1
00:00:01,100 --> 00:00:02,066
Oh, hell.
2
00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:04,533
[Shorty] Torino GT.
3
00:00:09,266 --> 00:00:10,266
[man 1] There it is.
4
00:00:10,266 --> 00:00:11,867
[Shorty] Iconic 351 motor.
5
00:00:11,867 --> 00:00:14,500
Looks really good
until you start looking
at it really close.
6
00:00:14,500 --> 00:00:16,166
We're gonna have to
strip it all down.
7
00:00:17,667 --> 00:00:19,033
It's aggressive...
8
00:00:20,266 --> 00:00:22,233
Go straight down. We're in.
9
00:00:23,100 --> 00:00:25,200
[engine revs]
10
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:26,767
[man 2] Whoa! See that?
11
00:00:26,767 --> 00:00:29,066
Wow. Gorgeous car.
12
00:00:33,166 --> 00:00:35,900
[Shorty] My name is Javier but
most people call me Shorty.
13
00:00:35,900 --> 00:00:37,000
I was born in Mexico...
14
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:38,734
[engine revs]
15
00:00:38,734 --> 00:00:42,800
...and when I was 4 years old
my parents moved to Texas in
search of the American dream.
16
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,500
Now, I'm living that dream
with my own custom shop
17
00:00:45,500 --> 00:00:47,734
and the team that builds
the coolest cars on the road.
18
00:00:50,867 --> 00:00:52,867
-[man 3] Oh, damn.
-[man 4] My God!
19
00:00:52,867 --> 00:00:55,500
[Shorty] We make
dreams come true.
20
00:00:55,500 --> 00:00:57,066
[all cheering]
21
00:01:02,567 --> 00:01:05,967
So, check this out.
Today we're gonna work
on a Ford, man.
22
00:01:05,967 --> 00:01:08,100
-We just don't do
very many Fords.
-No.
23
00:01:08,100 --> 00:01:09,567
So, I'm excited about that.
24
00:01:09,567 --> 00:01:11,934
I believe it's a '71 Torino.
25
00:01:17,500 --> 00:01:19,600
-Morning.
-[Shorty] Good morning.
26
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,500
Good to see you again.
How are you doing?
27
00:01:22,500 --> 00:01:24,667
This is my... my buddy Joel.
28
00:01:24,667 --> 00:01:27,100
-[Joel] How's it going?
-Mr. Simpson and Richard,
right?
29
00:01:27,100 --> 00:01:29,700
-[Shorty] You got a nice place
here, Mr. Simpson.
-[Danny] Thank you.
30
00:01:29,700 --> 00:01:33,266
-[Shorty] I love it, man.
Look at that thing.
-[Danny] 1928.
31
00:01:33,266 --> 00:01:34,867
[Shorty] So, they...
they run, huh?
32
00:01:34,867 --> 00:01:37,266
They all run.
Richard keeps them running.
33
00:01:37,266 --> 00:01:40,266
He's got a lot of
really nice cars in there.
34
00:01:40,266 --> 00:01:43,667
Aside from having a lot
of Mustangs, Shelbys
and Cobras
35
00:01:43,667 --> 00:01:46,266
he also has a Model T and some
Model As.
36
00:01:46,266 --> 00:01:48,467
-What year is this one?
-'30.
37
00:01:48,467 --> 00:01:50,867
-[Shorty] It's a '30?
-[Danny] Got a seat for
38
00:01:50,867 --> 00:01:53,000
-[indistinct]
-[Shorty] A rumble seat?
39
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:54,867
What is this one here,
Mr. Simpson?
40
00:01:54,867 --> 00:01:58,867
The 1922 Ford
Model T Speedster.
41
00:01:59,166 --> 00:02:01,166
101 years old.
42
00:02:01,166 --> 00:02:03,667
Whatever they built these
cars with they made sure
that it was gonna last.
43
00:02:03,667 --> 00:02:05,500
Now, if you look at
the suspensions and
stuff like that
44
00:02:05,500 --> 00:02:07,700
it's all made out of steel,
it's all thick.
45
00:02:07,700 --> 00:02:09,667
And it's wood.
It's got wood in it, too.
46
00:02:09,667 --> 00:02:11,700
[Shorty] And it's...
most of the wood was
badass wood, Joel...
47
00:02:11,700 --> 00:02:13,367
-[Joel] Yeah. Crazy.
-...like ash, like oak.
48
00:02:13,367 --> 00:02:16,367
What's amazing is that
they're here still today...
49
00:02:16,367 --> 00:02:18,600
-Today.
-...almost a 100 years old.
50
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,000
Your collection is amazing,
Mr. Simpson.
51
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,333
-It's got a lot of history.
-Got old... Got old and new.
52
00:02:29,166 --> 00:02:31,967
Mr. Simpson, uh,
where is the Torino?
53
00:02:31,967 --> 00:02:33,333
[Danny] It's right
around the corner.
54
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,533
-Here it is.
-[Shorty] There it is.
55
00:02:45,166 --> 00:02:48,100
-[Joel] Look at that.
351, huh?
-[Danny] 351.
56
00:02:48,100 --> 00:02:50,266
When I graduated high school
57
00:02:50,266 --> 00:02:53,467
I went to Denton
and bought one that looked
just like this.
58
00:02:53,467 --> 00:02:55,300
I've been searching for one,
I found one
59
00:02:55,300 --> 00:02:57,567
that's almost exactly
the way that mine was.
60
00:02:57,567 --> 00:02:59,266
Were you heavy-footed?
61
00:02:59,266 --> 00:03:01,100
I mean, 'cause that's a lot
of power for back in the day.
62
00:03:01,100 --> 00:03:03,367
Think I got 11 tickets
in one year with it.
63
00:03:03,367 --> 00:03:06,266
-Eleven tickets?
-[Danny] 11 tickets.
64
00:03:06,266 --> 00:03:08,367
[Shorty] By the looks of it
it looks like it runs.
65
00:03:08,367 --> 00:03:10,333
-[Richard] It will start.
-It will start?
66
00:03:11,367 --> 00:03:14,467
So, Mr. Simpson, what are you
looking for as far as, like,
67
00:03:14,467 --> 00:03:16,967
how deep, you know, are we
gonna get in this build?
68
00:03:16,967 --> 00:03:21,367
I wanna go ahead and
finish the engine out 'cause
it needs fuel injection.
69
00:03:21,367 --> 00:03:24,500
Needs a windshield,
it's got scratches on
the windshield.
70
00:03:24,500 --> 00:03:27,266
Do you wanna keep the graphics
that are on the side or no?
71
00:03:27,266 --> 00:03:29,000
[Danny] I do wanna keep
the graphics on the side.
72
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,367
Okay. And then you obviously
wanna go back red?
73
00:03:31,367 --> 00:03:33,567
Red. Red, red, red.
74
00:03:33,567 --> 00:03:36,066
Let's back it out and
get it in the trailer for you.
75
00:03:38,900 --> 00:03:40,400
This car is killer looking.
76
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,600
Nice race-y look. Muscle-y.
77
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:43,867
-Muscle-y.
-Muscle-y car, yeah.
78
00:03:43,867 --> 00:03:46,400
You know, nice interior. 351.
79
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,066
I mean, iconic motor.
80
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,467
[Richard] You guys wanna go
for a ride in the old car?
81
00:03:54,467 --> 00:03:56,667
-[Shorty] One in
a lifetime chance.
-Yeah.
82
00:03:56,667 --> 00:03:58,000
I hope I don't fall out.
83
00:03:58,000 --> 00:03:59,433
Oh, hell.
84
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:07,033
Cruise control and
you ain't gotta mess with
the throttle down there.
85
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:09,166
Cruise control?
86
00:04:15,567 --> 00:04:17,266
[Danny] Y'all look like
Bonnie and Clyde.
87
00:04:17,266 --> 00:04:19,100
[Shorty] What a ride, man.
88
00:04:19,100 --> 00:04:24,567
We got to drive a 1930 Model A
and a 1922 Model T Speedster.
89
00:04:24,567 --> 00:04:27,166
Put it into manual.
So, here, to go forward.
90
00:04:27,166 --> 00:04:30,100
And then, to go backwards.
And brake.
91
00:04:30,100 --> 00:04:31,667
-That is unique.
-[Richard] Throttle.
92
00:04:31,667 --> 00:04:34,600
And I'll tell you what,
they sure didn't drive
like they were 100 years old.
93
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,433
They drove pretty darn good.
