:03:22,501
Mike: Once you got
to a certain rpm,
134
00:03:22,603 --> 00:03:23,735
it just went
eeee-oomm!
135
00:03:23,837 --> 00:03:24,703
and it just took off.
136
00:03:24,805 --> 00:03:25,737
Tony: This bike was
fast as hell,
137
00:03:25,839 --> 00:03:27,072
and it did scare the
hell out of me.
138
00:03:27,174 --> 00:03:30,642
Tony: In 1974, that was the
fastest bike on the market.
139
00:03:30,744 --> 00:03:32,778
Did well over 100
miles-an-hour.
140
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:33,812
You twist the
throttle on that thing,
141
00:03:33,914 --> 00:03:35,647
you better be leaning
forward 'cause the
142
00:03:35,749 --> 00:03:37,282
front wheel is
going to come up.
143
00:03:37,384 --> 00:03:38,684
Mike: [whistles]
144
00:03:38,786 --> 00:03:39,851
jersey jon: That
tank is sweet, man.
145
00:03:39,954 --> 00:03:40,419
Tony: You were going to
do a wheelie whether
146
00:03:40,521 --> 00:03:41,720
you wanted to or not.
147
00:03:41,922 --> 00:03:43,956
Mike: Let's get a
little bit of a look here.
148
00:03:44,058 --> 00:03:45,924
Mike: The japanese super
bikes that were the king of
149
00:03:46,026 --> 00:03:48,794
the road in the day, are
extremely collectable now.
150
00:03:48,896 --> 00:03:51,630
If you look at '69
honda cb750 sandcast,
151
00:03:51,732 --> 00:03:53,899
you look at the
'73 z1 900 kawi.
152
00:03:54,001 --> 00:03:57,603
I mean, these were bikes
that really changed the
153
00:03:57,705 --> 00:03:59,238
evolution of
the motorcycle.
154
00:03:59,340 --> 00:04:00,839
Mike: Woo!
155
00:04:00,941 --> 00:04:01,840
Mike: The kawasaki
triple is one of those.
156
00:04:01,942 --> 00:04:03,609
Mike: Did you look up
the value of these?
157
00:04:03,711 --> 00:04:06,011
Tony: It's worth
at least $750.
158
00:04:06,113 --> 00:04:07,946
Mike: Yeah, for- for one
that's like really bad shape.
159
00:04:08,048 --> 00:04:09,915
Tony: I went on the- the
internet and looked up the
160
00:04:10,017 --> 00:04:13,619
book value, they range all
the way from $5,800
161
00:04:13,721 --> 00:04:15,654
down to 750 in
fair condition.
162
00:04:15,756 --> 00:04:17,823
Mike: Some will
even bring 5,000.
163
00:04:17,925 --> 00:04:19,791
A bike that would
bring 5,000 would be like,
164
00:04:19,893 --> 00:04:21,727
like showroom
condition, like brand new.
165
00:04:21,829 --> 00:04:23,495
Jersey jon: No
pitting on the cases,
166
00:04:23,597 --> 00:04:24,563
all the
chrome's nice.
167
00:04:24,665 --> 00:04:26,265
See if it kicks
over, man.
168
00:04:26,367 --> 00:04:28,333
Mike: Ahh...
169
00:04:28,435 --> 00:04:30,135
It's locked up.
170
00:04:30,237 --> 00:04:31,003
Jersey jon: Probably a little
corrosion in the cylinders or
171
00:04:31,105 --> 00:04:31,670
something, pull
the plugs off and...
172
00:04:31,772 --> 00:04:33,005
Throw some
oil in there.
173
00:04:33,107 --> 00:04:36,441
Mike: What- what do- what

be honest with you,
182
00:04:48,789 --> 00:04:49,821
to get it to the
point where it runs,
183
00:04:49,923 --> 00:04:50,455
it's no big deal, there's
just little things
184
00:04:50,557 --> 00:04:52,257

bike is original paint,
189

it's got the original
pipes, and the seat's intact.

really nice and clean,

and once the stuff goes,

it's really- you
can't bring it back.

that would rule the road again,

chock full of militaria.

wants him to keep it upstairs.

Wow...

deal with this?

an insane collection of stuff.

Rob: Yeah.
250
00:06:18,512 --> 00:06:19,611
Mostly world war ii 'cause
my dad was in world war ii,
251
00:06:19,713 --> 00:06:20,545
and that kind
of got me going.
252
00:06:20,647 --> 00:06:22,748
Rob: I've always
collected.
253
00:06:22,850 --> 00:06:24,049
As a kid I collected
baseball cards.
254
00:06:24,151 --> 00:06:26,752
My dad served in world war
ii, one day I guess I found
255
00:06:26,854 --> 00:06:29,421
in the closet his
uniform and his stuff,
256
00:06:29,523 --> 00:06:30,689
started playing army.
257
00:06:30,791 --> 00:06:31,857
Danielle: That's
the connection, huh,
258
00:06:31,959 --> 00:06:33,225
your dad was in world
war ii, and it just...
259
00:06:33,327 --> 00:06:34,626
Rob: Yeah.

Rob: Different souvenirs
he brought back stuff.
263
00:06:38,132 --> 00:06:39,030
Robbie: The air corps
stuff, he was in the air corps,
264
00:06:39,133 --> 00:06:41,767
so I've really zeroed in
on collecting air corps.
265
00:06:41,869 --> 00:06:43,769
And that just kind of
snowballed to a
266

of military stuff.
267

stacked up in here.

overflow of the collection.

military stuff mostly,

00:06:58,285 --> 00:07:02,320
but I like picking and buying
any type of little collectible.

what we got here.

if the carburetor
wasn't set right,

it would have tested the
vacuum; your engine's smoking?
293
00:07:34,688 --> 00:07:35,754
Maybe the
compression was bad.
294
00:07:35,856 --> 00:07:37,889
These engine
analyzers did all of that.

hook it up to a computer.

I've been collecting bicycles,

that's unusual,

I'm like a raccoon in a
trashcan, man,

00:09:53,393 --> 00:09:54,659

it's got the tank,

look at that
tank, mike.
365
00:09:57,097 --> 00:09:58,897
Mike: The bike itself is
what they call a monark 5-bar.
366
00:09:58,999 --> 00:10:02,167
So there's 2 top tubes
and there's 2 down tubes.

2, 4, 5.

