09x19 - Heavy Metal

Post by bunniefuu »

What was your biggest struggle
with this truck?

-Dealing with you
guys everyday.
-Wow.

[laughs]

These are farm trucks,
but now we're making into
a world class show truck.

No whammies, no whammies.

These are literally
works of art.

[brakes screech]

Brakes work.

Okay, that's gangster.

I've never seen anything
like it.

[man 1] We're kind of sweating
this day.

It's our dog right there.

[man 2] I'd have to say
that's pretty spectacular.

[man 3] I have one question
in the back of my mind.

I wonder where Dave is.

I wonder where Dave is.

I hope he's designing
something real epic.

[vocalizing] Dun, dun, dun,

boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.

[Dave] When I look at
a blank canvas,
I see endless possibilities.

As the ideas come to mind,
the lines start to fall
into place.

And before you know it,
we have a bitchin' ride.

A bitchin ride has
intense color.

This is gorgeous!

Performance.

Performance.

[man 1] It's fantastic.

[Dave] Stance. Wheels. Sound.

If there's one thing that
makes our cars stand out,

ours are Bitchin' Rides.

-Well, it never gets old.
-[man laughs]

It's supposed to be, what,
a 105 today? [laughs]

[man 3] We had
an air conditioner go out.

It's very important because
it's the air conditioner
for my office.

And it's a hot summer
this year, so we gotta get
this unit up on the roof.

The one that we have
up there now is from 1978.

So, it's time to replace it.

Uh...

I mean, not exactly.

I've driven one before but
I haven't had to put, like,
something up on the roof.

I'm gonna try to do
my very best. [laughs]

[forklift beeping]

Let's put this thing up there.

It's a new AC unit going on
the roof.

How hard can it really be?

I got this great piece of
equipment to get it up there.

Come to you?
Come forward or tilt it?

Bring this boom down?

Bring this boom down?

That's gonna fall off.

Let me come--
Can I come forward?

Put this back down.

That's stupid.

Come to find out,
putting AC units,

a little bit more sketchy
than I had imagined.

Gah! Damn!

Phew! That's nerve-wracking.

That's nerve-wracking.
I didn't like that.

But it's done now, so we need
to get back to our regular
scheduled program.

Hoo!

[Dave] This die is fresh
out of the press,

[Dave] This die is fresh
out of the press,

and what's inside is
a huge deal.

When this old '63 Chevvy
C10 truck showed up
to the shop,

it was a rust covered mess.

It's beautiful, classic.
But needs a little tweaks
here and there.

It's not work truck
anymore. So...

[Dave] From the body
to the chassis to the bed,

we've given this whole truck
brand new life.

Okay, that's gangster.

[Dave] And really,
at this point, we just need to
make sure that the hood

[Dave] And really,
at this point, we just need to
make sure that the hood

looks as good as
the rest of the truck.

That means, there's a whole
lot riding on this die.

[man 1] There's
a little something.

The trick here is to take
a design element,

which was the original
bead roll on the '63 hood,

and follow it around
all of the velocity stacks

coming through the hood.

Here's the original piece.
Let's see.

It's really always wise
to start with a test piece.

[Eric] I think it looks
pretty good.

It's gonna save a lot of time
and it'll be super crisp when
it's done.

We're gonna go to town
on this thing.

[ticking]

We gotta flip this thing now.

[Dave] Realistically,
the biggest trick to this
hood die

is to ensure that all of
the pressure is
evenly distributed,

front to back
and side to side.

So, we hit five across
the whole board, and then
see what it does?

[man 2] Yeah.

[creaking]

-That's getting it, huh?
-[Eric] Oh, yeah.

[man 2] Squish it.

-couple of poppies on?
-Has it kind of tweaking?

We'll see.

[creaking]

Looks like we're almost there.

See where we're at.

It's our dog, right there.

Nice.

No whammies, no whammies!

Hey!

[man 2] I'd have to say,
that's pretty spectacular.

