Got a samurai sword?

Found a great, a great, a great use.

Oh, you cut down, you cut down the seat foam with this sword.

It's brilliant. I didn't have a gigantic electric steak knife.

Yeah.

Well, cutting electric knife, but you know, I figured that actually to be honest with you, I started with this.

Yeah, you started with the.

And it was a little jaggedy knife.

And now this was given to me from Bristol.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah.

But yeah, it came in handy.

Remember, I wanted to kill myself with it last week.

Now things have changed and it's actually, actually came in handy a minute ago.

Throughout this project, I've found myself doing a number of things and now I'm an upholster.

So that's the seat for the Cobra, right?

So you're on the Cobra project.

If you're, if you're now that the body's on, you're getting yourself a little bit fitted, more fitted into it.

Get the tilt column, get the shifter located.

Get the seat installed.

The roll bar not yet, right?

I think the roll bar is still not yet.

But if you cut down the seat foam, the cushion, the, the upholstery is not going to fit exactly the same anymore.

Unless you can find a way to tuck it underneath.

Absolutely.

That's why you cut the seams and do what you do, right?

I mean, it's a bottom of a Cobra seat.

You know, you know how those are.

Yeah.

If there are a dime a dozen, you can go to any upholster and they can make one.

So I mean, it's, for me, I'm just trying to do things quickly here at the, at the garage so that I can move to the next step.

And I mean, I could write a book and I'll be doing a number of YouTube videos about this process.

But, you know, I don't know, last week we were talking about us being this close to starting it.

Yeah.

I mean, you know, as well as anybody, especially at this day and age and this time of year around SEMA time, getting things done when you think you're going to get them done doesn't always happen.

So, you know, I mean, one thing leads to another to another and then schedules and all kinds of stuff.

So extremely long story short, we've come together a couple of times since you and I have spoken and that was going to be the day, right?

So, and you always incur little problems.

And I am here to report that there is nothing left to do.

Okay.

Wow.

Vero were completely done.

The only problem was is that last night, my race feels been sitting here for so long.

I don't know how it got bad.

It might have eaten part of the tank.

But I actually had no fuel last night, like zero here at the garage that I was willing to put in the Cobra.

Now it's tuned on 93.

So all I had to do is have, you know, super premium around here.

I didn't have a drop of it, but it gave us an opportunity to make sure every single thing.

I mean, let me just tell you how the night went.

Okay.

The last plug it goes in, which was the digital guard dog, right?

So the push button start.

Yeah.

First of all, let me let me back up a little bit.

Wiring.

I'm telling you, man.

I'm not the biggest fan of it by any stretch of the magic.

What a lobotomizing sequence watching these two guys go over this last week.

Right.

Just try to vet out everything that's going on, right?

As far as, you know, there's a lot of redundancy.

And then with these extra boxes, extra doodads hanging on the firewall,

whether it be the Dakota digital, the Ron Francis, the, the MSD, the digital guard dog,

everything's got to talk to each other and everything's got redundancy in it.

Right.

And I'm learning these things as we go.

And I have, I had no, I didn't even have rudimentary knowledge of, of wiring prior and now watching

these guys.

I mean, let's just put it this way to make an extremely long story short.

We put the last, the digital guard dog in, plug it in, video it, go to the back.

Everybody takes their spot.

I didn't have a fire extinguisher, but there was no fuel in the car.

So it didn't really matter that much.

And we were just bumping it because we'd already primed it and, you know,

took the belt off, ran the, the, the distributor.

You got the oil pump.

Oil pump.

Yeah.

And we got everything going through and I bumped the, the, the main power switch.

Right when I powered it up, it started, it tried to start.

So the starter just bumped.

And we all three, thankfully I had cameras on because the reaction on all of our faces.

First and foremost, I'm glad it was a neutral, obviously.

Yeah.

You know, thank God it was off the ground.

I was going to ask, was it even on the ground?

No, it was two inches off the ground.

Right.

Okay.

We've been moving it up and down.

It had been going up and down probably 3000 times in the last four days.

Literally we got three guys thrashing on this car and everybody's got their

hands on this and agenda and it's a cobra and the cockpits that big.

Yeah.

I mean, raise it up please man.

I got to get to the boat and then, you know, the deal.

Yeah.

Um, yeah, it's, uh, we're there dude.

We're there.

Something with the, something with the ignition switch that once you gave

it power, it was, it was starting instead of going to like an accessory

mode or something.

Well, that's that, uh, my second car build, uh, worst case scenario guy

wiring.

Yeah.

Which wire is it?

We just did a custom wiring harness.

You know, uh, how long did it take us?

How many nights did we deal with it?

And now we have to chase one wire, right?

But I was amazed at how quickly they were able to, to figure it out.

Yeah.

It was good to have three people there.

But, um, they eliminated probably four of the boxes within two

minutes.

And so we, uh, we came to the conclusion that it was in the,

the engine compartment.

So it wasn't, was no wires in the cab whatsoever.

So we lifted it up, looked at the starter.

Uh, there was, it was weird because, and that's a question

that I can ask him.

Uh, now I can learn, but on the starter, it looks like it had a

jump.

It was a wire that, that looked like it jumped itself.

And all we did was unplug it because it was, it gave itself

constant power.

Right.

So any starter solenoid, there was, there was some sort of

wire, like a jumper wire.

So it was, it was constantly triggering the solenoid.

So anytime the power go on, boom and start.

And it was an extremely simple solution.

It was, it was unplugging that.

And that was it.

Well, we unplugged that and there was one wire that, that was,

hadn't been plugged in yet.

And it went to the, to the starter and it fed more power

to the, to the dash.

And so it, I guess it completed the circuit.

So, um, unhooked one, hooked the other one up, put it on

the ground, ready to rock.

The start button works in conjunction with everything else.

