[17:20] okay there's an interesting interesting
[17:21] one about that car
[17:24] yeah but it's it's the more savage
[17:26] cousin actually because it's a mini
[17:28] and then look that came all the way from
[17:29] malaysia so
[17:31] ah here is our judging criteria okay
[17:34] paying attention
[17:35] gabe snoop ted jay bree and brian
[17:38] here we go authenticity creativity
[17:40] garage spirit autism does it look like a
[17:42] hot wheel you know
[17:43] you look at something go like man look
[17:44] at those arches look at the blower
[17:46] sticking out of the hood
[17:47] creativity you know that's basically
[17:49] does it stand out from the rest
[17:50] does it have the x factor i mean hot
[17:52] wheels is the largest automotive
[17:53] manufacturer they've made 25 000
[17:55] vehicles over the years and then last
[17:57] but not least garage spirit for me it's
[17:59] built not bought you know what i mean
[18:00] it's cool to buy a car already done but
[18:02] don't you enjoy the process
[18:03] sure yeah so oh here it comes
[18:06] i told you here we go here's our first
[18:08] car now this vehicle
[18:09] came all the way from minnesota all
[18:13] right so this vehicle i had
[18:14] i had an opportunity to talk with the
[18:15] owner and look at this thing i mean this
[18:17] screams hot wheels jay you're talking
[18:19] about the blower yesterday but you know
[18:20] what before we jump into it before we
[18:22] break el camino
[18:23] yeah man here we go look at these
[18:24] snoop's already getting hyped wow
[18:26] let's hear from the owner of chris
[18:28] walker who is in north branch minnesota
[18:30] before we dissect his vehicle
[18:33] my name is chris walker and my car we
[18:36] call it the hulk camino so the hulk
[18:38] amino
[18:39] is a 1959 el camino that i radically
[18:42] modified in approximately 60 days
[18:44] built a lot of cars for customers and
[18:46] this one was just my little toy to go
[18:47] play with so i acquired the whole camino
[18:50] from an older gentleman he had it
[18:51] stashed behind his garage underneath
[18:53] some pine trees and all that
[18:55] acidic nature of the pine needles the
[18:58] floors were pretty much gone
[19:00] rocker panels were gone the vision that
[19:02] i had
[19:03] most of that i was cutting off anyway so
[19:05] i purchased the vehicle brought it back
[19:07] to the shop and started the project
[19:09] so what would it mean to me to have my
[19:12] car
[19:13] mortalized as a hot wheels diecast car i
[19:15] remember walking through the stores as a
[19:17] little kid
[19:18] seeing that hot wheels aisle and just
[19:21] just going it down
[19:22] but to have that car up on that shelf
[19:25] would really be the icing on the cake
[19:26] i would uh hope that it would inspire
[19:29] the next generation
[19:30] to think outside the box and to
[19:34] build something wonderful
[19:40] all right snoop's already enamored after
[19:42] taking notes i think it took the vin to
[19:44] make sure
[19:44] it didn't get stolen did you have an el
[19:46] camino at one time
[19:47] i got an el camino cuz right now but
[19:50] this is like
[19:51] whoa that's extra right this is hulk
[19:53] amino that's
[19:54] gangster i mean did you did you see this
[19:56] this is how you get out of tops
[19:57] right easy access yeah easy access easy
[20:01] access but you have no doors
[20:02] what would this paint be considered what
[20:04] is that that is a patina
[20:06] are you a man of patina jay i am i like
[20:08] this car very much
[20:09] you notice the the gray and chris's hair
[20:12] shows the wisdom but i like
[20:16] i like it's got a lot of different er
[20:18] you know i haven't seen anybody do a 59
[20:20] chevy
[20:21] i i don't know in years and year
[20:23] everybody goes 50 you know try five and
[20:26] all that kind of stuff
[20:27] i think that's different i think the
[20:28] creative thinking with the roof is
[20:30] really unusual
[20:31] uh you know when i look at something
[20:33] like this i go oh i couldn't have
[20:34] thought of that right right i thought of
[20:36] that
[20:36] even the bend in the fender right there
[20:38] at the front
[20:40] i mean you you have to have that i love
[20:42] the rough nature of it because it looks
[20:44] like
[20:44] it's almost cracking under the weight of
[20:46] the motor you know right
[20:47] yeah so no i think it's i think it's
[20:50] brilliant i think it's really
[20:51] interesting
[20:52] and i love the fact that i can identify
[20:54] it from the back with the bat wing is a
[20:56] 59.
[20:57] yeah it's it's in a tiny cute little bed
[20:59] ted as a hot wheels designer here
[21:01] uh i mean these things it screams hot
[21:04] wheels and
[21:04] the blower all that the blower the
[21:06] engine out of the hood right screams hot
[21:07] wheels the thing that i like about this
[21:08] car and the funny detail that i think no
[21:10] one looks at
[21:11] is the fact that he left the the door
[21:12] handle on there right you get out
[21:19] oh he's got two ways to get in you flip
[21:20] up the roof and you can open the door
[21:22] but there's no line yeah
[21:23] it's the winchester mystery house right
[21:25] like the door that goes nowhere
[21:28] guys trying to steal it thank you yeah
[21:30] you know it's interesting when this
[21:32] design came out in 59
[21:34] there what there was an urban myth that
[21:36] uh above 120 the rear
[21:38] uh wings would lift the rear end off the
[21:40] ground active air
[21:41] yeah yeah but the car never went 125.
[21:45] i had a little 283 in it but that was
[21:47] always who there were
[21:48] people who always said yeah rumor but
[21:50] this one might go that fast though
[21:54] i mean overall looking at it can this be
[21:56] a hot wheel brian absolutely i mean this
[21:58] has everything we're looking for right i
[21:59] mean that dramatic statement right
[22:01] you think about it's going to be shrunk
[22:02] down to this scale right and and it's
[22:04] got to read
[22:05] as something bold and different at that
[22:06] scale and this definitely hits on
[22:08] that it definitely correlates i like it
[22:10] and bri we'll get to you in a moment
[22:11] again just bouncing around but i think
[22:13] this car deserves a lot of attention but
[22:14] quickly brie what do you think about
[22:15] this
[22:16] this thing was built in 60 days oh good
[22:18] point
[22:19] two months crazy this man got this car
[22:21] running in two months like this
[22:23] that's insane to me i mean the the
[22:24] wheels are ginormous like i think that
[22:26] the width of that wheel is probably
[22:28] bigger than my forearm it's uh
[22:30] yeah most definitely look at that again
[22:33] almost military there with the
[22:35] internals hey it's got got a little
[22:36] candy paint on the steering wheel snoop
[22:38] i know you're all about painting you
[22:39] know i like that
[22:40] candy dripping like water right that's
[22:42] right all right let's move on our next
[22:43] car now this one is
[22:45] digital so join us all the way from
[22:47] florida this is a build father and son
[22:49] and we did have one physical event early
[22:52] on pre-2020 pre-covered pre-lockdown but
[22:54] again our footprint has gotten larger
[22:56] because
[22:56] germany malaysia all over the world and
[22:58] uh here join us from florida it is
[23:01] miguel and michael sands this car is
[23:03] called the disco vet
[23:06] hello this is michael sands and this is
[23:08] my 1969 corvette that we call
[23:10] discovet this has been a three
[23:12] generation build
[23:14] between my son myself and my father
[23:17] we've been into cars for many years i
[23:19] started out collecting
[23:21] hot wheels toys this is what inspired us
[23:23] to build this car
[23:25] if you think of the paint job it's like
[23:26] wild and crazy just like some of the
[23:28] model cars that i used to buy when i was
[23:30] a kid
[23:31] this has been a 10-year build we started
[23:35] out
[23:35] building it we put in there a 1 000
[23:38] horsepower 427 big block
[23:40] chevy with a blower on top this is one
[23:43] amazing ride
[23:44] we won the 2020 legends tour miami
[23:48] this year with this car and we can't
[23:51] wait for the world to see it
[23:53] [Music]
[23:55] 69 great year the disco vet phenomenal
[23:58] paint thousand horsepower the big blower
[24:00] i mean that
[24:00] that screams hot wheels yeah well you
[24:02] know what's fascinating we have an event
[24:03] here in l.a called the blessing of the
[24:05] cars it's mostly latinos
[24:07] and a lot of low riders yeah
[24:10] exactly i felt like you guys needed it
[24:13] [Laughter]
[24:15] thing i find they do unbelievable is the
[24:18] paint
[24:18] this to me would probably be one of the
[24:20] hardest cars to recreate as a hot wheel
[24:22] because the paint is so
[24:23] intricate that to get that in a 164
[24:26] scale would probably be really really
[24:28] tough but
[24:29] yeah i mean the attention to detail
[24:31] that's that's really the key
[24:33] i mean the paintwork looks just
[24:34] unbelievably flawless
[24:36] and it's so complicated to do a stripe
[24:40] that's not really a stripe
[24:42] that goes in compound curves yeah it's
[24:44] got the filigree the gold foiling all
[24:46] that i mean i'm impressing it is the
[24:47] is the big high mark here he talked
[24:49] about that and not even because he
[24:50] mentioned that but
[24:51] yes this is my favorite i love it it's
[24:54] like
[24:54] the the paint job of a specific type of
[24:57] car on a totally different kind of car
[24:59] and
[25:00] and this to me screams hot whales i i
[25:01] saw this and i'm just like yeah i want
[25:03] to play with that it's mashed culture
[25:04] right
[25:05] so it's got like a little chicano in it
[25:06] but it's kind of it's it's mixed kind of
[25:08] like my cousin it's like half white half
[25:09] mexican
[25:10] that's me this car is me this car is you
[25:12] they should just follow the jared this
[25:14] is the jared bag that's what's up
[25:16] give me the keys i gotta go all the way
[25:17] to florida though i'm a steal from his
[25:18] son i feel bad though oh my god
[25:21] if i see him taking notes over here man
[25:22] disco of it how are you vibing i'm you
[25:24] know i'm a disco guy
[25:25] came up in the 70s so i respect the
[25:26] disco movement it just looks like it's a
[25:28] nice hot wheel car that can
[25:30] have a nice sound system in it and it
[25:32] can be converted into a nice
[25:34] car that you can push in your hands
[25:35] everything that i'm looking at has to
[25:37] convert to the hand size to be able to
[25:39] push it and like you said
[25:42] the thing we used to do i love that you
[25:44] gave the roman accent like it wasn't
[25:45] just rome
[25:52] ted what do you think could this be a
[25:54] hot wheel could this be a legends winner
[25:55] for sure
[25:56] i mean you look at it it looks like a
[25:57] hot wheels the thing i love about this
[25:58] car is sort of the fact that it's been
[26:00] worked on by
[26:01] three generations right the family story
[26:03] i mean that's that's near and dear to us
[26:04] in hot wheels the the
[26:05] pat the passing along of the passion of
[26:07] the building uh the love of cars to me
[26:10] that's that's the key thing here and you
[26:11] know grandpa came up with the disco
[26:14] right so the kid's like man like edm
[26:17] or rap or something like that that's a
[26:18] snoop vet like this boy never died in
[26:20] grandpa's eyes
[26:23] that wasn't grandson's idea yeah i think
[26:25] the dad did have some big tall heels on
[26:26] his thing
[26:27] brie i know i know you love paint you're
[26:29] a fan i mean this throws the whole
[26:30] you know catalog at it i mean yeah the
[26:32] car is blue i love it already i love the
[26:34] color blue i love
[26:35] how much flake is in the paint i can see
[26:37] it even just through the video but i did
[26:39] get a little bit of a glimpse of the
[26:40] interior
[26:41] and i like that the interior kind of
[26:42] seems like it matches like the livery of
[26:44] the car
[26:45] did you get that yeah it ties together
[26:47] yeah yeah i think it looks amazing i