-[Eric] Yeah.
-[man 2] That's a darned cool
piece to start with.

Kind of worked out great.

-Like we meant it to be.
-[Dave] Yeah. Yeah.

[laughs]

Just like we planned.

It's custom. Rad.

Just gotta fine tune
a couple things.

And then, it's gonna be
ready to weld in the truck.

Before Eric gets too far into
any other major modifications,

I'm gonna go check out
the progress.

Dude, that's rad.
Dude, that's rad-sauce.

Dude, that's rad though.

-Yeah.
-Man, that's rad.

You guys a bunch of
smart cookies.

Well, Dave's happy,
so I'm happy.

sh**t some sparks huh!

[groans softly]

Let's see how this looks.

I think that looks cool.

-Factory fit, dude.
-Oh, yeah.

While the C10 project's
picking up steam,

on the other side of the shop,
we got something that's
off the track.

Man, this thing looks k*ller
out in the sunlight.

Several years ago, we got
the opportunity to build
a really bitchin' Camaro.

Whoo-wee.

With a new owner, it has
come back for a quick repair

so we can make sure
it's perfect.

Boo-ya!

Window tracks, it's came off.

So, it's trying to roll
the back end up

quicker than the front end.

And then it binds.

There's been pressure
on the door,

so it doesn't shut evenly.

So, that could be
what's causing it.

It's dropping a quarter
of an inch down once
you open the door.

I have got the perfect
tool for this job.

Pringle!

-[Jason] Yeah?
-Will you come look at this?

What controls this? I mean...

[Jason] Here.
This controls the tilt.

'Cause that's what's,
watch when I close the door.

Door glass and window guts?

Is that Will's old rock band?

But for this Camaro,
it is the key to get
the windows back on track.

But for this Camaro,
it is the key to get
the windows back on track.

No pun intended--
Uh, I'm intending the pun.

The window's not right.

This is totally wrong.

Window up.

Okay, hop out.

You see the difference?

It's this one.

They just wedged it
and pushed.
It's not even adjusted.

-Ah, so that's just grabbing
it when it's pulling?
-Yes.

-Ah, so that's just grabbing
it when it's pulling?
-Yes.

-Yes.
-Got it.

The rear window on this Camaro
is not sitting right

and it's causing both windows
to have big time issues.

[Jason] See here? Yeah,
that's not even in its
right place yet.

It's just wedged in place.

You have to take all this off.

'Cause if you look at
this one, see how this one is
forward and that one's back?

[Kenny] Well, I will start
pulling out the back.

You gotta pull out
the roll bar to access the...

You gotta pull out
the roll bar to access the...

back panels.

Here's part of it. [chuckles]

Just lift up on it there
and pull it out.

There we go.

All righty. Thank you, sir.

While the Camaro's getting
tore apart,

the C10 hood is coming
along great.

Been kind of sweating
this day.

But now that it's here,
it's not so bad.

Let's weld it in, huh?

It's welding up really nice.

Dealing with the oil can
but kind of expecting that.

[Dave] The hood on the C10
is by far one of the most

custom touches to
this particular project.

And it is a tough one.

-Well, hey.
-What's up, fellas?

Me too.

You guys have done
so many things on this thing.

But if you don't know a lot
about these trucks,

you'd just walk right by.

-That's right.
-And that's the best thing,

and at least I think,
that means you've
done your job right.

and at least I think,
that means you've
done your job right.

-So...
-Totally.

This all looks k*ller.
Look at this,

the turn signals, pushed in
looks completely stocked up.

-Nice.
-Yeah, that's awesome.

What was your biggest
struggle with this truck?

-Dealing with you
guys everyday.
-Wow.

[all laughing]

I know Eric was joking,
but there was no hesitation
in there.

There's gotta be a little bit
of truth.

No, I think the biggest part
was the hood.

-Was the hood?
-Yeah.

Let's see underneath.

