The One-Year Garage: 1960

Hello, everybody, and welcome back to the Bring a Trailer podcast.

My name is Alex Porter.

On today's episode, I'm joined by Randy and Cam doing a one-year garage game, this time

focused on 1960.

We had a lot of fun looking into that model year, doing the research for this episode,

and really enjoyed discussing the cars that were available and maybe even not available

to the car buying public.

Hope you enjoy the episode.

Thanks as always to our producer, Chris Baxter.

Bring a trailer podcast.

What are we doing?

Are we talking about movies today?

Are we talking about cars today?

What are we talking about?

We're talking about 1960, and you had some thoughts on the era, Randy.

I definitely have thoughts on the era.

I was glad you picked this year and that you included me for it.

It's kind of a no man's land a little bit between the 50s and the 60s, right?

You guys were talking about things on the American Graffiti podcast about how the 50s

kind of dragged into 61, 62, right?

Tail fins were kind of reducing in size and some new designs were on the horizon but weren't

here yet.

I thought that made looking for 1960 model year vehicles super interesting because I've

got some of my current like searching lists right now that are 56, 57, and then I've got

some 63, 64, 65.

I've got no 1960 as like the bogey year and as I search through BAT results, how many

thousand were there?

There's about 17.

Yeah, so when I looked earlier today, we had six live and 1,602 previous options.

So a lot of cars from that era, there's plenty to choose from, but it's interesting on what

the designs and what the types of vehicles that were cool, like I love trucks, but trucks

were a little iffy in 1960, big American sedans were a little iffy.

I don't like the Cadillac one year after the big 59 Cad.

Anyway, our decisions of which cars will kind of speak this out, but that's how I found

the year.

How about you guys?

Yeah, definitely, definitely a transitionary time and a lot of different aspects.

I feel like it's kind of encroaching on the end of American confidence a bit.

I feel like 45, you know, war is ending and you have servicemen coming home, suburbs

are popping up, prosperity is happening in America and people are buying up the big

boat vehicles to kind of show off what they're doing.

And I kind of feel like 1960 is when that confidence in how prosperous the future is

going to be kind of erodes a bit and you start to see that bleed into car design going away

from the big boats into more compact designs and different companies trying to figure out

how are we going to approach the American market moving ahead here.

Just a lot of weird test beds for vehicles that are going to come.

Still a harkening for the years past, but yeah, a really interesting year.

But I thought that confidence comes raging back with some beautifulness of 63, 4 or 5.

So it's momentarily gone, maybe, if that's what's indeed driving it.

But I didn't feel like that's gone forever, right?

Like muscle car era and even like a galaxy from 63 is so fabulous and back to huge again.

That confidence and drag strip and all that sort of stuff.

I think maybe if it was a confidence thing that went away, I would still say the 60s,

even though it's tumultuous, there was still in design of these type vehicles,

there was still some real mojo happening.

And same within Europe, like a 9-11 was invented.

Like cool and motorsport was ripping in the middle 60s, right?

It's definitely a year of change.

It's the JFK year, right?

Taken over from Daddy Eisenhower, no more Eisenhower, Supreme Allied Commander as president.

It's famously the first televised presidential debate, right?

Nixon and Kennedy and people who watched Nixon on TV thought he lost because he was sweating.

But when people listened, they thought Kennedy lost because Nixon made smarter points.

So like changing there too, right?

Changing the way people take in their media.

There's a social media analogy there, right?

Of course, yes.

And it is, remember it is.

Who's smart versus who looks good.

Totally, totally.

It's a really, I mean, that's a change in society.

It's also like thick of the Cold War.

Red scare is over, but this is the year Francis Gary Powers is shot down in the U-2

over in the Soviet Union.

That's like one of the big world events in 1960.

So it's a spicy time.

It's missiles in their silos and atom bombs in the bomb bays, right?

It's high tension.

Civil rights movement is really getting kicked in a gear.

That's right.

Yeah, that's right.

Lots happening socially.

But young President Kennedy, there is some optimism there.

I have top films.

We want to talk about top music.

Top film of the year was Swiss Family Robertson.

You see that one?

I love Swiss Family Robertson.

I've seen it for sure.

I didn't know that was the top in the 1960.

That's great.

Some other big ones, Spartacus.

Have you ever seen Spartacus?

The great Stanley Kubrick.

Oh man, that's a good one.

I am Spartacus.

Psycho is 1960.

So that's interesting.

Way further down the list, but a movie I love

and that was influential later, Ocean's 11.

The Rat Pack Ocean's 11 is 1960.

Have you ever seen that one, Cam?

That's Uber style.

You would like it.

Modern Ocean's 11 is up there.

It's one of my favorite movies.

I should go back and check that one out.

Definitely taking inspiration from the Rat Pack,

although I do like the Sotterberg one more.

I mean, that movie is also a style icon.

It's great.

Music, I wasn't going to cover any,

but you said we should.

I didn't know a lot of the big hits.

