Talk Cars Radio, Dave Polage.

Speaker 2 (00:48):
Is that any.

Speaker 3 (00:48):
America you're listen Let's Talk Cars Radio and WKQA for
your radio, I'm host Big DAVP, hangout camera, KAOS and AVB. Hey,
as I always tell you guys, it's probably a great
day for a car show. It's definitely a good day
for a radio show. Just exactly what your weather always is, right,
so fingers crossed, your weather is really good where you
guys are at and you're out and joining a car show,
or if not, you got yourself a little drinking drinking,

(01:09):
you found yourself a comfortable, comfortable chair and you're hanging
out with us listening to the show, So I'm gonna
jump into it this week. I would like to let
you guys know that White Noise is coming out of
the Body Shop. So that is happening. We're excited.

Speaker 2 (01:22):
It looks really good.

Speaker 3 (01:23):
It does. It looks it came out nice. More stuff
to be done, so I think I told you guys,
I never know where to leave things alone. Originally we
talked about just doing some quick things on White Noise.
If you don't know what White Noise is, because the
first time you guys ever logged into the show, checked
it out, heard on the radio. Whatever it is wherever
you guys are listening. White Noise is our nineteen sixty

(01:46):
nine Nova Project car that has been sitting in the
body shop since basically right after Christmas. So it is
coming out. It's finally done. It's called White Noise because
the car is white, so yeah, that's the reason why.
And it's black and if you remember White Noise static
on tea white and black sh yep, So that's kind
of how we came up with the name for it.
So I was gonna leave it alone. I was just

(02:07):
gonna go to paint. It was gonna be the end
of it. I was gonna do just a couple of
little things to it. We clearly, yeah, welely decided we're
not doing that. And here's the reason why it makes
sense to us, and hopefully it makes sense to you guys.
We've already kind of missed some of the marks on
some of the shows we plan on taking the car
to already, because things to go a little longer than
we thought, which is really nobody's fault, you know, getting parts,

(02:28):
making sure we had the right parts, getting things order,
waiting for them, things on back quorder, you name it.
You guys don't know how it is when you work
on cars. So some of the shows I really want
to take the car to to show it off have
coming gone, And since that's the case, why not just
go ahead and do some little extra stuff to it
and then maybe, if everything goes all right, hit some
of the last shows at the end of the year
with it. If we don't, no hard feelings.

Speaker 4 (02:51):
Just always next year.

Speaker 3 (02:52):
You guys will see it as one of the first
cars that come out in the beginning of the year
once we hit our February show. Because I have news
for you guys, February is gonna come around very quickly.
I cannot believe we're already rushing very very quickly into
the end of the summer. Before you know it, it
hits October, and then Christmas is right on the way.
So it's gonna go by fast. Trust me. Seema for
Us is right around the corner. We're already, Like I said,

(03:13):
we've been planning for months now for our semi trip
in Vegas. If you guys are gonna be out at
Seema in Vegas, come look us up. We'll be out
there like we all usually are. You can't miss us.
You're gonna see the cameras. You're gonna see us. We'll
be doing an interview, So stop in, say hi and
do me a favor. Don't do anything in front of
the camera like y'all did last year. We can't put
it that. Can't go on the air. I know y'all
think it's funny. Can't go on the air. Nope, cameras

(03:33):
are they're going no, because Zach what I'm talking about. So, yeah,
what we're filming. Love it like hanging out with you
guys and talking to you guys, But yeah, I gotta
be careful what you're doing. In front of the cameras
because yeah, it'll never make the air.

Speaker 2 (03:44):
I don't let it.

Speaker 3 (03:46):
You can't don't let it. But yeah, we will be
on semens. So hope we see you guys out there.
So anyway, back to white noise, I told you guys
that we had planned on possibly tubbing the car. I've
decided to go ahead move forward with that. And there's
reason why. I want the car to have a certain
stance and a certain look. Nathaniel and Cameron want the
car to have a certain look and stance to it,
and we kind of want it down in the weeds.

(04:07):
We want it low, and the only way that's gonna
happen is to tub that car. And on top of that,
I may have to do a little modifications to the
front wheels as well to make that work. So the
car gna sit as low as I want to, but
I want it to have a nice, mean stance to it,
and the only way that's going to accomplish is to
do some metal work. I don't have the metal work stuff.
I don't do it. I have a little bit of knowledge,
I've done some metal work in the past, but I

(04:28):
don't have all the equipment to do it, and I
think I told you guys before, I don't desire to
own any of it because I don't want to store it.
So it's gonna have to go to somebody and they're
gonna have to do it. I've reached out a couple
different people, think of a zeroed in on who's going
to do it here in the area. I'll let you
guys know how that works out and what we decide
on it. But yeah, so that's gonna be the first thing.
Second thing, I was going to leave the motor alone

(04:49):
because the motor was pretty wicket. It's in the car.
It's nice little set up. It's nothing like super duper
insanely fast, but it's got a nice motor. It was
set up for drag racing stuff, and it's more than
probably really what we need.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
We're working on the letter now, we are.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
Yeah, your brother, I've been talking about it. So we're
gonna do probably something in the motor. I don't know,
you know, I'm it's going to put a turbo kid
on it. I don't know, but we'll see what ends
up happening. Which way we go. It really depends on
dollar and cents for the car because now we're gonna
get up in the value of the car. So you know,
originally we picked this thing up. I picked up as

(05:22):
a good price. We're gonna throw what I say is
a little money at it and make it a nice driver,
fun play toy. But if I start doing more of
this stuff to it, now we're talking about putting real
money into the car. I mean, let alone, just the
wheels alone for the car are probably almost ten grand.
So you know, now it's got some money and wheels
in it. And now if you're gonna tub it's got
all that metal work done to it, and that's gonna

(05:43):
be more money. And now we're gonna play with the motor,
and that's gonna be more money. Before you know it,
my little simple, twenty five thousand dollars car that was
gonna make a play toy be somewhere probably in the
sixty to seventy range by every time everything's said and done, so.

Speaker 4 (05:54):
Still be a play toy.

Speaker 3 (05:55):
Yeah, a play though, But yeah, you guys know how
this works. You guys have done this bunch of times
for people build car. I can never leave well enough alone.
I know you guys can't either, because we talk about
it all the time. When I run you guys at
car shows, it's I don't know. It starts off something simple.
It was good like said, it's gonna be a very
simple project, a very simple, low, low budget build car
that is still going back into the y. Yeah, so

(06:16):
our our our truck is headed. So if you guys
that know Old Blue is sitting out in front of
the barn, uh waiting its turn, it is going in.
It may not go exactly next. So yes, you guys
can send me the messages and say debut light. There's
a couple things I think. I I all right, So
the bad Am is I told you guys, parts came

(06:37):
in which T had time to throw the parts on
it put it back on wheels. But it is ready
to be put back on wheels as long as everything works.
I think I want to spray the firewall on it
to match the paint before I dropped the motor and it.
I wasn't originally going to do that.