And I mean, like I said, that, that to me was the biggest

nightmare is you hook everything up and, and designate

certain things to do certain things and hope to God that

when you push that button, everything works in conjunction.

And man, it was fabulous.

I mean, Clint from, uh, that own CGC and Manny, those guys,

man, I don't know what I would have done without them.

But, uh, I gotta say it was extremely smooth compared to

what?

Yeah.

The nightmares I've heard.

When you're, when you're trying to wire up, like you said,

like all the different components from different manufacturers,

you've got the, the modules for the Dakota digital stuff.

You've got the MSD ignition stuff.

You know, obviously you're a starter solenoid.

You're, you're, you're now your push button ignition.

What, what I do, I don't, I haven't done a ton of the

wiring like you're talking about other than like

audio systems.

I built a bunch of audio systems and stuff.

And, and yeah, what I, what I like to do when the dust settles

is, and you could do this on the Cobra because it's so small

and it's still fairly analog at this point, but, um, I give

it power and like an accessory mode.

And then I try to like touch some wires to make sure

nothing is getting hot.

Much to everything.

We let smell 100% dude.

Yeah.

Here's the work for Peter built.

And he was at the end of the line, finishing up the wiring.

If wiring's, if the harnesses were, were done incorrectly,

he'd be the last straw, you know, before it hit the floor.

And, and he's really good.

He's really good.

And they were extremely thorough.

And yes, I mean, we had, we had the, the heat gun out,

you know, and we actually looked at it through my thermal,

which was kind of cool.

Um, but, uh, we ran checks beforehand, hooked it up to the

battery, um, ran power.

We were, they ran each individual wire and, you know,

tested each one of them connection wise and made sure,

I mean, I was in charge of the grounds, which was a lot

of fun.

Um, but man, I, it, it was fricking awesome.

It was cool.

I mean, we finished up at one o'clock in the morning.

I think Manny's wife's going to throw him out of the house.

Um, you know, Clint's wife's giving him the opportunity to do

it because he uses his therapy, which all of us do.

And, uh, man, it's just exciting as hell.

Man, they're probably more excited than I am.

That's good though.

That's good that there are so many of them,

but Clint is just like a kid in a candy store, man.

He wants to be here more than I do.

That's not even his car.

Um, now granted, he's going to, he's going to build

one afterwards and, uh, Sarah coat, you know,

themselves have a lot to do with kind of sponsoring this car.

And, um, it's, it's so much fun, dude.

It really is.

It's you, you've got a lot of favors to repay someone.

They're building those cars.

You better get your butt over there.

Absolutely.

But, but those are good guys to hang out with a hundred

percent, but then it's a completely different process.

Right.

I mean, it's, I've done it before and I know what to expect

and I know how to rectify certain problems and I know

what not to do.

And, uh, you know, you're always going to screw up and you're

always going to have things go awry, but for the most part,

if you have a good game plan, it's like anything else.

Um, and it's, you know, shooter preference and seat time.

The, the more experience you have, the easier to get.

Manny does this shit with his eyes closed.

Yeah.

The only problem is, is that a couple of the things he applied

to the Cobras that he builds to my car, which is a completely

different car.

Um, structurally, you know, dimension wise, uh, they're

just different.

So what may apply to his doesn't necessarily apply to mine.

And he thought a couple of things applied instantly.

And we had to rectify it, but there's no big deal.

But yeah.

Yeah.

But how would you even know?

He can do with his eyes closed.

Yeah.

I mean, running, running the, running the, the, uh, harness.

Right.

You know, on his cars, they may be easier to run it on

the right side of the vehicle.

My car, originally it was on the driver's side and we

ended up moving it because of the con, not the convenience,

but the user friendliness of the way he builds it

compared to the way mine was built, whatever.

So just little tiny things like that.

Okay.

So, and then you bumped it.

So we know the starter works.

We know it, it turns the engine over, but now we need

to get fuel to it.

Yeah.

I already got, I got, you kidding me?

I woke up at six o'clock this morning.

I went to the, yeah.

We're ready.

And then you, you prime the fuel pump.

Does that electric pump?

It has electric pump on this car.

Yeah.

So prime the fuel pump, check for leaks.

Yeah.

We don't have, there's, we haven't, well, we had a little

bit of a leak out of the sump, but that's because of my

ignorance, not putting up.

Yeah.

But for the most part, yeah, everything's been fine.

Breaks.

We got to believe that, excuse me, we got to believe the

brakes.

But I mean, fluids are all in, kents on standby

on his face time.

I've talked to him probably 50 times in the last 48

years.

He's having more fun with it than I am.

It's really cool to see the guys that originally built

this thing kind of, you know, walk me along.

Yeah.

Teach me about it.

And it's, it's awesome, man.

It's so much fun.

So when, when do you guys fire it up?

I know everybody wants to be there.

Yeah.

You just have to wait till everybody can show up.

Yeah.

Right.

Because they want to be there for that.

Yeah.

I would do it without them.

Are you kidding me?

They would absolutely run my head over with a tire.

Yeah.

So you check for leaks.

You got fuel in it.

You're going to fire it up.

Check the timing.

See how it idles.

Check the timing.

Let it get up to temp.

I am so excited to do all things because they're

not laborious and they're fun.

And at the end of that process, you know, you

get to hear this thing freaking roar into life.

Now you're firing it up, but you're not going to

drive it yet.

You got to bleed the brakes.

Like you said, we don't have the shocks.

I didn't tell you about that.

Oh, that's right.

You mentioned that before, actually the shocks.

But I pulled.

So the front two shocks, the diameter on the

springs is no, no, no.

So took all the dimensions, spoke to Moe from

unique motor cars.

And the guys actually that built this car with

Ernie, I picked up the phone called unique

motor cars.

They answered the phone.

They're the owners of the place.

And they're great guys.

And the ones that they told me the story about

Ernie.

Yeah.

Putting in a ditch a couple of times.

But great guys.