[26:48] like it a lot
[26:49] yeah i mean there's it has a good flow
[26:52] good aesthetic even the side pipes to
[26:53] the blower
[26:54] um the the wing you know that's molded
[26:56] in because brian you'd have to open a
[26:57] new mold if you did something like this
[26:59] because yeah
[26:59] that's not the oe wing for sure yeah i
[27:02] mean we have several corvettes in the
[27:03] line um
[27:04] from that era but not not one just like
[27:06] this it's definitely a unique
[27:08] uh casting floor oh look at this oh my
[27:10] god the scorp
[27:11] ion check this thing out oh man there it
[27:15] is
[27:15] and this screams hot wheels uh i it
[27:18] isn't surprisingly a two-seater but
[27:20] maybe just one of me
[27:22] and uh sorry sorry yeah i don't know
[27:24] i'll just look at it
[27:26] i love that you're like one of me and
[27:27] then you look over and like yeah gabe's
[27:28] pushing it
[27:29] that's okay i'll drive it don't worry
[27:30] about it all right before we before we
[27:32] dissect this car any further let's hear
[27:34] from the owner
[27:34] and coincidentally uh lewis actually won
[27:38] two years ago with two jet z a very
[27:40] unique vehicle but kind of in the same
[27:42] vein but very different so
[27:43] let's hear from the owner of the scorp
[27:47] i'm louis rodriguez and my car is a
[27:49] scorp ion the scorp ion is basically a
[27:52] concept car for the road
[27:53] i wanted to create something that was so
[27:55] aesthetically insane
[27:57] that you would see it and it would be
[27:58] more of a enigma than a statement but uh
[28:01] you know it all started from
[28:02] a couple donor cards it wasn't just one
[28:04] there was a multitude of ones
[28:06] you know i had to basically take
[28:09] whatever i could find and make it fit in
[28:12] a platform
[28:13] that would exemplify you know futuristic
[28:16] car
[28:17] you know or what could fit in order so
[28:20] it would adapt uh the parameters and the
[28:22] requirements that i needed for the
[28:24] scorpio
[28:24] if the scorp ion was turned into a
[28:26] hobbles car it would mean the world to
[28:28] me
[28:28] you know the reason why i built this car
[28:30] the last year and a half blood sweat and
[28:32] tears
[28:33] was to create something that inspired
[28:35] the next generation of builders
[28:37] and what better way to share that than
[28:40] in an international platform where kids
[28:42] around the world
[28:43] can say wow what the hell is this
[28:47] and once they begin to understand and go
[28:49] beyond the fact that it's
[28:51] more than just you know a car it's an
[28:53] idea
[28:56] i mean i invite you guys to get up there
[28:57] and look at i mean
[28:59] the details i'm just telling you right
[29:00] now out the gate i have like different
[29:02] vibes i got a
[29:03] a a star wars meets tron meets the
[29:06] batmobile
[29:07] uh yeah i you know yeah this is played
[29:11] like i said earlier about the paints the
[29:13] catalog if it turned into a giant robot
[29:14] i wouldn't even be surprised
[29:17] roll out right hey snoop look at this
[29:20] exhaust right here
[29:21] so when he hits the throttle this
[29:22] actually opens up like a jet engine
[29:25] oh hold on yeah yeah exactly exactly
[29:27] right those details
[29:28] that's just like a big lighter for snoop
[29:31] all right hold on let's say that
[29:37] what are your thoughts well it's like a
[29:38] rolling r2d2 isn't it a little bit
[29:41] i i like the fact it looks like it's got
[29:43] moon dust on it you know
[29:44] it looks like it has a patina of driving
[29:46] across the plains of uh
[29:48] rigel 7 or some stupid thing i mean it's
[29:51] got that sort of vibe to it i think it's
[29:54] very clever it's really
[29:55] especially uh the little retro rockets
[29:58] uh the pseudo retro rockets on the front
[30:00] there appear to burn the paint from
[30:02] you know running at a high speed so yeah
[30:04] i think it's very clever
[30:06] and i it took me a minute it's a scorp
[30:08] ion i just thought the symbol was
[30:09] yeah so yeah it's and the more i look at
[30:12] it the more little details like the no
[30:14] step there
[30:14] and all the other kind of sort of
[30:16] military aspect to it it looks like a
[30:18] functioning
[30:19] um space vehicle yeah yeah and if 4g63
[30:23] made it to a subaru transmission so
[30:24] functionality
[30:25] look at the you know kind of horizontal
[30:27] mounted shock suspension
[30:28] and you guys have a relationship with
[30:30] lewis because he did win two years ago
[30:32] this would be our first ever two-time
[30:34] winner back-to-back right
[30:36] louis is great louis won with his two
[30:38] jet zee uh two years ago the inaugural
[30:40] year of the uh
[30:41] of the legends tour could not be a
[30:43] better guy and uh and i think he may
[30:45] have actually topped himself
[30:47] you know with this car right here it's
[30:48] it's amazing there you go there it is
[30:50] there's the actual hot wheels that we
[30:51] made uh on the two jet z if you look if
[30:54] you pan up to
[30:55] that can i feel that yeah i think we all
[30:57] want to see that let's get a shotgun
[30:59] look at this held a hot wheel in a long
[31:00] time i want to see how small it is
[31:08] [Laughter]
[31:11] so that vehicle does really exist the
[31:13] builder of this vehicle
[31:14] are you holding that like you're gonna
[31:15] smoke it
[31:18] look at look at the other details brian
[31:20] uh the blue windscreen
[31:22] wraps all the way around yeah that's so
[31:23] clever and you know uh fluffy and jay
[31:25] both mentioned the sci-fi thing
[31:26] to me this feels like something that
[31:28] daniel simon might have designed for
[31:29] some sci-fi movie you know i i just love
[31:31] that it's so slick so clean
[31:33] um and it's just outrageous just keep it
[31:35] dude
[31:37] yeah it just it it has it has everything
[31:40] right i mean just
[31:41] from an engine build a custom chassis i
[31:42] mean that was all built in his garage
[31:44] you can see he's got his coveralls there
[31:46] that's garage spirit right absolutely
[31:47] yeah sure so again the two jet z this is
[31:50] what
[31:50] that vehicle could potentially look like
[31:52] hey you know what speaking of which i
[31:53] got this hot wheel and i got
[31:55] this one this gasser right here we've
[31:57] been giving these out all hot wheels
[31:59] legends season
[32:00] long but you know how you could
[32:01] potentially get one of these follow at
[32:03] hot wheels official on ig because
[32:05] we might just drop some heat right now
[32:06] so you make sure you want to follow all
[32:08] the stories all things so
[32:09] hit the follow hit all the notifications
[32:12] because you could be
[32:13] getting one of these gases we're gonna
[32:14] be dropping throughout eternity
[32:17] are you following that hot wheels
[32:18] official yeah or you could just go to
[32:20] walmart and pay a dollar
[32:21] and get one no but but this they sell
[32:24] out jay oh i mean you know you know how
[32:25] collect you know well that's true
[32:27] sweatsuits yeah they do
[32:28] but it's only a dollar though no but
[32:30] this but this one it goes up in value
[32:32] how you buy a pair of kicks for 200
[32:34] bucks when you flip them
[32:35] limited limited numbers limited edition
[32:37] limited
[32:38] electable all the magical words oh yeah
[32:40] oh yeah
[32:43] they go nuts right all right so i got a
[32:45] couple hot wheels here speaking of hot
[32:46] wheels
[32:47] this gentleman you might know him as a
[32:49] stig but he just finished writing his
[32:50] third book
[32:51] so many accomplishments here from
[32:53] formula three indy lights le mans series
[32:55] gt nascar
[32:56] he is joining us from overseas we had
[32:58] him on the car throttle
[33:00] uk stop of the hot wheels legends tour
[33:02] ben collins ben what's up man
[33:04] hey how's it going guys great to zoom in
[33:06] yeah
[33:07] that's a good one great to zoom in and i
[33:08] know you've done some stuff with jay
[33:10] and uh we got snoopy have you ever
[33:12] talked to snoop before i've never spoken
[33:14] to snoop before but um he's talked to me
[33:16] over many years in my car when i've been
[33:18] rocking to his vibe so
[33:19] um amazing to join you all yeah and
[33:21] again fluffy we got
[33:23] designers here we got brie who might
[33:25] give you a run for your money here but
[33:26] overall uh you know pandemic interesting
[33:29] cool but thank you for joining us again
[33:31] notably known as stig but you just
[33:32] finished an awesome book and
[33:34] i want to have some words with you but i
[33:35] understand again you're a very talented
[33:37] pilot
[33:38] and uh you had some fun with the the car
[33:40] throttle guys there after we did our
[33:41] episode
[33:42] yes we did um well actually the pilot in
[33:45] the room really is jay
[33:46] last time i saw him pretty much he was
[33:48] um he was letting rip at me with um
[33:50] some machine guns um he's he's the he's
[33:52] the real bond villain among us
[33:54] but yeah we had a great time i went out
[33:56] with the car throttle team and we
[33:58] took to the track and i tried to teach
[34:00] them some stunt driving
[34:01] and um so yeah that was kind of what
[34:03] went down and we had a great time doing
[34:05] that tried is the key word right i was
[34:07] just gonna i was just kidding
[34:08] he has written the best book on how to
[34:10] drive and how to high performance drive
[34:12] that ever read
[34:12] it's really very good and the new aston
[34:14] martin book is terrific too just a nice
[34:16] easy relaxing read it's not all a lot of
[34:18] people write these car books it's just a
[34:20] 5.2 liter bag
[34:21] yeah you just get lost in the figure but
[34:23] he he has a wonderful style it makes it
[34:25] an enjoyable read
[34:26] not too tech all right speaking of tech
[34:28] let's throw it over some technology we
[34:29] got a video as you said
[34:30] tried to teach the car throttle boys
[34:32] some stunt driving here let's take a
[34:33] look
[34:35] welcome to the hot wheels legends talk
[34:37] grand finale before we get back to the
[34:39] live stream we at car throttle shot a
[34:41] really cool video with him
[34:43] and him you better check out our bit of
[34:45] fun on the car throttle channel very
[34:47] soon but in the meantime
[34:48] here's a little look at how these two
[34:49] stitch me up
[35:03] [Music]
[35:12] gonna send it in
[35:16] and then keep it sliding a little bit on
[35:17] the power
[35:21] to start up in first gear loads of red
[35:22] stop the clutch get the wheel spinning
[35:24] it's going to inch forward and then i'm
[35:25] going to turn right and then it will
[35:26] start spinning around the axis
[35:30] the idea is to keep enough momentum but
[35:32] it's fairly seamless the car spins
[35:33] around but never stops moving
[35:47] and one of the other things i'm going to
[35:48] teach you as well is the handbrake turn
[35:50] yeah
[35:50] i'll do a little demo there okay
[35:53] ramsay goes into first gear
[35:57] and away in the other direction okay
[36:01] you can handle all that
[36:02] [Music]
[36:08] wait go
[36:15] there we go so we found the limit
[36:17] [Music]
[36:22] right ben like you said you tried he did
[36:24] he had some good runs there
[36:26] uh snoop was snoop was mildly impressed
[36:29] he didn't do bad actually um it was just
[36:31] as well he had the helmet on though
[36:32] i think um it kind of kept everything
[36:34] inside particularly his lunch
[36:40] i mean we pulled off five different
[36:41] moves in the space of um three hours
[36:43] and uh and ethan is a camera guy he
[36:46] never saw this coming so he was almost
[36:47] in tears at the beginning when we told
[36:49] him it was going to be him in the hot
[36:50] seat
[36:50] but he did well and uh yeah it was good
[36:53] it was great to rehearse the moves as
[36:54] well with the hot wheels cars and just
[36:55] give him a sense of what was going to
[36:57] come before we
[36:58] jumped into the big machine yeah we did
[37:00] well and it's it's so much easier with
[37:02] the hot wheels right
