- UP NEXT ON AMERICAN
RESTORATION...

LET'S SEE WHAT YOU GOT.

- I'VE COME TO RICK'S TODAY

TO HAVE HIM LOOK AT
MY '67 HONDA SCRAMBLER.

- WOW. IT WAS DIRT AND STREET?

- OH, YEAH.

- THIS THING WAS CUTTING
EDGE BACK IN THE DAY.

- YOU ABSOLUTELY POSITIVE
WE'RE IN THE RIGHT SPOT?

- I KNOW WHAT WE'RE DOING.

IT'S GONNA BE LIKE FINDING
A NEEDLE IN A HAYSTACK,

BUT WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO DO IT.



- ♪ SITTING HERE
WASHING THE TRUCK ♪

MAN, WATER COMING
THROUGH THIS LIKE NOTHING.

BRETTLY!

- REMEMBER BACK IN THE DAY
WHEN THINGS WERE MADE BY HAND

AND PEOPLE TOOK
PRIDE IN THEIR WORK?

MY NAME'S RICK DALE,

AND I BRING THESE
THINGS BACK TO LIFE.

EVERY RESTORATION HAS
ITS OWN SET OF CHALLENGES.

THERE'S NO OWNER'S
MANUAL FOR WHAT WE DO,

BUT THERE'S NO JOB
WE CAN'T HANDLE.

I REALLY LOVE COMING
TO WORK EVERY DAY,

ESPECIALLY ON DAYS LIKE THIS,

WHEN A CUSTOMER ROLLS
IN WITH A MOTORCYCLE

ON THE BACK OF HIS TRUCK.



- I'M DON.
- DON, GREAT TO MEET YOU.

LET'S SEE WHAT YOU GOT.

- I'VE COME TO RICK'S TODAY

TO HAVE HIM LOOK AT MY
1967 HONDA SCRAMBLER

AND SEE IF HE CAN
GET IT FULLY RESTORED.

I WANT TO RESTORE IT
'CAUSE THIS IS BASICALLY

THE FIRST THING I EVER
BOUGHT WITH MY OWN MONEY.

- SO WHERE DID YOU GET THIS?

- I BOUGHT IT NEW.

- YOU BOUGHT IT BRAND-NEW?
- BRAND-NEW.

IT'S A GARAGE BIKE.

- OH, YOU'VE HAD IT
GARAGED THE WHOLE TIME.

- YEAH.
- WOW.

- IT'S GOT 1,700 MILES.

- THERE'S NO MILES ON IT.
- THERE ARE NO MILES.

- WOW.

- THE ONLY THING I DON'T
HAVE IS A FRONT FENDER.

RAN INTO A TREE, I THINK.

BEEN THERE.

- HAVEN'T STARTED IT SINCE '74.

I JUST WANT TO SEE
IF IT'S STILL LOOSE.

- KICKS UP.

OH, YEAH, THAT'S A GOOD SIGN.

THIS THING LOOKS A LITTLE ROUGH,

BUT IT'S GOT LOW MILEAGE.

AND THE KICK START MOVED FREELY,

WHICH MEANS THE
ENGINE ISN'T LOCKED UP.

SHE MAY BE UGLY NOW,

BUT AFTER A LOT OF WORK,

I THINK THIS BIKE IS
GONNA BE AMAZING.

SO THIS IS A 305?

- 305 SCRAMBLER.

- AND THIS WAS AN ENDURO, YES?

IT WAS DIRT AND STREET?

- OH, YEAH.

NOT REALLY GREAT ON THE DIRT,

BUT YOU COULD GO THERE.

NOT GREAT IN THE STREET,
BUT YOU COULD RIDE IT THERE.

- YEAH, THEY PUT THE
PIPES UP IN THE AIR

SO YOU COULD RIDE
THE THING IN THE DIRT.

THEY WERE HEADING IN THE
DIRECTION OF THE DIRT BIKE,

IS WHAT THEY WERE DOING.
- EXACTLY.

IT'S FUN TO RIDE, THOUGH.

- RIDING BIKES IS
FREEDOM, YOU KNOW?

IT REALLY, REALLY IS.

I GET SUPER STRESSED AND STUFF,

I GET ON MY BIKE, YEAH,
IT'S GONE, IT'S GONE.

LIKE, INSTANT RELIEVER.

WHAT'S YOUR IDEA?

TOTALLY ORIGINAL?

- I THINK SO.