And they gave me all the dimensions on the

shocks that the QR ones, I think they use.

QA ones.

Yeah.

And they gave me all the dimensions on

there.

The spring rates, the weights and tried to

match them up.

And I pulled all the shocks off, sent them

out Saturday or Friday morning.

And Bilstein, Tim Goddard, got them yesterday

and today he's putting the package together

overnight in them to us.

So I got sick.

I got sick shocks to put in.

Which is fun in and of itself.

Yeah.

I took one of the tires off, one of the

wheels and tires off and obviously with

knockoffs.

I mean, the first time I dealt with the

knockoffs and mounting them, it's a, not only is

it laborious, but it's kind of screws you

through your mind, right?

Like the last thing you want is one of those

wheels flying off.

Yeah.

So whether you're tying the bolts together

with the wire or you're making sure that

everything, you know, that everything seats

in before you, before you ring that thing,

that ring the spinner down.

Yeah.

I was not looking forward to taking off

all four of them to get the shocks out,

but I didn't need to by any means.

I took one off, went through that process

and took the two rears off on the driver's

side and then came to the conclusion that

I didn't need to take any other wheels off

because I could just put this thing all the

way up in the air and get up under it

and I pulled them all out pretty easy.

On the Lamborghini

mirrors, it had the knockoffs

that we put them on and then you

tap them down because they've got, you know,

the wings on them.

You tap them down with the lap hammer.

I didn't tap mine down.

I fucking slugs, you know, slung that.

Yeah.

You give it a bit of an effort.

Now on the on the mirror SV,

it's got such a deep dish.

It's like it's tough to get in there

with the same, same thing.

Lead hammer.

So you're the only one that had an issue.

Yeah.

And those cars didn't have.

Those cars don't have the safety wire.

And if we install the safety wire,

it's tough to show the car because you're

like, you know, it's not, it's not original.

It's two different things.

You guys aren't taking that thing out

and pushing it to the limits.

No, but like, but for what you're

doing, though, is it's like,

you're just, you just want to get the car on the

ground and, and, and do a few laps around

the garage first and then bring it in,

check for leaks again.

And then once it, once you know it's good,

you don't have to keep taking the wheels on and off.

You could safety wire it down.

But obviously you can drive the thing.

Yeah.

And the thing is this thing's got clips.

It seems as if it supersedes,

having to do the laborious bullshit

from bolt to bolt.

It has clips that go through the spinner.

It hooks from the spinner to the wheel itself.

So, you know, it, it, it, you do the same

attachment, but you don't have to string it

all the way around the circumference of the wheel.

Yeah.

You wouldn't have to do that.

It would just be like probably a whole

drilled in the, in the spinner,

in the spinner to a whole drill in the wheel.

You do the one safety wire.

That's all you need to do.

And on, on the racing cars,

like on Adam's cars, that's a center lock,

but obviously not a spinner.

And we have one giant

socket.

I mean, one giant night.

I'd love to be able to do that.

And, and we have like a six foot long torque wrench

and it's just for the wheels.

And it's just, just, and then there's a pin

that often goes through the,

because the, the,

the threads obviously stick out more

and then there's a pin that goes through.

So if it loosens and it backs off,

it doesn't come off completely.

That's a safety pin that,

that goes through it.

And it's, it's much quicker to do all of that

than what you're talking about to safety wire.

It's, it's a pain in the ass, but.

Yeah.

We talked about this before about the,

about the hammer and how believable the hammer is

in that you can smash that spinner with it.

And you look at that hammer and it's so malleable.

I mean, it looks like it's Play-Doh.

It's the lead.

Yeah.

The, the hammer always gets screwed up.

Yeah.

But the spinner doesn't show a nick.

It's amazing.

Yeah.

It's pretty cool.

Yeah.

I mean, I wouldn't lick that thing like a lollipop,

that lead hammer, but.

Don't worry.

I don't know.

It's sort of.

Weird.

Something you'll get from that.

It's weird how you can swing it, man.

And, and there's no.

Obviously there's damage to the hammer,

but, and you get it, but it's, it's just.

It's weird.

Yeah.

But so, so now.

Do, do you have fluids in the transmission in the rear end yet?

Yeah.

That was fun.

The tranny was fun.

Okay.

Yeah.

It's like.

Get the transmission in, put the transmission tunnel on and

then fill it, you know, and all this would have been a

lot easier with the trans tunnel, not on there.

Like I said, man, you know, I mean,

after going through this one time,

you have things that you screwed up on that can apply to any

other vehicle.

The next time you're definitely going to.

Yeah.

I mean, a thousand percent, but, but.

In, in all honesty, it wasn't that much of a pain in the

ass.

I mean, you get a funnel and you get a freaking tube and you

stand up and I mean, it wasn't that bad, but.

Yeah.

It's easier to just do this.

Yeah, it would have.

I mean.

Yeah.

Sometimes like.

You've, you have a handful of muscle cars when it's tucked

up under that tunnel.

Sometimes you have to use the pump.

You can't get the bottle in there and you can't.

So you kind of have to, you know, get the pump to do it.

So if you guys started up today and it's still on the

lift, if anything just for, for safety to get it off the

ground without the shocks on it, but you can still get

it up to 10 because the timing, you can run through

the gears.

I could do everything other than drive it.

And then other than move the car.

So now you can run through the gears.

You can see how that, how that shifter feels.

You know, and if you need to adjust the placement or if you

end up making a new shifter handle or something like that

down the line, that, that's fine.

Like some things are to be expected, but so far it's.

Everything is an issue, man.

I mean, yeah, everything is an issue.

Coming up, coming to the conclusion of.

How I'm going to display the boots, right?

I'm not going to do matching boots on the things.

Am I going to do, cause as it sits right now, the shifter's

got a round traditional, you know, boot on it and the,

the e-brake or the, the vertical handbrake, whatever

you want to call it.

