1
00:00:04,205 --> 00:00:06,772
There I was, driving along,
driving along,
having a great time.
2
00:00:06,774 --> 00:00:08,941
[exclaims] Whoa!
3
00:00:08,943 --> 00:00:10,943
-Do you see the Bald Eagle
fly overhead?
-No.
4
00:00:10,945 --> 00:00:11,810
Bro, that's a sign.
5
00:00:12,546 --> 00:00:14,113
All right. We're in the van!
6
00:00:14,115 --> 00:00:16,048
It's a Delica,
but thanks for asking.
7
00:00:18,252 --> 00:00:19,318
Got fire.
8
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:20,686
Definitely on fire.
9
00:00:20,688 --> 00:00:22,254
[man] I need more water.
10
00:00:22,289 --> 00:00:25,057
[man 1] If we take the seat
out, we might be okay.
11
00:00:25,126 --> 00:00:26,492
[man] The seat's
still on fire.
12
00:00:27,595 --> 00:00:29,695
Oh, my gosh.
13
00:00:29,697 --> 00:00:32,231
Ah! This is our van!
14
00:00:32,299 --> 00:00:35,100
-I'm way pissed, man.
-This sucks!
15
00:00:36,203 --> 00:00:38,037
[siren blaring]
16
00:00:47,715 --> 00:00:49,782
I'm taking you to
an exotic place today.
17
00:00:49,784 --> 00:00:52,785
Have you ever been to Mantua?
18
00:00:52,787 --> 00:00:55,287
-Manaway? Yeah.
-[man] Yeah.
19
00:00:55,289 --> 00:00:57,389
-Anyway, we're meeting a guy
up there.
-Okay.
20
00:00:57,391 --> 00:00:59,491
-For?
-He's got this special
package for me.
21
00:00:59,493 --> 00:01:03,495
We've been working double time
on finding and fixing iconic
diesels for our auction.
22
00:01:03,497 --> 00:01:07,800
Heavy D has added some of our
Diesel Brother classic buils
to the auction list.
23
00:01:07,802 --> 00:01:10,302
Why not take some of these
vehicles that we've already
24
00:01:10,304 --> 00:01:11,804
put so much blood,
sweat and tears into,
25
00:01:11,806 --> 00:01:14,273
that the world knows so well.
26
00:01:14,275 --> 00:01:16,108
Let's get 'em ready
for the auction and sell 'em.
27
00:01:16,110 --> 00:01:20,746
But we're still a long ways
away from filling up all
the slots on our auction.
28
00:01:20,814 --> 00:01:24,349
So, I took it upon myself
to go out
29
00:01:24,418 --> 00:01:27,252
and find some new
diesel blood.
30
00:01:27,288 --> 00:01:30,089
Think before I met my wife,
what was I doing?
31
00:01:30,091 --> 00:01:33,258
-You were living in a trailer.
-A school bus.
32
00:01:33,294 --> 00:01:35,327
-School bus.
-Yeah.
33
00:01:35,429 --> 00:01:37,629
-Being a vagabond, right?
-[man 1] And... Yes.
34
00:01:39,500 --> 00:01:42,134
Now, have you noticed that
in the world today,
35
00:01:42,202 --> 00:01:44,536
-people want to be vagabonds?
-Yeah.
36
00:01:44,638 --> 00:01:48,107
We're trying to drum up
as much interest from
as many people as possible
37
00:01:48,109 --> 00:01:49,374
for this auction,
38
00:01:49,376 --> 00:01:52,244
by building all sorts of
off the wall, unique,
39
00:01:52,346 --> 00:01:54,012
different kinds of diesels.
40
00:01:54,014 --> 00:01:55,781
That's why we're on our way
41
00:01:55,783 --> 00:01:59,384
to check out this gem of a van
that I think is gonna be
perfect for the auction.
42
00:01:59,386 --> 00:02:00,953
I am so excited
to see this van.
43
00:02:01,021 --> 00:02:02,921
-Me too. I'm excited now.
-In all of its glory.
44
00:02:02,923 --> 00:02:05,958
[exclaims] Oh! Look it,
there it is!
45
00:02:09,330 --> 00:02:12,231
-Muscle, Diesel Dave,
what's up, guys?
-What's up, man?
46
00:02:12,299 --> 00:02:14,266
That's a beautiful Delica,
my friend.
47
00:02:14,268 --> 00:02:15,601
[Muscle] This is unreal.
48
00:02:15,603 --> 00:02:19,538
America, feast your eyes
on the Mitsubishi Delica.
49
00:02:19,607 --> 00:02:22,074
"Delica" stands for
"delivery car".
50
00:02:22,076 --> 00:02:26,145
This is the ultimate
4-wheel drive.
51
00:02:26,213 --> 00:02:30,015
Diesel, go anywhere,
do anything off-road vehicle
52
00:02:30,017 --> 00:02:33,852
People used to think that
living in a van down
by the river was a bad thing.
53
00:02:33,888 --> 00:02:36,455
But nowadays,
it's all over Instagram.
54
00:02:36,523 --> 00:02:38,323
Hashtag vanlife.
55
00:02:38,392 --> 00:02:41,193
A community of people
both young and old,
56
00:02:41,195 --> 00:02:45,197
of people that wanna ditch
the 9 to 5 and go out
for an adventure.
57
00:02:45,199 --> 00:02:48,100
People pay big money
for these vans
58
00:02:48,102 --> 00:02:50,836
and I think it's a perfect
opportunity for us to
tap into that market
59
00:02:50,938 --> 00:02:54,106
and offer all the people
at the auction, a taste of
the van life.
60
00:02:54,108 --> 00:02:56,508
-Yeah, tap that market.
-Diesel-fied.
61
00:02:56,510 --> 00:02:58,443
Number one, coolest thing
about this.
62
00:03:00,114 --> 00:03:02,548
-Right hand drive.
-[Muscle and Dave exclaim]
Whoa!
63
00:03:03,117 --> 00:03:04,483
Hop in. Get in there.
64
00:03:04,485 --> 00:03:05,717
Let me see how you look.
65
00:03:07,655 --> 00:03:10,389
-4-wheel drive.
-Cassette player!
66
00:03:10,391 --> 00:03:12,691
And a cassette player?
Wait, what year is it?
67
00:03:12,693 --> 00:03:15,494
-It's a 1989.
-1989.
68
00:03:15,496 --> 00:03:17,796
-How does it feel up there
in the driver's seat?
-Feels great.
69
00:03:17,798 --> 00:03:20,299
-[Dave] Where is the motor?
-[Mark] All right, you gotta
see this.
70
00:03:22,303 --> 00:03:26,305
So, under here,
we got the 2.5 liter
turbo diesel motor.
71
00:03:26,307 --> 00:03:28,540
-[Dave exclaims] Oh!
-Turbo diesel.
72
00:03:28,609 --> 00:03:30,609
[Dave] Under
the driver's seat?
73
00:03:30,611 --> 00:03:33,245
-Look at that.
-[Mark] It is literally
in the middle...
74
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,181
-...of the vehicle.
-[Dave] That is awesome.
75
00:03:36,183 --> 00:03:39,384
-Is everything
mechanically sound?
-[Mark] Everything runs great.
76
00:03:39,386 --> 00:03:41,653
-[Muscle] Mark,
can we drive it?
-Come, give it a shot.
77
00:03:41,689 --> 00:03:44,489
-Take it for a spin.
-[Dave] Yes, sir.
78
00:03:44,491 --> 00:03:47,159
-All right, just remember,
you break it, you buy it.
-Got it.
79
00:03:47,227 --> 00:03:48,293
Do you know what you're doing?
80
00:03:48,295 --> 00:03:50,028
I'm gonna put it in the D
for diesel.
81
00:03:53,601 --> 00:03:56,168
Whoa. It turns on a dime!
82
00:03:56,170 --> 00:03:58,503
Gah! This is incredible.
83
00:03:58,505 --> 00:04:01,139
-[Muscle] This is incredible.
-Let's get to top speed.
Ready?
84
00:04:03,944 --> 00:04:05,143
It's pretty front heavy.
85
00:04:06,013 --> 00:04:07,279
Especially with us in.
86
00:04:07,281 --> 00:04:10,148
I mean, your motor and trans
are right there.
87
00:04:10,250 --> 00:04:13,819
The fan is like, one inch
from cutting the back
of your hamstring.
88
00:04:16,690 --> 00:04:18,624
-[honks]
-[Dave laughs]
89
00:04:19,193 --> 00:04:21,093
This is a real gem, Mark.
90
00:04:21,095 --> 00:04:23,328
I love it. You got it listed
for 10,500.
91
00:04:23,430 --> 00:04:25,931
-10,500.
-What about 8,5?
92
00:04:25,933 --> 00:04:28,333
-Could you come up a little?
-How does nine sound?
93
00:04:29,336 --> 00:04:30,469
All right. I could do nine.
94
00:04:30,471 --> 00:04:32,203
-Yes!
-Nine it is!
95
00:04:32,205 --> 00:04:35,807
I am so stoked that we were
able to snag this rad van for
such a stellar price.
96
00:04:35,809 --> 00:04:38,944
And now I'm ready to turn it
into the baddest
97
00:04:39,012 --> 00:04:41,780
diesel adventure van
on the planet.
98
00:04:41,782 --> 00:04:45,784
First, we'll rip out
the interior and make it
a true home away from home
99
00:04:45,786 --> 00:04:48,787
with a custom fold-away bed
that turns into
a seating unit.
100
00:04:48,789 --> 00:04:51,089
A kitchenette with
a working sink,
101
00:04:51,091 --> 00:04:52,591
and a durable plank flooring
102
00:04:53,294 --> 00:04:55,193
To hold all that extra weigh
103
00:04:55,195 --> 00:04:56,728
we're gonna upgrade the turb
104
00:04:56,830 --> 00:05:00,299
and add an oversized
fuel cell for long journeys
105
00:05:00,301 --> 00:05:04,636
Then, we'll clean up the bod
new front and rear bumpers,
106
00:05:04,705 --> 00:05:07,239
paint, wheels and tires,
107
00:05:07,341 --> 00:05:09,841
and a custom storage system
on the rooftop
108
00:05:09,910 --> 00:05:12,411
with solar panel for
off-grid adventures.
109
00:05:13,314 --> 00:05:14,913
That actually sounds amazing.