94
00:04:46,667 --> 00:04:48,634
[cows mooing]
95
00:04:51,166 --> 00:04:53,000
[whistles]
96
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,066
[Carl] Oh, shoot,
what do we got here now?
97
00:04:56,066 --> 00:04:57,767
-What we got, Short dog?
-[man 5] What we got?
What we got?
98
00:04:57,767 --> 00:04:59,033
We got a surprise.
99
00:05:00,100 --> 00:05:01,734
[man 6] Oh, man, look at that.
100
00:05:02,367 --> 00:05:03,767
Torino, huh?
101
00:05:03,767 --> 00:05:05,467
[Shorty] Not just a Torino.
102
00:05:05,467 --> 00:05:08,266
-A GT, huh? '71.
-[Shorty] '71.
103
00:05:08,266 --> 00:05:11,100
Technically, this is
a 1971 Torino GT.
104
00:05:11,100 --> 00:05:14,367
They didn't become
a Gran Torino until 1972.
105
00:05:14,367 --> 00:05:17,367
But I'll tell you what,
this one here is pretty
grand to us.
106
00:05:17,367 --> 00:05:18,767
I love that car, man.
107
00:05:18,767 --> 00:05:20,300
-I love the way it looks.
-Hey, man, I think we can
just wash it and
108
00:05:20,300 --> 00:05:22,066
give it back to him and say,
"Look what we did."
109
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,867
I can't stress how much
relief I got when I seen that.
110
00:05:27,867 --> 00:05:31,367
I said, "Finally, I get a car
that doesn't have that much
body work."
111
00:05:31,367 --> 00:05:33,000
[Shorty] Basically,
we just have to go through it,
112
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,500
make sure everything
is functional. Obviously,
paint it.
113
00:05:35,500 --> 00:05:37,467
Hey, PG, uh,
check it out, man.
114
00:05:37,467 --> 00:05:39,900
So, we're making a...
a nice little console...
115
00:05:39,900 --> 00:05:41,166
-Okay.
-...for the car.
116
00:05:41,166 --> 00:05:44,166
I think this Torino is...
we're gonna have some
fun with it.
117
00:05:44,166 --> 00:05:46,667
It's... it's a little
different and it's a Ford.
118
00:05:49,467 --> 00:05:53,600
We have another badass car.
It's a '71 Torino GT.
119
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:57,900
It's got the race-y body.
It's got the racing graphics
on the sides.
120
00:05:57,900 --> 00:06:01,300
It's a GT, so, it's the car
that was made in those days,
121
00:06:01,300 --> 00:06:03,634
uh, to kinda compete
with a Chevelle.
122
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,166
-I mean, this is as Ford
as you can get, right?
-Pretty Ford.
123
00:06:11,166 --> 00:06:13,166
I mean, this is a pretty cool
muscle car.
124
00:06:13,166 --> 00:06:15,400
You know, 351 Cleveland in it.
125
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:19,467
Carl and Joel are gonna do
a fuel injected setup on it.
126
00:06:19,467 --> 00:06:21,266
[Joel] I mean,
it runs pretty damn good,
127
00:06:21,266 --> 00:06:25,600
so, the running part's the...
the low end of this build
right here.
128
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:29,266
Now, the body...
Looks can be deceiving, boys.
129
00:06:29,266 --> 00:06:32,000
We did notice that it has
a little bit of rust,
130
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,100
you know, around the bottom
of the car.
131
00:06:34,100 --> 00:06:36,567
What I really wanna do
is wash it so I can make
a template
132
00:06:36,567 --> 00:06:38,567
out of the graphic
that's on there now.
133
00:06:38,567 --> 00:06:41,100
That way I don't have
to struggle later on and
look at pictures.
134
00:06:41,100 --> 00:06:43,100
We get to use that brand-new
pressure washer on it, Shorty.
135
00:06:43,100 --> 00:06:46,100
Yeah, we just bought
a brand-new pressure washer.
[exclaims]
136
00:06:46,100 --> 00:06:48,834
[machine whirring]
137
00:07:05,700 --> 00:07:09,867
The plan today is, uh,
to start tearing down
into this Torino.
138
00:07:09,867 --> 00:07:11,800
We're gonna get
brother Carl in here.
139
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:13,367
Get all the stuff from
out of the engine compartment
140
00:07:13,367 --> 00:07:15,667
that way we can
get started on the car.
141
00:07:15,667 --> 00:07:19,367
I think we absolutely need to
pull the engine out,
replace everything.
142
00:07:19,367 --> 00:07:20,767
-After that...
-[Carl] Reseal it.
143
00:07:20,767 --> 00:07:22,900
...and then we'll paint it up,
make it look good.
144
00:07:22,900 --> 00:07:25,867
I think once, you know,
we paint the engine
compartment black,
145
00:07:25,867 --> 00:07:29,166
-put the motor back in,
I think it'll look better.
-Absolutely.
146
00:07:29,166 --> 00:07:30,367
-[Joel] Let's do it.
-[Carl] We got it.
147
00:07:35,166 --> 00:07:36,500
[Carl] What about
the windshield washer hose?
148
00:07:36,500 --> 00:07:37,867
-[Joel] It's good.
-[Carl] All right.
149
00:07:39,100 --> 00:07:40,667
We're going on this dolly
right here.
150
00:07:43,166 --> 00:07:46,266
-Pete, I mean,
you're just in time, bro.
-[Shorty] Just the guy, man.
151
00:07:46,266 --> 00:07:47,934
I was gonna ask you,
what's up with the
chicken hat?
152
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:50,500
Oh, chicken hat?
153
00:07:50,500 --> 00:07:54,166
He was supposed to get me
a Ford or a Chevy or
154
00:07:54,166 --> 00:07:56,467
I don't know,
he just got me this, so...
155
00:07:56,467 --> 00:07:57,800
I mean, I ask him
about a chicken hat
156
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,600
and he starts talking about
a Ford and a Chevy.
157
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,066
I'm... I gotta go downstairs.
158
00:08:03,066 --> 00:08:05,567
-[Shorty] Downstairs?
-[Pete] Yeah, it's more
cooler down there,
159
00:08:05,567 --> 00:08:07,100
so, I'm gonna go over there.
160
00:08:07,100 --> 00:08:08,200
[Shorty] That thing
is too hot.
161
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,433
[laughs]
162
00:08:11,967 --> 00:08:13,734
He went to the basement.
[chuckles]
163
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,166
You know, we joke about,
you know, we're all
Chevy guys, you know
164
00:08:23,166 --> 00:08:25,400
we're not really Ford guys
or whatever.
165
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:27,500
Know a lot more about
Chevrolet than I do this Ford.
166
00:08:27,500 --> 00:08:29,900
Fords have different
bolt patterns on the back
of the block
167
00:08:29,900 --> 00:08:32,567
where they bolt to the
transmission, they've got...
their motor mounts are dif...
168
00:08:32,567 --> 00:08:34,767
You know, there's,
there's stuff that's different
but it's...
169
00:08:34,767 --> 00:08:36,767
All the same stuff applies.
170
00:08:36,767 --> 00:08:39,700
It'll be fun to get it done
and see how good it runs
when it's all injected.
171
00:08:39,700 --> 00:08:41,166
Go up a little bit, Hill.
172
00:08:41,166 --> 00:08:42,934
-[Terry] Go up?
-Just a little bit.
173
00:08:46,567 --> 00:08:47,767
[exclaiming]
174
00:08:49,767 --> 00:08:51,233
-[Carl] There it is.
-There it is, now.
175
00:08:51,767 --> 00:08:53,367
Bingo.
176
00:08:53,367 --> 00:08:56,166
Come on up some more.
Keep coming up.
177
00:08:58,000 --> 00:08:59,533
All right, T-money,
it's all yours.
178
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,667
I think the next step
should be, let's go ahead
and debadge it.
179
00:09:08,667 --> 00:09:11,567
Once you take all the trim
and chrome off of it,
180
00:09:11,567 --> 00:09:12,867
and then once
you get done doing that
181
00:09:12,867 --> 00:09:15,400
-we'll go to the next step.
-[Joe] All right.
182
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,867
So, what I'm gonna do now
is just mark everything so
that when we remove
183
00:09:18,867 --> 00:09:20,934
I'll be able to put it
right back to the way
they were.
184
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,166
[drill whirring]
185
00:09:36,867 --> 00:09:38,166
Got them bad knees.
186
00:09:40,166 --> 00:09:41,934
-Look at that.
-Yeah.
187
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:45,767
-[Shorty] Come on, vatos.
- [Pedro] Right here.