It's square, right?

Because it's right on the edge and it has to actually

lean over the edge on the tunnel.

Yeah.

So aesthetically that looks like shit.

So how am I going to do it?

So I mean, just now I'm to the, you know, little stuff like

that, which is absolutely cool with shit.

Yeah.

Do I do carbon fiber bezels on it?

Well, do I do carbon fiber bezels that match each other?

Do I do the same boot?

I'm going to put it online and do like a vote or something

because I figured out I've got like five different boots,

different shapes, different sizes.

So I want to put a leather piece.

There's a piece about this big on the, on the dash.

Yeah.

Okay.

So the shifter's here, the trannies here and the e-brakes here.

So you have a square, a circle here and you have a square here.

So do you do just a pad like this that's leather and then

put the boots on top of that?

Do you do carbon fiber individual bezels on them?

I mean, I don't know.

Yeah.

But it's, you know, someone can stitch you up.

Someone can stitch you up a boot that has one footprint

and then has two, you know, you know what I'm saying?

It's like the differential selector and, you know,

it's like on a Jeep.

Yeah.

I don't know.

I don't know what's going to look.

I mean, I think that's going to look like shit on the Cobra.

I mean, I don't know.

I don't know what to do.

It's such a minimalistic car.

Every single thing you do stylistically jumps right out at

you, especially if it's not black because there's nothing on here

that's not black except for like two bezels in the shift knob.

Yeah.

So I don't know what to do, but it's a cool problem to have.

Well, I'm down to that.

Even that, like you kind of want to, before you decide on it

completely, get in the car, shift the car, you know, once you're,

I know you've been in it, you've shifted it,

but once the car is in there and moving and you're getting yourself

settled in, you'll figure out where you want that.

You might want to make a different handle for the drift

brake or a different handle for the, for the shifter.

I'm going to have to make sure, I mean, quite obviously

when you get in the driver's seat, you want everything to

have one be accessible.

You want it to be safe.

You want it to be accessible and you want it to be convenient

and you want it not to be in an obstruction.

So if I have the shift knob here and the problem is, is that,

you know, I'm doing, I'm doing dimensions of the hole from

the shifter and worrying about reaching for the shift lever

compared, now am I going to hit the e-brake, the vertical

e-brake?

Now, am I going to, in pulling it off the shifter, is it going

to be an easy throw?

Is it too high?

Is it too low?

Well, the problem is, is that I didn't, I didn't take the

wheel into consideration.

I took the shifter into consideration, but when I put

the freaking wheel on, I was like, oh my God.

And so we had to tilt it.

Oh, I see.

Yeah.

We had to put, we had to put washers in it and

literally, you know, angle the, the, the vertical

handbrake, you know, either towards the shifter or

towards the wheel.

And so it's like, it's perfectly in the middle as

it sits right now.

And after I drive it, you know, obviously it's the,

the throw of the thing too.

It's all the little details.

I mean, because right now I got to move this thing

like three inches for it to engage.

Whereas I want it to just pop like a, you know,

like a sequential transmission, you know, go like

an inch, you know, then it engages.

But to do that, I have to take the handle off of the

mount that's on the transmission that's already

under the hump.

And I have to literally take the left, take, take the,

the bolt out of, of the lever and then unscrew the

nut, which shortens the throw.

Right?

Yeah.

So how am I going to do that right now?

I mean, it's just, so I got to wait for Manning to

get over here because his hands are much smaller

and he can manipulate it from up top.

And I can, so I was, I got really claustrophobic

a couple of days ago because I was up under the

tunnel and we were trying to put that, that

vertical e-brake in with the bracket.

And I had my hands up in the tunnel around the

tranny on top where the e-brake is.

And I'm underneath the car and my arm gets stuck.

And I flipped out.

It was not fun, but it's just little tiny stuff

like that.

Yeah.

Great.

You know, when we were putting it together to,

I looked at it too and I didn't even think about

it.

And it's just that little thing that is such a pain

in the butt to get to now.

And it makes it inconvenient to drive because

you want it short throw.

So it's just, I'm benching it Manning.

I know, but these are just the little things

that you'll dial in after the fact.

I'll find like 6,000 more of them.

Yeah.

There's going to be a handful of things, but it's,

it's fine.

That's, that's, that's part of the process.

I mean, once you guys get it fired up and

then for sure, once the shocks are on and

you get around, you know, you're, you'll bring it

back in, you'll double check stuff.

Again, you'll check for leaks.

You make sure nothing's on fire.

No wires smoking.

Yeah.

The bite height.

I mean, just everything.

Yeah.

Every, I mean, we, every single thing's new on

this car.

So I mean, we got to adjust everything accordingly

and it's going to take a little while to

get that figured out.

I mean, I'm excited to see what these

Bill's themes feel like, you know,

comparatively.

So.

So those were sent out and, and it's a

smaller diameter coil spring that are on the,

you know, because that was, yeah.

One's in the rear shorter because I depressed

them or compressed them as much as humanly

possible.

And they, I still had a five inch gap.

So there's shorter shocks in the rear.

Yeah.

Okay.

So in that, that IRS.

And the back is a quad shock.

There's two on each side.

Yeah.

And the brand and to take them out,

it's, it's brilliantly done.

So the bolt to that runs through.

So it bolts the underside of the frame

and the two shocks.

Mount either side of it.

And when you undo the bolt,

you can't pull it out because it hits the,

it hits the gas tank.

Right?

Yeah.

But you have, so it's a bracket.

So you have to take the bracket off that holds

the bolt.

Okay.

Yeah.

You know, and it's just, it was brilliant.

Cause if that, if that wasn't there,

if you couldn't take that off, I don't know

what I was going to do.

Right.

Do you pull the gas tank out?

Oh, but it's now, excuse me.

It wasn't the gas tank.

It was the body.

I thought it was the tank cause that's what I was going to do.

