1
00:00:01,467 --> 00:00:02,767
Me and Bill are gonna have
a pull-up competition.
2
00:00:02,767 --> 00:00:05,066
The 1931
Ford Maxwell House truck
3
00:00:05,066 --> 00:00:06,567
turned out really,
really cool.
4
00:00:06,567 --> 00:00:09,000
The challenge
is making a trailer
5
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:10,667
match the coolness
of the truck.
6
00:00:10,667 --> 00:00:11,700
Cool, man.
7
00:00:11,700 --> 00:00:14,567
We're pretty much gonna build
a rolling coffee shop.
8
00:00:14,567 --> 00:00:16,667
It's gonna be long.
9
00:00:16,667 --> 00:00:18,700
We have a couple builds
that are gonna be dropped off
10
00:00:18,700 --> 00:00:20,467
this week
that I'm super excited about.
11
00:00:20,467 --> 00:00:23,467
1953 Chevy ice cream truck.
12
00:00:23,467 --> 00:00:26,166
Definitely not much
going on there, for sure.
13
00:00:26,166 --> 00:00:28,500
2012 CTS wagon.
14
00:00:28,500 --> 00:00:30,567
So you're saying
take the whole front end off
15
00:00:30,567 --> 00:00:32,367
-and put a new one on.
-Yeah.
16
00:00:32,367 --> 00:00:33,867
-One of one.
-[Bill] As a business owner,
17
00:00:33,867 --> 00:00:35,867
I know I gotta keep
them bays full.
18
00:00:35,867 --> 00:00:37,600
Tack this one real quick.
19
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:40,667
-Oh, my God. Man,
what a combination.
-[laughing]
20
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:45,867
[Bill] I'm Bill Carlton.
21
00:00:45,867 --> 00:00:49,000
I built my first truck
when I was 16.
22
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:51,667
And ever since, me and my guys
have been out here
23
00:00:51,667 --> 00:00:52,967
creating with our hands.
24
00:00:55,367 --> 00:00:58,867
Building the biggest, lowest,
baddest custom trucks
25
00:00:58,867 --> 00:01:00,166
and cars in the game.
26
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,567
People don't come here
for what they need.
27
00:01:04,567 --> 00:01:06,834
They come here
for what they want.
28
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:11,433
This is Texas Metal.
29
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:19,467
You said we were shopping
for trailers.
30
00:01:19,467 --> 00:01:21,066
-[Bill] Yeah.
-Look at the trailer land.
31
00:01:21,066 --> 00:01:22,900
-Yeah.
-Well, they got a whole lot
32
00:01:22,900 --> 00:01:24,934
-to choose from, for sure.
-[laughs]
33
00:01:26,767 --> 00:01:28,266
You know,
after a whole lot of work,
34
00:01:28,266 --> 00:01:31,667
we got the Maxwell House truck
looking really, really good.
35
00:01:31,667 --> 00:01:35,900
But the problem is they've
sent us a huge grinder,
36
00:01:35,900 --> 00:01:37,600
a huge roaster.
37
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:39,500
I mean, there's not enough
room in the truck
38
00:01:39,500 --> 00:01:41,200
to pack all this stuff.
39
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:42,967
So to save a lot of time,
40
00:01:42,967 --> 00:01:45,066
I'm out here
at Nationwide Trailers.
41
00:01:45,066 --> 00:01:46,767
-[Rudy] Bill,
how's it going?
-Hey, man.
42
00:01:46,767 --> 00:01:48,100
-Carlos. Nice to meet you.
-How's it going?
43
00:01:48,100 --> 00:01:50,200
Hopefully they have
something in their lot
44
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,467
that we can use
and to build off of.
45
00:01:52,467 --> 00:01:54,166
How can we help you?
I see you looking around.
46
00:01:54,166 --> 00:01:56,166
[Bill] Man, we got a
custom build in the shop,
47
00:01:56,166 --> 00:01:58,066
a 1931 Ford.
48
00:01:58,066 --> 00:02:00,367
-It's for Maxwell House.
-The coffee company?
49
00:02:00,367 --> 00:02:01,700
-Yeah.
-Oh, sweet.
50
00:02:01,700 --> 00:02:03,767
[Bill] We're building a real,
real cool truck.
51
00:02:03,767 --> 00:02:06,367
We put a diesel engine in it,
of course lowered it
52
00:02:06,367 --> 00:02:07,967
with new wheels and tires.
53
00:02:07,967 --> 00:02:10,467
It's a dually
with a stake bed on it.
54
00:02:10,467 --> 00:02:13,600
But, you know, the problem is
they sent all this equipment
55
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:15,967
to stick in
the back of the bed,
56
00:02:15,967 --> 00:02:17,166
but it's definitely
not gonna fit.
57
00:02:17,166 --> 00:02:19,600
-It's gonna be
way too cramped.
-Okay.
58
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,667
So solution is finding
that right trailer
59
00:02:22,667 --> 00:02:24,667
that we can put
all that equipment in it,
60
00:02:24,667 --> 00:02:26,367
and we need it to match,
you know,
61
00:02:26,367 --> 00:02:29,367
one uniform, cool,
custom truck and trailer
62
00:02:29,367 --> 00:02:31,900
when it's going down the road
for different events.
63
00:02:31,900 --> 00:02:33,567
Old Max with the new Max
64
00:02:33,567 --> 00:02:34,900
it'll make it look like that.
65
00:02:34,900 --> 00:02:36,300
-Let me show you
a couple trailers?
-[both] Yeah.
66
00:02:36,300 --> 00:02:37,700
-Awesome.
-Cool.
67
00:02:39,100 --> 00:02:41,600
[Rudy] Uh, we have
literally thousands
of different trailers
68
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:42,567
that we sell.
69
00:02:42,567 --> 00:02:43,867
I figured if we look around
long enough,
70
00:02:43,867 --> 00:02:45,000
we'll find something
that works for them.
71
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:46,400
I got this
little utility trailer here,
72
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:48,567
fourteen foot to the back,
73
00:02:48,567 --> 00:02:51,500
two 3,500 pound axles
and aluminum fenders.
74
00:02:51,500 --> 00:02:54,600
I think we need a higher deck
and wider.
75
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:56,467
Basically, we're gonna build
the trailer out
76
00:02:56,467 --> 00:02:58,066
so it matches the truck.
77
00:02:58,066 --> 00:03:00,100
So I need the deck height
about the same
78
00:03:00,100 --> 00:03:02,266
because we're gonna build
stake pockets around it
79
00:03:02,266 --> 00:03:03,967
and no rails on it.
80
00:03:03,967 --> 00:03:05,500
I think we got something
over here.
81
00:03:05,500 --> 00:03:08,100
The key to this build
is finding the right trailer,
82
00:03:08,100 --> 00:03:10,367
the right height,
the right length,
83
00:03:10,367 --> 00:03:12,400
you know, just to tie
everything in together.
84
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:13,600
And we do have a TA.
85
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,367
That one tilts up and down.
[chuckles]
86
00:03:16,367 --> 00:03:17,934
[Carlos]
I think they would have
too much fun with that one.
87
00:03:18,967 --> 00:03:20,667
This is a great height, man.
88
00:03:20,667 --> 00:03:23,867
This is gonna match the deck
on the truck itself.
89
00:03:23,867 --> 00:03:26,367
You know, of course, this is
too long for what we need.
90
00:03:26,367 --> 00:03:28,767
I got a 16 footer
on the other side of the yard.
91
00:03:28,767 --> 00:03:29,934
Do you think that'd be better?
92
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:31,734
[both] Let's check it out.
93
00:03:33,767 --> 00:03:35,500
[Rudy] I think this is
what you're looking for.
94
00:03:35,500 --> 00:03:39,066
Sixteen foot, 102 inches wide
with two 7K axles.
95
00:03:39,066 --> 00:03:41,266
So if we only put
2,000 pounds on it,
96
00:03:41,266 --> 00:03:42,567
it's gonna be super bouncy.
97
00:03:42,567 --> 00:03:43,767
So that's what's great
about these, they're not.
98
00:03:43,767 --> 00:03:45,600
I've pulled these
before personally,
99
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:47,367
and then they ride
very, very smooth.
100
00:03:47,367 --> 00:03:49,900
Sixteen foot
is absolutely what we need.
101
00:03:49,900 --> 00:03:51,567
I mean, this is double
the length of the truck,
102
00:03:51,567 --> 00:03:53,600
so it's not too long
103
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,500
it's gonna be
totally out of proportion.
104
00:03:55,500 --> 00:03:57,467
Already has spots
for the stake pockets,
105
00:03:57,467 --> 00:03:59,266
so you can just build
right off of that
106
00:03:59,266 --> 00:04:01,867
and make it match
the height of the truck.
107
00:04:01,867 --> 00:04:03,767
-This one will work.
-All right.
108
00:04:03,767 --> 00:04:05,266
Are you ready
to do some paperwork?
109
00:04:05,266 --> 00:04:06,200
Let's make it happen.
110
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:07,567
You brought the duffel bag?
111
00:04:07,567 --> 00:04:09,900
-Yeah.
-[laughs]
112
00:04:09,900 --> 00:04:12,467
You know, this one right here
is absolutely perfect.
113
00:04:12,467 --> 00:04:15,767
The length that it has
is exactly what we need.
114
00:04:15,767 --> 00:04:17,667
Sixteen feet long,
eight foot wide
115
00:04:17,667 --> 00:04:19,634
is exactly
what we're looking for.
116
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:25,266
We can build off of this
117
00:04:25,266 --> 00:04:27,934
and make it match
the truck perfectly.
118
00:04:29,166 --> 00:04:31,734
I'm gonna get this
back to the shop
and get going on it.