110
00:05:14,915 --> 00:05:16,315
Kind of can't wait to get
this thing in the shop.
111
00:05:17,384 --> 00:05:19,017
Well...
112
00:05:19,019 --> 00:05:21,086
there's actually something
I need to tell you about
our trip home
113
00:05:21,088 --> 00:05:23,455
after we paid the guy $9000.
114
00:05:26,794 --> 00:05:29,528
There I was, driving along,
driving along,
having a great time.
115
00:05:29,629 --> 00:05:31,530
[exclaims] Whoa!
116
00:05:31,631 --> 00:05:33,398
-Do you see the Bald Eagle
fly overhead?
-No.
117
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:34,733
Bro, that's a sign.
118
00:05:34,735 --> 00:05:36,702
If I've ever seen it,
it's a sign. It means,
it's go time.
119
00:05:37,805 --> 00:05:38,937
Hi, we're in a van.
120
00:05:38,939 --> 00:05:40,739
It's a Delica,
but thanks for asking.
121
00:05:42,643 --> 00:05:44,042
-Pop!
-[tires squeal]
122
00:05:44,044 --> 00:05:45,677
"What was that? That's weird."
123
00:05:45,679 --> 00:05:49,514
Luckily, I'm inside a cab
where you can just lift up
the seat and look underneath.
124
00:05:49,516 --> 00:05:51,950
I look underneath to see
if the boot popped off
the turbo...
125
00:05:52,953 --> 00:05:54,119
Got a fire.
126
00:05:54,121 --> 00:05:55,754
Definitely on fire.
127
00:05:55,822 --> 00:05:57,022
[Dave] I need more water.
128
00:05:57,024 --> 00:05:58,690
Holy [bleep].
129
00:05:58,692 --> 00:06:00,025
What the hell happened?
130
00:06:00,027 --> 00:06:02,427
[Dave] I think if we take this
seat out, we might be okay.
131
00:06:03,097 --> 00:06:04,529
The seat's still on fire.
132
00:06:05,632 --> 00:06:07,599
Oh, my gosh.
133
00:06:07,601 --> 00:06:10,902
I see fire. I have like,
a splash in my water bottle,
I use it,
134
00:06:11,605 --> 00:06:13,238
no dice.
135
00:06:13,307 --> 00:06:16,141
-[Dave groans]
-[Muscle] Ah! This is our van.
136
00:06:16,243 --> 00:06:18,610
-I'm way pissed, man!
-This sucks!
137
00:06:20,614 --> 00:06:22,147
Muscle's calling 911.
138
00:06:22,249 --> 00:06:24,950
But the fire just keeps
getting bigger and bigger.
139
00:06:25,051 --> 00:06:26,952
[fire engine alarm blaring]
140
00:06:29,623 --> 00:06:32,491
[Dave] At this point,
people are starting to stop
behind us, they're staring.
141
00:06:32,493 --> 00:06:34,693
The van is
completely engulfed.
142
00:06:34,695 --> 00:06:36,495
I was really excited
for that one.
143
00:06:36,497 --> 00:06:38,330
By the time
the firefighters get there,
144
00:06:40,300 --> 00:06:41,500
it's too late.
145
00:06:41,502 --> 00:06:43,135
It is absolutely destroyed.
146
00:06:44,037 --> 00:06:45,370
[Dave] Glad nobody was hurt.
147
00:06:45,372 --> 00:06:47,139
Not carting the family around.
148
00:06:47,207 --> 00:06:49,608
But I'm really sad to watch
that Delica go like this.
149
00:06:50,444 --> 00:06:52,210
Really sad.
150
00:06:52,212 --> 00:06:54,212
First time I've ever burned
a vehicle to the ground.
151
00:06:54,214 --> 00:06:55,847
Check that one off
the bucket list.
152
00:07:01,321 --> 00:07:03,688
Guess I found out how far
you could push these things.
153
00:07:03,690 --> 00:07:05,991
I'm actually completely
speechless. I mean,
154
00:07:05,993 --> 00:07:08,193
-we've melted cabs before.
-[Dave] Mm-hm.
155
00:07:08,195 --> 00:07:11,029
But never an entire vehicle
and never ever...
156
00:07:11,031 --> 00:07:13,799
-Never.
-...before we ever got
the vehicle back to the shop.
157
00:07:13,801 --> 00:07:15,033
-Yeah, it was... Well.
-[phone ringing]
158
00:07:16,036 --> 00:07:17,335
-Who's that?
-Uh-oh.
159
00:07:18,806 --> 00:07:20,539
-It's Red Beard.
-No, don't answer that.
160
00:07:20,607 --> 00:07:22,407
-Dude--
-Oh, it's too late.
161
00:07:23,510 --> 00:07:25,243
Hey, Red Beard.
162
00:07:25,345 --> 00:07:26,545
Shouldn't have answered it.
163
00:07:26,613 --> 00:07:28,046
[Red Beard] [bleeping]
164
00:07:36,190 --> 00:07:39,024
After that little bit
of a fiasco,
165
00:07:39,026 --> 00:07:41,426
Red Beard, as you can imagine,
166
00:07:41,528 --> 00:07:45,297
not real pumped with,
not just this guy,
but kind of all of us.
167
00:07:45,299 --> 00:07:48,433
But now, he even asked us all
to go for a drive together.
168
00:07:51,205 --> 00:07:52,938
I feel like it's from a movie,
you know?
169
00:07:53,006 --> 00:07:55,040
He pulls up to
a remote location,
he hands you a shovel,
170
00:07:55,141 --> 00:07:56,541
-dig your own grave.
-Oh, [bleep].
Is that what's happening?
171
00:07:56,610 --> 00:07:57,642
Oh, no.
172
00:07:58,712 --> 00:08:00,545
We're going to
the storage yard.
173
00:08:00,614 --> 00:08:03,148
I feel like I'm getting
tricked into
liquidating something.
174
00:08:03,250 --> 00:08:05,183
Look, accidents happen.
175
00:08:05,185 --> 00:08:09,588
But when you burn down
a van that you've just spent
$9000 on,
176
00:08:09,590 --> 00:08:12,290
you can't just go out and buy
another one willy-nilly.
177
00:08:12,292 --> 00:08:15,827
Before we invest in another
auction build, we have to
recoup our losses.
178
00:08:15,929 --> 00:08:18,964
And the best way to do that
is by selling something that
we already own.
179
00:08:20,300 --> 00:08:24,002
Look at all this stuff
just sitting here.
All this inventory.
180
00:08:24,004 --> 00:08:26,404
-It's like
the Bermuda Triangle.
-It is.
181
00:08:27,674 --> 00:08:31,977
Our overflow lot is like
Heavy D's own
Island of Broken Dreams.
182
00:08:31,979 --> 00:08:34,779
He has all the good stuff
that he wants to put up
for auction
183
00:08:34,781 --> 00:08:36,647
at the lot by the shop.
184
00:08:36,649 --> 00:08:39,951
And all the other stuff tha
he spent money on, that he
hopes I forget about,
185
00:08:40,020 --> 00:08:41,887
tucked away, hidden over her
186
00:08:41,889 --> 00:08:44,523
Ford Explorer, don't even know
whose it is.
187
00:08:45,225 --> 00:08:47,592
This, guys, has potential.
188
00:08:47,594 --> 00:08:49,961
However, that's probably still
a month's worth of work.
189
00:08:51,131 --> 00:08:53,298
5-ton, scrap, probably.
190
00:08:54,301 --> 00:08:56,034
Here's another good option
but you know what?
191
00:08:56,036 --> 00:08:57,335
She got parted out.
192
00:08:58,605 --> 00:09:00,705
We don't have time for a big
truck build project right now.
193
00:09:00,707 --> 00:09:03,241
We need something fast.
Maybe something small.
194
00:09:03,343 --> 00:09:05,143
You know what? Come here,
let me...
195
00:09:07,214 --> 00:09:08,213
Look at this real quick.
196
00:09:08,916 --> 00:09:11,583
This is an old airport tug.
197
00:09:11,585 --> 00:09:13,051
People use this to pull
their planes around.
198
00:09:13,086 --> 00:09:14,753
And I don't know why,
199
00:09:14,821 --> 00:09:17,422
but they gave this thing
the sexiest bodylines
you've ever seen.
200
00:09:22,796 --> 00:09:25,030
You know what
the best part is?
We paid zero for this.
201
00:09:28,735 --> 00:09:30,602
-[Red Beard] Are they fast?
Are they just...
-[Heavy D] I don't know.
202
00:09:30,604 --> 00:09:31,836
-[Red Beard] ...powerful?
-No.
203
00:09:31,838 --> 00:09:32,770
-[Heavy D] I think
it's powerful.
-Can it be fast?
204
00:09:32,772 --> 00:09:34,306
-Yes.
-They're not even
really powerful.
205
00:09:34,308 --> 00:09:35,507
They're just very low geared.
206
00:09:35,509 --> 00:09:36,775
It's got a four cylinder
Cummins in there.
207
00:09:36,777 --> 00:09:40,779
This 1992 Clark DT50 airport
tug was originally designed
208
00:09:40,781 --> 00:09:42,747
to haul the baggage carts
around the airport.
209
00:09:42,816 --> 00:09:47,085
However, they were also
capable of moving small
aircraft around the ramp.
210
00:09:47,087 --> 00:09:51,056
These tugs are pretty robust
They're made to just work
all day long.
211
00:09:51,124 --> 00:09:54,693
The thing is, we really can't
lose unless we spend
too much money.
212
00:09:54,695 --> 00:09:56,094
I know Red Beard's skeptical
213
00:09:56,096 --> 00:09:57,595
And can't really blame him.
214
00:09:57,597 --> 00:10:00,398
Because at first glance, eh...
it doesn't look
that impressive.
215
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:05,337
But if we can turn this old
airport baggage cart into like
an actual airplane tug
216
00:10:05,405 --> 00:10:07,105
that can move planes
around an airport,
217
00:10:07,107 --> 00:10:09,040
we could easily double
its value,
218
00:10:09,042 --> 00:10:12,811
which would be awesome
because that would help offset
the costs from the van
219
00:10:13,680 --> 00:10:14,713
that you and Muscle
220
00:10:15,582 --> 00:10:17,449
burned completely
to the ground.
221
00:10:17,517 --> 00:10:20,318
[Dave] I was really excited
for that one.