Speaker 2 (06:47):
I know we talked about.

Speaker 3 (06:48):
I was going to leave the firewall on the bad Am,
just the regular color standard black on the back. But
I think I'm gonna go ahead and have it painted.
And since the engine's already out of the way. I
think I'm gonna roll over to the boys, let them
go ahead and sprayed out and do the firewall, and
then then the Chevy truck will go in and get
begin it's work. But yes, it's already on the schedule
of Old Blue is going to go in and get
completely redone. If you guys don't know the story on

(07:10):
Old Blue, it's a truck that was my basically daily
driver that I raised my kids in, and pretty cool
little truck, little five to seven shortbed truck.

Speaker 2 (07:19):
We learn that.

Speaker 3 (07:20):
I tell them how to drive truck. Everything I sold it.
We managed to get the truck back. We have it,
and I've one to do something cool to it. That's
another thing that's probably going to sit down on the
weeds and gonna have a lot of horsepower thrown at
it just to make it a fun truck as well.
I already have a motor built for that truck that
can go into it. I think that's probably what it's
going to get, even though it has a fairly brand
new stock Chevy three pot fifty in it that came

(07:43):
out of the dealership. We put a dealership short block
in it years ago before I sold it, but it
only had I think he's only put three thousand miles
on the truck since we sold it and we got back,
which I.

Speaker 2 (07:52):
Take the short block out, put it on the show.

Speaker 3 (07:54):
I'm gonna take a complete engine out and probably just
going to drop this souped up motor I have sitting there.
We're going to drop in it that is already ready
to probably do a turbo system on it because it
was set up for that originally. So I think that's
probably what we're gonna do it. But keep an eye
off of that because, like I said that, we're excited
to get that one started. I'm really kind of hoping
that it's almost gonna kind of go around the same
horn that we did with this one. I can drop

(08:14):
it in and within about the next month and maybe
have it back within about four or five months. So
that's that is the plan for it. A little bit more.
There's not a lot of bodywork to use it on it,
but it's it was. It was a shop truck, so
it's got its little dents and dings and stuff that
it got being a shop truck. And it's a farm truck,
and then it became a farm truck. So it's it's

(08:35):
definitely seen. It's it's it's trip around the world for sure.
So but I want to bring it back to something
really nice. I want to put a pretty cool page
job on it. Like I said, I want to soup
it up, make a cool, just little it's probably gonna
be it's gonna be our hot rod shop truck for
the Mega garage based you know what I mean. It's
gonna be something we're gonna use it to if we
need to hold parts or whatever and stuff like that,
we can. But I do kind of want to. I
think I want to do something custom in the bed

(08:55):
as well, So I got to figure out how I
make all that work. I wanted to have something nice
in the bed but still make it or still functional,
So I got to figure out how that all comes together.
I got some ideas. Nathaniel and I were arguing about
it earlier this week, but some of the ideas I had.
I still think one of the cool ideas I had
would work. Nathaniel thinks maybe it won't work, and I
think we come to a compromise. But I wanted to.
You guys want what you guys see this idea Nathana
was already giving me the mug face over there. You

(09:16):
guys can't see them off camera. I thought it'd be neat. Okay,
So you know trucks have wood wood beds, right, I
like the wood beds, and Cameron loves trucks.

Speaker 4 (09:25):
You just wait then I like them.

Speaker 3 (09:31):
So I like them. I think it's cool. Now, did
our truck come with one? No, our truck's too new.
It wouldn't had a wood bed in it. But I
thought it'd be kind of cool to do something.

Speaker 2 (09:37):
In it, like the whole bed.

Speaker 3 (09:39):
Wood isn't No, no, so no, no, that's no. I
would never do.

Speaker 4 (09:43):
I hate he seed throw some hardware.

Speaker 3 (09:45):
And what I wanted to do was I saw I came,
I don't know, the deep dive looking at weird things online,
and I didn't know you could buy you skateboard decks.
They're already used. Okay, follow me here, give me funny looks.
It's okay. I saw you skateboard decks and they store
the pictures on the back side of them, you know

(10:06):
what I mean. They're kind of scuffed up and stuff,
but they stole the pictures. I thought it'd be neat
to buy, like I don't know, sixty or seven of
them and cut them down and make wood planks out
of them, and then it'd be just different skateboard decks
for the wood planks make up the bet of the truck.
I just thought that'd be kind of meat.

Speaker 2 (10:23):
It would be cool, but we'd have to throw in
like some used ones from like the pro skaters, like Turn.

Speaker 3 (10:31):
It was like, you know, it was gonna be all
like name brand, like high end name brand boards that
are used they have the pictures on the back of
that as what I was thinking, and I was gonna
send them out to have the boards put to, you know,
the decks put together, make planks, make the wood planks
out to use it for the bet. I thought it'd
be kind of different and neat. Nathaniel kind of went, uh,

(10:51):
I don't know which I get it because I've never
seen it done. And maybe if I I'm sure, it's
gonna would cost some money to have those planks made,
and then what happens if you don't like it? Stuff
like that, So then we can.

Speaker 4 (11:01):
Define a cool idea and I will do that.

Speaker 3 (11:03):
I you know, I think it'd be a cool idea.
And then Nathaniel and I were like, what if we
take the boards and we have a picture like burnt
into the wood, and then when you slide the boards
and it makes the picture in the bed, maybe that too,
I don't know, like we're gonna comp with something. I
don't know. Camera doesn't like that either.

Speaker 2 (11:19):
He's like, that's cool, that's cool too, But I would
I mean the used boards I do think is cool,
but I think it would be cool as well as
like with the picture like Nate recommended, and then you
also threw in some boards like used boards, like out
of the pro competition stuff.

Speaker 3 (11:36):
All the boards would be I don't think you say
what right?

Speaker 4 (11:39):
I think boards?

Speaker 3 (11:40):
You think I'm gonna use.

Speaker 2 (11:41):
Like I'm talking about, like like what's that one competition called?
I don't I don't think that means yeah, X games,
Like it'd be cool if you got like some want
to find that many games pro people and then.

Speaker 3 (11:55):
Tons of boards are used boards. They come in, they're blanks.
They just stay there stacked with pictures on them that
we use them and donat or they get your idea.

Speaker 5 (12:03):
But you're going to ruin the boards anyways when you
come down and make planks out of them. So you're
not like you could say, oh, this was owned by
so and so, But I mean what you're gonna pay
for it and you're just gonna, you know, kind of
damage it.

Speaker 2 (12:13):
The bed floor used used? Are you going to make
like the tail gate?

Speaker 3 (12:19):
No?

Speaker 4 (12:19):
No, no, no no.

Speaker 3 (12:20):
I don't want a wooden tailgate. I wanted to be
a truck complete wood. But just so we're all clear,
I don't like when you take the bed off a
truck and replace it with like a planked bed would bed.
I don't understand that. Yeah, I never understand. I talk
about they take the whole bed of the truck off,
not just tail gate, and they made a whole wooden bed.
I just always I see it done a lot of trucks.
I know people think it's just like if it's your

(12:41):
stock's let me be your stock. It's not my style.