188
00:09:45,767 --> 00:09:48,767
[Shorty] So, on this one here,
the first thing
that we gotta have
189
00:09:48,767 --> 00:09:50,700
-is we gotta
have it stripped down.
-[Pedro] Uh-huh.
190
00:09:50,700 --> 00:09:53,934
-You know, so we can go ahead
and do what we gotta do, so...
-Okay.
191
00:09:56,867 --> 00:09:59,467
Mr. Simpson wants us to
make a console,
192
00:09:59,467 --> 00:10:02,667
so, we gotta
rip out the carpet and
get the front seats out.
193
00:10:02,667 --> 00:10:04,634
We got some power tools
right here.
194
00:10:08,867 --> 00:10:12,500
So, I got some new help
in Ralph over here.
195
00:10:12,500 --> 00:10:16,000
Hopefully, we could change
the dress code a little bit
196
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,900
'cause that cowboy stuff,
he'll have to be
at the stockyard
197
00:10:18,900 --> 00:10:22,667
riding a bull over there
or something, the rodeo, so...
198
00:10:22,667 --> 00:10:24,433
That's where I'm headed
after this.
199
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,500
He's going to the rodeo?
So, is he riding a bull?
200
00:10:29,500 --> 00:10:31,266
-No.
-A mechanical bull.
201
00:10:31,266 --> 00:10:34,100
They've probably got a little
smaller section over there
202
00:10:34,100 --> 00:10:35,300
where we could put you
on a bull.
203
00:10:35,300 --> 00:10:37,600
-They got a miniature
bull section?
-Yeah, yeah.
204
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,700
You'd be surprised.
Man, I can ride
one of them big horses.
205
00:10:40,700 --> 00:10:42,667
-Yeah, I'll show you.
I'll show you.
-[Pedro] All right.
206
00:10:42,667 --> 00:10:45,133
-That's a bet right there.
-[Shorty] I can ride.
I can ride, PG.
207
00:10:46,967 --> 00:10:48,133
-[Pedro] You ready?
-[Ralph] Yeah.
208
00:11:13,767 --> 00:11:15,767
How you doing over here,
brother Carl?
209
00:11:15,767 --> 00:11:17,867
I was gonna get the battery
and of course it's, uh,
210
00:11:17,867 --> 00:11:20,266
starter solenoid,
the canisters and,
211
00:11:20,266 --> 00:11:22,166
I guess that hose
is the stuff off the firewall.
212
00:11:22,166 --> 00:11:25,100
For sure. Stuff that
just gets in the way
213
00:11:25,100 --> 00:11:28,000
of us, you know, uh, painting
the engine compartment.
214
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,300
-Just all the loose stuff?
-[Shorty] Yeah, just all
the loose stuff.
215
00:11:30,300 --> 00:11:31,900
-Okay.
-[Shorty] That way we could
216
00:11:31,900 --> 00:11:35,066
-clean it up and paint it
in here really good.
-Right on.
217
00:11:35,066 --> 00:11:38,367
Ford, man, they liked doing
their cars without frames.
What was the purpose?
218
00:11:38,367 --> 00:11:40,100
I don't know.
Maybe saving some weight.
219
00:11:40,100 --> 00:11:41,767
-[Shorty] Saving
some weight, right.
-Yeah.
220
00:11:41,767 --> 00:11:43,000
This is a sports car, man.
221
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,000
How many horses do you think
this car had from the factory?
222
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,166
This is a Cleveland.
A 351 Cleveland.
223
00:11:47,166 --> 00:11:49,567
And I think
the four barrel versions were,
like, 300 horse.
224
00:11:49,567 --> 00:11:51,000
-That much?
-[Carl] That much.
225
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,100
That's a whole lot
of horsepower than I thought.
226
00:11:53,100 --> 00:11:55,700
[Carl] This was definitely
their muscle car at the time.
227
00:11:55,700 --> 00:11:57,166
I bet it'd be fun to drive.
228
00:11:57,166 --> 00:11:58,400
Oh, yeah.
229
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:00,533
-I'll let you get back to it,
brother Carl.
-Sounds good.
230
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:09,500
We've got the, uh,
the 351 Cleveland out
of the '71 Torino.
231
00:12:09,500 --> 00:12:11,166
It seemed to run good
and everything.
232
00:12:11,166 --> 00:12:13,066
I don't know there was a
whole... whole lot we were
gonna do to it
233
00:12:13,066 --> 00:12:15,000
other than just take
all the accessories off of it,
234
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:16,700
put new gaskets and seals
and everything
235
00:12:16,700 --> 00:12:19,166
and then we'll kinda get
a better look at what the
inside of it looks like.
236
00:12:19,166 --> 00:12:22,667
Hopefully, it's not too bad
but you ne... you never know
until you tear it apart.
237
00:12:22,667 --> 00:12:24,867
The deal about
the fuel injection thing is
238
00:12:24,867 --> 00:12:27,467
is that they're just more
efficient than a carburetor.
239
00:12:27,467 --> 00:12:29,800
They kinda tune themselves,
you know, as need be
240
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,467
and the air changes some,
which the carburetor
doesn't do.
241
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:37,700
-[Shorty] What's going on,
man?
-Morning. How are ya?
242
00:12:37,700 --> 00:12:39,367
-What's up, Tommy?
-[Tommy] Doing okay, bud?
243
00:12:39,367 --> 00:12:40,700
-Nick, how you doing, buddy?
-[Nick] Good. How are you?
244
00:12:40,700 --> 00:12:41,967
[Shorty] You can see we kinda
have it
245
00:12:41,967 --> 00:12:44,100
-pretty much torn down
all the way.
-[Tommy] Okay.
246
00:12:44,100 --> 00:12:46,867
We need the back glass
and the front windshield
pulled out of it.
247
00:12:46,867 --> 00:12:50,100
-We don't do many Fords around
here. This is one of the few.
-[Tommy chuckles]
248
00:12:50,100 --> 00:12:52,266
But like I keep
telling everyone,
we don't plan it that way,
249
00:12:52,266 --> 00:12:54,100
-just... that's the way
it falls.
-[Tommy] Exactly.
250
00:12:54,100 --> 00:12:55,900
-Appreciate you guys coming.
-Well, I appreciate you.
251
00:12:55,900 --> 00:12:58,734
-You called the right man
for the job.
-Heck, yeah. I know I did.
252
00:13:00,300 --> 00:13:02,166
[Tommy] At the moment I'm
spraying some glass planer,
253
00:13:02,166 --> 00:13:04,467
it actually helps the blade
glide through.
254
00:13:04,467 --> 00:13:06,467
What's been used
in this particular case
255
00:13:06,467 --> 00:13:09,767
it looks like some butyl tape
that's going all the way
around the back glass here.
256
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:18,133
Here we go.
257
00:13:28,900 --> 00:13:30,533
-Bottom?
-[Nick] Coming up.
258
00:13:39,266 --> 00:13:42,900
[Shorty] Mr. Simpson wants to
keep this stripe but he wants
it painted
259
00:13:42,900 --> 00:13:44,667
instead of a decal.
260
00:13:44,667 --> 00:13:48,000
I'm gonna make me a template.
I'm gonna mark with a
stripe ghost.
261
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,967
And then, what I'll do is,
I'll mark how far it went
from the wheel.
262
00:13:51,967 --> 00:13:53,867
Right now, I'm spending
a little bit of time
263
00:13:53,867 --> 00:13:56,133
but in the long run
it's gonna save me
a lot of time.
264
00:14:02,767 --> 00:14:06,800
When I come back I'll put this
paper right here right on...
straight on the line
265
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:10,033
and... and...
and that tells me that this
is between here and here,
266
00:14:10,567 --> 00:14:11,934
and I'll be good to go.
267
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:27,100
We're working on the Torino.
268
00:14:27,100 --> 00:14:29,100
It's not gonna be
only best part, okay.
269
00:14:29,100 --> 00:14:30,667
But I think it's gonna be
the worst part.
270
00:14:30,667 --> 00:14:34,166
You get close and you notice
that someone
271
00:14:34,166 --> 00:14:36,266
put a patch panel back here.
272
00:14:36,266 --> 00:14:39,367
It looks to me like
they used some kind
of a spot welder.
273
00:14:39,367 --> 00:14:43,867
That spot welder
had to have been used
on the outside only because
274
00:14:43,867 --> 00:14:46,000
I mean, there's no way to
get the other part in there.
275
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:47,667
We're gonna grind
the rest of it.