10 or 12 years old.

miles every day on that thing.

the basket on the front,
379
00:10:22,923 --> 00:10:23,822
he was obviously
carrying something.
380
00:10:23,924 --> 00:10:25,757
He's got the little
siren on the front fork.
381
00:10:25,859 --> 00:10:27,192
He's like, hey I'm
coming through, man.
382
00:10:27,294 --> 00:10:28,860
Look out.
383
00:10:28,962 --> 00:10:29,761
Mike: Here's the great
thing about this bike,
384
00:10:29,863 --> 00:10:30,996
is that it's got
mismatched parts on it.
385
00:10:31,098 --> 00:10:34,866
Tony: Back in the '40s,
you couldn't buy a new bike,
386
00:10:34,968 --> 00:10:37,135
'cause all the steel was
going to the war effort,
387
00:10:37,237 --> 00:10:40,605
so all you could do was buy a
secondhand bike and fix it up.
388
00:10:40,707 --> 00:10:42,273
Mike: So these
handlebars...
389
00:10:42,376 --> 00:10:43,842
Tony: Yeah.
390
00:10:43,944 --> 00:10:44,643
Mike: ...Are what they
call gull-wing bars,
391
00:10:44,745 --> 00:10:46,745
these are off of
a shelby airflow,
392
00:10:46,847 --> 00:10:48,513
okay, these are the
deluxe handlebars
393
00:10:48,615 --> 00:10:49,981
that sweep
back at you.
394
00:10:50,083 --> 00:10:51,416

are extremely hard to find,
395
00:10:51,518 --> 00:10:53,084
those gull-wing bars.
396
00:10:53,186 --> 00:10:56,855
Mike: And then this seat is
also off of a shelby airflow,
397
00:10:56,957 --> 00:10:59,791

on it are horizontal.

the tank off of, mike?
399
00:11:01,461 --> 00:11:02,193
What do you think?
400
00:11:02,295 --> 00:11:03,962
Mike: Possibly a
sidewalk speed bike.
401
00:11:04,064 --> 00:11:05,430
Back in the '30s, they were
making bikes that look
402
00:11:05,532 --> 00:11:07,298
like little motorcycles.
403
00:11:07,401 --> 00:11:08,400
You can see...
404
00:11:08,502 --> 00:11:09,534
What does that say?

Moto-bike, yeah.
412
00:11:16,643 --> 00:11:17,809
Mike: Yeah, so it's a moto-bike,
so this is- this is off of a
413
00:11:17,911 --> 00:11:18,576
little sidewalk bike
called a moto-bike.

Tony: I want to see it go
to somebody that's

00:11:23,550 --> 00:11:24,849
going to make use of it.
419
00:11:24,951 --> 00:11:26,818
I don't want to see
it go to the landfill.
420
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:28,520
Mike: I mean, overall,
the condition of the
421
00:11:28,622 --> 00:11:30,121
bike is not
that great.
422
00:11:30,223 --> 00:11:32,590
But you know what, the bike
with the different parts on it,
423
00:11:32,693 --> 00:11:34,125
is- is what
truly makes it...
424
00:11:34,227 --> 00:11:37,362
Mike: All of this stuff adds
to the personality of the bike.
425
00:11:37,464 --> 00:11:38,296
Mike: I'd pay 300.
426
00:11:38,398 --> 00:11:40,331

this exercise again,
430
00:11:44,104 --> 00:11:48,173
for cleaning out, I am
absolutely going to have someone
431
00:11:48,275 --> 00:11:54,512
help me, because I clearly have
no idea what things are worth.
432
00:11:54,915 --> 00:11:55,780
Christine: Dad, why
don't I get a chair,
433
00:11:55,882 --> 00:11:56,614
and then that way you
can hang out here
434
00:11:56,717 --> 00:11:58,116
and I'll bring
them in there.

collect these things,

00:12:16,970 --> 00:12:18,603
they want to make a
nice display out of them,
453
00:12:18,705 --> 00:12:19,270

the condition.

do 35 for the pair?

gimme that thing.
481
00:12:52,372 --> 00:12:53,438
Christine: They're looking
at it with a different lens.
482
00:12:53,540 --> 00:12:54,839
Mike: What about that?
483
00:12:54,941 --> 00:12:55,907
Christine: Clearly I
would have been wrong.
484
00:12:56,009 --> 00:12:56,775
Tony: Well, I know the
lens that they use, so.
485
00:12:56,877 --> 00:12:57,275
Christine: I know
you like their lens,
486
00:12:57,377 --> 00:12:59,043
yeah I know.
487
00:12:59,146 --> 00:12:59,744
Jersey jon: This french
gray is harley colored, dude.
488
00:12:59,846 --> 00:13:00,912
Mike: Here's
a case of it.
489
00:13:01,014 --> 00:13:02,647
Jersey jon: And this
could be from that period.
490
00:13:02,749 --> 00:13:04,716
Mike: Ugghh!
Ahh... You got it?
491
00:13:04,818 --> 00:13:05,517
It's heavy. It's going
to be heavy.
492
00:13:05,619 --> 00:13:06,818
Jersey jon:
Hee-yyeah...
493
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:08,319
Mike: Haha... I told you
it's heavy! [laughs]
494
00:13:08,421 --> 00:13:10,455
jersey jon: Yeah.
495
00:13:10,557 --> 00:13:11,356
Tony: What'd
you find?
496
00:13:11,458 --> 00:13:12,724
Jersey jon: Paint.
497
00:13:12,826 --> 00:13:13,892
Mike: [laughs]
jersey jon: Ah... Oil,
498
00:13:13,994 --> 00:13:17,796
let's see what else we
got here... This is cool.
499
00:13:17,898 --> 00:13:19,831
What I found really
interesting is that,
500
00:13:19,933 --> 00:13:23,067
this is a "high gloss
french gray enamel"
501
00:13:23,170 --> 00:13:25,003
from boston varnish company,
and it's all hand soldered.
502
00:13:25,105 --> 00:13:27,005
Jersey jon: Original paint from
a hardware store or
503
00:13:27,107 --> 00:13:30,108
probably an auto-paint store
or a coach maker store,
504
00:13:30,210 --> 00:13:32,610
but what's cool about it is
they're all from around 1910,
505
00:13:32,712 --> 00:13:34,779
maybe 1915, never
been opened.
506
00:13:34,881 --> 00:13:37,582
Tony: Paint... As
long as it doesn't hit
507
00:13:37,684 --> 00:13:38,883
the air it's
good forever.
508
00:13:38,985 --> 00:13:40,718
Jersey jon: It's french gray
enamel, the color.
509
00:13:40,821 --> 00:13:42,620
And that's the same
color they used
510
00:13:42,722 --> 00:13:44,155
in harley davidson
motorcycles.
511
00:13:44,257 --> 00:13:45,723
Jersey jon: Somebody comes to
me in my shop and they're like,
512
00:13:45,826 --> 00:13:48,426
"hey jon, I got 1910
or 1912 harley,
513
00:13:48,528 --> 00:13:49,761
and I want it restored."
514
00:13:49,863 --> 00:13:50,929
a lot of times we're
guessing on color.
515
00:13:51,031 --> 00:13:53,865
Here is an original paint
can with the paint in it,
516
00:13:53,967 --> 00:13:56,434
and now I know what