Speaker 2 (12:43):
And then my question will also would be would be like,
if you're going to put use the wood decks, are
you also going to put the metal trim through the middle.

Speaker 3 (12:51):
Or you have to okay, because that's the way it
might look. I know that's want to be something different.
I will call it something maybe I won't do what you're.

Speaker 5 (12:58):
As like's covered with in and do like a resin
floor type of deal. What do you mean like you're
talking about like are you talking about just like like
between each and you're gonna do a metal t if
you know, if.

Speaker 3 (13:08):
I thought so. I one of the things I thought
would be kind of different was if I h you've
seen resin boards where they do like the wood and
they pour the raisin and they it's clear you could
take a bunch of Chevy trucks and put them in
the resin and then resing them in so you're looking
down it's like a landscape and you're looking at it
like trucks in It would be something different to different ideas.

(13:28):
I mean, I mean, I don't know what I'm gonna do.
All I know is we're gonna do something. I know
that the truck has to be has to be cut
up for me to get a little lower down as
low as I want the truck decks.

Speaker 6 (13:40):
There's a lot of techs are like with the little
wheels and stuff, you know, and put them in there.

Speaker 2 (13:45):
That would be cool.

Speaker 3 (13:47):
Just the truck is it's cameracross the sea. Ten it's
it's it's a ninety four. I mean, it's it's it's
it's an obs. But I understand what he said this
last show cars. No, No, it's you know so. But
I wanted something that kind of threw homage to early nines,

(14:07):
late eighties, early nineties something. So I was trying to
think about what to do. I mean, if anything, you
could just take the boards and just you know, do
paint across all the different boards and then go ahead
and seal it up and just be splashed paint across
all the boards.

Speaker 2 (14:18):
That would be you also, because you do like doing art,
I do, that would.

Speaker 3 (14:23):
Be Yeah, that would be something would probably look cool
if it was done in the right blues and stuff
like that. Because the truck's blue. It'll be kind of
cool for the Florida you.

Speaker 4 (14:31):
Have to carry it.

Speaker 2 (14:32):
Thought about you wanted itself. I know we were talking
about we could probably redo that bed, but have you
thought about just getting a complete new bed?

Speaker 3 (14:41):
And no, I think it is I think I did.
You could just come with the idea just literally right.
I think what if I did that and then we
carried it into the fenders inside the truck and all
the fenders were done the same way like the inner fender.

Speaker 5 (14:53):
Well, right, well, do the same thing. But I was like,
I know you want to go show car style. You
know I'm saying this be more like artistic style.

Speaker 3 (15:00):
I would definitely show car stop. I had to show
it to you, guys, we might have come up with
the idea. Hold on, I gotta course of break win.
Come back you guys. I got a little more for you.

Speaker 1 (18:15):
Welcome back to Let's Talk Cars Radio. You're Automotive specialist.
Now back to your host, Dave Polach.

Speaker 3 (18:26):
Welcome back, guys. I don't even know what that was.
During the commercial break, you had to listen to it.
There was Cara Cameron isms. That's what I'm gonna call him,
Camera Cameron isms. He was giving us his wise advice. No,
if you're on a turtle. If you guys didn't catch

(18:47):
that last segment. I think we came up. We might
call it an idea of what we're gonna do with blue.
I think we're gonna check that out and see what
we think of that idea. I think had like three
more months to the Yeah, it would be pretty good.
What do you think I think it would be.

Speaker 5 (19:05):
A good idea, Like you said, like a paint splatter,
would you know theme you just you know, throw it
on some wood planks and you know, metal frame, right.

Speaker 2 (19:12):
I think I think my idea was doing the resin
thing is cool too, you know, taking like tech decks.
I said, you know, since it's our family cards like taking,
because we grew up with if you're going to do
the skateboards, it would be cool to do the tech
deck wheels and like little like things.

Speaker 6 (19:29):
I say, skateboard idea, Okay, Well, still.

Speaker 2 (19:33):
Put in stuff in the resin, you know, like from
our childlhood, and.

Speaker 3 (19:37):
I think if we take it because late eighties early nineties,
it was a lot of splash paint design and stuff
like that was on a lot of different things. It
was on shirts, all kinds stuff I took. If you
took that and incorporated that in the truck. I think
would actually look pretty good if it was done on
the right colors and stuff, and that we kind of
and it wouldn't be that hard to pull off.

Speaker 4 (19:53):
I mean I also thought, like a sticker bomb a picture.

Speaker 3 (19:55):
Let's see that's a skateboard style.

Speaker 2 (19:57):
That's a skateboard style.

Speaker 6 (19:58):
Yeah, okay, yeah, so yeah, that would be that would
be technically what you were talking.

Speaker 3 (20:02):
Splash paint ideas. So it comes up like blues, greens,
stuff like that. See what I come up with Cameron's
using his generators ai generator full up ideas.

Speaker 5 (20:10):
I mean, I even think like a sticker bomb would
kind of look kind of cool because it's close to like,
you know, a paint.

Speaker 3 (20:15):
You're right, yeah, if but you would have to reson
it afterwards.

Speaker 4 (20:19):
Well, I mean you're reson at all anyway.

Speaker 3 (20:21):
Resident nothing, but yeah, you would have to find the
right stickers from.

Speaker 2 (20:25):
That era said blue green, what other color? Red?

Speaker 3 (20:28):
You throw a little gold in there, a little yellow
on there. I don't know, see see what it comes
up with something like that. But no, I mean that
would work, sicker muhamed if you had the right stickers
from the right air. But that would that would kind
of work too. I don't know. Like, so we'll come
up with the idea, we'll come I don't know, Look
two weeks from now, we may come up with a
completely different idea. That's just the way we work. We'll
sit there and talk things through before we know what.

(20:49):
The idea of morphs into different things. Because at one
point in Tom I thought that truck would look cool
it was done up in Notre Dame colors because of
the blue it is. The blue is like almost like
the Notre Dame blue. And I was like, man, you
do it up in the door door Dame clothes that
kind of with gold and blue stuff like that. It'd
be really hot in that truck too. And we've kind
of leaned a little bit away from that. So I
don't know. Anyway, new topic. You guys know that tuning,

(21:12):
doing a lot of tuning is to cars is pretty risky.
Not really, Well, yeah it is, but that's not where
I was going at first. It's it's just part of
the new way. If you have anything that has a
computer or it needs to be tuned and you're messing
around with it, it's just the new way of doing things, right,
especially if you have what two thousand and nine and up.