[37:03] uh a brief a brief description of this
[37:05] aston martin book because last time
[37:06] you went on a whole diatribe we don't
[37:08] have time for that we're trying to find
[37:09] out the finale winner but
[37:10] aston martin great history really
[37:12] interesting
[37:13] i it's such a fun story so it's a
[37:15] hundred years in the making
[37:16] and really what i focus on is the
[37:18] stories of the people i love cars i love
[37:20] driving um but essentially it's um it's
[37:22] a it's a bunch of stories about
[37:24] um engineers and designers and wild
[37:26] drives um over a period of time they're
[37:28] all kind of magically linked together
[37:30] so um from sterling moss david brown the
[37:33] early founders of the company right up
[37:34] to modern time with the with the entry
[37:36] into formula one
[37:37] coming up next season so there's
[37:39] something in it for everyone it's uh
[37:40] it's a fun
[37:41] it's a fun read good writing it's a
[37:42] great book yeah yeah you were we were
[37:44] talking about it yesterday and you were
[37:45] saying
[37:45] it's not hoity toity it's it's just no
[37:47] it's really good it's digestible ben
[37:49] also does valet parking at the olive
[37:50] garden so be careful
[37:52] hey when you're there you're family yeah
[37:53] yeah yeah i mean it makes sense
[37:55] and endless bread sticks i mean come on
[37:57] what can you you get the stig to whip
[37:58] your ride
[37:59] even if it's a camry it's amazing i want
[38:01] to ride in that car man like homeboy did
[38:04] so i want to be the passenger seat jay's

[40:32] this
[40:34] [Music]
[40:37] for is completely completely cleaned
[40:47] gabe what do you think of this vehicle
[40:48] it's really short obviously speaking
[40:50] german i don't speak german i speak
[40:51] american
[40:52] man and i'm just thinking that's a car i
[40:53] cannot fiat in
[40:56] so uh yeah it's already a hot wheels to
[40:57] me bro
[41:02] yeah i gotta push this around run around
[41:04] the carpet throw it down the track
[41:06] it is a cute car yeah it is a cute car
[41:09] and uh if i pop my head in there i'm
[41:10] sure it would look
[41:11] good and to give you a size of scale
[41:14] bree you you were talking about it uh
[41:16] him standing next to it and also those
[41:18] are thirteens
[41:20] it gives you any idea they look look at
[41:21] that it comes up to his waist
[41:23] right what do you think of this carpet i
[41:25] mean i i love small cars i have such a
[41:27] thing for small cars i drive a mini
[41:29] cooper on a regular basis and i don't
[41:30] know it's something about them but
[41:32] the fitment on that car is uh immaculate
[41:34] yeah honestly and the attention to
[41:36] detail in this car he's even got some
[41:37] green on the interior of the car as well
[41:38] i really wish i could see this car in
[41:40] person man i love small cars
[41:42] so much i don't know what it is about
[41:43] them they're so nimble they handle
[41:44] really well
[41:45] i wish i could drive it the 126p jay i
[41:48] know you you like enjoying driving your
[41:49] cars while we were setting up yesterday
[41:51] you're taking
[41:51] different bikes different cars
[41:52] everything out you took i don't even
[41:53] know what vehicle this morning
[41:55] 126p what do you think well i think this
[41:57] is what i like about
[41:58] the fact that this is an international
[42:00] competition because here in america we
[42:02] tend to go bigger it's better bigger
[42:04] engine bigger blower thousand horsepower
[42:06] and and the fact that in in in germany
[42:08] where gasoline is very expensive
[42:10] you still got to think of you know what
[42:12] eight nine dollars a gallon so the fact
[42:14] that it's
[42:14] very creative here to take a small car
[42:17] plus
[42:18] the guy's name how do you date i mean
[42:21] how do you meet a girl's father hi i am
[42:23] mr horny

[42:28] i tried to dodge that one but okay you
[42:30] could do that because this is your house
[42:32] hello i am mr hall i get i got it jay i
[42:35] am calling for you guys
[42:36] i think that's a family conversation in
[42:38] germany
[42:40] yeah yeah great german accent by the way
[42:43] it just means he honks the horn a lot
[42:46] i get it you're horny i get it ted could
[42:48] this transition and transfer into a hot
[42:50] wheel
[42:51] let's let's transition that's a good one
[42:52] um yeah i know for sure this is this is
[42:55] one where you know
[42:56] we've seen some big american muscle cars
[42:58] before this is kind of the other end of
[42:59] the spectrum and that's what i love
[43:01] about hot wheels right it's every single
[43:02] thing
[43:03] you can think of this guy clearly loves
[43:04] this car 126 fiat you wouldn't think of
[43:07] of sort of making uh like this but he
[43:08] slammed it fener flares
[43:10] super cool all right moment of silence
[43:12] we got a a vehicle that i truly love i
[43:14] mean this thing
[43:15] was built maybe yes man there's a 1970
[43:19] pontiac trans am
[43:20] built right down the freeway in costa
[43:22] mesa california okay
[43:24] feel free stand up like i said not okay
[43:26] brian's standing okay
[43:27] maybe two at a time one from this side
[43:29] one from that side but let's hear from
[43:30] the owner first
[43:32] uh riley stare before we dissect this
[43:34] hot rod yeah i mean it's it
[43:41] overall i mean you see my name and i'm
[43:43] the owner and builder of the 1970
[43:45] pontiac trans am the trans am embodies
[43:47] what is
[43:47] a couple years of every day after work
[43:50] every weekend all weekend spent on the
[43:52] side yard of my parents house
[43:53] building what is ultimately my dream car
[43:56] the car when i
[43:57] pulled it under the side yard for the
[43:58] first time was in pretty rough shape
[44:00] it was rusty and had signs of
[44:03] existing body damage essentially
[44:05] everything except for the final bodywork
[44:06] and paint was
[44:07] was done by me and that was kind of my
[44:09] goal from the get-go was to build the
[44:11] best thing that i could
[44:12] given the honest settings and the the
[44:15] humble
[44:16] and meek tooling to be able to have that
[44:19] immortalized into a hot wheels die cast
[44:21] would be a dream come true
[44:22] to have my nephew be able to play with a
[44:26] die cast of
[44:27] a car that was built in his grandparents
[44:29] side yard and to have
[44:31] kids as i did when i was a kid play with
[44:34] hot wheels and really
[44:35] kind of cultivate and and nurture that
[44:37] love and that passion for cars
[44:39] and to have my car be that that hot
[44:41] wheels would be a dream come true
[44:47] i mean just look at this thing it is
[44:49] absolutely beautiful and
[44:51] and it's white i love white cars but the
[44:53] suspension the geometry
[44:55] the build quality built on the side of
[44:57] his parents house well the thing i like
[44:58] about this
[44:59] a lot of the cars we see today are built
[45:01] this one is engineered
[45:03] you know this is a front mid-engine
[45:05] design
[45:06] i mean and i like the sort of
[45:08] exoskeleton idea of this with the hood
[45:10] off where
[45:11] i see that the uh what's un the other
[45:13] car if you don't know what's really
[45:14] under the car it could be all rusty
[45:16] could be just a standard frame modified
[45:18] this is built from the ground up so you
[45:20] can see you know there's a guy named
[45:22] kimball who does these car
[45:23] illustrations where you can see through
[45:25] the car and that's what i love about
[45:27] this
[45:27] i mean this really is this guy is a
[45:30] builder everybody has something you know
[45:31] gabriel writes jokes new writes music
[45:33] you do stunt driving
[45:34] what do i do still working on that
[45:39] all right i'm trying to find out
[45:43] tell me i'm pretty yeah you're pretty
[45:45] yeah that's the thing
[45:46] but i mean this this is this is probably
[45:50] the best built okay bill carr i've seen
[45:53] today brian
[45:54] yeah i mean what jay said like that that
[45:58] frame in there that cage is just so
[45:59] amazing
[46:00] everything is so purpose-built and um
[46:03] you know we could have
[46:04] a lot of fun replicating that in 164th
[46:06] you know just
[46:07] capturing all this detail that you see
[46:09] with the cage oh no
[46:10] [Laughter]
[46:12] wait i mean i get it it matches your
[46:13] track suit snoop oh i get it
[46:16] look at that oh it's meant to be here no
[46:18] matching outfit oh
[46:19] no hey look you even got gold laces max
[46:22] i'm just
[46:22] saying man he might want to drive off on
[46:25] this yeah this may drift with me
[46:27] yeah right and you were talking about it
[46:29] just all the detail can that be
[46:30] duplicated
[46:32] ew honey yeah yeah we can th that cage
[46:34] could be part of an interior part that
[46:36] that shows through
[46:37] um and what i really love is how they've
[46:40] moved that engine back
[46:41] so far i mean like that's so dramatic
[46:43] and i think that would really
[46:44] be striking at our scale you see that
[46:46] you know you expect
[46:48] you expect a you know a trans am motor
[46:50] to be right here but it's
[46:51] way back here and and i'm sure they've
[46:53] really improved the balance with that
[46:54] thing
[46:55] it's it's not just a trailer queen this
[46:57] is meant to be driven and and
[46:58] if if it has been driven he's done a
[47:00] good job of kind of tidying it up clean
[47:01] it up but the detail is immaculate ted
[47:04] i mean i'm looking at this through the
[47:06] eyes of a kid and i'm just like wow
[47:08] the amount of interest intricacy in the
[47:10] front and just you're able to see
[47:12] everything that's going on in this car
[47:14] it's literally two inches off the ground
[47:15] and and uh
[47:16] it's like it's a trans am but it's like
[47:18] it's like uh smoking the bandit meets
[47:19] mad max
[47:20] love it there's so much just happening
[47:22] here yeah it took me a second to
[47:24] recognize that it was a trans am
[47:25] yeah br bree's checking it out over here
[47:27] bree what what stands out to you
[47:29] i am drooling over this fabrication give
[47:31] me the camera
[47:32] steering wheel brake touch the steering
[47:33] wheel is it sweet oh
[47:39] the driver's experience right that's if
[47:41] you feel compelled to give me the keys
[47:43] you know it's a good build it could be a
[47:44] low rider and that's the thing is this
[47:46] thing's as low as your bel air outside
[47:48] but it doesn't have switches to do
[47:49] anything it's got you know full on
[47:51] suspension and i know you're a porsche
[47:52] guy you're all about driving
[47:53] driving experience and this is
[47:54] purpose-built and we love that the fact
[47:56] that it's not just a it's a it's not all
[47:57] show it's all
[47:58] it's actually go which we love and look
[48:00] at the welds i mean the welds are
[48:02] i mean if if you're a welder you look at
[48:04] that and go boy that's art
[48:05] yeah i mean so seamless
[48:08] yeah it's it's it's very impressive uh
[48:11] overall i really like this car again
[48:13] i liked how humble he was we talk about
[48:14] the story the back story father and son
[48:16] all this
[48:17] he's talking about his nephews he's like
[48:18] man i'd love my nephew to play with this
[48:20] car
[48:21] that was built at his grandparents house
[48:22] inside yards
[48:24] right that was dope that's pretty ill
[48:26] and it's it's all it's all about family
[48:27] look at even the blue and yellow plate
[48:29] you gotta admire that i know you're a
[48:30] sucker for
[48:31] california place with the punishment
[48:35] blue and yellow blue and yellow that's
[48:36] what the guys sit in the back door that
[48:38] thing don't sit like no regular oh wait
[48:40] it's like a bullfrog right
[48:41] it's got some haunch it's got some hips
[48:43] like another point
[48:45] hello don't lie over there
[48:49] all right let's uh let's move on to a
[48:50] digital submission here again this one
[48:53] the car throttle uk stop where we had a
[48:55] uk and a us winner
[48:56] so this was the uk winner and
