1
00:00:01,545 --> 00:00:02,794
[Shorty] We have a new car
coming into the shop.
2
00:00:02,796 --> 00:00:05,005
[Vardon]
My car's a '71 Cutlass
3
00:00:05,007 --> 00:00:06,715
and I'm looking for Shorty
to give it some love.
4
00:00:06,717 --> 00:00:08,550
[Shorty] Oh, man,
it definitely needs something.
5
00:00:11,346 --> 00:00:12,946
[Raul] This car got hit.
6
00:00:16,143 --> 00:00:18,310
[Shorty] A motor that ain't
no one seen before.
7
00:00:18,312 --> 00:00:19,895
[Pedro] The instructions
said it would fit.
8
00:00:19,971 --> 00:00:21,521
Ha, it's not fitting.
9
00:00:21,565 --> 00:00:23,607
[Shorty] Any time you get
a car in the booth,
10
00:00:23,609 --> 00:00:25,067
pure excitement.
11
00:00:27,988 --> 00:00:29,362
Damn.
12
00:00:29,364 --> 00:00:30,655
What do y'all think, fellas?
13
00:00:30,657 --> 00:00:32,240
That looks good.
14
00:00:35,412 --> 00:00:37,996
My name is Javier, but most
people called me Shorty.
15
00:00:37,998 --> 00:00:39,247
I was born in Mexico.
16
00:00:40,125 --> 00:00:41,124
And when I was four years ol
17
00:00:41,126 --> 00:00:42,584
my parents moved to Texas
18
00:00:42,586 --> 00:00:44,544
in search
of the American dream.
19
00:00:45,089 --> 00:00:45,903
Now I'm living that dream,
20
00:00:45,981 --> 00:00:47,572
with my own custom shop
21
00:00:47,649 --> 00:00:50,300
and the team that builds
the coolest cars on the road
22
00:00:54,932 --> 00:00:57,182
We make dreams come true.
23
00:00:57,259 --> 00:00:59,184
-Oh!
-[crowd cheers] Yeah!
24
00:01:08,779 --> 00:01:10,821
Hey, yo, let's go
check out our new build.
25
00:01:10,897 --> 00:01:13,740
-What up, Short dog?
-Wassup?
26
00:01:13,742 --> 00:01:15,283
[Shorty] We have a new car
coming into the shop.
27
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,244
The new owner is Vardon.
28
00:01:17,246 --> 00:01:19,121
Sold to him by
another friend, Neel.
29
00:01:19,197 --> 00:01:20,914
Something tells me this
is going to be a challenge.
30
00:01:20,958 --> 00:01:23,041
You know, I'm not
that familiar with
the '71 Cutlass
31
00:01:23,118 --> 00:01:24,918
or any other Cutlass
for that matter.
32
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:26,378
So we'll see what
this car needs.
33
00:01:26,380 --> 00:01:27,587
It's good to see
you guys, man.
34
00:01:27,589 --> 00:01:29,038
-Hey, hey, guys.
-Vardon.
35
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:30,590
-Doing all right, brother?
-This is Vardon right here.
36
00:01:30,634 --> 00:01:32,342
-Hello, brother, hey.
-Hey, Vardon, doing all right?
37
00:01:32,344 --> 00:01:33,718
I see y'all made it.
38
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:37,222
My name is Neel,
and my long time homie
39
00:01:37,224 --> 00:01:38,956
just bought the car from me.
40
00:01:38,958 --> 00:01:41,351
Hey, I don't even know
how we made it here to be
honest, so.
41
00:01:41,428 --> 00:01:43,311
My name's Vardon Williams.
42
00:01:43,313 --> 00:01:45,147
My car's a '71 Cutlass.
43
00:01:45,149 --> 00:01:46,815
And I'm looking for Shorty
to take care of it
44
00:01:46,892 --> 00:01:48,108
and give it some love.
45
00:01:48,110 --> 00:01:49,985
So, you guys coming
from Austin?
46
00:01:51,155 --> 00:01:53,446
-And want to get
this thing built?
-Yeah.
47
00:01:53,490 --> 00:01:55,064
Growing up, I've always
been into cars
48
00:01:55,066 --> 00:01:56,825
and I'm in the position to be
able to make something work.
49
00:01:56,827 --> 00:01:58,218
[Shorty] That's a convertibl
50
00:01:58,220 --> 00:01:59,744
And then you want
to change the wheels,
51
00:01:59,746 --> 00:02:01,371
'cause these are outdated.
52
00:02:01,448 --> 00:02:03,874
You obviously want to put
a whole new color on it.
53
00:02:03,950 --> 00:02:06,084
You haven't seen
the interior yet, though.
54
00:02:06,086 --> 00:02:07,210
[Shorty] Check out
the steering wheel,
55
00:02:07,212 --> 00:02:08,336
the badass steering wheel.
56
00:02:09,298 --> 00:02:10,505
Hey, check out the saddle.
57
00:02:10,507 --> 00:02:11,590
All engraved leather.
58
00:02:11,666 --> 00:02:14,843
White carpet, man, damn!
59
00:02:14,845 --> 00:02:16,970
-[laughs] Somebody did this.
-Somebody did it.
60
00:02:16,972 --> 00:02:18,763
Don't really understand that.
61
00:02:18,765 --> 00:02:21,641
You know, why would anybody
put a white carpet in a car?
62
00:02:21,643 --> 00:02:23,059
Let's see what you got
under the hood, man.
63
00:02:23,136 --> 00:02:24,352
Let's see it.
64
00:02:24,354 --> 00:02:25,812
[indistinct muttering]
65
00:02:25,856 --> 00:02:27,480
Oh, man, it definitely
needs something.
66
00:02:27,515 --> 00:02:29,006
That's coming out.
67
00:02:29,008 --> 00:02:30,859
-Right, Joel?
-[Joel] Yeah, let's just
get it out.
68
00:02:30,861 --> 00:02:33,987
-What are you looking for?
-I'm thinking of converting
this motor to an LS.
69
00:02:33,989 --> 00:02:36,323
Oh, an LS 5.3
or something like that?
70
00:02:36,325 --> 00:02:38,825
Whatever you guys suggest,
I'm going to leave it at that.
71
00:02:38,827 --> 00:02:40,744
I just want it to be
restored and be useable.
72
00:02:40,820 --> 00:02:41,686
You already had that.
73
00:02:41,688 --> 00:02:43,020
It's almost like you can tell
74
00:02:43,022 --> 00:02:44,372
he doesn't know
what he's talking about.
75
00:02:46,126 --> 00:02:48,501
You know, we'll get on it,
I'll do my part,
76
00:02:48,503 --> 00:02:49,544
Joel's got his part.
77
00:02:49,621 --> 00:02:52,130
Man, bottom line, Shorty,
78
00:02:52,132 --> 00:02:54,132
y'all's vision and wherever
you guys wanna go with it,
79
00:02:54,134 --> 00:02:56,176
I'm not opposed to whatever
you guys want
80
00:02:56,211 --> 00:02:57,944
to make happen,
you know what I mean?
81
00:02:57,946 --> 00:02:59,179
-Hey, thank you guys
for your time.
-[Shorty] Thank you, man.
82
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:09,439
-Man.
-Golly.
83
00:03:09,516 --> 00:03:10,899
That thing's heavy.
84
00:03:11,652 --> 00:03:15,695
Vardon is a little lost
on this build that he wants.
85
00:03:15,697 --> 00:03:17,739
He didn't really know
how to explain it.
86
00:03:17,816 --> 00:03:19,115
I can get in his brain
87
00:03:19,117 --> 00:03:21,451
and I can see what
he actually wants.
88
00:03:21,453 --> 00:03:23,578
When it comes time
for him to pick it up,
89
00:03:23,655 --> 00:03:25,288
he won't believe
what it looks like.
90
00:03:25,290 --> 00:03:27,540
You know, the motor's
pretty important, so,
91
00:03:27,584 --> 00:03:29,501
if you want,
go ahead and start
92
00:03:29,503 --> 00:03:30,877
-checking out your leads.
-Okay.
93
00:03:30,879 --> 00:03:32,379
And see if you can locate one.
94
00:03:34,174 --> 00:03:35,924
A lot of the interior's
gonna be changed.
95
00:03:35,926 --> 00:03:39,052
We are gonna put new wheels
and tires, and paint.
96
00:03:39,096 --> 00:03:42,055
But I'm not sure exactly
what color we're gonna go
with the car yet,
97
00:03:42,057 --> 00:03:43,265
but I do have a color in min
98
00:03:43,267 --> 00:03:44,933
that I would like
to put on it,
99
00:03:45,010 --> 00:03:47,227
but changing the color
means a whole lot more time
100
00:03:47,229 --> 00:03:49,479
The rest of the car
needs a lot of love.
101
00:03:49,556 --> 00:03:52,107
As you guys can see, I mean
it's got a lot of issues.
102
00:03:52,109 --> 00:03:54,150
'Cause I haven't done
too many of these cars,
103
00:03:54,152 --> 00:03:56,111
I am looking forward
to doing this one.
104
00:03:56,113 --> 00:03:58,571
When the owner sees it
for the first time
105
00:03:58,615 --> 00:04:01,449
from when he left it,
he's gonna be like...
106
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:05,120
So now it's time to get
the guys in here,
107
00:04:05,122 --> 00:04:06,679
and tear the car down.
108
00:04:07,457 --> 00:04:10,709
If any of you do not know how
to take this car apart...
109
00:04:10,711 --> 00:04:12,252
-[Joel] No way.
-...I got the book
110
00:04:12,254 --> 00:04:13,753
-right here for you.
-That is the service manual?
111
00:04:13,797 --> 00:04:15,588
Service manual,
right here, look.
112
00:04:20,887 --> 00:04:23,596
All right,
my first Oldsmobile.
113
00:04:23,598 --> 00:04:25,307
About ready to pull
the bumper off.
114
00:04:28,895 --> 00:04:32,897
'71 Oldsmobile Cutlass,
progress is pretty good.
115
00:04:47,748 --> 00:04:50,957
We got our '71 Oldsmobile
in the bodywork area.
116
00:04:51,001 --> 00:04:52,500
I think that's the worst area,
117
00:04:52,577 --> 00:04:54,878
as far as, like, bodywork,
but as you can see,
118
00:04:54,996 --> 00:04:56,921
we got our work
cut out for us.
119
00:04:56,923 --> 00:05:00,633
So let's find out
if the canvas that we have,
120
00:05:00,635 --> 00:05:03,428
-it's really gonna be
a good canvas first.
-[Raul] Yeah.