(21:33):
I mean, you could be probably a little older than that.
But I'm thinking about when I start seeing people really
start messing with tunes and stuff on cars, and it
takes something and knows what they're doing. I can do
small tunes on cars. That's as far as my knowledge goes.
You want to start getting into like crazy stuff, nep
can't do it, and it's just not my cup of tea.
I have friends that do do it, and you know
how to do it, and I'll take it to them

(21:53):
because that's what they do. I mean, I got a
friend that writes complete programs, you know, for your car.
You'll write a whole program for you and it'll run
and run great. And then even he's been limited on
what he does and he wanted to go bigger and better,
and he sends it to the next guy. He knows
it does more than he you know, knows more than
he does. But one of the things we've run into,
you know, within the last couple of years, or cars
being locked, there's not a whole lot of stuff you

(22:15):
could do. There wasn't a lot of technology. It seems
like we're starting to move past that a little bit.
I saw that this week. They were talking about that.
Now Nates Mustang that's locked has been you know, it
can be jail break. Now you can break it, and
they're starting to play around with it, and so far,
I mean they've I mean literally they just peak Pandora's
box open a little bit, and they've already managed to
find thirty extra horsepower and twenty pounds more torquing it

(22:38):
just opening the boxes a little bit.

Speaker 4 (22:40):
There's pretty decent.

Speaker 3 (22:41):
Well, but I mean think about it, most bolt on
things that you buy nowadays, as about all you're getting
out of a you know, out of bolton thing you
spend what twelve thirteen hundred bucks for, and that's all
right horsepower?

Speaker 2 (22:51):
Think about it right when they start actually unlocking it,
and then they start creating the tunes for where you
can start doing boltons to it, you know, and in
like stage two, stage three parts, you're probably going to
get some horses out of that thing.

Speaker 3 (23:05):
I mean, well, I told you, you know, you guys
hear me talk about it all the time. It's com
the show the guy that builds the Mustangs out of
Ohio at the dealership at a good price, at a
great price. I mean that guy. They've been playing around
some things and making some crazy and horsepower numbers out
of these cars, so I know they must have pretty
much already figured out how to do the tunes on

(23:25):
it and stuff. But I mean, eleven hundred horsepower, you
know what I mean on a on a Mustang that
you buy from the dealership and they're already give it
to you out the door with that. I mean, that's well,
they're in the same numbers, you know. I saw something
the other day that guy was talking about the Mustang
with the right setup and the right parts, and he
didn't really go into what they were. He's like, you know,
you realize these these things are capable of like fifteen

(23:45):
hundred horsepower really easily. And I'm like, oh, that's you know,
do you really want to be right right?

Speaker 4 (23:52):
Do you know?

Speaker 3 (23:53):
Okay? So I know I got a lot of Dodge
you know, fans listening to show and stuff like that,
But did you guys know what was it? The is
it the arse? Are someone's gonna be the last Dodge
Viper that they made? I think that's it's an RC
something whatever it was, it was the last one. Do
you know that thing when you start throwing like twin
turbos that you know what the horsepower rating is on
that car if you put like a twin turbo kid

(24:14):
on it, take a guess. We're talking this is a
street car.

Speaker 4 (24:17):
I was guessing like twelve hundred maybe can what's your guess?

Speaker 2 (24:21):
Well, from like once you start putting it on.

Speaker 3 (24:24):
Yeah, you put like twin turbo on a Viper on
the the last Viper they made, and they do they do.
That's what my guess would be. They're getting like three
thousand horsepower out of those cars.

Speaker 4 (24:36):
You're never getting that.

Speaker 2 (24:36):
It was a fifth generation v X. I.

Speaker 3 (24:40):
Yeah, but it's R it's got like an r C something.
I'm not. I'm not s RT No, it's not. It's
I'm not the big Viper guy. I don't. I mean,
I'll be the first one. My my Viper knowledge is
very small, guys. But I remember it. It was the
Viper R. I want to say it was r CR,
but isn't that what that's roups racings or something like that.
But I want to say it's our something. It's it's

(25:01):
it's got it. It's got an R and I can't remember.
Somebody's gonna send me the message and tell me I
can't for life ACR. Maybe that's what it is you're
talking about that.

Speaker 2 (25:08):
ACR trims and the GtC trims.

Speaker 3 (25:10):
Maybe that's say you guys, tell me if I'm wrong.
But like I said, I saw, like I saw this
whole thing right up about it. And they're like, man,
you throw twin turbo kids in the right two and
stuff like that, and these guys have got like three
thousand horsepower all these cars. Like I said, not that
you're probably ever gonna put that to the street, all right,
but how cool is it?

Speaker 4 (25:25):
I mean, how long does that last?

Speaker 7 (25:26):
For?

Speaker 2 (25:27):
Who cares?

Speaker 3 (25:28):
How many?

Speaker 4 (25:28):
How many passes are you getting with.

Speaker 3 (25:29):
That kind of money into a viper? First of all,
it's a viper. Yeah, did you put that kind of
money a viper? Do you really care? I mean it's
like so when we went to when we went to
Seama that year, that guy had that twin turbo kit,
huge turbos. One of the things were like seventy eight
millimeters turbos or something like that hook to a laborghini.
Remember that one that happened? I mean there was I
think we figured it. We sat and we looked at

(25:50):
the car, itself probably had almost one hundred and fifty
two hundred thousand dollars worth of mods to it, and
we hadn't bought the car yet. I mean, so do
you you know that guy didn't care? I mean, but
then we sat there and we looked at it and
we were like, man, you know, you're this thing's never
going to make traction. There's no way it's remember the conversations.
But I was like, but how cool did it look?
I mean, he had them the turbos were all I

(26:13):
want to say that they had like that copper color
to them. They were they were, they were you know,
I don't know what they did to them. I would
almost want to say they put him like, you know,
in a machine or something like that and and tumbled
them into different colors or whatever, and it got used
a chmical reaction. But they all looked like they were
like bright polished copper, like almost like almost like not

(26:35):
say copper or brass whatever. So and I remember it,
but they did that as the whole trim through the
motor and it was really cool. But I mean, looking
at it, you had respected and then was it was it?
Last year we saw the guy. Remember the guy that
had the blower and it was all scribed metal, scribed
with design and I feel like that one. I mean
that was probably twenty thirty thousand dollars worth of work

(26:56):
just done in that scribing that on that on the engine.
But it was cool. Well it was a piece of
it looked like a piece of jewelry sitting inside the car,
and that's what stood out to me. I got a
picture of it. I'll post at some point if you
guys remember I posted it when we saw it. I
saw a picture of it. I think it stood in
my phone just neat and then I saw that I
saw that car at Sema and then I saw it
pop up. I don't want to see it pop up
with a good Guy show too. Two different shows that

(27:16):
popped up that we saw it at. But I remember
the car. And then I saw like six months later,
I saw a snapchat or something like that that or
TikTok what videos or whatever they are, and it was
that car and it was driving down the street I
think in like California or something like that, and I
instantly remembered the car because for what it was, it