You got everything
tucked in nice.

Not a lot of hardware showing.

If any. I really think you did
a great job.

I love this. How that detail
just flows out here.

We didn't continue
the beading through.

Every inch,
every square millimeter
on this truck,

is coming along beautifully.

It's exactly where it's
supposed to be.

Yeah, the bed really
turned out nice too.

It's just ridiculous.
But it's cool.

Yeah, that's the fun part
of it.

[Dave] Exactly. Well,
the roll panel looks good,
the bumper looks good.

I mean, you guys did
a really awesome job.

I mean, you guys did
a really awesome job.

Gas cap looks awesome.

I think it's just really,
really well put together.

There's a super ton
of custom stuff going on.

And then, with all the small
details that we're gonna do.

[Dave] And then, firing it up
is gonna be rowdy.

[Kevin] This thing is just
gonna be awesome.

-We might not give it
back but...
-[Dave] Right?

I've always been a Chevy guy.
And trucks like this are
one of the reasons why.

This thing is k*ller.

Oh, hey, one thing.
Can we shave the Chevrolet
out of the...

-[Tim] Hmm, time to go.
-Take it easy.

-I was just saying that
it'd look cleaner with it.
-[chuckles]

-I'm kidding.
-[Kenny laughs]

Put a wedge in here
so it won't roll up and down.

But I don't know why yet.

The deeper Kenny works
on this window,

The deeper Kenny works
on this window,

the more mysterious it gets.

[Kenny] It's a broken clip.

Somebody's broken the clips
in this window.

So, I got to pull those out
and get new rollers.

As it is not happy
where it's at.

Replace some of this with
factory equipment. [chuckles]

That's a 2x4.

Pretty sure that's not...

the original equipment.

This component goes to it.

These are mysteries.

That's an awful lot of junk
to put in a door cavity.

But the mystery is starting
to reveal itself.

[Kenny] They broke the window.
And so, they wedged it
in there

so that the window could
stay up

without it coming back down.

Then they unplugged it.

So, now I get to
figure out why

they had to do that.

Looks like it's something that
happened when the roll cage
went in.

'Cause they'd had to
have removed all these
panels to install that.

It's probably the fallout
of that.

We didn't put the roll cage
in this car

but we'll make sure
it goes back in.

There's the glass.

These are supposed to
all be together.

They're a mess.

They were popped off
their rollers.

These are super dry.

Tracks were all loose.

Just had to put them
all back together.

And then with all the tracks
on there,

and them lubed up,
it should work fine.

Seemed to have done it.

Gonna have to clean these
rails up and get some
grease in them.

And then, it should be good.

It's just hanging up because
it's dry inside these rails.

It's just hanging up because
it's dry inside these rails.

So, it'll get travelling
and catch on them.

Just gotta try to sit
and work it in.

And roll up your window,
roll it down until it

starts to go smooth.

Perfect!

Yeah, we're good.

[Chris] You gotta make sure
everything's clean.

Even this like,
top piece of paper,

I think's got a little
contamination on it.

So, I'm not gonna risk it.

The Camaro's wrapped up,
finished up and ready to go,

and now, it's back to the C10.

[Chris] This is the hardener.

You want enough to
make it hard,

but not enough
to make it brittle.

but not enough
to make it brittle.

The nice thing is, it gives
you more time to work with it.

'Cause this stuff does
kick fast.

Bodywork isn't really a job,
a chore or a science
even at that point, to me,

I think it's an art.
A fine art.

[Chris] And like, this is very
important to mix it evenly,

and then see the different
color difference in there.

It's gotta be completely even.

Every time you flip it over,

you're introducing air in it.
So, you're trying not to
do that.

you're introducing air in it.
So, you're trying not to
do that.

You're trying to eliminate
as many of the pinholes
as possible.

I've been doing this for


And you're always learning.

If you're done learning,
you might as well hang it up.

Prep is the most
important part of it.

