Speaker: I heard she was there to burn a rubber and make her motors blow So what does school ask her just half as she liked to go? She said I
Speaker: yeah you heard it that's the intro by the marauders um the song is actually called hot rod horror i have a couple of guests tonight we this is the jeff's garage where we're going to be talking about if it fits in your garage if it fits in your shop if it fits in your barn if you use it to work with we're going to talk about it one way or another
Speaker: our loves and hates of L things, tools, cars, trucks, you name it. It's in there. We have on the show tonight, we're going to start from last into first in. We got blazing here on the show. How you doing, buddy? You're muted, by the way. I'm good. I'm here to hold the flashlight past the wrenches and spend all day looking for the 10 millimeter socket. Nice. I love it. I love it. And then we got Benji, my super car guru.
Speaker: because not my forte buddy, but that is 100 % you. You are the, my super car guru because you actually brought up tonight's subject that we're going to be talking about. And then we have our, our resident novice, Steven Jarvis. Uh, he is admitted to himself. He's not the biggest car guy, not the biggest cool guy, but he's willing to learn. So we're going to teach him a few things.
Speaker: So, you know, yeah, I'm just here to hand the parts to everyone, you know, maybe get my hands dirty a little bit. But you know what? Hey, the only thing I know much about cars is seeing them in movies. So there's that. You can be the shop gopher. Yeah. Give him the broom, boys. He's going to clean up the blazing said flashlight or flashlight. Oh, OK. Oh, look at you.
Speaker: So tonight we're going to be talking about, so Benji and I have been talking about this car for a couple of days. We're going to be talking about the Mustang GTD. As you were saying before we started, you didn't know anything about this car. So I'm going to show a couple of pictures here. This is the Mustang GTD. Benji already knows what it costs. So, how much would you spend for this car?
Speaker: How about you? I would spend five bucks. It's probably about $150 ,000 to $175 ,000. Oh, sir, you're so off. It is $325 ,000. That's a kick in the balls. Now, the problem I have with that is, and I brought this to Benji a couple of times,
Speaker: If I show up at a club and Benji shows up in his Ferrari and I'm like, yeah, Benji's like, yeah, I got a Ferrari. I'm like, yeah, I got a Mustang. It's still a Mustang. It could be a V6 Mustang or a $330 ,000 car. That is the problem I have with this car so far. And that's where I disagree. And I get it. I get where you're going. But if you look at it, and I'm going to bring this picture back up, it is just a wide body.
Speaker: on a regular Mustang, however. And not however, it's spelled in capital letters. Yeah, there is an asterisk to that because this has a transaxle. So it has a 50 -50 weight distribution. Now, Steven, you were mentioning something before the show about the Super Stink. Please reiterate what you were saying.
Speaker: I think it's cool and hopefully more powerful than the GTD. But as I was told, it's not. Well, I hated actually pointing that out to you. But the reason why I say that is where the Super Snake, great car, don't be wrong, it's a beautiful car. But all the weight is on the front, much like any other Mustang. The problem with that is it also has that live rear axle.
Speaker: which is, as we all know, mustangs are crowd killers. So it will kill a crowd because the rear end breaks loose. And next thing you know, some guy's face is on your windshield. Um, this is not that because this has a 50 50 weight distribution better stabilization. Yeah. And, uh, for a little bit of specs here, gentlemen, I got it here. Um,
Speaker: It's 5 .2 liter V8 800 plus horsepower from the factory is the estimate. It's not built yet. There's only have the one model. Is that the base? That is the well. Well, I think so. That's probably the only thing you're going to be able to do the option. They're only. Yeah, they're building. They're only building a thousand of these. Oh, wow. And so eleven eighty five or ten eighty five Newton meters of torque.
Speaker: which is insane. That's incredible. Yeah. And it's only 1400 kilos. I mean, that's a Honda Civic, dude.
Speaker: That's that's pretty fast off the line. I wonder what is there any like? 060 time is right here on your screen 3 .2 0 to 100 kilometers, which is 0 to 60 Okay 3 .2 seconds. That's that's a fucking rock ship and top speed is estimated right around 200 miles an hour. Yep now the one thing that
Speaker: that we do not have. That's an asterisk on that, right? Because those are like what it should be, but that car is not. There's an estimated. Either one of those. Right. It's not what the design of this car is for. It's not designed for side speed or zero to 60. Agreed. It is designed for the Nuremberg Ring and your GT style races. GTD actually stands for grand charisma design.
Speaker: So it likes it your your lemons 24 hours your which as we've all said before the show I hope they put it in there because you wanted to make for exciting race. Oh my god but The only problem I have with this car so far Well, it's not the only problem a it's a Ford But but B is they have not put it on lemons or on on Nuremberg ring yet
Speaker: For those who don't know a little bit of specs about the Nurburgring, it is 14 .2 miles long with 154 corners. As close as I'm into that is in Gran Turismo. Agreed. Well, this is not necessarily because you can actually go to Germany and jump on the Nurburgring any day.
Speaker: I think it's like I think it's like a hundred bucks for the day. I think it's cheaper than that. Is it? I think you can just do the one trip and go around it and be done because it's a part of the highway system if you want it to be. Yeah. You can actually see here there's the shape of the Nurburg. There's two shapes. But the bottom bottom picture there, that is the Nurburg ring. You can reach top speeds of like one fifty three two hundred.
Speaker: your power. And then literally have to slam on the brakes because then you got a corner that the fastest anybody's gone around and gone around it is 30. At the end of that 250 mile an hour speed straight away. And that straightaway blazin you mentioned playing on Gran Turismo. That straightaway is
Speaker: crazy because that the corner comes out of nowhere and Anybody's played Gran Turismo or seen the Gran Turismo movie in the Gran Turismo movie that the kid Loses the car as he comes up over the hill. That's on the Nuremberg ring Well, actually when you when you do the research on that movie and
Speaker: I haven't watched it. It's a pretty decent movie. It's a good movie, but it's very, very exaggerated. Just about anything like that is gonna be. Yeah, it's Hollywooded up and I get that, but great movie if you get a chance to watch it. I really enjoyed it. It's a lot better than what I thought it was gonna be. I agree, because when I first saw the trailer, I was like, oh my God, they're gonna fuck it up. But the story is amazing, but you also,
Speaker: getting back to the Nurburgring, he crashes on the Nurburgring because there's a spot where he's doing like, what, 120, 130, and the car goes airborne because he comes up over a crest of the hill. And that is the big danger of the Nurburgring for the estimates on this car is that it's going to be a sub six minute car on the Nurburgring.
Speaker: To put that into context, I went ahead and did a little research. The top fastest times around the Numburgring are on your screen now. Yeah, this is where I don't agree with what their estimates are. Yeah, I'm kind of with you there. The only thing this car has the advantage that some of these don't is the active aero. I'm going to say the torque too, man. The torque is really high. It is. So maybe the torque in the cornering, maybe.
Speaker: I mean to shave 30 seconds off will be a fucking miracle. Are you kidding me? Well, I can see it coming off the line coming out of turns, but the straights know. Well, the only thing is, is they haven't decided if they're going to keep this rear wheel drive or make it all wheel drive. If they make it all wheel drive, it'll be a monster.
Speaker: Because I think do you have to kind of have to keep it all will do you have to go all will try to be able to compete with like, I think so worse GT three GT four. I think you do. I think you do. See, I would agree with that. But it still does not get you. Let's say let's say you get 31 second shape that puts you at 559. Right, right.
Speaker: Dude, the top car is an AMG1. It's like, dude, that thing is designed for this. Well, that's the problem I have with the GT1 is it's literally like Steven said, it's a fucking video game car.
Speaker: Yes, but I still think that that's not even the top car coming out. That's going to. Oh, I agree. I still think the Valkyrie is going to smash it. I think the Valkyrie will, will, will, will take it. Um, but they haven't been, they haven't done the testing for it yet. This is the point. I'm going to hurt your feelings, Benji, because, uh, as much as I think the car is beautiful and it's great, it was designed wrong.
Speaker: One of the things in the design is it does come with a full titanium exhaust. Well, if you buy that car, that means every five years, you're going to have to replace the exhaust. That is a $10 ,000 exhaust. Yeah, but we're not talking about people who are buying this car like you. But I get that.
Speaker: why not day one of buying it switch to a stainless steel exhaust because that would have been better because the problem with titanium exhaust comes down to one thing titanium is not designed to be heated up and cooled heated up and cooled heated up and cooled like if you look at a car that has titanium exhaust after a couple years and there's pinholes all through it
Speaker: Sure. But you could go like Inconel. There's a lot of companies that would be, you could go Inconel exhaust or something like that to save even more weight, the durability. So there's, there's a couple of different things you could do. But again, there's a thousand of these, right? So how many, how many times do you think in five years, those cars? That's the other thing. It's the other thing. This, this is the kind of car that you buy as a collector and it sits there and, and you polish it with a diaper. Yeah, but
Speaker: I dropped the link to the test drive in the chat. Oh, really? Oh, yeah. Yeah. I'm glad you got that. Because I that I was looking for that, but I didn't have time. Let me skip one second. And I didn't mean to cut you off. I was no, no, no, no, no. Oh, let me get this set up. So let me go ahead and share my screen. Hello there. Wrong button.
