Speed Is the New Black (2017–…): Season 2, Episode 1 - Heavy Metal Model A - full transcript
A rock star client calls on Noah to give a Ford Model A some heavy metal attitude. This old school ride gets some new school hot rod edge as the team works to turn this into rock and roll on wheels.
Scott:
HOT RODS COMING YOUR WAY,
TEARING UP
A NEIGHBORHOOD NEAR YOU.
Noah: COMING UP, A '31 MODEL A
GETS THE ROCK-STAR TREATMENT.
I NEED A HOT ROD
IN MY LIFE.
IT'S HEAVY METAL...
- IT JUST LOOKS MEAN.
...HEMI POWER,
AND AN EARSPLITTING RIDE.
GET READY FOR
AN ALL-ACCESS PASS...
A WHOLE LOT
OF DRILLING.
...TO HOT ROD HEAVEN.

DALE IS ONE OF MY
BUSIEST CLIENTS.
HE'S THE BASSIST FOR SEETHER,
A SOUTH AFRICAN ROCK BAND.
THEY'VE SOLD MILLIONS
OF RECORDS WORLDWIDE.
WHEN HE'S NOT PLAYING FAST,
PRETTY SURE HE'S DRIVING FAST.
SO I'M EXCITED TO SEE WHAT HE'S
GOING TO BRING TO US TODAY.
WHAT'S GOING ON, DALE?
- WHAT'S UP, MAN?
- HOW ARE YOU?
- GOOD, AND YOURSELF?
- DOING WELL. GOOD TO SEE YOU.
- WHAT'S UP, DALE?
- HOW YOU DOING, MAN?