If it's not prepped properly,
it was all a waste of time.

The bodywork on this
particular year of C10
is very difficult

because there's actually some
hidden reveal lines that
go front to back.

because there's actually some
hidden reveal lines that
go front to back.

This really is a difficult
body job.

This plane should be about
the same height as this plane.

And you really wanna
push this in.

That will also prevent
air pockets, pinholes.

So much detail.

So far, this is looking
really, really good.

Really happy with it.

Really happy with it.

It's all gotta work together.

It's all gotta work
in one cohesive unit.

These are literally
works of art.

This is what makes a show car.

This is what makes a show car.

That's what separates Kindig
from a lot of different cars.

You have to have a vision
to do this type of work.

And Dave's vision, he knocks
the entire lot of the park
every time.

[man 4] With all the custom
stuff we've done to this,

I mean, we've got a lot to go
through and get this thing
perfectly straight.

It's pretty amazing.
The final look is gonna
be freaking awesome.

And I can't wait to see that
sticking out of the hood.

This job ain't for everybody.

It's very, very tedious.

It's very time consuming.

It's very time consuming.

But when the job's done
and you see the truck,
it's amazing.

It's beautiful. And this is
gonna be the most beautiful
truck I've ever worked on. So,

when I think I'm getting upset
or like, "Ugh, this is just
taking too long,"

it's worth it in the end,
by far.

Chris, you've been working
on the same door
the whole time.

-I know. [laughing]
-I'm just kidding, dude.

It's looking good.
You know, I'm super pumped
for this truck.

-You know I'm a truck guy.
-I know.

-You know I'm a truck guy.
-I know.

A ton of metal work has been
done on this truck.

And it's very important that
all the bodywork
ties in seamlessly.

It's just a trick 'cause
there's the bodyline here,

that is really hard
to get sanded out,

-and then to get it to meet
all these angles perfectly.
-Right.

It is a straight truck,

but it's still get a gradual
bubble to it.

I'm just trying to
get it perfect.

It's one of those things that
if you do a modification
like this,

and you don't
finish it perfectly,

then you're gonna be able
to tell, "Oh, this is where
they did the modification."

But if you do it right, people
will look at it, and if they
don't know a C10,

But if you do it right, people
will look at it, and if they
don't know a C10,

they'll be like, "It could've
came from the factory
like this."

And that's what we always
strive for here.

Getting all the bodylines
straight on a truck

that's over 50 years old,
it's a tall order.

Dude, I'm pumped.

-By the end of the day...
-In time. In time.

-What do you mean?
-[laughs]

Perfection takes time.

I get it, dude. And I've still
been working on this
time machine, dude.

-When you get it,
you let me know
-I know, bro.

-Get in line. Get in line.
-[Chris laughing]

When it comes to this truck,
the cab is not the only
difficult part.

[man 5] People are gonna
come in and look at the bed,

and if those lines aren't
straight, they look terrible.

And if you don't do
this process,

you'll spend just as much time
making it ugly as it takes
to make it right.

This is just the first stage
of the refinement process.

First primer session.

First primer session.

We're gonna do another
primer session.

And I have to go through
and do the exact
same thing again.

I'm loving it.

Not only do I have to sand
this multiple times during
different primer stages,

you have to use two or three
different grits of sandpaper.

Obviously, starting with
a rougher grit,

getting more refined as we go.

And much like the paint job,

the farther along in
the process you go, the more
refined you've got it,

the farther along in
the process you go, the more
refined you've got it,

if one tiny thing goes wrong,
it could create a huge
cascading effect

where the solution is
very time consuming.

The light really helps.

Sometimes, it's hard to detect
if your line is straight
or not,

depending on where
the lights are in the room.

You come in here with a light
and you can follow along

all your edges to see if
there's any inconsistencies.

It makes the job easier.

I don't know if "easier"
is the right word.

It helps you be more precise.

Voila!