222
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,588
However, Red Beard isn't too
keen about letting us buy
another auction vehicle
223
00:10:23,590 --> 00:10:25,023
until we get the tug sold.
224
00:10:26,193 --> 00:10:27,892
Nice.
225
00:10:27,894 --> 00:10:30,595
Which means that, in order t
keep the auction lineup
on track
226
00:10:30,597 --> 00:10:34,299
to make this big, you know,
explosive, exciting event...
227
00:10:34,301 --> 00:10:36,101
And down.
228
00:10:36,103 --> 00:10:38,837
...I'm gonna have to dig
a little bit deeper into
my personal stash
229
00:10:38,905 --> 00:10:41,206
to come up with something
that's really gonna
blow people away.
230
00:10:44,678 --> 00:10:48,179
So, initially for the auction
I suggested selling some of
our old vehicles.
231
00:10:48,181 --> 00:10:49,781
Whether they were
race vehicles,
232
00:10:49,783 --> 00:10:51,950
or stunt vehicles that
we created viral videos with
233
00:10:51,985 --> 00:10:55,453
Also, just some vehicles tha
we have for sale that
nobody's bought yet.
234
00:10:55,522 --> 00:10:58,023
And, you know, when I
mentioned that to Red Beard,
235
00:10:58,025 --> 00:10:59,424
dude was freaking pumped.
236
00:10:59,426 --> 00:11:00,992
This is fantastic.
237
00:11:00,994 --> 00:11:04,996
There's one member of this
Sparks Motors fleet that
I'm pretty confident
238
00:11:04,998 --> 00:11:07,298
if we put up for sale,
people will pay top dollar
for it.
239
00:11:07,300 --> 00:11:10,402
However, it's not gonna be one
that I actually really am
very anxious to get rid of
240
00:11:10,404 --> 00:11:11,836
because we use it
all the time.
241
00:11:11,905 --> 00:11:13,304
I mean, we'd literally just
used it.
242
00:11:15,008 --> 00:11:17,442
Talk about some value, right?
243
00:11:17,477 --> 00:11:19,678
One of the hardest working
machines in our fleet.
244
00:11:19,680 --> 00:11:23,248
No, I know. And this hurts me
more than it hurts
anybody else.
245
00:11:23,316 --> 00:11:26,117
Years ago, I came across thi
old decommissioned firetruck
246
00:11:26,119 --> 00:11:29,087
That would be damn near
perfect for what we're trying
to do.
247
00:11:29,089 --> 00:11:31,022
[making siren sounds]
248
00:11:31,024 --> 00:11:34,259
This thing had a big engine
nice transmission,
249
00:11:34,294 --> 00:11:37,696
big, beefy parts,
and this huge cab.
250
00:11:37,698 --> 00:11:40,098
I mean, realistically,
you probably got room for
eight seats in there, right?
251
00:11:40,100 --> 00:11:41,833
Yeah.
252
00:11:41,835 --> 00:11:44,002
And as I got to look at that,
I thought, "That could be
the perfect tow truck,
253
00:11:44,004 --> 00:11:46,037
because it seats a lot
of people, it's got a ton
of power."
254
00:11:46,139 --> 00:11:47,171
Yeah, there you go.
255
00:11:47,173 --> 00:11:49,841
We installed new
heavy duty real axels.
256
00:11:49,910 --> 00:11:51,109
Installed stacks.
257
00:11:51,111 --> 00:11:52,377
Whoa!
258
00:11:52,379 --> 00:11:54,979
[Heavy D] I mean,
we went all out on this truc
259
00:11:54,981 --> 00:11:57,315
And it turned into one of
the coolest,
260
00:11:57,317 --> 00:12:00,985
one of the most capable
roll-back tow trucks
I've ever seen.
261
00:12:00,987 --> 00:12:03,922
Man, that is one sweet
tow truck.
262
00:12:03,924 --> 00:12:06,524
It is the ultimate vehicle.
It's proved itself
263
00:12:06,593 --> 00:12:08,359
working for us over
the last few years,
264
00:12:08,361 --> 00:12:10,328
which has been awesome
but it also shows,
265
00:12:10,430 --> 00:12:13,698
because the stacks are
all rusty, hydraulic lines
are broken and leaky.
266
00:12:13,700 --> 00:12:17,402
It just got a bunch of stuf
that's been neglected
over the years.
267
00:12:17,404 --> 00:12:20,338
But if we can get it back
into top notch condition,
268
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:21,940
the way it was when we first
built it,
269
00:12:22,041 --> 00:12:24,309
I have a feeling that
this could be one of the,
270
00:12:24,311 --> 00:12:26,478
you know,
biggest heavy hitters
at the auction.
271
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:28,479
Here's what I'm thinking.
272
00:12:28,481 --> 00:12:32,016
To get this fire truck turne
tow truck looking and workin
flawlessly once again,
273
00:12:32,018 --> 00:12:35,153
we're gonna start by fixing
whatever's causing the bed
to not function properly.
274
00:12:35,255 --> 00:12:37,589
Then we'll clean up all
the little dents and dings
on the truck
275
00:12:37,591 --> 00:12:39,524
and recoat the stacks.
276
00:12:39,593 --> 00:12:42,393
We'll install new bedside
rails along with a new set
of mirrors,
277
00:12:42,395 --> 00:12:44,295
replace any missing spikes,
278
00:12:44,297 --> 00:12:47,398
then tie everything togethe
with a fresh coat of that
beautiful green paint.
279
00:12:48,635 --> 00:12:50,602
-Let's take this auction
over the top.
-I'm ready.
280
00:12:51,138 --> 00:12:53,037
[engine sputtering]
281
00:12:53,039 --> 00:12:54,305
-Uh-oh.
-[man] Engine's locked up?
282
00:12:54,307 --> 00:12:56,307
Well, let's cancel this
whole episode.
283
00:12:56,309 --> 00:12:59,444
The bed is crashing into
the cab of this truck.
284
00:13:02,682 --> 00:13:05,683
We're just couple of weeks
away from our big auction.
285
00:13:05,685 --> 00:13:09,821
And unfortunately, that
awesome adventure van that
I had my heart set on building
286
00:13:09,890 --> 00:13:11,890
went up in flames
right before my very eyes.
287
00:13:11,892 --> 00:13:13,057
Got fire.
288
00:13:13,126 --> 00:13:14,793
Definitely on fire.
289
00:13:14,795 --> 00:13:16,127
Right under my very butt.
290
00:13:18,298 --> 00:13:21,232
But to generate some more
cash flow, you know, to...
291
00:13:21,935 --> 00:13:23,735
ease old Red Beard's nerves,
292
00:13:23,803 --> 00:13:27,305
we went and got an old tug
from the overflow lot.
293
00:13:29,676 --> 00:13:31,309
Telling you guys,
this thing might be a hit.
294
00:13:32,946 --> 00:13:36,047
I know Red Beard's skeptical,
and honestly, he has a right
to be.
295
00:13:37,384 --> 00:13:39,484
Not only have we never
driven this tug,
296
00:13:39,486 --> 00:13:42,153
it actually was never built
to be tug in the first place.
297
00:13:42,222 --> 00:13:44,823
It was made to haul baggage
around the airports.
298
00:13:44,825 --> 00:13:46,724
However, with
some modifications,
299
00:13:46,826 --> 00:13:50,328
I think it'll be good enough
to be able to be an actual
airport tug.
300
00:13:51,031 --> 00:13:52,330
All right.
301
00:13:52,398 --> 00:13:54,032
Should be good enough
to give it a whirl.
302
00:13:54,034 --> 00:13:57,602
And even though this is
a fairly specialized vehicle,
it's a limited market,
303
00:13:57,604 --> 00:14:01,306
I've already got a pretty
good potential buyer in mind
304
00:14:01,308 --> 00:14:03,408
Maybe we could tell Red Beard
'cause he's still sweating
305
00:14:03,410 --> 00:14:05,510
over the $9000 I lost
on the van.
306
00:14:05,512 --> 00:14:08,313
Honestly, I think I like
watching you squirm better.
307
00:14:09,616 --> 00:14:10,582
You don't need that.
308
00:14:10,584 --> 00:14:12,183
[Muscle] You have
another battery?
309
00:14:12,185 --> 00:14:13,284
[Heavy D] Yeah, Chris got one.
310
00:14:13,286 --> 00:14:14,586
[Red Beard] We already bought
a new battery?
311
00:14:14,588 --> 00:14:16,487
-Uh...
-We found it.
312
00:14:16,489 --> 00:14:18,189
[Red Beard]
Keep finding parts.
313
00:14:18,191 --> 00:14:20,291
Yeah, I have a feeling you're
gonna get real familiar with
the term "sunk cost".
314
00:14:20,293 --> 00:14:22,594
Yeah, I don't know why
I expected anything else.
315
00:14:22,596 --> 00:14:25,463
I mean, yeah, let's build this
weird airport vehicle
316
00:14:25,465 --> 00:14:29,300
for, I don't know,
all the pilots around here,
I guess.
317
00:14:29,903 --> 00:14:32,403
[Heavy D] Battery is in.
318
00:14:32,405 --> 00:14:34,706
-See if it got any juice.
There you go.
-[Muscle exclaims] Oh!
319
00:14:34,708 --> 00:14:37,041
-[Dave] It got power.
-Now comes the moment
of truth.
320
00:14:37,043 --> 00:14:38,009
See if it actually starts.
321
00:14:38,812 --> 00:14:41,045
-Whoa.
-[engine sputters]
322
00:14:42,015 --> 00:14:43,114
Mm, starter.
323
00:14:43,116 --> 00:14:45,917
That starter's
not turning anything.
324
00:14:45,919 --> 00:14:47,952
-Uh-oh.
-[Dave] Engine's locked up.
325
00:14:47,954 --> 00:14:50,822
-Well, let's cancel this
whole episode.
-[Red Beard] Yeah.
326
00:14:50,891 --> 00:14:52,590
Makes sense why this thing
was free.
327
00:14:52,592 --> 00:14:55,627
"Yo, dude. It's super cool.
It's got a four
cylinder Cummins.
328
00:14:55,695 --> 00:14:59,097
But, you know, we just don't
know if it, you know, runs."
329
00:14:59,099 --> 00:15:01,199
-Good?
-Yeah, good enough.