I was just going to, oh, no big deal.

Just pull the gas tank out.

It's four bolts, but it's not, it's the body.

It's the body.

Yeah.

Right.

I can't, I can't move that.

And I'm not going to drill a hole in it.

And all I needed was a quarter of an inch,

literally because the bolt was like right there.

Right.

So just little things like that.

That now next time, I'll know.

You know,

somebody must have figured that out a while ago,

which is why they made the bracket removal.

Brilliant.

Yeah.

Absolutely brilliant.

Cause I don't know how you do it otherwise.

Okay.

All right.

Well today, later,

end of day today should be a,

should be a big day.

The guys are coming over and get it fired up and,

and hopefully it goes smoothly,

knock on wood, go smoothly.

And, and, uh, and you're, you're close.

Like on the timing, that shouldn't be too bad.

You know, I, you guys put new distributor and everything in it.

So we did not.

We did not replace the distributor.

Oh, okay.

So you might be good.

Yeah.

You know, I mean,

Manny wasn't super,

super comfortable with replacing the distributor in that.

I'm greatly appreciative of Holly for giving it to us for the

project and it'll go towards the next one.

It'll go towards the next one.

I mean,

I think that's a good point where it's applicable,

but uh,

Why replace a.

A fully good functioning distributor.

That's almost brand new.

And it's the same type of distributor.

Do a point.

I mean,

so, I mean, why mess with it, this,

we're already completely set up carburetor set.

Everything set.

The only thing I'm worried about is the linkage because.

You know, it's like a four part linkage.

because the throttle pedal, we're only getting like half of it. We're not getting full throttle.

The pedal hits the floor before, I mean, the pedal hits the floor, honestly, at about a fourth

throttle. That's the safety measure. That's the valet switch, basically, is if you could only go

25% throttle, keeps you safe initially. Well, that's, yeah, and that's like the

the steel braided hose, the fuel line, right? So it was kind of starving itself because it

descended. It went, it got into a smaller line when it went into the log. Well, we changed that.

Yeah, okay. No bigger line. So, yeah, right. We're not going to be starving for anything with this car

except for traction. Yeah. That distributor issue,

I'm heading into that pretty soon. Holley sent me some parts for the truck, right? For the 95

truck. I put the starter on it, which went smoothly. I just posted the video of that.

Oh, that's so easy. That distributor freaks me out, man.

And I got to do the distributor. I got to do the distributor. I'm going to do plugs.

You do wires. They sent me an MSD box that I can control a little bit of the timing on it.

Make sure you turn the rev limiter off at the beginning or you adjust it.

Yeah. So when I do the MSD box, this is their new box. I think it's a 6AL plus and it has

like some boost retard because that truck has the little supercharger on it. Now,

I'm not expecting it to solve all of the issues. The truck is

so old and has so many miles on it that I know I'm getting some blow by. So either the valves,

something's leaking, piston rings, or valve seals, or something. I'm just trying to get it to...

And I'm building another engine for it at some point. I just don't have the time

and the space for it right now. I don't have the warehouse anymore. So it's sitting in the

warehouse covered. But when I drove it, I parked it there last November and I drove it like

a month or two ago and I could barely keep it running. It drove like shit. I drove it around

the neighborhood and it was just... It wasn't good. But it did drive better before. So I just

want to give it a tune up, see if I can get it to go. And I kept thinking the distributor

was one of the things I didn't replace before that I think should be replaced on this.

And I'll use it in the new engine as well, which is why we got everything from them anyway.

So yeah, I'm going to be doing that next. You're right.

If I had an extremely similar distributor, just a newer model, and I marked everything,

marked location, wouldn't that pretty much duplicate the situation that I had?

It should be good. It should be good to go. You're right. If you marked everything

when you pulled that distributor out, you put the new distributor in, line up the marks.

And because the gear has kind of an angle to it, when you put it in, like you have a mark,

you kind of put it in a little bit turned. So when the gear sets, the marks line up.

So it swivels a little bit when you put it in. If you nail it, you're usually good.

And if you don't nail it, you're usually just off by one tooth. And even if you started it,

you'd figure that out pretty quickly. And then you can you can pull off. So even

even though you want to do the timing again with the new distributor in it,

you should, if you hit the marks, you should be pretty much good to go. It's not like

it will fire up. It'll fire up. Yeah. Yeah. It should be almost spot on.

Yeah. You want to check the the timing and stuff again, you know, give it a little

a little bit at RPM. I don't know, 2000 or something. And then it's at the timing again.

That's where Fox has said at 2000. Yeah.

A couple of things like when you're doing it, and I'll go through these issues as well when

I do it on the truck is, you know, I was watching somebody else's video the other day or something

like that. And they were they were saying that it wasn't working right. And the timing seemed off.

It's because when they clipped to the to the number one spark plug wire,

it wasn't making a good connection. It wasn't clipping on the right. And it was throwing

off the, the, the reading of the timing, you know, so, yeah, you know, if your battery connection's

good, your clip onto the wire and it's good and your timing light is decent, then you should,

you should be able to, you know, get it, get it dialed in. I don't think the distributor would

be that big of a deal. If you can. Hey, let's just put it this way. If everything else goes

great, then why not change the distributor? Yeah. So, but that's got the big, the distributors

in the back, right by the firewall. I didn't have a big Chevy engine in it.

What? The Cobra? It's got a 351 Windsor in it. Oh, the 351 Windsor. Yeah.

Then yeah, it's easier in the front. The damn G1 Windsor SVO heads. Yeah.

Now I'm a fucking Ford guy. Hey, talking to Clint or talking to Kent Waters, you remember,

do you know Kent? I don't think so. Kent was one of, one of Ernie's right hand man. I mean,

he took care of everything, but between Bill and Ernie, the shops, he was, I don't know,

like the folks, like the, he ran it all, right? And he built this car and he's,

he's really good friends with Ernie. He's been with that family for 40 years, right? And like I

say, he's having so much fun walking me through it. He's making me FaceTime him and he's, it's,

it's like a dad walking his kid through something, but he's enjoying it. But you should FaceTime and

put him on a tripod while you guys are starting it up. Oh, I'm gonna have a thousand percent.