(27:37):
was all gold plated, it was scribed metal and designs
like that just looked like a big piece of joey
and it was a neat car. So I think what
I'm thinking about building things, I start thinking about carrying that.
What's going to be cool to carry into a car,
you know what I mean. So when people start talking
about doing crazy things to Mustangs and all the tuning
in them and adding all these parts, like now that
you jail break, like I'm using the Mustang as the example,

(28:01):
think about the possibilities. Now you can really start to
tune that thing towards superchargers, you can really parts on
it and stuff like that. It can now be tuned
to those parts. And everybody's like, well, I know, guy,
it's got a twenty twenty four. He's got twin turbo
kid on it. Okay, cool, But more time I'm not
using the full talk about actually doing full capability on
it and doing it all right, you know, I mean,

(28:22):
and doing it the way it should be. Now you
can really start to play with things and now down
that in and that's going to be really crazy because
you gotta remember, we've gone through this several times on
cars where you couldn't do anything with them, and then
once they finally you could you just saw these crazy
numbers started to come out, and I think that's probably
what you're going to run into with this. So I'm
excited for people to own one and sky For Nathaniel,

(28:42):
if you'll ever get around to, you know, doing something
to his we can just gotta get wheels and tires on.
I mean that'd be like the biggest hurdle for him
right this second. Let's put some wheels and tires. And
I joke him all the time he does, I'm like, uh,
your mustling is really cool. It wasn't for a stock musting,
So those are not the words I chose and I
gave when I said it to him.

Speaker 2 (29:01):
Send your sponsorships to Let's Talk Cars Radio.

Speaker 3 (29:06):
If you're listening and you want to set a cool
set of wheels and tires and the thanel for him
to try out and do a product review on it.
I'm sure he'd appreciate it, because, uh, if not, he'll
find some way to wheel them take care of him.

Speaker 4 (29:20):
But I never curved the wheel before.

Speaker 3 (29:21):
He said he sent me a picture of a set
that looks really nice on his car, and I don't
know who they're made by, but they are. I forget yeah,
they are. They are. They're hot. If any if anybody's
putting anything on his car, you should definitely do that
set up on the car because it looks good and
it's the right I think the picture he sent me
the same color kiss car is with those wheels on it,
so it actually pairs up. So I don't know, maybe
in the future and daniell finally getround putting set of

(29:43):
wheels on it, and then he doesn't like to take
it right now the car shows because like, well, damn,
dad is stock. He's like, I haven't really done anything
to it. He's like, I don't know. Why might I
taking a car show. I'm like, I don't know, because
you know you bought your stuff a pretty cool car,
and you know you should be enjoying it. I shall
be enjoyed it more if we put wheels on it.
He'll enjoys more. You guys to us what you think,
Like I said, if you got to set a wheels,
you know you want to send our away. You guys
know where to find us. Let me take quick course
of break. When I go back, I got more for

listen to the show, you've heard me talk about my
dream house. It has been a great experience buying land,
building my house, even selling my old house. One thing
I didn't tell you about was the real estate agent
that I used.

Speaker 8 (31:55):
I used Bobbartem from the Perfect House Team in the
real Estate Group.

has been there for us from beginning to end and
treated us just like family.

I'm telling you you've heard me talk about this because
it has been one of the truly best experiences that
I've had. If I did not choose Bob, I don't
think that I would have all the best things to
say about building this house. So if you're looking to
buy or sell a home, definitely give Bob a call
at the Perfect House Team in the real Estate Room.

(33:41):
You're automotive specialist. Now back to your host Dave Pilach.

Speaker 3 (33:49):
Hey, guys, welcome back So here's one for you. Did
you guys see the article in the time capsule. I've
seen a lot of artills on timecast time capsule. A
couple of weeks ago, I got, I got, we ran
out of time to talk about on one of the
shows and stuff, but it popped back up a conversation
again this week. So if you guys didn't see, there
was a time capsule that it's in Sea Sea where Nebraska,

(34:10):
I believe, is what the article was that was sent
to me. And they had made a time a large
time capsule where they put a Vega Chevy Vega in
the time capsule. I think, I mean they put a
they put a car in it. It had a Kavasaki
motorcycle in it, and I guess then they packed the

(34:31):
car with stuff from that air inside of it.

Speaker 2 (34:33):
Not to do it from your story, but that's just
like that one time capsule when they bagged up that
whole time capsule and then they opened it up and
the car was completely ruined.

Speaker 3 (34:43):
So hold on, and what he's talking about is miss Belvedere,
I believe his name of the car, and that's where
they put the Belvedere in it, and they sold raffle
tickets to somebody to win that car, and they sold
all those raffle tickets way back then when they put
the car on what in the fifty like nineteen fifty
eight or whatever it was, when they put the car
on the time capsule yep, and then what was it

(35:04):
ten years ago or whatever, they decided to open the
time capsule and the everybody who I guess had a
ticket to go in the car or whatever came and
the car was completely destroyed. Now that car is being restored.
Last I saw, Yeah, they're restoring that car.

Speaker 2 (35:17):
Yeah, And they opened up the time capsule and it
was coming.

Speaker 3 (35:20):
You've never seen if you've never seen pictures of it.
You want to talk about something going horribly wrong for
like a giveaway slash, I mean, great, idea, awesome, I
think great.

Speaker 4 (35:31):
Great.

Speaker 3 (35:32):
It was the time capsule filled with water, so the
car basically sat submerged in water for all those years.

Speaker 2 (35:38):
Yeah, they even put plastic around it.

Speaker 3 (35:39):
They did it.

Speaker 2 (35:42):
Apparently it was really bad, bad apparent.

Speaker 3 (35:44):
Apparently this one didn't have that problem. Really Apparently this one,
this stuff was salvageable, which is kind of cool. But
I got to think. I was like, hey, is there
any more that we don't know about? Number is my
first question, which I have a feeling there is. This
niece cannot be the only two cars you're ever put
in a time capsule. Start digging it that we've only
we've heard about undiscovered. Well, no, I mean were discovered.

(36:05):
The US is a big area. You just don't you
know what I mean, Like I grew I okay, So
going back, I grew up in some smaller towns, guys,
where we were cut off from like most civilizations.

Speaker 4 (36:16):
We just digs on the ground.

Speaker 3 (36:20):
We were cut off from like mainstream news. Like we
didn't have these things, right, I mean, we didn't have
cell phones, and we didn't you know, you didn't have
the newspapers. Your news, like your news was small town
gossip and then whatever the newspaper in your area showed
and people talked about the weather, you know. And I
tell you, guys this, go look up the tag. When

(36:42):
I was a very small kid, I grew up in
uh North Aurora, Aurora area. So and they were small towns,
I mean, and that that was just the news. When
was the last time you guys seen a newspaper? Nobody
was right, nobody was talking about like what we talked
about news now because we didn't have that, so the
news was small. So I very much believe that there's
more time capsules out there with more cars in it

(37:04):
that just they never made it mainstream news, you know.
I mean, it still has it because no one's opened
it up yet or whatever it is. You mean. I
I just believe that'd be the case. But like I said,
I got to think, and like, if we're to do
a time capsule, now, what do you think, like car
related stuff whatever? I mean, it has a lot of
stuff in it. They put like your favorite albums, all
that kind of stuff all went it kind of in
there in the time castle. But what would be the
car to put in it? Now? Like the car that.