Jersey jon: So that's
what's really interesting,
519
00:13:58,905 --> 00:14:01,105
even though, you
know the can is like,
520
00:14:01,208 --> 00:14:04,275
decorative, but it also has
value to me in another sense.
521
00:14:04,377 --> 00:14:05,310
Tony: Good.
522
00:14:05,412 --> 00:14:06,911

a whole case of it here,

with all different colors

you're talking about.
525
00:14:08,815 --> 00:14:09,747
So these cans
have great graphics.
526
00:14:09,850 --> 00:14:12,050
I mean, look at
the graphics on it,
527
00:14:12,152 --> 00:14:13,885
very bright, very colorful,
got a little bit of pitting
528
00:14:13,987 --> 00:14:15,687
on the bottom, but it's
still really a nice can.
529
00:14:15,789 --> 00:14:18,089
Look at this penetrating
oil, I mean,
530
00:14:18,191 --> 00:14:20,158
that's going to look good on
anybody's shelf in their garage.
531
00:14:20,260 --> 00:14:21,159
Uh...
532
00:14:21,261 --> 00:14:22,861
Whiz polish is always
great, any whiz stuff is
533
00:14:22,963 --> 00:14:25,763
just unusual and it's-
it's very collectable.
534
00:14:25,866 --> 00:14:28,533
I'd go like 125
bucks on all the cans.

good for me.

even if
they're scary.
605

because I didn't learn

anything about world
war ii in school.

helped us defeat the japanese.

opposite, you know,

us beat the germans.

615

be able to go through this
616

and have a tactile
experience.
617

relate physically to something,
618

flag for a gold star mother.
623

Rob: For parades, maybe.
692
00:18:53,766 --> 00:18:54,332
Danielle: More of
an honor thing.
693
00:18:54,434 --> 00:18:54,899
Rob: Um-hm. Yeah.
694
00:18:55,001 --> 00:18:56,167
Danielle: Okay, okay.
695
00:18:56,269 --> 00:18:57,969
Danielle: For a military son,
you can only imagine were very
696
00:18:58,071 --> 00:19:00,671
proud of their fathers,
their fathers were heroes,
697
00:19:00,773 --> 00:19:02,707
and they wanted to
dress like them.
698
00:19:03,109 --> 00:19:04,876
Rob: The same type of wool,
the same type of buttons,
699
00:19:04,978 --> 00:19:07,545
it's made just the same
as dad's would have
700
00:19:07,647 --> 00:19:09,013
been kind of
thing, yeah.
701

Danielle: Imagine how
scratchy this would have been...
702
00:19:11,351 --> 00:19:12,250
Rob: Yeah.
703
00:19:12,352 --> 00:19:13,384
Danielle: ...To
wear in the trenches, and...
704
00:19:13,486 --> 00:19:14,552
Rob: In the middle of the,
right in the middle of the
705
00:19:14,654 --> 00:19:15,853
summer when
you're sweating.
706
00:19:15,955 --> 00:19:17,288
Robbie: This thing would
be amazing in the store,
707
00:19:17,390 --> 00:19:17,889
I mean it's...
708
00:19:17,991 --> 00:19:19,056
Danielle: You're right.
709
00:19:19,159 --> 00:19:20,791
Robbie: ...Literally, we
have so many kids that come in.

Rob: And world war I
is like 100 years...
711
00:19:22,028 --> 00:19:23,828
Robbie: Yeah, it's world
war I, it's 100 years old.
712
00:19:23,930 --> 00:19:25,863
Rob: World war I doesn't
come up very often.
713
00:19:25,965 --> 00:19:27,665
You see plenty of world war ii
child's uniforms
714
00:19:27,767 --> 00:19:29,834
but I've been
collecting awhile,
715
00:19:29,936 --> 00:19:31,802
I don't recall seeing
another world war I.
716
00:19:31,905 --> 00:19:32,837
Danielle: I- I don't
even know what to...
717
00:19:32,939 --> 00:19:35,573
What to price something
like this, really.
718
00:19:35,675 --> 00:19:36,874
Rob: With the
mannequin...
719
00:19:36,976 --> 00:19:38,376
Robbie: Yeah, you got
to have the mannequin.
720
00:19:38,478 --> 00:19:39,010
Rob: Maybe like...
721
00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:42,547
I was thinking
about 400 bucks.
722
00:19:42,649 --> 00:19:44,015
Robbie: With
the signals?
723
00:19:44,117 --> 00:19:46,083
Robbie: You can have the
signals if you want it, yeah.
724
00:19:46,186 --> 00:19:47,952
Danielle: At that time, there
was so much family pride in
725
00:19:48,054 --> 00:19:51,289
passing on the family
name, the family tradition,
726
00:19:51,391 --> 00:19:52,423
the family work.
727
00:19:52,525 --> 00:19:54,792
Which is exactly why I
want to bring it to the shop.
728
00:19:54,894 --> 00:19:56,994

great display piece.

department
store in boston.

00:20:25,858 --> 00:20:27,658
Tony: My father
worked there 32 years.
747
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:29,126
Tony: He worked
in the warehouse,
748
00:20:29,229 --> 00:20:31,963
all the stuff that came out of
displays and things they'd bring
749
00:20:32,065 --> 00:20:33,731
it over there and you
know, throw it in the dump.
750
00:20:33,833 --> 00:20:35,299
Well, my father
would bring it home.

752
00:20:36,936 --> 00:20:38,703
tony: He only had 2
sick days in 32 years.
753
00:20:38,805 --> 00:20:39,870
They called him
in on his day off,
754
00:20:39,973 --> 00:20:41,906
gave him a hamilton
watch and shook his hand.

Jersey jon: A
practice bomb?
768
00:20:57,857 --> 00:21:00,958
Tony: We used to
summer out at cape cod.
769
00:21:01,060 --> 00:21:03,661
And from that spot, you could
see this breakwater
770
00:21:03,763 --> 00:21:06,964
off of the mouth
of the bass river.
771
00:21:07,066 --> 00:21:10,701
During world war ii, they
used to use it as a target
772
00:21:10,803 --> 00:21:13,971
for the airplanes to
drop bombs on.
773
00:21:14,073 --> 00:21:14,939

them dropping these things.

come in, whoosh, boom!

Tony: Yeah.

00:21:18,444 --> 00:21:19,677
Tony: And I went out there
after the bombing and
777
00:21:19,779 --> 00:21:20,745
bring back what
we could salvage.

you get this dad,

where'd this
come from?

00:21:23,516 --> 00:21:24,982
Tony: I went out and
got it in my boat.