121
00:05:03,430 --> 00:05:05,930
Let me know if you
find something
that it's not gonna work
122
00:05:05,932 --> 00:05:07,891
-and then we'll go from there.
-[Raul] Okay.
123
00:05:08,518 --> 00:05:10,060
So, what I'm gonna do
right now is
124
00:05:10,136 --> 00:05:11,853
I'm just gonna mark
my damage on this fender.
125
00:05:11,855 --> 00:05:13,897
There's the worse fender.
126
00:05:13,973 --> 00:05:15,565
I'm gonna sand down
to bare metal.
127
00:05:15,567 --> 00:05:17,007
And I'm gonna see
what material is it.
128
00:05:17,085 --> 00:05:19,527
If it has bond
or how much material it has
129
00:05:19,562 --> 00:05:21,988
And then we'll go from there.
130
00:05:26,036 --> 00:05:27,577
I got some
of the material off.
131
00:05:27,654 --> 00:05:28,828
I see a big old crown.
132
00:05:28,830 --> 00:05:30,263
This car got hit.
133
00:05:30,265 --> 00:05:32,749
It's gonna get more hard
for me gapping the car,
134
00:05:32,751 --> 00:05:35,668
and not knowing if these
brackets inside are bent.
135
00:05:37,589 --> 00:05:38,797
[Shorty] Raul!
136
00:05:39,424 --> 00:05:40,840
Stop, man, stop.
137
00:05:40,842 --> 00:05:41,958
Don't waste your time.
138
00:05:42,034 --> 00:05:44,094
-We're gonna get new fenders?
-Yes.
139
00:05:44,096 --> 00:05:45,053
[Raul] 'Cause look
at this thing.
140
00:05:45,055 --> 00:05:46,638
Yeah, don't even
bother, man. Here.
141
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:48,681
-Get up, come on.
-[grunts]
142
00:05:48,683 --> 00:05:49,766
This one's too far gone.
143
00:05:49,768 --> 00:05:51,101
-Yeah.
-It's not even worth it.
144
00:05:51,103 --> 00:05:53,103
Let's just go ahead
and do the panel
145
00:05:53,105 --> 00:05:54,687
-that can't be taken off.
-[Raul] Yeah.
146
00:05:54,689 --> 00:05:56,398
[Shorty] Unless
it's just really bad.
147
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,400
I think that that might
be the worst panel
on the car, right?
148
00:05:58,402 --> 00:06:00,485
Yeah, so I'll start
with that one.
149
00:06:00,487 --> 00:06:02,404
Get the fenders going so I
could gap the whole front,
150
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:04,280
-and then...
-Yes, yes.
151
00:06:04,282 --> 00:06:05,740
Hopefully, that will help
out the build.
152
00:06:19,798 --> 00:06:21,798
How are you guys
coming along over here?
153
00:06:21,875 --> 00:06:23,716
I got the top done already,
154
00:06:23,718 --> 00:06:25,760
I got to clean
this little edge more.
155
00:06:25,837 --> 00:06:27,262
I'll probably do, like,
a little skin wipe
156
00:06:27,264 --> 00:06:29,139
on the bottom, make it
a little bit more straight.
157
00:06:29,141 --> 00:06:30,807
What would you
recommend, Raul,
158
00:06:30,809 --> 00:06:34,018
to make sure that the panels
come out nice and straight?
159
00:06:34,095 --> 00:06:35,770
Use two different blocks, man.
160
00:06:35,847 --> 00:06:38,356
What I'm doing
is using this one,
161
00:06:38,358 --> 00:06:39,774
and then, like, acrylic block
162
00:06:39,776 --> 00:06:41,943
so I could just
keep it straight.
163
00:06:41,945 --> 00:06:44,279
You obviously have to use
several different kinds
of blocks
164
00:06:44,281 --> 00:06:46,781
because the curvature
of each panel.
165
00:06:46,858 --> 00:06:49,617
Yeah, and you can see
a little bit of dent here.
166
00:06:49,619 --> 00:06:52,954
So all this, they had
fiberglass, so I took it--
167
00:06:52,956 --> 00:06:54,122
-Really?
-Yeah, I took some--
168
00:06:54,124 --> 00:06:55,498
-Fiberglass?
-Yeah, fiberglass.
169
00:06:55,500 --> 00:06:57,542
I mean, it's gonna work
for another 20 years.
170
00:06:58,128 --> 00:06:59,919
[Shorty] Yeah, it looks good
171
00:06:59,963 --> 00:07:02,188
It's not only about
putting a fender on,
172
00:07:02,190 --> 00:07:04,841
-but it's about the grits
of sandpaper that you use.
- [Raul] Yeah.
173
00:07:04,843 --> 00:07:08,136
-You know, you want to go
down to at least 220.
-Yeah.
174
00:07:18,023 --> 00:07:19,872
What is this, Junior?
175
00:07:19,874 --> 00:07:21,224
-[Shorty] I don't know.
Open it up, man.
-Another Cutlass, man.
176
00:07:21,300 --> 00:07:22,901
[Junior] You got to start
with the biggest one first.
177
00:07:22,977 --> 00:07:24,277
[Shorty] Junior,
he knows how to do it.
178
00:07:26,990 --> 00:07:28,156
Ah, they played us.
179
00:07:29,159 --> 00:07:30,950
It's just a bunch of papers.
180
00:07:30,952 --> 00:07:32,660
Let's see what
the fender looks like.
181
00:07:34,289 --> 00:07:35,455
Let's give Shorty
all the papers.
182
00:07:36,333 --> 00:07:38,166
[Shorty] Oh, my God.
183
00:07:41,379 --> 00:07:43,087
-That'll save you some time.
-Hey, man.
184
00:07:43,757 --> 00:07:45,340
That actually looks
pretty good.
185
00:07:45,759 --> 00:07:46,966
Shorty, you like it?
186
00:07:46,968 --> 00:07:48,167
Shoot, man.
187
00:07:48,169 --> 00:07:51,221
These are badass resto
parts here, man.
188
00:07:51,297 --> 00:07:53,097
That man's taller than me.
189
00:07:53,099 --> 00:07:55,892
It don't take much
for anything to be
taller than you.
190
00:07:55,894 --> 00:07:57,060
-Or me.
-[Raul laughs] Yeah.
191
00:07:57,062 --> 00:07:58,645
[all laugh]
192
00:08:00,482 --> 00:08:01,940
Raul, he was working
on this fender,
193
00:08:01,942 --> 00:08:03,233
but it turned out
to be terrible.
194
00:08:03,235 --> 00:08:04,417
We can't use this fender.
195
00:08:04,419 --> 00:08:07,195
We decided to get
a new fender for it.
196
00:08:07,197 --> 00:08:09,239
We're just fixing to try
on the new one and see
how it works.
197
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:11,783
Obviously this car has been
198
00:08:11,785 --> 00:08:13,910
a little more than
a fender bender in its life
199
00:08:13,912 --> 00:08:15,227
We don't even know
if these are
200
00:08:15,229 --> 00:08:16,871
the original fenders
for the case.
201
00:08:16,873 --> 00:08:19,874
They look like they might
have been a few cars
before this one.
202
00:08:19,951 --> 00:08:23,586
But this time around,
we're gonna get brand new,
virgin fenders
203
00:08:23,588 --> 00:08:24,771
from Original Parts Group.
204
00:08:24,773 --> 00:08:27,048
They look like
they're gonna be good.
205
00:08:28,468 --> 00:08:30,843
Take your hand out
from back there,
yeah, there you go.
206
00:08:30,887 --> 00:08:32,178
Push the fender this way.
207
00:08:32,931 --> 00:08:34,347
That's good.
208
00:08:35,308 --> 00:08:36,808
Yeah, put the shims in there.
209
00:08:36,884 --> 00:08:38,351
This one here goes
under there.
210
00:08:39,062 --> 00:08:41,271
Try to get these shims
back under here.
211
00:08:42,148 --> 00:08:43,481
It's kind of a tight spot.
212
00:08:43,483 --> 00:08:45,692
As you can see,
the gap is way too big.
213
00:08:46,570 --> 00:08:48,403
So we need to close
the fender this way
214
00:08:48,405 --> 00:08:49,720
a little bit right now.
215
00:08:49,798 --> 00:08:51,573
You always have to have
tricks up your sleeve.
216
00:08:51,649 --> 00:08:53,157
It's, uh, in order
to make parts fit.
217
00:08:53,159 --> 00:08:55,368
Little bit more, right there.
218
00:08:56,621 --> 00:08:58,162
Let's just close
the gap for now.
219
00:08:58,164 --> 00:08:59,581
One side at a time.
220
00:08:59,657 --> 00:09:01,457
You see how our gap
just closed up?
221
00:09:02,836 --> 00:09:04,711
It's looking better
by the minute.
222
00:09:04,713 --> 00:09:06,170
All right, hold on, Charlie.
223
00:09:06,247 --> 00:09:08,298
Let me loosen it up.
Don't waste your strength yet.
224
00:09:08,374 --> 00:09:09,740
[Charlie] I'm not, I'm not.
225
00:09:09,742 --> 00:09:12,218
-You just tell me when.
-[Shorty] Come on. "When."
226
00:09:12,220 --> 00:09:15,346
I bet right about now,
you're saying, "Where is
your damn speed wrench?"
227
00:09:15,348 --> 00:09:16,889
-[Charlie laughs]
-Right?
228
00:09:16,933 --> 00:09:18,683
Man, look at...
look how close that is.
229
00:09:18,685 --> 00:09:19,976
[Charlie] Oh, yeah,
that's real close.
230
00:09:21,646 --> 00:09:23,271
-But check it out, man.
-Yeah.
231
00:09:23,815 --> 00:09:25,273
[Shorty] Not too bad.
232
00:09:26,985 --> 00:09:28,526
So, what did Arturo say, man?
233
00:09:28,528 --> 00:09:31,070
So, he wants us to come over,
take a look at this motor
234
00:09:31,114 --> 00:09:32,739
for Vardon's Cutlass.
235
00:09:34,034 --> 00:09:35,867
Just keep in mind
we came to get a motor.
236
00:09:35,869 --> 00:09:40,455
The motor I got is a 2003
5.3 LS motor.
237
00:09:40,457 --> 00:09:41,748
-What's up, Arturo?
-How's it going?
238
00:09:41,750 --> 00:09:43,750
-Been a while, homie.
-Yes, sir.
239
00:09:43,752 --> 00:09:45,126
-Been all right?
Good to see you.
-Yes, sir.
240
00:09:45,128 --> 00:09:46,210
What you got, man?
241
00:09:46,212 --> 00:09:47,920
Just cleaning up the Impala,
242
00:09:47,922 --> 00:09:49,464
getting it ready for
a little show on Saturday.