- HOW YOU DOING, MAN?
BROUGHT ONE IN, HUH?
I FOUND THIS '31
FORD UP IN WISCONSIN.
♪♪
SO DALE HAS BROUGHT US
A 1931 MODEL A.
BACK WHEN THEY FIRST STARTED
HOT RODDING THESE CARS,
THEY WERE SUPER,
SUPER CHEAP TO BUY.
YOU CUT THEM UP,
YOU MADE THEM YOUR OWN,
AND YOU MADE THEM FAST.
SO, FOR US,
THAT KIND OF LINES UP
WITH WHAT WE DO EVERY DAY
HERE AT CLASSIC CAR STUDIO.
IT'S ALSO A GREAT PIECE
OF HOT RODDING HISTORY.
SO, OBVIOUSLY, YOU'RE NOT
ON TOUR RIGHT NOW.
WHEN DO YOU GUYS GO OUT NEXT?
YEAH, MAN, SEETHER IS ON A
LITTLE BIT OF A BREAK RIGHT NOW.
SO, IN YOUR TIME OFF,
YOU'RE GOING TO NEED
SOMETHING FUN
TO DRIVE.
A FUN TOUR IS EASIER WHEN
YOU HAVE A LITTLE LIGHT
AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL.RIGHT.
AND, YOU KNOW, IF THERE'S
SOMETHING COOL
LIKE THIS
TO LOOK FORWARD TO...
I RESPECT WHAT YOU GUYS DO,
AND, YOU KNOW,
I LOVE EVERYTHING
YOU'VE DONE SO FAR, SO.
WHY HAVE YOU CHOSEN THIS CAR?
MAN, I NEED A HOT ROD
IN MY LIFE.
SO YOU'RE NOT LOOKING FOR ANY
KIND OF CRAZY SPORTS CAR FEEL.
YOU WANT TO BUILD
A STRAIGHT-UP HOT ROD?
YEAH, MAN.
I JUST WANT SOMETHING,
YOU KNOW, I CAN TAKE
LIGHT TO LIGHT...
RIGHT....AND MAKE A LOT OF NOISE.
I WANT IT TO LOOK
A LITTLE MEAN.
I WANT IT TO HAVE
AN ATTITUDE, YOU KNOW?
SO YOU GOING, LIKE, FULL-BLOWN
OPEN WHEEL HOT ROD,
NO FENDERS,
GREAT BIG MOTOR?
YEAH.
SOMETHING LOUD.
JUST, YOU KNOW,
BIG WHEELS AT THE BACK.
GIVE IT THAT
SORT OF FORWARD RAKE.
I WANT TO SEE
THE ENGINE AS WELL.
- ALL RIGHT.
- YEAH, THAT'S COOL.
YOU KNOW, I WANT TO HEAR
THAT ENGINE TOO.
YOU WANT TO SEE
THE ENGINE,
OR YOU WANT TO SEE
AROUND THE ENGINE?
I WANT TO SEE AROUND IT.ALL RIGHT, COOL.
I DON'T THINK IT'S THE KIND
OF CAR THAT'S MEANT TO BE,
YOU KNOW, TOO
COMFORTABLE TO DRIVE.
YOU KNOW, YOU WANT IT TO RIDE
A LITTLE BIT HARD.
YOU KNOW, YOU WANT THE STEERING
TO BE A LITTLE BIT HEAVY.
YOU WANT IT TO BE A LITTLE
CLUNKY GOING INTO THE GEARS.
YOU KNOW, THAT'S PART
OF ITS CHARM.
Noah: I'M PICTURING KIND OF
A RAW METAL CAR.
AND THEN MAYBE CHOOSE
AN ACCENT COLOR,
DO THE MOTOR IN THAT COLOR.
Charles:
HOW ABOUT A HEMI?
HEMI IS GOOD.AN OLD HEMI.
Noah: MAYBE WE COULD HAVE A
PRETTY BADASS BUILD ON OUR HANDS.
ABSOLUTELY.
YOU GUYS WANT TO LOOK
AT THE INTERIOR REAL QUICK?
SO WOULD WE BE ABLE
TO KEEP THE WOOD?
BECAUSE I KIND OF LIKE,
YOU KNOW,
THAT SORT OF OLD-SCHOOL
ASPECT OF THE WOOD.
INITIALLY, I WAS THINKING KIND
OF LIKE A BARE METAL OUTSIDE
AND A BARE METAL,
LIKE, REAL RAW LOOK.
AND THE WOOD COULD
ACTUALLY PLAY INTO THAT.
BUT THEN WHAT I WAS THINKING
IS IF WE COULD ACTUALLY RECREATE
THIS STRUCTURE IN REALLY,
REALLY NICE HARDWOOD.
YOU KNOW, IT'S GOT THAT REALLY
BADASS RAW METAL LOOK,
AND THEN THE WOOD KIND OF COULD
BE OUR LEVEL OF REFINEMENT.
IT'S GOING TO BE
PRETTY RAUNCHY.
PRETTY RAW, YEAH.
YEAH.
SO A LOT OF GUYS
HOT ROD THESE MODEL As,
BUT DALE'S CAR IS GOING
TO BE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.
WE'VE GOT A HUGE HEMI
UP FRONT WITH A BLOWER ON IT,
COMPLETELY ONE-OFF METAL
INTERIOR AND A HARDWOOD ROOF
THAT'S GOING TO
REALLY SET IT APART.
THIS THING IS GOING TO HAVE
THE STYLE AND BE STUPID FAST.
I THINK WE GOT
SOME GOOD DIRECTION.
AND WE'LL LET SCOTT
RUN AWAY WITH IT.
WE'LL MAKE IT COOL.
I WANT TO BE ONE OF THOSE
COOL OLD GUYS.
I DON'T WANT TO AGE GRACEFULLY.
I WANT TO GO OUT IN A FIREBALL
OF GASOLINE AND SMOKE
AND, "HE DIED DOING
WHAT HE LOVED, YOU KNOW,
RACING HIS HOT ROD
DOWN THE STREET."
♪♪
WE DON'T GET MANY
HOT RODS IN HERE,
SO I'M EXCITED TO GET
THIS CAR TORN DOWN
AND STRIPPED
TO BARE METAL
SO WE CAN GET STARTED
ON THE REAL STUFF.

ALL RIGHT.
HERE WE GO.