276
00:14:47,667 --> 00:14:50,166
I'll be curious to find out
what's underneath this panel.
277
00:14:54,500 --> 00:14:56,066
It actually came off...
278
00:14:56,867 --> 00:14:58,333
like, from right here.
279
00:14:59,767 --> 00:15:00,900
From this area.
280
00:15:02,467 --> 00:15:06,066
And as you can see,
it's got moisture
underneath it.
281
00:15:06,867 --> 00:15:08,767
That's why the repair
went bad.
282
00:15:08,767 --> 00:15:11,767
Eventually, the moisture
got inside
283
00:15:11,767 --> 00:15:14,567
and got between this panel
and this panel.
284
00:15:14,567 --> 00:15:19,266
When you're gonna
patch something up,
it's better if you cut it
285
00:15:19,266 --> 00:15:23,967
and the try to butt
the new panel on to
the old panel.
286
00:15:23,967 --> 00:15:26,066
These panels are put on top
of the existing
287
00:15:26,066 --> 00:15:29,367
and that's why the moisture
got between the two.
288
00:15:29,367 --> 00:15:32,900
If you butt them together
there's no way that moisture
can get underneath.
289
00:15:32,900 --> 00:15:35,867
That's the advantage of...
of cutting it completely out
290
00:15:35,867 --> 00:15:38,166
and butting it in and
welding it right on the seam.
291
00:15:54,500 --> 00:15:57,867
You know, even though
it's such a small layer
it's very difficult
292
00:15:57,867 --> 00:16:03,367
to make a panel
that completely butt up
around it just right.
293
00:16:03,367 --> 00:16:05,600
If you made a panel that's
gonna fit on this quarter
294
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:07,467
and you're gonna butt it up
to this panel,
295
00:16:07,467 --> 00:16:09,800
this panel is normally
pretty flimsy.
296
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:13,266
So, what I like to do
is I like to cut
one-inch strips
297
00:16:13,266 --> 00:16:14,867
and I like
to put them underneath.
298
00:16:14,867 --> 00:16:18,767
What that does is allows me
to cut a panel,
299
00:16:18,767 --> 00:16:21,066
it may have a little gap
right in between it,
300
00:16:21,066 --> 00:16:24,000
but I like that because
that allows me to fill it in
with weld.
301
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:25,800
What was on there before,
uh, it was just...
302
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,567
it was just laid on top
of the existing panel.
303
00:16:28,567 --> 00:16:31,767
In this case, it's gonna be
actually butted up.
304
00:16:31,767 --> 00:16:33,033
It's gonna recess into it.
305
00:16:41,900 --> 00:16:44,166
Sometimes you have to be
really careful 'cause the
306
00:16:44,166 --> 00:16:46,500
surrounding metal
of where you cut
307
00:16:46,500 --> 00:16:50,166
is also very, uh, sensitive,
very thin.
308
00:16:50,166 --> 00:16:52,133
But it looks like it's gonna
work out really nice.
309
00:17:04,567 --> 00:17:06,266
-Primo!
-Just in time?
310
00:17:06,266 --> 00:17:08,000
You're right on time, Primo.
311
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,867
So, pull the fenders off,
one by one
312
00:17:10,867 --> 00:17:14,066
-and when you get done
pull the ends off of them.
-Okay.
313
00:17:14,066 --> 00:17:15,800
-Take it one step at a time.
-[Primo] Okay.
314
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,800
I'm gonna try to finish
before Terry shows up.
315
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:20,533
-Lea... Leave him
a bone, Primo.
-All right.
316
00:17:23,867 --> 00:17:26,667
-T-money's here.
-Here we go.
317
00:17:26,667 --> 00:17:29,700
-Primo!
-What's up? I got it.
318
00:17:29,700 --> 00:17:32,767
Let me get you a stand.
Put that on it so you can,
uh, strip it.
319
00:17:32,767 --> 00:17:34,467
Did you say he's gonna strip?
320
00:17:34,467 --> 00:17:36,800
-Well, he's gonna
strip the fender.
-Oh, got it. Okay.
321
00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:38,467
-Come on, man.
Let's get it, man.
-I'm ready.
322
00:17:38,467 --> 00:17:39,834
-Yeah. Heck yeah.
-Let's get it.
323
00:17:44,567 --> 00:17:46,800
While he takes everything out,
bags and tags it,
324
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:50,233
I'm just gonna
strip the fenders of
all the loose parts.
325
00:17:51,567 --> 00:17:54,233
Uh, so I guess that
makes me the stripper.
326
00:18:13,667 --> 00:18:15,767
Right now, I'm pulling
the decals off this Torino
327
00:18:15,767 --> 00:18:17,066
just because we need 'em gone.
328
00:18:17,066 --> 00:18:18,934
It's definitely
a sticky situation.
329
00:18:30,767 --> 00:18:32,166
Pulled off the decal
this morning.
330
00:18:32,166 --> 00:18:35,266
When the paint job
starts coming off
with the decal,
331
00:18:35,266 --> 00:18:37,967
you know you did
the right thing by
stripping it down.
332
00:18:37,967 --> 00:18:39,166
Not many panels did that.
333
00:18:39,166 --> 00:18:42,000
The one door,
all the paint started
coming off with it,
334
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,367
but I do notice,
the door has big cracks.
335
00:18:44,367 --> 00:18:47,000
And that tells me that
there's ton of body work
underneath there,
336
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,867
so that's probably why
the paint came off
with the decal.
337
00:18:49,867 --> 00:18:52,900
It actually looks really good
until you start looking at it
really close.
338
00:18:52,900 --> 00:18:54,667
It has crow's feet
all over it.
339
00:18:54,667 --> 00:18:56,367
So, we're gonna have to
strip it all down
340
00:18:56,367 --> 00:18:58,266
and come back
with some new material.
341
00:18:58,266 --> 00:19:00,934
-[grinder whirring]
-[rock music playing]
342
00:19:26,166 --> 00:19:27,767
We're officially
getting started on this
343
00:19:27,767 --> 00:19:29,967
Torino is, uh,
I'm gonna take the doors off.
344
00:19:29,967 --> 00:19:31,900
Like any other
old classic car,
345
00:19:31,900 --> 00:19:33,266
once you start
digging into 'em,
346
00:19:33,266 --> 00:19:35,467
you start finding
a bunch of stuff like this.
347
00:19:35,467 --> 00:19:37,467
And there's been some,
patch panels have been done.
348
00:19:37,467 --> 00:19:39,967
So before I
remove these doors,
I gotta make some marks.
349
00:19:43,667 --> 00:19:47,700
What I'm gonna do is
just mark the inside
of the highest pitch.
350
00:19:47,700 --> 00:19:51,567
Mark the actual body line
with a tape before I take
the door off,
351
00:19:51,567 --> 00:19:53,734
so that way I can compare
it to the quarter panel.
352
00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:00,066
This is why you
drill these holes is,
when you're done,
353
00:20:00,066 --> 00:20:02,166
gap and everything,
you drill these holes,
354
00:20:02,166 --> 00:20:04,200
you get you some stick pins
and you put 'em in there.
355
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:06,367
And this ensures that
the door's going on
356
00:20:06,367 --> 00:20:08,266
right back to the way it was
357
00:20:08,266 --> 00:20:10,066
before you start
disassembling the car.
358
00:20:25,166 --> 00:20:27,467
Now that I got the door off,
what I'm fixing to do is,
359
00:20:27,467 --> 00:20:30,867
I'm just, go ahead and just
buzz over the whole door
with some 80 grit paper.
360
00:20:30,867 --> 00:20:33,100
And there's some paint here.
361
00:20:33,100 --> 00:20:34,800
I'm going to
take that off as well.
362
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:36,967
[rock music playing]
363
00:20:55,467 --> 00:20:57,300
Right now, I'm working, uh,
364
00:20:57,300 --> 00:20:59,000
on the driver side
quarter panel.
365
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:00,567
I've already finished
the passenger side.
366
00:21:00,567 --> 00:21:02,667
Shorty went ahead
and replaced this
lower rocker panel.
367
00:21:02,667 --> 00:21:04,000
It was a little rusted out.
368
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:05,867
Now I'm gonna
start applying my filler.
369
00:21:05,867 --> 00:21:08,967
But before I did that,
I went ahead and
marked off my body line
370
00:21:08,967 --> 00:21:12,667
'cause I wanna have
a nice, straight,
razor-sharp body line.
371
00:21:12,667 --> 00:21:15,000
It'd be so sharp,
you'll cut yourself on it.