243
00:09:49,466 --> 00:09:50,965
[Pete] We like Impalas.
244
00:09:50,967 --> 00:09:53,343
-'66?
-'66, yes, sir.
245
00:09:53,345 --> 00:09:55,386
-Focus, Pete. Focus, bro.
-P27.
246
00:09:56,139 --> 00:09:57,430
[Joel] What, why are we here?
247
00:09:57,432 --> 00:09:59,641
For the motor, not the car.
248
00:10:04,272 --> 00:10:05,980
Hey, let's look at some cars.
249
00:10:06,057 --> 00:10:07,482
[Joel] Let's go look
at this motor, man.
250
00:10:07,484 --> 00:10:08,733
So, we're here for a motor,
251
00:10:08,735 --> 00:10:11,527
5.3 4L60
automatic transmission
252
00:10:11,604 --> 00:10:14,572
that we plan on sliding
in this Cutlass.
253
00:10:14,649 --> 00:10:16,824
-Uh--
-We're gonna slide it in?
254
00:10:16,901 --> 00:10:18,159
Well, it's not gonna be...
255
00:10:18,161 --> 00:10:19,786
We thought we were
gonna slide it in.
256
00:10:19,788 --> 00:10:21,871
-[Arturo] Wanna pull it out?
-Yeah, let's check it out.
257
00:10:22,707 --> 00:10:24,207
Okay.
258
00:10:24,209 --> 00:10:25,333
[Joel] There we go.
That's cool.
259
00:10:25,335 --> 00:10:27,210
It's all there, all complete.
260
00:10:27,212 --> 00:10:29,587
[Joel] Hey, um, how many miles
are on this thing, man?
261
00:10:29,589 --> 00:10:32,340
[Arturo] Has about 130,000.
262
00:10:32,417 --> 00:10:33,841
They didn't like
changing the oil.
263
00:10:33,843 --> 00:10:35,426
-Or the seals, did they?
-Yeah.
264
00:10:35,428 --> 00:10:36,177
What you think, Ar?
265
00:10:36,179 --> 00:10:37,679
You'll do that two?
266
00:10:37,681 --> 00:10:40,556
-$2,000, yeah,
your buddy.
-[Pete] Let's do it, man.
267
00:10:40,633 --> 00:10:41,516
-It's ours.
-We'll load it up.
268
00:10:41,592 --> 00:10:42,850
Yes, sir.
269
00:10:42,852 --> 00:10:45,353
[Joel] Keep on coming,
come on.
270
00:10:46,147 --> 00:10:48,064
Little more.
271
00:10:48,066 --> 00:10:50,066
So, there's a few things
that do need to be changed.
272
00:10:50,068 --> 00:10:51,859
For right now, it looks okay
273
00:10:51,861 --> 00:10:53,695
It's not the best,
but we're going to find out
274
00:10:53,697 --> 00:10:54,987
once we get it back
to the shop.
275
00:10:57,492 --> 00:10:59,450
I think we can work with this.
276
00:11:03,790 --> 00:11:05,456
[Shorty] We got a new ride
coming into the shop
277
00:11:05,533 --> 00:11:07,291
for minor repairs,
278
00:11:07,293 --> 00:11:10,503
and it belongs to my barber,
he actually cuts my hair.
279
00:11:10,505 --> 00:11:13,047
He just wants to, you know,
update it a little bit.
280
00:11:13,124 --> 00:11:14,623
I'm gonna check it out
281
00:11:14,700 --> 00:11:16,968
and talk it over with him
and see what we can do.
282
00:11:19,597 --> 00:11:21,723
-Damn, boy.
-Hoo-wee!
283
00:11:21,725 --> 00:11:22,807
-What's up, Shorty?
-What's up, Ray?
284
00:11:22,809 --> 00:11:24,350
My name's Raymond Dominguez.
285
00:11:24,394 --> 00:11:26,310
It's a 1953 Chevy Bel Air
286
00:11:26,387 --> 00:11:27,770
that I just purchased
287
00:11:27,805 --> 00:11:29,105
maybe a little over
a year ago, I believe.
288
00:11:29,107 --> 00:11:30,940
-Hey, Joel.
-How you doing, man?
289
00:11:30,942 --> 00:11:32,358
What's going on, Junior?
290
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:34,360
[Shorty] Hey, man, look
at this thing, man.
291
00:11:34,362 --> 00:11:35,945
[Raymond]
What y'all think, huh?
292
00:11:35,947 --> 00:11:39,157
-Hey, man, this my style
right here, man.
-Yeah?
293
00:11:39,159 --> 00:11:40,533
Think you could put
some of your touches on it?
294
00:11:40,535 --> 00:11:41,909
Hell, yeah.
295
00:11:41,986 --> 00:11:43,786
I'm gonna take care of
this car, I'm gonna value it,
296
00:11:43,788 --> 00:11:45,121
you know what I mean?
Classic cars are getting
297
00:11:45,123 --> 00:11:46,706
harder and harder
to come by now.
298
00:11:46,708 --> 00:11:48,249
You've come
to the right place, brother.
299
00:11:48,251 --> 00:11:49,625
[Ray] You're the best, man.
300
00:11:49,627 --> 00:11:51,169
What are we doing
inside of it?
301
00:11:52,338 --> 00:11:54,088
[Joel] Let's see,
let's see, man.
302
00:11:54,090 --> 00:11:56,841
Looks like she needs
some digital gauges too, huh?
303
00:11:56,918 --> 00:11:58,426
Maybe a little sound system?
304
00:11:58,428 --> 00:11:59,469
Yeah, I gotta have some tunes.
305
00:11:59,471 --> 00:12:00,803
There's plenty of time
306
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:02,597
to get Short dog
on this thing.
307
00:12:02,673 --> 00:12:04,390
Oh, me and Joel
go back, way back.
308
00:12:04,392 --> 00:12:06,058
And now he hooked up
with Shorty,
309
00:12:06,060 --> 00:12:07,626
and Shorty's big
in the car world.
310
00:12:07,628 --> 00:12:10,480
We'll look at everything else
that you want done on it,
311
00:12:10,482 --> 00:12:13,983
and then if it's something
feasible that we can do
right now,
312
00:12:13,985 --> 00:12:15,668
we'll do it.
313
00:12:15,670 --> 00:12:18,196
We're going to update this
Bel Air with digital gauges
314
00:12:18,198 --> 00:12:20,031
and give it
a badass sound system.
315
00:12:20,033 --> 00:12:22,074
Just a blessing just to
be able to bring the car
316
00:12:22,076 --> 00:12:23,409
into Shorty's shop, man,
317
00:12:23,411 --> 00:12:25,119
and watch him do
his magic on it.
318
00:12:25,154 --> 00:12:27,622
I'm overdue for a haircut,
and I need to go see him.
319
00:12:27,624 --> 00:12:31,626
If Shorty gets my car
looking clean, I'll have him
looking clean.
320
00:12:31,628 --> 00:12:33,711
Let's go write it up,
and we'll get on it.
321
00:12:33,713 --> 00:12:35,171
Get out here, Junior.
322
00:12:38,843 --> 00:12:41,719
[Pedro] We got the seat
for the '71 Cutlass.
323
00:12:41,721 --> 00:12:45,264
Customer's asked to keep it
the same OG look, original.
324
00:12:45,266 --> 00:12:46,724
From me looking at it,
325
00:12:46,726 --> 00:12:48,684
foam and everything
feels good.
326
00:12:50,313 --> 00:12:52,063
Well, me and Manuel
gonna start turning down
327
00:12:52,065 --> 00:12:53,356
the front door panels.
328
00:12:53,358 --> 00:12:55,399
And as you can see,
it has the...
329
00:12:56,277 --> 00:12:58,444
cowboy western look.
330
00:12:58,446 --> 00:12:59,904
[Noel] On the trim pieces
for the skirts,
331
00:12:59,906 --> 00:13:01,864
we're gonna try
to save the piping.
332
00:13:02,992 --> 00:13:06,202
As you can see, it's already
brittle, cracking,
333
00:13:06,279 --> 00:13:10,373
and you got water stains,
everything happening here.
334
00:13:11,334 --> 00:13:13,543
[Noel] Being that the custom
wants that same color,
335
00:13:13,619 --> 00:13:16,087
it's kind of hard to find
that same piping.
336
00:13:16,163 --> 00:13:18,756
We'll try to get it off
as best as we can.
337
00:13:20,844 --> 00:13:22,218
To replace it with,
338
00:13:22,220 --> 00:13:25,054
we're gonna use a ABS board
with some clips.
339
00:13:25,056 --> 00:13:27,974
This will stand water,
heat for this car,
340
00:13:27,976 --> 00:13:29,475
being a convertible.
341
00:13:37,193 --> 00:13:39,068
Noel and Manuel
tore these down,
342
00:13:39,070 --> 00:13:41,445
so what I'm seeing
is the pads.
343
00:13:43,157 --> 00:13:44,866
Perfect condition.
344
00:13:48,788 --> 00:13:52,874
We're gonna take that burlap
off and paint in the frame,
345
00:13:52,876 --> 00:13:54,584
and then we'll put
a carpet back there
346
00:13:54,660 --> 00:13:56,085
just to reinforce it.
347
00:13:59,799 --> 00:14:01,173
We're not going
to be using any of this.
348
00:14:01,175 --> 00:14:04,135
This is all our pattern
once we unstitch it.
349
00:14:04,211 --> 00:14:06,262
Drop the patterns,
they're no good.
350
00:14:13,062 --> 00:14:15,104
Ah, just leave it right there.
351
00:14:16,316 --> 00:14:18,774
We got to salvage as much
as we can, bro.
352
00:14:18,776 --> 00:14:20,401
I ain't using
the harness, dog.
353
00:14:20,403 --> 00:14:21,652
-[Joel] You sure?
-[David] Positive.
354
00:14:22,530 --> 00:14:24,572
-Finish?
-[Joel] Uh, no.
355
00:14:24,991 --> 00:14:26,690
[sighs]
356
00:14:28,244 --> 00:14:31,913
So, once we give it a bath
and clean it up a little bit
357
00:14:31,915 --> 00:14:35,958
we'll crack, take the intake
and take the valve covers of
358
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:37,234
check that,
359
00:14:37,236 --> 00:14:38,878
and if it doesn't
look good there,
360
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:40,087
we'll go a little deeper.
361
00:14:40,164 --> 00:14:41,839
[Junior] We unplug
those projectors.
362
00:14:43,176 --> 00:14:45,593
[Joel] As long as anything's
not dry and scarred up,
363
00:14:45,595 --> 00:14:46,636
should be fine.