- I MEAN, NO EXTRA FRILLS.

- PERFECT.
- OKAY?

I MEAN, IT'S PLENTY
UGLY RIGHT NOW.

WE TEAR EVERYTHING DOWN
THAT MOVES, EIGHT HOURS.

PIECES GET SENT TO
THE CHROME SHOP.

WE'LL TAKE ALL THE SPOKES OUT,

GO THROUGH THE BRAKES.

AND WE'LL END UP PAINTING
ALL THE BLACK PARTS FIRST,

THE FRAME, THE
FORK, THE HEAD LAMP.

THEN WE GO TO ASSEMBLY.
PROBABLY EIGHT HOURS.

AFTER ALL IS SAID AND DONE,

6,800.

- BOY, YOU KNOW, IN
'67 WHEN I BOUGHT THIS,

IT WAS 1,900 BUCKS.

- WOW.

- WHEN RICK QUOTED
ME 6,500 BUCKS,

I'M GOING, DUDE, I
PAID 1,900 FOR IT, '67.

SO CAN YOU DO IT FOR 1,900?

- WELL, IN 1967, $1,900
PROBABLY WAS $6,800 NOW.

- OKAY. ALL RIGHT, LET'S DO IT.

THIS SCRAMBLER IS REALLY COOL.

AND LUCKILY, IT LOOKS LIKE
IT HAS MOST OF ITS PARTS,

ALL BUT THE FRONT FENDER,

WHICH COULD BE A
REAL CHALLENGE TO FIND.

ALL RIGHT, GUYS, LET'S GO AHEAD

AND START TEARING
THIS THING APART.

KEEP IN MIND, THIS GUY
WANTS THIS THING BONE STOCK,

TOTALLY ORIGINAL, LIKE IT
CAME OFF THE SHOWROOM FLOOR.

ALL RIGHT?
- YEP.

- A CUSTOMER DROPPED
OFF A 1967 HONDA SCRAMBLER

THAT WE NEED TO GET TORN DOWN

SO WE CAN REALLY GET
CRANKING ON THIS RESTORATION.

LET'S JUST GET
THE BIG STUFF FIRST,

AND THEN WE'LL GET
THE HARD STUFF LATER.

ANYTHING IN HONDA,

YOU'RE USING, LIKE, FOUR
DIFFERENT WRENCHES, YOU KNOW?

- UH-HUH.
- THAT'S IT.

THAT'S ALL YOU NEED.

YOU GUYS GOT IT.

- YOU GOT THAT?
- YEAH.

WHOOP. OH.

- IT'S OFF.

- I WAS GONNA GIVE
YOU A LUBRICANT.

- RICK, DON'S HERE TO SEE YOU.

- OKAY.

- HEY, RICK, GOOD TO
MEET YOU. HOW ARE YOU?

- GOOD TO MEET YOU, DON.

WHAT IS THAT THING?

- WELL, THIS IS A 1960s

TWA LIGHT-UP SIGN

THAT WENT AT THE
BASE OF THE STAIRS

THAT THEY'D ROLL
UP TO THE AIRPLANES.

- SO THIS WAS
BASICALLY SOMETHING

THAT WAS IN FRONT OF THE PLANE
WHERE YOU WALKED UP THE STEPS

BECAUSE YOU LITERALLY HAD TO
CHECK FOR YOUR FLIGHT OUTSIDE.

- YEAH, AND THIS WAS
LIKE THAT LAST CHECK

TO MAKE SURE YOU'RE
GETTING ON THAT RIGHT PLANE.

- THAT'S AWESOME.
THAT'S AWESOME.

- WHEN I WAS A KID,

I WAS ALWAYS
INTERESTED IN AVIATION.

LATER ON IN LIFE,
I GOT INTERESTED

IN ANTIQUE ADVERTISING.

SO WHEN I SAW THIS
SIGN, I HAD TO HAVE IT.

- TWA WAS IN THEIR HEYDAY

BETWEEN THE '60s AND '70s.

WHEN YOU GOT ON THE PLANE,

YOU WOULD DRESS UP.

I MEAN, YOU WOULD
BE IN A SUIT AND A TIE.

EVERYBODY DRESSED
UP. IT WAS A BIG DEAL.

JUST LIKE WHEN THE
CRUISES CAME OUT

BACK IN THE EARLY... YOU
KNOW, IN THE '10s AND THE '20s.