SO WE'RE ON ONE HELL
OF A FIELD TRIP TODAY
BECAUSE WE'RE GOING OUT
TO BUY A VINTAGE 331 HEMI.
WE DECIDED TO GO
WITH THIS 331 HEMI
BECAUSE IT IS THE BEST
CHOICE FOR THIS CAR.
IF YOU GO WITH A NEWER HEMI,
THEY'RE CUT DIFFERENTLY.
IT'S A WHOLE DIFFERENT
KIND OF ENGINE.
YOU KNOW, IT'S ALUMINUM HEADS.
IT DOESN'T LOOK VINTAGE AT ALL,
AND THAT JUST,
IN MY MIND, IT WOULD RUIN
THE WHOLE LOOK OF THE CAR.
IF YOU DON'T LIKE THAT,
I DON'T KNOW WHAT
THE HELL YOUR PROBLEM IS.
IT'S THE COOLEST THING
YOU COULD EVER HAVE.
♪♪
HOW'S IT GOING, DAVE?
HOW YOU DOING,
CHARLES?
NICE TO MEET YOU.
MARK.
HEY. NICE TO MEET YOU.
NICE TO MEET YOU.
HOW YOU GUYS DOING TODAY?
GOOD.
REAL GOOD.
MAN, YOU GOT ALL KINDS
OF COOL STUFF AROUND HERE.
I DIDN'T EXPECT TO WALK IN
AND SEE THAT.
YOU'VE GOT ENGINES EVERYWHERE.
YOU'VE GOT THIS ONE,
WHICH IS THE MOST IMPORTANT.
ABSOLUTELY.RIGHT?
SO THIS IS THE ONE
THAT I CALLED ABOUT.
IT IS.
THE 331.
331.WHAT YEAR IS THIS MOTOR?
DO YOU KNOW, BY CHANCE? THAT IS A 1956.
'56, OKAY, COOL.
SO IT'S NOT THE EARLIER ONE
WITH THE EXTENDED BELL HOUSING.
NO.IT'S THE SHORT HOUSING...
CORRECT.... OR THE SHORT BLOCK,
YOU KNOW, WHICH IS GOOD.RIGHT, EXACTLY.
WE'RE PUTTING IT IN A MODEL A,
SO IT'S GOING TO BE...
IT'S A VERY SMALL
ENGINE THEN.
WELL, LET'S GET
THIS THING LOADED UP.
ALL RIGHT.I'M EXCITED.
SOUNDS GOOD.I'LL MOVE THE TRUCK IN HERE.
[ ENGINE STARTS ]
I THINK I'LL BE ABLE
TO CLOSE THE TAILGATE.
WELL, HEY, THANKS,
DAVE, APPRECIATE IT.
MARK, NICE TO MEET YOU.GOOD TO MEET YOU.
YEAH.
THANKS.
AH, I REALLY HATE TO SEE
THAT MOTOR GO.
♪♪
♪♪
CHECK THIS THING OUT, MAN.
HARDLY ANY RUST AT ALL.
LOOK AT THAT, JUST A
LITTLE BIT IN THE COWL.
THE MODEL A JUST CAME BACK
FROM MEDIA BLASTING.
I'M HAPPY THAT WE HAVE SUCH
A PRISTINE BODY TO START WITH.
THANK GOD BECAUSE
WE HAVE SO MUCH WORK
WE NEED TO DO ON THIS CAR.
Scott: WE'RE GETTING READY
TO BUILD A MODEL A,
AND WE'RE GOING TO BUILD
A CUSTOM CHASSIS
BECAUSE EVERYTHING ON THIS
IS GOING TO BE SO
EXTREMELY CHOPPED
AND CHANNELED AND CUSTOM
THAT NOTHING OFF THE SHELF
IS GOING TO FIT.
THERE'S TWO THINGS
TO CREATING A CHASSIS.
THE MAIN ONE IS HOW LONG YOUR
WHEEL BASE IS GOING TO BE,
AND THEN THE SECOND ONE
IS YOUR RIDE HEIGHT.
WE'RE GOING TO ACTUALLY CHANNEL
THE BODY OVER THE CHASSIS
TO SET THE BODY REALLY LOW.