Now, I'm gonna have to do that


[Dave] We have our sad days,
and this happens to be
one of them,

here at Kindig It Design.

There comes a time,
I promised I wasn't gonna cry,

that all things that are great
in your life must go away.
[sighs]

And the Pantera
is one of 'em.

And the Pantera
is one of 'em.

Did it look like I was crying
to you?

-I could really get some tears
out if you want.
-[crew laughs]

Do you think I'm up for
an Emmy for that [bleep]?

Before we send this
beautiful Pantera back to our
very good friend, Ernie,

we need to shake it down
on the road, on the Dyno,

and make sure it's perfect,

what we call "valet-proof".

That means that anybody can
get in the car and not
break it.

For me, honestly, secretly,

it's just a really good excuse
for me to drive the car around
and enjoy it.

[vocalizing melody] Da-na!
Dun-dun-dun!

[vocalizing melody] Da-na!
Dun-dun-dun!

Da-na!

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.

-[brakes screech]
-Brakes work.

Before we get this thing
out on the roads,

we actually need to put it
on our rollers and make sure
it's tuned in perfectly.

I think there's always just
a little bit more in a tune

that you can get out
of the car

to make it that much more fun
to drive.

-[Kenny] It will sound
really smart. You ready?
-[Dave] Okay.

Just so happens, we have
a Mustang Dyno here,

which is great for us.
So we're gonna put it
on the rack,

get it strapped down
and start putting
the pedal to the metal.

It takes a few tries to
make sure everything's
strapped down,

the car's gonna stary straight
on the Dyno,

the car's gonna stary straight
on the Dyno,

so that we can really get down
to getting the numbers up
where we want.

The drive train in this
particular Pantera
is not stock.

We have a 05-06-6P transaxle
out of a Ford GT

and a Coyote 50 topped
with a Borla 8 stack.

Which means, what?
Yeah. You don't have
a standard tune.

We're gonna have to make it up
as we go along.

But when I send this car back
up to Ernie, I wanna make sure

that he can
get out on the road, enjoy
the performance of the car,

and more importantly,
enjoy driving it all the time.

We got the right equipment,
the right tools and the right
guys for this job.

-You guys getting ready
to do a pull?
-[Kenny] Yeah.

-You guys getting ready
to do a pull?
-[Kenny] Yeah.

Do the final pull.

Oh, you've already done
a couple, got it all
dialed in?

[overlapping dialogues]
Yeah we're getting it close.

One more to make sure
everything's good and set
and should be good.

-Sweet. Sound good?
-Yeah, it sounds awesome.

-I'll be the judge of that.
-All right.

At the end of the day,
the Dyno really helps us

figure out exactly
what the car's doing,

what it's capable of doing,

and more importantly,
making sure that it's reliable

so, Ernie can just get in it,
mash the gears,

and go do whatever he wants,
anywhere he wants, anytime.

We aren't trying to
ride wheelies.

We're not really trying to
break anybody's neck off.

We're not really trying to
break anybody's neck off.

Wanted to just make sure that
it doesn't smell like fuel
coming out the back,

make sure we got
all the gears,

make sure it sounds good,
it's running good.

Borlas are all dialed in
to within one percent.

-So, we should get even pull
through everything.
-Okay, yeah.

How much do you typically lose
on these from crank
horse power

to the rear wheels?

Usually it's about 20 percent.

-[Dave] Is it really
-Yeah. Yeah.

-So...
-Hm. Hm. Okay, well.

See if we can get it down
to 15.

-Yeah? Okay.
-All right.

Yeah, we got it all dialed in.

-Are you guys ready
to go right now?
-We're ready.

[Dave] Well, the guys say
she's ready to rock and roll.

[Dave] Well, the guys say
she's ready to rock and roll.

This should be the last time
we have to run the engine
on the Dyno.

So, we're sh**ting for a tune
that'll get us up to 6000 RPM

and then, we'll be safe.

Ready to do a big pulls.