364
00:14:48,681 --> 00:14:51,265
-Pretty bad.
-Look right here.
365
00:14:51,267 --> 00:14:53,225
Gunk's from not
changing the oil.
366
00:14:53,227 --> 00:14:56,020
The cam has little
splotches on it,
367
00:14:56,022 --> 00:14:58,397
usually meaning
that it's gotten hot
368
00:14:58,441 --> 00:15:01,275
and a lot of that's created
from poor oil pressure.
369
00:15:02,987 --> 00:15:05,321
What's it look like, Joel?
370
00:15:05,398 --> 00:15:07,448
[Joel] Uh, doesn't look lik
I'd like it to look.
371
00:15:15,375 --> 00:15:18,042
Usually when you start
seeing, like, wear like these,
372
00:15:18,044 --> 00:15:20,169
-like the cams,
how worn it is...
-[Shorty] Mmm.
373
00:15:20,171 --> 00:15:21,754
[Joel] ...it's usually,
you know...
374
00:15:21,756 --> 00:15:24,215
signs of not keeping up
with the oil changes,
375
00:15:24,291 --> 00:15:25,383
stuff like that.
376
00:15:25,385 --> 00:15:28,135
Do you think
it can be worth it?
377
00:15:28,137 --> 00:15:29,679
-Changing the can?
-Oh, yeah.
378
00:15:29,681 --> 00:15:31,305
Yeah, it's worth it.
379
00:15:31,307 --> 00:15:32,932
If you're driving like normal,
Short dog,
380
00:15:32,934 --> 00:15:35,267
this thing will last,
you know, for a long time.
381
00:15:35,311 --> 00:15:37,770
It's not a junk motor
by any means.
382
00:15:37,897 --> 00:15:39,939
Lot of motors running
in America right now
383
00:15:39,941 --> 00:15:41,598
look just like this.
384
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,276
I'm confident that we can
bring it back from the dead
385
00:15:44,278 --> 00:15:47,071
It's just, um,
I'm a little blue right now.
386
00:15:47,073 --> 00:15:50,741
I've seen too much
of its inside.
387
00:16:02,505 --> 00:16:03,921
Yeah, baby.
388
00:16:03,923 --> 00:16:05,965
I just came off the boulevard.
389
00:16:07,343 --> 00:16:09,719
Hey, Joel. You look good
in this car, man.
390
00:16:09,795 --> 00:16:11,512
So, you gonna let me
dig into it first?
391
00:16:11,514 --> 00:16:13,180
[Shorty] Yeah.
392
00:16:13,182 --> 00:16:16,267
First and foremost we gotta
put some gauges in for Ray.
393
00:16:18,896 --> 00:16:21,355
[Joel] So, we just pulled i
Raymond's 53,
394
00:16:21,432 --> 00:16:22,815
and we're excited
about the car
395
00:16:22,817 --> 00:16:24,007
but nervous about the work.
396
00:16:24,009 --> 00:16:26,027
Apparently someone
went in there
397
00:16:26,029 --> 00:16:28,904
and they created a bed,
a bed of wires.
398
00:16:28,981 --> 00:16:31,323
I didn't realize the gauges
weren't in there,
399
00:16:31,325 --> 00:16:34,076
and I'm like, this dude's been
driving round without gauges!
400
00:16:34,153 --> 00:16:36,746
Oh, man. Junior,
come check out this gauge.
401
00:16:36,748 --> 00:16:39,331
Dude, look at this bad boy.
402
00:16:39,333 --> 00:16:40,624
[wolf whistles]
403
00:16:40,626 --> 00:16:41,825
God.
404
00:16:41,827 --> 00:16:44,712
-Dude, that's pretty bad-ass.
-Mmm-hmm.
405
00:16:44,789 --> 00:16:47,757
Hell yeah. Let's go see
how this thing fits.
406
00:16:54,223 --> 00:16:56,557
Yeah, baby.
407
00:16:56,559 --> 00:16:58,684
We're gonna put
a digital dash.
408
00:16:58,728 --> 00:17:00,544
Let me see that.
409
00:17:00,546 --> 00:17:02,313
All that means is we're gonn
make it a little more modern
410
00:17:02,315 --> 00:17:04,106
Get something
he can read in here
411
00:17:04,108 --> 00:17:06,358
'cause right now, you know,
he can't read nothing.
412
00:17:06,402 --> 00:17:08,110
Hold the trim real quick.
413
00:17:08,112 --> 00:17:10,738
Let me see if I can get
my hand through there.
414
00:17:10,740 --> 00:17:12,948
Oh, I see it, I see it.
415
00:17:12,950 --> 00:17:14,492
Okay, there we go.
416
00:17:14,494 --> 00:17:17,661
Oh, man. Look at that, bro.
417
00:17:18,414 --> 00:17:20,956
[laughs]
418
00:17:23,628 --> 00:17:25,795
This is the core support
for the '71 Cutlass.
419
00:17:25,797 --> 00:17:27,546
As you can see,
it's got a little damage.
420
00:17:27,548 --> 00:17:29,381
We're gonna clean this up.
421
00:17:29,383 --> 00:17:31,217
We have to send this off
to powder coating,
422
00:17:31,219 --> 00:17:32,843
but definitely don't want
to send it off like this.
423
00:17:34,806 --> 00:17:36,514
We're trying to get
a real nice,
424
00:17:36,516 --> 00:17:37,823
clean look out of this car,
425
00:17:37,825 --> 00:17:39,517
and this is just
not gonna cut it.
426
00:17:39,519 --> 00:17:41,018
We're gonna go over it
and make sure
427
00:17:41,020 --> 00:17:42,603
nothing else
needs to be repaired,
428
00:17:42,605 --> 00:17:45,147
and then we'll send it off
to powder coat.
429
00:17:46,818 --> 00:17:49,110
This is not
a very difficult repair.
430
00:17:49,186 --> 00:17:51,070
You don't wanna overthink it
431
00:17:54,117 --> 00:17:55,574
I'm gonna do this
in two pieces
432
00:17:55,618 --> 00:17:57,743
just because
there's an inner piece in here
433
00:17:57,745 --> 00:17:59,161
that we're gonna lay first.
434
00:17:59,163 --> 00:18:01,539
And then we'll lay
the second piece on top.
435
00:18:04,043 --> 00:18:07,169
The quickest, if you can see
the edges are real jagged,
436
00:18:07,246 --> 00:18:09,588
I'm gonna try to flatten
this out just by...
437
00:18:09,590 --> 00:18:11,465
with a hammer and dolly,
438
00:18:11,542 --> 00:18:13,050
before I start any welding.
439
00:18:13,052 --> 00:18:15,511
You can see now it's all flat.
440
00:18:15,513 --> 00:18:17,179
We got that piece to go down.
441
00:18:17,181 --> 00:18:18,681
And as you're welding this in,
442
00:18:18,757 --> 00:18:21,392
you can come over and drop
a weld on top of that
443
00:18:21,394 --> 00:18:22,893
and then just grind it down.
444
00:18:30,570 --> 00:18:32,945
Now you can see
we got it all trewed up.
445
00:18:32,989 --> 00:18:34,822
Basically just kinda
created squares
446
00:18:34,824 --> 00:18:36,866
so you got
a good, even section
447
00:18:36,868 --> 00:18:38,826
from side to side
to be able to work with.
448
00:18:38,828 --> 00:18:39,994
That way
you don't have to make
449
00:18:39,996 --> 00:18:41,495
any funny cuts
or anything like that.
450
00:18:41,497 --> 00:18:42,663
When you're going to do bends
451
00:18:42,665 --> 00:18:44,331
you always wanna leave it
a little long,
452
00:18:44,333 --> 00:18:46,292
just in case
you miss the bend.
453
00:18:46,294 --> 00:18:48,294
We got it in there.
Matches really well.
454
00:19:00,850 --> 00:19:03,225
So, the core support is done.
Came out great.
455
00:19:03,227 --> 00:19:06,228
I'm really pleased
with the finish.
456
00:19:06,230 --> 00:19:08,772
Now just get it ready and se
it off to powder coat.
457
00:19:09,317 --> 00:19:11,317
-Joel!
-What's up, brother?
458
00:19:11,319 --> 00:19:12,776
-Not much, man.
-Ooh, man.
459
00:19:12,778 --> 00:19:14,904
-I got you a surprise.
-I see it, man.
460
00:19:15,022 --> 00:19:16,572
-God!
-I hope you like it.
461
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:18,782
Wow, Juan.
462
00:19:18,784 --> 00:19:19,891
Just for you.
463
00:19:19,893 --> 00:19:21,952
I mean, that thing
is smooth, man.
464
00:19:21,954 --> 00:19:24,038
-[Juan chuckles]
-Cor!
465
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,498
Man, the customer
is gonna trip
466
00:19:26,500 --> 00:19:28,250
-when he sees this, man.
-I hope so.
467
00:19:36,719 --> 00:19:38,886
I'm helping Junior get this
motor together real quick.
468
00:19:38,963 --> 00:19:40,262
Trying to get it done
by the end of the day
469
00:19:40,264 --> 00:19:41,764
so we can get it
back to the dog
470
00:19:41,766 --> 00:19:44,266
so we can get this thing
painted hopefully tomorrow.
471
00:19:50,566 --> 00:19:53,108
Before, the motor looked lik
it had a trillion miles on i
472
00:19:53,110 --> 00:19:54,610
And a lot of that
is just because
473
00:19:54,612 --> 00:19:56,237
it was mistaken care of.
474
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:00,482
This side
we haven't finished cleaning
475
00:20:00,484 --> 00:20:02,451
but you can see
how much of the crud
476
00:20:02,528 --> 00:20:04,870
from dirty oil stays inside
477
00:20:04,872 --> 00:20:06,288
The reason why you change th
478
00:20:06,290 --> 00:20:07,998
is 'cause every time
you change that,
479
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:09,750
you're filtering out
that dirt.
480
00:20:17,176 --> 00:20:20,302
That will basically complete
the trunnion install.
481
00:20:20,304 --> 00:20:21,887
So we got all our
new trunnions set in there
482
00:20:21,931 --> 00:20:23,097
with our lockers on there.
483
00:20:23,099 --> 00:20:25,641
Vardon's gonna have
his shiny shoes on
484
00:20:25,643 --> 00:20:27,851
and he's gonna be ready
to get on that gas pedal
485
00:20:27,853 --> 00:20:30,104
and give everybody
the ride of their life.
486
00:20:33,776 --> 00:20:36,735
God dang, man!
487
00:20:36,737 --> 00:20:38,570
-Wanna get a lesson?