There's no way I can do this thing alone. I mean, there's too many people that really jumped,

jumped on the project and helped me out. So yeah, it'll be like a party. I cracked open a beer

last night when we fricking herded crank over, man. It was, it's exciting. It's awesome. I mean,

I remember the, I mean, as long as all the wiring and everything's done properly, everything

should be fine because it was running well before we started to rip it apart. Got like 200, 300 miles

on the motor. So yeah, you're right. The engine, nothing needed to be changed on the engine. You

didn't have to take a valve cover off or do anything. You know, pretty much good to go. Now,

you probably have to dial in a, because you changed the fuel lines. No, no, we didn't, well,

no, we didn't. You said you put the larger fuel line going to the fuel log. Well, that's it. Literally

from, from, it's probably a three foot line, two foot line. Yeah. So idle, it might be fine. You

might have to dial it in a little bit, the car. I'm sure we're going to have to. Like I said,

I'm worried about the fricking linkage more than anything at this point. Yeah.

You know, because we have limited room and there's just, I don't know how I'm going to,

how I'm going to move it. I just don't, there's no room. Well, you might have to start from scratch.

You might have to reinvent the wheel over there. You know, I'm going to have to, I mean,

it's a rudimentary system, but and I, you know, it can be done. It's just going to be,

it's going to suck because there's no space. Yeah. Right. But I mean, for now,

let's get it fired up, get it dialed in. I'm cool with a quarter throttle. I mean, I can,

I can work off the, the motor. I can work off the carburetor as far as, you know, running the,

running the engine, but I don't need the pedal, but I do eventually. I want a lot more than a

quarter of it. Yeah. You know. All right. Let's, let's take a quick break. We'll be right back.

Is it just me? Or has watching TV gotten way too complicated?

There are a million different services and too many bills to keep track of.

Thankfully, there's Filo, a better way to TV. For as low as 33 bucks a month,

I get the channels I love. MTV, BET, Food Network, you name it.

the ads when I rewatch them. A total game changer.

I signed up directly at Filo.TV. That's P-H-I-L-O.TV.

And if you subscribe today, you can get $8 off your first month.

Filo's the easiest decision I've ever made. Now the hard one.

Deciding what to binge next.

Okay, so before we wrap things up, let's talk about Mustang GTD for a minute.

The guys at Edmunds are getting it on their test track, so we'll go through

the numbers and stuff with them. I'll do that with Alistair on another show.

But I went out to Palm Springs, got invited to drive the GTD.

I didn't do the track day. Some guys were at Thermal on the track.

But met in Palm Springs. They had a couple of the cars there.

They invited a few people. They gave me the keys to a GTD.

They said, we planned a route in the navigation for you if you want.

You go up into the mountains. It's 115 degrees, 110 degrees in Palm Springs.

Once you get up into the mountains, it was gorgeous and it was trees.

And it's just a completely different world up there.

And they're like, here you go. You've got three hours basically to just

go up there and just flex the muscles of this thing.

These are some of the images that I took while I was up there.

They gave me, this is probably your spec here, big guy.

The all black, the total murdered out GTD.

The car is insane. It's like six inches wider. It's lower.

It's got the active arrow all over this thing.

Things beautiful.

It's killer. It really is kind of killer.

I mean, it looks kind of like an Aston, right? To me.

Yeah, it has a bit of that.

I found this art museum over there and had this weird giant silver nugget.

And I was like, oh, that's not a bad photo.

There was something kind of interesting that came up.

So when you open the hood of this,

the GTD has the 5.2 liter supercharged engine with 815 horse power.

The GTD has, so under the hood, you can see it's got this mesh that gives it a lot of heat extractors,

but they even went a step further. Each one of these fasteners

can remove the mesh for a track day, just completely remove them completely.

The carbon fiber body, everything on this thing is functional.

It really is pretty impressive. The trunk lid on it is not even a real trunk lid.

It's just some fasteners and it's removable.

And you can access the rear suspension. There's oil coolers and stuff in there.

The active wing, this thing is pretty insane.

And this video that I'm just looking at is, it's not active because I'm not driving it,

but this thing moves all over.

The rear suspension, a little tough to film,

but it's all about what they did.

The suspension, the guys here at Multimatic that put this car together.

In this video here, you'll see a drop, I believe. There you go.

And it goes quickly, so it lowers. You can, I'll show it again, you can see the front up here on

the front wheel. That's when it goes into sport mode or track mode, rather.

So I will say this, like there are so many cars that you get into these super cars today,

the extreme ones, and you go, oh, I get it. This is the race car for the street.

The 4GT, which you've been in, you're like, this is the race car for the street.

And we say that because it has this incredible performance, but also you realize,

I don't know, it's just like, there's no sound ender. It's loud.

You hear every little pebble hitting the carbon fiber from underneath.

This car to me is a bit of that, but Multimatic did such an amazing job of

making this car compliant. When you put this thing in its normal mode and drive it around,

yeah, the suspension's tough, but nowhere near unlivable. Like I've driven

super cars and stuff that are far more uncomfortable.

It sounds like it's not a Senna by any stretch.

It's not a Senna by any means. And the engineers at Multimatic are proud of this,

and they absolutely should be. The engineering and the way they dialed in this suspension is so

incredible. And I know there's going to be several other testers out there or journalists

that are going into this thing, going, the car is big. It's heavy. It's got all this rubber

in the front. It's going to drive it. It's not happening. It's an absolute beast.

This is an absolute beast. I went up into the mountains and because we were given ample time,

I was given three hours or so to drive this thing. I was able to put it in sport mode.

