Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:22,981 --> 00:00:24,274
Look, we got Grandma's car.
2
00:00:25,817 --> 00:00:28,153
All right, guys,
first car in the new shop.
3
00:00:28,236 --> 00:00:30,196
I feel like I need a tetanus shot.
4
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:32,991
Shawn, you know what the best thing is
about a four-door?
5
00:00:33,074 --> 00:00:34,826
- What's that?
- I don't know. What is it?
6
00:00:36,870 --> 00:00:38,705
- Let's unhook this...
- All right.
7
00:00:38,788 --> 00:00:39,789
...and get it inside.
8
00:00:41,791 --> 00:00:44,431
- I got it. Don't worry, guys.
- It's official.
9
00:00:44,502 --> 00:00:47,547
Gotham Garage West is open for business.
10
00:00:47,630 --> 00:00:48,465
- What?
- What?
11
00:00:48,548 --> 00:00:51,301
- We're not calling it Gotham Garage West.
- Why not?
12
00:00:51,384 --> 00:00:54,345
I think we're actually south.
It should be Gotham South.
13
00:00:54,429 --> 00:00:56,890
Where do you come up with
Gotham Garage West?
14
00:00:56,973 --> 00:00:59,309
So anybody else
got any good ideas for names?
15
00:00:59,392 --> 00:01:01,895
How about Man Cave Shop?
16
00:01:01,978 --> 00:01:03,021
Hey.
17
00:01:03,104 --> 00:01:05,690
Caveman, grab your toolbox.
You're fired.
18
00:01:16,451 --> 00:01:20,163
Here at Gotham Garage,
we upgrade and trade...
19
00:01:22,248 --> 00:01:26,336
turning thousand-dollar rust buckets
into six-figure works of art...
20
00:01:28,421 --> 00:01:30,090
in a few greasy steps.
21
00:01:32,675 --> 00:01:36,179
And we just came off
one of our best years to date.
22
00:01:39,849 --> 00:01:43,561
We just traded a '54 COE and a '55 Futura
23
00:01:43,645 --> 00:01:45,980
for 170 grand.
24
00:01:46,606 --> 00:01:50,151
And instead of pumping the brakes,
we mashed the gas through the floor.
25
00:01:52,028 --> 00:01:54,322
We pooled our money
to get a second garage.
26
00:01:54,405 --> 00:01:55,949
Welcome back, everybody!
27
00:01:56,032 --> 00:01:58,868
In order to get this new shop
ready for action,
28
00:01:58,952 --> 00:02:01,496
we've been flipping cars
and trading them for tools
29
00:02:01,579 --> 00:02:03,289
just to get this building set up.
30
00:02:03,373 --> 00:02:06,417
Now that you've seen your toy, show us
what we're gonna get in trade for it.
31
00:02:06,501 --> 00:02:07,627
All of it's yours.
32
00:02:07,710 --> 00:02:11,840
Expanding any small business this fast
is a huge gamble,
33
00:02:11,923 --> 00:02:16,928
but if you want to build more cars
and be more efficient and make more money,
34
00:02:17,011 --> 00:02:18,638
you just gotta double down.
35
00:02:18,721 --> 00:02:22,016
And for us, that time is right now.
36
00:02:28,523 --> 00:02:30,567
You're not calling it
Gotham Garage West.
37
00:02:30,650 --> 00:02:31,776
What are we doing?
38
00:02:31,860 --> 00:02:35,822
You guys, let's focus on this
because I got questions.
39
00:02:35,905 --> 00:02:37,073
Seriously, what is this?
40
00:02:37,157 --> 00:02:39,367
This is a '53 Buick Special.
41
00:02:39,450 --> 00:02:41,411
It is our trade-up car.
42
00:02:41,494 --> 00:02:43,037
Yes, it looks ugly,
43
00:02:43,121 --> 00:02:45,999
but we have somebody
that thinks it's beautiful.
44
00:02:46,082 --> 00:02:48,376
It's the same guy that gave him
that friendnship bracelet.
45
00:02:48,459 --> 00:02:50,461
Yeah. Anyway...
46
00:02:50,545 --> 00:02:53,798
The guy we're trading this with
says it had to be a Buick,
47
00:02:53,882 --> 00:02:57,468
it had to be a Special,
and it had to be a '53.
48
00:02:57,552 --> 00:03:01,222
Apparently this four-door
is the exact model his old man drove,
49
00:03:01,306 --> 00:03:04,851
and he's always wanted to own one,
but with a lot more muscle.
50
00:03:04,934 --> 00:03:09,022
So what I want to do is turn this car
into the first Gotham Garage sleeper.
51
00:03:09,105 --> 00:03:10,785
Gotham Garage sleeper.
We haven't done one.
52
00:03:13,234 --> 00:03:15,945
I know this guy asked for
a little more muscle,
53
00:03:16,029 --> 00:03:20,116
but with this new shop, we need to blow
every client's expectations away.
54
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,327
So we're not just adding muscle.
55
00:03:22,410 --> 00:03:24,537
We're making it a full-blown sleeper,
56
00:03:24,621 --> 00:03:27,373
and a sleeper is all about one thing...
57
00:03:27,457 --> 00:03:28,457
deception.
58
00:03:29,626 --> 00:03:33,296
On the outside, it looks stock and slow,
59
00:03:33,379 --> 00:03:35,798
but hidden inside is an upgraded motor
60
00:03:35,882 --> 00:03:38,176
surrounded by
high-performance racing parts
61
00:03:38,259 --> 00:03:40,011
that make it fast and mean.
62
00:03:44,933 --> 00:03:47,894
We'll swap the original suspension
that handled like a boat
63
00:03:47,977 --> 00:03:51,105
for a Corvette front end
and coilover shocks in the rear.
64
00:03:51,189 --> 00:03:55,526
That way, this thing will hold the road,
no matter how much horsepower we give it,
65
00:03:55,610 --> 00:03:57,445
and we're gonna give it a lot.
66
00:03:57,528 --> 00:04:00,365
We're pulling out
that 60-year-old straight eight
67
00:04:00,448 --> 00:04:03,993
and replacing it with a 350 V8
with tons of torque.
68
00:04:04,077 --> 00:04:08,414
Then we'll complete the disguise
by restoring the outside completely stock
69
00:04:08,498 --> 00:04:11,542
with a two-tone paint job
and whitewall tires.
70
00:04:11,626 --> 00:04:14,003
You'll see this baby coming
from a mile away,
71
00:04:14,087 --> 00:04:15,755
but good luck keeping up with her.
72
00:04:15,838 --> 00:04:17,966
I like the build.
We're gonna turn it into a sleeper.
73
00:04:18,049 --> 00:04:20,551
But then after we finish it,
what are we getting for it?
74
00:04:20,635 --> 00:04:22,971
This isn't a car
we're gonna try and sell out there.
75
00:04:23,054 --> 00:04:25,181
This is a trade-up car only.
76
00:04:26,182 --> 00:04:27,225
So let me lay it out.
77
00:04:28,434 --> 00:04:31,312
We're gonna take this absolute turd
78
00:04:31,396 --> 00:04:35,149
and turn it into a peach
worth 25 or 30 Gs.