-Cool. Well, jump in
there, cowboy.
-Cool?

-Let's do it.
-So, I'll see what
you guys got.

[laughs excitedly]

Kenny's our pilot,
Tim is watching the numbers
on the computer.

And I will be the judge
to see how it performs.

All right, key on, Kenny.

-Key on.
-[Dave] All righty.

[engine starts, revs]

All right. Let 'er rip.

[engine revving up]

-[whistles]
-[revving stops]

Gotta strap that deck lid up.

Take your foot
off the boards again.

Hang on one second.

One thing we did notice,
before we do a pull,

we really need to secure
this deck lid

so it's not vibrating
and popping around.

Is it one of these?

Yeah, I think both of them.

Cool.

Better safe than sorry,

and hopefully,
there's no more interruptions

'cause it's go-time.

[engine revving up]

That's what I'm talking
about. Whoo!

Sounds good.

-342?
-342 at the wheels.

It's not bad.

Hell yeah.

-How's the temp?
Everything good?
-Yep.

Perfect.

-Oil pressure, sound looks
all good?
-Everything.

See, see, we'll running right.

Every test run gives us
another baseline in which
we can work on

to get more performance
and better fuel economy.

-[buzzer sounds]
-Better fuel economy? We don't
give a [bleep] about that.

-[buzzer sounds]
-Better fuel economy? We don't
give a [bleep] about that.

What kind of gas milage
we getting?

-[laughs]
-About five smiles
per mile.

-[laughs]
-That wasn't a request.

[all laughing]

I can't believe I actually
said that.

You need to check
my temperature, bro.

[crew laughs]

[laughs] Fuel economy,
my [bleep].

All right.

[Tim] Yeah, she's happy.

I really feel great about
this last run.

It sounds awesome,
it's smooth.

It sounds powerful.

And everything looks like
it's checking in perfect.

Cool. Man, that was rad!

So, what do we...
How do we do, Tim...

I mean, it sounds good to me.
It sounds k*ller.

Oh, it did great.

This freaking air-fuel ratios
were consistent, all that.

-So...
-[Dave] Nice.

[laughing] It sounds
so badass.

I have to tell you,
I can't wait to get this thing
out on the road.

It feels better than
it sounds.

It feels better than
it sounds.

-[Dave] Really? Cool.
-[Tim] Yeah.

Let's wrap up on the last
couple of things we need
to do.

-Yeah.
-Let's get this thing ready
to get on the road.

I can't wait to start driving
it and shaking it down.

-So, right on.
-I'm ready to see this thing
on the road.

-Sounds good, man.
Great job, you guys.
-Yeah, cool.

Really, great job.

[Dave] All of the hard work
paid off.

The Dyno worked out great.

And now it's time to
get this car cleaned up
and ready to go.

[Dave] Dun-dun-dun!

[laughs]

We have, it's like,
about a 105 miles on it.



For me, honesty,
it's a little bittersweet.

Are you cuing the sad music?

For me, it's
a little bittersweet.

This will be the last time
that I get to drive this car
and enjoy it.

And it's meant a lot to me.

What I'm today is basically
going through

What I'm today is basically
going through

and just making sure
everything in this car
feels like

anybody can get in the car,

drive it, move it, enjoy it.

[brakes screech]

Brakes work.

Kindig-it designs,
we build really
beautiful show cars.

But at the end of the day,
when you're done
showing 'em,

we really want people
to be able to drive 'em.

Wanna make sure the brakes
are going full...

Wanna make sure the brakes
are going full...

full pressure. There is some
adjustments to the pedal.
So...

We're able to kind of
optimize front and rear.

Six piston front Wilwoods,

with carbon ceramic rotors.

The rear's four piston.

So, brakes definitely feel
a lot better than they have.

Well, somebody's gotta
drive it, make sure it's not
gonna break down

the first time we give it back
to the customer clear
across the country.

the first time we give it back
to the customer clear
across the country.