Speaker: Let me go ahead and share my screen. Because that's the one thing I didn't know they had a trust drive out. So I did. I just didn't send you the link. What an asshole. OK, here we go. Oh, it sounds good. Sounds like a jet fighter. Oh.
Speaker: it's not going very fast no but it's cornering well at that speed it better be cornering good yeah it's clean yeah it does it doesn't look like they're pushing it no this is okay so this is testing too yeah
Speaker: Yeah, okay, so they're just trying to get baselines right Well, they opened it up there for a little bit I miss it's pretty badass car. Yeah, I like your own that
Speaker: You can hear it right there at the end there where I cut it off. Let's take this, for example, like the Valkyrie, right? People are like, oh my God, the sound. Actually, I don't like the sound of it. I don't like to hear that transmission in that car. I don't either. It's like I don't know why people are in love with it. It's like the assholes that put straight cut gears in their transmission so you can hear them shift. I don't want to hear your shift. I want to hear your transmission. I mean, the car is beyond spectacular.
Speaker: But you mentioned that wing. I love the way the placement. Oh, man, that wing is all dude. That is that wing is incredible. But I mean, it's straight up. It's it's a it's a race car. I mean, this is a race car at three hundred and something thousand bucks. I think the value is there and in today's market.
Speaker: I can see that. But in today's market, when you compare what you can get with the Ferrari, that is a Ferrari at the end of the day. I mean, I'm a, I'm a Ferrari. I'm not. I'm, I'm a Lamborghini guy. I'm not the Ferrari yet. So, so even, I think the longterm, you're able to make money on this car.
Speaker: I think so too. I think you'll be able to get the money. I can see that. If you don't drive it or you just, you know, keep it under 10 ,000 miles or whatever, I think you can make money on this car. Yeah, but here's my problem with buying a car and not putting miles on it. That's like not fucking your girlfriend, so the next guy has a good tight pussy. Depends on how much she's worth. I mean, am I wrong?
Speaker: If I put $300 ,000 on a car, I'm going to beat the piss out of it. Yeah, but that's the way we view it on people who, I mean, I'm assuming none of us are multi -millionaires, right? No. It was a multi -millionaire. You'd think I'd be doing these shows. I mean, I'd be owning these shows. I don't want to see a car like that.
Speaker: Rich parts of fucking California, probably. Honestly, not necessarily. You've got guys in Vegas, you've got guys in there's a guy in Texas. He's got like, yeah, he's got like the third largest car collection in the world. And he owns like four airplane hangars that you can put 747s in and they're jam packed.
Speaker: I think the guys who would buy this, this is probably the card that they would take out and beat the shit because they're not wanting to take out their, you know, Ferrari eight, 12 super fast or their, uh, it's, you know, something like ridiculous, like a Koenigsegg or, um, a Valkyrie. So this is kind of kind of how they get the thrills for a third of the price.
Speaker: But on the other hand of that same coin, $300 ,000 for a car, or you do what Weston Chapin did, the guy from YouTube, he took a V6 Mustang, put a 12 -valve Covens in it that's got 1 ,200 horsepower, and he just spent way less than 300 grand. So, I mean... But at the end of the day, what's the resale on that?
Speaker: Agreed. I can see that. If you buy this car, are you really thinking about resale? A guy like me? No. But the guys who can walk in and purchase these cars... Where is that bubble coming from?
Speaker: Is that your own? Yeah, that was on you. That's so weird. That is weird. That's why I keep doing that. But guys who can afford these cars, they're going in. These cars are already going to be bought before they're ever available, right? Oh, I agree. I agree. They're probably already sold.
Speaker: They're interested in the resale value, right? These guys are all about making money, 90 % of the time. Well, that brings me to my question. Do you think Ford's going to do what they did with the new GT? Like you have to be approved. I think these cars are probably mostly allocated.
Speaker: Or I think it was John Cena got in trouble when he tried to sell his GT.
Speaker: He got approved, and he tried to sell it, and Ford was like, what the fuck are you doing? You can't do that. Yeah, but I think this is super common now. Even Tesla started doing this. Ferrari's huge in this. You can't just get an allocation and immediately sell it. Porsche will ding you now because people are trying to get the GT3s, the new ones, and you can't fucking get them. They're allocated. And it's like, oh, well, I'll sell you my allocation. It's like, well, no, no, no, you can't. We can't sell you something, and you turn around and sell it for $100 ,000, $200 ,000 more, and you make the money off of us.
Speaker: OK, I see that point, but the business standpoint, right? The business standpoint. Yes, that makes sense. But fuck you. It's my car. I paid for it. If I want to sell it, I want to sell it. Yeah, but I get it. You get a contract. Again, you get a contract again. I am.
Speaker: I don't like the way they do like some of these, do some of the business, right? Like it's just, Ferrari is probably the worst out of everybody. Jay Leno said he'll never buy a Ferrari because it's dirty. It's dirty. How they do stuff.
Speaker: So when you get to the super limited thousand you know minus vehicles i mean this shit is all allocated dude. As of six days ago the applications to buy one is still open. Okay so so we can pull our money together we buy a tire.
Speaker: Because like they built their one -off wheels you cannot buy those wheels But my thing is is like how many replicas do you think they're gonna make in this car? Like like you and me could actually go build a replica You can go make it look like anything each dealership or a dealership's gonna make a dealership's gonna make 15k on a on each one sold
Speaker: Wow. Yeah. So I don't think the whole point of the dealership is just to bring people into the dealership to buy other cars, right? Because assholes like me, I'll go and just go look at it and then like, Fox, now I got to buy a fucking car.
Speaker: I went to Nissan to look at the GT -R when it came in. I was like, oh my God, they have one. I mean, I immediately went into it this far. Yeah. The Ford dealership here has got a 2020 bullet. And I'm in line to buy it. I put 100 bucks down if I have three years to fully pay for the car or they'll resell it. So they have it on hold for me.
Speaker: You know, it's, it's a mild hold. It's like, they'll call me if somebody's like, Hey, we want to buy it. We got cash. They'll call me like, Hey, you want your a hundred bucks back? I'm like, Oh, geez, like waiting for an organ donation. That's what I said. But the problem, the problem with that car is it's still, it's like 80 grand. Now the chances I'll get a chance to buy it, you know, if everything works out with, with what I got going, yeah, I can buy that car.
Speaker: But if somebody comes in before me, you know, some guy with more money brains, he's like, I need that. So just like this car is three hundred and something thousand dollars. Right. Let's say you get one. What do you think on day one you could sell that car for? I say, oh, easily a million. I say 600 K minimum. Oh, easily. Yeah. You brought your seven, seven fifty.
Speaker: Yeah. So I mean, it's an immediate investment that you could drive on the road, take to the track. It's, it's, it's a way to kind of compete. I mean, this is a smart move for Ford, right? I mean, you've got Mercedes pumping out excellent track weapons. Porsche is just does what Porsche does, right? You have to get in this market. I mean, well, back in the day,
Speaker: yeah i was just about to say look look at how the car look at how ford sold the mustangs back then they knew they had to go over incorrect sir incorrect sir mustangs here i go the history of the Mustang everybody called it a secretary's car well yeah um ken miles was famous for pronouncing that too well well what happened was is carol shelby
Speaker: uh looked at and he was he's like this thing ken miles was a big part of that conversation but but uh they were like yeah get rid of that wimpy six put an eight in it yep and and you know and of course lo and behold back then ford would listen to somebody in the know and they would they built the Mustang now and the Mustang has a there are must there are people out there that are
Speaker: live and die Mustang. I, you know, I get it. I love the Fox body Mustangs. I would love to get another one, but it's one of those things is like, if I never have a Mustang, it's not going to hurt me. I mean, and same thing with this. If I could buy it, if I had the money, I'd go buy one for the resale value. But first I would take a year to beat the piss out of it on the track.
Speaker: Yeah, because that Russia speed and I think we have to kind of look at stuff like this a little different now, too, right? We have to look at this through the age of media and how much coverage things can get and how much more attention it could bring into a brand. Right. And then that that's huge. And well, yeah, it's a it's a win on Sunday sell on Monday kind of concept.
Speaker: correct because they are clearly going after a younger demographics with money European person who who appeals to European cars like me like I think the new Corvette is pretty cool I think it looks a lot like a freaking Ferrari
Speaker: Yeah, it does. And I really like it, but at the end of the day, it's kind of boring. It is, it is. When it first came out, you looked at it for like five minutes and went, yeah, it's cute. Yeah, okay. What's next? It's the last year for the vet, too, before they go to the Nova, or not Nova Chevelle. For Camaro. Camaro, thank you.