[49:00] i know jay you've heard of this car but
[49:01] i've never heard of this vehicle before
[49:03] oh yeah yeah the the hillman imp hillman
[49:06] imp
[49:06] this is this is deemed rosie and the
[49:09] builder is james
[49:10] william let's go back across the pond
[49:12] and hear some more about this very
[49:13] unique car
[49:15] hi i'm james williams and i own a 1976
[49:17] hill with him
[49:18] called rosie i'll define rosie as a
[49:21] one-off
[49:21] unlike any other imp in the world i just
[49:24] wanted to build something unique and
[49:25] personal to me
[49:27] and hopefully i've done that and
[49:29] hopefully show how cool these little
[49:30] cars can be
[49:31] when i first bought off ebay it was
[49:33] leaking oil the exhaust was hanging off
[49:36] the body where it was tight the interior
[49:37] was just one seat it's been a 13 year
[49:39] live affair
[49:41] that has brought us here today um it was
[49:43] my first car
[49:44] my daily car and now it's now i have a
[49:46] family it's gone to a show car i had the
[49:48] engine rebuilt when i first got it
[49:49] and thrashed her about for a few years
[49:51] and then i started the process of
[49:53] turning to this cool little hot rod
[49:54] to have hot wheels of not only a home
[49:56] with him but my human it would be
[49:58] insane to think that people will be
[50:01] collecting playing with
[50:02] a model of my car is just mental um and
[50:05] hopefully it'll bring
[50:06] the hillman to a whole new audience so
[50:08] fingers crossed
[50:10] i love it he looked like a boy band
[50:12] member they're just posing in front of
[50:13] the car and all that but
[50:15] rosie i think speaks volumes i like the
[50:16] martini racing stripe on it i mean great
[50:18] execution i love the fact that in
[50:20] england
[50:20] you have to build your car outside in
[50:22] the rain
[50:24] it's they don't even have a sunny day to
[50:26] film it it's just raining
[50:27] all the time yeah it's powered by fish
[50:30] and chips too it's crazy
[50:31] exactly exactly the hillman imp gabe
[50:34] what do you think that's making me
[50:35] hungry car right there yeah
[50:37] what do you what do you think have you
[50:38] ever heard of a hillman imp uh hillman
[50:40] amp it sounds like something that you
[50:41] need an ointment for
[50:42] okay yeah i got a case of the helmet
[50:44] amps yeah yeah well the english os do
[50:46] that they have the humber super snipe
[50:48] they have these odd names that we would
[50:50] never have here
[50:51] looking around this car brian uh has uh
[50:54] hillman
[50:55] ever been made into a hot wheel i can
[50:57] guarantee you we have not done a helmet
[50:59] imp
[51:00] yet um but but this one we might i mean
[51:03] this thing is sick
[51:04] i love these tiny quirky european builds
[51:06] just like that fiat before um
[51:08] i love it when people take a funky
[51:10] little car and turn it into something
[51:12] really
[51:12] really cool i mean you could see
[51:13] straight and surprisingly we talked
[51:15] about that fiat having 13s this is 17s
[51:17] under the arches
[51:18] even though they're black you can just
[51:20] see the stance on it the arches the
[51:22] interior really well executed
[51:23] ted i know like i said i keep going back
[51:25] to you being a porsche fan but it has
[51:26] that
[51:27] porsche esque with the buttons you know
[51:28] the holes and then it does have a little
[51:30] british knot it does have a tartan
[51:32] ceiling it's hard and sealing yeah i
[51:33] call them back to its uh scottish roots
[51:35] it's a the inside is great you talked
[51:37] about the martini striping really fun
[51:38] the fun thing i like about this one it
[51:40] actually has uh range rover headlights i
[51:43] my first car was an 87 range rover same
[51:45] headlights so that's a fun little detail
[51:47] there
[51:47] yeah uh air ride suspension so there you
[51:49] go so you could slam it you could raise
[51:50] it up what do you think of this thing
[51:52] i think it's nice i think it's a nice
[51:53] small compact car it's
[51:55] detailed very well tires interior paint
[51:59] job
[51:59] this fly it looks like a car that i
[52:01] always see when i used to go to over
[52:03] to europe all the time you see a bunch
[52:04] of cars like that everybody car would
[52:06] look
[52:07] you know the same you know size wise
[52:09] yeah
[52:10] you should buy it and call it the blunt
[52:12] i like that
[52:14] i like that all right rosie one rosie
[52:20] rear engine i mean this this thing's
[52:22] unique and i know you're a driver bree
[52:24] yeah i mean honestly i love how true to
[52:27] this car he really stayed he said this
[52:28] was his first car
[52:30] so he got this car he said it had an
[52:31] exhaust leak it was leaking oil and he
[52:33] just
[52:33] really it seems like he kind of took
[52:35] this car for what it was and just
[52:36] revamped it and tried to keep it very
[52:38] classic but those
[52:40] 17s like how do you how do you get seven
[52:43] teams in that
[52:44] how do i that's what it comes down to i
[52:46] mean you can see custom body work over
[52:48] fenders that's where you start banging
[52:49] away right i mean
[52:50] yeah to accommodate that this is custom
[52:52] but even even the leather wrapped cage
[52:54] i like those details because like snoop
[52:56] was trying to steal the steering wheel
[52:58] off of the trans am you know
[53:00] it's interior that's where you are
[53:02] literally connected to the car the
[53:03] pedals the shifter and the steering
[53:04] wheel well you know these are fun
[53:06] because guys like him remind me of
[53:08] watchmakers
[53:09] you know they literally take their car
[53:11] they take their engine apart on the
[53:12] kitchen table
[53:13] you know a lot of these english builders
[53:15] they live in these sort of carriage
[53:16] houses you know the row houses
[53:18] so they don't have garages but they have
[53:19] a garden shed and they bring the engine
[53:21] inside and
[53:23] mom's cooking dinner they put in the end
[53:24] and then they got to put it away at
[53:25] backpack outside
[53:27] i love that i love that whole feel and
[53:29] look to it yeah yeah the story continues
[53:31] right and you can see
[53:32] the the helmets even got that leather
[53:34] pattern that continues on through
[53:35] i mean overall i think this is a really
[53:37] well executed build will it be a hot
[53:38] wheels legend
[53:40] tbd right i mean like brian like you
[53:42] said uh
[53:43] never made a helmet imp i've never heard
[53:44] of the vehicle until i saw one here
[53:46] and this might be the best looking
[53:47] hillman imp we're ever going to see
[53:49] potentially
[53:49] i think so yeah so uh overall you could
[53:52] see just a a great execution a really
[53:54] neat car
[53:55] uh you know i i'd say subtle but just
[53:58] really well refined paint it could you
[54:00] could go crazy with the graphics if it's
[54:02] a martini stripe going up and over
[54:04] obviously a fan of martini racing little
[54:06] devil i'm assuming that's the mascot
[54:08] for the vehicle and there's those
[54:09] beautiful leather recaros like
[54:11] again it's just all about the office and
[54:13] the office space this guy driving and
[54:14] ted i would say that it moving there at
[54:16] the end of the leaves being kicked up
[54:17] that kind of added
[54:18] because you show it it's got some swag
[54:20] it's about the feeling right it's about
[54:21] driving is about feeling yeah totally
[54:23] all right so uh if you're just joining
[54:25] us we are just a little bit through
[54:28] i think we got six vehicles yeah we've

[56:25] yeah
[56:26] i mean it's an amazing vehicle paxton
[56:28] have you ever been to leno's garage
[56:30] yes oh you have been here no i haven't
[56:31] been yesterday you were
[56:33] yesterday i was so technically not today
[56:35] but
[56:37] okay i've been here yesterday okay got
[56:39] it uh what i mean what do you love most
[56:40] have you found your favorite car or
[56:42] anything
[56:42] yes my favorite car of all time the 65
[56:45] shelby gt350
[56:47] is here and it has red lines which makes
[56:49] it even better
[56:50] okay all right again the knowledge blows
[56:53] me away so paxton you have some
[56:54] questions for brennan
[56:55] go ahead you guys elaborate wrap it out
[56:57] and uh yeah go ahead stage is yours
[57:00] all right i'll do my best i'll do my
[57:01] best all right paxton how you doing bud
[57:03] good how are you good good good so uh
[57:06] i'm just gonna name the uh hot wheels
[57:08] fleet cars we have today
[57:09] okay uh so we have midas monkey yes
[57:12] twin mill diora ii yup bone shaker
[57:15] and the hot wheels el camino yes so
[57:19] what do you think hot wheels has made
[57:20] more of uh hot wheels
[57:22] originals like bone shaker and twin mill
[57:25] behind me
[57:26] or brands like mustang and camaro
[57:30] i would think that we've made a little
[57:31] bit more on the license side
[57:33] so like even if you go back to the 1968
[57:36] cars most of those cars are licensed
[57:38] versus hot wheels original
[57:39] and just as today i think the it's
[57:42] weighs a little bit more
[57:43] on the license side it's kind of with my
[57:46] collection too
[57:46] that's what i was feeling you would say
[57:48] because my collection it's
[57:49] sort of half and half but it's like 60
[57:53] type deal what do you have the most of
[57:55] is it the shelby gt350
[57:57] uh no it's actually more mustangs
[58:00] because mustangs are my favorite type of
[58:02] car
[58:02] okay so it's probably going to be a
[58:03] majority of muscle cars mustangs camaros
[58:08] how about firebirds those two i have a
[58:10] lot of the
[58:11] original hot birds too from the hot one
[58:13] series i have a ton of those
[58:15] nice so are these fleet cars drivable
[58:19] yes for the most part they're not all
[58:21] street legal only a few of ours
[58:23] are street legal with license plates and
[58:24] stuff but yeah they are
[58:26] just about all of them run and drive are
[58:28] they fast
[58:31] some are fast but some were just built
[58:33] to drive around so like
[58:36] twin mill could be very fast with dual
[58:39] supercharged big block engines but the
[58:41] reality is
[58:42] it overheats so you can only go so far
[58:44] before you have to like get out and push
[58:46] and it's probably impossible to see
[58:48] because you're sitting yes and there's a
[58:50] motor in front of you instead of being a
[58:52] big motor
[58:52] in the middle you have to be like this
[58:54] to drive or look that way and that way
[58:56] and hope for the best
[58:57] it doesn't seem like the safest thing
[58:59] but uh
[59:01] it's good looking so yes it looks
[59:02] wonderful and that car by the way has
[59:04] had the most
[59:06] refreshes of any hot wheels full-size
[59:08] car that we have because as you know it
[59:10] started out as red
[59:11] then metallic green then it was painted
[59:13] light blue then it was a batman
[59:14] versus superman and now it's wrapped in
[59:16] a spectra flame blue
[59:18] wow that's that's a lot of paint jobs
[59:20] yes but
[59:21] i know didn't you change the color for
[59:23] bone shaker for last year's sema too
[59:25] yeah that was changed actually for the
[59:27] hot wheels 50th anniversary it went from
[59:29] its original livery of black and flames
[59:31] to blue with the 50th
[59:33] and then we made it red for sema uh i
[59:35] don't know if i saw the blue with the
[59:37] 50th i think i only saw this one
[59:39] and the uh the one before 50th okay i
[59:41] might have to look up photos of that
[59:42] yeah we have hot wheels of it in 164th
[59:44] as well yes
[59:45] i have that yeah okay good so i have to
[59:48] ask on the el camino what is that stuff
[59:50] in the back it just like
[59:52] is it tubes and it just looks like a lot
[59:54] of different stuff
[59:55] yes that car was when it was purchased
[59:58] it was purchased
[59:59] from a previous hot wheels employee and
[1:00:01] then we
[1:00:02] rebuilt it for the hot wheels test
[1:00:04] facility program if you remember that
[1:00:05] around 2011 2012.