Yeah, lot better.

The handling on the car
really feels good too.

Very responsive.

Doesn't feel sloppy at all.

This is really nice.

I think that's about enough
proving it to me.

Car's amazing around
the corners.

Car stops and goes,
turns wonderful.

Car stops and goes,
turns wonderful.

That's why you insist on
putting a couple of hundred
miles if we can on a car.

To really just shake it down,
make sure if it's gonna
break down,

it breaks down on us,

so we can simply fix it.

Make sure it's valet-proof,
as I call it.

And then send it to
the customer so they can
drive it and enjoy it.

All in all, man, this thing
feels ready to go home.

I think Ernie's gonna really
love this car.

This has been such a great
experience to build this
Pantera for Ernie.

He's been a great client.

He gave us a lot of freedom
to do whatever we want
with this car.

The guys in the shop
did an awesome job,
from start to finish.

The guys in the shop
did an awesome job,
from start to finish.

The car turned out awesome.

It is truly one of my
very favorite Bitchin' Rides.

Double check
all the suspension,

make sure all the hardware
has been torqued down again.

Everything else seemed to
have checked out all right.
There we go.

Whoo-hoo! [laughs]

All right. Well... [sighs]

That's that.

[kisses] Que belle.

-Nice on the adjustment.
-Yeah.

-Nice on the adjustment.
-Yeah.

It's much better.

Car handles awesome now.
Pull just goes straight.

Doesn't pull left or right,

doesn't pull when you hit
the brakes.

Brakes feel 100 times better.
So, thanks for
that adjustment.

Like to check the temperature
on the exhaust.

Until the car is actually not
actually in the garage
of the owner,

we never really stop working
on it.

What's the exhaust at?

So, the exhaust is 205.

The heat shield area is...



It's perfect. That heat
shield did the job.

Every detail on every car
that we deliver to a customer

Every detail on every car
that we deliver to a customer

is looked over multiple times,

to make sure we
haven't missed anything.

It's rare to have a car
come back here

and we pride ourselves
on that very much.

We'll pull it off, make it
match the rest of the exhaust.

And I think this car's
about ready to go.

Like to do a full torque down,

just double check everything
underneath the car.

And just make sure
everything just, you know,
double check everything.

Make sure it's tight.

We really do get attached to
these cars when we build 'em.

And of course,
the relationship with
our clients,

well, they're everlasting.

And in this particular case,

And in this particular case,

we love Ernie, we've done
a couple cars now for him.

To see this one go back
to his garage,

it's gonna be awesome.

We're gonna be sad
to see it go,

but we're sure happy for it to
get into his car collection.

I'm excited to start making
some phone calls and get
this car out to Boston.

-It's sad.
-Don't be sad.

[chuckles]

You can be a little sad,
but it's gotta go.

-I know.
-[laughs]

All right. Good job, guys.

Enjoy it, Ernie.

[man 6] These are farm trucks,

but now we're making it
into a world class show truck.

[Dave] Now that the Pantera
is done and ready to rock,

it's time to get back onto
the C10, full throttle.

I wanna see all the hard work
pay off.

[Dave] A reinforced chassis,
body line changes,

[Dave] A reinforced chassis,
body line changes,

and a new hood is gonna make
this truck over the top.

[Will] I'd have to say,
that's pretty spectacular.

Now it's time to push
this truck, and the guys,
a lot further.

Whoo! [laughs]

[Kevin] The truck is
body worked to perfection.

It's ready to split.

So now, all we have
to do is what?

I'm just gonna
dry fit these up.

And we'll make couple of cuts,

And we'll make couple of cuts,

-see what release we need
around the doors.
-Okay.

Before we split this truck
and put it on the rotisserie

for the guys in the body shop,

we're gonna have to do
a little bit trim work.

On the trim.

-[Kenny] Trim it up...
-[Kevin] Finish the ends.

...finish the ends
and call it a day.