BACK THEN, YOU KNOW,
PEOPLE WERE IMPRESSED

WITH JUST FLYING,
PERIOD, YOU KNOW?

AND THEN NOW THINGS
HAVE TOTALLY CHANGED.

THIS SORT OF TURNED INTO A BUST.

BACK IN THE '60s,
COMMERCIAL AIR TRAVEL

WAS NOTHING LIKE IT IS TODAY.

THERE WEREN'T ANY
GATES OR DIGITAL DISPLAYS

WITH YOUR FLIGHT INFO

OR EVEN AIR BRIDGES WHEN
YOU BOARDED THE PLANE.

YOU HAD TO WALK
OUT ON THE TARMAC

AND CLIMB A FLIGHT OF STAIRS

JUST TO BOARD YOUR FLIGHT.

SO HOW ARE YOU THINKING ABOUT
GETTING THIS THING RESTORED?

- IT LOOKS PRETTY GOOD EXCEPT
FOR THE LETTERING, THE "TWA."

SO IF THERE'S SOME
WAY YOU COULD GO IN

AND RETOUCH THE TWA IN THERE.

- WHAT I'LL DO IS,
I'LL TAPE THESE OFF,

MASK IT ALL OFF.

WE'LL SHOOT IT,
WE'LL LIGHT IT UP,

AND SEE WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE.

DOES IT WORK?

- I HAVEN'T TESTED IT,

BUT THE GATE AGENT
COULD ACTUALLY COME OVER

AND TURN THESE LITTLE
WHEELS AT THE BOTTOM,

WHICH ARE SORT OF SEIZED UP.

THAT'S WHY I NEED YOU.

- YEAH, NEEDS TO BE
PROBABLY BATTERY-OPERATED.

SO WHEN WE GET INSIDE
THIS, WE'LL TEST THAT.

THESE ARE COOL HERE,

HOW THEY LITERALLY
ADJUST EVERYTHING.

SO WE'LL GET THOSE ALL WORKING.

AND THEN MAKE IT ALL LIGHT.

- YEAH, THAT'S
WHAT I'M THINKING.

- TOTAL RESTORATION...

GET THE THING
SANDBLASTED, PAINTED,

NEW GLASS, FIX THE RUBBER,

MAKE THE THING WORK,
AND ASSEMBLING IT...

I'M LOOKING RIGHT
AROUND 1,500 TOTAL.

- 1,500, HUH?

- I'M AFRAID OF THE INSIDE,
TO BE QUITE HONEST.

IT'S LIKE ANY PIECE THAT WE DO.

UNTIL YOU OPEN THAT THING,

YOU KNOW, IT'S ALL
LIKE A CRAP SHOOT

TILL WE GET GOING ON IT.

- YEAH.

- NOW, GRANTED, IF IT'S LESS,

I'M NOT GONNA HIT
YOU; IT COULD GO DOWN.

- OKAY, ALL RIGHT.

- SO WHAT DO YOU THINK?

- GO FOR IT.

- YEAH?
- YEAH, LET'S DO IT.

- OKAY.

- I'M REALLY EXCITED ABOUT
SEEING HOW THIS PIECE COMES OUT,

AND I'M REALLY INTERESTED IN
SEEING WHAT RICK COMES UP WITH.

- THANK YOU VERY
MUCH FOR BRINGING IT.

- THANK YOU.

- OKAY, LET'S GO IN THE OFFICE

- HEY, BRETTLY.
- WHAT'S UP?

- I NEED YOU TO WASH MY TRUCK.

I MEAN, THAT LAST WIND
STORM JUST DESTROYED IT.

IT'S FILTHY, AND I NEED
YOU TO GO WASH IT.

AND IT NEEDS TO BE HAND-WASHED.

- OKAY.
- NOT THROUGH A CAR WASH.

NOT ONE OF THOSE THINGS
THAT GOT THE BRUSHES.

YOU'LL JUST SCRATCH IT ALL UP.

- OKAY.
- ALL RIGHT?

NORMALLY, I HAND-WASH MY TRUCK.

BUT RECENTLY, THE
SHOP'S BEEN SO BUSY,

I JUST DON'T HAVE TIME.

SO I'M GONNA HAVE
BRETTLY TAKE MY BABY OUT

AND GET 'ER WASHED.

GET GOING.

- AM I PAYING WITH MY OWN MONEY?

- THAT'LL BE THE DAY.

- SURE WILL.

I DON'T THINK THIS IS ENOUGH.