THE AXLE IS MADE TO RIDE
UNDERNEATH ON A NORMAL MODEL A.
NOW OUR AXLE IS GOING
TO BE ACTUALLY UP
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BODY.
SO WHAT I GOT TO DO IS GET
THE WHEELS AND TIRES
ON THE READ END AND SET THE BODY
OVER THAT REAR AXLE
AND CRIB IT UP AT 4 INCHES
OF RIDE HEIGHT,
AND THEN WE'LL KNOW EXACTLY
HOW FAR UP THAT REAR END
IS GOING TO BE INSIDE THAT BODY.
SO AT THAT RIDE HEIGHT,
THAT'S 4 1/2 INCHES
THE WAY I GOT IT SET UP.
YOU THINK THAT'S COOL,
OR YOU WANT TO GO LOWER, OR...
I THINK THAT'S COOL.
THE BACK END IS GOING TO
COME DOWN A LITTLE BIT MORE.
YOU KNOW HOW IT IS,
HOW LOW CAN YOU GO?
ALL RIGHT. SO I'LL COME BACK
IN A LITTLE BIT,
AND THEN WE'LL GET
THE OTHER PARTS IN HERE
AND START LOOKING
AT WHEEL BASES.
YEP.
AWESOME.
COOL.
♪♪
FRONT AXLE ON A MODEL A
IS YOUR FRONT AXLE
AND YOUR FRONT SUSPENSION
ALL BUILT INTO ONE,
AND WHAT WE'RE DOING IS KIND OF
LIKE A SPLIT WISHBONE
SUICIDE FRONT END
IS WHAT THEY CALL IT,
WHERE THE SPRING IS
ACTUALLY THROWN BACK
BEHIND THE FRONT AXLE.
THROWING THAT AXLE OUT THERE
A LITTLE BIT
JUST GETS A LOWER RIDE HEIGHT,
A BETTER STANCE AND A LITTLE BIT
MORE OF AN AGGRESSIVE
LOOK ON THE FRONT END.
WE'LL PUT THE WHOLE BRAKE
BACKING PLATE
AND BRAKES
AND ALL ON?
BECAUSE THIS AIN'T NO BOLT
PATTERN NEITHER IS IT?
YEAH, IT IS.
FIVE ON 4 1/2?
OH, NO,
IT'S FIVE ON 5 1/2.
HOW WE GOING TO PUT
FRONT WHEELS ON?
OUR BRAKES AIN'T GOOD.
WE NEED ADAPTERS.
SO WE'RE IN THE MIDDLE
OF MOCKING UP THE FRONT END
ON THIS MODEL A,
AND THE HUBS THAT WE HAVE
ARE FIVE ON 5 1/2 BOLT PATTERN,
BUT THE WHEELS THAT WE HAVE
ARE FIVE ON 4 1/2,
SO THAT WHEEL IS NOT
GOING ON THAT HUB.
IT'S GOING TO BE A LITTLE
BIT OF A HOLDUP NOW
BECAUSE WE GOT TO SEND THE HUBS
OUT AND GET THEM RE-DRILLED.
SO IT LOOKS LIKE THIS COULD
DELAY THE START
OF THE CHASSIS BUILD
FOR ANOTHER COUPLE DAYS.
♪♪
I'M PUTTING THE WHEELS
ON THE FRONT OF THE MODEL A,
AND THE WHEEL HUBS AND THE WHEEL
ARE TWO DIFFERENT BOLT PATTERNS.
THEY WON'T MATE UP.
SO CHARLES IS GOING TO TAKE
THE HUBS OUT TO A MACHINE SHOP
AND HAVE THE BOLT PATTERN
PUT TOGETHER,
SO, DOWN THE ROAD,
EVERYTHING WILL BE JUST PERFECT,
BUT RIGHT NOW
I DON'T HAVE THE TIME
NOR THE PATIENCE
TO WAIT FOR THAT,
SO I'M GOING TO TRY AND STEAL
SOMETHING OFF OF ANOTHER CAR
SO I CAN KEEP
THIS PROJECT GOING.