119
00:04:46,367 --> 00:04:48,567
You know, some projects
are in and out.
120
00:04:48,567 --> 00:04:51,934
Some projects, you know,
they take some figuring out.
121
00:04:53,367 --> 00:04:56,000
You know,
old Max just turned out
really, really cool.
122
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,767
Now, the challenge
is making a trailer
123
00:04:58,767 --> 00:05:01,166
match the coolness
of the truck, you know,
124
00:05:01,166 --> 00:05:03,266
making it one cohesive unit,
you know,
125
00:05:03,266 --> 00:05:05,700
so it doesn't look mismatched.
126
00:05:05,700 --> 00:05:08,166
That's the whole challenge
of this project.
127
00:05:08,166 --> 00:05:09,767
You know, it's gonna take
a lot of time,
128
00:05:09,767 --> 00:05:12,166
a lot of creativity,
a lot of talent,
129
00:05:12,166 --> 00:05:15,367
but at the end,
we can hook this up
to old Max,
130
00:05:15,367 --> 00:05:17,867
take it wherever,
it's gonna draw a crowd,
131
00:05:17,867 --> 00:05:20,166
and, you know,
it's not only gonna look good,
132
00:05:20,166 --> 00:05:22,667
they're gonna have
a functioning coffee bar
behind old Max.
133
00:05:23,367 --> 00:05:24,934
[whistles]
134
00:05:32,700 --> 00:05:34,266
[Ryan] I like your trailer.
135
00:05:34,266 --> 00:05:36,667
-[Bill] Mmm-hmm.
-That's a heavy-duty trailer.
136
00:05:36,667 --> 00:05:38,066
[Bill] It is.
137
00:05:38,066 --> 00:05:40,367
Just got finished up
with the Maxwell House truck,
138
00:05:40,367 --> 00:05:42,367
and I love how it turned out,
139
00:05:42,367 --> 00:05:44,567
but, you know,
the only issue we have,
140
00:05:44,567 --> 00:05:47,400
that huge antique roaster
that they sent,
141
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:49,500
definitely not fitting
in the back of that truck.
142
00:05:49,500 --> 00:05:52,700
Me and Carlos just got back
with this to solve that issue,
143
00:05:52,700 --> 00:05:55,800
to put everything
that Maxwell House wanted
144
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:58,567
in the back of the truck
on this trailer
145
00:05:58,567 --> 00:06:00,066
with way more room.
146
00:06:00,066 --> 00:06:02,000
I mean,
we're pretty much gonna build
147
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,367
a rolling coffee shop on this.
148
00:06:04,367 --> 00:06:09,166
So, of course, that big,
huge roaster is centerpiece.
149
00:06:09,166 --> 00:06:10,166
So around that,
150
00:06:10,166 --> 00:06:11,967
we'll configure
everything else
151
00:06:11,967 --> 00:06:13,200
that's in the coffee shop,
right?
152
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:15,567
Seating area
all along the back,
153
00:06:15,567 --> 00:06:19,200
and, of course, you have
to wash, prep, you know,
154
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,867
so we'll have
a countertop here, sink in it,
155
00:06:22,867 --> 00:06:24,266
so you can do everything
you need to do
156
00:06:24,266 --> 00:06:25,600
when it comes to that, right?
157
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:29,867
Potable water tank,
gray tank, generator.
158
00:06:29,867 --> 00:06:33,900
I mean, everything you need
to make, present,
159
00:06:33,900 --> 00:06:35,367
and to clean up.
160
00:06:35,367 --> 00:06:37,700
That's kind of cool.
So it'd be like all just open,
161
00:06:37,700 --> 00:06:40,467
outdoorsy,
coffee shop style deal,
162
00:06:40,467 --> 00:06:43,100
just kind of
sun beating down on you.
163
00:06:43,100 --> 00:06:44,033
Not so much, man.
164
00:06:44,033 --> 00:06:46,900
We need to build a canopy
over the top, right?
165
00:06:46,900 --> 00:06:48,100
[Dustin] Yeah.
166
00:06:48,100 --> 00:06:50,000
[Bill] And not just a roof.
167
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,266
I want to build it
so it closes up,
168
00:06:52,266 --> 00:06:54,867
so at night,
they can lock everything up,
169
00:06:54,867 --> 00:06:58,066
and in the daytime,
they can open it up,
170
00:06:58,066 --> 00:07:00,066
so we'll actuate the sides.
171
00:07:00,066 --> 00:07:01,300
[Dustin] Yeah.
172
00:07:01,300 --> 00:07:03,367
So when you get
to where you're going,
you can open it up,
173
00:07:03,367 --> 00:07:05,567
and we'll have more shade
all the way around it also.
174
00:07:05,567 --> 00:07:06,567
-Good idea.
-Yeah.
175
00:07:06,567 --> 00:07:08,100
-It'll be real cool.
-Yeah, that'll be nice.
176
00:07:08,100 --> 00:07:10,367
So we're gonna have
the big roaster
right in the middle,
177
00:07:10,367 --> 00:07:11,667
over the axle, I assume?
178
00:07:11,667 --> 00:07:15,367
Gonna have some benches,
countertop, some sinks,
179
00:07:15,367 --> 00:07:17,200
some freshwater, gray water.
180
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:18,567
[Bill] And the canopy.
181
00:07:18,567 --> 00:07:19,634
Oh, yeah, yeah.
182
00:07:20,567 --> 00:07:22,100
-We got it.
-[laughs]
183
00:07:22,100 --> 00:07:23,867
You might want
to write it down.
184
00:07:23,867 --> 00:07:24,867
Yeah, we should probably
write it down.
185
00:07:24,867 --> 00:07:26,066
-Probably should.
-Yeah, yeah.
186
00:07:26,066 --> 00:07:28,767
[engine sputtering]
187
00:07:39,066 --> 00:07:40,867
Of course, you know,
well-built trailer,
188
00:07:40,867 --> 00:07:43,867
it's definitely gonna do
what we need to do,
189
00:07:43,867 --> 00:07:45,467
but first things first,
190
00:07:45,467 --> 00:07:47,467
we got to start chopping it up
a little bit
191
00:07:47,467 --> 00:07:50,467
to whittle down to the part
that we actually need.
192
00:07:50,467 --> 00:07:53,000
So we're gonna get rid of
a couple pieces off the back.
193
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,000
Took the wheels off
just to get it lower,
194
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:56,567
easier to work with
so you don't have
195
00:07:56,567 --> 00:07:58,133
to step up and down
all day long.
196
00:07:58,400 --> 00:07:59,467
And, uh,
197
00:07:59,467 --> 00:08:00,767
then we're gonna
get going on it.
198
00:08:04,767 --> 00:08:07,000
We're gonna cut off
the back rail here
199
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:08,200
on the rear of the trailer
200
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,200
because it's not gonna be
needed anymore
201
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:11,567
and it will not be used.
202
00:08:12,166 --> 00:08:13,533
Watch your toes.
203
00:08:33,266 --> 00:08:35,333
Yeah, I need to cut it
right here.
204
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:39,467
I'm hitting the lathe.
205
00:08:39,467 --> 00:08:43,567
We're gonna have to move
the building over a little bit
206
00:08:43,567 --> 00:08:45,400
until we can move the lathe
over a little bit,
207
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:46,700
and then we'll be able
to cut it.
208
00:08:46,700 --> 00:08:48,567
So give me a couple days.
209
00:08:56,300 --> 00:08:58,266
[Ryan]
So what I'm cutting here
is some eighth inch
210
00:08:58,266 --> 00:08:59,900
four-by-four square tubing.
211
00:08:59,900 --> 00:09:02,333
These are gonna be
our uprights for our trailer.
212
00:09:03,967 --> 00:09:06,333
This is what everything is
going to be built off of.
213
00:09:10,367 --> 00:09:12,900
This is gonna be our main
structure for our canopy,
214
00:09:12,900 --> 00:09:14,100
for our entry way.
215
00:09:14,100 --> 00:09:17,100
We're gonna build
our back wall off of this.
216
00:09:17,100 --> 00:09:19,934
Our countertops,
literally everything.
217
00:09:21,767 --> 00:09:23,133
Nice.
218
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,233
We'll make six of these.
219
00:09:26,767 --> 00:09:28,100
Four of them will be the same.
220
00:09:28,100 --> 00:09:29,266
Two of them will be
slightly different.
221
00:09:29,266 --> 00:09:31,166
They're gonna be
in a different spot.
222
00:09:34,367 --> 00:09:35,667
Get a couple of nasty rags
223
00:09:35,667 --> 00:09:36,634
and just started
cleaning them.
224
00:09:36,634 --> 00:09:39,000
[Dustin]
Oh, yeah, these things
are all hurled up.
225
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,800
All right, these two here
are for the center.
226
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:43,667
They're 7'2".
227
00:09:43,667 --> 00:09:46,000
The four are 7'6"
for the corners.
228
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:49,066
[Dustin] Oh, okay, okay,
yeah, because it goes
up over the fenders.
229
00:09:49,066 --> 00:09:50,767
-Okay.
-[Ryan] Mmm-hmm.
230
00:09:50,767 --> 00:09:52,567
Probably end up cutting
that rail out, huh?
231
00:09:52,567 --> 00:09:55,467
No, we're gonna French it in
and around the rail.
232
00:09:55,467 --> 00:09:56,967
[Dustin] Just slide it down
and right on there?
233
00:09:56,967 --> 00:09:59,100
[Ryan] Yeah,
we're just gonna cut it.
234
00:09:59,100 --> 00:10:02,500
[Ryan]
So once we French the corners
of these into the trailer,
235
00:10:02,500 --> 00:10:04,500
instead of torching
the side of the trailer,
236
00:10:04,500 --> 00:10:05,867
we're just
setting these on top
237
00:10:05,867 --> 00:10:07,767
and only getting a weld
on the base.