IT'S MORE EXPENSIVE
NOW THESE DAYS.

I DON'T KNOW WHEN THE LAST
TIME YOU GOT A CAR WASHED.

- DON'T BE SUCH A SMART-ASS.

- GIVE ME THAT BACK.

- ALL RIGHT, THIS WILL DO.

I'LL GO GET IT DONE.

- ALL RIGHT.
- ALL RIGHT.

- HURRY IT UP. DON'T HURT IT.

- ALL RIGHT.

- CAREFUL.
- ALL RIGHT.

- DON'T DAWDLE EITHER.

- DAWDLE?

- DON'T TAKE ALL DAY.

- ALL RIGHT.

AH, THIS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT.

- A CUSTOMER BROUGHT
IN THIS OLD TWA SIGN

TO GET FIXED UP.

I'VE NEVER SEEN
ANYTHING LIKE THIS BEFORE,

SO I'M GONNA TEAR IT DOWN

AND SEE WHAT THE MECHANISM
ON THE INSIDE LOOKS LIKE.

HO!

HOW DOES THIS WORK?

THERE USED TO BE A PLUG HERE.

AND THEN YOU JUST PLUGGED IT IN,

AND IT LIT UP ALL THESE.

IT'S ALL ON ONE CIRCUIT.

SO YOU TWIST THIS
ONE TO GIVE IT SLACK,

THEN TWIST THAT
ONE TO TIGHTEN IT UP.

SO THAT'S WHY THERE'S
TWO KNOBS FOR EACH,

'CAUSE IF YOU WERE
TO ONLY TWIST ONE,

YOU WOULD RIP IT.

AND IF I RIP IT,

I'M GONNA GET RIPPED IN HALF.

- I THINK IT'S KIND OF
COOL RICK TRUSTS ME

TO TAKE HIS BABY OUT.

SO I'M GONNA MAKE SURE
EVERYTHING GOES NICE AND SMOOTH

WHILE IT'S GETTING
ALL PRETTIED UP.

AH-HA-HA.

I LOVE MY JOB.

♪ SITTING AT THE CAR WASH ♪

♪ NOW I'M GONNA
EAT ME SOME FOOD ♪

MAN, THIS IS AWESOME.

- THINGS ARE REALLY FLYING

ON THIS TWA SIGN RESTORATION.

TYLER JUST BLASTED
IT WITH CHARCOAL.

NOW I'M GONNA
SPRAY IT BRIGHT WHITE.

ONCE THE BASE COAT DRIES,

WE'RE GONNA ADD SOME
RED STRIPES ON THE SIDE

TO COMPLIMENT THE TWA LOGO.

AND THIS SIGN IS
GONNA LOOK FANTASTIC.

STEP-BY-STEP,

THINGS ARE COMING TOGETHER
ON THIS HONDA SCRAMBLER.

OUR BIGGEST PROBLEM NOW

IS TRYING TO FIND
THE FRONT FENDER

THAT WAS MISSING.

TYLER'S ALWAYS ASKING

FOR MORE RESPONSIBILITY
AROUND HERE,

SO I FIGURE FINDING
THIS FRONT FENDER

WOULD BE A GOOD OPPORTUNITY
TO SHOW ME WHAT HE'S GOT.

- WHEN MY DAD ASKED
ME TO FIND A FENDER

FOR THE BIKE WE HAVE IN,

I FIGURED, HOW HARD COULD IT BE?

GO TO A SCRAP
YARD, FIND A FENDER,

AND, BOOM, TYLER SAVES THE DAY.

- YOU ABSOLUTELY POSITIVE
WE'RE IN THE RIGHT SPOT?

- I KNOW WHAT WE'RE DOING.
WE'RE IN THE RIGHT PLACE.

- YOU BETTER BE RIGHT.
- I AM.

- THIS IS A LONG DRIVE.

NOT TO MENTION, I
HAD TO PUT SHOES ON.

- NOT ONLY DID I FIND THE
BEST SCRAP YARD IN NEVADA;

IT'S DEFINITELY THE
MOST ORGANIZED TOO.

THIS SHOULD BE CAKE.

- TYLER, THIS PLACE IS
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING.

IT'S HUGE, IT'S MASSIVE.

HOW THE HELL ARE WE GONNA
FIND A LITTLE FENDER IN ALL THIS?

- IT'S GONNA BE LIKE FINDING
A NEEDLE IN A HAYSTACK,

BUT WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO DO IT.