WON'T HURT THEM.

ACTUALLY,
I DON'T WANT TO SEE IT.
I WANT IT TO BE A
SURPRISE.JUST NOT LOOKING.
I DON'T WANT TO SEE IT UNTIL,
LIKE, IT'S TIME.
UNTIL IT'S TIME, OKAY.
BUT I WANT TO RUN
SOMETHING BY YOU.
SO I'VE BEEN REALLY
GETTING EXCITED ABOUT
THE WHOLE CAR THING.THAT'S GOOD.
AND I WAS WONDERING
IF YOU COULD MAYBE
PAINT MY BASS GUITAR
IF THAT'S POSSIBLE.
HOLY SMOKES,
CHECK THIS OUT.
THIS IS AWESOME.
YEAH, MAN.
THAT'S ACTUALLY

I JUST THOUGHT MAYBE YOU COULD
DO SOMETHING COOL.
I'M SURE WE CAN.IF YOU'RE WILLING.
YES.I LOVE THESE SPARKLES, MAN.
YEAH.
MAYBE YOU CAN ADD
A LITTLE FLASH ON THERE.
THE ANSWER IS YES.
I WOULD LOVE TO PAINT A GUITAR.
YEAH, IT'S
SOMETHING DIFFERENT.
I DON'T DO THAT
ALL THE TIME.
I MEAN, WHAT THE HELL?
YOUR CAR IS NOT GOING
TO HAVE PAINT.
WE GOT TO PAINT SOMETHING.

THAT'S WHAT I'M THINKING.
YEAH, LET'S BLIND PEOPLE.
YES.
YOU'LL MAKE THEM BLIND AND MAKE
THEM DEAF AT THE SAME TIME.

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?
WE GOT BILLET HUBS NOW?
BADASS STREET ROD.

SO WE WENT FROM
DRILLING TO STEALING.
[ LAUGHS ]WHERE'D YOU STEAL THIS?
WHAT I'M TRYING TO DO
IS STAY ON SCHEDULE,
SO I COULD USE THESE...
THAT'S GOOD, BUT WHICH CAR
DID YOU STEAL THEM OFF OF?
HOPEFULLY IT'S NOT ONE
THAT NEEDS TO LEAVE SOON.
A GOOD THIEF DON'T TALK
ABOUT WHAT HE STOLE.
BRAND-NEW ROTORS.
YEAH, WE CAN RETURN THEM.
I DON'T NEED THEM.
BUT, LOOK, THESE GOT THE CHEVY
AND FORD PATTERN, SO, BAM,
I SWITCHED THEM OVER TO FORD, SO
NOW THE GUY I TOOK THEM FROM...
SO YOU JUST DECIDED NOT TO
DRILL THEM AND JUST --
THE GUY I TOOK THEM FROM,
HE AIN'T GOING TO KNOW
I TOOK THEM BECAUSE IT'S
THE WRONG BOLT PATTERN.
BUT THAT'LL KEEP THE A BUILD
GOING ON SCHEDULE
BECAUSE WE CAN USE THESE
FOR MOCK-UP,
BUT THAT RIGHT THERE IS GOING TO
SAVE THE DAY FOR US RIGHT NOW.
WELL,
LET'S MOCK IT UP THEN.
LET'S PUT THE WHEELS ON SO
NOBODY SEES OUR PARTS.

YEAH.
STEALS IT BACK?

Charles: COOL. LET'S ROLL THIS
FRONT END UNDERNEATH THERE.
SO WE'RE AT THE POINT WHERE
WE'RE MEASURING OUT
THE WHEEL BASE FOR
THE MODEL A CHASSIS.
BEFORE WE START
BUILDING THE CHASSIS,
WE NEED TO GET
THE WHEEL BASE RIGHT.
WHAT IS IT?
Scott: 110 AND A HALF.
STOCK IS 103.
OH, GOD.
WE DON'T WANT TO MAKE THE CAR
LOOK TOO LONG AND RIDICULOUS,
SO WE'RE GOING TO GET THE MOTOR
PUSHED BACK AS FAR AS WE CAN,
PULL THE WHEELS BACK
AS CLOSE AS WE CAN.
WE REALLY WANT TO GET
AS CLOSE TO THE STOCK
WHEEL BASE MEASUREMENT
AS POSSIBLE,
BUT IT'S REALLY GOING TO TAKE
SOME CREATIVITY TO GET THERE.
YEAH, WE DEFINITELY
GOT TO SHORTEN IT UP.
YEAH.
PUSH THE MOTOR BACK INTO
THE COWL, KNOCKING THIS BACK.
THAT'S GOING TO
GAIN US ANOTHER 4.
THAT'S A LITTLE MORE
THAN I THOUGHT. THAT'S 4.
SO IF WE MOVE THE FIREWALL
BACK 4 INCHES,
IT'S GOING TO CRAMP UP THE
DRIVER COMPARTMENT A LITTLE BIT,
BUT IF WE PUSH THE SEAT BACK
AS FAR AS POSSIBLE
UP AGAINST
THE REAR SUSPENSION,
IT'S GOING TO BUY US
SOME SPACE THAT WAY.
THIS CAR IS NOT GOING TO HAVE
A REAR SEAT, OBVIOUSLY, ANYMORE.
AND THEN WE'LL DO
SWING PEDALS, YOU KNOW,
MAYBE DOWN FROM THE DASH,
UNDERNEATH THE DASH.
THAT'LL GIVE US
A LITTLE MORE ROOM.
YOU KNOW, IT'S LIKE ANY OTHER
TIME WE BUILD A CUSTOM CAR.
TO GET THAT LOOK, THERE'S GOT
TO BE A LOT OF CUTTING INVOLVED.
I'M READY.
ALL RIGHT. COOL.