79
00:04:35,233 --> 00:04:38,319
I've got a guy
willing to trade it straight up
80
00:04:38,403 --> 00:04:42,949
for a '71 Chevy Blazer
with the full removable hardtop.
81
00:04:43,032 --> 00:04:45,118
That's a very desirable truck.
82
00:04:45,201 --> 00:04:49,372
And once we get done,
the value will be around 60 grand,
83
00:04:49,455 --> 00:04:52,041
and that'll lead us to the crown jewel,
84
00:04:52,125 --> 00:04:57,046
a replica of
a '59 Corvette Stingray concept car.
85
00:04:57,130 --> 00:04:59,007
That car is iconic,
86
00:04:59,090 --> 00:05:01,676
and when we make that thing beautiful
and cash out,
87
00:05:01,759 --> 00:05:04,178
it's gonna be one hell of a payday.
88
00:05:04,262 --> 00:05:07,098
We're talking well over six figures.
89
00:05:08,891 --> 00:05:11,269
You guys get to start on this immediately.
90
00:05:11,352 --> 00:05:13,479
Let's get some GoJaks and get this done.
91
00:05:14,605 --> 00:05:16,524
Let's get this thing apart.
92
00:05:20,778 --> 00:05:24,866
Shawn can annoy me nonstop every day,
93
00:05:25,283 --> 00:05:29,120
but there is nobody better
at making deals than him.
94
00:05:29,203 --> 00:05:33,166
He's like a savant.
For this second shop to be successful,
95
00:05:33,249 --> 00:05:37,295
Shawn is really gonna
have to step it up even more.
96
00:05:37,378 --> 00:05:38,856
- Pretty good there.
- How's that look?
97
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:40,631
Right there looks pretty good to me.
98
00:05:41,466 --> 00:05:43,468
Wrong size.
I need to go up one size.
99
00:05:43,551 --> 00:05:45,720
If Mark would've told us
we were doing the car here,
100
00:05:45,803 --> 00:05:47,638
we could've brought our tools over.
101
00:05:47,722 --> 00:05:50,892
1953 was actually
a really cool year for Buick
102
00:05:50,975 --> 00:05:53,019
because it was their 50th anniversary.
103
00:05:53,102 --> 00:05:57,440
The Special wasn't considered
the most glamorous car that they made.
104
00:05:57,523 --> 00:06:00,902
It was kind of considered
a smaller, more entry-level car,
105
00:06:00,985 --> 00:06:04,697
which is crazy because in today's world,
this car's huge.
106
00:06:04,781 --> 00:06:07,909
But because it's old and big
and has four doors,
107
00:06:07,992 --> 00:06:10,411
it's the perfect car to make a sleeper.
108
00:06:10,495 --> 00:06:14,248
Nobody will expect this thing
to go fast or handle well,
109
00:06:14,332 --> 00:06:16,709
but when we're done with it,
it absolutely will.
110
00:06:22,298 --> 00:06:24,467
Unh. There it goes.
111
00:06:24,550 --> 00:06:26,094
That motor's huge.
112
00:06:26,177 --> 00:06:28,805
Let's get this out of the way
so you guys can get started.
113
00:06:28,888 --> 00:06:30,348
I'm gonna work on that 350.
114
00:06:30,431 --> 00:06:33,851
It's so nice having all this
extra space here for our teardowns.
115
00:06:33,935 --> 00:06:37,230
How long before we have this place
overloaded with stuff?
116
00:06:37,313 --> 00:06:40,108
Give it till after lunch.
117
00:06:45,738 --> 00:06:47,740
Here's the entire problem
with this garage.
118
00:06:47,824 --> 00:06:50,576
We have so much stuff,
but you can't throw it away
119
00:06:50,660 --> 00:06:52,220
'cause you never know when you need it.
120
00:06:52,245 --> 00:06:56,207
If you look at all my shelves, there's
four cars in parts on those two shelves.
121
00:06:56,290 --> 00:06:59,836
I need all of this stuff to build cars
the way that I build cars.
122
00:07:00,294 --> 00:07:01,546
Having less space
123
00:07:01,629 --> 00:07:04,424
means not only are we
on top of each other all the time,
124
00:07:04,507 --> 00:07:06,175
but we're always waiting on something.
125
00:07:06,259 --> 00:07:09,011
Waiting on the compressor,
waiting on the lifts.
126
00:07:09,095 --> 00:07:10,930
We waste time waiting on tools.
127
00:07:11,013 --> 00:07:12,223
Think about it like this.
128
00:07:12,306 --> 00:07:15,268
You got four chefs.
They're in a tiny little kitchen.
129
00:07:15,351 --> 00:07:17,520
They're fighting over burner space,
time on the oven.
130
00:07:17,603 --> 00:07:19,313
They're fighting over ingredients.
131
00:07:19,397 --> 00:07:21,482
Food's gonna take forever to cook.
132
00:07:21,566 --> 00:07:25,570
But take those same four chefs,
give them a little bit more room...
133
00:07:25,653 --> 00:07:27,613
Better yet, give them two kitchens,
134
00:07:27,697 --> 00:07:31,617
and boom, you've got gourmet meals
coming out twice as fast.
135
00:07:31,701 --> 00:07:34,162
That's the premise behind
having this second shop...
136
00:07:34,245 --> 00:07:36,998
same manpower, double the efficiency.
137
00:07:41,127 --> 00:07:43,546
Somebody mess with my chair?
I feel lower today.
138
00:07:43,629 --> 00:07:46,090
Are you trying to get up on me?
Is that the deal?
139
00:07:46,174 --> 00:07:49,093
That's what I'm trying to get here. So...
140
00:07:49,177 --> 00:07:52,138
We got a great upgrade-and-trade car
with that Buick,
141
00:07:52,221 --> 00:07:54,765
but, uh, we're gonna need
a cash car right now.
142
00:07:54,849 --> 00:07:57,351
We gotta float bills
at both places right now.
143
00:07:57,435 --> 00:07:59,937
Well, I've got a guy that wants us
to do a build for him.
144
00:08:00,021 --> 00:08:02,940
- Yeah?
- He's got a '73 Pinto.
145
00:08:03,024 --> 00:08:05,151
That's not a bad car.
They were pretty popular.
146
00:08:05,234 --> 00:08:07,278
- I had... I had two of them.
- Really?
147
00:08:07,361 --> 00:08:10,364
Yeah. They make a really cool
mini hot rod with big, wide tires,
148
00:08:10,448 --> 00:08:13,910
and you can put, like, a big block in it
sticking up out of the hood.
149
00:08:13,993 --> 00:08:16,120
That's, like, a really good
Gotham Garage car.
150
00:08:16,204 --> 00:08:18,039
Well, that's the catch
with this one.
151
00:08:18,122 --> 00:08:21,918
The guy wants it to be an electric Pinto.
152
00:08:23,711 --> 00:08:25,838
- Electric blue?
- No, no, no.
153
00:08:25,922 --> 00:08:30,051
As in, convert the motor to electric.
This helps us expand, right?
154
00:08:30,134 --> 00:08:33,971
I said expand. I didn't say
start a whole new industry-business thing.
155
00:08:34,055 --> 00:08:36,474
We're not.
We're customizing a car for a guy.
156
00:08:36,557 --> 00:08:39,397
You know why I don't do it? I know
what it cost to make an electric car.