Speaker: Yeah. And just like when the retro styling of Mustang and Camaro and all that stuff came out, it was a brand switcher where people started to, oh, wow, the Mustangs look as opposed to the N95 Mustang.
Speaker: the ugliest Mustangs ever yeah but at the end of the day this takes a crazy amount of boxes it does it's I think it's I think it's a badass move for for anyone that well I mean you look at what Ford tried to do with the Mach -E they literally almost lost their that's why they changed everything Mustang Mach -E to the just Mach -E
Speaker: Yeah, well, you ruined a brand that you've been, what, 60 plus years building? You talk about that electric Mustang SUV? Yeah. Yeah, they should have never put Mustang on that thing. I don't know why. And that is the biggest loan, though. It almost killed the Mustang brand right there. So I'll tell you what, that's a good look at SUV, but it is not a Mustang. No, it should have never been. Correct. So they're only going to build 300 to 700 each year.
Speaker: I was reading that they were doing about, oh, each year. Each year. Okay. I think they're going to do a thousand total though. So, so it's probably going to be on the same lines as the GT, uh, the Ford GT. So they're, so they're stopping the Ford GT. So what do you have to do? You have to have an a successor, right? Yeah. So they're probably just converting all that stuff over to the, to the new Mustang, which makes sense. Cause they've staggered that car up for a long time. Well, and you know, unlike Camaro and, and Dodge's Challenger and stuff,
Speaker: Mustang's never gone away. No, nope. And I'm not the Ford guy by any means, but same. And this brings my question. I'm going to ask each of you individually. If you could buy one supercar, would this be it? No. No. No. And I'm not a supercar type of guy. I mean, the question is where if you could only buy one.
Speaker: Right. I mean, I'm going to go in exotic, right? Exactly. That's my point. But we're not their target audience. I get that. I get that. But my point is like, let's say you get a work contract where you're going to make a million dollars a year for the next three years. And they're like, OK, you have to buy an exotic car for said job.
Speaker: Is this the one you are? You have to buy a supercar for that job. Is this the one you buy? Maybe. I'll change my answer. Maybe. And I'll give you the reason why, because everybody on YouTube or around here or just around the United States. But I'll tell you what, I'm driving into Raleigh, North Carolina yesterday, right? Four o 'clock in the afternoon, I pass a Ferrari, a Lamborghini and two Cybertrucks.
Speaker: I didn't, I, I passed zero. Just we'll stick out. So if I could go ahead and be one of the first allocations to get one, why in the fuck would I not do that? Because let me tell you next year, I'm going to have another million bucks. I can buy anything else I want. So you can't sell it. You can't resell it within the first two years. Yeah. And that's, and that's super common. Even, even the new, um, Corvette had a six months policy on that as well, because if you sold it, it avoided the warranty.
Speaker: Really? Correct. Now, I'm the king of void and warranty, but that's ridiculous. You ripped the tags off your mattress. Dude, dude, I'll void a warranty before I leave the fucking lot. Because because like if I buy a truck, I'm like, yeah, I'm not taking it off a lot until there's at least a six inch lift on this pitch, you know, or, you know, of course, the everything, the everything mod that everybody does to a car is rims.
Speaker: You know, rims and tint are usually the first two things done. So, you know, let's do bigger rims or let's do, you know, I love the Krager SS Chrome Max. You know, unfortunately, they don't have that equivalent in big rims, but it's what they do. But not it's not the same. Well, those are Gregors. So and if I this is why I've said multiple times, I'll never buy a new car ever.
Speaker: because I am the king of void and warranties because of the simple fact I can't leave shit alone. I don't want to pull up next to you and we're both driving the exact same car just a different color. I want mine to stick out a little bit more and I get it. That is a good reason to buy that car, but it's kind of the only reason to buy it.
Speaker: So all right, so Ford what was their flagship the Ford GT right at this point? I mean this is coming to the end. It's the end of the run that car is spec fucking tacky like this one's gonna be out for a couple years
Speaker: Oh, it's got to be right because if they're only allocating, you know, they're going to produce, right? So what do you, so what is a smart move to bring people into your business board? The four GT is a million dollar car at this point, and there's nothing you can do to make your car look like that.
Speaker: But now you can create a badass car like this car and then turn around and sell more Mustangs and make your Mustangs you can sell body kits and yeah The spoiler is going to be an issue. You're not gonna be able to just get that spoiler, but yeah Somebody's gonna reproduce it. I guarantee you guys think How okay quick two questions here
Speaker: do you think with this new GTD, do you think it's ready to take on the bigs? Do you think it's ready to take on the Ferraris, the McLaren? Okay, it looks 100 % because it looks fast saying it's still. I mean, once again, look at this thing. I agree. It looks like it's doing 200 miles an hour as it moved.
Speaker: The numbers aren't in yet when it comes to like that test and drive Tested tune that that blazon threw up here That was They weren't beating on it. I mean, you know, that was like the way you drive your grandma's Honda Civic. Yep so If once the numbers come out that that can be answered like if they do a sub they do a sub six or sub six or sub six thirty
Speaker: then it's going to be competitive. I think if it could get in the 640, like the mid to low 640s, that's a fucking weapon. Oh, yeah. Like that car is a fucking weapon, and you don't just jump in a car and drive it like that. You know what I mean? Yeah, you have to know what you're fucking doing. Yeah, correct. Apparently, it produces more downforce at 150 than the 911 GT3.
Speaker: There it is. Like I said, it's got that. It's got that. Apparently the body kit that's on it moves hydraulically. And I think it does. What was that system you guys were talking about before the show? The the STD or whatever. No, no. The what the yeah. DRS DRS. Yeah. I think I don't know. I don't think it has it.
Speaker: but I think they'll probably add it. Like they'll add the race in order for it to be a race car. Yeah. And they'll, they'll probably put this in Le Mans. They'll probably put it in the GT series. You're going to have to, you have to, because that's how they're, that's how it's going to sell. And, and even without seeing any of the numbers, do you think it passes the eye test? Because that's going to be the biggest thing.
Speaker: because now with the GTD if it does really well I don't think Mustang or Ford really thinks anything else other than pimping the shit out of the GTD and when race season comes about I honestly think if this starts doing very well
Speaker: Well, it's got to go against the bigs. I mean, we're creating a replica body kit for this car. Well, yeah. No, I don't think we can honestly say until we see it on the track. I mean, yeah, they have to be out of that. There's test drives and there's tests and tunes, but there's no actual, you know, balls and balls. It's not coming out until 2025, so they still have several more months.
Speaker: Yeah, and are you really going? Are we really going to get the real figures when they finally know? Because they're going to lie. If it does well, they'll undersell it. If it does poorly, they'll oversell it. Well, it's not just that. They're not going to do less than what they're aiming for. So there's no way.
Speaker: I was gonna say as soon as it hits the track Whoever gets a hole is gonna mod it out. Anyway, make it even faster and more torqueier So you're gonna get you're gonna production cars that the people get and then there's gonna be the race car version, right? Just like the GT. Yeah, there's a completely separate car And what are people gonna do? I mean, there's not gonna be an options list. Well, you know, but I mean even a GT 40 had fucking no options, right? I mean
Speaker: Well, if you put a smaller pulley on the supercharger, you're gaining 50, 60, 100 horsepower right there. Yeah, but that doesn't be it. But then you're going to start having to retune all kinds of stuff. You got to think this car, we're not talking about 300 plus on a car. You can't find a guy to help you tune that fucker.
Speaker: You got 300 and something. The last thing you want to do is go retune it. Otherwise, why wouldn't you just go buy a Mustang and then you can rip everything out that you don't want? Put whatever you want in. Exactly. I see that. Yeah, I see where you're going there. But and is it this is one of those cars? We have to think of this car as a supercar. Yeah, you can't. This is not something you modify. And it's not your it's not your average supercar because it's it's right now it's technically one of one.
Speaker: You know what I mean? Yeah, literally. Because they only have one right now. But not only that, it's there's only going to be, what, 300 produced in the first year. And even if they up up production to a thousand a year, no, no, no, it's limited to a thousand.
Speaker: So they're not going to produce more than that. So that's why they stretched this process out. Just like they did the GT. I mean, they produced a bunch of them, let's say, in three years. But there's still no hype, you know what I mean? You got to slowly put these things in. You got to think, some of these cars are... I'm just curious on what the R &D budget was for this car.
Speaker: That's what whatever the race car budget was, right? Well, yeah. Well, yeah, I mean, this this car is ultimately going to be their their money making car, hopefully. But but does the rule of GT still exist that you have to produce so many cars of that car to race it? Well, it's going to be in the European race series, so you would have to look at standards.
Speaker: Right. I'm assuming this is, I mean, how many GT racetracks we have? We have Coda. So what do we have, like, three, four racetracks here? Yeah, five if you're pushing it.