-Yeah.
488
00:20:38,572 --> 00:20:40,281
Show me how.
489
00:20:40,357 --> 00:20:41,949
So, Vardon's motor
needs a cam.
490
00:20:41,951 --> 00:20:43,575
Today we're gonna take
Wayne to school
491
00:20:43,577 --> 00:20:45,327
and learn how to put a cam in.
492
00:20:45,404 --> 00:20:48,205
Grab the cam, man. So you're
gonna gently pull it out.
493
00:20:48,282 --> 00:20:49,581
What you wanna do
is picture it
494
00:20:49,583 --> 00:20:51,458
coming out
in a perfect cylinder.
495
00:20:51,460 --> 00:20:52,835
And you gotta, like,
hold it up.
496
00:20:52,911 --> 00:20:54,295
There you go.
497
00:20:54,297 --> 00:20:56,130
Real nice and slow.
498
00:20:56,206 --> 00:20:57,381
Gently.
499
00:20:57,383 --> 00:20:58,799
[Joel] It doesn't look
too bad.
500
00:20:58,801 --> 00:21:01,468
Don't drop this on the joint.
501
00:21:03,180 --> 00:21:04,596
Junior, is this
a different cam
502
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:06,515
from the other one
we pulled out?
503
00:21:06,517 --> 00:21:10,436
Yeah, so this is pretty much,
like, one notch up from stock.
504
00:21:10,438 --> 00:21:12,271
What side goes in first?
505
00:21:12,273 --> 00:21:13,772
[Joel] Spin it around.
506
00:21:13,816 --> 00:21:15,607
Soak her in there.
507
00:21:15,609 --> 00:21:17,776
All right. Wait, wait, wait.
508
00:21:17,862 --> 00:21:19,028
Now turn it a couple times.
509
00:21:19,030 --> 00:21:21,071
Just to make sure
that bearing's soaked.
510
00:21:21,148 --> 00:21:22,865
Yeah, you got some
good clearance in there?
511
00:21:22,867 --> 00:21:24,408
Yeah.
512
00:21:24,410 --> 00:21:25,659
It went in!
513
00:21:25,661 --> 00:21:26,777
Damn!
514
00:21:26,779 --> 00:21:28,537
[Joel] My man.
Hold on. Like this.
515
00:21:31,584 --> 00:21:32,666
What do you think?
516
00:21:33,627 --> 00:21:34,752
I'm out, guys.
517
00:21:37,214 --> 00:21:38,580
Hey, Joel.
518
00:21:38,582 --> 00:21:41,008
Vardon said that he wanted
some flair in this motor,
519
00:21:41,010 --> 00:21:44,053
like, a motor that ain't
no one's seen before.
520
00:21:44,055 --> 00:21:45,471
So what do you think, man?
521
00:21:45,473 --> 00:21:47,973
We got flair,
and then we got...
522
00:21:48,434 --> 00:21:49,975
[both] Flair.
523
00:21:49,977 --> 00:21:51,852
-What's it look like?
-See what you think.
524
00:21:52,688 --> 00:21:54,271
You think that's enough flair,
525
00:21:54,273 --> 00:21:55,773
or should we put more flair?
526
00:21:55,775 --> 00:21:56,774
Put it on.
527
00:21:57,360 --> 00:21:59,151
Put that on.
528
00:21:59,153 --> 00:21:59,943
-All right.
-I can't wait to see it.
529
00:21:59,945 --> 00:22:02,087
Bling-bling.
530
00:22:16,629 --> 00:22:19,296
[Joel] Shorty just finished
painting the motor
for the '71 Cutlass.
531
00:22:19,298 --> 00:22:20,697
Now it's time
for me and Junior
532
00:22:20,774 --> 00:22:22,608
to get this serpentine syste
on the front,
533
00:22:22,610 --> 00:22:24,968
put this motor together,
and get it back
in the Cutlass.
534
00:22:26,222 --> 00:22:28,222
Mark that lower one just so
if we have a brain fart,
535
00:22:28,298 --> 00:22:29,798
we know it's torqued.
536
00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:32,601
What we do is
usually mark them
with a paint marker.
537
00:22:32,603 --> 00:22:34,269
Usually, we prefer
to use white,
538
00:22:34,346 --> 00:22:35,720
because sometimes, you know,
539
00:22:35,722 --> 00:22:37,398
down in the engine
compartments, it's kinda dark,
540
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:39,775
and the white, you can
see with the flashlight.
541
00:22:41,237 --> 00:22:42,861
-Mmm-hmm.
-[Junior] Here,
let me hold it.
542
00:22:43,697 --> 00:22:45,188
Man, are you kidding me?
543
00:22:45,265 --> 00:22:47,074
I'll tell you one thing.
They make their belts tight.
544
00:22:48,494 --> 00:22:50,327
[sighs]
545
00:22:50,404 --> 00:22:51,954
-[Junior] They going off?
-Almost.
546
00:22:52,248 --> 00:22:53,247
[sighs]
547
00:22:59,255 --> 00:23:00,904
That's beautiful, man.
548
00:23:00,906 --> 00:23:02,965
-It actually came out
really nice.
-[Shorty] I like it.
549
00:23:03,467 --> 00:23:04,833
There you go.
550
00:23:06,011 --> 00:23:08,429
It's actually a really nice
color for the motor.
551
00:23:08,431 --> 00:23:09,763
Whoever looks at that car,
552
00:23:09,765 --> 00:23:11,490
when they go open the hood,
553
00:23:11,492 --> 00:23:13,767
this is the last thing
they're gonna expect,
am I right?
554
00:23:13,769 --> 00:23:14,935
-Yeah.
-So when they see it,
555
00:23:14,937 --> 00:23:16,770
they're literally
gonna go like that.
556
00:23:23,487 --> 00:23:25,070
[Shorty whistles]
557
00:23:27,158 --> 00:23:29,658
-It's done.
-Here's more work.
558
00:23:29,660 --> 00:23:31,952
As if y'all didn't
have enough, right?
559
00:23:31,954 --> 00:23:33,412
Man, for a small, little car,
560
00:23:33,414 --> 00:23:34,371
it has a bunch
of little things.
561
00:23:34,373 --> 00:23:35,363
[Raul] All the metal.
562
00:23:35,365 --> 00:23:38,041
Well, you know
how it is, Raul.
563
00:23:38,043 --> 00:23:39,960
The smaller the car,
564
00:23:39,962 --> 00:23:41,795
-the more problems you have.
-[Raul] Yeah.
565
00:23:41,797 --> 00:23:43,046
[chuckles]
566
00:23:43,123 --> 00:23:45,674
You did an amazing job
under here, Raul.
567
00:23:45,676 --> 00:23:47,092
Thank you. Yeah, man, I try.
568
00:23:48,637 --> 00:23:51,346
[horn blaring]
569
00:23:52,057 --> 00:23:53,432
It's party time.
570
00:23:53,476 --> 00:23:54,850
Block time.
571
00:24:04,236 --> 00:24:05,986
That's what we're having
this block party for.
572
00:24:05,988 --> 00:24:07,279
You know, to have a good time.
573
00:24:07,281 --> 00:24:08,739
That's why
it's called a party.
574
00:24:17,583 --> 00:24:18,916
All in all,
575
00:24:18,918 --> 00:24:21,335
I'm happy everybody came,
and they pitched in.
576
00:24:21,411 --> 00:24:22,544
They did a really good job.
577
00:24:22,546 --> 00:24:23,712
Mmm, mmm!
578
00:24:26,884 --> 00:24:28,509
It's that time again.
579
00:24:28,511 --> 00:24:30,552
We have our '71 Cutlass
in the booth...
580
00:24:34,350 --> 00:24:37,100
...which is, uh,
pure excitement.
581
00:24:39,772 --> 00:24:41,855
We're fixing the, uh, mixer.
582
00:24:41,857 --> 00:24:46,068
Some white base, and then
we're gonna put a little twi
on this car.
583
00:24:46,070 --> 00:24:48,904
We're gonna do a little bit
of a black over the white.
584
00:24:48,906 --> 00:24:50,280
But then,
585
00:24:50,282 --> 00:24:52,574
we're gonna put another twist
on it for Vardon.
586
00:24:52,651 --> 00:24:54,243
I'm gonna leave that
as a surprise.
587
00:24:54,245 --> 00:24:56,203
But first of all,
588
00:24:56,205 --> 00:24:59,456
we're gonna put
some, like, racy-looking,
muscley skim on it.
589
00:24:59,533 --> 00:25:01,375
And then we're gonna put
something else after that
590
00:25:01,451 --> 00:25:04,753
that I think Vardon,
uh, is gonna love,
591
00:25:04,755 --> 00:25:06,588
and it's probably
what he's looking for.
592
00:25:07,424 --> 00:25:08,790
Wish me luck.
593
00:25:44,044 --> 00:25:46,128
[Joel] We're moving along
great on the '53.
594
00:25:46,130 --> 00:25:48,046
We're down
to the kick pedals now.
595
00:25:48,048 --> 00:25:49,998
As you can see,
this is the stock setup.
596
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:53,093
We're gonna take that,
and we're gonna come in
with something like this.
597
00:25:53,095 --> 00:25:55,012
Right now, we're just
gonna size it up.
598
00:25:55,014 --> 00:25:56,972
But, so you can kinda see
what we're going for.
599
00:25:56,974 --> 00:25:58,181
The speaker will go in here.
600
00:25:58,258 --> 00:26:00,100
We'll put a design
in this area.
601
00:26:06,317 --> 00:26:08,734
There's our blank.
There's our template.
602
00:26:13,490 --> 00:26:15,699
When you're in a hurry,
this will speed things up.
603
00:26:15,701 --> 00:26:18,243
So, you can take your jigsaw,
flip it upside down.
604
00:26:19,955 --> 00:26:21,513
That easy.
605
00:26:35,512 --> 00:26:39,181
A nice little line,
it should keep it
kinda even.
606
00:26:39,183 --> 00:26:41,808
So generally, I like
to build something
607
00:26:41,810 --> 00:26:43,268
that kinda looks kinda stock
608
00:26:43,312 --> 00:26:44,770
I don't want to get too fanc
609
00:26:44,772 --> 00:26:47,397
The car's not real
fully custom, custom.
610
00:26:47,474 --> 00:26:51,276
So, you wanna make sure
that you make something
that kinda blends away.
611
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:53,862
This is going in there
really nice.
612
00:27:02,706 --> 00:27:04,581
[Shorty] Well, we're lookin
really good on this Cutlass
613
00:27:04,658 --> 00:27:06,458
We decided to put a little,
614
00:27:06,460 --> 00:27:09,211
just something that will make
the car pop a little more.