[1:00:07] i was only one in two then so okay
[1:00:11] so that was a long time ago you know
[1:00:13] like when the dinosaurs were roaming and
[1:00:14] stuff
[1:00:15] they built that up to make it look like
[1:00:18] it had jet engines and stuff in the back
[1:00:20] so those are
[1:00:21] jet engines and there's a bunch of like
[1:00:23] functional
[1:00:24] panels on the side so they're controlled
[1:00:26] so the flaps will come out for breaking
[1:00:28] and there's some other cool flaps too so
[1:00:29] there they are functional on the side
[1:00:31] you'll see them on the c
[1:00:32] pillar right behind the side window as
[1:00:34] well as in the back those flaps will pop
[1:00:36] out and stuff and then
[1:00:38] the right side headlight was removed for
[1:00:40] air intake so
[1:00:42] oh yeah i didn't even realize that
[1:00:43] there's no right headlight
[1:00:45] yes now do you know what it is right
[1:00:49] yes do you know what year el camino that
[1:00:51] is uh
[1:00:52] i want to say something i don't know
[1:00:56] 1971. i was gonna guess something
[1:00:59] 70s because it has that 70s el camino
[1:01:02] look but
[1:01:04] who is that hey buddy how are you hi
[1:01:07] good how are you
[1:01:08] good good good welcome thanks for coming
[1:01:09] to the garage yes thank you
[1:01:11] for uh taking me here oh sure
[1:01:14] yes so i have a few questions okay go
[1:01:18] ahead
[1:01:18] so hot wheels have been a huge part of
[1:01:21] my upbringing
[1:01:22] did you play with hot wheels when you
[1:01:23] were kid well i was 18 when they came

[1:01:45] it really oh yeah that's cartoon science
[1:01:47] yes that works that works yeah
[1:01:49] i never thought cartoon science was real

[1:05:08] comes moment of silence look at this
[1:05:10] thing
[1:05:11] the mayhem moto works this is a 58 chevy
[1:05:14] apache la blue on the wheels you can see
[1:05:17] that tis
[1:05:18] this one the dub us stop so jeffrey the
[1:05:22] owner
[1:05:23] let's break this thing down because this
[1:05:24] has all of it including
[1:05:26] three turbos jeff
[1:05:31] my name is jeffrey mcadam and i'm the
[1:05:32] owner of the divergent chevy truck
[1:05:34] how did i define my build started as a
[1:05:36] father-son project that quickly blew up
[1:05:38] into an over-the-top
[1:05:39] wild sema build slash race truck what
[1:05:42] was it like when i acquired it
[1:05:43] it was just a body no paint no motor no
[1:05:46] trance not even a chassis
[1:05:48] how did it get to what it is today i
[1:05:50] would say it's an accumulation of all of
[1:05:52] my favorite trucks put into one
[1:05:54] wild build how would i feel about it
[1:05:55] becoming a die cast
[1:05:57] truly incredible i think it'd be
[1:05:58] inspiration to so many other young
[1:06:01] builders out there and
[1:06:02] you know we all dream of having our
[1:06:03] favorite truck sitting on our shelf and
[1:06:05] this is mine
[1:06:06] i want it on my shelf i had to show a
[1:06:09] snoop again you got three turbos right
[1:06:11] here if you could see that one
[1:06:13] two three he's got that side exhaust you
[1:06:15] like that that black
[1:06:16] black smoke
[1:06:20] i know you are a fan of this car right i
[1:06:21] mean you saw this and
[1:06:23] pre-walking in you're like look at this
[1:06:25] it's got kind of the rocket bunny arches
[1:06:27] it's got kind of some big like pikes
[1:06:29] peak hill climb type wing
[1:06:31] and it doesn't have a truck bed you're
[1:06:32] not moving anything but you are moving
[1:06:34] honestly dude like
[1:06:35] first of all this thing is ginormous
[1:06:36] okay yeah i'm five foot even
[1:06:38] i'm standing next to it this thing is
[1:06:41] ginormous
[1:06:41] but i think my favorite thing about this
[1:06:43] truck is that he called it a sema build
[1:06:45] slash race truck
[1:06:46] okay so actually having a car like that
[1:06:49] is a sema build that
[1:06:50] runs and drives and races and does all
[1:06:53] the things that it's supposed to do
[1:06:54] is amazing to see i love his entire
[1:06:57] setup the fabrication on this is
[1:06:58] honestly insane i mean you got a
[1:07:00] rear-mounted radiator back here
[1:07:02] ginormous fuel cell three turbos in the
[1:07:04] front i've never seen anything with
[1:07:05] three turbos in my entire life have you
[1:07:06] no i i i can't recall i mean again maybe
[1:07:09] maybe some sort of diesel truck that
[1:07:10] does pike's peak hill climb
[1:07:12] uh brian going over to you i mean this
[1:07:14] is your opening one-of-a-kind mold here
[1:07:17] when it comes yeah absolutely i mean
[1:07:18] this thing is just insane
[1:07:20] i mean we've done a 58 apache before
[1:07:22] actually i um
[1:07:23] i like this yeah but not like this this
[1:07:25] thing is is crazy and
[1:07:27] i love the sort of new meets old i mean
[1:07:28] who would have thought to put modern
[1:07:30] um you know custom mustang flares on a
[1:07:33] on a 58 pickup you know right but it but
[1:07:36] it works it actually
[1:07:37] all blends in and i believe it's a 64
[1:07:39] bed on there and that all just kind of
[1:07:40] ties together
[1:07:41] yeah i see jay shake in his head what do
[1:07:43] you think well you know
[1:07:44] if you toast if you took someone and
[1:07:47] said who knows nothing about cars where
[1:07:48] is this built that's got to be an
[1:07:50] american vehicle
[1:07:51] you know what i'm saying exactly i mean
[1:07:53] it's big it's got red white and blue
[1:07:54] does awful
[1:07:55] and the you know i love i love i love
[1:07:57] meeting these i love meeting these
[1:07:59] builders in the video
[1:08:00] because when you watch tv shows about
[1:08:02] building cars the guys are throwing
[1:08:04] tools and they're loud and they're
[1:08:05] obnoxious
[1:08:06] but the real builders are like the
[1:08:08] gentlemen we've seen today they're quiet
[1:08:10] they're methodical they understand
[1:08:12] they're modest you know
[1:08:13] it's really it's really fascinating to
[1:08:15] because the cars never
[1:08:17] are like the owners you know this is
[1:08:19] outrageous yeah that guy seemed like a
[1:08:20] real gentleman
[1:08:21] a nice guy very self-effacing yeah it's
[1:08:24] a it's a beautiful build
[1:08:25] and it's a classic american build yeah
[1:08:28] and and let it be known the chassis is
[1:08:31] actually an o4 chevy yukon
[1:08:32] with a complete rear tube half frame so
[1:08:35] that's that's where it gets interesting
[1:08:37] so the fabrication
[1:08:38] you know we're we're admiring the trans
[1:08:40] am earlier this is a bit of a
[1:08:41] frankenstein
[1:08:42] and you know fluffy i know you're a fan
[1:08:44] of volkswagens you know what it is to
[1:08:46] kind of meld some parts together and
[1:08:47] this this is definitely like they took
[1:08:49] one of the most
[1:08:50] practical trucks ever made and made it
[1:08:52] the complete opposite of the practical
[1:08:54] this is outrageously awesome it's just
[1:08:56] so much like
[1:08:57] wow it's excess everything yeah i love
[1:09:00] it yeah snoop i see you taking some
[1:09:01] notes what
[1:09:02] what what are the notes entail here on
[1:09:04] this tri-turbo apache with the wings and
[1:09:06] the wheels tis
[1:09:08] what do you think i like the way that is
[1:09:10] the shape of it the way it's shaped and
[1:09:12] then the
[1:09:13] the three things that's on the front the
[1:09:15] fans in the back and then them crib blue
[1:09:17] rims is off the hooks
[1:09:19] yeah and you know the the apache lines
[1:09:21] you know you see them lowered a lot you
[1:09:23] know
[1:09:23] you'll see them on switches you'll see
[1:09:24] them on bags when you go to sema my my
[1:09:26] boy delmon speed shout out to him he
[1:09:27] built a beautiful one
[1:09:28] but it was just nice copper this just
[1:09:30] has those flares like i said rocket
[1:09:32] bunny i mean
[1:09:33] it's got it all right ted i i love it i
[1:09:35] mean you look at you look at the
[1:09:36] silhouette and to me that's the thing
[1:09:37] that stands out you talk about a hot
[1:09:39] wheels car and what's really going to
[1:09:40] kind of make an
[1:09:41] impact at that small scale and the
[1:09:43] silhouette is amazing it's something
[1:09:45] that just you have not seen before the
[1:09:47] turbo sticking out in the front
[1:09:48] the giant wing in the back instantly you
[1:09:50] look at it and it's like that's a hot
[1:09:51] wheels car yeah and i love that the roof
[1:09:53] is not chopped
[1:09:54] i love the fact that you've kept the
[1:09:55] stock so that most identifies it as what
[1:09:58] it is
[1:09:59] and everything else is modified but that
[1:10:00] stock roof the stock height the whole
[1:10:02] bit
[1:10:03] you know i mean lincoln could drive that
[1:10:04] thing with his top handle
[1:10:06] with the top hat nice well played there
[1:10:08] uh cages when you're executed
[1:10:10] in die cast tiny little cages and
[1:10:13] engines i mean that gets
[1:10:14] pretty particular might be like a red
[1:10:16] line club if it doesn't make a legends
[1:10:17] yeah yeah no but i think we could still
[1:10:19] do that in our basics
[1:10:20] um line you know i mean you know maybe
[1:10:23] the the diameter of the
[1:10:24] of the tube gets a little uh fatter you
[1:10:26] know but but we could still execute
[1:10:28] something like that
[1:10:28] for sure all right well this car is
[1:10:30] going stage left so it's a good
[1:10:31] opportunity to move on to our
[1:10:33] next international submission and this
[1:10:36] one the mexico stop and this is a
[1:10:38] a really cool unique vehicle snoop
[1:10:39] you're going to like this thing because
[1:10:40] if you love wagons i know i love wagons
[1:10:42] and a lot of us do because
[1:10:44] you're not so popular here in the states
[1:10:46] but when you do find them you love them
[1:10:47] so
[1:10:48] this 1976 volkswagen brasilia
[1:10:51] built by daniel beltran thought of him
[1:10:53] it's a short little description and
[1:10:54] we'll
[1:10:55] walk around the car
[1:10:57] [Music]
[1:11:25] [Music]
[1:11:32] we're watching this and you go dang i
[1:11:34] had one so you had one i had one of
[1:11:36] these in high school man the same color
[1:11:38] was orange and i actually took a uh