Speaker 2 (37:26):
New car or or car that way.

Speaker 3 (37:28):
Okay, so let's just say you decided, okay, this year
we're going to start a time capsule, right, what car
do you take now right now and put in the
time capsule?

Speaker 5 (37:36):
And maybe more like a common car, I mean, because
you're now depending like a supercar and.

Speaker 3 (37:40):
You're not gonna put supercar in it. But maybe if
you've decided to do a muscle car, just America, because
you're in America. We're not talking about supercars. Would you
put a muscle car in it? Or would you take
it just a cool car? I don't think anybody.

Speaker 4 (37:49):
I don't think anybody's like.

Speaker 3 (37:50):
Okay, ivoluntary to give their muscle car away to be there.
First of all, they didn't dealerships skate these cars up. Okay,
I got all those cars went out, they were supplied
by We were probably like whoever was doing it bought
it and then put it in there.

Speaker 2 (38:02):
I think we would probably take the Dodge Demon and
put it in there.

Speaker 3 (38:05):
Okay. So I got to think about this, and I
don't completely disagree with you. I thought, and I thought
it probably not being a musting. But I was getting
ready to say, I say, cool car. There's not a
lot of cars out there that I think are cool's.
Let's you know, like I look at cars and I'm sorry, guys,
cars to me nowadays are just kind of black. I
mean they start like you go back and you look

(38:25):
at cars from the sixties and the seventies, even though
they weren't like the muscle car of that, they're cool
for their they were still cool for they were they
were you know what I mean? Now, I kind of
look at cars and I just go it was like
one of those things, right, It's like you go to
stop light and everything looks the same.

Speaker 2 (38:41):
If we were talking about like basic basic cars, you know,
there'd be two cars that would probably put in the
time caps would be from now from now? Okay, right,
I probably you guys are gonna jerk me for this.
I'd probably put a Toyota camera in there, you know, it.

Speaker 3 (38:53):
Would make sense to be a certain degree. And I
thought about that the second.

Speaker 2 (38:56):
Cars where you guys are gonna jerk me. I put
a niss On Ultima and everybody's like.

Speaker 3 (39:00):
What everybody has one?

Speaker 2 (39:01):
Everybody?

Speaker 3 (39:02):
Everybody makes sense because everybody had one.

Speaker 2 (39:05):
I kind of want to see, like from what what
our basic car would be in like twenty years, you know,
watch it be like a super.

Speaker 3 (39:14):
Everybody question now right, I hope this question now shortly
into a small little uh you know, answer blog thing
and believe it or do you can you this probably
shouldn't shock anybody. H camer was mentioned, but it was
nothing like the number one pick. Do you know what
the number one pick was?

Speaker 2 (39:31):
Kia?

Speaker 4 (39:32):
Nope, no, no, it wasn't k number one pick.

Speaker 3 (39:35):
The number one pick for a car. What do you
think it was.

Speaker 4 (39:39):
Trying to blame how this should.

Speaker 3 (39:41):
Be easy because it's it's a it's a i'll give you,
I'll give you an it's a hate it car.

Speaker 2 (39:49):
Ultimately, those people really hate this, can Santa Fe Nope,
I'm gonna get so much hate mail because there's anything like, Man,
I want to.

Speaker 4 (39:59):
Let you have the hook on it, because I'm trying
to blank.

Speaker 3 (40:01):
Of people said put a Tesla in there. Really yeah, yeah,
they like put a Tesla in it because it covers
current things in the news, right right. It is a
car of this error. So it had a little bit
of everything. It had controversy, it had a car from
the era it had. It kind of made sense. It
wouldn't matter. I mean, look, look what everything that's going

(40:22):
on with Tesla. Look everything that's going on with with
Elon Mussels, everything everything. So it makes sense to you
when I just put like just regular, just one of
the cars. It ain't got to be their sports car
or anything like that. Just put one of the cars,
and it made sense to me. The camera made sense
to me because camri Bean so long number the number
one car and STFF like that. That made sense huh.

Speaker 2 (40:41):
Would the battery even last?

Speaker 3 (40:43):
Well, I don't think that's the point though.

Speaker 4 (40:44):
It'd be like a show a show piece.

Speaker 3 (40:46):
Yeah, it would be. I mean, what do you think, Yeah.

Speaker 5 (40:48):
I mean Tesla, Like I understand the point on it.
I don't think that's probably the best car to you know,
put as a time capsule, right, I mean, I'm trying
to think of though it does like like you said,
controversy in the news, you know, the future upgrades that
probably contact we are.

Speaker 3 (41:03):
Now to where we could be in twenty three forty
years now.

Speaker 5 (41:05):
I still think that electric cars are still so new
that it doesn't you know. I guess you're thinking like
just like right like this year per se like cars rise.
But I was saying something like more like like you
said a little more you know, loved upon that you know,
really made market.

Speaker 2 (41:20):
You do kind of just say something though like that
wouldn't make it make sense. It is kind of still
new to us. You know, it's not new, but it.

Speaker 3 (41:29):
Is still even technology side, here's where we are with
what is current technology, that's where we are. That made
sense in that That's.

Speaker 2 (41:36):
Why I would be like, so it is kind of
new still because people are still kind of getting people
are used to it, but they're still kind of sense.

Speaker 3 (41:42):
So it's like you want to pick a loved car, right.
I can't think of any car that's a just overly
loved car right this second. I mean, if you guys can,
please let me know if I'm missing it and I
can't think of it. I cannot think of one car
out there everybody goes Man where everybody goes. I love
that car. I love that car. Now you could have
I'm y'all are gonna steal last time I talked about this.

(42:03):
I got the messages. But if it was the right error,
I would say, you put the Caprice in there, because
the Caprice, I'm sorry. Caprice was a loved card. I mean,
it was used for so many different things. It just
was everybody loved it. I'll give you another one that
you guys cannot argue with me. If we went back
to like nineteen eighty seven, you put a Buick century
in there.

Speaker 4 (42:22):
Century people make sense. People make sense.

Speaker 3 (42:24):
Everybody everybody's mom, grandma, everybody had a Buick century. It
seemed like rather it was the wagon or the sedan.
Somebody had a buick century. You don't see them anymore.
I saw one two months ago or something like that.
I was like a bug century someone still got one.

Speaker 2 (42:38):
But yeah, it was a.

Speaker 3 (42:42):
I mean, you don't see where you're going. But if
you're gonna do that, you might as well just go ahead.
Put a Honda cord. And if you're put in a
Honda cord, you put a camera. It's almost right, I mean,
that's what you're doing. I mean, I get it. I
don't know. I almost got to agree and say the
Tesla was the best choice to put in there, just
for the reasons, like I said, because of technology, technology,
the controversy over the car, the technology side of showing

(43:05):
technology there. I mean, I think, I know you are
going to sell me hate. It happens every time I.