You can't put it in track mode on the street. It gets so low and it's cooling and venting

underneath would tear off the car. And Multimatic built it. They even said we made all of those

pieces plastic intentionally because in track mode, they are wear items. They will be replaced at some

point. So you don't need track mode. So put it in sport mode, open it up. This thing grips

like you wouldn't believe. Now for starters, you saw it's the 800 plus horsepower engine

out of the GT500 and the Raptor R, but unlike the GT500, it's a trans-axle. So that transmission is

basically in the rear for better weight balance. It's more like what you've seen on the front-engine

Corvette. And you feel it. And you do hear that trans-axle like you would in the GTR.

And the one thing in the GTR, especially the first gen, I say first gen, I mean the modern day ones

when they first started doing it about 10 years ago, you heard a lot of that clinking and clacking

and the clutches doing their thing. So you hear a bit of that, not as loud as the GTR,

but you hear a bit of that. But so much rubber on the ground, but easy to drive,

put it in sport mode, tore up through the canyons. It sticks like glue. It sounds amazing. The steering

feel is perfect. The steering's perfect. The balance is perfect. The calibration on it,

even just putting it without even using the manual paddle shifters, I felt the calibration

for what I was doing was totally spot on. And then when I got traffic up in front of me,

I put it in normal mode and turned the stereo on. It's like, it's got, and you're like, oh, it's,

it's a Mustang. So I tore through the canyons, had a great time, great view. I opened it up

you know, without getting myself in trouble. There's a crazy straight through the trees and

the mountains. Before I even realized what I was doing, it was probably 120 miles an hour

and back off. The brakes are absolutely phenomenal. And then when you do the whole bit that they

set out to you do, you get on the freeway for 10 minutes and you drive back. I just put the radio

on and put the cruise control on because it has cruise control. And in my head, I was like,

why doesn't it even have cruise control? And I was like, but it...

For the funny of this, it's got cruise control.

It was cool. It was dialed in. The craziest thing that I saw up there is for a minute,

I got behind two FedEx trucks and those guys were fucking nuts through the canyons like

they were hauling. I was like, damn, these guys are, they must be just part of their normal like

routine. And, and, and they knew there was no stop. They had like, they didn't have like stops to

pull off. They were, they were both going to the same location. They both pulled off at the

right at the turn. But, and you know, whatever it's like 50, 60 miles an hour that they were doing.

But you can see the line they were taking and how those trucks lean in. I was like,

I don't know if I'd be doing that, but these guys must have figured it out. And there was two

of them. And there was, you know, there was seven or eight minutes there. I was behind

these guys and they were hauling ass. It was, it was funny to watch. I was like,

oh, if I wasn't alone, I get somebody to film this thing. But it's funny. But anyway,

Mustang GTD, super impressive for, for sort of a muscle car, if you will, that has some weight to it.

I'm curious to see what the performance numbers are. We saw what Ford did at the Nürburgring,

which people were doubting. Can it, can it, can it reach those numbers? But

I'll tell you, you're going to hear reviews. You're going to read reviews where they're going to say

they like it better than a zero six, which is not quite priced the same, but it's impressive.

It better be. And it's, it's more than not quite priced the same. It's double-priced

money. Come on. It's 325 grand. You can't get into one for 325. There's no way. I mean,

it's not going to have anything. Let's talk to Kenny. Yeah, it's going to be close to the 400.

Yeah. So I mean, let's be perfectly honest. You're talking about a $400,000 American car,

it better be fucking good. I mean, it better be every single thing that, that you're saying it

is. Yeah. So that's awesome to see that it is. I can't wait to get behind behind the wheel.

Honestly, I think you're going to be impressed. You're going to be impressed by how well it

does all of those things. The front axle lift is quick. When you, when you put it in its track mode

and you see it lower, you can see it in the rear, in the, in the back of the car, the cantilever

suspension with that, with that window that you can see it, you can see how the shocks change

the length. It's done electronically. It's not, it's not hydraulics by, you know, like

there's, it's done with servos. It's done kind of like the new KW shocks that, that extend. And

JRI has, has a version that allows you to change like ride height and stuff. It's,

it's cool. It's impressive and it's quicker. You know, so when you hit the front axle lift,

it's a couple of seconds, it goes, it goes pretty quick.

Killer man. Yeah, it's, like I said, it better be. But I mean, yeah, and there, there's always

going to be haters out there. 100%. I mean, look at the, look at the F40, right? I mean, I don't

want that car to be refined, except for certain, to a certain degree, right? So, I mean, and

that's part of the stuff that you're paying for those little quirks that make it, you know, a race

car, you know, in, in, you know, Louis Vuitton clothing, you know, whatever. Yeah.

Yeah. I think, I think, I think people that get the car and get a chance to actually use it

other than just taking it, you know, the cars and coffee are going to love it. I think they're

going to love it. If, if you, you find one to get behind the wheel of, especially in your

town where you've got. Oh, in, in a heartbeat, you know, a trillion times more so than wanting to get

it in a Corvette because the size difference, that in itself is a huge plus to that car, you know,

and it's just balls out performance. So yeah. When they announced that thing,

when they announced it, people kept saying, and I got this question quite a lot too is,

do you think it's going to hold its value? Do you think it'll be a good investment like the 4GT?

And I was, I was saying to myself, I was like, I don't know if it's going to do exactly what the 4GT

has done value wise because, you know, you're starting with a Mustang, you get into the

interior and it's like the new Mustang, but I will say this, after driving that car

and seeing how impressive that car is, how much more drivable it is even compared to the 4GT,

the 4GT is unique. Practicality. That's, that's where the difference is, right? I mean, it's,

it's, it's so, I mean, I drove that freaking thing from Chicago to New York, right? For,

yeah, who did I drive it for? Bush. Yeah. And that was, that was arguably

the most uncomfortable drive I've ever had. And I went on a diet for a month prior.