Speaker: Yeah. But you go to like the European France, Saudi Arabia, all that. I mean, there's fucking tracks everywhere. Agreed. It's become all about this now. Not necessarily. The sad thing about the whole thing of racing now is that most of your car owners aren't really caring about
Speaker: They want their car to produce but at the same time if it ain't bringing in this and that's the Any sporting team I was gonna say that about anything but the thing is is the the people build this The people that are in the pits the people that are designing it these are the guys that actually make it work and and they They give a shit way more than the people paying for it
Speaker: The people are like, hey, we're going to make how much of this? Here's the money, boys. Bill, go away. You know, at the end of the day, so take that. So what you just said. So the people who give a shit about it because their names on it. That's right. They care. They're in front of the cameras. They're in front of their peers. And it's like, my dick is on the line. Let's go. Yeah. And then put it all out there. So I'm excited. I'm excited to see Ford. I'm curious to see how well it does. Like I said, I have another spec sheet here.
Speaker: I'm sitting here scrolling through comments and I see one that actually puts in what Benji was saying. Unfortunately, no matter how excellent it might be, it's likely the vast majority will be bought by people who treat their cars as an investment rather than anything you would have to bid actually drive. So yeah, yeah.
Speaker: And that's that's that's that's the one problem and I get it, you know, it's 300 ,000. We all don't have that kind of money to throw away. So I was it's it's going to be north to 300 ,000. I was looking at it's like being at 350 up to 390. So, yeah, it's well, and then you got to worry. Yeah, I mean, that's that's actually not a bad spot for them to be in a limited vehicle.
Speaker: Right. But once again, if you and I are going to buy a supercar that we're going to use,
Speaker: We're not going to get a chance to buy this. Like if we got a million dollars right now, we would be on like year four or five at that. Exactly. We have to start out with the Ferraris, the Lamborghinis, which is fine. Don't get me wrong because Lamborghinis, I was a beautiful cars lately. Ferrari's got some beautiful cars as even though they're Ferraris. Um, and you want to talk about somebody that don't get a cease and desist letter. If I buy a Ferrari, they'll give me a cease and desist letter before I sign the line.
Speaker: Like the beaver you real quick, huh? Yeah. Yeah. Well back for the simple fact, you know Ferrari Whistling diesel bought that Ferrari where he's in a 488. He's beaten of shit out of it They didn't get him because he did one thing. He didn't fuck with the badge And my first thing is that car, you know that right?
Speaker: No, no, no, he sold it because he destroyed it. It lit on fire. Yeah. He's driving it through a cornfield like an idiot. You know, and have you ever seen the there's a YouTube channel. Nobody knows whose it is. It's called Tax the Rich. I've heard of it.
Speaker: They take they take these fucking cars that you and I were you know poster walk walk most her cars and They take it and they rallied the shit out of nobody knows who's this and they they just posted a new video like three months ago and I Think whistling diesel was trying to do something like that with his Ferrari and it caught fire and
Speaker: You know, and it burnt to the ground, you know, but oh, it was beautiful. But when it comes to these cars, you know, this is not something that if you win the lotto tomorrow, you're not buying this next day. It's not going to happen. Well, what doesn't even exist yet, right? Well, no, but you know what I mean? Like you want to be considered for the list of the first 400 cars because they're not getting it. Yeah, it takes it takes some pretty massive pull.
Speaker: I mean, again, again, why would they give it to someone like us? Like they give it to someone like the Stradman whistle. Hey, Leno. If he was still alive. Correct. They need people to get out there who has huge names so people can see this part and to sell the later versions of this car that's going to come out. And to be honest, it's probably not a bad idea to get one of the later versions. I was just thinking the newer. You're going to get all that stuff at the end.
Speaker: Yeah, I will. I don't want the first gen. I honestly don't want a first gen of anything. Well, with the exception of like, there's a couple of classic first gens that I'm like, yeah, I'm in. But like a cool window. Yeah. Oh, God. 63 is that what the screen, the nineteen three four vet splint window is the most beautiful Corvette ever built. Nobody can tell me different. I'll die on that hill. I won't tell you different because I agree with that.
Speaker: I actually buddy mine had one the first Corvette I've ever seen in person and I instantly fell in love with it and he still owns it this day and it's super rare in its It's probably one of the most sought -after Corvettes I would assume It is like one year because after that they were like the government's like no you can't do that. Yeah But it's one of those things is like you can replicate a split window
Speaker: The 64 and 63 are basically the same car except for that rear window. Yep. So, you can do it, but it's asterisks.
Speaker: But so the Ford Mustang GDD super fun car is super interesting. I think it ticks a lot of boxes for the American market that the Europeans gets. I think it gets us. I think you I think it'll be shown up in Europe a lot once it gets it does and I hope it brings some of the
Speaker: And I'm a huge, I like F1. I get up early on Saturdays to watch GT Racing on YouTube because it's always live. I really want that market to come to America. I think I'm missing out massively the shit that they have in the European market with racing and the driving legacy we do not have here in the States at all. Here's the problem. Here's the problem with US racing.
Speaker: For the law like in the in Europe you won't find drag racing like you do here in the States It's a but you won't find them go around in the circle making left turns over there because because it's boring the problem with a European style racing is in if you're watching on TV Yeah, you can see every curve But if you're there you get to see a car every couple seconds as opposed Yeah, and then you got five minutes where you don't see shit so
Speaker: in person it's kind of sucks but on tv oh and you'll the american cars are basically built to go straight we get that
Speaker: We don't have the engineering level of detail that those European. Well, I mean, we didn't even have it back in the sixties, but you had a man by the name of Carol Shelby. That's like, if you're going to compete with some of those European cars, you have to make a car that is like a European car. And that's why the GT 40 was one of, at the time of that rivalry.
Speaker: could push the Ferrari more than the Ferrari could push it. The only thing about the GT 40 is brake failure. No, I think I think America does have it. I think America does have the engineering scruples to to make more. But but they target. Yeah, but they target what's popular here in the state.
Speaker: Yeah. And they don't care about what's popular over there. See, I don't think that's the case anymore because we deal with social media now. You have so much young money and young money is looking at Ferraris, Lamborghinis, and all this. Like even Aston Martin that came out with the Valkyrie AMG GT black series. These cars are massive. Jaguar's got that new, Jaguar's got that new four door.
Speaker: It's a monster. It's like number 12 on the Nurburgring. It's a jack. So what do you do? You bring the European market in -house, right? You bring it here. It just means American tastes are changing. The problem is the big three doesn't keep up with it. That's why people, that's why, you know, you'll always have guys, you'll always have guys that'll buy the American muscle.
Speaker: Yeah, but those same guys given, you know, and I'm I'm I'm an American muscle guard guy. I love you know, the sound of that GTD sounds amazing. Like a damn forced induction air. Well, that's amazing. But then you listen to, you know, like Ferrari, they got that flat plane engine that it's got a sweet sound to it. It's go.
Speaker: it's 180 degrees from what a v8 sounds like in a forced induction so it it's it's hard to explain it's like the the american muscle cars cannot compete
Speaker: per se with european cars even even like the that jag that jag is basically a it's a road style race car but it looks with everything you're saying it's like a fucking board torus 100 but but it's like uh in in i think it's number three in front wheel uh no it's all -wheel drive um road cars it's like number three on the nurburgring
Speaker: I don't know, man, you get into like, you can't, you can't put a Camaro on, on the Nurburgring and even close to closely compete with. They'll just build a VW Beetle to smoke your ass. It's true. They do, man. I mean, those cars are so freaking balanced. They could throw a turbo kit, bigger transmission, and you can't keep up.
Speaker: And that's the thing, because a lot of those vehicles deal more with aerodynamics than what our vehicles do. So over there, they deal with driving on all those conditions and blah, blah, blah. And they have that here. So that's kind of a design for there. And we have our cars designed for here. But all this new money, all this younger money coming up, kind of like our age group is all this money. We're watching all these European videos. It's like, oh, you know, back when we were little kids, it's like,
Speaker: Ferrari was you never saw one right now. They're every day now, you know, it's like it's no big deal I guarantee you next year you go to a car show that's primarily Ford Mustangs and you'll see a GTD. Oh, yeah, so what do you do? So so if you can't afford the GTT, which I get it. So what's your alternative? What's your alternative?
Speaker: I know, I know. Lambo replica. Well, I mean, talking about, like, if you want to be like, I want you wanted a supercar. No, no, not even a supercar. Let's just say I want a high end Mustang. I am. Well, I mean, I. Do you remember the 1999 N95? I'm going into the store in the bottom.
Speaker: Dark horse there you go And that is a fantastic looking it does look nice But but as Stephen was talking about that that super snake Which which literally comes it's a it's a It's another way off Shelby it that's no no no no no no no cuz Shelby America is part of that super snake and Right but
Speaker: Why wouldn't you? Shelby America is still up and running. Well, I understand that. But at the same time, it's you can't literally say like they could back in the old days when a Shelby car came out. Carol Shelby had fucking had his fingers on everything. I get it. Yeah. But it's just a pimp out job. Shelby, Shelby, Shelby America, Shelby America still has a production team that thinks like Carol.