Speaker 4 (43:10):
Think you get away with trucks to though, even.

Speaker 3 (43:12):
Like in there, Okay, sure, I started to wait for
the truck. I stayed away from the trucks for a reason.

Speaker 2 (43:19):
I know, Elon, I'll send them a message message, we
can put it, we'll.

Speaker 5 (43:22):
Get together, we'll have it, but we'll do technically, definitely,
he's already stay one in the space.

Speaker 3 (43:26):
So that was the same thing, right.

Speaker 4 (43:28):
The time cast is already flowing around.

Speaker 2 (43:29):
Technically that is a time cap. So I mean, whatever
happened to.

Speaker 3 (43:32):
That aud they're flying around to look up.

Speaker 4 (43:37):
It's like they're supposed to make its way back as
some maybe I don't know.

Speaker 6 (43:44):
I don't think that's the way that works unless it
tries to come back and that and I love Tesla. Okay,
so I think we're still three to show up, just
in case you were. I know you're real busy right now.

Speaker 3 (43:53):
But you know, just in case you find a little
free time and you can box those things up and
send them to us. We are still waiting. They're supposed
to show up and they just did not know what happened.
They got lost in the.

Speaker 4 (44:01):
Mail, still off for delivery.

Speaker 3 (44:04):

(47:43):
back to Let's Talk Cars Radio. You're automotive specialist. Now
back to your host, Dave Polach.

Speaker 3 (47:53):
Hey, guys, So I've told you guys over and over
again about my uh, deep deep dark sea. It's of
scrolling marketplace late at night, your obsession. It was like
even your obsession, it's a dangerous place. I'm not gonna lie.
It is a very dangerous place if you are a
car guy. I've told you guys to go scrolling. Definitely

(48:15):
don't scroll late at night.

Speaker 2 (48:17):
What's the nic.

Speaker 3 (48:20):
It's funny? Keep here, like, what are you looking at there,
I'm like, sh you see nothing. But I did scroll
across and I'll be wanting to admit somebody led me
in the right direction and said, hey, you need to
go check this out. There is a Ferrari F forty
on marketplace for sale right now. It's not a real one,
not a kick car, five million dollar one, like five

(48:42):
million dollars. It's gonna be like the asking. It's an
amazing price, right I'm sign ups the name too.

Speaker 5 (48:50):
There was a gentleman who did something recently, not recently,
but a couple of years back where he got a
loan and he made a business proposition where.

Speaker 4 (48:58):
He like rented it out or you know, he like
did like side of.

Speaker 3 (49:02):
The car or marketplace.

Speaker 5 (49:03):
No, the car, Like he he bought like a like
a couple of million dollar car, and then he used
as a business proposition and he like rented out for
shows or you know, like he took it to events
and you know, and he kind of recouped his money there.

Speaker 4 (49:14):
I don't know how well he did on it.

Speaker 3 (49:15):
I have a friend that I will leave nameless because
I think he wants to be left nameless because he
owns a business and he has luxury cars.

Speaker 5 (49:24):
He's got about that years ago, about like only like
an exotic car dealership.

Speaker 3 (49:30):
Now he's given me the the ins and outs of
doing it. Now he doesn't. He no longer rents where
you can go and you can drive him and all
that kind of stuff.

Speaker 4 (49:41):
Right, he has like an individual.

Speaker 3 (49:42):
Yeah, he's just he's doing that very bad. Yeah. They
did work out for him very well in that manner.
So he started with that. He had some nice he
had Aberghini at Ara. I think he had tw Laborghinis
in a Ferrari. He had a lot of nice vets
and stuff like that that we had nice stuff to
and they weren't stock, they were nice, but he had
a lot of I think at one point in time

(50:04):
he had a Brigotti. I don't think that lasts very long.
But he was renting you could run them, and he
ran them for big money. I guess depends on what
you call big money. But you know it was right,
and he was able to recoup some of his money
for purchasing and stuff like that. But then the cars
start to get a little tore up because people everybody
who wants to drive a Laborghini probably shouldn't be really

(50:26):
honest with you, guys, and I have been honest about
it with you guys. I have had the luxury of
driving a lot of really nice exotic cars. I've done supercars,
I've done hypercar. You know, I've been had the chance
behind the wheel of some really nice stuff in my life,
and I can tell you that I don't think any
of them, particularly are for me to own, if that

(50:47):
makes sense. And I'm a car guy, I think I
told you guys, Kuntash is a very hard car to drive.
I was so ecstitic when I had the opportunity to
drive one. It's not a fun car to drive. It
just isn't. If you, guys, I've ever been behind the
wheel one, you've sat down and drove one. Those who
really have been in one and drove it will one.
Most likely, I'm going to say ninety percent will agree

(51:09):
with me. The other ten percent is just gonna argue
to argue they're not a comfortable car to drive. They
are cool as can be. They are at the top.
You guys know the list of car I would love
to have, and I explained to you a reason why
I won't own one. But I still think they're cool.
But I had this big, huge, I think play in
my head of what it was going to be like,
what it was going to be like, and it's it's
it is a very cool car, and you do feel

(51:31):
like the biggest baller on earth when you're driving it.
I ain't gonna lie, But it's not a fun car
to drive. It's it's it's not a driver's car. It's
worked to drive a Kuontash. There's a lot of work
in Paul to drive that car.

Speaker 4 (51:43):
It's more work.

Speaker 3 (51:44):
Is it's more work. You are paranoid number one when
you drive it because what now? What the prices are
on them? And that was I drove it before the
prices really drove it to what it is now. So
that's the problem. I drove a lot of different Ferraris
in my lifetime. I've never drove an F forty. Yeah,
but I'd love to, but I never have. But I
drove a lot. I drove quite a few tesse rosas,

(52:05):
some benches, and I can't tell you all the different numbers,
but I drove quite a few of the three oh five's,
uh what the three point fifty, the GTB. I've drove
one of those I told you, guys, I worked for
an auction house when I was a very young man,
still in my teens, and got to drive a lot
of those because they were stupid enough to give us
the keys to them and let us drive them to
bring them from where they were stored into the auction

(52:25):
And of course, like I told you, that turned kind
of into racetrack more than anything else. But I like said, so,
there are some cars I've driven, but once I drove them,
I was just like, I don't you know, I don't
think i'd ever want to own this thing.

Speaker 2 (52:36):
Now.

Speaker 3 (52:36):
I did drive the Kuntash as an adult, not as
a kid, so it's not one of those Well you
were a kid, you didn't know what you're doing. Now
I was an adult, and it, like I said, just
wasn't a fun car to drive. I drove a vintage
Ferrari that was one of the coolest things I still
think to this date that I've driven. And I want
to say it was fifties.

Speaker 4 (52:55):
That's cool, and that it was.