238
00:10:07,767 --> 00:10:12,266
We want to get a weld
all the way around
every corner.
239
00:10:12,266 --> 00:10:15,734
So we're gonna go down
six inches on this,
cut two inches out.
240
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:17,867
[grunts]
241
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:21,467
[Ryan] French it to the corner
and tack it.
242
00:10:21,467 --> 00:10:22,834
I'll let you know when.
243
00:10:24,100 --> 00:10:26,000
Yeah, right there.
244
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,000
Get every post up,
make sure everything's
245
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:29,467
square, level, true,
246
00:10:29,467 --> 00:10:31,634
and just bam, bam, bam,
knock them all out.
247
00:10:33,066 --> 00:10:34,767
I think if I put some pressure
on it like that,
248
00:10:34,767 --> 00:10:37,266
make it touch,
then we'll be good.
249
00:10:47,166 --> 00:10:49,066
It's straight.
Just tack this one real quick.
250
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:55,166
Man, we got a huge start.
251
00:10:55,166 --> 00:10:56,467
We got our six posts up.
252
00:10:56,467 --> 00:10:57,967
Now we're just gonna
start connecting
253
00:10:57,967 --> 00:10:59,200
all the posts together,
254
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,467
so we'll have the perimeter
right around the top
255
00:11:01,467 --> 00:11:03,166
so we can start building
the roof right off of that.
256
00:11:05,367 --> 00:11:06,834
Jobs like this
are a lot of fun.
257
00:11:07,567 --> 00:11:09,100
You gonna help me?
258
00:11:09,100 --> 00:11:10,800
-[Bill] Yeah.
-Put a tack on that thing.
259
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:12,000
[Bill] Man,
it's always cool to not,
260
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,467
you know,
have that repetitious day,
261
00:11:14,467 --> 00:11:17,300
you know, the day in
and day out of the
same old, same old.
262
00:11:17,300 --> 00:11:19,367
You know, I love jobs
like this where we can get in
263
00:11:19,367 --> 00:11:22,567
and start creating and have
that instant gratification
264
00:11:22,567 --> 00:11:25,000
where you start putting
the pieces together
265
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:26,567
and shoot,
a couple hours later,
266
00:11:26,567 --> 00:11:30,400
you got something to look at,
you know, other than...
267
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,000
Man, that's why
I quit pipe welding.
268
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:36,567
All that repetitious,
same old, same exact thing
every day.
269
00:11:36,567 --> 00:11:37,867
Just get yours kinda close
270
00:11:37,867 --> 00:11:39,367
and just hold it there
and don't move.
271
00:11:39,367 --> 00:11:41,667
You can do electrical
all day long
272
00:11:41,667 --> 00:11:43,000
and still not fix the problem
273
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:44,934
and just
make you go home angry.
274
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:46,800
[both chuckle]
275
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:48,934
-Yeah, this is way cooler.
-Yeah.
276
00:11:56,367 --> 00:11:58,266
[Bill] What is this again?
277
00:11:58,266 --> 00:12:00,100
[Ryan] Should be 93
and a quarter.
278
00:12:00,100 --> 00:12:00,967
No, outside.
279
00:12:00,967 --> 00:12:02,900
-[Ryan] You want to do
the outside?
-Yeah.
280
00:12:02,900 --> 00:12:05,166
Ninety seven and a quarter.
281
00:12:05,166 --> 00:12:07,867
It's a super busy time
at Ekstensive right now,
282
00:12:07,867 --> 00:12:09,500
finishing up
some really big builds
283
00:12:09,500 --> 00:12:11,266
with a ton of hours in them.
284
00:12:11,266 --> 00:12:13,500
[Ryan] All right, you can
go ahead and cut
285
00:12:13,500 --> 00:12:14,533
both of them
286
00:12:14,533 --> 00:12:17,867
Old Max, the '31 Ford,
along with the coffee trailer
287
00:12:17,867 --> 00:12:19,166
that we have
to build for it now.
288
00:12:19,166 --> 00:12:23,066
The '49 Ford, the GTO,
289
00:12:23,066 --> 00:12:24,100
and something really cool
290
00:12:24,100 --> 00:12:25,867
for someone
you definitely heard of.
291
00:12:27,567 --> 00:12:29,867
As cool as that is,
as a business owner,
292
00:12:29,867 --> 00:12:31,333
I know I got to keep
them bays full.
293
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,600
So I have to get those
next builds all lined up
294
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:36,533
to go in
as soon as we're done.
295
00:12:39,166 --> 00:12:40,667
We have a couple builds
that are gonna be
296
00:12:40,667 --> 00:12:43,066
dropped off this week
that I'm super excited about.
297
00:12:47,367 --> 00:12:48,467
That's a cool wagon, man.
298
00:12:48,467 --> 00:12:50,100
[Deallen] Yes, sir.
That's my baby.
299
00:12:50,100 --> 00:12:53,166
[Bill]
Oh, CTS, man, you don't see
these on the road anymore.
300
00:12:53,166 --> 00:12:55,667
[Deallen] No, this is very,
very, very seldom.
301
00:12:55,667 --> 00:12:57,100
Right. Very few.
302
00:12:57,100 --> 00:13:00,333
I've only seen a few
on the road... ever.
303
00:13:02,166 --> 00:13:03,300
[Deallen] So I came down
to Ekstensive to get
304
00:13:03,300 --> 00:13:06,800
my 2012 CTS wagon up to date.
305
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:07,934
Giving it
a second chance at life.
306
00:13:08,667 --> 00:13:12,166
I have owned the car
for 12 years,
307
00:13:12,166 --> 00:13:16,667
and the condition
it's in right now
is a little beat up.
308
00:13:16,667 --> 00:13:18,900
I know they ain't made these
in quite some time, huh?
309
00:13:18,900 --> 00:13:21,200
-Almost 10 years.
-Oh, okay. Yeah.
310
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:22,300
Well, no wonder I don't
see them on the road
311
00:13:22,300 --> 00:13:23,667
-that much, right?
-Exactly. Exactly.
312
00:13:23,667 --> 00:13:25,467
I know they're still
highly sought after
313
00:13:25,467 --> 00:13:28,100
-because it's unique,
you know?
-Yeah, yeah.
314
00:13:28,100 --> 00:13:29,800
I see you got a couple
of little paint issues.
315
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:31,066
Are we just freshening up
316
00:13:31,066 --> 00:13:34,467
or you just wanna...
come with it?
317
00:13:34,467 --> 00:13:36,266
I want to come with it
all the way.
318
00:13:36,266 --> 00:13:37,767
-I love hearing that.
-Okay.
319
00:13:37,767 --> 00:13:38,867
And I got a couple ideas.
320
00:13:38,867 --> 00:13:41,400
You know,
I've seen it rolling in,
and, man, I just...
321
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:44,967
I definitely see, you know,
of course, wheels and tires.
322
00:13:44,967 --> 00:13:45,834
[Deallen]
For sure. That's sick.
323
00:13:45,834 --> 00:13:48,800
And you already know
what we're known for
324
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:49,767
is air suspension.
325
00:13:49,767 --> 00:13:52,200
-We got to drop it
on the ground.
-Yeah. Got to.
326
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:54,200
-But if we're coming with it,
-[Deallen] Mmm-hmm.
327
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:58,467
I know they don't make these
cars in a brand-new version,
328
00:13:58,467 --> 00:14:03,667
-and I know you can still get
a new CTS car.
-Yeah. Yeah.
329
00:14:03,667 --> 00:14:06,000
What do you think about
taking that whole front end
330
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,367
and grafting it
to the front of this car?
331
00:14:08,367 --> 00:14:14,867
So basically, this'll look
like a 2024 CTS wagon.
332
00:14:14,867 --> 00:14:18,567
Bill, so you're saying
take my whole front end off...
333
00:14:18,567 --> 00:14:20,100
Chop it off.
334
00:14:20,100 --> 00:14:22,000
-...and put a new one on.
-Yeah.
335
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:23,066
We can do that, Bill?
336
00:14:23,066 --> 00:14:24,600
Man, if we're going for it,
337
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:26,567
-that'd be the way
to do it, right?
-Yeah. Yeah.
338
00:14:26,567 --> 00:14:29,967
I mean, that way,
you're rolling around
in what looks like
339
00:14:29,967 --> 00:14:32,500
a brand-new wagon
that nobody else has.
340
00:14:32,500 --> 00:14:34,200
No. That'll be a one-on-one,
for sure.
341
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:37,867
Bill's ideas goes way beyond
what I was thinking
342
00:14:37,867 --> 00:14:39,000
I was coming here for.
343
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:43,367
So just to think about that
new CTS front end on a wagon,
344
00:14:43,367 --> 00:14:44,867
it blows my mind.
345
00:14:44,867 --> 00:14:45,967
Yeah, we cut it, you know,
346
00:14:45,967 --> 00:14:49,066
-right from the
fender gap forward.
-Okay.
347
00:14:49,066 --> 00:14:50,166
We'll cut it right down there
348
00:14:50,166 --> 00:14:52,166
and just graft that
brand-new front end
349
00:14:52,166 --> 00:14:54,300
right to the whole fender.
350
00:14:54,300 --> 00:14:57,967
So all the body line,
the door gap
and everything's 100%.
351
00:14:57,967 --> 00:15:00,100
It'll look like it came
from the factory, like...
352
00:15:00,100 --> 00:15:01,867
That'll look
really cool, Bill.
353
00:15:01,867 --> 00:15:03,500
What is that, the V6?
354
00:15:03,500 --> 00:15:05,467
-Yeah, that's a V6, Bill.
-What is that, a...