330
00:15:01,201 --> 00:15:03,601
We are spinning the motor
over with the socket to see
331
00:15:03,603 --> 00:15:05,236
if the motor's freed up 'cause
332
00:15:05,305 --> 00:15:06,738
if we can't spin it
with the socket,
333
00:15:06,740 --> 00:15:08,339
then it means
the motor seized up.
334
00:15:08,408 --> 00:15:10,341
If the motor seized up,
that's not good.
335
00:15:10,410 --> 00:15:12,410
[Dave] And she spins,
but it's definitely tight.
336
00:15:12,412 --> 00:15:15,513
I just think the starter
needs to come out and see
if the solonoid's bad.
337
00:15:15,515 --> 00:15:16,414
[Dave] Take the starter out.
338
00:15:22,689 --> 00:15:24,155
Ooh, sick.
339
00:15:24,257 --> 00:15:24,889
Gross.
340
00:15:25,492 --> 00:15:26,791
Ah!
341
00:15:28,228 --> 00:15:30,695
[Heavy D] So, right now,
the starter should be workin
342
00:15:30,697 --> 00:15:33,398
It's got the power
and everything that it needs
But it's not engaging.
343
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:34,999
But it's spinning.
344
00:15:35,001 --> 00:15:37,135
So, we're gonna pull it
completely out of the tug,
put it on the bench,
345
00:15:37,203 --> 00:15:38,802
take a look at it
and see what's going on
346
00:15:38,804 --> 00:15:41,306
so we can figure out whether
we need a new one,
or if this one can be fixed.
347
00:15:43,643 --> 00:15:45,109
[Dave] Guys,
the starter's out.
348
00:15:45,111 --> 00:15:46,311
This is a starter motor.
349
00:15:46,313 --> 00:15:48,479
Starter motor has the big
spinney part down here,
350
00:15:48,481 --> 00:15:50,114
that makes it spin and turn
the motor over.
351
00:15:50,116 --> 00:15:52,951
And then, right here is
the solenoid that basically
has an arm
352
00:15:53,052 --> 00:15:55,787
that throws this gear
into the flywheel,
353
00:15:55,789 --> 00:15:57,021
which spins it.
354
00:15:57,023 --> 00:15:59,190
All right, Red Beard. Now what
we're doing is running
355
00:15:59,192 --> 00:16:01,492
wires to the starter
from the battery.
356
00:16:01,494 --> 00:16:03,962
We're gonna see if
the solenoid is throwing
that gear outwards.
357
00:16:04,731 --> 00:16:07,131
That's our big indicator
right now.
358
00:16:07,233 --> 00:16:07,932
[Muscle] Moment of truth.
359
00:16:08,735 --> 00:16:10,435
[Dave] Ha, power.
360
00:16:10,536 --> 00:16:13,604
-[Red Beard] Oh, there we go.
-[all cheer] Yeah.
361
00:16:13,606 --> 00:16:14,839
-That's good.
-That's not good.
362
00:16:14,907 --> 00:16:16,507
[Red Beard] You said we wanted
to do that.
363
00:16:16,509 --> 00:16:19,544
I was hoping it wouldn't
do that because that means
it should've been working.
364
00:16:20,246 --> 00:16:21,679
[sighs]
365
00:16:21,681 --> 00:16:23,681
Honestly, this has been
a rollercoaster ride
366
00:16:23,683 --> 00:16:26,517
'cause I was really pumped
on the whole thing.
Then we've got it in.
367
00:16:28,521 --> 00:16:30,655
Not starting, but then
we pulled the starter out,
368
00:16:30,723 --> 00:16:32,490
and it worked.
369
00:16:32,492 --> 00:16:34,058
But apparently,
that was a bad thing?
370
00:16:34,127 --> 00:16:36,094
So that was another
up and down.
I don't even know!
371
00:16:36,096 --> 00:16:37,595
Where are we at?
What does this all mean?
372
00:16:37,597 --> 00:16:40,631
Uh, we're hoping the starter
is bad.
373
00:16:40,700 --> 00:16:43,601
It appears to be good
when it's out of the vehicle.
374
00:16:43,603 --> 00:16:46,004
But it doesn't appear to be
good when it's in the vehicle.
375
00:16:46,006 --> 00:16:47,138
Crossing our fingers
it's the starter,
376
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:48,439
'cause if it's not
the starter,
377
00:16:48,475 --> 00:16:49,941
then it's the engine.
378
00:16:50,043 --> 00:16:52,710
This could be like, a $100 fix
379
00:16:53,713 --> 00:16:56,214
or a $3000-4000 fix.
380
00:16:56,216 --> 00:17:00,985
So now, not only are we down
$9000 from the van that
we caught on fire,
381
00:17:00,987 --> 00:17:03,021
Heavy D wants to spend
money on a starter,
382
00:17:03,023 --> 00:17:06,691
even though he's not even sure
that that will fix
the engine problems.
383
00:17:06,693 --> 00:17:09,193
♪ Around here,
We hustle for a living ♪
384
00:17:09,195 --> 00:17:12,096

We grind or a living ♪
385

We hustle for a living ♪
386
00:17:15,034 --> 00:17:17,735
While we wait for the starter
to show up, for the tug,
387
00:17:17,837 --> 00:17:21,039
it's time to get busy
restoring the old company
tow truck for the auction.
388
00:17:21,041 --> 00:17:23,674
[Heavy D] It's one of those
things where, if we put it u
on the auction block,
389
00:17:23,676 --> 00:17:25,610
I really do think it's gonna
do a good job
390
00:17:25,612 --> 00:17:28,112
at enticing some high dollar
bidders to come to the sale.
391
00:17:28,114 --> 00:17:30,381
It's been a pure work horse.
392
00:17:30,383 --> 00:17:32,116
Worked hard,
but run in to the ground.
393
00:17:32,251 --> 00:17:35,653
Now the bed's broken,
so, we're gonna have to dig in
and find out what's going on.
394
00:17:35,721 --> 00:17:36,888
-You ready?
-[guy] Yep.
395
00:17:36,890 --> 00:17:38,689
[engine sputters, starts]
396
00:17:40,727 --> 00:17:42,727
PTO coming on.
397
00:17:42,796 --> 00:17:44,796
I've kind of noticed
a problem already.
398
00:17:44,798 --> 00:17:46,364
I can't hear the PTO
coming on.
399
00:17:46,366 --> 00:17:47,698
I can't hear the PTO either.
400
00:17:48,435 --> 00:17:49,500
We got nothing.
401
00:17:49,936 --> 00:17:50,935
and no PTO.
402
00:17:50,937 --> 00:17:52,937
PTO means Power Take Off.
403
00:17:53,039 --> 00:17:54,772
'Cause it is taking
the power from the engine,
404
00:17:54,774 --> 00:17:56,441
putting it through
hydraulic pump,
405
00:17:56,542 --> 00:17:59,644
supplying power to the bed
so that you can operate your
handles in the back
406
00:17:59,745 --> 00:18:01,112
and actually use your bed.
407
00:18:02,115 --> 00:18:02,914
Oh, no.
408
00:18:03,783 --> 00:18:05,850
[Justin laughs] "Oh, no!"
409
00:18:05,919 --> 00:18:08,086
-Does that excite you?
[laughs]
-No, not really.
410
00:18:08,088 --> 00:18:09,720
-That's your job, man.
-[Dave] Oh, man.
411
00:18:09,756 --> 00:18:12,890
[DJ] I'll go listen for it.
Turn it on back there.
412
00:18:12,892 --> 00:18:15,293
So, we're gonna start
chasing wires,
we're looking at the fuse box,
413
00:18:15,295 --> 00:18:18,029
we're looking at all those
nest of wire that we've
got in there.
414
00:18:18,031 --> 00:18:21,132
-Uh, green, red... black.
-Green, red and black.
415
00:18:21,901 --> 00:18:24,802
This is why I hate wiring.
416
00:18:24,804 --> 00:18:27,038
That right there
would be my nightmare.
417
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:29,941
Any look pinched,
torn or melted?
418
00:18:29,943 --> 00:18:31,809
-That one's pinched
pretty good, ain't it?
-Yeah.
419
00:18:34,047 --> 00:18:36,114
[engine running]
420
00:18:38,718 --> 00:18:41,152
[DJ] Hey, so,
I definitely got...
421
00:18:41,220 --> 00:18:43,020
-...PTOs on. Yeah.
-PTOs on? Yes!
422
00:18:43,022 --> 00:18:45,456
We got an engaged PTO,
the light is working,
423
00:18:45,525 --> 00:18:47,792
and now it's time to check
on the hydraulics.
424
00:18:49,395 --> 00:18:50,595
No leakies.
425
00:18:50,597 --> 00:18:51,796
See the drip?
426
00:18:53,633 --> 00:18:55,032
What's dripping?
427
00:18:55,034 --> 00:18:56,801
Must be
hydraulic fluid, right,
428
00:18:56,803 --> 00:18:58,102
down there in the center.
429
00:18:58,104 --> 00:19:00,938
I mean, it's right
at the back of the cab.
430
00:19:00,940 --> 00:19:02,940
And as soon as the bed's back,
431
00:19:02,942 --> 00:19:05,009
there's a whole mess
of other problems underneath.
432
00:19:05,011 --> 00:19:08,479
This bed is crashing into
the cab of this truck
433
00:19:08,481 --> 00:19:12,049
and all this framework
up here, like,
434
00:19:12,085 --> 00:19:15,820
You got busted parts on
the bed lockers.
435
00:19:15,922 --> 00:19:17,287
Everything's all bent up.
436
00:19:17,289 --> 00:19:20,391
The roller is completely
busted off and so is
your bed lock.
437
00:19:20,393 --> 00:19:22,693
So, the actual bed sits on
two C rails.
438
00:19:22,695 --> 00:19:25,930
Bed locker has this
guide plate and a roller.
439
00:19:25,932 --> 00:19:29,300
Your C rail goes right over
the top of it, which locks
into place,
440
00:19:29,302 --> 00:19:31,034
which means the bed
can't go up and down.
441
00:19:31,036 --> 00:19:33,638
A roller sits right in
the middle and C channel
locks it into place.
442
00:19:33,706 --> 00:19:36,140
Without it, your bed's
bouncing all over the place,
443
00:19:36,242 --> 00:19:37,575
going left and right,
up and down,
444
00:19:37,577 --> 00:19:39,577
causing damage to your truck,
445
00:19:39,579 --> 00:19:43,114
'causing a lot of danger
for the load behind you and
everyone driving around you.