00:21:25,084 --> 00:21:26,651
Jersey jon: You got it
out, it was floating around?
782
00:21:26,753 --> 00:21:28,986
Tony: No, it was
in the deep water.
783
00:21:29,088 --> 00:21:30,721
Some of them I didn't know and I
would tie a rope on them
784
00:21:30,823 --> 00:21:33,291
and tow it 50 feet
behind the boat...
785
00:21:33,393 --> 00:21:34,992
Jersey jon: Why?
786
00:21:35,094 --> 00:21:36,560

if it was going to go off.

his life, he lived an
adventurous life,
790
00:21:40,900 --> 00:21:43,034
he was out getting bombs
out of the bottom,

about 100 bucks?

actually thinking more
797
00:21:52,679 --> 00:21:55,379
like 150 or
200, frankly.
798

I'll do 125,

00:21:58,885 --> 00:21:59,283

Here's the
headlights.
814
00:22:14,834 --> 00:22:17,568
Mike: The more expensive
cars have always
815
00:22:17,670 --> 00:22:18,602
been really
hard to find.
816
00:22:18,705 --> 00:22:19,837
Jersey jon: Let's
go this way.
817
00:22:19,939 --> 00:22:20,504
Mike: Because those are
the cars everybody
818
00:22:20,606 --> 00:22:21,839
snaps up and
they keep.
819
00:22:21,941 --> 00:22:25,009
The car is built to
look like a '34 ford.
820
00:22:25,111 --> 00:22:27,345
It's got the look, the
grille, the sweeping fenders,
821
00:22:27,447 --> 00:22:28,779
it's streamlined.
822
00:22:28,881 --> 00:22:30,214
Mike: Who restored
this car, my friend?
823
00:22:30,316 --> 00:22:30,781
Tony: Me.
824
00:22:30,883 --> 00:22:31,482
Mike: You restored it?
825
00:22:31,584 --> 00:22:32,983
Tony: 15 or 20 years ago.
826
00:22:33,086 --> 00:22:33,951
Mike: Yeah, there's the
lights, there's the lights.
827
00:22:34,053 --> 00:22:35,186
Christine: No, it was
way more than that.
828
00:22:35,288 --> 00:22:36,821
Tony: No.
829
00:22:36,923 --> 00:22:38,289
Christine: You restored it
when I was a kid,
830
00:22:38,391 --> 00:22:39,957
so 40 years ago.
831
00:22:40,059 --> 00:22:42,393
Mike: When tony restored
this car so many years ago,
832
00:22:42,495 --> 00:22:43,394
that was the trend.
833
00:22:43,496 --> 00:22:45,863
If anything was
scuffed, it has rust on it,
834
00:22:45,965 --> 00:22:48,933
the paint was fading,
they would restore it.
835
00:22:49,035 --> 00:22:50,868
Mike: So this design was on
the side and you re-
836
00:22:50,970 --> 00:22:51,836
tony: That design was
on there I copied it.
837
00:22:51,938 --> 00:22:54,438
Mike: In my eyes, you're
really stripping the
838
00:22:54,540 --> 00:22:55,873
history away from it.
839
00:22:55,975 --> 00:22:58,709
But that's all really
a personal preference.
840
00:22:58,811 --> 00:22:59,877
Mike: Do you have
the hood ornament?
841
00:22:59,979 --> 00:23:01,846
Tony: No, it never was
on it, I can remember.
842
00:23:01,948 --> 00:23:02,813
Mike: Looks like something
was mounted here.
843
00:23:02,915 --> 00:23:04,515
Tony: I don't know
what it could have been.
844
00:23:04,617 --> 00:23:05,816
Mike: Maybe a little horn.
845
00:23:05,918 --> 00:23:07,318
Jersey jon: These are
the original tires?
846
00:23:07,420 --> 00:23:08,185
Christine: Um-hm.
847
00:23:08,287 --> 00:23:08,586
Tony: Yeah, those
are original tires.
848
00:23:08,688 --> 00:23:09,687
Mike: Yeah.
849
00:23:09,789 --> 00:23:10,688
Jersey jon:
They're in good shape.
850
00:23:10,790 --> 00:23:11,355
Mike: And if you
notice too, jersey,
851
00:23:11,457 --> 00:23:12,823
they're pneumatic.
852
00:23:12,925 --> 00:23:13,758
Mike: The fact that it
has pneumatic tires,
853
00:23:13,860 --> 00:23:15,626
tires that hold air,
is really unusual.
854
00:23:15,728 --> 00:23:16,727
Mike: I think
it's brilliant.
855
00:23:16,829 --> 00:23:19,630
Tony: My father
bought that for me.
856
00:23:19,732 --> 00:23:20,264
Mike: What year
were you born?
857
00:23:20,366 --> 00:23:21,932
Tony: 1934.
858
00:23:22,034 --> 00:23:24,268
Mike: Okay, so '34, so
you had this in like 1938?
859
00:23:24,370 --> 00:23:26,036
Tony: Yeah.
860
00:23:26,139 --> 00:23:28,572
Mike: If it was original paint,
the car would command
861
00:23:28,674 --> 00:23:29,273
a lot more money...
But...
862
00:23:29,375 --> 00:23:30,608
Tony: Yeah.
863
00:23:30,710 --> 00:23:32,042
Jersey jon: It's
not that bad.
864
00:23:32,145 --> 00:23:33,210
Mike: ...But to be honest,
it doesn't take away that...
865
00:23:33,312 --> 00:23:34,979
Tony: But it looks a lot
better than the original paint.
866
00:23:35,081 --> 00:23:35,846
Mike: Yeah well here's,
here's the original paint.
867
00:23:35,948 --> 00:23:36,313
Tony: That's the
original paint there.
868
00:23:36,416 --> 00:23:37,982
Mike: Yeah, see.
869
00:23:38,084 --> 00:23:39,250
Mike: You can see that
the green was still bright,
870
00:23:39,352 --> 00:23:41,752
yeah it's scuffed and it's got
some scars and a little bit of
871
00:23:41,854 --> 00:23:43,421
rust, but man, I'm
just imagining this
872
00:23:43,523 --> 00:23:45,256
piece original paint.
873
00:23:45,358 --> 00:23:46,290
Mike: Um...
874
00:23:46,392 --> 00:23:47,158
I'd pay uh...
875
00:23:47,260 --> 00:23:53,597
♪♪
876
00:23:53,699 --> 00:23:55,266
I'd pay 1,200
bucks for it.
877
00:23:55,368 --> 00:23:56,133
Tony: Sold.
878
00:23:56,235 --> 00:23:58,002
Mike: [laughs]
thank you, my friend.
879
00:24:00,239 --> 00:24:02,606
♪♪
880
00:24:02,708 --> 00:24:05,843
mike: Ahh... Ooh
that's killer.
881
00:24:05,945 --> 00:24:07,344