Speaker: Well, and you have to. You have to have like Dale Earnhardt, Incorporated, but you don't. Yeah. You know, Dale's been dead a while. I'm just saying. But like juniors trying to get that company back. And then you got fucking shit. What's the other one? St. Lean. St. Lean. Yeah. Like they're way more rare.
Speaker: Are they even still around anymore? I haven't seen a saline since early 2000s. That's because there's like 20 plus million dollars to own one now. And then on top of that, you got Hennessy. That's the one we got to talk about next time, dude. Hennessy's got that. They just did something big. Yes, they did. What, three days ago? I think it was like two or three days ago.
Speaker: Yeah. I do not understand. I will say this right now. I do not understand why that car does not get more love in America. Here's the problem. Hennessy is known, but by car guys.
Speaker: Yeah, they don't have a big enough name. They're not Shelby looking incredible. Oh, they're insane. They are. But like like Jeff said, it's a car. That's most of these cars are a car person's wet. No, no, no, no, no, no, because like Mike knows what a Shelby is. But if I pulled up in a saline, he'd be like, so you bought a fucking Mustang? I'm like, but it's a saline.
Speaker: But see, you told your kids about that. No, no, no, no. My kids have ridden. My buddy that used to live across the street, he had a replica of a cobra. It was a replica. He built it himself. And it was the closest replica, like the day he pulled in with it, I was like,
Speaker: I said two things, no way the fucking thing is real. And if it is, I'm going to hurt the guy because he had a dirt bike in his passenger seat. And so and the and I went over there, I was like, dude, tell me that thing's not real. And he's like, oh, no, no, I built it. I said, OK, because I was going to have to hurt you. You're six. I'm going to have to kill you because he literally and he's kind of a big guy. He literally lifted his dirt bike out of the car and
Speaker: The first joyride my kids ever got to do was in that car. He was like, here, take your kids for a spin. And I was like, get in, boys, because here we go. And when we got back, I had to buy the guy a new tire set because he's like, don't baby the fucker. Well, you're not supposed to. And not only did did my wife yell at me, but the HOA yelled at me and.
Speaker: And the cops followed me into the parking area. And they're like, dude, what are you doing? I'm like, dude, test driving? We're booting. You know? Do something you wish you could. But, you know, so my kids, you know, they saw it and they're like, dad, what is that? I said, it's Cobra. Like, what's Cobra? It's just Shelby Cobra. It's, you know, it was originally an AC, which is a European car. Carol Shelby bought it. And I basically went over the story of the AC Cobra.
Speaker: and or the shelby cobra and so they know that they know shelby because of that car but saline yes they do have their own cars but like what's it what's it that saline uh um the the one s7 the s7 yeah that's the one the one that you see in bruce almighty
Speaker: That's a $20 million car. That's a $20 million car. It's not something you're going to see on the road. And if you do see one, it's going to be under glass. Yeah, it's going to be under glass. And if you touch it, there's a security guy there who's going to shoot you. Yep. Or you or you know, the chic, the rainbow chic. That guy's got three of them.
Speaker: Have you heard of this guy? Yes, and he's yeah, that's what with this like fucking 800 car collection or some shit. No, he has 800 Mercedes SL 600. Yeah, like I've heard of this guy and it's at this point. It's it's hoarding, right? That's not even a client. It's hoarding. Well, the thing is a he's got more money in brains. But when he bought those Mercedes wheel money, it is. But
Speaker: But when he bought those Mercedes Mercedes had to shut down production for everybody else in the world for like a year because he wanted one of them like 90 percent of time when like Ferrari Lamborghini any of those guys Like the first ones are produced have to go to them Oh, yeah, that's like that's just how it works. No matter what they always get one of the first ten but
Speaker: I mean, that you can actually suppose you can actually go and do a tour of that guy's facility. And I would love because he has a car. It's a car. It's actually a Dodge Power Wagon that has a living room in the driver's seat. So it's kind of like the double. It is a whole house.
Speaker: there there's a Lamborghini the was a double eight or seven what is what is the SUV they have they've got one itself for your in Europe that's got like a full like you shape couch in the back.
Speaker: I've seen that. I've seen it too. I just can't remember. It's been a while since I've even thought of that vehicle, but it's like they did is it was actually for one of the sheets and they extended it the rear so much longer so they could put the U shaped thing in the back like the U shaped couch. Is this really cool? So this I found a picture and this is not the greatest picture. Is it the monster?
Speaker: This is the Rainbow Sheik's Dodge Power Wagon. It's like a 49. And it's sitting next to a Toyota truck. Oh my God. Jesus. It actually has a 350. Did you notice the truck underneath it? Yeah. You can see right behind the tire.
Speaker: You see that set of stairs. This guy apparently loves the Dodge Power Wagon, and he built this thing so he can actually drive it out into the desert. Now, its max speed will shock you. It does 10. I don't even know how it does 10. Well, it actually runs at 350 Chevy.
Speaker: It runs a 350 Chevy and it's got a custom transmission that will go over the dunes and it'll take it out of the middle desert. And it's a house that the cab is a house. And in the bed, in the pool. Fucking house. Are you kidding me? And this the rainbow chic will have it drove out to the desert. Then his buddies and their girlfriends or whatever will go out and fucking AMG Mercedes wagons. Dude, that thing is like half a acre water. Yeah, it's huge.
Speaker: What the fuck the thing is like four stories in the air and half an acre long. It's insane. I never even seen that. Every time someone goes over to the Sheik's house, they're like, hey, nice truck. Oh, that's just my lawn ornament. That's the picture you see above it. There's three trucks under it.
Speaker: Yeah. Oh, yeah. I see that. The red truck you see in the background is a is a fire was the Ford F550 or something like that. Yeah. Yeah. Something like that. Yeah. So you were talking about custom tires on a GTD. Look at them fucking things. I know. Right. Like a whopping 10 miles an hour. Bob Chandler is literally looking at those tires, boys, and blushing. Yeah. I don't even know how to comprehend that truck.
Speaker: Oh, I want to do a full episode on our collection because there's videos of his car collection and it's insane. We should do an episode. How could my boggling? It's a truck, but just think of the sheet metal work that had to go into making that. I think it's got like 40 million in it. It's got like 40 million in it. Dude, you're getting a fucking windscreen the size of a movie theater.
Speaker: But yeah, but we're talking about who owns it. A chic. Rainbow. Rainbow chic. He's he's he's the one that built Dubai. Okay. Yes. Whoo. He's when he got bored. He had his name. He bought excavators and had his name written in the desert 40 miles long.
Speaker: So this is what happens when you take oil and base it off the U .S. currency and then both of them skyrocket and this is how you get all the money. He's literally over there going like, hmm, what law and ornament do I need now? But it's like, if you're friends with this guy, he's like, yeah, I'm sick today. Here, buddy, go take a car for a spin. He doesn't hand you keys to the car. He hands you keys to the garage, the garage.
Speaker: is literally it's it's six warehouses bigger than any walmart ever and then it's got a 10 -story elevator with 15 cars per elevator lift and the elevator fits a car that you can take out and then ride on the road
Speaker: I wonder how many of those just don't see the light of day. You know what I mean? I'm sure there's a couple. Oh, yeah. There's so many you cannot get to them. No. The worst offender of not touching their cars is assault number nine. I don't know if you've seen the videos, but somebody found his car collection in the middle of fucking jungle somewhere. And some of the cars, they're beautiful. They're gorgeous. But they're molding.
Speaker: because he doesn't have staff taking care of him. So they are basically ruined. That's an insult, man. That's just - Yeah, like why in the f - Sorry for the language, but why in the fuck would you buy that many cars and all of a sudden be like, you know what? I have so much money. I'm not going to fucking touch a single one of them. He's a dictator and he puts the dick in dictator.
Speaker: Because you just don't care. You have that much money. What do you even care about? But for these guys buying a car like that is like you and I buying a pack of fucking gum. Truth.
Speaker: True. Do you cherish your pack of muck, muck and bubble yum? No, you toss it in the seat of the car. It's in your pocket, goes to the washing machine three or four times. You pull it out of your pocket and go, fuck, I got gum on my pocket. You don't care. It's like a tube of ChapStick. You buy one. Shut up, Glenn. Every time you need ChapStick. No. Somebody brings us back to that Ford. Again, we're not their market, right? It's their market.
Speaker: You know what? I just now looked at all the comments. I just did too. I can't speak any of the comments. You guys have to fill me in on them. Well, so Leggy's here. Hey, Leggy. It came back saying there's a damn sand tires. Yeah. Yeah, those tires don't look like they they'd get a lot of traction over dunes. Well, well, yeah, but you gotta remember sanding. I guess it don't matter.
Speaker: sand dunes the problem with sand dunes is they move a lot yeah you know and so that those those tires they have a giant footprint i'm i'm sure and footprint is key in the sand you know you mean the one -story house they're sitting on yeah pretty much and i'm sure there might even be taller than that it might be closer to three stories i would love to know the gear ratio for that fire
Speaker: I guarantee those tires are two stories tall. Oh, yeah, they got to be two stories tall. I wonder if there's a specs on that. There probably is. But I mean, at the same time. It is a 1950. Actually, here I found it here, boys. Jesus Christ, man. This doesn't even make sense.