446
00:19:43,116 --> 00:19:44,582
It's pretty essential that
we get these fixed.
447
00:19:44,584 --> 00:19:46,450
So, we're gonna need to buy
some new parts,
448
00:19:46,519 --> 00:19:49,120
Pad up some pieces
for the stacks and fix
the broken bed.
449
00:19:51,057 --> 00:19:54,692
[Heavy D] If this doesn't
work, this build could be
a non-starter.
450
00:19:55,528 --> 00:19:56,494
Oh, there's the-- Oh.
451
00:19:57,797 --> 00:19:58,629
Fingers crossed.
452
00:20:01,100 --> 00:20:02,199
Whoa!
453
00:20:09,209 --> 00:20:12,376
While Diesel Dave is deep
in company tow truck,
454
00:20:12,378 --> 00:20:15,313
I'm busy working on
an old airport baggage cart,
455
00:20:15,315 --> 00:20:18,516
trying to convert into a much
more valuable airplane tug.
456
00:20:18,518 --> 00:20:20,518
Problem is, nobody's gotten
it to run before.
457
00:20:21,988 --> 00:20:23,354
Hmm, starter.
458
00:20:24,290 --> 00:20:26,791
And even though we haven't
really had a chance
to figure out
459
00:20:26,793 --> 00:20:28,259
whether the engine
is good or not,
460
00:20:28,294 --> 00:20:29,827
I really think
it's the starter.
461
00:20:29,896 --> 00:20:31,996
And if it is,
we're in good shape.
462
00:20:31,998 --> 00:20:34,198
-Amigo!
-Yo, what's happening?
463
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,534
[speaks Spanish] ...I have.
464
00:20:36,603 --> 00:20:38,002
-You hear that?
We call that Spanglish.
-Oh!
465
00:20:38,004 --> 00:20:39,670
You guys familiar
with Spanglish?
466
00:20:39,672 --> 00:20:43,207
'Cause if the starter works
and the engine spins, great.
467
00:20:43,209 --> 00:20:45,343
If it doesn't spin the engine
and the engine's locked up,
468
00:20:45,411 --> 00:20:46,777
there's no way we're gonna be
able to afford to
469
00:20:46,779 --> 00:20:48,246
put an engine in it
and still make any money
470
00:20:48,314 --> 00:20:51,749
because remember, we have
to offset all the costs from
471
00:20:51,751 --> 00:20:54,685
the van that burnt
to the ground.
472
00:20:54,687 --> 00:20:56,621
[Muscle] It is
absolutely destroyed.
473
00:20:57,790 --> 00:20:59,056
Do you remember that one?
474
00:20:59,993 --> 00:21:01,191
-Vaguely.
-Yeah.
475
00:21:01,193 --> 00:21:03,694
-Fun fact for you guys.
Ready for this?
-Oh, okay.
476
00:21:03,696 --> 00:21:05,396
Even though this thing sounded
like it was working, right?
477
00:21:05,398 --> 00:21:08,299
We put it on the bench,
power to it, it was spinning,
478
00:21:08,301 --> 00:21:09,934
but let me show you
the difference.
479
00:21:10,303 --> 00:21:11,102
Magnet.
480
00:21:11,938 --> 00:21:12,803
Hook it to the gear.
481
00:21:13,673 --> 00:21:15,139
See that? This is worn out.
482
00:21:15,241 --> 00:21:18,576
It's not supposed to spin
that freely when the gear
is extended.
483
00:21:18,578 --> 00:21:21,045
It's supposed to have
some resistance,
like this one has,
484
00:21:21,047 --> 00:21:22,747
'cause it shows that
the gears are fully engaged.
485
00:21:22,815 --> 00:21:26,417
-So, that one spins.
-[Chris] Spins.
486
00:21:26,419 --> 00:21:29,787
With this, I'm really crossing
my fingers that this thing
starts right up.
487
00:21:29,789 --> 00:21:31,589
If a tug can be cool,
488
00:21:31,591 --> 00:21:33,157
this tug is gonna be cool.
489
00:21:33,225 --> 00:21:34,725
Like, the coolest tug around
490
00:21:34,794 --> 00:21:36,294
Gotta get it running first.
491
00:21:36,296 --> 00:21:37,828
And then my plan is
492
00:21:37,897 --> 00:21:40,464
I got a buddy across the way,
since our shop's on
the airport here,
493
00:21:40,466 --> 00:21:45,169
I'm literally gonna just
hard close my friend
on buying this.
494
00:21:45,171 --> 00:21:47,605
I'm gonna drive this over
to his hanger 'cause he has
a flight school here.
495
00:21:47,607 --> 00:21:48,973
He has tons of planes.
496
00:21:48,975 --> 00:21:50,941
Tell you this though.
If this doesn't work,
497
00:21:50,943 --> 00:21:53,644
this build could be
a non-starter.
498
00:21:54,781 --> 00:21:57,014
Can you stop talking
and you help me?
499
00:21:59,218 --> 00:22:00,785
Marco's had it with our puns.
500
00:22:00,787 --> 00:22:02,620
-[engine sputters]
-[Heavy D] Oh?
501
00:22:04,390 --> 00:22:06,324
[engine sputtering]
502
00:22:13,199 --> 00:22:16,000
Let's crack the injector
and grab some starting fluid.
503
00:22:16,002 --> 00:22:18,169
With any diesel engine,
after it's been sat
for a while,
504
00:22:18,171 --> 00:22:20,003
you're gonna get air
in the fuel system,
505
00:22:20,006 --> 00:22:23,708
and the fuel system's not good
because if there's air,
it means the pump can't prime,
506
00:22:23,710 --> 00:22:26,110
pump can't prime, it can't
create pressure to open
the injector.
507
00:22:26,112 --> 00:22:27,678
So, it won't start.
So, basically, now,
508
00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:29,947
we're going to spin the moto
with the starter,
509
00:22:30,016 --> 00:22:33,984
crack the fuel lines.
So, that's gonna allow the a
to bleed out the system,
510
00:22:33,986 --> 00:22:35,686
and push new fuel in
511
00:22:35,688 --> 00:22:38,055
with a little starter fluid
and kinda speed up
the cranking process.
512
00:22:38,124 --> 00:22:40,691
And once we see a decent
amount of fuel spraying out
of these injectors,
513
00:22:40,693 --> 00:22:43,327
then we'll tighten them
back up, should fire.
514
00:22:48,234 --> 00:22:49,533
Oh, there's the-- Oh.
515
00:22:50,303 --> 00:22:52,636
One of the injectors is wet.
516
00:22:52,705 --> 00:22:54,939
That's a really good sign.
That means we're finally
getting fuel.
517
00:22:55,007 --> 00:22:57,341
Anytime they start an old
diesel engine, this is just
518
00:22:57,410 --> 00:22:59,310
the most satisfying moment.
519
00:22:59,312 --> 00:23:00,745
[engine sputtering]
520
00:23:04,450 --> 00:23:06,117
There we go. There we go.
521
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,352
Yeah, baby. There she goes.
522
00:23:09,622 --> 00:23:11,722
[engine revs]
523
00:23:16,295 --> 00:23:18,429
-[Chris exclaims] Yeah!
-[Heavy D] Nice to meet you.
[laughs]
524
00:23:18,498 --> 00:23:20,197
-Yeah!
-Yeah.
525
00:23:20,199 --> 00:23:21,599
-Vamonos.
-Vamos.
526
00:23:26,406 --> 00:23:28,739
[foreign dialogue]
527
00:23:28,808 --> 00:23:32,610
[Speaking in Spanish]
528
00:23:35,815 --> 00:23:39,550
So, hooked up to pretty much
a dead weight K-rail barrier.
529
00:23:39,552 --> 00:23:43,387
This thing probably weighs,
uh, couple thousand pounds.
530
00:23:43,389 --> 00:23:47,525
So, a couple thousand pounds
of dead wight would equal
a pretty big airplane.
531
00:23:47,593 --> 00:23:48,526
We'll see if it'll pull it.
532
00:23:49,128 --> 00:23:51,195
[speaking Spanish]
533
00:23:54,700 --> 00:23:56,133
[laughs] Yee-ha-ha!
534
00:23:59,605 --> 00:24:01,439
Come on, come on, come on.
535
00:24:04,477 --> 00:24:05,642
Pretty good.
536
00:24:05,644 --> 00:24:07,745
Now that we have the old tu
up and running,
537
00:24:07,813 --> 00:24:09,780
it's time to finish
the modifications to turn it
538
00:24:09,782 --> 00:24:12,583
into a machine that can
actually move
airplanes around.
539
00:24:12,585 --> 00:24:14,485
So, we'll install
an actual key,
540
00:24:14,487 --> 00:24:16,387
so you no longer have to
start it with a coat hanger
541
00:24:16,389 --> 00:24:19,190
add a towbar at the front en
so it can push and pull,
542
00:24:19,192 --> 00:24:22,693
clean up the body, paint,
some new seats.
543
00:24:22,695 --> 00:24:25,729
And then, take it over
and try to sell it to
the flight school next door,
544
00:24:25,831 --> 00:24:28,232
we'll be able to come up
with some cash to purchase
our next auction vehicle.
545
00:24:29,101 --> 00:24:30,100
[honks]
546
00:24:32,004 --> 00:24:32,937
Come on, baby.
547
00:24:34,106 --> 00:24:35,439
Perfecto!
548
00:24:35,508 --> 00:24:37,575
-Not bad.
-Not bad, amigo.
549
00:24:37,577 --> 00:24:38,975
It pushes pretty good.
550
00:24:45,852 --> 00:24:49,053
After burning our latest
auction purchase
to the ground...
551
00:24:49,922 --> 00:24:52,723
[Muscle] It is
absolutely destroyed.
552
00:24:52,825 --> 00:24:55,493
...Diesel Dave is currently
working on preparing
553
00:24:55,495 --> 00:24:57,928
one of our most, like,
prized possessions,
554
00:24:57,930 --> 00:24:59,196
a rollback tow truck.
555
00:24:59,198 --> 00:25:02,800
This bed is crashing into
the cab of this truck.
556
00:25:02,802 --> 00:25:05,669
The roller is completely
busted off, and so is
your bed lock there.
557
00:25:05,671 --> 00:25:07,304
So, we fixed our wiring issue,
558
00:25:07,306 --> 00:25:10,040
tightened up our
leaky hydraulic lines,
so now the bed moves.