157
00:08:39,435 --> 00:08:42,480
I know they're expensive, but that's okay.
He's got the money.
158
00:08:42,563 --> 00:08:46,651
- I think it's a perfect cash deal for us...
- I'm not excited about building an...
159
00:08:46,734 --> 00:08:50,696
Listen, it's not just the fact
that it's an electric car.
160
00:08:50,780 --> 00:08:52,406
It's who we're doing it for.
161
00:08:52,490 --> 00:08:54,283
- Who we doing it for?
- Gil Losi.
162
00:08:54,367 --> 00:08:56,786
He's in the Grand National Roadster Show
Hall of Fame.
163
00:08:56,869 --> 00:09:00,331
If he's in the Roadster Show Hall of Fame,
then he's gotta be somebody pretty big.
164
00:09:00,414 --> 00:09:02,792
Gil Losi is a legend.
165
00:09:02,875 --> 00:09:05,962
He's been an innovator
in every part of the car business,
166
00:09:06,045 --> 00:09:08,047
especially the racing world.
167
00:09:08,130 --> 00:09:12,260
He sponsored his own IndyCar team,
and they were always ahead of the curve.
168
00:09:12,343 --> 00:09:14,595
This is one of those guys
who's on the cutting edge.
169
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:16,639
He always does something kind of new.
170
00:09:16,722 --> 00:09:19,225
What's he want specifically?
What are we doing to this Pinto?
171
00:09:19,308 --> 00:09:24,480
He wants a Pinto dragster,
and he wants it with electric motor.
172
00:09:24,564 --> 00:09:27,567
It's got to be under nine seconds
in the eighth mile.
173
00:09:27,650 --> 00:09:29,777
- We're talking serious fast.
- That's quick, dude.
174
00:09:29,860 --> 00:09:32,905
That's not even fast. That's quick.
You gotta be quick to beat nine seconds.
175
00:09:32,989 --> 00:09:35,241
Hell, yeah.
Are you cool with this? Can you...
176
00:09:35,324 --> 00:09:37,994
No, I'm really not cool with this,
but I'll-I'll build it.
177
00:09:38,077 --> 00:09:39,620
You just get the money.
178
00:09:39,704 --> 00:09:41,872
- All right.
- Now get out of my office.
179
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:45,167
I'm out. I'm gonna go in the other room
180
00:09:45,251 --> 00:09:47,253
and cry that I have to build
an electric car.
181
00:09:47,336 --> 00:09:49,964
I can't believe
you agreed to do an electric car.
182
00:09:50,047 --> 00:09:51,047
Sellout.
183
00:09:53,217 --> 00:09:57,346
Caveman, check out this little gem.
This is why I called you back over here.
184
00:09:57,430 --> 00:09:59,265
Wow, look at that. A Pinto.
185
00:09:59,348 --> 00:10:00,891
My brother had one. Wait. Wait.
186
00:10:02,727 --> 00:10:03,894
Yeah, there you go.
187
00:10:05,313 --> 00:10:07,398
Dude, it has an 8-track player in it!
188
00:10:07,481 --> 00:10:10,526
You're gonna love this idea.
We're gonna make a drag car out of it.
189
00:10:10,610 --> 00:10:13,362
Ooh, okay. I'm down for that.
Down for a good drag car.
190
00:10:13,446 --> 00:10:14,739
It's gonna go on a diet, though.
191
00:10:15,740 --> 00:10:18,576
- You're scaring me.
- Gonna make an electric car out of it.
192
00:10:21,662 --> 00:10:23,372
What? Wait a second.
193
00:10:23,456 --> 00:10:26,959
I gotta make sure I'm at the same place.
What's that say?
194
00:10:27,043 --> 00:10:29,754
- That's says Gotham Garage.
- And what do we do at Gotham Garage?
195
00:10:29,837 --> 00:10:31,881
We build gasoline hot rods here.
196
00:10:31,964 --> 00:10:34,467
Yes, we do.
I know the "g" stands for gas.
197
00:10:34,550 --> 00:10:39,221
If we have to do an electric car,
we're gonna do it the Gotham Garage way.
198
00:10:40,348 --> 00:10:42,683
Gil wants this Pinto to look amazing.
199
00:10:42,767 --> 00:10:46,395
For us, that's the easy part,
but getting it to perform?
200
00:10:46,479 --> 00:10:48,022
That's gonna be the tricky part.
201
00:10:48,105 --> 00:10:51,233
For comparison,
your typical souped-up muscle car
202
00:10:51,317 --> 00:10:53,527
does a 10-to 12-second eighth mile.
203
00:10:53,611 --> 00:10:57,239
So to get it under nine,
it's gonna have to be really quick.
204
00:10:57,323 --> 00:10:59,200
How about a hood scoop on it, too?
205
00:10:59,283 --> 00:11:02,745
Just for a gag. You want the big snorkel?
That 12-inch one up there? Yeah.
206
00:11:02,828 --> 00:11:03,704
That would be great.
207
00:11:03,788 --> 00:11:06,999
Whether it's a gas-powered car
or an electric car,
208
00:11:07,083 --> 00:11:12,004
this Pinto needs to look and feel
like a badass dragster.
209
00:11:12,838 --> 00:11:16,884
We'll start by putting
giant big-ass tires on the back,
210
00:11:16,967 --> 00:11:19,470
and on the inside,
we'll make it racing safe.
211
00:11:19,553 --> 00:11:22,682
We'll put in a four-point roll cage,
racing seats,
212
00:11:22,765 --> 00:11:25,142
and fout-point racing harnesses.
213
00:11:25,226 --> 00:11:28,062
We'll add a big, fat hood scoop
just for looks...
214
00:11:28,729 --> 00:11:32,441
and polish it off by adding
an electroluminescent coating,
215
00:11:32,525 --> 00:11:34,985
which means it's gonna light up the night.
216
00:11:35,069 --> 00:11:37,780
- We need to strip this little car apart.
- Okay.
217
00:11:37,863 --> 00:11:40,741
The Ford Pinto is a car
that a lot of people have heard about...
218
00:11:42,493 --> 00:11:45,204
...because basically,
when they got rear-ended...
219
00:11:48,624 --> 00:11:49,624
boom.
220
00:11:51,627 --> 00:11:56,048
Ford put the fuel tank
between the rear axle and the rear bumper.
221
00:11:56,132 --> 00:11:59,468
So when you hit it just right,
they caught on fire.
222
00:12:00,302 --> 00:12:01,303
Let's see.
223
00:12:01,387 --> 00:12:05,182
My plan when we finish this car
is to take it straight to the dragstrip,
224
00:12:05,641 --> 00:12:07,101
have Gil meet us there.
225
00:12:07,727 --> 00:12:11,731
That way, first time he sees it
is when it shreds the track.
226
00:12:11,814 --> 00:12:13,274
Caveman likes to cut.
227
00:12:15,860 --> 00:12:17,570
We're gonna take out the bomb next.
228
00:12:17,653 --> 00:12:20,990
He's willing to give us 60-65 grand
229
00:12:21,073 --> 00:12:23,743
if this thing goes under nine seconds.
230
00:12:23,826 --> 00:12:26,620
If we can get it going
even faster than that,
231
00:12:26,704 --> 00:12:28,748
I know we can get more money.