Tony: That's an old
indian motor platform.
882
00:24:07,447 --> 00:24:08,913
Jersey jon: Ha!
883
00:24:09,015 --> 00:24:10,314
Mike: Oh my god, where'd
you get this at, buddy?
884
00:24:10,416 --> 00:24:11,315
Jersey jon: Wow.
885
00:24:11,417 --> 00:24:12,850
Let me in there.
886
00:24:12,952 --> 00:24:14,852
Tony: It originally
came with this propeller.
887
00:24:14,954 --> 00:24:16,454
Mike: They were using it
for some sort of power
888
00:24:16,556 --> 00:24:17,254
source with this on it?
889
00:24:17,356 --> 00:24:18,422
Tony: Yeah.
890
00:24:18,524 --> 00:24:19,623
Mike: Let me see this.
891
00:24:19,725 --> 00:24:20,891
Jersey jon: It's
a cool propeller.
892
00:24:20,993 --> 00:24:22,026
Jersey jon: This engine's
got a propeller with it.
893
00:24:22,128 --> 00:24:23,727
We see that quite often in
early motorcycling motors.
894
00:24:23,830 --> 00:24:24,962
Jersey jon: It's
small for an airplane.
895
00:24:25,064 --> 00:24:26,630
Mike: I mean, would it-
would it have been on like
896
00:24:26,732 --> 00:24:27,431
the back of a
flat-bottom boat?
897
00:24:27,533 --> 00:24:28,899
Tony: Small air boat.
898
00:24:29,001 --> 00:24:29,800
Mike: Yeah, that's what
I'm thinking, like yeah.
899
00:24:29,902 --> 00:24:30,968
Jersey jon: Yeah,
maybe an air boat, yeah.
900
00:24:31,070 --> 00:24:33,137
Jersey jon: This obviously
was used for probably not
901
00:24:33,239 --> 00:24:35,506
an airplane, but an air boat,
'cause it's a lightweight motor,
902
00:24:35,608 --> 00:24:37,608
there's a
crossover there.
903
00:24:37,710 --> 00:24:38,776
Mike: So where'd
you get this at?
904
00:24:38,878 --> 00:24:41,846
Tony: My father
brought it home in 1953,
905
00:24:41,948 --> 00:24:44,849
right after indian
motorcycle went bankrupt.
906
00:24:44,951 --> 00:24:45,382
Mike: That's exactly
right, that's the year
907
00:24:45,485 --> 00:24:46,984
they went bankrupt.
908
00:24:47,086 --> 00:24:48,853
Christine: It was really nice
to have my dad talk to
909
00:24:48,955 --> 00:24:51,789
people who actually knew
what he's talking about.
910
00:24:51,891 --> 00:24:53,457
Mike: So did you put
the flywheel on it?
911
00:24:53,559 --> 00:24:55,259
Tony: I put the v-belt...
912
00:24:55,361 --> 00:24:55,759
Mike: Okay.
913
00:24:55,862 --> 00:24:56,861
Tony: ...On there.
914
00:24:56,963 --> 00:24:57,895
Christine: They- they
speak the same language.
915
00:24:57,997 --> 00:24:59,864
Mike: It's a '22, jersey,
first year of the chief.
916
00:24:59,966 --> 00:25:01,432
Jersey jon: Yeah, this
is not the 7-horsepower,
917
00:25:01,534 --> 00:25:02,700
it's the 8-horsepower.
918
00:25:02,802 --> 00:25:03,934
Mike: Is that the
right mag, jersey?
919
00:25:04,036 --> 00:25:05,836
Jersey jon: Yeah, that's the
splitdorf mag, man.
920
00:25:05,938 --> 00:25:09,607
Mike: 1922 8-horse,
no chips in the fins,
921
00:25:09,709 --> 00:25:11,675
original mag,
original carb.
922
00:25:11,777 --> 00:25:12,843
Mike: Check this
out, look at this,
923
00:25:12,945 --> 00:25:14,645
look at the oil tank
they made with the pump.
924
00:25:14,747 --> 00:25:15,779
This is off an
earlier indian.
925
00:25:15,882 --> 00:25:17,948
Mike: The patina of
the engine itself,
926
00:25:18,050 --> 00:25:20,651
the way it's cradled in the
bracket that held it
927
00:25:20,753 --> 00:25:23,687
for so many years,
it's so cool.
928
00:25:23,789 --> 00:25:24,989
Jersey jon: Pretty
nice shape, mike,
929
00:25:25,091 --> 00:25:26,857
I mean it- I mean it- look
at the bottom of the case,
930
00:25:26,959 --> 00:25:27,391
it's just nice and that
hasn't been sitting
931
00:25:27,493 --> 00:25:28,893
in water or nothing.
932
00:25:28,995 --> 00:25:29,760
Mike: Oh yeah, the fins
are really nice on it.
933
00:25:29,862 --> 00:25:31,362
Jersey jon: The
motor... Has been...
934
00:25:31,464 --> 00:25:33,130
Modified slightly.
935
00:25:33,232 --> 00:25:34,999
They had to get a propeller on
the output shaft of the motor.
936
00:25:35,101 --> 00:25:36,634
Jersey jon: You didn't
cut the shaft or nothing, right?
937
00:25:36,736 --> 00:25:38,002
Tony: No I didn't
cut anything.
938
00:25:38,104 --> 00:25:39,703
Jersey jon: Whoever did
it, didn't mar the cases up,
939
00:25:39,805 --> 00:25:41,105
they didn't like
ruin the crankshaft,
940
00:25:41,207 --> 00:25:43,908
it looks like they just kind
of bolted something on there.
941
00:25:44,010 --> 00:25:45,042
Mike: Alright, so we've
got the right magneto,
942
00:25:45,144 --> 00:25:47,845
we've got the right carb,
rear year because it's 1922,
943
00:25:47,947 --> 00:25:50,915
that's the first year
of the indian chief.
944
00:25:51,017 --> 00:25:51,682
Jersey jon: There's still
some red paint in the
945
00:25:51,784 --> 00:25:52,516
very bottom of
it, indian red.
946
00:25:52,618 --> 00:25:53,317
Mike: From the engine cases.
947
00:25:53,419 --> 00:25:55,019
Jersey jon: Yeah.
948
00:25:55,121 --> 00:25:55,986
Jersey jon: I think it's going
to be a pretty easy job
949
00:25:56,088 --> 00:25:58,022
to like undo whatever
that machinist did,
950
00:25:58,124 --> 00:26:01,725
and have a really good
valid indian motorcycle engine.
951
00:26:01,827 --> 00:26:03,527
Mike: Is this
something you'd sell?
952
00:26:03,629 --> 00:26:04,628
Tony: I'm thinking about it.
953
00:26:04,730 --> 00:26:06,263