559
00:25:10,576 --> 00:25:12,242
There it is.
560
00:25:12,244 --> 00:25:15,246
And now, we just gotta fix
the damage and make sure
that it never happens again.
561
00:25:15,314 --> 00:25:17,748
I say we cut like, a 4x6 hole,
562
00:25:17,783 --> 00:25:20,684
bend a new piece of metal,
you'll weld it in there nice,
563
00:25:20,686 --> 00:25:22,486
grind it down till
you don't see the lines,
564
00:25:22,488 --> 00:25:24,555
bend all these bent
pieces back.
565
00:25:24,590 --> 00:25:27,591
The broken bed was banging
into the stacks so hard
566
00:25:27,593 --> 00:25:30,794
that it wore a hole
in the exhaust
causing exhaust leak,
567
00:25:30,796 --> 00:25:33,097
and eventually, over time,
it's gonna leak grim
all over the cab
568
00:25:33,099 --> 00:25:34,532
which is not good
for business.
569
00:25:36,035 --> 00:25:39,103
So, Justin is cutting out
damaged part of the stack.
570
00:25:39,205 --> 00:25:42,039
I'm at the plasma table
cutting out a 4x6 panel...
571
00:25:42,074 --> 00:25:43,740
Pop it around.
572
00:25:45,211 --> 00:25:47,745
...and then we're going to
bend it to match the curve
of the stack,
573
00:25:47,813 --> 00:25:48,646
and weld it on.
574
00:25:58,391 --> 00:26:00,090
Bro, that looks brand new.
575
00:26:00,092 --> 00:26:01,592
YOu ready to move on
to phase two?
576
00:26:01,594 --> 00:26:03,694
Operation Bend it Back.
577
00:26:03,696 --> 00:26:06,063
So, not only was the bed
hitting the stacks,
578
00:26:06,098 --> 00:26:07,297
but when the bed hit
the stacks,
579
00:26:07,299 --> 00:26:09,500
the stacks were then hitting
the cabin causing damage.
580
00:26:09,502 --> 00:26:11,168
So, now that we've fixed
the stacks,
581
00:26:11,170 --> 00:26:15,005
we need to bend them back to
their proper position.
But as you remember,
582
00:26:15,007 --> 00:26:17,708
these stacks are very big
and very heavy,
583
00:26:17,710 --> 00:26:20,210
and were a huge pain
to install in the first plac
584
00:26:21,614 --> 00:26:24,448
-Whoa...
-Oh, my goodness.
585
00:26:24,516 --> 00:26:27,017
So, I have a bit of
an unconventional idea
586
00:26:27,019 --> 00:26:29,353
on how to bend them back
to their proper position.
587
00:26:29,421 --> 00:26:30,854
-I got a red sling.
-Okay?
588
00:26:30,856 --> 00:26:34,592
Sling it around the stack,
choke it to the
headache rack on the bed.
589
00:26:34,594 --> 00:26:36,527
-Mm-hm.
-Turn the truck on,
turn the PTO on
590
00:26:36,629 --> 00:26:38,495
and just back the bed up
just a little bit.
591
00:26:38,497 --> 00:26:41,198
And it should pull
that stack straight up.
I got a big level.
592
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:42,499
-Let's stick the big level
on there.
-Okay.
593
00:26:42,501 --> 00:26:44,401
In my mind,
it's working flawlessly.
594
00:26:47,306 --> 00:26:48,305
Fingers' crossed.
595
00:26:50,209 --> 00:26:51,442
-Good.
-[Muscle] Good?
596
00:26:54,113 --> 00:26:54,945
Whoa!
597
00:26:59,685 --> 00:27:00,918
Perfect. Nice.
598
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:02,953
Phase two complete.
599
00:27:03,022 --> 00:27:04,221
Good job.
600
00:27:04,223 --> 00:27:07,124
Phase three, fix the old
stack rack dents.
601
00:27:08,294 --> 00:27:09,360
All of 'em.
602
00:27:10,296 --> 00:27:12,896
We're gonna go all
blacksmith on the frame,
603
00:27:12,898 --> 00:27:15,399
by heating up the metal
and banging it back
in place.
604
00:27:17,236 --> 00:27:20,738
Can't make a crease.
Gotta persuade it, I mean.
605
00:27:36,789 --> 00:27:38,722
-[man] You ready?
-[Dave] I think so.
606
00:27:42,928 --> 00:27:44,628
The frame still has a bit
of a crease in it.
607
00:27:44,697 --> 00:27:47,097
But all the bolt holes
are back into place.
608
00:27:47,099 --> 00:27:50,701
Which means, we can install
the new parts, make the bed
function again,
609
00:27:50,703 --> 00:27:53,504
and keep it away from the ca
preventing any further damag
610
00:27:54,073 --> 00:27:55,639
Just put the solenoid on.
611
00:27:55,675 --> 00:27:58,275
And now it's time to see
of the cab raises
612
00:27:58,277 --> 00:28:00,511
and still has the clearance
between the stack and the cab,
613
00:28:00,513 --> 00:28:03,013
and also if all
the other parts work.
614
00:28:03,015 --> 00:28:05,115
-Are you ready?
-Yes.
615
00:28:05,117 --> 00:28:10,554
-Aw, look at all that
clearance from stack to cab.
-Oh, buddy!
616
00:28:10,890 --> 00:28:12,056
All right.
617
00:28:12,091 --> 00:28:13,390
-Looks pretty good right?
-That looks great.
618
00:28:13,392 --> 00:28:15,592
Cab goes up and down,
perfect clearance.
619
00:28:17,730 --> 00:28:20,798
Now it's time to fire up
the tow truck, turn the PTO
620
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:21,832
and see how the bed works.
621
00:28:30,910 --> 00:28:33,043
-It's all the way in.
-[indistinct cheering]
622
00:28:33,145 --> 00:28:35,946
[screaming] We did it!
623
00:28:36,482 --> 00:28:37,581
Yeah!
624
00:28:37,583 --> 00:28:39,583
-[Muscle laughs]
-[Dave] Yeah, buddy.
625
00:28:39,585 --> 00:28:42,119
[laughs] Are you kidding me?
626
00:28:42,187 --> 00:28:45,522
I've honestly never seen
a tow truck that
massive before.
627
00:28:53,399 --> 00:28:56,633
We're risking our company's
tried and true tow truck
at our big auction.
628
00:28:56,702 --> 00:28:58,502
And we're really hoping that
it is a big money maker,
629
00:28:58,504 --> 00:29:00,571
now that big rigs
are in high demand.
630
00:29:00,573 --> 00:29:03,674
Meanwhile, I'm still busy
at work, turning the old
baggage cart,
631
00:29:03,676 --> 00:29:05,275
airplane tug,
632
00:29:05,277 --> 00:29:07,845
be able to help raise
the value, turn around
and sell it,
633
00:29:07,913 --> 00:29:11,448
get some cash to cover the van
that Diesel Dave barbecued.
634
00:29:11,517 --> 00:29:13,517
Just a $9000 barbecue.
635
00:29:14,220 --> 00:29:16,587
It is absolutely destroyed.
636
00:29:16,589 --> 00:29:20,057
In order to convert this
baggage cart into an actual,
you know, airplane tug
637
00:29:20,059 --> 00:29:21,725
and be able to get much more
value out of it,
638
00:29:21,794 --> 00:29:24,695
we gotta cut open the front
bumper and mount a hitch there
639
00:29:24,697 --> 00:29:28,298
so that the tug can actuall
push and pulls planes.
640
00:29:28,300 --> 00:29:31,034
Because otherwise, it's no use
to the flight school if
I try to sell it to them.
641
00:29:31,804 --> 00:29:33,704
-Amigo.
-What's up, bro?
642
00:29:34,340 --> 00:29:36,473
I got this for the front.
643
00:29:36,475 --> 00:29:39,910
Front of the tug has
this giant, like,
half inch thick steel bumper
644
00:29:39,912 --> 00:29:43,013
which is awesome because
we can just take this hitch,
645
00:29:43,015 --> 00:29:44,381
recess it on there,
646
00:29:44,383 --> 00:29:47,017
and that way we got something
that pulls and pushes.
647
00:29:49,321 --> 00:29:51,188
The first thing we're gonna do
to get the hitch installed
648
00:29:51,190 --> 00:29:53,824
is cut out a square
to make room for the new
half inch plate.
649
00:30:02,401 --> 00:30:04,401
That's some thick plate.
650
00:30:04,403 --> 00:30:05,803
All right. Let's move that.
651
00:30:22,154 --> 00:30:23,453
-Hey.
-Not bad.
652
00:30:23,455 --> 00:30:27,391
-Not bad.
-Yeah, that is some
thick steel. [laughs]
653
00:30:27,393 --> 00:30:29,726
So, now that we got
the square section cut out
of the bumper,
654
00:30:29,795 --> 00:30:32,496
we're gonna take the grinder
and go around and clean up
the edges.
655
00:30:32,498 --> 00:30:35,299
That's gonna give us a reall
nice, smooth surface
656
00:30:35,301 --> 00:30:37,034
that we can weld this new
plate onto.
657
00:30:51,584 --> 00:30:54,751
-It's strong.
-Yeah, it looks strong.
658
00:30:54,787 --> 00:30:58,188
This vehicle was originally
made to haul baggage carts
around the airport.
659
00:30:58,190 --> 00:31:03,193
But I truly believe that that
little four-cylinder Cummins
diesel engine inside the hood
660
00:31:03,195 --> 00:31:05,596
does have enough torque
and power to be able to
661
00:31:05,598 --> 00:31:07,998
push and pull airplanes
around the runway,
662
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:09,733
which makes it, you know,
quite a bit more valuable.
663
00:31:15,374 --> 00:31:17,140
[Dave] After years
of hard work,
664
00:31:17,142 --> 00:31:21,211
it's not gonna be easy to sa
goodbye to our company's
badass tow truck.
665
00:31:21,213 --> 00:31:26,183
But after spending a week
of repairing all the damage
we've done over the years,
666
00:31:26,185 --> 00:31:27,684
it's working better than ever.
667
00:31:27,686 --> 00:31:29,953
I got a tow truck bed
I need to test.
668
00:31:30,022 --> 00:31:32,689
What better way to test it
than to go pick up another
truck for the auction?