Speaker 3 (52:57):
And I can't remember the model. I know you're augan
to ask me what model was. I can tell you
that the shifter was sticking out of the dash and
That's what I thought was the coolest thing. It was
on the floor, it was out of dashing, had actually
shifted up on the dash for to to shift, which
I'd never seen anything like that. Was pretty neat.

Speaker 2 (53:09):
You know, Enterprise in Las Vegas rents exotic cars. Yes,
I didn't know that until Yeah, you weren't part of
the show then. Do you not remember when we took
the show to Shelby in Vegas and got access to
the edition. I handled all the media for that.

Speaker 3 (53:29):
But so, yeah, that was really cool and that did
that happened. We were the first one to get our
hands on that car. No other magazine, TV show, nothing
had that car yet we got were the first ones
that have our hand on that car. And that was
really really cool, but paranoid once again because at that
point time there was only two of them that were
running the guy and they were making the media, starting

(53:50):
to make the media presence, and I had We'll tell you,
I weaseled my way into that deal. I backedworded the
deal like you wouldn't believe through some people I knew
and got access to the car, and it was really
neat and I understand it's just the hurt sedition.

Speaker 2 (54:03):
Because we knew and nobody wanted to say it.

Speaker 3 (54:07):
We knew that the car had been made already and
there was nothing released, and I knew where the cars
were being stored at, so I know there was two
of them that were made, and I knew they were
being stored. Uh. Through some contact and I actually tracked
on the car and then I got permission to get
possession of the car. If you guys never catch those episodes,
go back and look for my camera what episodes. They
were very early parts of the show, but there's pictures
of us floating around with us when we got the car,

(54:28):
a hold of the car in Vegas to play with,
and it was really really cool experience to be part
of that. Like I said, is anything over the top special? No,
But I still remember the first time I started the
car and I was and it just had a It
was really wicked. Now, I think Nathaniel's car is almost
really close to the sound in your stock configuration of

(54:50):
what that was back then, but I think that one
was a little louder, but it sounds very similar because
they've done so much work to your exhausted in your
Guys model, but still very cool experience. I said, So,
my buddy decided that he was going to stop renting
the cars out for drive, and now he rents them
for I want to say a probably a bad example,

(55:13):
but say like a rat video or for them to
deposed for weddings and stuff like that. And he makes
more money doing that. I believe the cars are safer
that way than he does for anything else. He gives
him out for advertising if they want to do commercials,
all kind of stuff they want to fill in the
cars with. That's what he does with the car. And
he says it's just it's more lucrative for him. He
doesn't have to worry about the cars getting torn up.

(55:34):
He's in control of the whole situation from start to go.
A lot of times the cars just dropped off. It's
locked and nobody can even get in the car. So
if the car's just a static display and they use
him astack displays, he makes pretty decent money just let
the car sit there for a weekend as a static
there's a whole value too. But like it's crazy the
money that he tells me that he gets paid for
some of these that car just to sit there, I mean,
which is pretty cool. But he also rents about to movies,

(55:56):
but a lot of times they are static explay too,
because the way the movie route works is if they
want to drive in a car and stuff like that,
then you know there's a chance that something could happen
to the car, and then there's some free agreed pricing.
If something happens in a car, what they're going to
pay for, and that gets a little tricky. He kind
of explained that to me a little bit to me.
But most of the cars he does with that are
not his nice high end cars. They're actually everyday cars.

(56:18):
It's kind of weird the way that works, but uh,
cool business idea.

Speaker 4 (56:21):
I mean they even did that back in the day too.

Speaker 5 (56:22):
They take every day cars they kind of modified a
look like it, you know, they I had a camera.

Speaker 3 (56:27):
And I talked about it years ago. I had an
opportunity to buy a barn full of cars years ago
that were like old fifties and sixties models, and most
of them are in pretty decent shape. Probably really just
need to be washed some of them. If you wanted
to make them look nice, you put a quick painte
ob and stuff like that. But if I would have
been set up at the time like we are now
with the megagarage. That might have been an option because
it was big enough that I could have parked cars

(56:49):
out on the street for a movie lot, and it
would have been the right cars for the right air
out out on the street for that error, and it
probably been some money being made renting those cars for that.
Now the movie industry has changed a little bit, maybe
not so much like it used to be back then.
I mean, back then they're making, you know, over three
hundred movies a year, and now they're making like what
twenty five, I don't know. It's like pretty crazy the
way that works. Not a lot of them A car movies, right, No,

(57:10):
they're just these are cars. There's back They're just street
just for the air. If you were going down like
a if the movie was filmed in the fifties and
sixties and you needed twelve cars to put out like
in parking spots on the street to make to make
the streets scene perfect cars for them, there were nothing special.
There were cars of that era. They were in decent
shape that they weren't torn apart, had all the parts
still hanging on them, and I could have had them
for a really good price by just having place to

(57:30):
put them. Just there was no place to put those cars.

Speaker 4 (57:33):
Left them in the barn, close it up. That's how
that worked.

Speaker 3 (57:36):
They were getting rid of that piece of property and
they just wanted the cars to go. But like I said,
the cars were all complete. They were they weren't really
missing anything. I said, if we were set up the
way we are now with the property and the big
garage and stuff like, that'd be a whole another story.
I'd probably a little more interested in it. But times
go by. But I think it's kind of cool that
you have that set up and there's a lot of
that going on, and marketplace is starting to sell some

(57:59):
weird cars and you start and see some things show up.
I told you guys, I still have a love for
kit cars. Nathaniel not so much. Uh So, I'm constantly
looking to see what kit cars you're out there, because
I truly want a real replica. I would like I
still I would like to have a real replica kuntash,
just so I could play with it out on the
street and not worry about being torn up. And I know,
once again, I know, I just said they're no fun

(58:20):
to drive. But if it's a replica, then you don't
really care. I mean you care, but not nearly as
much of it was the real thing.

Speaker 4 (58:27):
I say, there's a lot more the cooler things to attain.

Speaker 3 (58:30):
There is, but I still like, look at toward you guys.
At some point in time, I'm going to own a
GT forty replica car. It's gonna be. But you know,
they're built like the race car. It's not like a
I don't want one of those cheesy ones. I want
one of the ones that's built like the race car, frame,
has the body over it, stuff like that. Also, like
the the MK was MK three Porscha was the nine
seventeen Porscha that replicas that look like they're racing in

(58:51):
some other countries somewhere. I really like that. By the style,
some of those pop upvery once a while. They're really
hard to get your hands on too, unless you buy
a true full race setup. And I once been that
kind of because I just want to drive on the
street and have fun with it, so I know we'll
see what ends up happening. Like I said, there's go
look at marketplace. It's a very scary place. I highly
suggest you don't do it in the middle of the
night because that's usually when I can't sleep. I'm finding

(59:12):
the next card that I should not buy. But no, guys,
I'm going and get out of here. That's the end
of our show. Hope you guys enjoyed the show. This week.