Mike: You're
thinking about it?
954
00:26:06,365 --> 00:26:07,331
Tony: Yeah.
955
00:26:07,433 --> 00:26:09,433
Mike: How long have you
been thinking about it?
956
00:26:09,535 --> 00:26:11,569
Tony: Oh... 40 years.
957
00:26:11,671 --> 00:26:14,838
Mike: Yeah?
[group laughing]
958
00:26:14,941 --> 00:26:16,574
tony: 40 years, so just
give me a few more
959
00:26:16,676 --> 00:26:18,275
minutes to
think about it.
960
00:26:18,377 --> 00:26:19,243
Mike: Okay.
961
00:26:19,345 --> 00:26:20,911
Jersey jon: Yeah
absolutely, absolutely. Yep.
962
00:26:21,013 --> 00:26:22,580
I saw some stuff back
here I wanted to look at,
963
00:26:22,682 --> 00:26:23,914
some small
hardware you got.
964
00:26:24,016 --> 00:26:26,150
Mike: Dig in, jersey,
look at all this stuff!
965
00:26:26,252 --> 00:26:27,451
Jersey jon: I know, I'm waiting
for you to get out of my way.
966
00:26:27,553 --> 00:26:29,553
Jersey jon: I turned a corner
and he's got this workshop area
967
00:26:29,655 --> 00:26:30,421
in there, and it's really tight.
968
00:26:30,523 --> 00:26:31,555
Tony: It's all for sale.
969
00:26:31,657 --> 00:26:32,856
Jersey jon:
Alright, good.
970
00:26:32,959 --> 00:26:33,857
Jersey jon: Old
hardware, that's like wow...
971
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:35,893
Jersey jon: You got
like, an old barometer.
972
00:26:35,995 --> 00:26:36,760
Jersey jon: That's stuff
I use in my restorations.
973
00:26:36,862 --> 00:26:38,295
Jersey jon: Bunch
of gauges and stuff,
974
00:26:38,397 --> 00:26:39,930
I love gauges.
975
00:26:40,032 --> 00:26:41,832
Like all this, I'm
interested in this whole tray,
976
00:26:41,934 --> 00:26:44,868
steam gauges, pressure
gauges, some car...
977
00:26:44,971 --> 00:26:45,769
Jersey jon: I'm just
like, this is like crazy.
978
00:26:45,871 --> 00:26:47,838
Jersey jon: This
tray... Let's keep going.
979
00:26:47,940 --> 00:26:49,907
Jersey jon: It's like
a hardware bonanza.
980
00:26:50,009 --> 00:26:50,574
Jersey jon: I got to get
this stuff out of here.
981
00:26:50,676 --> 00:26:51,609
What do you
got up here?
982
00:26:51,711 --> 00:26:53,010
Yep, yep, this
one here uh...
983
00:26:54,714 --> 00:26:56,480
Books, what are
these things?
984
00:26:56,882 --> 00:26:57,448
Jersey jon: Oh yeah,
they're beautiful.
985
00:26:57,550 --> 00:26:58,782
We'll figure this out.
986
00:26:58,884 --> 00:27:00,351
Let me see what
this is, 1907- ooh...
987
00:27:00,453 --> 00:27:01,852
Cool I want those.
988
00:27:01,954 --> 00:27:04,254
Mechanical movements,
principles of mechanism,
989
00:27:04,357 --> 00:27:05,756
that's neat.
990
00:27:05,858 --> 00:27:07,157
Yeah, I'm interested
in those for sure.
991
00:27:07,259 --> 00:27:08,025
Wow...
992
00:27:08,527 --> 00:27:09,760
Jersey jon: It's good.
993
00:27:09,862 --> 00:27:10,828
Jersey jon: Let's go
through this pile,
994
00:27:10,930 --> 00:27:12,930
I'm getting in over my
head here, I think.
995
00:27:13,032 --> 00:27:13,931
We have the books here,
we got the t-square book,
996
00:27:14,033 --> 00:27:16,400
motor efficiency and
these machine shop books,
997
00:27:16,502 --> 00:27:17,234
I love these things.
998
00:27:17,336 --> 00:27:19,136
Jersey jon: I
have a huge library.
999
00:27:19,238 --> 00:27:21,572
I've learned from books, they
inspired me when I was a kid,
1000
00:27:21,674 --> 00:27:23,140
to do what I'm
doing today.
1001
00:27:23,242 --> 00:27:26,143
When I'm stuck on a problem, I
can go back to an old industrial
1002
00:27:26,245 --> 00:27:28,946
book and you just can't get that
information from the internet.
1003
00:27:29,048 --> 00:27:31,281
Jersey jon: I'd go $50
for that pile right there.
1004
00:27:31,384 --> 00:27:32,549
Tony: Okay.
1005
00:27:32,652 --> 00:27:33,817
Jersey jon:
Okay? We have...
1006
00:27:33,919 --> 00:27:36,587
These cool gauges, you
know, the barometer
1007
00:27:36,689 --> 00:27:38,622
and the like,
steam gauges.
1008
00:27:38,724 --> 00:27:40,557
There's some cool
ones in there,
1009
00:27:40,660 --> 00:27:42,426
some common
ones. I'd do 75.
1010
00:27:42,528 --> 00:27:43,594
Tony: That's alright.
1011
00:27:43,696 --> 00:27:44,261
Jersey jon:
You're alright?
1012
00:27:44,363 --> 00:27:45,696
Tony: Yeah.
1013
00:27:45,798 --> 00:27:46,897
Jersey jon:
Alright, so we got this,
1014
00:27:46,999 --> 00:27:48,999
this more bicycle stuff,
we got the bicycle chain,
1015
00:27:49,101 --> 00:27:53,270
the sprockets in here, I
would do $30 for this pile here.
1016
00:27:53,372 --> 00:27:54,672
Tony: Okay.
1017
00:27:54,774 --> 00:27:56,540
Jersey jon: Okay.
So that's that.
1018
00:27:56,942 --> 00:28:00,678
And... Switches, dash
lights for model a,
1019
00:28:00,780 --> 00:28:02,579
model t, guys are
restoring cars...
1020
00:28:02,682 --> 00:28:05,916
A lot of '20s,
'30s stuff.
1021
00:28:06,018 --> 00:28:06,717
They need a switch, how
are you going to make
1022
00:28:06,819 --> 00:28:08,852
a switch like
that for your car?
1023
00:28:08,954 --> 00:28:09,853
These things you don't
find them everywhere.
1024
00:28:09,955 --> 00:28:11,388
So if I can't use this stuff,
somebody's going
1025
00:28:11,490 --> 00:28:12,856
to buy this from me.
1026
00:28:12,958 --> 00:28:14,425
Jersey jon: 50 bucks
for that box of switches.
1027
00:28:14,527 --> 00:28:15,693