372
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,133
[upbeat music playing]
373
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:24,734
[Joe] Ooh, ooh, ooh-wee!
374
00:21:34,667 --> 00:21:37,667
So now, since I already
got the body work done
on the bottom here,
375
00:21:37,667 --> 00:21:40,867
I'm gonna proceed with
putting body filler up on top.
376
00:21:40,867 --> 00:21:44,100
I'm gonna lay my body filler
across this whole area.
377
00:21:44,100 --> 00:21:46,200
And it'll make it
a lot easier for me to block.
378
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:48,500
It's a big, big quarter panel,
379
00:21:48,500 --> 00:21:50,667
so what I'm gonna do is
I'm gonna call upon my,
380
00:21:50,667 --> 00:21:52,400
my good long-time friend.
381
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:53,834
Let me introduce you to him.
382
00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:59,367
This right here's Big Bertha.
383
00:21:59,367 --> 00:22:00,800
She covers a big area,
384
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:03,467
and being that it's flat,
it'll work perfect for me.
385
00:22:03,467 --> 00:22:05,600
Not only does it ensure
that the body is straight,
386
00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:09,100
but it helps tremendously
to have something this big
to block.
387
00:22:09,100 --> 00:22:12,600
Everything is bigger in Texas.
Even the blocks.
388
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,233
[upbeat music playing]
389
00:22:30,467 --> 00:22:33,166
It's another good day.
We're fixing to roll
the Torino in the booth
390
00:22:33,166 --> 00:22:34,567
and get the whole in primer.
391
00:22:34,567 --> 00:22:36,100
We're all done
with the body work.
392
00:22:36,100 --> 00:22:38,000
I think Joe did
a great job on it.
393
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:41,367
I'm excited. We need to
get it in there and
keep on going.
394
00:22:41,367 --> 00:22:43,767
Well, well, just on time.
395
00:22:43,767 --> 00:22:45,467
-[Terry] What are you saying?
-[Joe] We already come
prepared, man.
396
00:22:45,467 --> 00:22:47,300
-We already got
some gloves on.
-Look at this, man.
397
00:22:47,300 --> 00:22:49,266
Man, y'all are prepared, man.
398
00:22:49,266 --> 00:22:50,934
Y'all take it slow, okay?
399
00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:59,500
I think that's good, man.
That's awesome.
400
00:22:59,500 --> 00:23:01,500
Heck yeah.
401
00:23:01,500 --> 00:23:04,166
[rock music playing]
402
00:23:14,900 --> 00:23:17,133
[music continues]
403
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,266
We got our Torino in the booth
and primed.
404
00:23:27,266 --> 00:23:30,600
The car is ready to start
blocking and wet sanding,
405
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:32,266
and then get the car
ready for paint.
406
00:23:32,266 --> 00:23:34,367
[rock music playing]
407
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:43,867
[Shorty speaks indistinctly]
408
00:23:43,867 --> 00:23:47,000
Once we get this done,
we'll prime it one more time.
409
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:48,800
And that means water sanding.
410
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:50,533
So that means
block party time.
411
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:53,867
You want nice
and sharp body lines,
412
00:23:53,867 --> 00:23:56,066
and you make sure that
the same line you have here
413
00:23:56,066 --> 00:23:57,467
runs all the way through.
414
00:23:57,467 --> 00:24:00,400
I call it the,
"starching that line,"
you know what I mean?
415
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,233
Taking it to the cleaners
and getting the starch
really good.
416
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:19,867
[man 1] I think this is
a lonely block party.
417
00:24:19,867 --> 00:24:21,567
[man 2] A lonely block party?
418
00:24:21,567 --> 00:24:24,000
Only me and you work.
Where's everybody at?
419
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:27,367
Well, think you ought to
hit that horn. Wake 'em up.
420
00:24:27,367 --> 00:24:29,967
-Hey, call our own
block party.
-All right, go ahead.
421
00:24:29,967 --> 00:24:32,467
[horn blaring]
422
00:24:32,467 --> 00:24:33,867
[Shorty] They beat me to it,
Joel.
423
00:24:33,867 --> 00:24:35,600
Man, that horn went off
by itself.
424
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:36,867
I don't know what happened.
425
00:24:36,867 --> 00:24:38,634
[Shorty] I guess it's time
to block that car.
426
00:24:42,467 --> 00:24:44,266
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
y'all been doing good, man.
427
00:24:44,266 --> 00:24:45,767
Got all the back done.
428
00:24:45,767 --> 00:24:48,467
-Sorry we weren't
here to help you.
-[man 1 laughs]
429
00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:55,567
This block party,
we're under a time crunch.
430
00:24:55,567 --> 00:24:56,667
What else is new,
right fellas?
431
00:24:56,667 --> 00:24:58,100
-[man 3] Yeah.
-[man 4] What else is new?
432
00:24:58,100 --> 00:25:00,166
-[man 3] Heck yeah.
-That's why we had to bring in
the dream team, man.
433
00:25:00,166 --> 00:25:02,567
These are pretty cool.
I like it.
434
00:25:02,567 --> 00:25:04,367
-I love it.
-[man 5] You just don't ever
see 'em either.
435
00:25:04,367 --> 00:25:06,567
-Only on the movie,
Gran Torino.
-[Shorty] Yup.
436
00:25:06,567 --> 00:25:09,066
Clint Eastwood drove up,
and he's cool, man.
437
00:25:09,066 --> 00:25:10,867
-[man 6 laughs]
-He's a cool dude.
438
00:25:14,567 --> 00:25:17,200
[Joel] We got Junior
on the grill today, man.
He's tearing it up.
439
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:18,734
He's damn good at it too.
440
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:20,533
Uh-uh.
441
00:25:22,567 --> 00:25:25,000
[woman 1] This is
our contribution to
the block party.
442
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:26,166
[woman 2] Exactly.
443
00:25:27,500 --> 00:25:29,433
-[woman 3] Is there
anything else?
-Yup.
444
00:25:34,500 --> 00:25:37,066
When we get together
for this kind of things,
it's always...
445
00:25:37,066 --> 00:25:38,567
It kind of rejuvenates you.
446
00:25:38,567 --> 00:25:40,367
And then you realize
what it's all about.
447
00:25:40,367 --> 00:25:42,367
It looks delicious.
Y'all come up, let's eat.
448
00:25:42,367 --> 00:25:43,967
-Dig in.
-Thank you, Romeo.
449
00:25:43,967 --> 00:25:45,233
Thanks, Romeo.
450
00:25:46,667 --> 00:25:49,233
[upbeat music playing]
451
00:25:57,800 --> 00:25:59,767
[Shorty] Real pieces of onion.
452
00:25:59,767 --> 00:26:01,233
[laughs]
453
00:26:02,767 --> 00:26:05,467
Thank you guys for everything,
and I look forward to
the next one.
454
00:26:05,467 --> 00:26:07,000
[man 7] Hell yeah.
455
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:08,934
-[man 1] Us too.
-Cut.
456
00:26:12,767 --> 00:26:14,900
We got the Torino
in the kitchen
457
00:26:14,900 --> 00:26:17,767
and we're about to put
some color on it.
458
00:26:17,767 --> 00:26:19,200
We got a beautiful
red right here.
459
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:22,200
Uh, we're gonna go back
with the same color
the car had.
460
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:24,967
Danny was telling me about
him having one of these
461
00:26:24,967 --> 00:26:27,467
in his younger days.
462
00:26:27,467 --> 00:26:30,000
He bought the car
because it means a lot to him.
463
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:31,767
Danny will be excited,
464
00:26:31,767 --> 00:26:34,100
uh, you know,
to see some color on his car.
465
00:26:34,100 --> 00:26:37,266
And I think no one's gonna be
more excited than me.
466
00:26:37,266 --> 00:26:40,700
This car has got a little
Clint Eastwood theme,
you know?
467
00:26:40,700 --> 00:26:43,467
'Cause Clint Eastwood
did a Torino,
468
00:26:43,467 --> 00:26:47,533
so it's gonna make my day
when I put this red on.
469
00:26:48,367 --> 00:26:51,533
[rock music playing]
470
00:27:02,367 --> 00:27:05,333
[music continues]
471
00:27:16,500 --> 00:27:18,166
Oh, shoot, man, you got the,
472
00:27:18,166 --> 00:27:20,367
-got some color on it,
huh, Short Dog?
-What's up, T-Money?
473
00:27:20,367 --> 00:27:21,800
-On the Torino?
-Yeah, man, look.
474
00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:24,400
-[Danny] It looks great.