615
00:27:09,287 --> 00:27:12,339
And I think
these little touches
will set the car off
616
00:27:12,341 --> 00:27:14,591
and give it that
muscley, racy look,
617
00:27:14,593 --> 00:27:16,343
even though it's not gonna be
a racecar.
618
00:27:16,345 --> 00:27:18,679
It's just gonna be
a normal cruiser
going down the road,
619
00:27:18,681 --> 00:27:20,097
but it'll just look good.
620
00:27:20,173 --> 00:27:23,058
That first line is
really the critical line,
621
00:27:23,060 --> 00:27:26,228
and then after that,
all the other lines
come naturally.
622
00:27:26,230 --> 00:27:28,897
I have the stick-on
measuring tape,
623
00:27:28,899 --> 00:27:30,649
and I can put it on here...
624
00:27:32,653 --> 00:27:36,238
...and measure exactly
for the other side.
625
00:27:36,314 --> 00:27:38,573
So when I put my other line,
626
00:27:38,575 --> 00:27:40,409
I got my markers right there.
627
00:27:40,411 --> 00:27:42,119
You stick a little bit
on there,
628
00:27:42,913 --> 00:27:44,287
and then you come over here...
629
00:27:46,959 --> 00:27:48,166
...and then you lay it down.
630
00:27:52,131 --> 00:27:54,214
And you go up.
631
00:27:54,216 --> 00:27:57,092
You can see that it's
right on the body line.
632
00:27:57,094 --> 00:27:59,010
And like I said,
you gotta be happy with it.
633
00:27:59,012 --> 00:28:01,763
So take it off and put it on
as many times as it takes,
634
00:28:01,765 --> 00:28:04,099
because once you paint it,
635
00:28:04,518 --> 00:28:05,392
that's it.
636
00:28:16,697 --> 00:28:17,904
Damn.
637
00:28:17,906 --> 00:28:19,489
What do y'all think, fellas?
638
00:28:19,566 --> 00:28:21,825
-That looks good.
-That looks amazing.
639
00:28:21,827 --> 00:28:24,119
-[Shorty] You like it?
-That color is right on.
640
00:28:24,121 --> 00:28:25,579
[Shorty] You like it, Joel?
641
00:28:25,581 --> 00:28:28,248
-Right on.
-I like the paint skim
on the hood.
642
00:28:28,250 --> 00:28:29,166
[Joel] Oh, I love it.
643
00:28:29,242 --> 00:28:30,584
If I may say so myself.
644
00:28:30,660 --> 00:28:32,753
It looks fast, you know?
645
00:28:32,755 --> 00:28:34,838
It makes it looks fast
when it's just sitting there.
646
00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,048
[Shorty] Hey, the one thing
that this car did, Joel...
647
00:28:37,050 --> 00:28:38,508
It brought the rain, man.
648
00:28:38,585 --> 00:28:39,843
That's why you gonna
call it Thunder.
649
00:28:39,845 --> 00:28:40,927
Hey, what do
y'all like better,
650
00:28:40,929 --> 00:28:43,221
White Lightning, uh,
or Thunderstruck?
651
00:28:43,223 --> 00:28:45,182
-Uh, I think White Lightning.
-White Lightning, man.
652
00:28:45,184 --> 00:28:46,725
White Lightning, right?
It goes more with it.
653
00:28:46,727 --> 00:28:48,727
It brought
the lightning with it.
654
00:28:48,729 --> 00:28:51,271
I guess, onto the next thing.
I'm gonna clean it up.
655
00:28:52,107 --> 00:28:53,106
I'm gonna get me
some clear ready,
656
00:28:53,108 --> 00:28:54,924
and I'm gonna put
the Wet Wet on it.
657
00:28:54,926 --> 00:28:57,486
-You're gonna put
the Wet Wet on it?
-Gonna put the Wet Wet on it.
658
00:28:57,488 --> 00:28:59,488
-Oh, man...
-Well, we're gonna
get this motor rigged.
659
00:28:59,490 --> 00:29:00,989
-Come on, Wayne.
Give me a hand.
-All right.
660
00:29:24,181 --> 00:29:25,713
[Joel] Any time
you're doing a swap,
661
00:29:25,790 --> 00:29:27,974
there's numerous things
you're gonna encounter.
662
00:29:27,976 --> 00:29:29,059
Just 'cause it tells you
in the book,
663
00:29:29,061 --> 00:29:30,727
"Oh, it'll fit..."
664
00:29:30,729 --> 00:29:34,022
Uh, yeah, it'll fit
with slight modifications.
665
00:29:34,024 --> 00:29:36,107
Been the case with every one
I've ever done.
666
00:29:37,986 --> 00:29:39,820
It's got so much
on the back side.
667
00:29:39,896 --> 00:29:42,614
I know it. There's no way
that motor goes that far back.
668
00:29:42,616 --> 00:29:44,574
[Joel] Well, it's not fitting.
669
00:29:44,576 --> 00:29:46,034
The instructions said
it would fit...
670
00:29:46,111 --> 00:29:47,619
[laughs]
671
00:29:47,621 --> 00:29:49,788
...and, um, it's not fitting.
672
00:29:49,790 --> 00:29:51,665
We can't go too much
farther anyways.
673
00:29:51,667 --> 00:29:54,000
That oil pan's about
to smack across the...
674
00:29:54,002 --> 00:29:55,377
[sighs]
675
00:29:56,505 --> 00:29:58,088
At this point,
we just need to, uh,
676
00:29:58,090 --> 00:30:01,508
figure out what
we're gonna remove
to make it work.
677
00:30:01,510 --> 00:30:03,844
We're running into the brakes
with these valve covers.
678
00:30:03,846 --> 00:30:05,011
Well...
679
00:30:06,056 --> 00:30:07,264
...I guess we got our answer.
680
00:30:07,266 --> 00:30:09,140
-Let's pull it out.
-All right, sure.
681
00:30:09,852 --> 00:30:11,910
-Let's get it out.
-Get it out.
682
00:30:20,237 --> 00:30:22,612
[Joel] Went ahead
and decided we're gonna
shave the firewall.
683
00:30:22,614 --> 00:30:23,655
It just looks really bad,
684
00:30:23,699 --> 00:30:25,056
and to patch it in,
685
00:30:25,058 --> 00:30:26,515
we're just gonna waste
too much time.
686
00:30:26,517 --> 00:30:28,118
So I figured we'd just
plate the whole thing off.
687
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:29,828
We'll just kill two birds
with one stone.
688
00:30:29,830 --> 00:30:31,705
We'll make the whole
firewall smooth,
689
00:30:31,781 --> 00:30:32,730
and it'll give us
the clearance
690
00:30:32,732 --> 00:30:33,915
that we need for the motor,
691
00:30:33,917 --> 00:30:35,959
and it's just a win-win.
692
00:30:37,963 --> 00:30:39,754
We've got our template.
We've got our firewall.
693
00:30:39,756 --> 00:30:40,797
Everything's good.
694
00:30:40,799 --> 00:30:42,048
I like what I see,
695
00:30:42,125 --> 00:30:44,134
and some of the things
that you could do, um,
696
00:30:44,136 --> 00:30:47,554
before you start, uh, welding,
is prep your firewall.
697
00:30:47,631 --> 00:30:49,764
Your edges here
will usually be protruded.
698
00:30:49,766 --> 00:30:52,142
Make sure that you go over
the whole firewall,
699
00:30:52,144 --> 00:30:54,269
and make sure
that you kinda rub it.
700
00:30:54,346 --> 00:30:56,271
Make sure you get
all your high spots down.
701
00:31:14,333 --> 00:31:15,332
Did you get our bead on?
702
00:31:15,334 --> 00:31:17,334
We can get our beat on.
703
00:31:17,410 --> 00:31:18,752
You've done this before?
704
00:31:18,754 --> 00:31:19,902
Yeah.
705
00:31:21,548 --> 00:31:23,673
[Joel] Kinda tricky,
finding the angle.
706
00:31:23,750 --> 00:31:25,342
[Shorty] What do you think
about that, Joel?
707
00:31:30,265 --> 00:31:31,222
Check it out, man.
708
00:31:31,266 --> 00:31:32,474
Look at that.
709
00:31:34,144 --> 00:31:36,436
Got kinda grounded
around the edge
710
00:31:36,513 --> 00:31:38,897
of the perimeter
of the new panel.
711
00:31:38,899 --> 00:31:42,067
And that's just to ensure
that we get a good bite
when we weld it.
712
00:31:42,069 --> 00:31:44,069
Once that's done,
then basically,
713
00:31:44,071 --> 00:31:45,737
we can go ahead
and start welding.
714
00:31:47,908 --> 00:31:51,242
Make sure you cover your paint
and especially your glass.
715
00:31:51,244 --> 00:31:53,078
Most people make
the biggest mistake,
716
00:31:53,121 --> 00:31:55,288
start welding on cars
and don't cover up your glas
717
00:31:55,290 --> 00:31:56,790
What happens...
718
00:31:56,792 --> 00:31:58,959
That arc will arc out,
and it'll go over,
719
00:31:58,961 --> 00:32:00,543
All the spill will go over
to your glass
720
00:32:00,620 --> 00:32:02,963
and just bury itself
into your glass.
721
00:32:02,965 --> 00:32:05,548
Once you have that,
the glass is ruined.
722
00:32:16,812 --> 00:32:19,187
This is a quarter-inch
pink cell foam,
723
00:32:19,189 --> 00:32:22,190
and this is close
to a half-inch.
724
00:32:22,192 --> 00:32:25,110
So it's gonna make that
pleated thickness we want
725
00:32:25,153 --> 00:32:26,653
so it won't look just flat,
726
00:32:26,655 --> 00:32:28,738
which is gonna give it
that nice pleat.
727
00:32:29,783 --> 00:32:31,324
The patterns that Manuel get
728
00:32:31,326 --> 00:32:32,158
he'll start
getting them traced
729
00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:33,493
and getting them pleated
730
00:32:33,495 --> 00:32:36,246
so we can start
taking them to get sewed.
731
00:32:36,281 --> 00:32:39,916
I got Manuel cutting it,
measuring, squaring it off
with the square.
732
00:32:39,918 --> 00:32:43,712
I'm fixing to start gluing
the vinyl to the foam.
733
00:32:43,714 --> 00:32:45,630
We're working to make it
special for this guy,
734
00:32:45,674 --> 00:32:48,174
'cause we're putting
double foam on it.
735
00:32:48,176 --> 00:32:50,635
If he's got a flat behind,
736
00:32:50,637 --> 00:32:53,138
he's gonna have
plenty of cushion for that.