Speaker: I thought the Ford 750, that one they came out with like the earlier mid 2000s was stupid. This thing is just retarded. This is like getting sense. Look at this thing. There's the rear end. That's next to a person. That's like you driving over a bug.
Speaker: There's probably a hundred thousand dollars worth of paint. That is a fucking, that is a fifteen hundred Chevy C -10 underneath. Look at the size of that rinses plate. I know, it's just about, it's a damn billboard. Yeah. There's a hundred thousand dollars worth of paint on it. Easy there K -Mag, we acknowledged you. Oh, I'm way better than everything. Good Lord.
Speaker: Could you imagine the wiring that has to go into this thing? Right? Miles and miles. Like everything has to be beyond custom made for this. The radiator, you know, it's like, oh, it takes four gallons of oil or it takes like four quarts of oil. This thing takes 40. Yeah. No, no, no. You said it was just a regular engine in it. Well, yeah, it runs a 350. But I don't know how to run a diesel engine in this thing.
Speaker: I wouldn't surprise me if they do, but the last I heard it was a diesel, it was a Chevy 350, because apparently this guy's a huge Chevy guy. You know, if you have any motors, you put in those little racetrack cars. Imagine running that into a regular car. Yeah. Yeah. Wow. Jeff, I've never seen that before. That's my argument, actually. There's full episodes of different shows.
Speaker: that I've seen in the past that are fucking about the rainbow chic in his collection. Like I said, look him up. Yeah, he's kind of insane. He's OK. But like I said, I want to see if I can find his collection. I want to find out how many cars he has in his collection. I know it's a lot.
Speaker: His name's the Rainbow Sheik. I don't know. Great song. Great song. Oh, like he pulling out the Southern Rock references. Yes, she is. Good for her. So he has a pyramid of his vehicles. She come on his vehicles in a pyramid. Yeah, well, no, the his building that he keeps them in is a pyramid. That's what I just said.
Speaker: I got to present this. Before I show this screen, how much would you say his car collection is worth based on that one vehicle? I'm just going to throw a number of $400 million. $770 million. Steven? Price is right. Got to be worth millions. I'm not even going to touch it. I would have paid $1.
Speaker: I mean, Benji's probably on the money with it. Holy fuck, dude, we were both way off 20 billion. And that's a Guinness. Did that say it's a Guinness World Record? I'm just I'm over here. What the actual fuck? It's sitting next to a Rubicon.
Speaker: That's not, see, we can call them anything we want, but that's not a, that's not a real vehicle, right? I'm saying the money going in, the money going in and into his collections just disgustingly too much. So just imagine that that's his collection. What else the rest of his life has, right? I do. That motherfucker don't have 10 wives. That's got motherfuckers. I got 100 billion wives. Is he the one that lives in this house? Is that a fucking Dodge?
Speaker: Jesus, not right. See, you see, you can call that hummer a hummer, but at the end of the day, it's a kit car, right? Oh, obviously. Oh, yeah. I mean, so I mean, that's a hummer. I think Americans are living a wrong life. There's one of the trailers. The fuck is that supposed to look like something that opens the world on the moon?
Speaker: That's the world. He owns the world right there. But with this car collection being estimated at 20 billion, he probably does. That's right. You just have to say this real quick. Check Max. There's his Jeep. So he just has a staff that just built him just random vehicles. The world's biggest. What the fuck is that? Fuck, dude, it looks like half a fucking train. This looks like something awful like Snowpiercer.
Speaker: Yeah. Or like Transformers. 10 .8 meters long. That thing is. I was going to make a transformer remark earlier about the new Corvette. It looks like it's Stingray. This would inject it with transformer DNA. Yeah, doesn't it? That's a regular Hummer next to his Hummer. Told you it's a Hummer with a happy ending. Yeah. Yeah, that's a Hummer on like 50 pounds of Viagra, boys.
Speaker: I'm being the V standing for Viagra. The dude is nuts, man. He's got just an insane collection. So I didn't read that whole comment. Oh, sorry. Yeah, I just think they're next to some tiny people. They're not. And I got to say, there's got to be a little bit better here. I'm not really into that because it's it's. It's goofy, right?
Speaker: When you have that money, what else can you fucking do with it? Feed people? Yeah, well, yeah, that's because that's how they got rich, you know. Yeah, I don't. I don't know, I think it's to remember, though, he's got he's got like 200 million miles of desert he can go play it.
Speaker: Again helping out the people is like hey you see this new big Hummer go sit down in front of it And I'll show you what it can do That'll end starvation if they're all dead like I'm not into it I understand I get it like I'm just not into it. Yeah, no My new wish list car in his collection it's loading now
Speaker: I need one. Why is it on blocks? Well, I think it's under construction because that's what you have to do in order to put them tires on. Yeah, I think that they had just put the tires on or it's under construction. But so clearly at this point, this guy's going to talk about the regular version of cars. He just uses those to build bigger scale cars. Well, yeah, he's like, hmm, that's very smart guy. That same kind of Mercedes.
Speaker: He has like 400 of them. This dude is the whistle and diesel of the Middle East Mac is like Bigfoot never heard of that vehicle before look at my monster truck This is literally what he's doing is building monster trucks just out of shittier vehicles Yeah, well not necessarily because like well actually I found a picture of his
Speaker: his rainbow cars, he calls them. You know, I mean, I'm assassinated by the shop for this or the chic for this, but you have to have the tiniest of dicks to do what he's done to some of these vehicles. That looks like that. You know what? You can have the tiniest dick, but he's got all the pussy I guarantee you.
Speaker: Well, yeah, exactly. Oh, because of the fucking billions. Here's the thing, though. Yeah, I don't think it's little dick energy like if it was you and me and we got money. Oh, dude, that's a little dick energy. I'm glad you had money, but not me and me a blazer down here. But but but this guy's had money since birth. He's bored. There's nothing to do with little dick energy. And he's got the biggest sandbox.
Speaker: Yeah, he's got a big sandbox. You know, I guarantee you, he's bought one of them fucking dump trucks that you see the biggest dump trucks in the world that use for mining. He's probably got one of those. He's like, I'm bored. I'm going to drive that fucking six story things. He's that. I think that's what's that that power wagons based on. I think that's what the frame is.
Speaker: It's because you can only document so many parts, right? He's the guy that shows up to an auction knowing that he can buy everything, but he lets everyone else bid just that he can be that day. It's like, well, I let them try. Here's all my money. I'm buying the auction right now. And he's that guy that shows up shows up to the playground freaking sandbox with a Tonka toy and kicks all the hot wheel collectors out. Yeah. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker: We've all seen them not to change the subject but Steven brought up auctions We've all seen the movie Joe dirt. Yep Joe dirt drives a Roadrunner in that movie. It's a piece of shit. It just sold at auction anybody know the price the one from the movie I've been guessing wrong. So I'm gonna say I'm gonna say 80 grand. I'm gonna say 200 million I
Speaker: I'm gonna say... You're over. You're over, buddy. I've been up it under all fucking... I mean, at least he's on brand tonight. I mean, he's going over. I'll say 554. Love you, blazin'. It went for 300.
Speaker: I got you 300, 300 grand. I'll go say three. Which one sold it? Bear Jackson or? It sold it. Bear Jackson. Well, of course, it's going to go more than that shit. It was the movie cart. It does run better than it did in the movie. They, you know, they tuned the motor. They detuned it for the movie or actually added a fact. Facts on facts, AMAG.
Speaker: But the thing when it comes to that mode that that car is That car if you fix it up granted, it's a movie car. You probably shouldn't touch it. But if you fixed up to stock level Whatever you put in it, you're gonna get out of it when you reach out. Yeah, because those those old dodges You can buy one fix it up destroy it and
Speaker: Fix it up again and then sell it and get every dime back. Do you know what that car reminds me of? It was like 60 years before it's time. It reminds me of the Asian market now where they do those dramatic wings and things like that. And that's what the car is. I don't know what that culture that seems called. It's called. It's called. Oh, it starts with bees. Booze. Booze is Oco or something. Yeah, yeah, you're exactly right. But that's what that car reminds me of. But like 60 years before it's time. Well, did you guys see what the original
Speaker: Bullet Mustang went for at auction. I thought it went for like like one point two. Yeah. And Steve McQueen actually offered the guy that owned that car more money than what he got at the auction. And the guy still said no. There it is. Jackson. I love that it's the same color. I get looked at. They didn't change anything, but they fixed the motor. Yeah. That's amazing.
Speaker: That had the 440 in it, too, right? Yeah. Yeah, that's it. Well, no, I think I think it didn't because if it would have had the 440, we're going way more than three, three hundred in the card that it had the 440. Or was that the one that he had before? No, no, because the one he was trying to buy out of the salvage place had the 440. Yeah, that's one. It was a it was a it was also a roadrunner.