-[Shorty] We haven't
shot in any red cars,
475
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:25,800
but man I really like this.
476
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:27,900
[Danny] So you're getting
ready to measure the stripes?
477
00:27:27,900 --> 00:27:29,767
-Yeah, these are decals,
you know. Yeah.
-Decals, yeah.
478
00:27:29,767 --> 00:27:32,600
[Shorty] I'm gonna
put these back on it
but with paint.
479
00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:35,000
I have the templates that
I made originally for the car,
480
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:36,767
but you know what?
Once I got in the booth,
481
00:27:36,767 --> 00:27:39,200
I got in the zone,
I started laying down
some tape,
482
00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:40,266
and you know what?
483
00:27:40,266 --> 00:27:42,300
I got it looking like
it was from the factory.
484
00:27:42,300 --> 00:27:44,000
Just a little trick, D.
485
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:47,166
I like to put a piece of tape
right there,
486
00:27:47,166 --> 00:27:49,433
and then another
piece of tape...
487
00:27:51,166 --> 00:27:53,266
-[Danny] Over the ends.
-...where it ends.
488
00:27:53,266 --> 00:27:55,367
Once you do that,
then you can actually
489
00:27:56,700 --> 00:27:59,400
-do this right here.
-[Danny] Just set it down
on top of it.
490
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:02,867
[Shorty] Just set it
right on top of each other,
and then you just, boom.
491
00:28:06,967 --> 00:28:10,133
Gonna do the stripes back
to their original look.
492
00:28:13,700 --> 00:28:16,100
It should be seven right here.
493
00:28:16,100 --> 00:28:17,500
Which it is.
494
00:28:17,500 --> 00:28:19,400
And then it should be
six back here.
495
00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:20,767
Which it is.
496
00:28:20,767 --> 00:28:23,066
Tape it up and get some color.
497
00:28:23,066 --> 00:28:24,934
Start shooting paint on it.
498
00:28:32,467 --> 00:28:35,300
[Shorty] We're in the kitchen.
We're mixing up some
ingredients.
499
00:28:35,300 --> 00:28:36,900
These are decals.
500
00:28:36,900 --> 00:28:39,367
Really cool-looking
and fluorescent.
501
00:28:39,367 --> 00:28:42,100
Uh, but we're not gonna
put those back on.
502
00:28:42,100 --> 00:28:43,467
We're actually
gonna paint this.
503
00:28:43,467 --> 00:28:44,767
Custom paint 'em on the car.
504
00:28:44,767 --> 00:28:46,767
I wanna give Danny something
a little extra.
505
00:28:46,767 --> 00:28:50,000
I got all my colors here.
They kind of gradually
get darker.
506
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,367
I think with these
custom colors that
we're gonna put on it,
507
00:28:52,367 --> 00:28:55,066
uh, it'll be just as nice,
just as radiant,
508
00:28:55,066 --> 00:28:57,266
so I think he'll like it.
509
00:28:57,266 --> 00:29:00,166
[rock music playing]
510
00:29:11,867 --> 00:29:14,000
Have it pretty close to
what the factory is.
511
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,300
Just a little bit
minor change, and that's it.
512
00:29:16,300 --> 00:29:18,700
That's the thing.
That's what's gonna
set the car apart.
513
00:29:18,700 --> 00:29:20,467
It's still gonna look factory,
514
00:29:20,467 --> 00:29:23,066
but it's gonna have
just little bit of change,
that's it.
515
00:29:27,667 --> 00:29:29,567
We got all of our
graphics typed up.
516
00:29:29,567 --> 00:29:31,867
And now I'm gonna
mix up some black
517
00:29:31,867 --> 00:29:33,900
and put the border
around the black.
518
00:29:33,900 --> 00:29:36,867
Once I do that, I unmask it,
get ready for clear.
519
00:29:36,867 --> 00:29:39,734
-[paint gun hissing]
-[rock music playing]
520
00:29:51,867 --> 00:29:53,467
[Shorty] We got
the graphics painted,
521
00:29:53,467 --> 00:29:56,767
and this is where
the excitement begins
522
00:29:56,767 --> 00:30:00,567
because this is where you,
where you start to see,
523
00:30:00,567 --> 00:30:03,100
you know, what you did
and how it looks.
524
00:30:03,100 --> 00:30:05,433
[upbeat music playing]
525
00:30:12,300 --> 00:30:14,066
Check out the other side.
Tell me what you think.
526
00:30:14,066 --> 00:30:16,800
-Dang, man.
-[emphatically] Sweet!
527
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:19,266
-[man 8] Hey, that's a decal.
-[Joe] That's a decal.
That gotta be a decal.
528
00:30:19,266 --> 00:30:20,467
-[Shorty laughs]
-[man 8] It looks good.
529
00:30:20,467 --> 00:30:22,166
I should have this cleared
by tomorrow morning.
530
00:30:22,166 --> 00:30:24,400
By tomorrow afternoon,
should have it out.
531
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:25,700
I should be shooting
the motor tomorrow,
532
00:30:25,700 --> 00:30:28,266
so the motor should be
ready and painted,
brother Carl.
533
00:30:28,266 --> 00:30:30,100
-[Carl] Right.
-So you can get it put in.
534
00:30:30,100 --> 00:30:31,667
-Get going.
-Get it going now.
535
00:30:31,667 --> 00:30:33,634
[Joe] For assembly.
536
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:38,000
Today, we're gonna
work on the '71 Torino.
537
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,767
We're converting
the carburetor system
to EFI system.
538
00:30:40,767 --> 00:30:44,100
First thing we're gonna do
is take the tank down
and get it cleaned up,
539
00:30:44,100 --> 00:30:46,500
and find a location
for a new sending unit.
540
00:30:46,500 --> 00:30:49,100
Truthfully, we need to be
in this pocket right here
541
00:30:49,100 --> 00:30:50,967
'cause I think we got
more depth over there.
542
00:30:50,967 --> 00:30:53,367
[Terry] It's always gonna
lay in the tank like this
right here?
543
00:30:53,367 --> 00:30:55,367
Yeah, but if there's
not enough depth,
544
00:30:55,367 --> 00:30:56,800
it's gonna kink this line.
545
00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:59,467
We'll just kinda see
where it's at and go
from there.
546
00:30:59,467 --> 00:31:02,000
All right, so the next thing
is to get it cleaned up.
547
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,233
[generator starts]
548
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,266
-[Joel] Okay.
-[Terry] Yeah.
549
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:17,767
I've got to pop the hole
in the gas tank
550
00:31:17,767 --> 00:31:20,667
to add basically
the new sending unit
551
00:31:20,667 --> 00:31:22,100
and new fuel pump.
552
00:31:22,100 --> 00:31:24,634
[rock music playing]
553
00:31:30,767 --> 00:31:32,166
[Joel] Now we got
the hole cut,
554
00:31:32,166 --> 00:31:34,900
we're gonna use a magnet
to basically get all of
the loose debris.
555
00:31:34,900 --> 00:31:37,934
Wash it out
with some water
and install our new pump.
556
00:31:38,700 --> 00:31:41,767
This fuel assembly
is set at 58 PSI.
557
00:31:41,767 --> 00:31:43,200
Normally, there would be
a return here,
558
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:45,767
but it's already
set at 58 PSI.
559
00:31:45,767 --> 00:31:48,200
That means it's gonna
return the unwanted fuel
560
00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:50,667
right in here, which keeps it
all in the tank.
561
00:31:50,667 --> 00:31:52,266
It's all self-contained
right here.
562
00:31:52,266 --> 00:31:55,100
They put this extra
thick cushion here,
563
00:31:55,100 --> 00:31:56,400
which is your seal,
564
00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:59,400
and it seals even over ribs
and everything.
565
00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:00,834
Really cool design.
566
00:32:04,367 --> 00:32:05,567
Hell yeah.
567
00:32:09,166 --> 00:32:11,066
Right now, I'm gonna work
on the motor color
568
00:32:11,066 --> 00:32:12,667
for our '71 Torino.
569
00:32:12,667 --> 00:32:15,300
I wanna go with kind of
the original motor color.
570
00:32:15,300 --> 00:32:16,700
But I wanna change it up
just a little bit.
571
00:32:16,700 --> 00:32:18,767
I thought it was
too bright of a blue.
572
00:32:18,767 --> 00:32:21,000
Danny gave me free range
on the motor color.
573
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:25,367
Initially, I was thinking
about maybe some bronzes,
maybe some browns.