-Yeah.
-Sweet. This has been
a long time coming

and I'm super excited
for this truck to be finished.

-So... [laughs]
-I believe it.

[Eric] Got a set of nice,
even line

off of this bodyline here,

where I'm gonna put
the bottom of the trim.

where I'm gonna put
the bottom of the trim.

It's just kind of help me
make sure that I stay

at the same distance
up this bodyline,

which I think is gonna
be pretty important.

Here's a little
bit of contour.

Just mainly here
in the fenders,

the nose kind of pinches in
a little bit.

[Dave] You don't wanna force
your hands on the trim.

This is really something that
needs to be done very,
very carefully.

So, you do it once,
do it right and then,
have it perfect.

[Eric] It's so super soft.

[Eric] It's so super soft.

I mean, it's a good thing
and a bad thing.

It moves easy.

I've just gotta roll this down
under this door here.

And sometimes,
for details this fine,

it's really nice to have
an extra set of eyes.

-We to our local
celebrity here.
-Do I have to?

You know, I'm pretty sure
a guy like Jordan has hobbies

like quantum physics,
interstellar quantum
physics stuff,

smart things and LEGOs.

The, you know, that are
smarter LEGO kits.

So really, the trim should be
a breeze for him, right?

That did something.

-[Eric] It kind of needs
to twist.
-[Jordan] Forward, yeah.

Oh, yeah.

-[Jordan] Ooh!
-I think that might be
the one right there.

[Jordan] I like that.

[Dave] Now that the trim
is trimmed, it's time to get
the cab

onto the rotisserie.

Oh, it's gonna be
sketchy, dude!

It's gonna be a little sketchy
for a minute.

An enormous amount of
blood, sweat and tears

has got this cab
to perfection.

Lifting it up in the air,
we need to be very careful.

Lifting it up in the air,
we need to be very careful.

The cabs are so short,

I have a hard time reaching it
with my arm,

on the lift, not my arm,

but the lift arm.

So, I have to usually put
a board.

So, I think we got a good
hold on it.

I shook around a little bit.

So hopefully, we can get
the frame out from under here

and we'll get
the rotisserie put in,
get this thing done.

Here we go.

Now it's time to get
the C10 cab off of
the chassis.

Most important thing,
do not drop it.

-[clinks]
-Whoa!

I just wanna get this done
as quickly as possible

so we don't have this cab
hanging out on the lift.

I'm just gonna cut these
off real quick

and then, just move them in.

It'd probably take me longer
to cut it off

than anything else.

Progress is actually been
going really great.

But I do have to say,

I have one question
in the back of my mind.

I wonder where Dave is.

Just wondering. I'm pretty
much over halfway done
with this thing

and I hope he's designing
something real epic.

and I hope he's designing
something real epic.

[laughs] Oh! You wanna dance?
You wanna dance pretty?

Oh, Dancing, dancing.
Dancing pretty.

Who's my pretty boy?

Oh, yeah.

Good boy.

[Kevin] Square it up,
sit it down,

put some welds on it
and we done.

put some welds on it
and we done.

Who's my good boy?
You wanna sit?

No. Sit. Sit, sit, sit,
sit, sit, sit, sit, sit, sit.

Sit. Sit. No, sit pretty.

Sit. [kisses] Sit.

Sit. Sit.

-Sit. Sit. No.
-[clicking fingers]

You wanna dance?

Who's a dancer? [gasps]

[speaking gibberish]

Ooh, baby, baby, baby!

[laughing] Oh...

Do you like that lettuce?

That's what my dinner eats.

[softly] Can I have a kiss?
I have treats.

[normal] Just a little one,
on the cheek?

Or I'll give you one.
All right.
[speaking gibberish]

Oh, you're such a good boy.
[kisses]

Oh, you're such a good boy.
[kisses]

I think I pretty much
got this slick without
Dave's help, again.

[Dave] It's about time, Kev.
Let's get this thing
in the booth.