669
00:31:34,226 --> 00:31:37,194
And as long as the bed
functions properly,
670
00:31:37,196 --> 00:31:39,696
-it's gonna fetch us
a pretty penny at the auction.
-I agree.
671
00:31:39,698 --> 00:31:42,199
Jason, who sold Red Beard
the loading cab...
672
00:31:42,201 --> 00:31:43,600
All right, let's just do it.
673
00:31:43,602 --> 00:31:45,602
...called us up and said
he had one more of his builds
674
00:31:45,604 --> 00:31:47,104
that he wanted to consign
at the auction.
675
00:31:47,706 --> 00:31:49,406
But he said it was huge!
676
00:31:49,408 --> 00:31:51,608
So, you know what I thought?
I thought,
677
00:31:51,610 --> 00:31:55,112
"What better way to say
goodbye to our big, green pal
678
00:31:55,114 --> 00:31:57,114
than one last important haul?"
679
00:31:57,116 --> 00:31:58,448
Moment of truth.
680
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:03,353
-Okay.
-Yeah, buddy.
681
00:32:03,389 --> 00:32:04,788
[laughing]
682
00:32:04,790 --> 00:32:07,557
Oh, my gosh. [laughs]
683
00:32:07,559 --> 00:32:09,259
Are you kidding me?
684
00:32:09,328 --> 00:32:13,163
I've honestly never seen a
tow truck that massive before.
It's awesome.
685
00:32:13,231 --> 00:32:16,533
I have to see what you guys
have that you wanna put
in the auction.
686
00:32:16,602 --> 00:32:18,302
-We showed them ours,
they have to show us theirs.
-Yeah.
687
00:32:18,304 --> 00:32:21,605
-Let's go take a look at it.
-[Muscle] That's what I'm
talking about.
688
00:32:21,607 --> 00:32:24,107
-This is it?!
-[Jason 1] So, guys--
This is it, baby.
689
00:32:24,109 --> 00:32:27,945
It's a 1964 GMC 5500
690
00:32:27,947 --> 00:32:29,446
with a few modifications.
691
00:32:29,514 --> 00:32:34,051
-To start off, it had 24 inch
Alcoas in the back here.
-Whoo, okay.
692
00:32:34,086 --> 00:32:38,622
We've got semi-truck air ride,
so heavy duty springs.
693
00:32:38,724 --> 00:32:41,224
-Quite a C-channel going on.
-Quite a C-channel, C notch,
694
00:32:41,293 --> 00:32:44,695
so this thing will lay right
on the ground when you
gear down.
695
00:32:44,697 --> 00:32:46,797
Four-link, extra heavy duty.
696
00:32:46,799 --> 00:32:49,099
-Tubular arms on everything.
-[Muscle] Okay.
697
00:32:49,101 --> 00:32:51,935
We've got AccuAir air ride
system on this thing.
698
00:32:52,004 --> 00:32:53,403
Air ride management.
699
00:32:53,405 --> 00:32:55,439
It's got the dual tank setup
on it.
700
00:32:55,540 --> 00:32:57,274
It is ready to rock and roll.
701
00:32:57,276 --> 00:32:59,443
So, you're telling me
there's a Duramax under here?
702
00:32:59,544 --> 00:33:01,244
-That's exactly what
we're telling you.
-[Dave] Really?
703
00:33:01,313 --> 00:33:03,547
[Dave and Muscle exclaim] Ooh!
704
00:33:04,683 --> 00:33:07,551
We've already consigned
a vintage international truck
705
00:33:07,586 --> 00:33:09,386
with a diesel swap
from the 50s.
706
00:33:09,388 --> 00:33:12,689
So, this GMC is going
to be perfect
707
00:33:12,691 --> 00:33:15,525
for a whole new other era
of diesel lovers.
708
00:33:15,594 --> 00:33:17,027
We gotta drive it.
709
00:33:17,029 --> 00:33:18,628
-[Jason 1] Fire it up.
Let's give it a go.
-[Dave] let's go.
710
00:33:19,498 --> 00:33:20,397
[Muscle] Let's go.
711
00:33:21,633 --> 00:33:23,200
I love our job.
712
00:33:23,202 --> 00:33:25,002
It's a tough job
but somebody's gotta do it.
713
00:33:26,438 --> 00:33:29,406
-Ah-ha!
-Look at how big
this steering wheel is.
714
00:33:29,408 --> 00:33:30,907
[laughing]
715
00:33:35,647 --> 00:33:36,947
[Muscle] Oh, man.
716
00:33:37,049 --> 00:33:38,949
-Yo, this is cool.
-Yes.
717
00:33:39,017 --> 00:33:40,283
[Muscle] Yeah, buddy.
718
00:33:40,285 --> 00:33:42,853
-Bro, I will go through
the steering wheel.
-[laughs]
719
00:33:47,326 --> 00:33:49,192
[Muscle] Is this longer
than the...
720
00:33:49,194 --> 00:33:51,028
-[laughs]
-[Dave] Much longer than
the tow truck.
721
00:33:51,030 --> 00:33:52,129
...than the tow truck?
722
00:33:53,132 --> 00:33:54,231
It's bumpy.
723
00:33:58,103 --> 00:33:59,603
-Well, fellas.
-Well.
724
00:33:59,605 --> 00:34:01,805
-Auction worthy?
-What do you want
to get out of it?
725
00:34:02,541 --> 00:34:03,807
So, on this guy,
726
00:34:03,809 --> 00:34:06,109
I mean, just to make
our money back,
727
00:34:06,111 --> 00:34:07,778
we gotta be about $30,000.
728
00:34:07,780 --> 00:34:11,214
I think 30's probably a fair
price to the right bidder.
729
00:34:11,216 --> 00:34:13,550
But I also need you guys
to understand, and this is
a big one,
730
00:34:13,618 --> 00:34:14,985
this is a no reserve option.
731
00:34:14,987 --> 00:34:18,388
-So, that could go for
a 100,000...
-$10.
732
00:34:18,390 --> 00:34:20,490
-Or it could go for $10.
-[clicks tongue] Yeah.
733
00:34:20,492 --> 00:34:23,894
So, you're taking a big risk
here by leaving it in the
auction, is what I'm saying.
734
00:34:23,896 --> 00:34:25,495
Let's roll the dice,
let's see what happens.
735
00:34:25,497 --> 00:34:27,197
-I think it will bring
some good bidders out.
-I agree.
736
00:34:27,199 --> 00:34:29,299
Let's get it on the tow truck.
Let's get it out of here.
737
00:34:29,301 --> 00:34:30,600
-All right.
-Awesome.
738
00:34:45,951 --> 00:34:47,617
[Muscle] Perfect fit.
739
00:34:47,619 --> 00:34:48,518
[Dave] Like a glove.
740
00:34:49,188 --> 00:34:50,487
Thanks, bro.
741
00:34:50,489 --> 00:34:52,289
Probably couldn't have picked
a harder vehicle to test our
742
00:34:52,291 --> 00:34:54,057
new and improved bed
on our tow truck.
743
00:34:58,831 --> 00:35:00,664
It's heavy, it's long.
744
00:35:00,666 --> 00:35:03,800
[scatting] Pa, ra, pa, ra,
pa, pa, ra...
745
00:35:03,802 --> 00:35:06,103
Perfectly smooth.
746
00:35:06,105 --> 00:35:08,038
The bed is handling
the load perfectly
747
00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:10,941
because those lockers are
keeping the bed locked in.
748
00:35:11,042 --> 00:35:14,344
Stackers in line, we're not
rumbling off the cab anymore.
749
00:35:16,381 --> 00:35:20,283
I'm happy enough that
this tow truck is back
to its ass-kicking ways.
750
00:35:20,285 --> 00:35:23,587
I mean, it's towing perfectl
It looks phenomenal.
751
00:35:23,589 --> 00:35:26,189
This guy, is gonna be really
sad to see it go.
752
00:35:26,191 --> 00:35:28,425
Ah, man. I'm so impressed
with this tow truck.
753
00:35:31,797 --> 00:35:32,896
Sounds like an airplane.
754
00:35:34,099 --> 00:35:35,298
Wow.
755
00:35:35,300 --> 00:35:36,633
No way!
756
00:35:36,702 --> 00:35:38,602
Whoo-hoo!
757
00:35:38,604 --> 00:35:40,036
I'm totally assuming the sale.
758
00:35:40,038 --> 00:35:41,705
Let's test it.
Let's see what it can do.
759
00:35:44,343 --> 00:35:45,675
-This is how it's gonna
go down.
-What?
760
00:35:45,677 --> 00:35:47,577
You versus me.
761
00:35:47,579 --> 00:35:50,380
Whoever hangs on the longest,
is the winner.
762
00:35:50,382 --> 00:35:52,482
Bragging rights through
the whole shop,
763
00:35:52,484 --> 00:35:55,418
and the loser has to buy
breakfast burritos.
764
00:35:56,088 --> 00:35:57,787
All right, boys. Fire her up.
765
00:35:57,789 --> 00:35:59,356
-All right, let's do it.
-Fire her up.
766
00:36:03,195 --> 00:36:05,395
-You're going down.
-No, I'm going up.
767
00:36:05,397 --> 00:36:06,630
I will get you.
768
00:36:06,698 --> 00:36:08,498
Hey, I'm already at the car,
no fair.
769
00:36:08,500 --> 00:36:10,600
-[Muscle laughing]
-I've been hanging longer
than you have.
770
00:36:10,602 --> 00:36:14,538
-Look at that.
-[all laughing]
771
00:36:15,908 --> 00:36:17,307
Take me!
772
00:36:17,309 --> 00:36:20,043
-You're so heavy!
-[Muscle laughs]
773
00:36:20,045 --> 00:36:21,611
[groaning]
774
00:36:21,613 --> 00:36:23,480
[screaming]
775
00:36:23,482 --> 00:36:25,749
Yeah! [laughs]
776
00:36:27,419 --> 00:36:29,052
-You weigh so much.
-Yeah.
777
00:36:33,225 --> 00:36:36,493
It's time to find out if all
the money that we put into
the old baggage cart
778
00:36:36,495 --> 00:36:39,196
to turn it into, you know,
an actual airplane tug,
779
00:36:39,198 --> 00:36:40,197
is gonna pay off.