574
00:32:25,367 --> 00:32:27,500
But Danny is
a hardcore Ford guy,
575
00:32:27,500 --> 00:32:31,100
so I decided to go
with my own version
of Ford Blue.
576
00:32:31,100 --> 00:32:34,767
We're gonna start off
with the blue, of course.
577
00:32:34,767 --> 00:32:36,800
We got our foundation.
We got our blue.
578
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:39,400
That's just a dark blue
off the mixing machine,
579
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:41,367
and I wanna make it
a little lighter.
580
00:32:41,367 --> 00:32:43,567
I'll put a couple more
drops of white.
581
00:32:43,567 --> 00:32:45,300
Okay, this is what I want.
Something like this.
582
00:32:45,300 --> 00:32:48,100
When he opens the hood,
gonna be that little diamond.
583
00:32:48,100 --> 00:32:51,166
Right there in that box,
just shining like a star.
584
00:32:51,166 --> 00:32:52,667
That's what's gonna be.
585
00:32:52,667 --> 00:32:55,066
[rock music playing]
586
00:32:57,266 --> 00:32:58,934
[Shorty] Yeah,
let's turn it around.
587
00:33:01,100 --> 00:33:02,667
Got another duck
in the kitchen,
588
00:33:02,667 --> 00:33:05,066
put some paint in my gun
and get going.
589
00:33:06,467 --> 00:33:08,867
[rock music playing]
590
00:33:39,667 --> 00:33:40,867
Drop it, Joel.
591
00:33:42,467 --> 00:33:44,200
[Shorty] If we push
straight down, we're in.
592
00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:46,367
Push the front of this car
a little higher in here.
593
00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:49,367
[Carl] Let it down
a bit, Shorty.
594
00:33:53,266 --> 00:33:55,734
[Shorty] Before we tighten
everything up, probably
a good idea to look at it.
595
00:34:01,367 --> 00:34:04,467
This hose and this setup
was never designed for
596
00:34:04,467 --> 00:34:07,667
any kind of high pressure
deal like a fuel injection
requires.
597
00:34:07,667 --> 00:34:10,166
So, that's the reason
we're gonna eliminate
598
00:34:10,166 --> 00:34:12,166
this piece of rubber
and these clamps.
599
00:34:14,467 --> 00:34:16,200
Exactly.
600
00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:18,133
It's gonna be
blowing stuff everywhere.
601
00:34:22,867 --> 00:34:25,266
Normally, a carburetor runs at
602
00:34:25,266 --> 00:34:27,467
six to eight pounds
of fuel pressure.
603
00:34:27,467 --> 00:34:31,467
A fuel injection system
requires, in this case,
it's 58 pounds.
604
00:34:31,467 --> 00:34:34,467
So we kind of had to upgrade
the rest of the fuel system.
605
00:34:39,567 --> 00:34:43,500
This new poly system
has the fuel pump mounted
in the gas tank.
606
00:34:43,500 --> 00:34:47,400
So, it's actually,
the whole system
is now pressurized
607
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:48,867
from the tank itself.
608
00:34:53,767 --> 00:34:57,467
[Pete] Today, my job
is to build Mr. Simpson
a console.
609
00:34:57,467 --> 00:34:59,166
This is this front side wall.
610
00:34:59,166 --> 00:35:01,667
This is the front plate
where the radio goes.
611
00:35:01,667 --> 00:35:03,266
Cup holders go to the back,
612
00:35:03,266 --> 00:35:06,000
and this will be
the armrest and storage.
613
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:08,567
If you could get that going,
we'll get it to manual.
614
00:35:08,567 --> 00:35:10,066
[upbeat music playing]
615
00:35:20,900 --> 00:35:22,600
It's looking good.
616
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:24,500
We got the cup holders
to the back.
617
00:35:24,500 --> 00:35:26,667
We're going to leave it
a little bit down.
618
00:35:26,667 --> 00:35:29,200
That way, we could
take this off with magnets.
619
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:31,200
Let's start
putting it together.
620
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:32,634
[man] It'll be super glue.
621
00:35:40,467 --> 00:35:43,367
Oh, yeah, I like that.
Got the cup holders there.
622
00:35:44,166 --> 00:35:46,367
And we got the radio.
623
00:35:46,367 --> 00:35:48,200
So the console
came out super.
624
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:52,367
Just need one more piece
to be routed out
and it's over to manual.
625
00:35:52,367 --> 00:35:56,000
There's still adjustments
we need to do
to make sure it fits.
626
00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:58,700
So what I'm gonna
do right now,
get it up in there,
627
00:35:58,700 --> 00:36:00,433
make my marks cut
if I need to cut.
628
00:36:01,467 --> 00:36:04,266
And then, take it back to PG
and get it wrapped up.
629
00:36:04,266 --> 00:36:06,767
-[Shorty] How's it look?
-It's coming' along good.
630
00:36:06,767 --> 00:36:09,166
I love it, man.
I think it's gonna look great.
631
00:36:18,700 --> 00:36:20,233
[rock music playing]
632
00:36:36,266 --> 00:36:39,100
Make sure you keep
your hand in between
the trunk and the car.
633
00:36:39,100 --> 00:36:40,400
And look right here, man.
634
00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:41,767
Joel and Ryan
are up in the front.
635
00:36:41,767 --> 00:36:44,066
Hopefully, we'll fire it out
here in a second.
636
00:36:44,066 --> 00:36:46,867
In the meantime,
me and the boys
are gonna work on trying
637
00:36:46,867 --> 00:36:48,500
to button up
all the little stuff
here and there.
638
00:36:48,500 --> 00:36:51,066
Hopefully, Danny'll be, uh,
happy when he sees
the car tomorrow.
639
00:36:52,266 --> 00:36:53,667
That's what we want.
640
00:36:54,967 --> 00:36:56,066
Is that drinkable?
641
00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:57,767
-Yeah.
-Yeah?
642
00:36:57,767 --> 00:36:58,967
[Ryan] It's like
an energy drink.
643
00:36:58,967 --> 00:37:00,400
-Really?
-Hmm.
644
00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:01,400
-[Joel] Sweet?
-Hmm.
645
00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:03,233
-Tastes like crap.
-Probably. [scoffs]
646
00:37:05,166 --> 00:37:07,200
[engine starts, sputters]
647
00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:08,333
[Joel] Oh, it ain't working.
648
00:37:10,166 --> 00:37:11,433
Try it again.
649
00:37:12,266 --> 00:37:13,667
Fire in the hole.
650
00:37:13,667 --> 00:37:14,934
[engine starts]
651
00:37:16,967 --> 00:37:18,233
[engine revving]
652
00:37:22,266 --> 00:37:23,266
There we go.
653
00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:25,133
All right, hold on.
654
00:37:26,767 --> 00:37:27,834
A little more.
655
00:37:28,867 --> 00:37:31,667
Well, at this point,
uh, let's shut it down.
656
00:37:31,667 --> 00:37:34,767
Let's, uh, let's get the guys
up here and, uh,
657
00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:36,467
let's make magic.
658
00:37:42,767 --> 00:37:44,667
Y'all got a minute,
we're gonna
bust this thing up.
659
00:37:44,667 --> 00:37:45,867
Let's listen to it.
660
00:37:45,867 --> 00:37:47,266
[engine starts]
661
00:37:49,467 --> 00:37:50,734
[cheers]
662
00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:54,166
[engine revving]
663
00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:56,834
Heck yeah.
664
00:37:56,834 --> 00:37:58,266
-Sounds really good.
-Right to the bone.
665
00:38:00,867 --> 00:38:02,667
Sounds good. Joel.
Nice and strong.
666
00:38:02,667 --> 00:38:04,266
We don't do many Fords,
667
00:38:04,266 --> 00:38:06,800
but I think anyone of us
would love to cruise this car.
668
00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:08,066
-Right, T?
-Definitely.
669
00:38:08,066 --> 00:38:10,300
-I think Clint Eastwood
would be proud.
-[man] He would.
670
00:38:10,300 --> 00:38:12,700
-He would have said,
"You made my day."
-[chuckles]
671
00:38:12,700 --> 00:38:15,166
-[man 1 exclaims] Boy!
-[man 2] Right on,
look at this.
672
00:38:18,166 --> 00:38:19,667
[upbeat music playing]
673
00:38:25,700 --> 00:38:26,800
This is the big day.
674
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:28,867
We're putting
the final touches
on the '71 Torino.
675
00:38:28,867 --> 00:38:31,367
We've got everybody
trying to finish up the car,
676
00:38:31,367 --> 00:38:33,233
you know, Danny's
going to be here today.