355
00:15:05,467 --> 00:15:06,867
3.6 liter.
356
00:15:06,867 --> 00:15:08,600
[Bill] That's typical
for this car, right?
357
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,667
-Just the CTS,
not the CTS-V.
-[Deallen] Yeah.
358
00:15:11,667 --> 00:15:14,000
I wanted the V, but,
you know, 10 years ago,
359
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:15,900
-I couldn't afford it.
-No, I totally get that.
360
00:15:15,900 --> 00:15:19,567
But, you know, since we've got
the whole front end gone
361
00:15:19,567 --> 00:15:21,567
-and removed from the car...
-[Deallen] Okay.
362
00:15:21,567 --> 00:15:24,400
...it'd be super easy
to pull that engine out.
363
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:28,767
And replace it, you know,
with maybe a supercharged 6.2.
364
00:15:28,767 --> 00:15:30,900
-Oh, yeah, dude.
-The LT4 in this,
365
00:15:30,900 --> 00:15:32,700
you know, over 600 horsepower.
366
00:15:32,700 --> 00:15:34,567
-Oh, my God.
-[laughing]
367
00:15:34,567 --> 00:15:36,467
-What do you think about that?
-Oh, yeah, I'm with it.
368
00:15:36,467 --> 00:15:39,100
I mean, you're talking about
a tire shredder.
369
00:15:39,100 --> 00:15:40,567
Yes. Now we're talking--
370
00:15:40,567 --> 00:15:44,967
I mean, that's basically
a brand-new CTS-V wagon.
371
00:15:44,967 --> 00:15:46,567
-Now we're talking--
-That you can't get anywhere.
372
00:15:46,567 --> 00:15:47,567
One-of-one.
373
00:15:47,567 --> 00:15:49,133
-That's it, man.
-Yes, sir.
374
00:16:02,166 --> 00:16:04,600
[Bill]
Yeah, it has to be right
at the end of the tubing.
375
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:05,634
So...
376
00:16:06,166 --> 00:16:07,934
I actually like that, right?
377
00:16:09,500 --> 00:16:11,667
I want a curved roof
on the coffee trailer.
378
00:16:11,667 --> 00:16:14,000
That way to kind of match
the roof of the truck,
379
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:16,166
and then we can put
a canvas over it.
380
00:16:16,166 --> 00:16:17,500
First up, we're gonna
have to roll
381
00:16:17,500 --> 00:16:19,133
all those square tubes.
382
00:16:20,166 --> 00:16:21,467
[Ryan] All right, we got
some inch and a half.
383
00:16:21,467 --> 00:16:24,266
This is gonna be
for our top canopy,
384
00:16:24,266 --> 00:16:28,500
and this is gonna hold
whatever we decide
to put up there.
385
00:16:28,500 --> 00:16:29,767
Rolled a couple of them
so far,
386
00:16:29,767 --> 00:16:31,266
we're gonna keep on rolling.
387
00:16:38,767 --> 00:16:40,867
So we got our inch and a half
square tubing rolled
388
00:16:40,867 --> 00:16:42,100
in a rolled bender,
389
00:16:42,100 --> 00:16:44,467
and it looks like we're
wasting a lot of material,
390
00:16:44,467 --> 00:16:47,300
but when you roll that
through the rolled bender,
391
00:16:47,300 --> 00:16:49,767
it burns about eight inches
on each end.
392
00:16:49,767 --> 00:16:54,567
So you have eight inches
that are just flat metal.
393
00:16:54,567 --> 00:16:56,700
We just transferred the
measurements off the trailer
394
00:16:56,700 --> 00:17:00,467
onto the table, and we have
our exact dimension
395
00:17:00,467 --> 00:17:02,200
of how to chop this out.
396
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,233
Clamp something here
so all you gotta do is
butt to it.
397
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,166
All right, so we rolled
all this one and a half,
398
00:17:17,166 --> 00:17:19,367
got it all cleaned up,
trimmed up.
399
00:17:19,367 --> 00:17:20,200
Everything's looking good.
400
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:21,200
We're ready to go throw it
401
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:22,800
onto the top
of the trailer now,
402
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:24,300
get them lined out
where they need to go,
403
00:17:24,300 --> 00:17:26,333
and then we can
really start seeing
this trailer come to life.
404
00:17:32,467 --> 00:17:34,433
See if I can step on it.
405
00:17:39,300 --> 00:17:42,100
So right now,
Jamie and I are laying out
406
00:17:42,100 --> 00:17:44,767
every one of these ribs
that we've rolled,
407
00:17:44,767 --> 00:17:46,367
and we're just trying
to match them.
408
00:17:46,367 --> 00:17:48,634
We want them all to have
that same shape.
409
00:17:51,367 --> 00:17:53,100
Yeah, no, that's good.
410
00:17:53,100 --> 00:17:57,266
At 16 feet, we can start
laying out our marks.
411
00:17:57,266 --> 00:17:59,200
We're gonna go
every 15 inches.
412
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:02,266
We got 16 feet,
we got 13 ribs.
413
00:18:02,266 --> 00:18:04,100
We got to lay them out
on center.
414
00:18:04,100 --> 00:18:06,166
We'll get them all
straight like that.
415
00:18:06,166 --> 00:18:07,967
[Jamie] That looks pretty good
like that.
416
00:18:07,967 --> 00:18:09,500
We like the way
these are all laid out.
417
00:18:09,500 --> 00:18:10,767
They're all in place.
418
00:18:10,767 --> 00:18:13,867
We'll tack them,
and then we'll have a roof.,
419
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:30,367
[Bill] You know,
the cool thing about building
420
00:18:30,367 --> 00:18:32,467
a coffee shop trailer,
421
00:18:32,467 --> 00:18:33,867
there are no limits.
422
00:18:33,867 --> 00:18:35,634
We can build
pretty much anything.
423
00:18:37,166 --> 00:18:39,367
You know,
I have it in my head,
what that's gonna be.
424
00:18:39,367 --> 00:18:41,700
But as we go, we can make
those little changes
425
00:18:41,700 --> 00:18:43,567
to make it cooler and cooler.
426
00:18:43,567 --> 00:18:44,867
Now that we have the frame up,
427
00:18:44,867 --> 00:18:47,767
we're gonna make those windows
that actuate up.
428
00:18:51,100 --> 00:18:55,000
So we got some 2x2
16-gauge square tubing.
429
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:57,066
We're gonna build
a perimeter frame
430
00:18:57,066 --> 00:19:00,500
on the inside
of the trailer walls.
431
00:19:00,500 --> 00:19:02,567
We're gonna line these
with canvas.
432
00:19:02,567 --> 00:19:03,900
So when you're going
down the road,
433
00:19:03,900 --> 00:19:06,100
you can have the trailer all
closed up.
434
00:19:06,100 --> 00:19:07,667
And then when you get
to where you're going,
435
00:19:07,667 --> 00:19:09,767
we're gonna actuate these
so it comes up
436
00:19:09,767 --> 00:19:11,100
so you have even more shade
437
00:19:11,100 --> 00:19:12,367
all the way
around the trailer.
438
00:19:12,367 --> 00:19:13,767
So it's gonna be pretty cool.
439
00:19:14,767 --> 00:19:17,367
Little seat clamp here,
little seat clamp up there.
440
00:19:19,767 --> 00:19:21,200
We're gonna make
six of these total,
441
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:24,000
so we're gonna set up a
quick little jig on the table
442
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:25,533
so we can knock them out
pretty quick.
443
00:19:26,767 --> 00:19:28,567
We'll get these all packed up,
welded up,
444
00:19:28,567 --> 00:19:30,667
and off to the trailer.
445
00:19:35,467 --> 00:19:37,000
Cool.
446
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,567
We got all our canopy frames
finished up.
447
00:19:39,567 --> 00:19:42,600
We got everything welded,
buffed, sanded, looking good.
448
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:43,700
So now I'm gonna go ahead
449
00:19:43,700 --> 00:19:45,367
and start putting
our hinges on here.
450
00:19:45,367 --> 00:19:47,667
We got some really
heavy-duty hinges.
451
00:19:47,667 --> 00:19:49,700
We're gonna go ahead
and put these on the top,
452
00:19:49,700 --> 00:19:52,700
allow it to open up and close.
453
00:19:52,700 --> 00:19:55,367
I'm gonna get these thrown on,
get them welded on,
454
00:19:55,367 --> 00:19:57,367
and then we're gonna get them
all put on the trailer.
455
00:19:58,367 --> 00:20:00,166
Mind giving us
a hand real quick,
456
00:20:00,166 --> 00:20:03,000
uh, tacking this up
on the very front?
457
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:04,333
No, no, let's go.
458
00:20:07,166 --> 00:20:09,066
Will it reach to that corner
over there, yeah?
459
00:20:09,066 --> 00:20:10,133
-Yeah.
-All right.
460
00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:12,667
Need to spin it, yep.
461
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:16,467
-Now set it in right there.
-All right.
462
00:20:16,467 --> 00:20:18,634
-You got it?
-[Jamie] Yeah.
463
00:20:21,667 --> 00:20:22,834
Raise it.
464
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:25,033
Knock you off.
465
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:29,233
[Bill] Cool, man.
466
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:53,100
They're working
on the trailer for
467
00:20:53,100 --> 00:20:54,767
the Maxwell House
coffee truck.
468
00:20:54,767 --> 00:20:55,900
They've got the top built,
469
00:20:55,900 --> 00:20:57,367
everything's framed out
and ready to go,
470
00:20:57,367 --> 00:20:58,600
so I'm gonna take a canvas,
471
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:00,467
and I have to make
a top for this thing.
472
00:21:00,467 --> 00:21:02,333
I mean, it's big.