SO MUCH CRAP.

- HEY, HOLD ON.

- WHAT IS THAT?

YEAH, NO.

UNLESS IT'S A REALLY,
REALLY SKINNY TIRE.

- THAT'S NOT A FENDER.

HOW DO YOU PEOPLE WEAR SHOES?

MY FEET ARE SO FRICKIN' HOT.

- OH, WHAT'S THIS?

OH, GOT IT.

WHAT'S THAT? NO?

- THAT IS NOT A FENDER.

- YOU SURE?

- NOT A FENDER.

LIMBO UNDER THERE.

- GONNA BREAK MY NOSE.

OH, YOU'RE SUCH A CHEATER.

YOU SUCK.

WE'VE GOT EVERYTHING BUT
MOTORCYCLE PARTS IN HERE.

- TRUST ME. JUST TRUST ME.

OH, MY GOD.

- I'LL BE BACK IN
A MINUTE, DUDE.

- LET'S GO.

- WHILE RON AND TYLER ARE
SEARCHING FOR THE FRONT FENDER,

I HAD JEFF TAKE APART THE ENGINE

ON THE HONDA SCRAMBLER.

NOW KOWBOY'S BEAD
GLASSING SOME OF THE PARTS

SO THAT PHIL CAN GET
THE BODYWORK STARTED

AND PREPPED AND READY FOR PAINT.

- WE'VE BEEN OUT
AT THE SALVAGE YARD

FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS NOW,

TRYING TO FIND THIS FRONT FENDER

FOR A MOTORCYCLE
WE'RE RESTORING.

I AM GONNA KILL YOU.

- AND NOW MY UNCLE RON
IS DELAYING US EVEN MORE

WITH HIS LITTLE PIT STOP.

RUH!

- YOU'RE AN ASS.

- ARE YOU READY? LET'S GO.

- NOT ONE MOTORCYCLE
PART IN THIS ENTIRE AREA.

- I'M ASSUMING WE'RE
JUST GONNA HAVE TO ASK.

I MEAN, I DON'T KNOW
WHERE ELSE TO LOOK.

- HEY, WHERE THE
MOTORCYCLE PARTS AT, MAN?

- WHAT'S THAT?

- WHERE THE MOTORCYCLE PARTS AT?

- WE DON'T HAVE ANY
MOTORCYCLE PARTS.

WE HAVEN'T HAD ANY FOR YEARS.

- FOR YEARS.

YOU'RE AN ASS.

I ALMOST HATE YOU RIGHT NOW.

- HOW I WAS SUPPOSED TO KNOW

THEY DIDN'T HAVE ANY
MOTORCYCLE PARTS?

IT'S A SCRAP YARD.

ALL RIGHT, YOU GONNA
TELL RICK ABOUT THIS?

- NO, I THINK YOU
SHOULD TELL HIM.

- MAN, I'M PUTTING MY
SOCKS RIGHT IN YOUR NOSE.

- EARLIER, RICK SENT ME
OUT TO WASH HIS TRUCK.

RICK GAVE ME 20 BUCKS,

AND IT ONLY COST TEN.

SO NOW I GET TO
EAT MY FREE LUNCH

WITH MY GOOD FRIEND
HEINEKA THE HORSE.

I LOVE THAT HORSE.

ALL DONE.

- IT'S A HONDA 305
SCRAMBLER FROM 1967,

AND I NEED THE FRONT FENDER.

WHEN MY DAD PUT ME IN
CHARGE OF FINDING THIS FENDER,

I THOUGHT IT WAS GONNA BE CAKE.

WE STRUCK OUT AT MY ONLY LEAD,

SO NOW I HAVE TO CALL
EVERY POSSIBLE LEAD IN VEGAS.

THIS SUCKS, BUT I REALLY
DON'T WANT TO FAIL.

- WE CAN'T LET A MISSING
FENDER SLOW US DOWN,

SO JEFF'S RE-SPOKING
THE CHROME RIMS,

AND I'M PAINTING ALL THE PARTS.

- NOW, IN WHAT WAY
AM I GONNA BE ABLE

TO BLAME THIS ON RON?

- WITHOUT THE FENDER,

I DON'T KNOW WHAT
WE'RE GONNA DO.

I REALLY DON'T HAVE THE
TIME TO RECREATE THIS FENDER.

- OH, MY GOD, YOU'RE A SAINT.

- TWA, BABY.