232
00:12:30,624 --> 00:12:34,003
We gotta look at all of
the electrical components that we ordered
233
00:12:34,086 --> 00:12:36,380
and try to make
some kind of sense out of it.
234
00:12:36,464 --> 00:12:38,674
So all we have to do now
235
00:12:38,758 --> 00:12:42,219
is figure out
how to get all of this into that.
236
00:12:48,476 --> 00:12:49,476
Hmm.
237
00:12:49,518 --> 00:12:53,063
This is, like, way too much technology
in my life in front of me.
238
00:12:53,147 --> 00:12:56,108
There's a reason why I focus on
gasoline-powered cars.
239
00:12:57,359 --> 00:12:59,737
Because that's what I know how to do.
240
00:12:59,820 --> 00:13:03,532
Every time I stray from that,
I get myself into trouble.
241
00:13:03,616 --> 00:13:06,827
A certain Smart car
that almost destroyed me
242
00:13:06,911 --> 00:13:08,454
comes to mind.
243
00:13:08,537 --> 00:13:10,706
What is this? That's the motor.
244
00:13:10,790 --> 00:13:12,374
- It's a cap plate.
- Plastic cover?
245
00:13:12,458 --> 00:13:16,212
- I was gonna say, "What the hell?"
- I'm like, "How do you get the bolt out?"
246
00:13:16,295 --> 00:13:19,715
Apparently the Smart car's
outsmarting both of us.
247
00:13:19,799 --> 00:13:22,384
But I do learn from my mistakes,
248
00:13:22,468 --> 00:13:24,845
so I'm calling Tony
to take the lead on this one.
249
00:13:27,264 --> 00:13:28,265
Hello?
250
00:13:28,599 --> 00:13:31,519
So I need you to come over here
and help me figure this out.
251
00:13:31,602 --> 00:13:33,604
- Be there in a few minutes.
- All right. Bye.
252
00:13:33,687 --> 00:13:34,522
All right.
253
00:13:34,605 --> 00:13:36,816
I don't know
what the is going on here.
254
00:13:36,899 --> 00:13:39,610
- 'Cause we're dinosaurs. That's why.
- I know, right?
255
00:13:39,693 --> 00:13:41,946
I don't see anywhere to put gasoline.
256
00:13:42,029 --> 00:13:46,075
Man, this is a sight to see. You two guys
playing with a science-fair kit?
257
00:13:46,158 --> 00:13:46,992
Yeah.
258
00:13:47,076 --> 00:13:51,038
Tony is a master machinist
and a really great fabricator.
259
00:13:51,121 --> 00:13:53,582
He also loves this techy stuff.
260
00:13:53,666 --> 00:13:55,376
So usually when we're doing a motor swap,
261
00:13:55,459 --> 00:13:58,170
we're not dealing with this many parts
to make fit together.
262
00:13:58,254 --> 00:14:00,339
I think it'd be cool
if we could take all these parts
263
00:14:00,422 --> 00:14:02,716
- and make it into one big assembly.
- Yeah.
264
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:04,844
Drag cars
are all about acceleration.
265
00:14:04,927 --> 00:14:07,847
It's about getting off the line
as quick as you can,
266
00:14:07,930 --> 00:14:10,808
and electric motors
are actually really good for that.
267
00:14:10,891 --> 00:14:13,727
Most electric cars have one motor,
268
00:14:13,811 --> 00:14:17,189
but two motors coupled together
can actually double the power,
269
00:14:17,731 --> 00:14:21,277
and we have just enough space
in this Pinto engine compartment
270
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:23,028
to squeeze two motors in there.
271
00:14:24,613 --> 00:14:26,031
This is a drag car.
272
00:14:26,115 --> 00:14:28,909
Obviously we're gonna push the envelope
as far as we can.
273
00:14:30,744 --> 00:14:33,998
- Ta-da. One electric motor.
- It's pretty high tech.
274
00:14:34,081 --> 00:14:38,377
If we can get more power in
and make it go faster, we're gonna do it.
275
00:14:38,460 --> 00:14:41,922
I guess first thing tomorrow morning,
we'll start the electrical on the car,
276
00:14:42,006 --> 00:14:44,508
and, pardon the pun,
I will follow your lead.
277
00:14:53,726 --> 00:14:56,562
I've been really into
these electric-car conversions lately.
278
00:14:56,645 --> 00:14:58,230
Been doing a lot of research,
279
00:14:58,314 --> 00:15:00,983
and I've been waiting for one of these
to come through the shop.
280
00:15:01,066 --> 00:15:04,194
- Shouldn't have to guess, at this point.
- That's all we do here is guess.
281
00:15:04,278 --> 00:15:06,989
That's what the first "G"
in Gotham Garage is for.
282
00:15:07,072 --> 00:15:10,242
I still love our hot-rod builds,
and I'll never leave that behind.
283
00:15:10,326 --> 00:15:12,036
That's what we do here.
284
00:15:12,119 --> 00:15:14,038
But I do want to try something new
285
00:15:14,121 --> 00:15:17,708
and play with some of this
new-and-upcoming technology.
286
00:15:17,791 --> 00:15:19,001
Now we need some batteries.
287
00:15:20,252 --> 00:15:22,338
Rigging the Pinto up
to work on battery power
288
00:15:22,421 --> 00:15:24,173
is a really big job.
289
00:15:24,256 --> 00:15:27,009
- It's a bunch of double-A batteries.
- That's all it is.
290
00:15:27,092 --> 00:15:30,429
Every piece that we need, we have to make.
291
00:15:30,512 --> 00:15:35,100
If we need a battery box for the Pinto,
we have to make it from scratch.
292
00:15:35,935 --> 00:15:38,687
So together they make
quite a bit of voltage.
293
00:15:38,771 --> 00:15:41,607
- You really have to pay attention.
- Correct.
294
00:15:44,276 --> 00:15:45,444
That'll wake you up.
295
00:15:45,527 --> 00:15:49,281
The unfortunate thing
is it's only gonna get more complicated
296
00:15:49,365 --> 00:15:50,407
from this point forward.
297
00:15:50,491 --> 00:15:54,495
What I'm doing here
is wiring up our Tesla battery pack.
298
00:15:54,578 --> 00:15:57,748
The manual for the electric car
is about a inch and a half thick,
299
00:15:57,831 --> 00:16:00,209
and half of it
is written in another language.
300
00:16:01,877 --> 00:16:05,089
To top it off, these instructions
are for a single-motor setup,
301
00:16:05,172 --> 00:16:07,257
and we're doing a dual-motor setup.
302
00:16:07,341 --> 00:16:10,302
Since this is our first time around
with an electric car,
303
00:16:10,386 --> 00:16:12,137
this could take some trial and error.
304
00:16:12,221 --> 00:16:14,723
We just have to dive in and figure it out.
305
00:16:14,807 --> 00:16:17,601
- Is it ready to go?
- I think we're ready to turn on.
306
00:16:17,685 --> 00:16:20,020
Three, two, one.
307
00:16:22,564 --> 00:16:24,668
There's no vroom sound.
I don't know how hard to push.
308
00:16:24,692 --> 00:16:28,028
I know, right?
I'm getting my electric-car ride.
309
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:34,868
It does not like the rev-up.