I'M JUST TRYING TO GET IT BACK
THE MAX WE CAN GET IT BACK

ON A LOT OF HOT RODS
WE BUILD AROUND HERE,
WE WILL OUTSOURCE
A HOT ROD CHASSIS,

THAT COMES WITH THAT.
COULD BE 3, 4 MONTHS,

ON THIS CAR HERE, WE DON'T
HAVE THAT TIME TO WAIT.

- OH, HEY.
THAT WAS GRACEFUL.
ALL RIGHT. SO WE GOT
THE MODEL A BLOWN APART.
WE GOT THE FRONT AND THE
REAR AXLE UP ON THE JIG TABLE.
SO NOW WHAT I GOT TO DO IS BUILD
A BUNCH OF LITTLE FIXTURES

TO THE BACK CRADLE.
WE CALL THAT
THE SUSPENSION CRADLE.
IT'S GOT THE ZEED UP,
HAS TO GET UP REALLY HIGH
TO GET OVER THE REAR END
BECAUSE ALL THE SUSPENSION
IS RAISED UP INSIDE THE CAR.
THEN IT'LL HAVE
THE COILOVER MOUNTS,
ALL THE FOUR-LINK MOUNTS.
NOW, ONCE THIS IS ALL FLOOR-
PANNED IN INSIDE IN THE CAR,
THIS WILL ACTUALLY BE

SO HE'S THE PERFECT PERSON
TO COLLABORATE WITH.
ALL RIGHT, MARTIN.
THANKS FOR COMING IN.
WHAT ARE YOU WORKING ON?
SO JUST BUILDING, LIKE, A WILD
KIND OF OVER-THE-TOP HOT ROD.
SO WE'RE KIND OF TRYING TO THINK
OF, YOU KNOW, WHAT ELSE
WE CAN DO TO MAKE IT COOL,
AND WE REALLY HAVE KIND OF
FREE REIGN ON THIS PROJECT.
WE CAN KIND OF DO
WHATEVER WE WANT,
SO CHARLES AND I WERE
KICKING AROUND A LOT OF IDEAS,
AND IT CAME DOWN TO THE ROOF.
SO, ORIGINALLY, THERE WERE
WOOD RACES THAT RAN ACROSS,
AND WE WERE THINKING, LIKE,
WHAT IF WE ACTUALLY USED SOME,
LIKE, REALLY HIGH-END
HARDWOOD AND --
CHANGE IT UP A BIT
SO WE STILL GOT WOOD,
YOU CAN STILL SEE
DOWN IN THE CAR,
BUT SOMETHING MORE EXOTIC.
THE TOP IS ACTUALLY GOING TO BE
PRETTY CHOPPED, YOU KNOW,
SO IT'S GOING TO BE
DOWN ABOUT 5 INCHES.
SO WHEN YOU WALK UP TO IT, I
KIND OF WANT PEOPLE TO BE LIKE,
"WHOA. WHAT'S THAT?"
WELL, IT'S DEFINITELY
NOT SIMPLE.
WE'RE GOING TO MAKE IT LOOK
SIMPLE, BUT OTHER THAN THAT,
I THINK IT'S
A GREAT PROJECT.
I THINK WE CAN DO
SOMETHING INCREDIBLE.
I'M THINKING SOMETHING
WITH AN EXOTIC HARDWOOD,
SOMETHING THAT REALLY IS
GOING TO POP FOR YOU GUYS.
OKAY.
WITH THE CURVATURES
OF THE ROOF HERE,
I THINK WE CAN DO
A LOT OF GREAT THINGS.
IN THE CASE OF THE STRIPS, I
THINK WE RUN THEM FRONT TO BACK.
THAT'S A GOOD IDEA.
LOOKS LIKE A HELL
OF A PROJECT.
WE'LL HAVE TO WRAP THIS
WITH METAL I THINK
JUST SO YOU HAVE SOMETHING GOOD
TO END THE WOOD INTO.
NO, I HADN'T THOUGHT ABOUT THAT.