[1:11:40] i redid one of my album covers where i
[1:11:42] flashed back to high school it was
[1:11:43] called eco tripping you know
[1:11:45] i rented one and that just looked like
[1:11:48] this
[1:11:49] it didn't look as fly as that but yeah
[1:11:51] yeah oh yeah sorry
[1:11:53] gabe i feel bad not talking to you oh no
[1:11:54] it's okay it's all right the whole thing
[1:11:56] was in spanish but nobody thought to
[1:11:57] talk
[1:11:59] what's he saying he's talking smack
[1:12:00] about everybody
[1:12:12] it's not a square back i see it i see
[1:12:14] square back but that front that
[1:12:16] you know i'm a volkswagen guy but i've
[1:12:17] never had one of those right it's pretty
[1:12:19] cool
[1:12:19] and the way that it's chopped it just
[1:12:21] looks it looks sleek
[1:12:23] yeah it looks refined you know it being
[1:12:25] orange it still doesn't look gaudy
[1:12:27] is that kind of weird me saying that
[1:12:29] some cars can pull off orange
[1:12:30] yeah some cars can pull off orange this
[1:12:32] is one of them got that halloween feel
[1:12:34] to it that's nice
[1:12:35] yeah and uh those wheels are kind of of
[1:12:37] era kind of went
[1:12:38] with the vehicle you know didn't do
[1:12:40] something billet didn't do big deep dish
[1:12:42] that's kind of that look ted i see you
[1:12:44] shaking your head
[1:12:45] i love the wheels i love this car in
[1:12:46] general i mean it's it's again taking a
[1:12:48] car that you wouldn't expect and
[1:12:50] doing something really neat with it the
[1:12:51] chop top we talked about um
[1:12:53] it's a station wagon like who who does
[1:12:55] that to a station wagon it's it's
[1:12:56] it's super cool uh jay you love wagons i
[1:12:59] like this because it's
[1:13:00] you know it's the most mature build here
[1:13:03] in the sense that
[1:13:04] if you said to someone if you only drive
[1:13:06] one hot wheels car every day for the
[1:13:07] rest of your life
[1:13:08] it would probably be this because it's
[1:13:10] practical it's smart looking
[1:13:12] it's not outrageous but as you walk
[1:13:14] around oh isn't that clever
[1:13:16] oh look what he did here you know so it
[1:13:18] has
[1:13:19] it it and it's also the one that defines
[1:13:22] this generation i think the most because
[1:13:25] i find
[1:13:25] there isn't so much emphasis on the
[1:13:27] engine we don't know where the engine is
[1:13:28] in this thing
[1:13:29] is it in the front is it in the back you
[1:13:31] know it's all about the style about the
[1:13:33] look
[1:13:34] so yeah i i really like it it's
[1:13:36] different i think it's really bold that
[1:13:38] he didn't try to be
[1:13:40] outrageous because this is about being
[1:13:42] outrageous but in its own way it is
[1:13:44] outrageous
[1:13:45] and i i find the combination of all
[1:13:47] those things fascinating yeah it's
[1:13:48] sterile
[1:13:48] it's really sterile to me again just
[1:13:50] aesthetically nice clean five spokes
[1:13:52] chop top and and i'm reading some of the
[1:13:53] notes here he had to use three tops of a
[1:13:55] brasilia
[1:13:56] as donor cars to keep the curvature of
[1:13:59] of the roof so that that's just showing
[1:14:01] you that the craftsmanship here
[1:14:02] definitely deserves pieces together yeah
[1:14:04] yeah right but it definitely does look
[1:14:05] like a card that you could still take to
[1:14:07] starbucks and uh right you know yeah
[1:14:08] yeah driver it's a driver take it to the
[1:14:10] beach and oh look at this
[1:14:12] uh i love cam i'm a sucker for camo this
[1:14:14] thing is bombs away baby
[1:14:16] because look at this it is patinaed it's
[1:14:18] camo it's got the shark mouth
[1:14:20] it's got the checkered flag roof and
[1:14:21] we'll get into some details snoop i know
[1:14:23] you like interior feel free to stand up
[1:14:24] as we hear more from the owner this is
[1:14:26] the car throttle
[1:14:27] u.s stop winner robert wayne bombs away
[1:14:35] [Music]
[1:14:36] and he got a red check on his key too
[1:14:39] right
[1:14:43] look at those look at the bullet details
[1:14:44] right there
[1:14:47] look at the center console too there's
[1:14:49] bullets you can start it you got it
[1:14:50] sorry
[1:14:51] sorry sorry robert all right here we go
[1:14:52] over to you right oh wow around the
[1:14:54] column we got to ak-47 my name is robert
[1:14:57] wayne hart
[1:14:58] i am the owner designer builder and
[1:15:00] painter of bombs away
[1:15:01] she's a 1954 chevy gosh you know
[1:15:04] if if i had to define or explain the
[1:15:07] build process
[1:15:09] i guess i would just call it a uh
[1:15:11] beverly hills
[1:15:12] plastic surgeon um it's got a little of
[1:15:14] everything but it was
[1:15:16] an absolute blast you know when i
[1:15:18] acquired this car originally you know
[1:15:19] it's like any other car store you see
[1:15:21] something on the side of the road
[1:15:22] and nowadays it's the internet and you
[1:15:24] buy it and then you uh
[1:15:27] just take off with it and you fix some
[1:15:29] rust and you fix some repairs and you
[1:15:30] chop
[1:15:31] chop and drug i mean and to me to have a
[1:15:33] hot wheel built out of this car would be
[1:15:35] really special to me because uh
[1:15:38] my wife inspired the painting on the
[1:15:40] back of the car
[1:15:41] to me having a hot wheel built after
[1:15:43] this car would just be
[1:15:44] amazing and i would cherish it forever
[1:15:50] right out of the gate snoopy you're
[1:15:51] you're liking the interior but if you
[1:15:53] come around front here
[1:15:54] this has both buick oldsmobile and chevy
[1:15:57] french front headlights
[1:15:58] also multiple bumpers that's not the og
[1:16:01] bumper he's looking like bumpers
[1:16:07] it looks like it's going to come to life
[1:16:08] right this
[1:16:10] and gabe you were saying that it looks
[1:16:11] like it looks like a movie car it
[1:16:13] totally looks like a movie car right
[1:16:15] jay what do you think of this the patina
[1:16:16] do you like patina yeah i do i
[1:16:18] i think i find fascinating this could be
[1:16:21] any year since hot wheels were invented
[1:16:23] in 68.
[1:16:24] you know james dean could have driven
[1:16:26] this in
[1:16:27] in east of eden or one of those movies
[1:16:30] somebody could have driven the 60s or
[1:16:32] 70s or 80s
[1:16:33] it really is sort of it's the timeless
[1:16:35] classic
[1:16:36] hot rod it's what people did it's what
[1:16:39] they did in the 50s the 60s and 70s
[1:16:41] and i like the retro look to it i like
[1:16:43] the retro feel to it
[1:16:45] yeah it's really good and of course that
[1:16:47] seems to be look now it used to be all
[1:16:48] chrome and shiny and metal like now it's
[1:16:51] just patina like you've been through the
[1:16:52] mill and the thing is just
[1:16:54] finished you know some 24-hour race
[1:16:56] across baja right you know
[1:16:57] and i like that no i think it's really
[1:16:58] good and i think uh
[1:17:00] he's quite imaginative quite clever you
[1:17:03] it's the thing you can walk around and
[1:17:05] you like the details in the grill
[1:17:06] i didn't realize that oh i didn't
[1:17:08] realize that you know so you you could
[1:17:09] look at it for
[1:17:10] hours and hours and find something new
[1:17:13] all the time i like the artistry even
[1:17:14] just down to the hand painting
[1:17:16] uh ted deco if if you executed this it's
[1:17:18] got the mural on the back it's got the
[1:17:20] numbers
[1:17:20] it's got the patina it's got it all i do
[1:17:22] like the juxtaposition
[1:17:24] of the raw outside and then step inside
[1:17:27] it's a chameleon
[1:17:28] the luxurious inside yeah to me that's
[1:17:30] the thing that stands out
[1:17:31] is is we call it the deco on the car the
[1:17:33] fact that it's hand-painted too
[1:17:35] is just amazing i thought it was a wrap
[1:17:36] when i first saw it and you look and it
[1:17:38] is
[1:17:38] i mean like you said hand-painted which
[1:17:40] is phenomenal to me
[1:17:42] deco uh from a deco standpoint only this
[1:17:45] could be the best one out there
[1:17:46] a checker flag top look at the top
[1:17:49] checkers
[1:17:49] checker flag baby does it get the win
[1:17:52] you hear me
[1:17:52] you see i didn't even i i didn't notice
[1:17:54] the checkered flag until
[1:17:56] i was looking at it and you said
[1:17:57] checkered flag i went oh that's what it
[1:17:59] is yeah you're right
[1:18:00] that's what i mean i'm looking at it and
[1:18:02] i'm i'm seeing things
[1:18:04] each time something different yeah yeah
[1:18:06] there's a lot going on
[1:18:07] brian the wheels you know when when i
[1:18:09] first see it i'm kind of like you know
[1:18:11] and we were talking
[1:18:12] about it do the wheels fit what do you
[1:18:15] think you know
[1:18:15] funny you should ask that i i didn't
[1:18:18] like him at first i loved
[1:18:19] everything about the car but the wheels
[1:18:22] but as i look at it more it actually
[1:18:24] grows on me i think i think
[1:18:25] they actually work with with the whole
[1:18:27] theme of the car it feels like
[1:18:29] like turbine it feels like almost
[1:18:30] aeronautical and it has this kind of
[1:18:32] like
[1:18:32] old-school military plane vibe i guess i
[1:18:35] do like the finish too that they're raw
[1:18:37] because it kind of ties into the rawness
[1:18:38] of the bumper yeah they're not polished
[1:18:40] because if you
[1:18:40] dab that yeah it'd be too much i got to
[1:18:42] see what i see i see
[1:18:44] what's the mouth then i see like a gold
[1:18:46] tooth
[1:18:47] with a platinum tooth ah okay so maybe
[1:18:50] the front shiny there you go okay
[1:18:52] all right again we're talking about
[1:18:54] juxtaposition you're about to bring the
[1:18:55] car to life
[1:18:55] yeah right and the cool thing about this
[1:18:57] car it could be it could be the hero's
[1:18:59] car or the villain's car in the movie
[1:19:02] right for sure yeah it's funny you guys
[1:19:03] mentioned the wheels cause the wheels
[1:19:04] was the first thing that i noticed i
[1:19:06] felt like the
[1:19:07] i said that was first thing i told it i
[1:19:08] was like hey man i really dig in the
[1:19:09] wheels oh it feels like it's uh
[1:19:11] it makes it it brings it to today's time