310
00:16:35,619 --> 00:16:36,662
I lost power.
311
00:16:39,123 --> 00:16:40,416
I got no gas.
312
00:16:44,628 --> 00:16:48,215
As soon as we go full on the throttle,
we lose all power.
313
00:16:48,799 --> 00:16:50,342
Well, that was fun.
314
00:16:50,426 --> 00:16:54,471
But I've got my trusty
500-page manual here.
315
00:16:54,847 --> 00:16:57,933
- Figure out why your toy don't work.
- This is my toy now, huh?
316
00:16:58,017 --> 00:17:00,185
When they don't work,
they're no longer my toys...
317
00:17:00,269 --> 00:17:02,521
All right, I'm on it.
Let me get this thing plugged in.
318
00:17:08,027 --> 00:17:11,739
This 350 V8 is going to be
the perfect motor for this Buick.
319
00:17:12,197 --> 00:17:15,159
I mean, nobody's going to expect it
to have so much power.
320
00:17:15,576 --> 00:17:18,454
We actually pulled this 350
out of a previous build,
321
00:17:18,537 --> 00:17:20,539
so it's been in the shop for a while now.
322
00:17:20,622 --> 00:17:24,293
It's going from sitting on a shelf
somewhere in the back of the shop,
323
00:17:24,376 --> 00:17:28,088
and now it gets the chance to be
the heart and soul of this sleeper.
324
00:17:28,172 --> 00:17:29,882
I'm the engine specialist here,
325
00:17:29,965 --> 00:17:33,927
and builds like this
are really why I just love my job.
326
00:17:37,056 --> 00:17:40,267
Hey, Caveman,
can I get a little man muscle over here?
327
00:17:43,979 --> 00:17:45,355
Keep going. Keep going. Oh.
328
00:17:45,439 --> 00:17:46,857
This way some...
329
00:17:47,733 --> 00:17:50,235
and kick my end out some.
330
00:17:50,319 --> 00:17:53,739
Ooh. Oh, yeah.
All right, we're all the way in.
331
00:17:53,822 --> 00:17:54,948
- Right?
- Looks good.
332
00:17:57,242 --> 00:18:00,662
Sounds like Caveman and Constance
are cruising on that sleeper,
333
00:18:00,746 --> 00:18:04,583
but the electric Pinto
is basically at a standstill.
334
00:18:04,666 --> 00:18:07,086
I got no power coming from the key.
335
00:18:07,169 --> 00:18:08,921
With gasoline-driven cars,
336
00:18:09,004 --> 00:18:12,049
you can use all your senses
to figure out what the problem is.
337
00:18:12,132 --> 00:18:14,676
You can see things.
You can tell if it's getting gas.
338
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:16,720
You tell if it's getting spark.
You hear things.
339
00:18:16,804 --> 00:18:19,348
"That's a rod knock.
Doesn't sound like the timing's right."
340
00:18:19,431 --> 00:18:22,392
Maybe back to the longer one,
do that same loop.
341
00:18:22,476 --> 00:18:25,604
You can smell things.
"It's leaking fuel somewhere."
342
00:18:25,687 --> 00:18:27,607
- It's quite the puzzle, isn't it?
- Yeah.
343
00:18:27,648 --> 00:18:29,408
Electric cars...
This is what you get.
344
00:18:31,527 --> 00:18:32,861
There's nothing.
345
00:18:36,907 --> 00:18:38,700
How do you know if it... if it's on?
346
00:18:38,784 --> 00:18:42,871
- That's a good question.
- The problem could be anywhere.
347
00:18:42,955 --> 00:18:48,252
I'm telling you, this is turning into
that fricking Smart car, dude.
348
00:18:48,335 --> 00:18:49,878
Ah. Fun stuff, man.
349
00:18:51,547 --> 00:18:53,423
Uh, maybe we just popped a fuse
or something.
350
00:18:55,634 --> 00:18:58,470
Oh, yeah.
We-We just blew a fuse right here.
351
00:18:58,554 --> 00:18:59,555
Yeah.
352
00:18:59,638 --> 00:19:01,390
You got one of these?
353
00:19:01,473 --> 00:19:03,142
Nope, but I know how to fix it.
354
00:19:03,976 --> 00:19:06,854
So in my day, this is why they said
355
00:19:06,937 --> 00:19:10,774
you put cars together
with chewing gum and baling wire.
356
00:19:10,858 --> 00:19:12,651
Because the foil is so thin on here
357
00:19:12,734 --> 00:19:16,405
that if it really is a short,
it'll singe it and burn it in half again.
358
00:19:16,488 --> 00:19:18,240
This is how you get home
from the drive-in.
359
00:19:18,323 --> 00:19:19,700
Just stick it in, it'll work.
360
00:19:19,783 --> 00:19:24,413
So we're really gonna use
chewing gum right now
361
00:19:24,496 --> 00:19:25,497
to fix the electric car?
362
00:19:25,581 --> 00:19:28,834
We're not actually using the chewing gum.
We're using the foil wrapper.
363
00:19:28,917 --> 00:19:30,335
If you say so.
364
00:19:30,419 --> 00:19:33,422
The best part is you'll never
have to replace that fuse again.
365
00:19:33,505 --> 00:19:35,465
All right.
366
00:19:35,549 --> 00:19:37,801
It needs a little old school
with the new school.
367
00:19:37,885 --> 00:19:38,885
Punch the throttle.
368
00:19:40,137 --> 00:19:41,388
- See?
- There it goes.
369
00:19:43,056 --> 00:19:44,808
That almost sounds like a real motor.
370
00:19:45,726 --> 00:19:48,103
All this work,
and that's what we were missing.
371
00:19:49,897 --> 00:19:53,108
I can grab the seats we got for it,
and we can stick 'em in real fast.
372
00:19:56,653 --> 00:19:57,779
- Yeah, baby.
- Not bad.
373
00:20:02,743 --> 00:20:04,119
Whoa.
374
00:20:04,203 --> 00:20:05,787
Dude.
375
00:20:07,039 --> 00:20:09,833
That's got some yip-yay.
That is way better than before.
376
00:20:09,917 --> 00:20:11,460
- Gets a big high five.
- Pretty good.
377
00:20:11,543 --> 00:20:12,878
- High five.
- Yeah, baby.
378
00:20:12,961 --> 00:20:15,172
The Pinto
is running really well on the street.
379
00:20:15,255 --> 00:20:19,092
Tony has these motors dialed in.
Everything seems to be working properly.
380
00:20:19,176 --> 00:20:22,596
It seems to be really quick,
but it's impossible to know
381
00:20:22,679 --> 00:20:25,557
if we're gonna get under nine seconds
in a eighth mile
382
00:20:25,641 --> 00:20:28,060
until we actually
get this thing on the track,
383
00:20:28,143 --> 00:20:32,314
which means we need to finish the car,
so now it's fabrication time.
384
00:20:32,397 --> 00:20:34,358
First off, we need to make room for
385
00:20:34,441 --> 00:20:36,777
the biggest, meatiest rear tires
we can find.
386
00:20:36,860 --> 00:20:38,570
And it's not gonna fit.
387
00:20:38,654 --> 00:20:39,488
Oh, it'll fit.
388
00:20:39,571 --> 00:20:42,699
One, two, three! Gotham Garage rocks!