THERE COULD BE SOME
SHEET-METAL WORK
THAT THEN TERMINATES
THIS IN NICE AND SQUARE.
WE CAN THEN BRING OUR WOOD
RIGHT UP TO THAT

BECAUSE EVERYTHING ON THIS

IS YOUR RIDE HEIGHT.
WE'RE GOING TO ACTUALLY CHANNEL
THE BODY OVER THE CHASSIS
TO SET THE BODY REALLY LOW.
THE AXLE IS MADE TO RIDE
UNDERNEATH ON A NORMAL MODEL A.
NOW OUR AXLE IS GOING
TO BE ACTUALLY UP
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BODY.

THE WHEELS AND TIRES
ON THE READ END AND SET THE BODY
OVER THAT REAR AXLE
AND CRIB IT UP AT 4 INCHES
OF RIDE HEIGHT,

HOW FAR UP THAT REAR END

WE'RE GOING TO GO AHEAD
AND COVER THEM IN A THICKER,
MORE LIKE A SADDLE

THIS SHOULD BE MORE COMFORTABLE
TO RIDE AT LEAST.
LOOK AT ALL THESE RIVETS.
WE GOT TO MAKE SOME TEMPLATES.
WE'RE GOING TO GO AHEAD

WE GOT TO FIGURE THAT OUT.

EVERYONE IS SO EXCITED
ABOUT THE MODEL A
THAT THE WHOLE SHOP
HAS GATHERED AROUND
TO HEAR IT FIRE
FOR THE FIRST TIME.
THE ONLY PROBLEM IS
IT'S NOT STARTING,
AND OUR SUPER MECHANIC,
PAUL, ISN'T SURE WHY.
LET'S CHECK OUR FIRING ORDER.
YEAH.
THAT'S AS RIGHT AS IT GETS.
TRY AGAIN, CHARLES.
Scott: HOLY ****.
PUT THE HEADS ON BACKWARDS.

THIS ENGINE IS JUST
PISSING ME OFF.

WELL, THE ENGINE
FINALLY STARTED,
BUT NOT WITHOUT
A FEW ISSUES.
APPARENTLY IT LIKES
A LOT MORE TIMING
THAN WHAT I THOUGHT IT WOULD.
WE JUST HAD TO FIND THAT SWEET
SPOT. THAT'S ALL.
MY GUYS KICKED ASS
ON THIS BUILD.
ALL THE GUYS RALLIED TOGETHER.