00:37:58,243 --> 00:37:59,609
So when you're helping your
dad walk around and everything,
1366
00:37:59,711 --> 00:38:01,878
it almost, to be
honest with you,
1367
00:38:01,980 --> 00:38:04,347
brings kind of a tear
to my eye, because um...
1368
00:38:04,449 --> 00:38:05,315
Jersey jon: Yeah.
1369
00:38:05,417 --> 00:38:06,883
Christine: Yeah.
1370
00:38:06,985 --> 00:38:07,350
Mike: 'cause that's what
it's all about, you know.
1371
00:38:07,452 --> 00:38:08,685
Christine: It is.
1372
00:38:08,787 --> 00:38:09,753
Mike: He took care
of you like that,
1373
00:38:09,855 --> 00:38:10,654
and now you're
doing the same for him.
1374
00:38:10,756 --> 00:38:11,888
Jersey jon: Yeah,
you're awesome.
1375
00:38:11,990 --> 00:38:12,455
Mike: When I'm watching
those two together...
1376
00:38:12,557 --> 00:38:13,890
Christine: There you go.
1377
00:38:13,992 --> 00:38:15,258
Mike: It's hard not to
realize that one day...
1378
00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:16,393
Tony: Ugh...
1379
00:38:16,495 --> 00:38:17,327
Christine: Alright?
1380
00:38:17,429 --> 00:38:19,095
Mike: That's going
to be me and charlie.
1381
00:38:19,197 --> 00:38:20,363
Christine: One of the things
that I think has been probably
1382
00:38:20,465 --> 00:38:22,165
the most impactful thus far is
that my dad has a lot of value
1383
00:38:22,267 --> 00:38:25,602
that he puts on all of his- his
stuff that he collects, right?
1384
00:38:25,704 --> 00:38:26,836
Jersey jon: Um
-hm. Oh yeah.
1385
00:38:26,938 --> 00:38:28,972
Christine: And having you
guys come here and
1386
00:38:29,074 --> 00:38:30,340
talk to him about like what
something is worth...
1387
00:38:30,442 --> 00:38:31,675
Jersey jon: Sure.
1388
00:38:31,777 --> 00:38:32,542
Christine: ...Or
what value it has,
1389
00:38:32,644 --> 00:38:34,177
it gives him
validation.
1390
00:38:34,279 --> 00:38:37,047
Christine: My dad was trying to
communicate with us its worth
1391
00:38:37,149 --> 00:38:39,616
and its value, and we just
either didn't understand it
1392
00:38:39,718 --> 00:38:41,785
or maybe didn't
believe him...
1393
00:38:41,887 --> 00:38:42,619
Mike: When I was talking
about that bicycle
1394
00:38:42,721 --> 00:38:43,286
when I pulled it
out of there...
1395
00:38:43,388 --> 00:38:44,854
Christine: Yeah.
1396
00:38:44,956 --> 00:38:45,455
Mike: ...I can't believe
he had that when he was,
1397
00:38:45,557 --> 00:38:46,323
he was like 12, you know.
1398
00:38:46,425 --> 00:38:47,424
Jersey jon: Yeah.
1399
00:38:47,526 --> 00:38:48,358
Wow, he still has it.
1400
00:38:48,460 --> 00:38:49,426
Christine: Which is
crazy, and I didn't
1401
00:38:49,528 --> 00:38:50,260
even know that, and...
1402
00:38:50,362 --> 00:38:51,428
Christine: I would
have been like,
1403
00:38:51,530 --> 00:38:52,862
oh this is a junky old
bike, where did this come from?
1404
00:38:52,964 --> 00:38:53,296
And h never told me
that that was his bike,
1405
00:38:53,398 --> 00:38:54,931
I had no idea.
1406
00:38:55,033 --> 00:38:55,532
Christine: And the stories
that he's been telling
1407
00:38:55,634 --> 00:38:56,333
you guys today, like...
1408
00:38:56,435 --> 00:38:57,367
Jersey jon: Yeah.
1409
00:38:57,469 --> 00:38:58,335
Christine: I've never
even heard these stories.
1410
00:38:58,437 --> 00:38:59,102
Jersey jon: Yeah.
1411
00:38:59,204 --> 00:39:00,003
Christine: That...
Bomb thing,
1412
00:39:00,105 --> 00:39:01,771
I didn't even
know that that existed,
1413
00:39:01,873 --> 00:39:03,273
nor did I know that
my dad found that.
1414
00:39:03,375 --> 00:39:04,107
Mike: Yeah.
1415
00:39:04,209 --> 00:39:04,908
Christine: It's
pretty cool, yeah,
1416
00:39:05,010 --> 00:39:06,276
this has been
amazing, actually.
1417
00:39:06,378 --> 00:39:08,278
Mike: Tony.
1418
00:39:08,380 --> 00:39:09,779
Tony: Yeah.
1419
00:39:09,881 --> 00:39:13,783
Mike: Here we are
again, by the engine.
1420
00:39:13,885 --> 00:39:14,918
Christine: Yeah, so
my dad and I talked,
1421
00:39:15,020 --> 00:39:18,555
and he's willing to, to
listen to see what kind
1422
00:39:18,657 --> 00:39:20,590
of offer you
guys can give.
1423
00:39:20,692 --> 00:39:22,125
Mike: Well, we
appreciate that.
1424
00:39:22,227 --> 00:39:25,862
I love the engine and jersey
jon and I kind of been knocking
1425
00:39:25,964 --> 00:39:27,297
around a little bit,
you know, as far as like,
1426
00:39:27,399 --> 00:39:28,932
value as well.
1427
00:39:29,034 --> 00:39:32,268
The- the engine is- is,
usually you find engines.
1428
00:39:32,371 --> 00:39:34,070
Tony: Yeah.
1429
00:39:34,172 --> 00:39:34,838
Jersey jon: You find motors
before you find the rest of
1430
00:39:34,940 --> 00:39:36,072
the bike, the
rest of the bike.
1431
00:39:36,174 --> 00:39:37,707
Mike: Yeah, because- yeah
because people are using it for
1432
00:39:37,809 --> 00:39:38,541
different types
of uses, you know,
1433
00:39:38,643 --> 00:39:39,809
it becomes a
power plant.
1434
00:39:39,911 --> 00:39:40,910
Mike: Anybody that
looks at this engine,
1435
00:39:41,012 --> 00:39:42,345
they're going to look at
it from a perspective of,
1436
00:39:42,447 --> 00:39:43,713
it's a novelty.
1437
00:39:43,815 --> 00:39:44,381
What did it run,
that's interesting,
1438
00:39:44,483 --> 00:39:45,348
oh it's an indian?
1439
00:39:45,450 --> 00:39:46,716
Oh that's cool.
1440
00:39:46,818 --> 00:39:47,384
Mike: It's kind of
a trophy this way,
1441
00:39:47,486 --> 00:39:48,418
sitting this way...
1442
00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:49,886
Jersey jon:
Yeah.
1443
00:39:49,988 --> 00:39:50,720
Mike: ...But it deserves to
be back on a bike.
1444
00:39:50,822 --> 00:39:52,722
Tony: It would be
happy to go there.
1445
00:39:52,824 --> 00:39:53,323
Mike: Oh my gosh,
are you kidding me,
1446
00:39:53,425 --> 00:39:54,391
incredibly happy.
1447
00:39:54,493 --> 00:39:56,292