389
00:20:48,664 --> 00:20:52,334
Then we got to build
a four-point roll cage for safety.
390
00:20:52,417 --> 00:20:54,878
Every serious dragster needs one.
391
00:20:58,382 --> 00:20:59,466
I asked for a hood scoop.
392
00:20:59,549 --> 00:21:02,302
The hood scoop
is really just eye candy.
393
00:21:02,386 --> 00:21:06,723
It's not necessary for an electric motor
to have an air intake on top of the hood.
394
00:21:06,807 --> 00:21:08,392
It's just my twisted sense of humor.
395
00:21:08,475 --> 00:21:10,644
Remember to wear the safety goggles.
396
00:21:10,727 --> 00:21:12,688
Where's the queen? Where's the queen?
397
00:21:13,063 --> 00:21:16,066
This is a drag car.
It should look like a drag car.
398
00:21:16,149 --> 00:21:19,945
- That's a good job. I'll give you a "B."
- A "B"? It's better than a "D."
399
00:21:20,028 --> 00:21:21,280
Right. Exactly.
400
00:21:21,363 --> 00:21:22,489
Ow.
401
00:21:22,572 --> 00:21:24,366
- I get you?
- Oh, got me good.
402
00:21:27,536 --> 00:21:31,164
- Check that out.
- That's '70s drag car all day long.
403
00:21:31,248 --> 00:21:32,291
Right?
404
00:21:47,014 --> 00:21:49,224
The Pinto's
been anything but ordinary
405
00:21:49,308 --> 00:21:52,436
up to this point, so why stop now?
406
00:21:52,519 --> 00:21:55,647
We're gonna put a product on it
called LumiLor.
407
00:21:55,731 --> 00:21:59,067
It's an electroilluminescent coating.
408
00:21:59,151 --> 00:22:00,736
It's a light-emitting paint.
409
00:22:00,819 --> 00:22:02,863
It's pretty much magic.
410
00:22:02,946 --> 00:22:04,239
I don't know how it works.
411
00:22:05,365 --> 00:22:10,454
This is gonna be the perfect way
to highlight our electric dragster.
412
00:22:16,626 --> 00:22:21,089
Shawn's customer
wanted a Gotham Garage ride, electrified.
413
00:22:24,134 --> 00:22:27,888
And that's exactly what he's gonna get,
right down to the paint.
414
00:22:32,851 --> 00:22:34,144
With that done...
415
00:22:35,020 --> 00:22:38,273
now we're gonna skin this
with a badass purple wrap.
416
00:22:42,152 --> 00:22:44,029
Our goals on this Pinto
417
00:22:44,112 --> 00:22:46,907
were to make it electric
and make it quick.
418
00:22:47,532 --> 00:22:50,327
We gave it wide, meaty tires for traction,
419
00:22:50,410 --> 00:22:52,245
a four-point roll cage,
420
00:22:52,329 --> 00:22:55,290
racing seats,
and harnesses for track safety.
421
00:22:55,374 --> 00:22:59,711
We hooked it up to two electric motors
powered by seven batteries.
422
00:23:00,379 --> 00:23:02,923
This thing is lightning quick
on the street.
423
00:23:03,006 --> 00:23:05,592
It should break nine seconds no problem.
424
00:23:05,675 --> 00:23:08,637
But you can't test
the eighth mile out here safely,
425
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:11,848
and it's not like
I got keys to the dragstrip.
426
00:23:11,932 --> 00:23:13,809
So we're just gonna have to hope
427
00:23:13,892 --> 00:23:16,478
that this thing... nails it at the track.
428
00:23:28,824 --> 00:23:30,409
Good evening, race fans.
429
00:23:30,492 --> 00:23:33,662
Welcome to Thursday Night Thunder
at Irwindale Dragstrip.
430
00:23:40,168 --> 00:23:43,171
Our client Gil
wanted a sub-nine-second car,
431
00:23:43,255 --> 00:23:46,133
and he has agreed
to pay handsomely for it
432
00:23:46,216 --> 00:23:48,969
to the tune of $65,000.
433
00:23:49,052 --> 00:23:53,432
Our thought is that if the car performs
even better than expected,
434
00:23:53,932 --> 00:23:56,101
Gil might dig
a little deeper in his wallet.
435
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:04,025
Next up to the line
is a fully electric 1970 Ford Pinto
436
00:24:04,109 --> 00:24:07,863
by Gotham Garage
out of Temecula, California.
437
00:24:09,698 --> 00:24:12,117
Yeah, we like the Pinto!
438
00:24:13,493 --> 00:24:16,997
Wow. That thing's pretty wild.
Now, if it runs like it looks...
439
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:18,415
Hell, yeah, it's gonna run.
440
00:24:19,249 --> 00:24:22,836
Our goal with the Pinto was this...
there's no half measures.
441
00:24:24,379 --> 00:24:26,131
If we're gonna do it,
442
00:24:26,214 --> 00:24:31,052
it's gonna be the most badass
Gotham Garage electric dragster ever.
443
00:25:03,877 --> 00:25:06,004
Under eight seconds?
Are you kidding me?
444
00:25:06,087 --> 00:25:07,207
That thing is amazing.
445
00:25:07,255 --> 00:25:10,091
How'd they get that little car
to go that fast that quiet?
446
00:25:10,175 --> 00:25:12,511
- That's crazy.
- That is fast.
447
00:25:14,346 --> 00:25:15,722
Hitting the gas in this
448
00:25:15,805 --> 00:25:18,975
makes you feel like you're strapped to
the front of an asteroid.
449
00:25:19,643 --> 00:25:22,187
It flies. It eats the pavement.
450
00:25:27,025 --> 00:25:31,988
We did an under-eight-second pass
on our first run with no tuning.
451
00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:37,285
I never thought I'd say this,
but I actually kind of love this car.
452
00:25:38,954 --> 00:25:41,581
And the only step left now is to sell it.
453
00:25:42,707 --> 00:25:45,919
The guy we built this for
is huge in the hot-rod community,
454
00:25:46,002 --> 00:25:49,881
and according to Shawn, he's always
been on the cutting edge of technology,
455
00:25:50,382 --> 00:25:52,467
both as a car builder and as a man.
456
00:25:52,551 --> 00:25:54,803
- Was that fast or what?
- That was really good.
457
00:25:54,886 --> 00:25:56,721
It's amazing. Totally amazing.
458
00:25:57,639 --> 00:26:00,475
There goes our Pinto! Yeah!
459
00:26:05,855 --> 00:26:07,941
- Now does that look good?
- It looks really hot.
460
00:26:08,024 --> 00:26:10,485
I think the car is great.
You guys did a unbelievable...
461
00:26:10,569 --> 00:26:13,697
Runs like a champ. Thanks.
Our crew did a great job.
462
00:26:13,780 --> 00:26:15,156
And it just never made a sound.
463
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:17,367
Yeah, it's a silent but deadly, I guess.
464
00:26:17,450 --> 00:26:19,286
It's quieter than regular electric cars.
465
00:26:19,369 --> 00:26:21,288
They make some noise.
This makes no noise.
466
00:26:21,371 --> 00:26:24,165
Yeah, yeah.
This is, like, a lot of fun. A lot of fun.
467
00:26:24,249 --> 00:26:26,751
There's a whole lot done to this car.