473
00:21:03,567 --> 00:21:05,400
101 inches in one direction
474
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,333
and 192
in the other direction.
475
00:21:08,100 --> 00:21:09,967
It's gonna be long.
476
00:21:15,166 --> 00:21:17,000
Since the piece was so large,
477
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,800
all I'm doing now is just
verifying my ends are square.
478
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:22,767
Once I got it all squared up,
I got to roll out another,
479
00:21:22,767 --> 00:21:25,467
get them cut
exactly the same size,
480
00:21:25,467 --> 00:21:27,233
and then it'll be time
to start sewing them together.
481
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:31,834
Fantastic!
482
00:21:38,367 --> 00:21:41,000
Well, managed to drag out
enough material,
483
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,000
got it all cut up,
got it squared up.
484
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,900
Doesn't look like much,
but it's ready to go.
485
00:21:45,900 --> 00:21:47,867
It's gonna be a lot of work,
so get it over the trailer,
486
00:21:47,867 --> 00:21:49,266
and we'll move on
to the next step.
487
00:22:06,467 --> 00:22:07,967
For the Maxwell trailer,
488
00:22:07,967 --> 00:22:11,066
we're doing the actuators now
to lift up all the doors.
489
00:22:11,066 --> 00:22:12,867
So we're gonna take this DOM.
490
00:22:12,867 --> 00:22:14,567
We're gonna turn down
the end of it
491
00:22:14,567 --> 00:22:16,867
to miss the body
of the actuator
492
00:22:16,867 --> 00:22:18,400
when it goes up and down.
493
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,166
So I'm gonna turn
the end down...
494
00:22:20,166 --> 00:22:24,066
by coming in at half inch
and go down about maybe
three-sixteenth inch or so.
495
00:22:24,066 --> 00:22:26,266
We'll try it out.
Make sure it clears.
496
00:22:26,266 --> 00:22:28,533
If it clears,
we'll cut six more.
497
00:22:32,467 --> 00:22:35,000
So using the lathe
is a little bit better in this
498
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:36,667
because I want to turn down
the whole end
499
00:22:36,667 --> 00:22:38,700
instead of using the
grinder and cutting it.
500
00:22:38,700 --> 00:22:41,400
This makes for a nicer piece.
It's a machine look.
501
00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:43,967
it looks like, you know,
we put some effort into it.
502
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:48,867
Just like that
we got our piece.
503
00:22:48,867 --> 00:22:50,433
Let's go try it out.
See if it works.
504
00:22:51,900 --> 00:22:53,467
So, we got our actuator here.
505
00:22:53,467 --> 00:22:56,200
This is how it's gonna pivot
when it's going up and down.
506
00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:58,066
That's exactly what
we're looking for there
507
00:23:00,066 --> 00:23:03,467
This bottom bracket here
is going to hold the bottom
of our actuator.
508
00:23:03,467 --> 00:23:05,667
Very important to get this,
509
00:23:05,667 --> 00:23:07,967
that one, that one, that one,
that one, that one...
510
00:23:07,967 --> 00:23:11,567
Every single one of them
has to be on the same plane
because if they're not,
511
00:23:11,567 --> 00:23:13,467
the door will open
in different ways.
512
00:23:13,467 --> 00:23:15,767
It's gonna get stressed out.
It'll try to flex.
513
00:23:15,767 --> 00:23:16,867
Nothing will work properly.
514
00:23:16,867 --> 00:23:21,400
I can put this guy here
and now we can build
off of this
515
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,767
top support that runs to
the whole back of the trailer.
516
00:23:24,767 --> 00:23:26,300
Now that we know
our measurement
517
00:23:26,300 --> 00:23:28,900
from the bottom to the top
of this here,
518
00:23:28,900 --> 00:23:31,300
we know exactly how long
our piece needs to be.
519
00:23:31,300 --> 00:23:34,133
Dustin's cutting
that over there,
we'll get that tacked in.
520
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:37,800
And now it's just a matter of
just making it look cool, man.
521
00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:39,300
Giving it a little bit
of strength, a little style.
522
00:23:39,300 --> 00:23:41,000
Something like that.
523
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,100
I think that looks
pretty dang cool.
524
00:23:43,100 --> 00:23:45,000
If it was my trailer,
I'd be happy with it.
525
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:48,367
So, I got this one coked
and cut like I want it.
526
00:23:48,367 --> 00:23:51,133
I can get it tacked in
and we can move on
to the middle.
527
00:23:53,166 --> 00:23:54,834
-It does look pretty cool,
actually.
-[Dustin] Yeah.
528
00:23:56,467 --> 00:23:58,700
This back door is super simple
because we made this
529
00:23:58,700 --> 00:24:01,467
extra little structure here
to be able to bolt off of.
530
00:24:01,467 --> 00:24:04,667
We got Jessie to burn out
eight of these for us.
531
00:24:04,667 --> 00:24:06,700
All we got to do
is put this guy up here
532
00:24:06,700 --> 00:24:08,266
and tack it to the top
right there.
533
00:24:08,266 --> 00:24:12,367
Once it's all bolted in,
we'll test these actuators
and make sure it works.
534
00:24:12,367 --> 00:24:15,166
[whirring]
535
00:24:41,500 --> 00:24:43,266
-What's happening?
-Hey, how are you, sir?
536
00:24:43,266 --> 00:24:45,467
-Eddie James.
-Bill. Nice to meet you, man.
537
00:24:45,467 --> 00:24:47,700
-Nice to meet you, Bill.
-What you got going on here?
538
00:24:47,700 --> 00:24:51,867
So, got an old 1953 Chevy
ice cream truck.
539
00:24:51,867 --> 00:24:53,266
Man, that's definitely unique.
540
00:24:53,266 --> 00:24:55,567
It is.
It's not something
you see every day.
541
00:24:55,567 --> 00:24:57,266
[Bill] Definitely not, man.
542
00:24:57,266 --> 00:25:00,100
[Eddie] So I know the project
that I have is unique.
543
00:25:00,100 --> 00:25:04,266
And I knew the perfect place
to bring it, would be
to Ekstensive.
544
00:25:04,266 --> 00:25:08,400
Bill does some of the most
amazing metal work, paintwork,
545
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:10,667
and just all around
custom build.
546
00:25:10,667 --> 00:25:12,200
So why a ice cream truck?
547
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:16,400
So my daughter and I work
with a couple of different
charities in our community.
548
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:20,000
And so we're just
looking for something
that would be unique,
549
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:21,967
that we can take
to charity events
550
00:25:21,967 --> 00:25:23,967
and can hand out ice cream
to the kids.
551
00:25:23,967 --> 00:25:26,600
-What a great way
to give back, right?
-Yeah, I love it.
552
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:29,767
You know, people build cars
for all sorts of
different reasons.
553
00:25:29,767 --> 00:25:32,266
You know, most of the time
it's for a car show.
554
00:25:32,266 --> 00:25:34,967
You know, most of the time
to have that trophy
in the garage.
555
00:25:34,967 --> 00:25:37,000
But in this case,
it's really cool,
556
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:40,467
you know, that he wants to
build this just to give back
to the community.
557
00:25:40,467 --> 00:25:43,467
Just to go out, meet people,
have a good time
558
00:25:43,467 --> 00:25:44,800
and share some ice cream
with them.
559
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:49,000
So this truck, in particular
does have a little bit
of movie history.
560
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:51,667
Such as Cheech & Chong,
Nice Dreams,
561
00:25:51,667 --> 00:25:54,166
and Raiders of the Lost Ark,
Crystal Skull.
562
00:25:54,166 --> 00:25:57,900
-Oh, wow. Hopefully we can add
to that history.
-[Eddie] Absolutely.
563
00:25:57,900 --> 00:26:00,166
So, what do you
want to do with it?
564
00:26:00,166 --> 00:26:05,200
So, you know, of course,
it's kind of old and tired
and bland looking.
565
00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:09,100
We want to really kind of
make it shiny and really cool.
566
00:26:09,100 --> 00:26:11,767
Whenever you pull up,
it catches a lot of attention.
567
00:26:11,767 --> 00:26:13,767
You know, the truck's
already super cool,
568
00:26:13,767 --> 00:26:15,800
but what'd definitely
make it cooler...
569
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:17,300
-Mmm-hmm.
-...is just making it
a little lower.
570
00:26:17,300 --> 00:26:20,367
You know,
definitely a new suspension,
front and back.
571
00:26:20,367 --> 00:26:23,300
I mean,
when you pull up somewhere,
you're dropping it down.
572
00:26:23,300 --> 00:26:24,667
It's already gonna
attract attention.
573
00:26:24,667 --> 00:26:26,266
But that would just
draw a crowd.
574
00:26:26,266 --> 00:26:29,667
-And that's even more
ice cream you can give back.
-That's right.
575
00:26:29,667 --> 00:26:33,300
[Bill] You know,
new wheels, new tires.
Get that stance down good.
576
00:26:33,300 --> 00:26:35,367
You know,
make it look real cool.
577
00:26:35,367 --> 00:26:37,900
And are you stuck on white?
578
00:26:37,900 --> 00:26:41,100
[Eddie] No, actually,
I would love to put some
color on it.
579
00:26:41,100 --> 00:26:44,300
Even a two-tone but
I'm leaving that totally
up to you.
580
00:26:44,300 --> 00:26:47,700
So I just come up
with a color that fits it
and just attracts attention.
581
00:26:47,700 --> 00:26:49,800
Absolutely.
Whatever you think looks best.
582
00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:51,400
We definitely got you
on that, man.
583
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:54,967
As far as the interior,
I mean, we pretty much
only have seat covers.
584
00:26:54,967 --> 00:26:57,867
But, you know, come up with
something fresh and clean.