Mike: I'm looking at it,
and jersey's looking at it
1448
00:39:56,395 --> 00:39:57,794
as a motorcycle.
1449
00:39:57,896 --> 00:39:59,529
So when we're talking
to him, we want to
1450
00:39:59,631 --> 00:40:00,830
share our
passion with him.
1451
00:40:00,932 --> 00:40:03,400
Mike: We would, we
would get this running.
1452
00:40:03,502 --> 00:40:04,534
Jersey jon: Oh yeah.
1453
00:40:04,636 --> 00:40:05,535
Mike: You know, jersey's
built motorcycles out of less.
1454
00:40:05,637 --> 00:40:07,904
Mike: I'd pay 2,200 for it.
1455
00:40:08,006 --> 00:40:11,274
Tony: I thought it
would be worth at least 25.
1456
00:40:11,376 --> 00:40:12,709
Mike: Um...
1457
00:40:12,811 --> 00:40:13,610
I don't think
you're that far off.
1458
00:40:13,712 --> 00:40:14,778
The problem with
it is, you know,
1459
00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:17,881
finding the rest of
it, the '22 chief.
1460
00:40:17,983 --> 00:40:19,783
Mike: Find the frame,
find the sheet metal,
1461
00:40:19,885 --> 00:40:20,950
find the front end,
find the gas tank.
1462
00:40:21,052 --> 00:40:22,318
Mike: Not to say that
this stuff's not out there.
1463
00:40:22,421 --> 00:40:23,820
Jersey jon: Yeah.
1464
00:40:23,922 --> 00:40:24,621
It's just hard to find
the chassis anymore,
1465
00:40:24,723 --> 00:40:25,989
the chassis went
to the scrapyard.
1466
00:40:26,091 --> 00:40:27,991
Mike: Jersey's the magic man,
he's the guy that you
1467
00:40:28,093 --> 00:40:31,394
go to when all else fails and
you can't find the part,
1468
00:40:31,496 --> 00:40:33,029
he makes it for you.
1469
00:40:33,131 --> 00:40:35,465
You know, he dreams big and
being around him all these
1470
00:40:35,567 --> 00:40:36,833
years, it's contagious.
1471
00:40:36,935 --> 00:40:40,603
Mike: You guys have
had this for 67 years.
1472
00:40:40,705 --> 00:40:41,771
I- I'd like to
be the next guy.
1473
00:40:41,873 --> 00:40:43,106
Mike: When I'm
looking at this engine,
1474
00:40:43,208 --> 00:40:46,443
I'm going, man, it'd be sure
cool to have a first year chief,
1475
00:40:46,545 --> 00:40:48,211
this is the start of it.
1476
00:40:48,313 --> 00:40:49,479
Tony: 23.
1477
00:40:49,581 --> 00:40:51,314
Jersey jon: Yeah, yeah.
1478
00:40:51,416 --> 00:40:51,881
Mike: Alright.
1479
00:40:51,983 --> 00:40:52,949
Thank you, my friend.
1480
00:40:53,051 --> 00:40:55,685
Mike: I'm so glad that he
decided to sell it to us,
1481
00:40:55,787 --> 00:40:58,588
because we're
just the right guys.
1482
00:40:58,690 --> 00:40:59,255
Mike: Eh jersey,
you got that?
1483
00:40:59,357 --> 00:41:00,390
Tony: Okay.
1484
00:41:00,492 --> 00:41:01,825
Jersey jon: Yeah...
1485
00:41:01,927 --> 00:41:02,525
Mike: This thing ain't
rolling, I got to...
1486
00:41:02,627 --> 00:41:03,259
Jersey jon:
Bombs away.
1487
00:41:03,361 --> 00:41:04,661
Mike: Urgh!
1488
00:41:04,763 --> 00:41:07,096
Mike: Tony and
christine's story,
1489
00:41:07,199 --> 00:41:10,600
their relationship, their love
and respect for each other,
1490
00:41:10,702 --> 00:41:12,735
really resonated
with me today.
1491
00:41:12,838 --> 00:41:15,338
It reminded me so
much of my daughter,
1492
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:16,372
charlie and me.
1493
00:41:16,475 --> 00:41:17,407
Mike: There we go.
1494
00:41:17,509 --> 00:41:18,575
Christine: Alright.
1495
00:41:18,677 --> 00:41:20,009
Mike: Moving on down the road.
1496
00:41:20,111 --> 00:41:23,880
Mike: I think it's really
evident that I need to share
1497
00:41:23,982 --> 00:41:27,817
more stories now with
charlie, instead of...
1498
00:41:27,919 --> 00:41:30,553
Her finding out so
much about me later on.
1499
00:41:30,655 --> 00:41:32,689
Mike: I am
beyond excited...
1500
00:41:32,791 --> 00:41:33,957
Christine: [laughs]
tony: Oh yeah?
1501
00:41:34,059 --> 00:41:37,327
Mike: ...For everything that
you allowed us to buy.
1502
00:41:37,429 --> 00:41:39,095
Jersey jon: Yeah.
1503
00:41:39,197 --> 00:41:40,096
Mike: Thank you for sharing
your family's history with us.
1504
00:41:40,198 --> 00:41:40,964
Tony: Well, I'm
excited that you did buy it.
1505
00:41:41,066 --> 00:41:41,965
Mike: Oh my gosh,
are you kidding me?
1506
00:41:42,067 --> 00:41:43,900
Tony: Listening to my
wife and my daughter,
1507
00:41:44,002 --> 00:41:45,301
you know, get rid of
that stuff, get rid of it,
1508
00:41:45,403 --> 00:41:46,436
get rid of it.
1509
00:41:46,538 --> 00:41:47,837
Mike: Oh my gosh, hey.
1510
00:41:47,939 --> 00:41:48,438
Tony: I say, I know
there's people out there
1511
00:41:48,540 --> 00:41:49,973
that want this stuff.
1512
00:41:50,075 --> 00:41:51,341
So he can come back here
once a week if he wants to,
1513
00:41:51,443 --> 00:41:52,909
and go picking.
1514
00:41:53,011 --> 00:41:54,644
Mike: Well jersey jon,
he's just down in jersey.
1515
00:41:54,746 --> 00:41:55,278
Jersey jon: Yeah,
we'll come up.
1516
00:41:55,380 --> 00:41:57,180
Tony: Yeah.
1517
00:41:57,282 --> 00:41:58,147
Mike: You know, he'll come up
looking for more of your tools.
1518
00:41:58,250 --> 00:42:00,617
Christine: I... Feel like I
heard more and
1519
00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:01,818
learned more
about my dad today
1520
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:03,620
than I have probably
in the last 40 years.
1521
00:42:03,722 --> 00:42:05,788
Mike: I'll see
you guys later!
1522
00:42:05,891 --> 00:42:06,322
Jersey jon: Alright,
I'll see you later.
1523
00:42:06,424 --> 00:42:07,223
Christine: Bye.
1524
00:42:07,325 --> 00:42:08,892
Christine: It's
amazing how much more,
1525
00:42:08,994 --> 00:42:09,792
so I think that that's really
neat, you know.
1526
00:42:09,895 --> 00:42:11,561
Jersey jon: Yeah,
see ya down the road!
1527
00:42:11,663 --> 00:42:12,262
Tony: Bye.
Christine: Bye.
1528
00:42:12,364 --> 00:42:13,997
[honks horn]