468
00:26:26,835 --> 00:26:30,338
It's pretty much a drag car,
but it's also a showpiece.
469
00:26:30,422 --> 00:26:34,050
Underneath the hood, what we did
is the motors are joined with a coupler.
470
00:26:34,134 --> 00:26:36,511
That's the front motor,
and that's the back motor.
471
00:26:36,595 --> 00:26:38,054
And it has an electric pump
472
00:26:38,138 --> 00:26:40,015
for the transmission
to cycle fluid through it.
473
00:26:40,098 --> 00:26:43,143
It's got automatic transmission fluid
going through it.
474
00:26:43,226 --> 00:26:45,145
It's got a readerboard that tells you
475
00:26:45,228 --> 00:26:46,980
everything you need to know
in front of you.
476
00:26:47,063 --> 00:26:50,150
I think the car is great.
Great color. It's a great design.
477
00:26:50,233 --> 00:26:51,860
The flares and everything look good.
478
00:26:51,943 --> 00:26:53,862
I love all the lights and stuff in it.
479
00:26:53,945 --> 00:26:56,239
But wait. Here's the other cool thing.
480
00:26:56,323 --> 00:26:59,159
This is illuminescent paint.
481
00:26:59,242 --> 00:27:01,369
The stripes light up.
How do you like that?
482
00:27:02,370 --> 00:27:04,265
- That's wild.
- That's an electric car, isn't it?
483
00:27:04,289 --> 00:27:07,083
That's wild. I heard of this stuff,
but I've never seen it.
484
00:27:07,167 --> 00:27:10,420
I didn't either. I was like, "We gotta
put that on. It's an electric car."
485
00:27:10,503 --> 00:27:12,422
That's crazy. What about the radio?
486
00:27:12,505 --> 00:27:14,090
- It's a 8-track.
- Yeah.
487
00:27:14,174 --> 00:27:17,636
Originally we agreed to
65 grand for this Pinto build,
488
00:27:17,719 --> 00:27:19,554
which seems like a ton of money,
489
00:27:19,638 --> 00:27:22,432
but electric cars are not cheap to build.
490
00:27:22,515 --> 00:27:26,186
We really only stand to make
about 15 grand for this job.
491
00:27:26,269 --> 00:27:29,648
When you split that between all of us,
it's not a whole lot of money.
492
00:27:29,731 --> 00:27:33,485
But this car performed
beyond expectations.
493
00:27:33,568 --> 00:27:35,403
Man, we got to push for more money.
494
00:27:35,487 --> 00:27:37,197
- Are you impressed yet?
- I really am.
495
00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:41,284
Originally, we talked about 65,000,
496
00:27:41,368 --> 00:27:44,245
but we knew that was
a bit of a floating budget.
497
00:27:44,329 --> 00:27:45,872
What's this "we"?
498
00:27:45,955 --> 00:27:48,917
Well, that's us.
I talked to you on the phone about this.
499
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:52,170
- So here's what I'm gonna throw at you.
- I knew that was gonna happen.
500
00:27:52,253 --> 00:27:55,423
I'm thinking
because we put in so much extra,
501
00:27:55,507 --> 00:27:58,677
we're gonna just up the bill
to, like, 80 grand,
502
00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:01,763
and I think that's more than reasonable.
503
00:28:01,846 --> 00:28:04,808
You got your head up your?
504
00:28:04,891 --> 00:28:08,395
But 65,000 was for a nine-second car.
505
00:28:08,478 --> 00:28:11,356
- We got under-eight-second car.
- High sevens.
506
00:28:11,439 --> 00:28:12,941
- High sevens, exactly.
- High sevens.
507
00:28:13,024 --> 00:28:15,568
So what do you think?
How's 80? Is that fair?
508
00:28:15,652 --> 00:28:16,695
No.
509
00:28:16,778 --> 00:28:18,446
You got a one-of-a-kind car.
510
00:28:19,447 --> 00:28:22,283
- Seventy-five. We got a deal.
- Seventy-five?
511
00:28:22,367 --> 00:28:25,787
Shake his hand before he changes his mind.
512
00:28:25,870 --> 00:28:27,550
- Okay.
- Hand him the keys to his new car.
513
00:28:27,580 --> 00:28:29,958
- Here you go.
- I appreciate what you guys have done.
514
00:28:30,458 --> 00:28:31,459
Thank you, Gil.
515
00:28:31,543 --> 00:28:35,505
So Mark showed him a good time,
and Gil paid for it.
516
00:28:35,588 --> 00:28:38,508
- That does not sound right.
- It's all right with me.
517
00:28:38,591 --> 00:28:41,352
I showed him a good enough time
that he gave us a lot of money.
518
00:28:41,386 --> 00:28:44,180
About ten grand more than
we originally thought we were gonna.
519
00:28:44,264 --> 00:28:46,141
So?
520
00:28:46,224 --> 00:28:48,184
- Well, how'd we do?
- Seventy-five Gs.
521
00:28:48,268 --> 00:28:49,394
There you go.
522
00:28:49,477 --> 00:28:50,311
And Gil's happy?
523
00:28:50,395 --> 00:28:52,021
- Gil's stoked. Yeah.
- Gil's very happy.
524
00:28:52,105 --> 00:28:54,566
- Totally loves it.
- His dream car. That's what he was after.
525
00:28:54,649 --> 00:28:58,153
So now don't forget,
we still have a Buick we gotta finish.
526
00:28:58,236 --> 00:29:00,405
- We did not forget.
- We didn't forget.
527
00:29:00,488 --> 00:29:02,407
So I'm gonna take my truck
528
00:29:02,490 --> 00:29:05,076
and go home with a empty trailer
and a happy face.
529
00:29:06,619 --> 00:29:08,538
So I will see you all back at the shop.
530
00:29:08,621 --> 00:29:09,789
- All right.
- Good job, guys.
531
00:29:09,873 --> 00:29:11,708
- Good job.
- Good day, you guys.
532
00:29:21,801 --> 00:29:24,929
- Look at this. 1950's technology.
- Yeah.
533
00:29:25,013 --> 00:29:27,182
Twenty-first century technology. Hmm.
534
00:29:27,265 --> 00:29:30,852
We got to get back to this Buick
'cause it is very important.
535
00:29:30,935 --> 00:29:33,521
We're turning it into a sleeper car.
536
00:29:33,605 --> 00:29:34,606
Stop.
537
00:29:34,689 --> 00:29:36,357
It's a wolf in sheep's clothing.
538
00:29:36,441 --> 00:29:40,904
We're making a badass hot rod
camouflaged with a stock exterior.
539
00:29:43,239 --> 00:29:46,409
Caveman and I are gonna
put that rear suspension in that car.
540
00:29:46,493 --> 00:29:50,038
With those coilovers,
this car is gonna sit low and mean,
541
00:29:50,121 --> 00:29:51,956
and it's gonna handle like a dream.
542
00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:56,920
While we're doing that,
Constance is gonna finish that 350 V8.
543
00:29:59,923 --> 00:30:02,323
- I got shiny things for you.
- I know.
544
00:30:02,383 --> 00:30:04,469
Oh, I'm so pretty. You can see me.
545
00:30:04,552 --> 00:30:05,845
See?