585
00:26:57,867 --> 00:27:00,100
So, not only
it's what you sit on,
586
00:27:00,100 --> 00:27:03,800
it's what you see
when you're walking up
to the truck itself, right?
587
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:05,700
We need to come up
with something that just,
you know,
588
00:27:05,700 --> 00:27:09,767
not only comfortable for you
to ride in and, you know,
it looks good
589
00:27:09,767 --> 00:27:12,467
-and fits with
the rest of the truck, also.
-[Eddie] Sure.
590
00:27:12,467 --> 00:27:16,066
And the seat's a little high,
so the windshield hits me
about here.
591
00:27:16,066 --> 00:27:18,667
-So, you know,
getting that cool seat...
-[Bill] Lowering that down?
592
00:27:18,667 --> 00:27:21,066
-...would be really nice
-Definitely.
593
00:27:21,066 --> 00:27:23,000
And definitely, you got to put
some stereo in there.
594
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:25,166
You know, that's part
of the ice-cream truck.
595
00:27:25,166 --> 00:27:27,767
-You got to hear it
before you see it, right?
-[Eddie] I agree.
596
00:27:27,767 --> 00:27:29,867
What you got going on
under the hood?
597
00:27:29,867 --> 00:27:33,900
So it's got
the original 6-cylinder,
so not much going on there.
598
00:27:33,900 --> 00:27:35,333
-Let's check it out.
-[Eddie] Okay.
599
00:27:43,367 --> 00:27:46,266
Yeah, definitely not much
going on there, for sure.
600
00:27:46,266 --> 00:27:47,967
You know, I think
on something like this,
601
00:27:47,967 --> 00:27:51,867
just the best way to do this
is to just rip all this out
and then just start fresh.
602
00:27:51,867 --> 00:27:54,100
Put a, you know,
later model LS engine in it.
603
00:27:54,100 --> 00:27:58,367
That way you've got
plenty of power,
plenty of reliability.
604
00:27:58,367 --> 00:28:01,767
That original 6-cylinder
didn't have a whole lot
of power
605
00:28:01,767 --> 00:28:04,667
even when it was new,
and it's definitely tired.
606
00:28:04,667 --> 00:28:07,800
So some horsepower
and reliability,
607
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:09,166
definitely what
I'm looking for.
608
00:28:11,066 --> 00:28:12,767
Man, that's just all wood
in there, hu?
609
00:28:12,767 --> 00:28:18,100
Yeah, I believe
that may actually be
the original stuff from 1953.
610
00:28:18,100 --> 00:28:21,467
That's crazy.
I figured it'd be stainless
all in there, right?
611
00:28:21,467 --> 00:28:23,000
-Right.
-Does it work now?
612
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,066
As far as I know,
none of it works.
613
00:28:25,066 --> 00:28:26,500
You know,
I'm no refrigerator guy,
614
00:28:26,500 --> 00:28:29,767
but we're gonna figure out
a way to make this happen.
Make it work for you.
615
00:28:29,767 --> 00:28:32,166
-I knew we came
to the right place.
-[Bill] Yeah.
616
00:28:33,100 --> 00:28:34,667
Builds like this
ice-cream truck
617
00:28:34,667 --> 00:28:36,967
that just
pushes us fabricators.
618
00:28:36,967 --> 00:28:38,600
And getting them in, now,
619
00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:41,266
it just gives us more time
to figure out
that right approach
620
00:28:41,266 --> 00:28:43,433
to take them
completely over the top.
621
00:28:44,667 --> 00:28:47,400
Me and Bill are gonna have
a pull-up competition.
622
00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:49,200
[Bill] But we can't get
too distracted.
623
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:53,200
We still have a lot left to do
on the coffee trailer
for the '31 Ford.
624
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:54,533
Come on, dude.
625
00:28:56,567 --> 00:29:00,100
[Bill] We're basically
building a rolling
coffee shop, so,
626
00:29:00,100 --> 00:29:01,367
so we gotta have
a place to sit.
627
00:29:01,367 --> 00:29:04,100
So what we're gonna do
is build a seating area
back here
628
00:29:04,100 --> 00:29:05,533
with some storage
underneath it.
629
00:29:06,867 --> 00:29:09,000
So right now we're gonna
lay out how it's gonna look.
630
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,867
Frame it all out.
We'll have some
butcher block on top.
631
00:29:13,300 --> 00:29:16,100
We're making our framework
all out of one by one
square tubing,
632
00:29:16,100 --> 00:29:17,734
so it'd be plenty of support.
633
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:20,533
It's 73 divided by three.
634
00:29:21,100 --> 00:29:22,867
Twenty-four and a half.
635
00:29:22,867 --> 00:29:25,367
-[Bill] Twenty-four
and one half?
-[Jamie] Yes, sir.
636
00:29:25,367 --> 00:29:26,367
[Bill] We've got
our counter space.
637
00:29:26,367 --> 00:29:29,367
What we're gonna have
is a little L shape here.
638
00:29:29,367 --> 00:29:31,467
Have a little bit more
prep room.
639
00:29:31,467 --> 00:29:33,266
We got some butcher block top.
640
00:29:33,266 --> 00:29:35,567
I think it'll all look really,
really good
641
00:29:35,567 --> 00:29:37,767
with the same stain
all throughout.
642
00:29:37,767 --> 00:29:39,500
We're gonna have our cabinets
underneath there
643
00:29:39,500 --> 00:29:42,367
to hide all our water tanks
and plumbing.
644
00:29:42,367 --> 00:29:44,533
You know, they'll have some
storage under here, too.
645
00:29:56,100 --> 00:29:58,266
Since we've used
the butcher block
on the countertops,
646
00:29:58,266 --> 00:29:59,967
we're gonna carry that theme
out through the back.
647
00:29:59,967 --> 00:30:01,800
We're just gonna use
these butcher block tops,
648
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:03,634
cut them up and make
the benches out of that.
649
00:30:14,867 --> 00:30:16,166
[Jamie] What you doing
to the board?
650
00:30:16,166 --> 00:30:18,166
[John] That's gonna be
the guide for the router bit.
651
00:30:18,166 --> 00:30:20,266
We're gonna put that
right on the line
652
00:30:20,266 --> 00:30:22,100
-and then flush trim to it.
-[Jamie] Okay.
653
00:30:22,100 --> 00:30:24,433
[John] Well, that's what
this is for. Double sided
stick tape.
654
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:30,300
That will guarantee that
we have a perfect 45 degree
miter in the corner.
655
00:30:30,300 --> 00:30:33,166
These blocks are so thick,
it's hard to get a saw
to run through.
656
00:30:33,166 --> 00:30:35,567
You try to go through
with a jigsaw or something,
it'll warp,
657
00:30:35,567 --> 00:30:38,266
so, we're just gonna give it
a good clean cut
with a router.
658
00:30:40,100 --> 00:30:41,233
Perfect.
659
00:30:53,367 --> 00:30:56,667
[Bill] Nice. Miters look good,
angles line up.
660
00:30:56,667 --> 00:30:58,934
-So you've got
the good height, huh?
-Yeah.
661
00:30:59,667 --> 00:31:00,800
That'll work.
662
00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:03,834
-So what's the size
of the table?
-[Bill] 32 by 24.
663
00:31:04,500 --> 00:31:07,166
Okay, that'll fit. What if...
664
00:31:07,166 --> 00:31:10,467
If I can take the tabletop,
I can fit it in my laser
665
00:31:10,467 --> 00:31:14,600
and I can laser the logo...
their new logo into the top
of the table?
666
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:16,800
That way you kinda personalize
it for the trailer.
667
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:18,467
-That'll looked good.
-[John] Cool.
668
00:31:18,467 --> 00:31:20,467
You know, I just can't wait
to get done with all this
669
00:31:20,467 --> 00:31:22,800
so I can enjoy a cup of coffee
right here.
670
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:24,867
-I'm gonna enjoy one
with you, so...
-Right.
671
00:31:24,867 --> 00:31:26,834
-...let's get it done.
-Let's do it, man.
672
00:31:42,266 --> 00:31:43,700
[Bill] Yeah, it's a big moment
right now.
673
00:31:43,700 --> 00:31:47,934
We've got a whole lot
accomplished on the trailer
for that '31 Ford.
674
00:31:48,767 --> 00:31:51,200
But what it's all about
is making coffee.
675
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:55,734
So we have
this antique roaster
to get in place.
676
00:31:56,467 --> 00:31:59,433
This old roaster is
about 2,000 lb.
677
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,266
Please, please
keep a hand on it.
678
00:32:02,266 --> 00:32:04,567
So we're gonna have to wrestle
it up in the right spot.
679
00:32:04,567 --> 00:32:06,066
We're good.
680
00:32:06,066 --> 00:32:07,667
Preferably right over
the tires,
681
00:32:07,667 --> 00:32:10,700
so the weight's
a little more distributed.
682
00:32:10,700 --> 00:32:12,400
Let's see where we go
from there.
683
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:13,834
[Jamie] That pipe... Pipe.
684
00:32:15,100 --> 00:32:16,967
[Dustin] Okay, it's on 'em.
685
00:32:16,967 --> 00:32:20,467
[Bill] What we want is
the pipes all the same spot.
You know what I mean?
686
00:32:22,166 --> 00:32:25,000
You know how you get a big ass
heavy safe in your house?
687
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:26,300
[Dustin] I don't... Yeah, no.
688
00:32:26,300 --> 00:32:29,300
[Bill] Golf balls.
Put them wherever you want.
689
00:32:29,300 --> 00:32:31,100
All right. You ready?
690
00:32:31,100 --> 00:32:33,066
Just easy. Just go slow.
691
00:32:34,867 --> 00:32:36,700
We're gonna steal
a little technique
from the Egyptians?