[1:19:14] yeah okay that's what i feel like that's
[1:19:15] that's what ties it into now
[1:19:16] bombs away on the back is so dope that's
[1:19:19] painted that's handy
[1:19:20] oh my god that is hand painted that is
[1:19:22] it's impressive that that that vehicle
[1:19:24] to me i'm a sucker for camo too
[1:19:26] and i mean look at the back button it's
[1:19:28] still you're still admiring yourself
[1:19:29] talking away right like jay say you
[1:19:31] notice something new
[1:19:32] every time you turn away and look at it
[1:19:34] that's what's up keep noticing things

[1:23:07] support of course and uh
[1:23:09] every mobile one stop winner uh actually
[1:23:12] received a year's supply of mobile one
[1:23:13] synthetic oil look at this beauty
[1:23:16] wow this thing is the ruffian i see your
[1:23:19] head shaking i see you nodded
[1:23:21] brian brie you're you're sweating right
[1:23:23] now jay you'd like to buy this thing but
[1:23:24] first
[1:23:25] before we jump into and dissect this
[1:23:26] 1970 ford mustang deemed the ruffian
[1:23:29] let's hear from the owner and builder
[1:23:31] chris ashton
[1:23:32] that hi my name is chris ashton i am the
[1:23:35] designer
[1:23:36] builder and owner of the ruffian mustang
[1:23:39] i was inspired by
[1:23:40] a picture of this crazy green pdl race
[1:23:43] car from the 1970s i wanted a nasty race
[1:23:46] car like that
[1:23:47] but street legal that way i could drive
[1:23:49] it to work and to the grocery store
[1:23:51] and i'll cross the heck out of it on
[1:23:52] weekends i started with a base mustang
[1:23:55] it had five paint jobs and rusted floors
[1:23:57] i tore it apart
[1:23:58] and i learned how to do most of this
[1:23:59] stuff online i did everything except for
[1:24:01] the exterior paint
[1:24:03] the whole car is a custom mashup of
[1:24:04] parts but i feel the end result
[1:24:06] is undeniably cool and cohesive having
[1:24:09] the ruffian immortalized
[1:24:11] as a hot wheels die cast would mean that
[1:24:13] in a very
[1:24:14] meaningful and surprising way i have
[1:24:16] achieved my lifelong dream
[1:24:17] of being a car designer and hopefully
[1:24:20] the story of the ruffian hot wheels
[1:24:22] would inspire future hobbyist builders
[1:24:25] this is not my job
[1:24:26] i don't have formal training you can do
[1:24:28] this too and that's what hot wheels
[1:24:30] legends is all about
[1:24:34] i like it he said that snoop likes that
[1:24:36] he's i like it i like that he is the
[1:24:38] first designer today to use the word
[1:24:39] cohesive
[1:24:40] ooh yes oh word of the day well you know
[1:24:43] what i think
[1:24:44] this guy actually this guy could work
[1:24:46] for one of the auto companies because
[1:24:47] it's not so outrageous with the
[1:24:49] exception of maybe the flares there's
[1:24:51] nothing on this it couldn't be on a
[1:24:52] production automobile
[1:24:54] you know it's it's so tastefully
[1:24:56] integrated
[1:24:57] everything is beautifully done i like
[1:24:59] the fact that it's still recognizable as
[1:25:02] as a mustang but as you go over you
[1:25:04] realize oh no there's a lot of things
[1:25:06] have been changed here
[1:25:07] but yeah it's it's really impressive the
[1:25:10] handles this is custom handles
[1:25:12] the black graphics are even reflective
[1:25:14] you can't see that also or the scoop
[1:25:16] here
[1:25:16] the scoop is nice does the door open the
[1:25:18] door doesn't open
[1:25:21] is that bonus points earlier there was a
[1:25:23] hammer yeah
[1:25:25] oh look at that that's not going to be
[1:25:26] tricked against that burn but that other
[1:25:28] one yeah
[1:25:28] and and the door bar here you can remove
[1:25:30] so if you want to jump in snoop you i
[1:25:32] know you're all about steering wheels
[1:25:33] and still running the wood wheel i got
[1:25:34] to test this it's kind of a cool
[1:25:35] i love the wood grain wood grain
[1:25:38] gripping wood wood grain with
[1:25:40] wood grain gripping oh we just dropped a
[1:25:42] new track called ruffian there you go
[1:25:44] you know what you know wood green i'll
[1:25:46] show us why i am not a designer if you
[1:25:48] said to me we're going to integrate
[1:25:49] green
[1:25:50] red and black with some armor i would go
[1:25:53] no that's not awful
[1:25:55] but you know i like the fact that people
[1:25:56] can see things that i don't see i'm not
[1:25:58] a designer
[1:25:59] if i drew it i don't know red and orange
[1:26:01] and all that's but it works beautifully
[1:26:03] on this yeah and i love the fact that it
[1:26:05] it doesn't go over the roof it just goes
[1:26:08] trunk and
[1:26:09] front right it's just excellent it would
[1:26:11] just be too much it was over the roof
[1:26:12] so he has an excellent sense of taste
[1:26:15] it's beautifully done
[1:26:16] it almost looks like this is next year's
[1:26:19] mustang it looks like it could be
[1:26:21] it's nice it looks it's retro but modern
[1:26:24] at the same time i love the kept the
[1:26:26] chrome bumpers you know he didn't keep
[1:26:28] the engine says a chevy engine under the
[1:26:29] hood
[1:26:33] i knew it i knew it
[1:26:39] [Laughter]
[1:26:47] you know i love this damn thing you
[1:26:50] gotta love it i mean it's got power i
[1:26:51] mean some people you know this
[1:26:53] this makes everybody happy jay you
[1:26:54] should have one guy in a coyote or some
[1:26:56] there you go
[1:26:58] back to you again driver i want to drive
[1:27:00] this thing i can't stop staring at these
[1:27:02] wheels
[1:27:02] i cannot stop staring at these wheels
[1:27:04] these wheels are super clean but i
[1:27:05] really like the fact that
[1:27:07] he has the roll cage in the car but it's
[1:27:09] not obnoxious i think it's tucked pretty
[1:27:11] well but there's still little glimpses
[1:27:13] of it that you get and i really like
[1:27:14] that the door bar
[1:27:15] is removable because being somebody that
[1:27:17] drives a car with a roll cage on a
[1:27:18] regular basis
[1:27:19] getting in and out is not fun right i
[1:27:20] don't split your pants yeah literally
[1:27:22] yeah it's definitely uh every time i
[1:27:24] drive my car on the street
[1:27:25] what am i wearing today you'll inject it
[1:27:27] this going to be the bike club most
[1:27:29] requested
[1:27:30] the ruffian
[1:27:33] [Laughter]
[1:27:41] [Laughter]
[1:27:45] hey also air ride suspension the stance
[1:27:47] is slammed down ted
[1:27:49] the stance is great the fender flares
[1:27:51] are great going back to what brie said
[1:27:52] about the
[1:27:53] the interior i love the fact that um
[1:27:55] it's purpose-built but if you look at
[1:27:56] the inside
[1:27:57] he kept the original dash which is
[1:27:58] really cool it looks so like you're in a
[1:28:00] classic car
[1:28:01] and that to me is a really cool detail
[1:28:03] the fact that he's not
[1:28:04] classically trained and you're just
[1:28:06] doing this as a hobby
[1:28:07] amazing yeah hat tip to him overall it's
[1:28:10] it's
[1:28:11] it's a very impressive car i love it hey
[1:28:13] and just uh just an fyi we
[1:28:15] we are up here we did practice uh we did
[1:28:17] everybody got tested during covet so
[1:28:19] just an fyi
[1:28:20] we did get tested and that's uh they all
[1:28:22] obviously came up negative so just just
[1:28:24] an fy out of the fans watching
[1:28:25] any concern as well just given the time
[1:28:27] yeah yeah
[1:28:28] yeah there's always those those people
[1:28:30] that are watching they're like they're
[1:28:31] sitting way too close to each other
[1:28:33] yeah we're five and a half feet we ain't
[1:28:35] six this looks like five and a half yeah
[1:28:38] okay now we're six
[1:28:45] but that's why i stink i'm like pig pen
[1:28:47] i i keep my distance because you guys
[1:28:48] don't want to be near me because i smell
[1:28:50] so bad
[1:28:50] all right moving on let's go 78 mini
[1:28:53] cooper v8
[1:28:54] this thing is north border so it's uh
[1:28:56] it's up there it is again north of the
[1:28:58] border this is the speed society us stop
[1:29:01] winner
[1:29:01] this thing is pretty unique again a
[1:29:03] vehicle i know i can't fit in
[1:29:05] joel klausner wraps out about the mini
[1:29:07] cooper v8
[1:29:08] oh this is your car i'm excited i'm so
[1:29:10] excited my name is joel klausner and i'm
[1:29:12] the proud owner
[1:29:13] of kirby's evil cousin the mini i
[1:29:16] probably have to define the mini
[1:29:18] as sketchy crazy sick one-off
[1:29:21] show-stopping custom super
[1:29:24] wide body mini cooper when i first
[1:29:26] acquired the car
[1:29:27] it was somebody else's project but on
[1:29:30] this one we had a lot of repairs to do
[1:29:32] and a lot of measurements to change we
[1:29:35] had to do a lot
[1:29:36] to get it to fit the 18 inch wheels the
[1:29:38] v8 small block in the back
[1:29:40] the full air ride system and the one off
[1:29:42] custom wrap
[1:29:44] that defines the whole car to have the
[1:29:47] mini cooper as a hot wheels die cast
[1:29:51] would just be crazy sick like it would
[1:29:54] just be
[1:29:55] awesome and not only to me but to my
[1:29:57] kids who are already
[1:29:59] freaking out about how far this has gone
[1:30:01] i couldn't imagine them walking into a
[1:30:03] toy store and seeing the mini on the
[1:30:05] shelf i think
[1:30:06] they would just be ecstatic
[1:30:09] the sketchy cousin of herbie you love
[1:30:11] that brie and jay just asked you oh
[1:30:12] brittany this is this is your car yeah
[1:30:14] you're about to use my favorite
[1:30:15] mini cooper 14 1400 pounds and it has a
[1:30:19] l79
[1:30:20] 400 horsepower in the rear oh my
[1:30:22] goodness
[1:30:24] dude i already told you i have a thing
[1:30:25] for small cars i love mini coopers
[1:30:28] the fact that this mini cooper has 18
[1:30:31] inch wheels on it
[1:30:32] the air ride suspension wasn't like a
[1:30:33] slow area
[1:30:35] like literally dropped dropped
[1:30:37] completely and the
[1:30:38] fact that the whole back half of the car
[1:30:40] just pops off like seamlessly so you can
[1:30:43] see everything because the engine is
[1:30:44] very mounted
[1:30:45] right it's great i want it i want to
[1:30:46] drive it the parachute
[1:30:48] i'm just a little concerned functionally