So that in and of itself is, I mean, they're two completely different cars. They're different.

But a new generation of kids look, or of people with the money to go out and buy a GTD,

I think the practicality of it alone will make it, I don't know, it's hard to say. It's really hard

to say. I think it'll do well. I think people love the car. It's going to be talked about as a car that,

that people really enjoy. The one to drive them, I think will enjoy them. And I think that's

going to make, I think that's going to make a big difference. I think people are going to go,

I love this thing. You're right. The 4GT, it's, it's so incredible. It's dynamic and you

pull up to any event, any cars and coffee, people are like, Oh, the 4GT is amazing. But you're right.

It's like, are you going to, are you going to sit in that thing for three hours? Like I just did

through the mountains and have, are you going to hit Angeles crest and have a great time with it?

I could see 30 minutes or an hour when you're, when you're pushing the car and enjoying it

and having fun with it. But, but right when you pass that point, it's just that you

can't, I mean, I'm a normal, I'm not a normal human being size wise. So it's hard for me to

really pass judgment on it because I'm not, I'm a mutant, but it's, it's extremely uncomfortable.

I mean, but my, hey, my brother's F40 is probably as uncomfortable.

Yeah.

So, I mean, it's a give and take.

Yeah. Well, anyway, we'll, we'll crunch the numbers on that thing once, once the, once Alistair

and his team get it up on the, on the track, but what's the weight difference between that and the,

in the vet? The weight difference, I think the Mustang GTD is 4,700.

Let's see. Let me look. Mustang GTD is 4,343. So call it 4,400 pounds. Corvette 2,6 weight.

It's probably the 06 is 3,400 pounds. It's a thousand pounds difference between the 06.

What's the ZR1 weights? The ZR1 is 3,900 pounds. Closer. So it's still

4,500 pounds less than the GTD. I mean, you, you feel the weight, but

But it's a good feel. You know, but it's, it's like the weight of the balance of it.

It doesn't feel like a heavy front engine car because again, that transaxle helps out. They

got a lot more weight balance. The arrow, it actually feels in my opinion a little lighter

as you're going faster because that active arrow, it does what it needs to do. And they

crunched all the numbers on that and that active arrow, you know, we hear all these

stories. You could drive it upside down at 150 miles an hour, whatever. I don't know if

you can. It works. It works. It does what it's supposed to do.

But yeah, it's a cool car. It's fun as shit. I thought it was just going to be a hot rotted

Mustang. I thought it was going to be a really expensive GT 500. And then, and I did two days

at, you know, with Ford and Vegas and the GT 500, we drag raced it, we drove it through the

mountains. We hit the road course on it. Like we spoke to the engineers and I did like,

I don't know, five or six passes at Vegas Motor Speedway on the drag strip in that car as well.

And there's no mistaking a GTD for a GT 500. GT 500 is a badass car. The GTD is completely

different. Oh, yeah. It's completely different. It says Mustang. It has a similar engine.

It's got a soul. It seems to me. The sound, the balance, the driving, the steering feel,

like everything just feels different. I feel bad for GT 500 out there, you know, because,

but you're right. But to get, to go from GT 500 to GTD, you're like, ah, it's still a Mustang.

How much we do? Same engine. Like you see where that money went. You definitely see where

that money went. So anyway, it's impressive. It was fun. I hope you get a chance to drive one at some

point because I want to get your feedback on it as well. And having driven so many of the,

like the demons, the drag race versions, the road race versions, you know, the 170 and the,

what's the big tire demon? What's the red eye? Is there another name for the red eye?

Is it the super stock? There's a super, there's a red eye, the super stock. You know, you had your,

you had your, your demon and then you're like, nobody takes the drag race car and turns it into

the road race car. But then the road race car for lack of better term came out. So you were like,

I don't want to undo it. What's, what was that road rate? What's the, that's just the demon

red eye? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Wide body. The wide body car. Yeah. Looking at that car,

that's as close to a GT 500, right? They gave it horsepower. They gave it, you know, bigger,

bigger tires all the way around, a lot of grip in the front. But for both of those cars, you're

still kind of front engine, conventional transmission, you're going to have, you know,

you're not going to have that 50, 50 weight balance, but it's a badass car and it's everything you

want a muscle car to be. The GTD is, is, is, is different in that regard, having the trans axle

and things like that. But, you know, Corvette's been doing it for a while. So this was their

chance to, to, to go after that. But all right. What do you say? We're going to wrap things

up when the guy is coming over a few hours and a day. I got a two hour jump jump on. So

I can go do some upholstery work and oh God. Good luck today. The funny thing is,

we're going to move on to another car next. So just don't know which one it'll be.

Yeah. Well, good luck today. I hope the guys have fun and, and that it goes flawlessly.

All right, guys. Thanks so much. Until next time, I keep the air and the spare

Let's be honest, the idea of buying a car is exciting but actually doing it, not so much.

Dealers calling you asking you when can you come in, bait and switch sales tactics,

yuck, and you definitely don't want to spend an hour listening to a guy named Rick

check with his manager. That's why CarEdge's AI Negotiator is a game changer. It contacts

the dealer and does the haggling for you, and it costs less than painted gas. It's powered by real-time

market data and trained to spot dealer tactics and pricing patterns so it knows exactly what to

push back on to get you the best deal. Here's how it works. You pick the car you want, CarEdge

creates an anonymous email and phone number for you, and then your AI agent reaches out to the

dealer on your behalf and handles the entire negotiation. No weird phone calls, no pressure

sales tactics, and no, quote, I can knock $200 off the price if you buy it today,

nonsense. The AI goes back and forth with dealers until it hits the best price. You get the full chat

history, full transparency, and zero headaches. It's like sending in a car buying assistant

with zero patience for sales tactics. You can try it today back at CarEdge.com

slash AI. That's CarEdge.com slash AI.