737
00:32:54,516 --> 00:32:57,642
So, he's gonna
adjust the machine
to open up the stitch.
738
00:32:57,686 --> 00:33:01,771
That way, it doesn't look like
it's too close to one another.
739
00:33:01,773 --> 00:33:05,734
We like our stitch to look
open and further out.
740
00:33:10,699 --> 00:33:11,823
As you can see,
741
00:33:12,409 --> 00:33:14,534
this looks pulled even.
742
00:33:14,536 --> 00:33:17,454
It doesn't look
like it's turning.
743
00:33:17,530 --> 00:33:20,832
So that's a perfect cover
right here.
744
00:33:24,588 --> 00:33:26,838
There's a finished product
right here,
745
00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:29,257
and so that gets
pulled around.
746
00:33:30,177 --> 00:33:31,342
Nice and tight.
747
00:33:31,928 --> 00:33:33,136
There it is.
748
00:33:38,351 --> 00:33:40,393
Now, we're running
into another issue
749
00:33:40,470 --> 00:33:41,561
with the motor mounts.
750
00:33:41,638 --> 00:33:43,605
We need it to come up
just a little bit.
751
00:33:44,691 --> 00:33:45,899
So that definitely is...
752
00:33:46,693 --> 00:33:47,817
...too much.
753
00:33:48,361 --> 00:33:49,986
Well, if we move two inches,
754
00:33:50,021 --> 00:33:51,145
this is gonna go up.
755
00:33:51,222 --> 00:33:54,074
The exhaust should clear
at that point.
756
00:33:54,076 --> 00:33:56,659
The worst case scenario,
we're just gonna
go up two inches.
757
00:33:59,039 --> 00:34:01,081
What we're thinking
about doing is cutting
the motor mount
758
00:34:01,157 --> 00:34:02,490
and getting
a different oil pan.
759
00:34:02,567 --> 00:34:04,334
If we pull that motor
two inches forward,
760
00:34:04,410 --> 00:34:05,734
I think it's gonna clear.
761
00:34:08,006 --> 00:34:10,090
Junior just hauled ass
to our part store
762
00:34:10,092 --> 00:34:11,332
to get the new oil pan,
763
00:34:11,334 --> 00:34:12,650
so we're gonna
get this swapped out
764
00:34:12,652 --> 00:34:14,969
and try to get this
wrapped up today.
765
00:34:14,971 --> 00:34:18,014
You know, things like this
will kinda knock you
in the chest, and...
766
00:34:18,642 --> 00:34:20,100
If we get this resolved today,
767
00:34:20,102 --> 00:34:21,226
everybody's gonna feel
a lot better.
768
00:34:21,228 --> 00:34:22,602
[whistles]
769
00:34:22,679 --> 00:34:24,854
Man, that's gonna give it
that final little...
770
00:34:25,649 --> 00:34:27,899
...something something,
you know?
771
00:34:27,901 --> 00:34:29,484
Can you scoot it over
just a little bit?
772
00:34:33,615 --> 00:34:34,656
Go back a little bit.
773
00:34:35,867 --> 00:34:37,075
All right, right there.
774
00:34:38,161 --> 00:34:39,577
Hold up. Slow it down.
775
00:34:40,247 --> 00:34:41,246
Keep going.
776
00:34:41,790 --> 00:34:42,956
It's, like, so close.
777
00:34:42,958 --> 00:34:44,707
Let it down just a smidge.
778
00:34:44,784 --> 00:34:46,543
You see,
it's close right there.
779
00:34:47,337 --> 00:34:48,837
-Geez...
-[Junior mumbles]
780
00:34:49,631 --> 00:34:50,880
All right.
781
00:34:50,882 --> 00:34:52,489
One mission accomplished.
782
00:34:52,491 --> 00:34:54,467
Now let's see if we can get
the other one accomplished.
783
00:34:56,513 --> 00:34:58,763
But we definitely got
the clearance now
for the steering.
784
00:35:07,607 --> 00:35:08,648
Look at her.
785
00:35:09,151 --> 00:35:11,401
And I think with that,
it'll do it.
786
00:35:11,477 --> 00:35:12,735
Looks like we're
gonna be good, man.
787
00:35:12,737 --> 00:35:13,969
Looks like, you know,
788
00:35:13,971 --> 00:35:16,156
we're gonna just tap
that in right there.
789
00:35:16,232 --> 00:35:17,699
That'll give the clearance
for the transmission.
790
00:35:17,775 --> 00:35:19,075
We'll be able to bolt that up.
791
00:35:23,665 --> 00:35:24,873
We're just getting it
primed up.
792
00:35:24,875 --> 00:35:27,333
We got 60 PSI right now
on oil pressure,
793
00:35:27,410 --> 00:35:29,002
so we're ready
to fire this thing up.
794
00:35:29,078 --> 00:35:31,296
I'm gonna call Joey
and have him come over
and unlock it,
795
00:35:31,339 --> 00:35:32,529
and then we'll be able
to start it.
796
00:35:32,531 --> 00:35:33,548
[Joey] Basically,
turned off security.
797
00:35:33,550 --> 00:35:35,717
Had to, uh, change
spark and airflow
798
00:35:35,793 --> 00:35:36,626
to make sure
this thing will idle
799
00:35:36,628 --> 00:35:37,902
with the new camshaft in it.
800
00:35:37,904 --> 00:35:40,013
Joey came and he put
the initial tune on it
801
00:35:40,015 --> 00:35:41,973
so we could get the motor
cranked up.
802
00:35:42,309 --> 00:35:43,850
[revving]
803
00:35:45,312 --> 00:35:46,769
Hell, yeah!
804
00:35:47,522 --> 00:35:49,272
The good thing is it starts.
805
00:35:49,274 --> 00:35:50,398
It's coming a long way,
806
00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:52,275
but it still has
a long ways to go.
807
00:36:01,161 --> 00:36:02,744
[Shorty] Got another car
out of the shop.
808
00:36:02,746 --> 00:36:05,121
That car was in desperate ne
of some help.
809
00:36:05,123 --> 00:36:08,124
So we went and gave it
to Raymond.
810
00:36:08,126 --> 00:36:10,960
Shorty, Joel, what's up, man?
Looking good, man.
811
00:36:10,962 --> 00:36:12,629
[Joel] How's it nice
to see your car back?
812
00:36:12,714 --> 00:36:14,214
It's nice, man. I've been
waiting for it, man.
813
00:36:14,216 --> 00:36:15,465
-The sun's perfect
to drive it.
-[Shorty chuckles]
814
00:36:15,467 --> 00:36:17,533
I wanna drive right now.
815
00:36:17,535 --> 00:36:19,552
[Shorty] Joel can show you
exactly, everything
he did for you.
816
00:36:19,554 --> 00:36:21,221
[Joel] Jump in there.
817
00:36:21,223 --> 00:36:23,473
-Aw, man.
-Isn't it great?
818
00:36:23,475 --> 00:36:25,850
I can already see
the kick panels, man.
819
00:36:25,852 --> 00:36:28,436
He's missing the biggest
point he came in for!
820
00:36:28,438 --> 00:36:30,521
-He's not saying anything...
-[Raymond] Yeah,
but you could buy this.
821
00:36:30,565 --> 00:36:32,398
But this right here,
this is custom, man.
822
00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:34,049
-You can't buy that.
-This is handmade, man.
You know what I mean?
823
00:36:34,127 --> 00:36:36,653
-[Joel] Custom-built.
-Custom-built, man.
That's nice.
824
00:36:37,739 --> 00:36:39,280
Raymond wants
to hear the music.
825
00:36:39,357 --> 00:36:41,991
[rock music playing]
826
00:36:42,619 --> 00:36:44,202
-Sounds good, bro.
-Loud enough for you?
827
00:36:44,204 --> 00:36:45,536
It's loud enough.
I think I can hear it, man.
828
00:36:45,538 --> 00:36:47,247
Man, I was very impressed.
829
00:36:47,249 --> 00:36:49,666
I mean, the time
Joel took on it,
it made it look really nice,
830
00:36:49,668 --> 00:36:51,668
and I was just
very, very satisfied
831
00:36:51,670 --> 00:36:53,419
with the job that they did.
832
00:36:53,421 --> 00:36:54,337
I'm gonna have
to take care of them now,
833
00:36:54,339 --> 00:36:55,964
make them look good.
834
00:36:55,966 --> 00:36:57,757
-What's up, cuz?
-Getting it done, man.
835
00:36:57,759 --> 00:36:59,300
-Ready?
-Hell yeah, I'm ready.
836
00:36:59,377 --> 00:37:00,576
What's going on, man?
837
00:37:00,578 --> 00:37:01,970
-You all right?
-Good to see you, brother.
838
00:37:04,891 --> 00:37:08,101
The passion
for having old cars,
839
00:37:08,177 --> 00:37:09,811
classic cars
and stuff like that,
840
00:37:09,813 --> 00:37:12,063
I guess we share
the same passion.
841
00:37:12,607 --> 00:37:14,857
Joel and Junior
did a great job.
842
00:37:14,859 --> 00:37:16,776
I couldn't be happier
with what they did,
843
00:37:16,778 --> 00:37:18,853
and in the process,
we got cleaned up, Joel.
844
00:37:22,409 --> 00:37:24,033
[Shorty] We have our final d
on this Oldsmobile
Cutlass Supreme.
845
00:37:24,035 --> 00:37:26,411
It's all hands on deck
right now, this car,
846
00:37:26,413 --> 00:37:27,453
'cause we don't have
much to go,
847
00:37:27,455 --> 00:37:29,163
so we gotta get it done.
848
00:37:42,095 --> 00:37:43,136
All right, good.
849
00:37:51,146 --> 00:37:52,270
[groans] Oh, man...
850
00:37:54,149 --> 00:37:55,231
There you go.
851
00:37:56,026 --> 00:37:57,650
Perfect.
852
00:38:03,867 --> 00:38:06,617
Yeah, we have to line up
about 30 different bolts
on here
853
00:38:06,619 --> 00:38:08,644
that are screwed
into the dash,
854
00:38:08,646 --> 00:38:10,246
and then we have
to come in from the back
and put nuts on them.
855
00:38:10,248 --> 00:38:12,040
So, it's, it's a pain
in the butt.
856
00:38:12,116 --> 00:38:14,000
But we got it lined up.
That's the hard part.
857
00:38:14,002 --> 00:38:16,169
It's looking good, man.
It's looking real good.
858
00:38:27,474 --> 00:38:28,931
Go ahead and go down.
859
00:38:30,268 --> 00:38:31,726
Right there.