WHOA.
Noah: IT'S FREAKING CRAZY.WOW.
THE MORE I LOOK AT IT,
THE MORE I'M JUST LIKE,
"WHAT THE..."
[ LAUGHS ]
IT'S SO LOW.
THAT IS SICK.
I THINK THE FIRST THING
THAT STRIKES YOU
WHEN YOU SEE IT IS
THE STANCE OF THE WHOLE THING.
IT LOOKS LIKE A LEOPARD
JUST WAITING TO POUNCE, MAN.
- WHAT DO YOU THINK?
- DUDE.
Noah: DOES IT LOOK
ANY DIFFERENT AT ALL?
Dale: OH, MAN.
TOTALLY ONE OF A KIND,
YOU KNOW, THROUGHOUT,
SO WE STARTED WITH
THIS EARLY '50s HEMI.
IT'S A 331.
A WEIAND 6-71 BLOWER ON TOP,
DUAL HOLLEYS,
JUST CLASSIC
KIND OF POWER SETUP.
HOW MUCH POWER
IS THIS MAKING?
THIS IS PUTTING ABOUT
500 HORSEPOWER OUT.
500 HORSE?
YEP.
WE COULD HAVE, LIKE, DONE
SOMETHING WITH THE EXHAUST
AND MADE IT QUIET AND SNUCK IT
UNDERNEATH THE CAR, BUT...
WHAT A WASTE.
...WHAT A WASTE.
SO WE'RE DUMPING IT
RIGHT ACROSS THE DOOR.
THE FRONT SUSPENSION,
WE'VE GOT A SPLIT WISHBONE,
A 5-INCH DROP,
BIG LINK-IN DRUM.
I LOVE THIS THING HERE.
THIS LOOKS LIKE SOME KIND
OF PREDATORY FISH
OR BIRD OR SOME SORT.IT IS, OR A BIRD.
YES, IT'S GOING TO EAT UP,
IN YOUR AREA, BUGS.
BUGS, YEAH.
IT JUST LOOKS MEAN.
LIKE SOMETHING THAT CAME
FROM THE FUTURE, YOU KNOW,
BACK TO THE PAST
TO TRY AND KILL YOU.
I WANT TO SHOW YOU THE INTERIOR
BECAUSE THE AMOUNT OF WORK
THAT WENT INTO IT
IS PRETTY CRAZY.
OH, YEAH.
SO, AFTER WE GOT THE BODY
STRIPPED DOWN TO BARE METAL,
WE CUT OUT THE FLOORS
BECAUSE WE CHANNELED THE CHASSIS
THROUGH THE FLOORS
TO GIVE IT THIS STANCE.
ALL ONE-OFF
HANDMADE STUFF.
THE DASH IS SUPER CLEAN.
EVERYTHING IN THE INTERIOR IS
HELD TOGETHER WITH BRASS RIVETS.
I LOVE THE BRASS.
IT LOOKS SO INDUSTRIAL,
YOU KNOW?
IT DOES.
IT TIES THE WHOLE THING
TOGETHER, YOU KNOW?
LOOKS GREAT.IT'S REALLY COOL.
SO THE SEATS, WE WERE WORRIED
ABOUT THE SEATS ARE...
COMFORT IS SECONDARY
IN THIS KIND OF VEHICLE.
IT'S A NEAT PIECE AND KIND
OF A DRIVABLE SCULPTURE.
SO WE WANTED TO DO
SOMETHING WITH THE ROOF.
IT'S LAYERS OF ZEBRAWOOD
AND CARBON FIBER,
SO IT'S VERY, VERY STIFF.
IT'S A STRUCTURAL PIECE
ON THE CAR.
AND THEN WE TIED IN THE LEATHER
IN THE INTERIOR
TO KIND OF HIT
THESE CHOCOLATE NOTES HERE.
SO IT REALLY
ALL KIND OF FLOWS,
AND I'M KIND OF
IN LOVE WITH IT...
ABSOLUTELY.
...AS I THINK ALL THE GUYS
ARE AS WELL.
I'VE NEVER SEEN
A CAR LIKE THIS.
THAT INTERIOR, ON ITS OWN,
IS JUST UNBELIEVABLE.
YOU CAN LOOK AT
THAT CAR FOR DAYS,
AND YOU'LL NOTICE SOMETHING
NEW EVERY TIME YOU DO.
IT'S A PIECE OF ART.
LAST BUT NOT LEAST,
WE'VE GOT YOUR BASS.
OH, MAN.
CHARLES SPENT A LOT OF TIME
WORKING ON THIS THING.
WE TRIED TO INCORPORATE KIND OF
WHAT WE THOUGHT YOU'D WANT.
WE'VE GOT A LOT
OF METAL FLAKE
AND THEN CANDY OVER
THE TOP, FRICKING --
OH, MAN.
THAT'S SO GREAT.
AND OBVIOUSLY A TON OF CLEAR
OVER THE WHOLE THING.
IT'S REAL RICH AND FRICKING
COOL-LOOKING.
SO IS THAT WHY THERE'S
NO PAINT ON THE HOT ROD?
YEAH, WE DIDN'T WANT
TO UPSTAGE THE GUITAR.
BECAUSE YOU TOOK
ALL ITS TIME ON THIS.
THAT'S RIGHT.
WELL, WITHOUT FURTHER ADO,
WE LIKE BUILDING STUFF,
BUT I THINK THE REAL TEST
IS ACTUALLY, LIKE, DRIVING IT,
SO WE SHOULD GO
TERRORIZE THE TOWN.