Speaker: I believe it was a roadrunner. Barracuda. It was the Hugger Orange. Leggy, where are you at on Friday Night Show? That's the Friday Night Show, buddy. Saturday. Oh, I'm sorry. No, no, that's Glick's House of Music. Oh, yeah. You're totally right about that. Oh, sorry. It was a GTX convertible. Wow.
Speaker: He shows it. That's the one I show up in the end of the movie. I got a picture of it, too. But yeah, I'm surprised that's never come back. Well, the problem with the GTX is it's not. There's only two movies that I can think of that actually show that Plymouth GTX. That is the same boy. Tommy boy. Yeah, he was the Plymouth GTX same model here. I believe it was probably the same car. They just painted it.
Speaker: Because I still love when he put he forgets to latch the hood because he put the fucking movie nights a Sunday But it but It's the the GTX is it was a nice car. It's a beautiful car but and yes, it did come with a 440 with the six -pack but
Speaker: It wasn't as popular as the Chargers and the Challengers. No. Even the Challenger back in the day, which was a shorter version of the Charger, to be honest, were badasses. They're not beloved now like they were back then, but those things were awesome. I think it was the first two seasons of the Dukes of Hazzard, Daisy Duke drove a Challenger that would have smoked the General Lee
Speaker: But the generally was the hero car. First, she drove the guys crazy. Then she drove the. Yes, yes, this is not anymore. She don't. Please, I'm not a question or something. I answer. I answered it in chat. What do you say? What do you say? I miss that. All I heard was Leggy, but I missed what you said. This sucks. I have Wi -Fi to be able to see the the comments. Yeah.
Speaker: But like I said, the beauty of car collections is you get these, you know, like if I had a car, like I'm assuming if Benji, if you had a car collection, it would be mostly supercars. It would be. I would have probably eight percent supercars.
Speaker: I would have such a weird collection because like I'm the kind of asshole that I don't know if you saw it. There was a couple of years when you remember the Ford Focus when they first came out the little hatchback. Yep. They you could buy a kit to put a 350 in it. Are you kidding me? I make a real drive. So I went to not be 2000 in Atlanta, Georgia and I watched three of them drive by and I was like, how fucking cool is this? I want one. It's not something they're not. They're a dime a dozen, but
Speaker: I want one and then I want to put the 351 in it, you know, make it a bad ass. But but that's what my collection would be. It would be just weird as cars. Like I want the car from from National Foods vacation. Oh, the cruiser or not the cruiser. It's called it's called the.
Speaker: Oh, fuck. What the fuck is it called? See, I don't like the DeLorean like the one. Yeah. Oh, 100 percent. Those would be there, too. See, that's that shit. I'd buy like Hollywood famous cars like the DeLorean fucking Batmobile from the city. Don't go for there's a guy. There's a guy from from Ohio. He has the Michael Keaton style Batmobile. Well, you know, you know, NFL, well, former NFL quarterback Doug Flutie, he has the original
Speaker: Well, not the original, but one of the replicas of the Batmobile from the TV show. I think the real one's like rotting out in the field or something, isn't it? Yeah. Yeah. I think so. Yeah. Well, even the DeLorean, there's a show on HBO. I think it's called Back in Time, where Christopher Lloyd and this other guy try to find the original DeLorean. Yes, a guy from Expedition Unknown.
Speaker: Yeah, and they they not only find it in the back lot of Universal somewhere and it was sitting on where people could see it But people were stealing parts from it all the time And so they rebuilt it and now it sits and fully restored. What was the chassis for the? Michael Keaton one was that a Chevy Lumina?
Speaker: No, it was they I believe that would have the Chevy Lumina I don't think was out then. No talking what mid Michael Keaton 1989 Batmobile. Was it 89? I thought it was 87. 89. Okay. Was he that was the first Tim Burton one. And I thought it was a Lumina, but I could be wrong. Boy, I think they're going to remake that one or something. I just heard.
Speaker: And Michael Keaton signed on. Michael Keaton's coming back. Michael Keaton's coming back as bad for one more time. So, don't say what frame it was, but it was 260 inches long, 94 inches wide, 51 inches tall, 0 -63 .7, 530 horsepower. Different real specs on this thing? These are real specs. Yeah. Because... Holy fuck! For 1980, man! Be capable of a turbine engine out of a Rolls Royce helicopter.
Speaker: Um, I don't see a lot of people. I think it's because the Batman because he he was the very first on screen Batman in a movie. Correct. Unless you count like the serials back in the day. No, I don't count like Adam West or anything like that. You're talking about movie. Well, I'm talking the serials like back in like the 30s.
Speaker: no i don't count that either 1500 foot pounds of boost in that fucking thing so this is the real legitimate fucking specs for 1989 not the one they used in the movie oh no no when they when they built the one for the movie when they built one for the movie it it ran a 350 Chevy because it had to be reliable but
Speaker: when they when they designed it the designers were like Tim Burton was like hey you guys are the car guys just make your wish list and then the the stunt drivers and the the builders were like yeah we can't do that because it's not reliable we'll take what you guys wrote down here and put it in reality so uh
Speaker: I guess like 20 years ago, the specs were released where people were like, this is what it was supposed to have. And then there was a bunch of builders that found those specs.
Speaker: Hey, buddy, I got an idea. Let's do it. And they built the actual one. So there's a guy technologies come a long ways. Dude, I've got I've got several good topics we can do for future episodes. Well, like a lot of people didn't know that. And I know this is probably a for a Sunday show, but a lot of people didn't know that in order to speed up the Batmobile in the TV show coming out of the cave, they did it in reverse. Yeah.
Speaker: Yeah, well yeah round it so it looked like it was coming out faster Because the the adam west batmobile was basically a fucking lincoln and it swayed more than my house And it was not fast Like I think its top speed was like 70 I was building the actual model of that car until they decided to say well we're going to delay it because of You know a lot of people on that
Speaker: Yeah. And I cry because I'm like, well, I'm not waiting for you to come back. There's a company. You guys know who Adam Savage is? Yeah. And I'm going to do a whole episode on Adam Savage because there's something about that dude when he's building on YouTube, he just turns his camera on and starts building. He was in MythBusters. Why does that name sound familiar? MythBusters. He was the glass guy. I was the glasses guy. He's got a YouTube channel called Tested.
Speaker: And he builds he builds movie props. He's got a thing for boxes. I don't get it. But he'll build a box for his hat or something like that. But he's meticulous. And the one of my favorite things to watch and do is shop infrastructure, because he's got his shop is not bigger than my. It's maybe two of my bedrooms, which is that very big. But
Speaker: Uh, he's doing something similar. What Steven's doing with that Batmobile, but he's got the Ecto one version. And it is, it is one eighth scale. It's like this. Damn. Every week new parts come in and he built it. I, and he builds it live. He does a live feed as he's building it. He talks about stuff. And then he does some of the most amazing weathering.
Speaker: on stuff like he'll he'll he'll customize yeah he he i think yeah he he's in a hotel so he's got a reception too fair enough but but i want to do an episode about adam savage because when he builds like go on to youtube put in tested and look at some of his videos
Speaker: I've watched it before. It's been a while, but yeah. Well, he, uh, one of the things he did a video on is hell boy's gun. He built an exact replica that he milled himself from a solid piece of aluminum and it functions. I mean, it doesn't fire, but he built the bullets out of residence stuff. And he, you know, he does a lot of cosplay stuff, which I get, but not my bag. He's a nerd. He's a huge nerd. He's a, he's a smart.
Speaker: But so just just to go back on on the DeLorean and Christopher Lloyd, I posted a link with private chat when you want to bring it up. Yeah. I I I just think this is like a neat little factoid. You know what? And this is this is true. And I'm going to use the screenshot of it. No. So this is actually a real thing that that blazes brought up and I'm not actually screenshot it because it's faster.
Speaker: And you guys know that that the DeLorean actually at one point, they were not going to use that car. They were going to use a refrigerator. Yeah. Well, absolutely. I'm glad they went to DeLorean. Well, I'm glad that they instead of Eric Stoltz, they went with fucking Michael J Fox.
Speaker: Well, apparently Stoltz was shit. So to what break blazing brought up. So we've heard of AutoZone, Pep Boys and things like that. Well, apparently these and O 'Reilly's on O 'Reilly's website, you can actually put in the search for the flux capacitor. And I've heard about that. Yeah, don't actually sell it. No, no, they don't actually sell it, but they keep it on their website because it's funny.
Speaker: It is the When I have kids, I'm gonna screw with them. I'm gonna get me a flux capacitor You build a functioning you can actually build a functioning flux passer there's plans online. It's not cheap. It's not easy Or no, it's plutonium, isn't it? No, no, it's just electric The car is run on nuclear
Speaker: Until it looks faster, it like you can build one. Really? I want to interview them. I want to interview them. That would. I want to drive that thing at 88 miles an hour and be like, see you later. But yeah, the problem with the glory.