860
00:38:39,194 --> 00:38:40,068
Damn, Shorty.
861
00:38:40,070 --> 00:38:41,268
Look at that, man.
862
00:38:41,270 --> 00:38:43,029
You got a little
quarter-inch gap
863
00:38:43,031 --> 00:38:44,572
all the way
from top to bottom.
864
00:38:45,658 --> 00:38:47,075
-The gaps are great, man.
-Yeah.
865
00:38:51,039 --> 00:38:52,038
We're good to go.
866
00:38:53,500 --> 00:38:55,116
Nice and tight.
867
00:39:03,968 --> 00:39:06,511
I'm really excited to show it
to Vardon, see what he thinks,
868
00:39:06,554 --> 00:39:08,346
and I think it's gonna be
awesome when he sees it.
869
00:39:15,897 --> 00:39:16,896
What's up, man?
870
00:39:16,898 --> 00:39:18,606
-What up? Yeah.
-Good to see you.
871
00:39:18,608 --> 00:39:20,274
-How are you doing?
-Good, how are you?
872
00:39:20,393 --> 00:39:20,808
Good to see you, man.
873
00:39:20,810 --> 00:39:22,050
Y'all excited?
874
00:39:22,052 --> 00:39:23,461
-Oh, man, so excited.
-[Vardon sighs] Yeah.
875
00:39:23,463 --> 00:39:25,279
I'm like, at a loss for words,
to be honest with you,
876
00:39:25,281 --> 00:39:26,948
'cause I didn't even know
it'd get to this point.
877
00:39:26,950 --> 00:39:28,950
You know, we know
we got him 100%.
878
00:39:28,952 --> 00:39:30,201
-Oh, 100%.
-Sold it.
879
00:39:30,203 --> 00:39:31,652
But you, on the other hand,
880
00:39:31,654 --> 00:39:34,080
I think it's gonna be
a big transformation for you,
881
00:39:34,082 --> 00:39:36,749
from what you had done
to what it is now.
882
00:39:36,751 --> 00:39:38,418
I think you might even
pass out.
883
00:39:38,494 --> 00:39:39,836
[Pete] You dropped off
the car.
884
00:39:39,838 --> 00:39:41,671
You were like, "Hey,
y'all know what to do."
885
00:39:41,673 --> 00:39:44,549
The crew has busted their rear
to get this car done,
886
00:39:44,592 --> 00:39:45,967
literally down
to the last second.
887
00:39:45,969 --> 00:39:47,760
It's just
the anticipation of it,
888
00:39:47,762 --> 00:39:50,179
'cause I already know
it's gonna be off the chain.
889
00:39:50,181 --> 00:39:51,472
-Y'all ready to check it out?
-Let's do it.
890
00:39:51,549 --> 00:39:53,808
-Y'all excited?
-Yeah, I gotta get my...
891
00:39:53,885 --> 00:39:55,268
-[Pete] Okay, cool.
-Just gotta get
my legs moving.
892
00:39:55,270 --> 00:39:56,686
[Neel shouts]
893
00:39:56,762 --> 00:39:57,753
Yes, let's do this.
Let's do this.
894
00:39:57,755 --> 00:39:59,689
All right, Junior.
Open the door!
895
00:39:59,765 --> 00:40:02,817
-[engine revving]
-Ooh! Already hear it.
896
00:40:06,865 --> 00:40:08,072
[Vardon] For real?
897
00:40:08,992 --> 00:40:11,826
-Oh...
-God, with the pinstripe!
898
00:40:12,245 --> 00:40:14,245
[Neel screaming]
899
00:40:16,958 --> 00:40:18,166
[Vardon laughs]
900
00:40:18,242 --> 00:40:19,834
Shorty pulls out,
and it's like...
901
00:40:19,836 --> 00:40:22,378
I was expecting
some excitement, but damn.
902
00:40:22,380 --> 00:40:24,755
I mean, these guys
were excited.
903
00:40:31,598 --> 00:40:34,182
And the, and the paint job!
904
00:40:34,184 --> 00:40:35,808
Ooh, and the Supreme!
905
00:40:35,810 --> 00:40:39,437
-Man...
-Look at you, man!
Why did I sell this car?
906
00:40:39,439 --> 00:40:41,355
-[chuckles] Nicely done,
my friend.
-You all right, man?
907
00:40:41,357 --> 00:40:43,316
Nicely done.
908
00:40:43,392 --> 00:40:44,633
-Oh, my God, Shorty!
-[Neel] I'm having some
seller's remorse right now.
909
00:40:44,711 --> 00:40:46,819
-What's up, brother? [laughs]
-Oh, my God!
910
00:40:50,742 --> 00:40:52,116
[Shorty] I didn't even know
how to act,
911
00:40:52,118 --> 00:40:54,076
by the way, uh,
they reacted to the car.
912
00:40:54,078 --> 00:40:55,310
What do you think, man?
913
00:40:55,312 --> 00:40:58,247
Man, I love it.
It's clean. It's classic.
914
00:40:58,249 --> 00:40:59,648
It brings it out.
915
00:41:01,085 --> 00:41:03,002
Let me show you what, uh,
what we did under here.
916
00:41:03,463 --> 00:41:04,895
Oh...
917
00:41:04,897 --> 00:41:06,214
[Joel] So, what you guys
are looking at
918
00:41:06,216 --> 00:41:08,549
is a 5.3 LS engine,
919
00:41:08,626 --> 00:41:10,301
tricked out just a little bi
920
00:41:10,303 --> 00:41:13,221
Got a Stage 1 cam
painted by Shorty.
921
00:41:13,223 --> 00:41:15,640
-[Vardon] Wow...
-They're nice and clean.
What do you think?
922
00:41:15,642 --> 00:41:17,308
I'm afraid to even drive it.
923
00:41:17,310 --> 00:41:20,061
-This is ridiculous.
Y'all are cold!
-[chuckles]
924
00:41:20,063 --> 00:41:21,771
Oh, my goodness!
925
00:41:21,773 --> 00:41:24,607
It's nice to build a car
to represent its owner,
926
00:41:24,609 --> 00:41:26,734
and this car screams Vardon.
927
00:41:26,736 --> 00:41:28,986
You got bling,
the car got bling, man.
928
00:41:28,988 --> 00:41:31,531
That's blinging. This is
way blingier than me.
929
00:41:31,533 --> 00:41:33,491
Let me show you the interior.
930
00:41:33,493 --> 00:41:36,827
So, you got a two-tone,
weathered-looking leather.
931
00:41:36,829 --> 00:41:39,455
Same design flow
on the, uh, door panels.
932
00:41:40,458 --> 00:41:43,459
There's new carpet,
wrapped the dash for you.
933
00:41:43,461 --> 00:41:44,860
[Vardon] Oh, man.
934
00:41:44,862 --> 00:41:46,212
[Shorty] Um, made it look
just super clean.
935
00:41:46,289 --> 00:41:47,463
Let's walk
around the other side
936
00:41:47,465 --> 00:41:49,006
and, uh, you can sit in it.
937
00:41:51,052 --> 00:41:53,636
Man, this is clean.
938
00:41:55,682 --> 00:41:56,806
It's amazing.
939
00:41:56,808 --> 00:41:58,975
The thing I like most about it
940
00:41:59,051 --> 00:42:00,618
is I like the paint job.
941
00:42:00,620 --> 00:42:03,145
I like the way that
the stripes accent the car.
942
00:42:03,147 --> 00:42:05,314
They're not racing stripes,
so to speak.
943
00:42:05,316 --> 00:42:07,316
But they just give it
a good accent,
944
00:42:07,393 --> 00:42:09,318
and to me, they make
the front end.
945
00:42:09,395 --> 00:42:10,695
But no, this is like, bananas!
946
00:42:10,697 --> 00:42:12,405
[chuckles] Dream Shop did it.
947
00:42:12,407 --> 00:42:14,240
-[Vardon] The Dream Shop
and Shorty.
-The Dream Shop did it.
948
00:42:14,317 --> 00:42:18,578
Shorty and his team
did an amazing job.
949
00:42:18,580 --> 00:42:20,580
-You guys ready
to go for a ride?
-Yeah.
950
00:42:21,624 --> 00:42:23,082
[car starts]
951
00:42:23,876 --> 00:42:26,002
-[engine revs]
-Dang.
952
00:42:26,004 --> 00:42:29,046
-[Neel screaming]
-[all chuckle]
953
00:42:29,048 --> 00:42:32,258
That thing has some,
uh, some kick to it.
954
00:42:33,052 --> 00:42:34,510
It's a little scary at first
955
00:42:34,512 --> 00:42:37,096
because it has a lot
more power than I expected.
956
00:42:37,098 --> 00:42:39,348
-Damn, Shorty. Whoo!
-[Shorty chuckles]
957
00:42:39,425 --> 00:42:41,058
I feel like a little kid.
958
00:42:41,060 --> 00:42:43,269
This is so awesome, Shorty.
959
00:42:43,346 --> 00:42:45,062
[Shorty] Well, I'm glad
you guys like it, man.
960
00:42:45,064 --> 00:42:45,938
It doesn't hit you
over the head...
961
00:42:45,940 --> 00:42:47,348
-Yeah.
-Yeah.
962
00:42:47,424 --> 00:42:49,299
-...but it's still catchy,
you know?
-Yeah, yeah.
963
00:42:49,301 --> 00:42:51,569
[Neel] They're gonna see you
in one of the hottest
Cutlasses around.
964
00:42:52,530 --> 00:42:54,739
They knocked this
out the park. Beautiful.
965
00:42:54,741 --> 00:42:56,073
Beautiful all the way.
966
00:42:56,075 --> 00:42:57,074
Cutlass is back!
967
00:42:57,076 --> 00:42:59,076
[all laugh]
968
00:43:00,288 --> 00:43:02,121
We're checking out
his door panel.
969
00:43:02,123 --> 00:43:04,373
He's got that Western look
on there.
970
00:43:04,375 --> 00:43:06,667
We're gonna try to put
something together
on these boots.
971
00:43:06,744 --> 00:43:09,920
[all laughing]
972
00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:15,343
-There you go.
-How about like this?
973
00:43:15,419 --> 00:43:16,618
[sighs]
974
00:43:16,620 --> 00:43:18,929
Junior, can you give me
some toilet paper?
975
00:43:18,931 --> 00:43:21,432
Hey, Junior,
I need some toilet paper!
976
00:43:21,434 --> 00:43:23,559
-There ain't none, look.
-[chuckling]
977
00:43:23,636 --> 00:43:25,436
Go bring me some.
978
00:43:25,521 --> 00:43:26,729
-[cow mooing effect]
-[men laughing]