692
00:32:36,700 --> 00:32:39,166
You know, they throw those
big old blocks on timbers.
693
00:32:39,166 --> 00:32:40,800
We're gonna use pipe here.
694
00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:43,367
[Bill] Is it gonna miss
the wood in the corner
over there?
695
00:32:43,367 --> 00:32:45,000
We should.
696
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:46,500
Roll it right into place.
697
00:32:46,500 --> 00:32:47,634
That's gonna be home.
698
00:32:48,100 --> 00:32:49,734
Two, three...
699
00:32:51,300 --> 00:32:52,867
There you go. Cool.
700
00:33:05,266 --> 00:33:07,500
[John] I'm working
on the tabletop for
the Maxwell House trailer,
701
00:33:07,500 --> 00:33:09,367
and they sent over a file
of their logo.
702
00:33:09,367 --> 00:33:11,266
So I'm gonna take that,
and get that imported.
703
00:33:11,266 --> 00:33:12,600
I got to do a little
cleaning up on it.
704
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:14,967
As you can see,
there's a lot going on here,
705
00:33:14,967 --> 00:33:17,166
mainly in the coffee cup
and the drip.
706
00:33:17,166 --> 00:33:18,667
I'll get it scaled, sized,
707
00:33:18,667 --> 00:33:20,467
get it into the laser
and we'll get it running.
708
00:33:25,667 --> 00:33:28,266
This will probably run for
about an hour and a half,
two hours.
709
00:33:28,266 --> 00:33:29,867
Not anything else
I can do with it
710
00:33:29,867 --> 00:33:31,300
except for waiting on it
to get finished.
711
00:33:31,300 --> 00:33:33,667
So I'm gonna go get busy
and work on something else.
712
00:33:45,100 --> 00:33:46,867
All right,
so everything worked out good.
713
00:33:46,867 --> 00:33:48,667
Got it centered up,
placed perfect.
714
00:33:48,667 --> 00:33:50,900
So, next step,
round over the corners
715
00:33:50,900 --> 00:33:53,433
and it's off to stain,
and this thing's done.
716
00:33:54,967 --> 00:33:56,066
It's heavy.
717
00:34:04,900 --> 00:34:07,867
It's too heavy to handle
over there.
718
00:34:07,867 --> 00:34:11,600
So it's a template
that I'm going to route to,
719
00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:14,233
so I don't have to screw
something up over there.
720
00:34:29,100 --> 00:34:31,700
Well, that is that.
My job's done.
721
00:34:31,700 --> 00:34:33,066
This thing worked out perfect.
722
00:34:33,066 --> 00:34:35,367
So we'll send this off,
let it get finished,
723
00:34:35,367 --> 00:34:37,667
and, uh, I'm gonna go find
another fire to put out.
724
00:34:44,867 --> 00:34:46,567
Come over here with the...
725
00:34:47,767 --> 00:34:49,367
Bill dropped off
the countertops.
726
00:34:49,367 --> 00:34:50,900
Everything looks really good.
727
00:34:50,900 --> 00:34:53,600
John did a really good job
lasering the logo.
728
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:54,867
So we're gonna
get them prepped out.
729
00:34:54,867 --> 00:34:57,567
We're gonna get them finished,
sanded, do a spray stain.
730
00:34:57,567 --> 00:35:00,567
And make sure
they look really, really nice
on the trailer.
731
00:35:00,567 --> 00:35:03,467
So first thing we have to do,
we've got to fix
732
00:35:03,467 --> 00:35:06,867
all of the imperfections
in the substrate.
733
00:35:06,867 --> 00:35:10,567
We're using a light
to make sure that we can
actually see everything.
734
00:35:10,567 --> 00:35:14,667
That's gonna highlight
every imperfection
in the actual countertop.
735
00:35:14,667 --> 00:35:18,100
So we're actually going to
use an iron and a wet rag.
736
00:35:18,100 --> 00:35:23,000
The heat is going to
swell the wood,
bring it to the top.
737
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:26,934
So we can see that, now,
the imperfections
are starting to raise up.
738
00:35:28,867 --> 00:35:31,567
Oh, yeah,
those came out real nice.
739
00:35:36,166 --> 00:35:39,000
All right, cool.
So now that we've got
everything dry,
740
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:42,767
this is ready to sand
and that will be
the final step
741
00:35:42,767 --> 00:35:44,400
before we go ahead and stain.
742
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:47,400
Whenever we're sanding
we just want to make sure
743
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:51,000
that we go in an even pattern.
We don't want to go too fast.
744
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:54,166
If we do, we might end up
with standing swirls
745
00:35:54,166 --> 00:35:57,333
that are gonna highlight
through when we go ahead
and stain.
746
00:36:00,467 --> 00:36:02,200
We've got our clear coat
picked out.
747
00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:03,800
We're going to make a stain.
748
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:07,000
It's important that everything
is 100% food safe,
749
00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:08,767
since they're gonna be
serving off of this
750
00:36:08,767 --> 00:36:11,667
and that's what this
product's going to do for us.
751
00:36:11,667 --> 00:36:14,400
Since this butch block
has multiple species of wood,
752
00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:16,667
it's important that we
actually use a spray stain
753
00:36:16,667 --> 00:36:20,500
so everything's uniform
and looks consistent.
754
00:36:20,500 --> 00:36:22,734
All right, gun's loaded.
Let's get staining.
755
00:36:31,867 --> 00:36:34,100
Awesome. Now we've got
everything stained.
756
00:36:34,100 --> 00:36:37,600
We're ready to put
the food safe clear coat
on top.
757
00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:40,767
These countertops
are gonna be well protected
for years to come.
758
00:36:46,867 --> 00:36:48,467
We've had some
great builds together.
We've had some fun ones.
759
00:36:48,467 --> 00:36:49,667
We had some
really challenging,
760
00:36:49,667 --> 00:36:52,667
-and we've had
a lot of...
-Over 19.
761
00:36:52,667 --> 00:36:55,100
-...in the... good ones too.
-Yeah.
762
00:36:55,100 --> 00:36:57,166
And that's what's cool
about what we do around here.
763
00:36:57,166 --> 00:36:59,700
It's the wide range
of everything.
764
00:36:59,700 --> 00:37:02,300
We'll build a car
for Earl Campbell,
765
00:37:02,300 --> 00:37:04,467
and then we'll build
a motorcycle trailer.
766
00:37:04,467 --> 00:37:06,400
[Jamie] Something totally
out of character.
767
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:09,567
You know, it's not really
a vehicle that doesn't have
a motor, but come to the guy,
768
00:37:09,567 --> 00:37:11,000
gonna build it.
769
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:12,500
-[Bill] The barbecue truck...
-[Jamie] Yeah.
770
00:37:12,500 --> 00:37:14,367
-...the tanker truck
we turned...
-Y'all strapped me
771
00:37:14,367 --> 00:37:17,266
-inside that thing and then
popped the hilt. [chuckles]
-[Bill] Yeah.
772
00:37:17,266 --> 00:37:19,266
[all laughing]
773
00:37:19,266 --> 00:37:21,367
Definitely one of the
favorites was the buggy.
774
00:37:21,367 --> 00:37:23,166
You had this idea.
775
00:37:23,166 --> 00:37:26,166
We had stuff mocked up,
a flat bar and chipboard.
776
00:37:26,166 --> 00:37:27,667
[Bill] They're just
building it completely
777
00:37:27,667 --> 00:37:30,567
-from absolutely
nothing there.
-That's right.
778
00:37:30,567 --> 00:37:33,066
Boom! Before you knew it
we had a cage on the table,
779
00:37:33,066 --> 00:37:35,200
and it just started
coming together so fast.
780
00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:38,900
One of the great thing
about working here is seeing
what he imagines
781
00:37:38,900 --> 00:37:41,567
just start coming to life
and all the hard work,
782
00:37:41,567 --> 00:37:44,634
the late nights...
all that stuff goes right away
when it's done.
783
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:56,600
[Bill] Well,
when we first took
in the '31 Ford truck,
784
00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:59,600
you know,
I wasn't even thinking
about a coffee shop on wheels.
785
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:03,266
Now that we're almost done,
I couldn't imagine this build
without it.
786
00:38:03,266 --> 00:38:06,467
You know, I'm really excited
how this trailer is coming out
right here at the end.
787
00:38:06,467 --> 00:38:09,934
We're painting the frame,
and we're gonna add coffee
stained floor to match.
788
00:38:13,467 --> 00:38:14,867
[Jamie] We're at that point
where we need to
789
00:38:14,867 --> 00:38:17,000
put that exterior wood
right on this trailer.
790
00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:21,667
It's gonna kind of simulate
what the bed of the truck
looks like.
791
00:38:21,667 --> 00:38:24,634
Once we get this canvas on,
it's gonna tie
everything together.
792
00:38:25,467 --> 00:38:27,200
We're gonna have a roaster
in here soon.
793
00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:29,867
We'll have a grinder,
countertops on it.
794
00:38:29,867 --> 00:38:32,066
Sink, coffee table.
795
00:38:32,066 --> 00:38:33,934
This thing's.
gonna be something
796
00:38:42,700 --> 00:38:45,567
[Bill] Finished the
Maxwell House truck
not too long ago.
797
00:38:45,567 --> 00:38:48,467
Now the trailer is done today.
798
00:38:48,467 --> 00:38:53,166
You know, which means
the whole project's done
so we've got Rex coming in.
799
00:38:53,166 --> 00:38:55,400
-[Rex] What's up, Bill?
-Feels like I'd just seen you.
800
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:57,767
Hopefully he kept a secret
on the truck.
801
00:38:57,767 --> 00:39:00,266
-Ready to see it, man.
-Let's go check it out.