546
00:30:05,929 --> 00:30:08,097
Constance is pretty. You're not pretty.
547
00:30:08,181 --> 00:30:09,182
I'm very pretty.
548
00:30:09,265 --> 00:30:10,141
You're not pretty.
549
00:30:10,225 --> 00:30:13,061
My mother
would never lie to me like that.
550
00:30:13,144 --> 00:30:16,648
She's gonna give it that classic
muscle-car look underneath the hood,
551
00:30:16,731 --> 00:30:20,777
but from the outside, no one is gonna know
it's got that much horsepower.
552
00:30:20,860 --> 00:30:22,362
Whoa.
553
00:30:22,445 --> 00:30:24,322
- Damn!
- Damn.
554
00:30:25,865 --> 00:30:27,659
Ooh, yeah, give it gas!
555
00:30:27,742 --> 00:30:30,203
Yeah! Awesome.
556
00:30:31,246 --> 00:30:32,705
- Nice job.
- High five.
557
00:30:33,122 --> 00:30:34,165
- Great job!
- Nice job.
558
00:30:34,249 --> 00:30:35,667
That's fricking awesome.
559
00:30:35,750 --> 00:30:38,711
So now we'll get all the body panels on it
that Shawn found
560
00:30:38,795 --> 00:30:41,339
and get it over to Gotham Garage
for body work.
561
00:30:46,052 --> 00:30:49,097
Let's get the hood up on a stand,
then Constance can start on this.
562
00:30:49,180 --> 00:30:52,267
- Me and Constance are doing our nails.
- We're having a spa day today.
563
00:30:52,350 --> 00:30:54,352
That would be toenail-size for you.
564
00:31:00,608 --> 00:31:03,862
Now it's time
to complete the disguise.
565
00:31:03,945 --> 00:31:07,740
We're doing the final blocking
and body work before it goes to paint.
566
00:31:07,824 --> 00:31:08,950
I was having more fun...
567
00:31:09,033 --> 00:31:11,327
- With our spa day?
- ...with our spa day.
568
00:31:12,328 --> 00:31:14,539
Hey, this thing is turning out sexy.
569
00:31:14,622 --> 00:31:15,707
In the morning,
570
00:31:15,790 --> 00:31:21,087
it's gonna get that awesome, vintage,
stock-looking two-tone paint.
571
00:31:21,170 --> 00:31:24,340
It is gonna be
the coolest sleeper on the planet.
572
00:31:24,424 --> 00:31:26,551
Grandma's car looks badass.
573
00:31:26,634 --> 00:31:28,845
I'm not gonna give my crew
a spa day,
574
00:31:28,928 --> 00:31:32,140
but they did a fantastic job
with this car,
575
00:31:32,223 --> 00:31:33,808
so after I'm done priming it,
576
00:31:33,892 --> 00:31:35,852
I think I'll give them
the next best thing.
577
00:31:38,563 --> 00:31:40,356
- Oh, why, thank you.
- You're welcome.
578
00:31:41,733 --> 00:31:43,526
Nice to have this thing almost done.
579
00:31:43,610 --> 00:31:45,254
- Looks good.
- Right?
580
00:31:45,278 --> 00:31:47,878
It's come a long way
from that rust bucket it rolled in as.
581
00:31:48,072 --> 00:31:50,217
- You partying without me?
- Speak of the devil.
582
00:31:50,241 --> 00:31:51,659
Look who's here.
583
00:31:52,869 --> 00:31:53,953
Yeah?
584
00:31:54,037 --> 00:31:55,580
Oh, my God, this looks great.
585
00:31:55,663 --> 00:31:57,415
Small block all cleaned up.
586
00:31:57,498 --> 00:31:59,584
- It's got A/C.
- Oh, yeah.
587
00:31:59,667 --> 00:32:03,171
Now we're gonna trade it
for a '71 Blazer, yeah.
588
00:32:03,254 --> 00:32:04,464
You should see the Blazer.
589
00:32:04,547 --> 00:32:06,883
I could tell by that twinkle in your eye
it's a gem.
590
00:32:06,966 --> 00:32:09,844
Oh, I'm twinkling.
The Blazer's a really nice truck.
591
00:32:09,928 --> 00:32:11,179
And then we trade it
592
00:32:11,262 --> 00:32:15,850
for a replica '59 Corvette Stingray
concept car.
593
00:32:15,934 --> 00:32:18,353
That's what I'm talking about.
594
00:32:18,436 --> 00:32:20,897
As long as everything
keeps falling into place,
595
00:32:20,980 --> 00:32:21,980
it'll be like a train.
596
00:32:22,023 --> 00:32:24,108
It'll start to build momentum,
and we'll be golden.
597
00:32:24,943 --> 00:32:27,987
- Where's my beer?
- He knows we're partying without him.
598
00:32:32,825 --> 00:32:35,119
I love this place.
Like a candy store.
599
00:32:36,913 --> 00:32:40,166
I'm on the hunt for chrome bolts
600
00:32:40,249 --> 00:32:42,502
for the bumpers on the Buick.
601
00:32:43,795 --> 00:32:46,381
$5.65 a piece.
602
00:32:46,464 --> 00:32:49,175
That bolt would probably cost you $11
603
00:32:49,258 --> 00:32:51,928
if you were to buy it
at a specialty automotive store.
604
00:32:52,011 --> 00:32:55,264
Or just to have it chromed,
it's gonna cost more than five bucks.
605
00:32:55,348 --> 00:32:58,393
Caveman can buy tires
for him to chew on in the front yard.
606
00:33:01,854 --> 00:33:04,065
"Call me ASAP."
What, something caught on fire?
607
00:33:06,234 --> 00:33:09,112
Hope he didn't blow nothing up.
608
00:33:10,947 --> 00:33:14,158
I need you to get here right away.
There was a accident with the Buick.
609
00:33:14,242 --> 00:33:17,036
- It's bad, man. You got to get here...
- No, it's not.
610
00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:19,264
I need you to get...
You guys gotta get back here ASAP.
611
00:33:19,288 --> 00:33:21,165
See you in two seconds.
612
00:33:27,338 --> 00:33:28,673
You kidding me.
613
00:33:31,843 --> 00:33:34,220
We'll be back.
We got an emergency at the shop.
614
00:33:40,601 --> 00:33:44,480
Slow down. Let us get in.
Let us get in the car. Hold on.
615
00:33:44,564 --> 00:33:46,190
- Hurry up.
- Hold on, hold on.
616
00:33:46,774 --> 00:33:49,277
Hold on, hold on.
Let me get in. Let me get in.
617
00:33:54,490 --> 00:33:57,535
Tony called me that frantic,
which is not like Tony.
618
00:33:57,618 --> 00:34:00,455
All the worst things
that can happen at a shop like mine
619
00:34:00,538 --> 00:34:02,457
are all running through my head right now,
620
00:34:02,540 --> 00:34:05,376
and I just know
I got to get back there as fast as I can.
621
00:34:10,465 --> 00:34:12,675
All right, guys, let's go.
622
00:34:28,441 --> 00:34:29,859
He hit it hard.
623
00:34:30,902 --> 00:34:32,653
You're kidding me, right?
624
00:34:32,737 --> 00:34:35,615
No, we're not kidding you.
You're looking at it, right?
52220