Speaker: Yeah, the another unknown fact about back the future the speedometer on a DeLorean does not go that high it goes No, it doesn't. Yeah, they buy to build that speedometer But there are a couple of guys that built replicas and most of them swap out the engine first thing There is a guy he's got a he's got one. He's building. I'm watching him on YouTube He puts up a video like once every six months, but he oh Yes
Speaker: yeah uh send it to my send you your instagram um i'm trying to get all the comments i'm sorry everyone that's why this way um you're good this guy he put an ls3 in it so it's because it's the only ls that would fit in it
Speaker: Um, not to get off topic with the DeLorean, but did you guys, you guys have seen the movie duel, right? With, uh, Dennis Weaver and it was kind of like Jeepers creepers before Jeepers creepers. Uh, dad actually sold that. I think it sold that. I don't know if it was an auction or if someone had went to a car show and actually seen it and they bought it. And I think they paid like.
Speaker: and rumor, I think they paid like 100 grand for it. Jesus. And like, I know, actually a guy that has the Green Goblin semi truck from that truck is all over. Tick tock. Tick tock. Yes. But I know I got I know a guy on Facebook, and I want to get them on this show.
Speaker: But tell me you wouldn't drive that fucking thing. Oh, I love it. Like even in that movie, when you see the Green Goblin part of it, it's so cool. Well, it's like if you like. OK, so here's an interesting question, gentlemen. Damn, we could the movie on movie vehicles in this. Well, well, we could do that another night. Yeah. Well, well, for reference, for for the the movie night episode,
Speaker: Uh, if you could own a movie car, what would it be? The original Batmobile from the Adam West days. I shit you not. I have a picture of myself as a kid next to a replica. And it's always just been like this thing for me. Like I would be the person that if I ever got the chance to jump in that car, like I would want the person right next to me reciting the atomic batteries to power and just go like go and push. So that would be yours as well.
Speaker: No, mine would actually and this is kind of one that I think my dad would agree on and I should try and tell my dad to watch the show because he loves cars, but I would like to get the car from Vanishing Point and not drive it into two bulldozers at the end of the movie Agreed. The only problem I have the Vanishing Point car is it's just stock. Oh it is it is now now see me and this is kind of
Speaker: This car is also stock. I want to speed race your car. I'm like, no, no, no. I want Christine. Oh, good. It's very now the problem. The problem is my wife, I found like four of my combined. I can I could afford it at the time. Oh, yeah. I can afford every time. Well, not really because they're like 100 grand. But my wife told me each time. No.
Speaker: Nope, nope, nope, nope. I don't care what car you buy. Just not that one. She says I get a replica. Because it's kind of a scary car, dude, because I would literally set it up so that when you walk by it, it would it would it would make a noise or something like that. It would have a. That's OK, Benji. Lights would turn on or something. What do you say? His phone battery died. I figured as much.
Speaker: But but for a replica, not no, not stock. Oh, I would totally just for a Plymouth Fury. It can't be for a stock Plymouth Fury. I'd be surprised in red in red. People want a fortune for him. Oh, OK. You know, the problem is like you can get a black one or a gold one and leave. And again, for the movie one, I can't believe they're remaking that. I was going to say somebody bit my lip.
Speaker: No, go ahead, please, by all means. I'm sorry, please. I'm trying to talk Sunday nights. I know. I know it's hard trying because so many cool movie vehicles out there like, oh, man, we have to hold Sunday, Sunday, Sunday. Big things happening on Sunday, people will do. We'll do a Sunday night garage night crossover. Dude. Yeah, me and Jeff. We're going to talk about it earlier.
Speaker: Well, gentlemen, I want to thank you all for for showing up for for coming on to the show. I said, brother, I I've I've talked about doing this show when we first started the shows and I kind of got. Guilted into the business show and then ditched by my co -hosts because life happens and I get it and
Speaker: You know, for the longest time, I was kind of, I was like, add, will, will a car show really, or a garage show will really fly. But, you know, like I said, it's listening to Glick and I'm got, you guys talk about sports. I'm just, I glaze over.
Speaker: Same here. Same here. But when it comes to like, I want to do plays and I definitely want to have you on for my motorcycle show. Because you're kind of my bike guy. Benji, he's a super hard guy. Don't get me wrong. I'm the kind of guy, and my wife makes fun of me. She calls me Vin Diesel.
Speaker: Why and I'll play and give me one second here One that's always ruining the nice car at the end and you're just like you fucking idiot No, no, she calls me Vin Diesel for one reason. She says Vin Diesel has a line in the Fast and Furious movies. He's like he can appreciate a car in any form fair enough and that's that's the only reference to why she'll call me Vin Diesel because for me I
Speaker: You could show me a piece of shit Honda Civic. I'm like, this fucker's got potential. I'm the same way with bikes. I'm the same way. You know, any car can be cool and cool is subjective, as we all know. And that's that's the point of, you know, there's guys, especially in this town and this town. Yeah. In this town, there's not a guy, a lot of guys that have
Speaker: the the
Speaker: Uh, let me just find a decent picture What wasn't the batmobile in the adam west one? Wasn't that a ford galaxy or fair? It was a lincoln. It was a lincoln because I know the one in green horn at the original tv show was a lincoln mk3 Yeah, I fucking forgot all about the car So this is the ford car It is an ugly piece of shit it's a three cylinder it's not a great car but
Speaker: There's guys here that will modify them and they kind of look cool. I mean They don't pimp your ride Well, it'll come out looking like a cheech and chong vehicle No, but no, but like the thing is the the car culture is it's not like you we all don't have the money to go out buy a brand new fucking You know silverado and pimp it the fuck out who the fuck's got 300 grand to drop
Speaker: you know, a hundred grand on the truck and then another 200 grand in modifications. So not this guy, the, the, yeah. But it's like, you know, even with my eclipse, you know, the eclipse is I, I, even as it sits, I get offers on that car and I won't sell it. I refuse to sell it. Yeah. That's the old shape. Yes. That's true. That is true. But a lot of those are here. Um, but you get,
Speaker: You get people that like, there's so many Volkswagen jettas that have been modified in this town. They look pretty good. And, and yeah, some of them might not be my taste. And someone was like, dude, did you build that in your garage with cardboard?
Speaker: I can see what you're trying to do. You just failed. So the willingness to try is all that matters. And if it looks good to you, more power to you, but it may not be your, everybody else's thing. But if you like it, that's all I care about. And if you want to shoot the shit about your car or hey, maybe try this or maybe not so much shit that you found at AutoZone on sale because we've all seen those cars.
Speaker: But yeah, like I said, I appreciate you guys showing up. We're getting close. We're over. I only want it to be an hour show because we all have lives and three hour shows tomorrow. That's why we do podcasts. But I appreciate you guys coming. We're going to close this out. I'm going to play the intro as an outro again.
Speaker: And then we're gonna do our signups Tomorrow night is the nonsensical nonsense. I gotta come up some stories. I gotta find some news articles for that Of course Thursdays is talking shit Saturdays is the nonsensical nonsense open door challenge Sundays is and his movie blog caused and then Sundays Actually, no Sundays. Sorry. I
Speaker: Sunday. Yeah. You know what I meant. And then Monday's mental health. And then we're back again to the most important show. Let's be honest. This one. And I have, I have a surprise. I have a surprise coming for Sunday for Saturday. I'm working on something for the nonsensical network. Chris and I are kind of working on together. I got a little picture that I'm going to share that, you know, I did ask for headshots.
Speaker: Dude, I can't fucking wait. I have one already built. I can't wait. He's mean. Well, no, no, no, no. In a way. In a way. Oh, I will. I will, though. I do have one that's already built that I will show on Sunday. It's not the official one. Saturday. Because we're going to start Saturday, yes. One of those days. One of these days coming up. I forget what date is every minute.
Speaker: but it's not the official one because i'm doing one that is just the nonsensical network and then i have one that i played with with tickling two because i had to take my digs somewhere um that is for not just the people that are on the shows but people that occasionally pop up as well so um we're going to do sign -offs here in a minute i haven't even thought of one yet but
Speaker: we're we'll figure it out so let's go ahead and we're gonna play the outro which is the same as the intro and then uh we're gonna sign off
Speaker: You have no idea how many times I've listened to that song since I found it. It is. Wait for the banjo edition. It actually does have one, believe it or not. So, Blazin, give us your Jeff's garage outro. Well, flashlight batteries are dead. I still haven't found the 10 mil socket and I got more whiskey to drink. Amen to that.
Speaker: That's a good thing. Yeah, I like that Benji. Well, it's time to close the garage door because we got to go home. Yeah. And Steven, what do you got for me? Fuck, I dropped another bolt in the fucking motor. God damn rookies. You were right.
Speaker: Everyone's telling me hey, give me the car parts of Jeremy She and they're taking too long and I try and do it and it fucks it all up. Sorry guys He's like what? My outro is is kind of a let's tune the carburetors and we'll see you next time. Sounds great. Bye boys