780
00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:42,899
But I have no fear
781
00:36:42,901 --> 00:36:44,834
because the guys in
the paint shop are working o
782
00:36:44,903 --> 00:36:47,204
getting it sandblasted,
repainted,
783
00:36:47,206 --> 00:36:50,173
so that it can be beautiful
and ready to present to
my buddy, Jason,
784
00:36:50,175 --> 00:36:51,541
at the flight school
next door.
785
00:36:51,643 --> 00:36:54,177
So, hopefully he buys it to
offset all the money that
786
00:36:54,179 --> 00:36:55,612
Diesel Dave burned
to the ground.
787
00:36:57,583 --> 00:37:00,817
Man, don't worry.
I don't want you to have
a meltdown.
788
00:37:06,091 --> 00:37:07,490
-Hey, Captain Clark.
-What up?
789
00:37:07,492 --> 00:37:09,059
You know, that thing
that I was kind of telling
you about.
790
00:37:09,127 --> 00:37:11,728
That idea that could
really help kind of,
791
00:37:11,830 --> 00:37:13,363
your school, your business.
792
00:37:13,365 --> 00:37:16,399
-I do remember you talking
about that.
-I kind of just went ahead and
793
00:37:17,436 --> 00:37:18,802
-got to work on it.
-Okay?
794
00:37:18,804 --> 00:37:20,203
-[Heavy D] You wanna see it?
-Yeah, let's see it.
795
00:37:21,940 --> 00:37:23,607
Uh, Harry and the Hendersons,
you got a copy?
796
00:37:23,609 --> 00:37:25,041
[on radio] Uh, Harry here.
797
00:37:25,143 --> 00:37:25,942
Come on in, Harry.
798
00:37:26,011 --> 00:37:28,311
[engine starts]
799
00:37:30,148 --> 00:37:32,115
What's that? That sounds
like an airplane.
800
00:37:33,285 --> 00:37:34,317
It's loud.
801
00:37:34,319 --> 00:37:36,486
What is that?
Is that a garbage truck?
802
00:37:36,488 --> 00:37:40,156
[Jason 2 and Heavy D laughing]
803
00:37:40,225 --> 00:37:42,292
-[Jason 2] No way!
-[Heavy D] Yeah.
804
00:37:42,294 --> 00:37:43,393
-No way.
-Yeah, buddy.
805
00:37:43,795 --> 00:37:45,328
Whoo-hoo!
806
00:37:45,430 --> 00:37:47,530
[all laughing]
807
00:37:47,633 --> 00:37:49,199
That looks so good.
808
00:37:53,805 --> 00:37:55,472
[Heavy D] This is
a Clark DT50.
809
00:37:55,474 --> 00:37:56,673
It was a baggage tug.
810
00:37:56,675 --> 00:37:59,442
However, they have extremely
tight steering,
811
00:37:59,478 --> 00:38:01,611
so they're also able
to push and pull aircrafts.
812
00:38:03,282 --> 00:38:04,481
Went through
the entire engine.
813
00:38:04,483 --> 00:38:06,783
Made sure it's
running perfect.
814
00:38:06,785 --> 00:38:08,685
Got the transmission,
topped off all the fluids.
815
00:38:08,687 --> 00:38:11,588
We did new wheels and tires,
big traction tires
in the back.
816
00:38:11,590 --> 00:38:12,889
[Jason 2] No way.
817
00:38:12,891 --> 00:38:15,191
Since these were originally
designed to kind just pull,
818
00:38:15,193 --> 00:38:18,595
we added a hitch on the front.
This is a solid steel, like,
half inch plate.
819
00:38:18,597 --> 00:38:19,896
-So...
-[Jason 2] Jeez.
820
00:38:19,898 --> 00:38:21,698
[Heavy D] With brand new
seats so it's comfortable
to drive,
821
00:38:21,700 --> 00:38:23,800
matched up your
exact color scheme,
822
00:38:23,802 --> 00:38:25,235
with your logo and everything.
823
00:38:25,337 --> 00:38:26,869
I'm just gonna come right out
and tell you.
824
00:38:26,871 --> 00:38:28,905
-[Jason 2] Okay?
-[Heavy D] I'm totally
assuming the sale right now.
825
00:38:28,907 --> 00:38:30,907
I like it. Let's test it.
Let's see what it can do.
826
00:38:31,777 --> 00:38:33,309
Up until today,
827
00:38:33,311 --> 00:38:36,279
this old baggage cart has
never actually moved
an airplane around.
828
00:38:36,281 --> 00:38:39,482
So, cross my fingers,
hoping everything works
the way that it's supposed to
829
00:38:39,484 --> 00:38:41,451
and Jason's happy with it.
830
00:38:41,519 --> 00:38:43,820
-Keep coming. There we go.
-[Jason 2] Nice.
831
00:38:45,590 --> 00:38:46,923
Look at that. It just
wants to go.
832
00:38:46,991 --> 00:38:48,324
That's crazy. You can't even--
833
00:38:48,326 --> 00:38:51,261
-I'm pressing on the brake
to slow it down.
-Yeah, exactly.
834
00:38:51,329 --> 00:38:53,396
Just see how maneuverable
it is.
835
00:38:53,398 --> 00:38:55,699
-Does it feel good?
-Yeah, it feels great.
836
00:38:55,701 --> 00:38:58,535
-I can probably tug a 747
with this thing. [laughs]
-You probably could.
837
00:38:59,037 --> 00:39:00,603
That's no joke.
838
00:39:00,605 --> 00:39:02,105
You're gonna miss the prop.
But slow down.
839
00:39:02,107 --> 00:39:04,474
-Turn nice and sharp.
-[Jason 2] Nice.
840
00:39:04,476 --> 00:39:07,210
Now, pull over here
841
00:39:07,212 --> 00:39:09,145
-and we'll try
the reverse job.
-All right.
842
00:39:10,215 --> 00:39:12,482
-Are you impressed yet?
-I am impressed.
843
00:39:12,484 --> 00:39:15,585
Then the real test was
to unhook, flip around,
844
00:39:15,587 --> 00:39:18,254
and then push the airplane
with the tug.
845
00:39:19,891 --> 00:39:22,492
-All right. This is
the important part.
-This is the important part.
846
00:39:22,494 --> 00:39:26,096
When you're actually pushing
an airplane, it's very dynamic
in your movements.
847
00:39:26,098 --> 00:39:28,598
And the tug needs to be
very easily maneuvered.
848
00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:32,035
Just a simple wing tip tap
could cost me thousands
of dollars.
849
00:39:32,104 --> 00:39:33,703
-Moment of truth.
-Moment of truth.
850
00:39:35,707 --> 00:39:37,240
[Heavy D] Make us proud,
Jason.
851
00:39:38,610 --> 00:39:40,410
[Jason 2] Nice!
852
00:39:40,412 --> 00:39:42,379
-[Heavy D] I like it.
-[Jason 2] Look at how much
I can turn with that...
853
00:39:42,381 --> 00:39:45,348
-Quite impressed, yeah.
-Got good traction.
854
00:39:45,450 --> 00:39:48,218
-Straight on back.
Come on back. Come on back.
-Come on back.
855
00:39:49,054 --> 00:39:50,253
Nice.
856
00:39:50,321 --> 00:39:51,321
I like it.
857
00:39:52,591 --> 00:39:53,890
[Heavy D] Like a glove.
858
00:39:54,693 --> 00:39:56,126
I mean, look at that.
You're in.
859
00:39:56,995 --> 00:39:58,061
-Easy.
-Kill her, shut it down.
860
00:39:58,530 --> 00:40:00,296
[Jason 2 laughs]
861
00:40:00,298 --> 00:40:04,434
That was actually one of
the easiest pushes I've had
on a tug before.
862
00:40:04,536 --> 00:40:07,504
So, now the next step is
to see how serious Jason is
about buying it.
863
00:40:07,506 --> 00:40:09,205
Overall, what are your
thoughts on it?
864
00:40:09,207 --> 00:40:11,508
All right. So, it does
everything that I want it
to do.
865
00:40:12,310 --> 00:40:13,510
What do you want for it?
866
00:40:13,512 --> 00:40:16,946
How close can you get to like,
17.5?
867
00:40:17,048 --> 00:40:18,214
Honestly, I...
868
00:40:18,984 --> 00:40:20,483
I would do 12.
869
00:40:20,485 --> 00:40:22,051
So, you know where
that puts us, right?
870
00:40:22,053 --> 00:40:23,119
We're gonna split
the difference.
871
00:40:23,121 --> 00:40:24,621
We're gonna wind up
right at 15.
872
00:40:27,325 --> 00:40:28,324
15 it is.
873
00:40:30,362 --> 00:40:33,096
15 grand for this airport tug
is huge.
874
00:40:33,098 --> 00:40:35,398
I just wish Red Beard were
here to see this deal
going down.
875
00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:37,233
Where is Red Beard?
876
00:40:37,235 --> 00:40:41,304
[Heavy D] He's probably
hiding somewhere from my
inevitable, "I told you so.
877
00:40:41,306 --> 00:40:44,808
Because 15 grand
is a fantastic, like,
878
00:40:44,810 --> 00:40:46,643
that's a good deal for us
to sell that,
879
00:40:46,711 --> 00:40:48,178
great deal for Jason.
880
00:40:48,180 --> 00:40:51,181
And it gave us a bunch of
cashflow to keep
the auction builds on track.
881
00:40:51,183 --> 00:40:53,550
Maybe even two more builds.
882
00:40:53,618 --> 00:40:55,785
-So what are we getting next?
-You're not getting anything.
883
00:40:55,787 --> 00:40:57,520
-Come on.
I'll wear oven mitts.
-No.
884
00:40:59,791 --> 00:41:02,425
[man] It's an old 50s Chevy
885
00:41:02,494 --> 00:41:04,394
Scared as to what we might
possibly find.
886
00:41:04,396 --> 00:41:05,695
Is that really not turning?
887
00:41:06,598 --> 00:41:09,199
2021 Ram TRX.
888
00:41:09,201 --> 00:41:11,367
-[Muscle] How many horses?
-[Dave] 702.
889
00:41:11,369 --> 00:41:12,702
Never been off road.
890
00:41:12,704 --> 00:41:14,504
-You've never been off road?
-Awesome. [laughs] No!
891
00:41:14,506 --> 00:41:15,605
[Dave] And you're driving?
892
00:41:15,607 --> 00:41:17,106
THe moment I've been
waiting for a long time.
893
00:41:17,108 --> 00:41:20,310
I love this. Whoo hoo hoo!