- A LITTLE WHILE AGO,
WE GOT A TWA SIGN

THAT WAS IN REALLY ROUGH SHAPE.

SINCE THEN WE'VE ALMOST
COMPLETELY BROUGHT

THIS THING BACK TO LIFE.

NOW I GOT KYLE AND
KOWBOY WORKING ON THE GUTS

OF THIS LITTLE BEAUTY

SO IT CAN BE READY
FOR REASSEMBLY.

- OKAY.

OKAY.

52, 42.

- FLIGHT 5242
DEPARTING LAS VEGAS.

- THE TWA SIGN IS READY TO GO,

AND THE CUSTOMER JUST PULLED UP.

- GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN.

CAME DOWN TODAY TO
PICK UP MY 1960s TWA SIGN.

- SO YOU READY?

- OH, YEAH, CAN'T WAIT
TO SEE WHAT YOU GOT.

- OKAY, COME ON OVER HERE.

- WHEN I DROPPED OFF THE SIGN,

IT WAS IN REALLY
RUSTED-OUT SHAPE.

SO I GET TO SEE IT NOW?

- YEAH, YEAH.

- IT'S TALLER THAN I THOUGHT.

- YEAH. STILL READY?

- YEAH.
- OKAY HERE WE GO.

- OH, MAN.

- WHAT DO YOU THINK?

- HOLY COW.

- YOU LIKE IT?
- INCREDIBLE.

INCREDIBLE.

IT'S JUST, LIKE,
LARGER THAN LIFE.

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT.

I CAN'T BELIEVE WHAT
THIS THING LOOKS LIKE.

I MEAN, IT LOOKS
BETTER THAN NEW.

- WE ENDED UP SHOOTING
THE WHITE ON FIRST.

WE DID THE RED STRIPES,

AND THEN WE PUT
CLEAR COAT ON IT,

SO THAT MAKES IT POP LIKE THAT.

THE OLD RUBBER THAT WAS
ON THERE WAS CRACKED.

WE ENDED UP FINDING
THE EXACT SAME RUBBER,

SO WE PUT THAT BACK ON THERE.

- I WAS WONDERING
ABOUT THE GRAPHICS.

THAT LOOKS LIKE
THE ORIGINAL ONE,

BUT ONLY BRAND NEW.

YOU EVEN CAPTURED THE
METALLIC IN THAT GOLD.

- YEAH, DETAIL'S VERY IMPORTANT.

SEE THESE KNOBS DOWN HERE?

- THEY WERE ALL FROZEN UP.

- NOW THESE ACTUALLY CHANGE.

IT USED TO SIT ON
SOMETHING AT ONE POINT.

WE ENDED UP MAKING
A STAND FOR IT.

- THE CHROME REALLY
BRINGS SOMETHING TO IT.

IT'S INCREDIBLE.

- ALL RIGHT, SO YOU HAPPY, DON?

- INCREDIBLY HAPPY.

- AWESOME.
- THANKS, MAN.

- WELL, THAT'S
THE BIGGEST THING.

THAT'S MORE THAN THE MONEY,

BUT THERE IS SOME MONEY.

SO LET'S COME IN HERE

AND LET'S FILL IT OUT.

- ALL IN ALL, I AM SO PLEASED

THAT I BROUGHT THIS TO RICK.

THIS PIECE LOOKS SO GOOD

THAT NOW ALL I NEED IS AN
AIRCRAFT IN MY BASEMENT

- HEY, PHIL.
- HI.

- HERE'S THE FENDER
FOR THE SCRAMBLER.

RICK NEEDS THIS DONE RIGHT AWAY.

CAN YOU DO IT?

- YEAH.

- THE FENDER FOR
THE HONDA SCRAMBLER

THAT TYLER TRACKED
DOWN IS VINTAGE,

SO IT'S GONNA NEED A LITTLE
BODY WORK AND SOME PAINT

BEFORE WE CAN PUT IT ON.

LUCKILY, MY GUYS ARE AWESOME,

BUT THE CLOCK IS REALLY TICKING.

EARLIER, I HAD BRETTLY
GO GET MY TRUCK WASHED.

I JUST HOPE HE TOOK
GOOD CARE OF MY BABY.

BRETTLY!

ONE OF THE BIGGEST HEADACHES
ON THE HONDA SCRAMBLER

HAS BEEN FINDING
AN AUTHENTIC FENDER.