677
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:35,033
So we're excited, man.
678
00:38:38,367 --> 00:38:41,166
[Pedro] We're working
on installing the console
for Mr. Simpson.
679
00:38:41,166 --> 00:38:43,967
And we're gonna go ahead
and start adjusting the seats,
680
00:38:43,967 --> 00:38:47,467
installing the door panels,
and getting it
buttoned up for him.
681
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:58,934
Been doing this too many years
and I can probably
do it with my eyes closed.
682
00:39:05,567 --> 00:39:07,166
[rock music playing]
683
00:39:09,266 --> 00:39:11,834
You know, we're thrashing
to the end
to get this thing done.
684
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:14,333
Time is what we don't have.
685
00:39:18,300 --> 00:39:20,066
The motor sounds
killer too, man.
686
00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:34,634
How are y'all?
687
00:39:35,467 --> 00:39:37,467
Good to see you.
How are you doing, Danny?
688
00:39:37,467 --> 00:39:39,900
-Well, are you guys
ready to see the car?
-[Danny] Absolutely.
689
00:39:39,900 --> 00:39:41,266
Ready to drive my car.
690
00:39:41,266 --> 00:39:43,100
I've been waiting and waiting.
I'll follow you.
691
00:39:43,100 --> 00:39:44,066
[Shorty] All right, let's go.
692
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:48,667
Wow.
693
00:39:48,667 --> 00:39:49,800
Can't believe it.
694
00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:51,867
-What do you think, Danny?
-Looks like a brand-new one.
695
00:39:51,867 --> 00:39:53,967
Looks like when I bought
mine in high school.
696
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:00,367
That is gorgeous.
697
00:40:00,367 --> 00:40:01,567
It looks amazing.
698
00:40:02,100 --> 00:40:03,400
Paint's wonderful.
699
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:05,000
Man, Shorty killed it.
700
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,367
The car's gonna look amazing
because of the paint,
701
00:40:07,367 --> 00:40:08,934
you know, when
Shorty's the one doing it.
702
00:40:11,166 --> 00:40:13,166
[Shorty] These
are all the guys
and they all pitched in
703
00:40:13,166 --> 00:40:15,934
to get the car look
like the one you had
in high school.
704
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:20,166
So we just made
a few little changes.
705
00:40:20,166 --> 00:40:23,767
-The stripe, it's no longer
a decal. It's painted on.
-Beautiful.
706
00:40:23,767 --> 00:40:25,000
It's gorgeous.
707
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:26,300
The stripes look beautiful
708
00:40:26,300 --> 00:40:29,767
and I like the idea
that it's paint
instead of a decal.
709
00:40:29,767 --> 00:40:31,133
You did a great job.
710
00:40:31,367 --> 00:40:32,300
Perfect job.
711
00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:35,367
[Shorty] We put a new
windshield in the front.
712
00:40:35,367 --> 00:40:38,100
-That other one was,
you know, pretty far gone.
-[Carl] Brand-new.
713
00:40:38,100 --> 00:40:39,066
[Danny] Let's see the engine.
714
00:40:41,266 --> 00:40:44,166
Shorty kinda updated the blue
just a little bit.
715
00:40:44,166 --> 00:40:47,433
You know, it's--
it's real close
to the factory Ford blue.
716
00:40:47,867 --> 00:40:49,567
It's this beautiful blue.
717
00:40:50,166 --> 00:40:51,600
Never saw anything prettier.
718
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:54,166
I think we did a really
good job cleaning up
the engine bay
719
00:40:54,166 --> 00:40:57,100
and, you know, brewing up
my own Ford motor blue.
720
00:40:57,100 --> 00:40:58,967
If somebody from Ford
was watching,
721
00:40:58,967 --> 00:41:01,066
I think that's the blue
that they ought to use.
722
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:04,500
We installed VFI
fuel injection system.
723
00:41:04,500 --> 00:41:06,467
It adjusts itself,
which is a neat deal.
724
00:41:06,467 --> 00:41:09,867
It adjusts air fuel ratio,
it adjusts the timing
on its own,
725
00:41:09,867 --> 00:41:11,634
and so, you know,
it's just more efficient.
726
00:41:15,367 --> 00:41:17,767
So you have your
radio Bluetooth right there.
727
00:41:17,767 --> 00:41:19,967
And then, the little pouch
for your phone.
728
00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:21,967
You got cup holders.
729
00:41:21,967 --> 00:41:23,266
I think that the interior
is really nice.
730
00:41:23,266 --> 00:41:26,500
PG came up
with a really simple
but good-looking console.
731
00:41:26,500 --> 00:41:28,066
It's just perfect for the car.
732
00:41:30,667 --> 00:41:32,834
-You like the way it sounds?
-It's wonderful.
733
00:41:33,367 --> 00:41:34,767
Absolutely wonderful.
734
00:41:34,767 --> 00:41:36,300
[laughs]
735
00:41:36,300 --> 00:41:40,567
Thrilling to get back
in it again, I can't wait
to drive around town.
736
00:41:40,567 --> 00:41:41,634
Thank you.
737
00:41:43,667 --> 00:41:45,467
You can tell, in his eyes,
738
00:41:45,467 --> 00:41:49,000
he was just kinda
having little flashbacks
of what it was years ago.
739
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:51,300
He could see himself
in that time.
740
00:41:51,300 --> 00:41:52,667
Thank you so much.
741
00:41:53,467 --> 00:41:54,767
Gorgeous car.
742
00:41:54,767 --> 00:41:56,967
You know, we're always trying
to make dreams come true.
743
00:41:56,967 --> 00:41:58,300
We're always trying
to do our best,
744
00:41:58,300 --> 00:42:00,567
and today, Danny
got his Torino back,
745
00:42:00,567 --> 00:42:02,834
and I think his dream
came true again.
746
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:07,266
He's already wanting
to give it a go, Joel.
747
00:42:07,266 --> 00:42:09,500
[Joel] I see that, man.
He's got a little racer
in him, man.
748
00:42:09,500 --> 00:42:11,500
We've got that long road
in my house
749
00:42:11,500 --> 00:42:14,000
-we can go along
up and down.
-Oh, yeah.
750
00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:16,700
We'll take the 22 out
and see which one wins.
751
00:42:16,700 --> 00:42:18,634
-Depends on who's driving.
-[chuckles]
752
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:25,600
Well, thanks, again,
it was great.
It was an honor.
753
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:27,700
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
754
00:42:27,700 --> 00:42:29,700
-Thank you, Joel.
-You're welcome, sir.
755
00:42:29,700 --> 00:42:31,567
Thanks, sir. Thank you, guys.
756
00:42:31,567 --> 00:42:33,867
I think that the Torino body
757
00:42:33,867 --> 00:42:38,000
is probably one
of the most iconic bodies
that Ford ever built.
758
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:41,467
It feels awesome seeing
this Torino out
in the open road,
759
00:42:41,467 --> 00:42:43,333
the arm out,
and just cruising.
760
00:42:44,667 --> 00:42:47,567
I think Mr. Simpson
is gonna do the same.
When he gets it back,
761
00:42:47,567 --> 00:42:50,767
he's gonna go think,
back in his high school years
where he was dating,
762
00:42:50,767 --> 00:42:52,934
and he's gonna go back
to being a teenager.
763
00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:03,700
[chuckles]
764
00:43:03,700 --> 00:43:04,800
Hey, T, who's that, man?
765
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:05,967
This year was an awesome year.
766
00:43:05,967 --> 00:43:07,500
Is this the house of Shorty?
767
00:43:07,500 --> 00:43:11,166
We had a couple of guests
from high, high up, you know.
768
00:43:11,166 --> 00:43:12,867
-What do y'all think?
-[man] Beautiful.
769
00:43:12,867 --> 00:43:14,967
When they came in,
I handed each one
of them a gun.
770
00:43:14,967 --> 00:43:16,567
-This one's for you.
-Okay.
771
00:43:16,567 --> 00:43:18,166
And this one's for you.
772
00:43:18,166 --> 00:43:21,066
We're gonna go
get some dinner.
We'll be back.
773
00:43:21,066 --> 00:43:22,200
And I don't know
if they knew that,
774
00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:23,266
but there was nothing
in the gun,
775
00:43:23,266 --> 00:43:24,567
but yet, they were
going down to try
776
00:43:24,567 --> 00:43:26,967
to get done whatever it was
that needed to be done.
777
00:43:26,967 --> 00:43:28,600
All right,
let's get to work.