[1:30:50] if he hits the shoe it's just going to
[1:30:51] pull the whole rear end off
[1:30:53] you know it doesn't slow you down it
[1:30:54] just stops you because holy cow where'd
[1:30:56] the rest of my car go
[1:30:57] brian opening a mold on this a die cast
[1:30:59] you know i like the herbie homage but i
[1:31:01] think it could be something of its own
[1:31:02] because herbie was a volkswagen bug
[1:31:04] you know gabe i know you're a volkswagen
[1:31:06] guy uh you know and that is a wrap
[1:31:08] that's you know i don't know if you guys
[1:31:09] caught that that is a wrap but what do
[1:31:10] you think opening the mold is a hot
[1:31:12] wheel
[1:31:12] oh yeah for sure i mean we've done a lot
[1:31:14] of minis but this is this is definitely
[1:31:16] unique
[1:31:16] i mean this thing's almost wider than it
[1:31:18] is long right yeah the portions are
[1:31:20] insane right
[1:31:22] um i could definitely see this and like
[1:31:24] you said the the
[1:31:25] whole back coming off um i'd love to
[1:31:27] actually do that in the die cast yeah
[1:31:29] make it like
[1:31:29] that a separate part that pops off wow
[1:31:31] that'd be sick yeah so cool said i think
[1:31:33] we were talking about here so you almost
[1:31:34] like you were saying brian there you'd
[1:31:36] almost have to
[1:31:37] in the blister you can phase it front
[1:31:38] yeah yeah
[1:31:40] have you done that have you done that we
[1:31:41] actually did yeah this could be the
[1:31:42] first
[1:31:43] actually we did these wide uh what do we
[1:31:45] call them the wide body one
[1:31:47] that where they actually face the okay
[1:31:49] all right cool i like it and
[1:31:50] snoop i i saw you vibing on this thing
[1:31:52] man it's dope man like
[1:31:54] i love her we love buzzing just to see
[1:31:56] he said this distant cousin
[1:31:58] sketchy sketchy cookie i don't know you
[1:32:01] got flavor with it though i like it he
[1:32:02] got the six
[1:32:03] nine on the side got the wrap on it the
[1:32:05] rims the crop top the wool bopped and
[1:32:07] bull bop
[1:32:08] i'm like oh wait yeah i like to spin
[1:32:10] this was that cohesive with orange
[1:32:12] no i wouldn't go
[1:32:13] [Laughter]
[1:32:15] okay what do you think of this thing i
[1:32:17] love that it comes apart man it'd be the
[1:32:18] only car that i don't get in i put on
[1:32:20] so it's i could wear it there's your 20
[1:32:23] 21 halloween costume there you go he
[1:32:25] said here comes fluffy
[1:32:27] it's almost sketchy cousin it's almost
[1:32:28] as quiet as it is right
[1:32:31] i love it yeah i mean this thing overall
[1:32:33] and you can see the passion he talks
[1:32:35] about his kids loving it and
[1:32:36] and just overall right i mean ted that's
[1:32:38] again just comes into it you guys love
[1:32:40] that
[1:32:40] he had fun he had fun building it i mean
[1:32:42] you can clearly tell he loves this car i
[1:32:44] love the detail
[1:32:45] if you look at the headlight on the
[1:32:46] front he gave it a black eye oh you know
[1:32:48] like there's a little bit of pen around
[1:32:50] the front headlight which is hilarious
[1:32:54] yeah look at that that's funny that's a
[1:32:56] great detail
[1:32:57] was that on the notes or did you just
[1:32:58] notice that and that's not a paint
[1:33:00] that's a wrap
[1:33:01] yeah yeah yeah i was surprised by that
[1:33:03] that's a wrap that's
[1:33:04] amazing it's funny to me i think
[1:33:07] it would really sell it if it was moving
[1:33:10] because the proportions of it are so
[1:33:11] odd it looks odd it looks like a like a
[1:33:14] washing machine sitting there
[1:33:16] you know i mean i don't mean that
[1:33:18] insulting i mean it looks like but to
[1:33:19] see that moving
[1:33:20] like doing an autocross and going that's
[1:33:23] what would really sell it because
[1:33:25] it's such an odd shape yeah it's so it's
[1:33:28] so
[1:33:28] not proportional yeah i think that makes
[1:33:30] it fun
[1:33:31] that's a really good point rolling in
[1:33:34] rolling and starting to cut you off
[1:33:35] moment of silence here
[1:33:36] look at this thing gripping it's ripping
[1:33:38] this is
[1:33:39] uh i mean this is you know jd yeah
[1:33:43] jdm meets gdm it's edm playing on the
[1:33:46] radio man this thing is all over the
[1:33:48] place
[1:33:48] i love this thing right i mean this
[1:33:50] thing's beating the beat we're going old
[1:33:51] school this 07 porsche cayman
[1:33:53] s this is owned by dion mascuna i
[1:33:55] believe i'm sorry if i butchered your
[1:33:57] last name but
[1:33:57] we're not butching your car at all
[1:33:58] because this thing is just dripping
[1:34:01] style we'll break it down here i
[1:34:02] i really love this car but dion over to
[1:34:05] you tell us a little more
[1:34:07] hey guys dion moscone and i here in
[1:34:08] fountain valley california welcome to my
[1:34:10] garage
[1:34:11] behind me is my 2007 fandom cayman
[1:34:14] s now if i had to describe this car in
[1:34:16] one of two senses it's a bit hard but
[1:34:18] essentially i took on this project as as
[1:34:21] kind of like a diy
[1:34:23] build only at home no help from shops
[1:34:26] and i think i did good when i initially
[1:34:28] got this car in 2015
[1:34:30] it was already eight years old i surfed
[1:34:33] the web
[1:34:34] uh saturday night by sunday i already
[1:34:35] found my car drove over there
[1:34:37] checked it out clean bodies straight so
[1:34:40] i'm like all right
[1:34:40] this is the car and then five years
[1:34:42] later is what you see right here
[1:34:44] how would i feel if my car is mortalized
[1:34:46] as a hot wheel well
[1:34:47] it would be amazing because growing up
[1:34:49] all i did was just buy hot wheels
[1:34:51] collect hot wheels you know i got the
[1:34:52] trucks the wagons the rat rods the hot
[1:34:55] rods the
[1:34:55] goofy cars that you see on tv and
[1:34:58] i played with them all it would be
[1:35:00] awesome for my my car to become one of
[1:35:01] those hot wheels because growing up
[1:35:03] you know that was kind of like my dream
[1:35:04] i wanted to build hot wheels cars
[1:35:06] uh for the road and this is why most of
[1:35:08] my cars look crazy
[1:35:11] fed get up here you're a porsche guy i i
[1:35:14] mean this thing
[1:35:15] is begging to be ripped on yeah so i'm
[1:35:18] gonna be super honest when i first saw
[1:35:20] this oh please lie to me
[1:35:22] i'm pretty you're pretty oh savage
[1:35:25] i'm out i'm being jay now um no
[1:35:28] when i first saw this when i first saw
[1:35:30] this uh i didn't like it
[1:35:32] on the screen or on paper but when you
[1:35:34] see it in person
[1:35:35] to me it was a little bit too boy racer
[1:35:37] but you see it in person and it is
[1:35:39] insane like the details uh like you're
[1:35:42] saying are insane if you look at the
[1:35:43] back suspension the moton canisters
[1:35:44] there
[1:35:45] just super well done the fact that the
[1:35:47] um the hood you can lift the trunk and
[1:35:49] the wing
[1:35:50] can still stay there and it's a it's a
[1:35:51] custom custom wing assembly just the cnc
[1:35:53] you still see it was milled
[1:35:55] right nice yeah right totally raw it's
[1:35:57] raw material it's amazing this thing is
[1:35:59] super super sweet and i like the the
[1:36:01] tonal the tonal outside of the hive is
[1:36:03] so
[1:36:04] silver next to kind of the gunmetal next
[1:36:06] to the gunmetal there but the hive is
[1:36:08] i'm a sucker for that because that's
[1:36:09] racing you know to me if you said to me
[1:36:11] this was a factory race car
[1:36:13] i would have guessed oh this come from
[1:36:15] porsche i mean it's probably the most
[1:36:19] like what can i say professional
[1:36:21] designed car we've seen today in the
[1:36:24] sense that it looks like
[1:36:25] it came out of it says porsche
[1:36:28] intelligent performance
[1:36:29] it looks it looks like it came from the
[1:36:31] factory it looks like you
[1:36:32] if you drove this into one of those
[1:36:34] porsche only meets
[1:36:35] with the 917s i think people would think
[1:36:38] this was some kind of factory race car
[1:36:39] yeah the function
[1:36:40] the function is the fashion yeah that's
[1:36:42] where you kind of like hat tip dtm
[1:36:44] meets pikes peak yeah i might lose the
[1:36:46] white wall tire i might
[1:36:48] lose that part of it doesn't quite work
[1:36:50] for me but the rest of it the way the
[1:36:52] flares are i mean each
[1:36:55] each one of these is beautifully
[1:36:58] you know beautifully done yeah uh i mean
[1:37:01] the fit and finish is amazing
[1:37:04] and it does look like a a factory race
[1:37:06] car you know a little slot lined well
[1:37:08] yeah you know these kind of things the
[1:37:10] four gt houses you can barely get like a
[1:37:12] wendy single paddy i know what's going
[1:37:16] on
[1:37:18] again that's your stick you got to own
[1:37:20] it man some of my fries
[1:37:23] but it does it looks like it looks like
[1:37:25] it came somebody flew it from germany
[1:37:27] and dropped it off here
[1:37:28] but also it went through japan because
[1:37:30] it's got work meisters on the corners
[1:37:32] that's a proper jdm wheel you'd love on
[1:37:34] your z
[1:37:34] right i'm drooling right now these
[1:37:36] wheels are so clean i didn't even notice
[1:37:38] the white wall tires because the wheels
[1:37:40] are so clean i've been staring at them
[1:37:42] the entire time but another thing that i
[1:37:43] really like on this car is kind of like
[1:37:45] i guess the livery how subtle it is but
[1:37:48] oh you know what what is it what does it
[1:37:50] say does anybody can anybody see it
[1:37:52] it's worse it has a word i think it says
[1:37:53] porsche intelligence performance
[1:37:55] actually that's that's a great point we
[1:37:56] didn't even talk about the livery
[1:37:58] kind of subtlety of that it says
[1:37:59] something what is it what does it mean
[1:38:01] it's
[1:38:01] like national treasure i feel like i
[1:38:03] feel like nick cage what does it mean
[1:38:07] can you dissect that what's it say uh
[1:38:09] gran turismo
[1:38:13] all right you're still working on that
[1:38:14] rap i get it it's all good it's all good
[1:38:16] cohesive it says cohesive adhesive uh i