NOW THAT THE SCRAMBLER
IS SHINED AND REASSEMBLED,

WE'RE READY TO SHOW IT OFF.

I JUST HOPE THE
CUSTOMER LIKES IT

AS MUCH AS I DO.

- HOW YOU DOING? I'M DON.

I'M HERE FOR THE SCRAMBLER.

- OH, YEAH, THE SCRAMBLER?

- WELL, I'M HERE AT RICK'S TODAY

TO PICK UP MY '67 SCRAMBLER
THAT I BOUGHT NEW

BACK IN 1967.

- LET ME GO GET, RICK.
- SURE, HEY, THANKS.

I'LL WAIT RIGHT HERE.

I'M REALLY EXCITED
TO SEE MY BIKE.

I'VE HEARD GOOD
THINGS ABOUT RICK,

SO I'M EXPECTING A LOT.

I HEAR SOMETHING.

HA-HA, ALL RIGHT.

- WELL?

- WELL, I'M IMPRESSED.

I FEEL LIKE EASY RIDER NOW.

- OH, MAN.
- CHECK IT OUT.

KICK THE TIRES.

- OH, I JUST LIKE...
I, LIKE... I'M... WOW.

THIS IS... THIS IS REALLY NICE.

YOU KNOW, WHEN RICK
RODE THAT BIKE OUT,

BOY, IT LOOKED BETTER THAN NEW.

I'M NOT KIDDING.

THE BIKE LOOKS BETTER
NOW THAN IT DID THEN,

AND RICK DID A GREAT JOB.

- LET ME SAY THE
THINGS THAT I'VE DONE.

- YEAH, I WANT TO KNOW.

- THERE'S NOTHING
THAT WE DIDN'T DO.

FROM WIRING, ALL THE FORK SEALS.

THE MOTOR WAS
REBORED. NEW PISTONS.

THE BRAKES, ALL THE CHROME.

WE PAINTED EVERYTHING
WITH THE ORIGINAL SILVER.

WE ZINC-PLATED ALL THE SPOKES.

- I LIKE THAT THE
SPOKES ARE DULL. I DO.

BECAUSE THE RIM IS SHINY ENOUGH.

- DIDN'T HAVE A FENDER.

AND MY SON TYLER,

LITERALLY, HE LOOKED EVERYWHERE.

HE FOUND THE FENDER
AND THE BRACKET.

- I LIKE THE FACT
THAT RICK WAS TRUE

TO THE MANUFACTURER.

AND THAT'S WHAT I WANTED.

I DIDN'T WANT
ANYTHING OUTLANDISH.

I DIDN'T WANT PINSTRIPES.

I JUST WANTED IT
STRAIGHT THE WAY

IT CAME FROM THE FACTORY,

AND THAT'S WHAT RICK DID.

CAN I TAKE IT FOR A SPIN, RICKY?

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE?

- GET ON.
- ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT.

IT WAS DOWN, UP, UP, UP, RIGHT?

- YEAH.

THIS IS WHAT MAKES ALL THE
HARD WORK WORTHWHILE...

SEEING SOMEONE
TURN BACK THE CLOCK

WITH AN OFF-THE-SHOWROOM-FLOOR
RESTORATION.

MAKES ME WANT TO TAKE
A LONG RIDE ON MY BIKE.

- RIDING IT FOR THE FIRST TIME,
BOY, IT BROUGHT BACK MEMORIES.

I WAS 21 AGAIN.

- YOU LIKE IT?
- I DO, I DO.

SO HOW MUCH ARE AT?

- YOU KNOW, WE HAD HOURS
AND HOURS OF RESEARCH

TRYING TO FIND
PARTS ON THE PHONE.

TYLER'S RUNNING AROUND.

TOTAL RESTORATION
COST IS GONNA BE...

I'M RIGHT AT BUDGET.

RIGHT AT $6,800.

- PERFECT, PERFECT, GREAT JOB.

- I'M REALLY GLAD YOU LIKE IT.

- OH, I AM TOO.
- YEAH, I LOVE IT.

AWESOME.

LET'S GO INSIDE, AND WE'LL
TAKE CARE OF SOME PAPERWORK.

- WHEN I BOUGHT IT, WE
WERE GONNA GO ON A TRIP.

A GUY GOT HURT. WE DIDN'T GO.

WENT IN THE SERVICE.

SAT AROUND.

NOW I WANT TO MAYBE
TAKE THAT TRIP NOW.