802
00:39:00,266 --> 00:39:03,300
The anticipation of waiting
on this thing been crazy.
803
00:39:03,300 --> 00:39:04,900
I've been wanting
to tell everybody,
804
00:39:04,900 --> 00:39:06,467
but definitely
keeping a secret.
805
00:39:06,467 --> 00:39:07,900
More than ready.
806
00:39:07,900 --> 00:39:09,767
We've been working hard
at it, man.
807
00:39:09,767 --> 00:39:10,934
I know y'all have.
808
00:39:12,166 --> 00:39:13,533
Oh, my God, Bill.
809
00:39:14,166 --> 00:39:16,467
Man, what a combination,
bro.
810
00:39:16,467 --> 00:39:20,300
That trailer is so huge,
too, man. I had no idea.
811
00:39:20,300 --> 00:39:22,567
Love the wood on the side.
Matches the truck.
812
00:39:22,567 --> 00:39:24,567
-[Bill] It looks
good together.
-Man, it does.
813
00:39:24,567 --> 00:39:27,667
-Got some wheels
on that thing too.
-Uh-huh.
814
00:39:27,667 --> 00:39:30,367
[Rex] Bill, I'm...
I'm blown away.
I'm blown away.
815
00:39:30,367 --> 00:39:32,767
People in Jacksonville
are gonna freak out.
816
00:39:32,767 --> 00:39:35,767
Shoot! Anywhere you go
with this, people are gonna
freak out.
817
00:39:35,767 --> 00:39:37,400
Matches old Max perfectly.
818
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:40,767
You could tell
it was Maxwell House
just by looking at it.
819
00:39:40,767 --> 00:39:43,166
Man, this thing looks so cool
all together.
820
00:39:43,166 --> 00:39:47,166
You never see a '31 Ford
one ton truck anywhere.
821
00:39:47,166 --> 00:39:49,767
Much less a custom
'31 Ford truck.
822
00:39:49,767 --> 00:39:53,467
But then you pull up somewhere
and you see
he matching trailer for it.
823
00:39:53,467 --> 00:39:55,467
-It's amazing, man.
-Everybody is gonna
be blown away.
824
00:39:55,467 --> 00:39:57,000
It's amazing.
825
00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:58,100
[Bill] I know
you've seen the truck, man.
826
00:39:58,100 --> 00:40:00,367
-Let's go check the trailer.
-All right.
827
00:40:00,367 --> 00:40:03,100
[Rex] Wow, this thing
is awesome, dude.
828
00:40:03,100 --> 00:40:04,266
[Bill] You had to have
a trailer.
829
00:40:04,266 --> 00:40:06,667
We had a problem
where we didn't have
enough room
830
00:40:06,667 --> 00:40:09,166
on the truck itself
to do what you needed to do.
831
00:40:09,166 --> 00:40:12,867
So we couldn't just
get an enclosed trailer.
832
00:40:12,867 --> 00:40:14,367
It just... It doesn't match.
833
00:40:14,367 --> 00:40:18,867
So we started out with just
a 16-foot flat deck trailer.
834
00:40:18,867 --> 00:40:21,700
Just gave me
the perfect platform
835
00:40:21,700 --> 00:40:23,900
to build what we needed
to build for you.
836
00:40:23,900 --> 00:40:26,867
We started out with six posts
and just went from there.
837
00:40:26,867 --> 00:40:30,200
We built a canvas roof
and actuated canvas sides.
838
00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:31,667
So when you're rolling down
the road,
839
00:40:31,667 --> 00:40:34,000
everything's enclosed,
out of the elements.
840
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:36,467
When you get to
where you're going,
you open it all up,
841
00:40:36,467 --> 00:40:37,867
-you're in business.
-It's awesome.
842
00:40:37,867 --> 00:40:39,467
It's so sick, man. Let's see.
843
00:40:44,166 --> 00:40:47,400
Man. I know when we roll up
to a car show and start
opening this thing,
844
00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:49,100
people are gonna be wondering
what's in there.
845
00:40:49,100 --> 00:40:52,867
Rex, I see a lot of
business trips to the car show
for you.
846
00:40:52,867 --> 00:40:55,333
Oh, yeah. For sure.
847
00:40:57,567 --> 00:40:58,967
That's it.
848
00:40:58,967 --> 00:41:01,266
Seeing that trailer,
seeing the doors
all opened up,
849
00:41:01,266 --> 00:41:04,934
Seeing that big
coffee roaster, grinder,
850
00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:07,300
it just makes you want to
go up in it,
851
00:41:07,300 --> 00:41:09,266
see what it's all about,
check it out.
852
00:41:09,867 --> 00:41:11,367
Maybe even get a cup
of coffee.
853
00:41:12,467 --> 00:41:14,166
Man, this thing
is awesome, Bill.
854
00:41:15,066 --> 00:41:16,467
Love the woodwork.
855
00:41:16,467 --> 00:41:18,200
Everything goes together
with old Max.
856
00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:20,567
Got the roaster, grinder.
857
00:41:20,567 --> 00:41:21,867
Got some tunes.
858
00:41:21,867 --> 00:41:23,767
-[Bill] Yeah, man.
-[Rex] Everything nice
open up.
859
00:41:23,767 --> 00:41:25,000
Man, this is crazy.
860
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:28,500
We built all this cabinetry
up front.
861
00:41:28,500 --> 00:41:30,433
You know, it's all that
and the kitchen sink.
862
00:41:31,867 --> 00:41:33,567
You know,
you have your potable water,
863
00:41:33,567 --> 00:41:35,867
your great water tanks,
hot water heater.
864
00:41:35,867 --> 00:41:38,667
Everything is all under here
that you need.
865
00:41:38,667 --> 00:41:43,500
Generator's putting out 225
for that big old grinder.
You got your roaster going.
866
00:41:43,500 --> 00:41:46,400
I can't believe you got the
big piece of equipment
in there.
867
00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:49,467
-I know that's a heavy roaster
right there.
-[Bill] Man, it is.
868
00:41:49,467 --> 00:41:51,867
It's over 2,000 lb.
It's heavy.
869
00:41:51,867 --> 00:41:54,166
Shoot! Just the
grinder's 350 lb.
870
00:41:54,166 --> 00:41:56,467
That's why we placed them,
you know, right over
the axle.
871
00:41:56,467 --> 00:41:58,900
That's the best balance point
for doing well.
872
00:41:58,900 --> 00:42:00,500
It works well, too,
because I mean, we...
873
00:42:00,500 --> 00:42:02,367
We dump beans in here,
they roast
874
00:42:02,367 --> 00:42:03,567
and then we put them
right in the grinder.
875
00:42:03,567 --> 00:42:05,000
-[Bill] Straight into the...
-[Rex] Yep.
876
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:06,767
Got the water
to make coffee with.
877
00:42:06,767 --> 00:42:08,867
I mean, we couldn't ask
for anything better.
878
00:42:08,867 --> 00:42:11,400
The roaster set up,
the path of everything,
879
00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:13,867
the way we actually
make coffee and work...
880
00:42:13,867 --> 00:42:15,700
it's going to be killer.
It's set up perfect.
881
00:42:15,700 --> 00:42:17,634
I love the idea
of the seating area.
882
00:42:19,700 --> 00:42:22,000
Maxwell House logo
on the table.
883
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:23,567
Sit around, drink coffee.
884
00:42:23,567 --> 00:42:25,600
And, man, you got some extra
storage under there, too.
885
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:29,367
So all that flips up
so you can keep all your
coffee beans back there.
886
00:42:29,367 --> 00:42:31,367
You keep weight on the back
side of the trailer, too.
887
00:42:31,367 --> 00:42:35,266
Of course,
we had to hook the trailer up
to match old Max, right?
888
00:42:35,266 --> 00:42:39,400
We stained everything
with coffee in the stain,
so we had to do the same here.
889
00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:42,433
-So, you're standing
on coffee.
-[Rex] That's awesome.
890
00:42:43,767 --> 00:42:46,667
[Bill] Man, you see,
everything we got
going on here,
891
00:42:46,667 --> 00:42:48,266
we had 16 foot,
892
00:42:49,266 --> 00:42:50,800
and it's still
just what you need.
893
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:53,266
There's no way
all this was gonna fit
894
00:42:53,266 --> 00:42:54,967
and work in the back
of the truck.
895
00:42:54,967 --> 00:42:57,467
So we had to build you
a custom trailer on this.
896
00:42:57,467 --> 00:42:59,367
Always say, it's not just me.
897
00:42:59,367 --> 00:43:02,700
It's everybody at the shop
making projects like this
happen.
898
00:43:02,700 --> 00:43:05,100
You know, I appreciate each
and every one of them,
899
00:43:05,100 --> 00:43:08,900
and I appreciate Maxwell House
giving us the opportunity
to build it for 'em.
900
00:43:08,900 --> 00:43:11,166
Man, I just love
how everything turned out.
901
00:43:11,166 --> 00:43:12,800
You know, with this,
with open air,
902
00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:14,767
people are just gonna be
smelling that coffee.
903
00:43:14,767 --> 00:43:17,066
Whatever event you go to, man,
we've got you hooked up.
904
00:43:17,066 --> 00:43:20,166
And I know you're gonna
make a bunch of coffee
and a bunch of people happy.
905
00:43:20,166 --> 00:43:22,567
They're gonna be
blown away, man.
That's awesome, man.
906
00:43:22,567 --> 00:43:24,367
I love it, dude.
Thank you, my man.
907
00:43:24,367 --> 00:43:26,166
I'm glad you like it.
908
00:43:26,166 --> 00:43:28,667
Let's go work out some
transport and get it to you.
909
00:43:28,667 --> 00:43:29,700
All right. Sounds good, man.