Well, again, I think it's kind of in this trough

between like you think of 50s songs

and then you think of 60s songs

and these ones are kind of a funky blend of that, right?

And I don't know if there's some semi-blockbusters,

but there's not ones that are so far out in front of me.

Roy Orbison, right?

Yes.

Only The Lonely or which one was?

The Lonely.

The Lonely is like, I mean, that's a mega song.

That was 1960.

That's cool.

What else was on the list?

I've listed these top ones and I'd never heard of them.

I'm ashamed to say, but you knew them all.

A theme from a summer place by Percy Faith was another one.

But I know Percy Faith for sure.

But yeah, keep going.

Just right.

Everly Brothers, Kathy's Clown.

He'll have to go by Jim Reeves.

The first one that I knew that was big

was It's Now or Never Elvis Presley,

which is a great all-timer.

I wouldn't mind listening to that

in a couple of the cars I have on my list.

I would be pretty good.

You mentioned a couple, Cam.

El Paso, Marty Robbins.

I mean, truly a classic

that I maybe just didn't get appreciated in its day.

I'm kind of akin to some of the cars that we'll be selecting.

You have some great artists appearing in the late 50s, 1960,

one of mine being Ray Charles.

But akin to the cars, I maybe would have taken the model

that came two or three years after the 1960 album.

But yeah, leading into modern sounds

of country and western music from him.

A lot of great stuff.

But again, similar to the cars of the era,

a bit of a harkening for the music

that was happening in the mid to late 50s.

People still trying to hang on to that.

And then you get some people coming in with some new ideas

and bringing some fresh sounds into things.

No British invasion yet, though.

Not really in cars either.

We'll get to that in a minute.

Formula One, a little bit of British invasion.

Do you look at the Formula One season ready?

I wait for you for all this stuff.

So I'm hearing about this real time.

Jack Brabham was the champion in a Cooper,

the early mid-engine Cooper, a T53.

But there were still front-engine cars in 1960.

So it was mixed-correct.

Including Ferrari was still front-engine.

And then they rushed a mid-engine halfway through the season

to try to compete.

Last year, the 2.5-liter formula,

they go down to 1.5-liter in 61.

Kind of end of the era there.

All the big drivers.

But the thing that was the most exciting for me

was Le Mans in 1960.

We always talk about Le Mans.

This is as sick as it gets.

So Ferrari 250 Testarosa's with the closed bodywork,

not the open bodywork, kind of the revised TR.

One overall, they were first and second.

Paul Freer, who grew up reading in Road and Track.

He's the guy who drove the Yellowbird 211 miles an hour.

He was the winner with the Oliver Jean de Bien.

They were in the front car.

But when you go further back into the ranks,

it's Lotus Elites.

It's Ricardo Rodriguez, 19 years old.

I think he was fourth place in a short wheelbase 250,

right at the beginning of 250 short wheelbases.

There's Porsche RSKs.

There's Cunningham C1 Corvettes.

This is our whole list to pick here already.

It's 250 short wheelbases,

Birdcage Maserati's, Abarth Carreras.

What a great grid.

This year, it was fantastic.

That's amazing.

I'm ready.

That's my top five.

I think you just picked my cars for me.

Daily driver.

There it is.

Abarth, Porsche, as your family hauler.

Totally.

Finally, daily driver or something.

Birdcage, Camarati Birdcage.

Totally.

They all broke, I think, interestingly.

All the birdcages broke.

And that's what let the Ferraris get in front.

But they were really fast.

And you're exactly right.

It was the Camarati cars that were so fast.

Anyway, that was really exciting.

I love reading about that.

I got really sucked down the 1960 Le Mans Wikipedia page.

Here's a little sidebar.

You know Camarati on the side of a number of race cars?

They ran, I think, Abarth bubble roof cars.

They ran, obviously, the birdcages.

That's an acronym of an American racing team.

Racing Division is RA-D.

Somebody, somebody RA-D.

I looked it up.

And Motor Racing Division.

It's somebody Motor Racing Division.

It sounds like it's like an Italian exotic name.

And it's some team from wherever in Torino or whatever.

And I always thought it was super exotic.

But it's like some American East Coast dude.

And that's the team.

So anyway, we got to find out what the CO says.

I know.

And I would love to know if there is intention behind it.

Let's pick something that maybe sounds a bit exotic.

And we know what we're doing.

Dude, it's Lucky Kassner's racing thing.

So it's Kassner Motor Racing Division.

I never knew this.

There you go.

And I read that very recently.

I forget where, where did I read it?

But I read that and I was like, holy smokes.

That's like, because where is that Kass Kassner?

No, that's a different family.

Lucky Kassner.

Lucky Kassner is just a name I knew from racing.

But like I never knew that Kamarotti was his team,

like an acronym for his team.

Anyway, I thought that was notable.

And whenever you touch on, we're never going to talk about that name again.

I got to grab it now.

If you're talking about Kamarotti, no, I had to drop that.

Did you read that in that book that Tyler brought through the office?

You know what it might have been.

Yeah.

He brought a racing program from the Pebble Beach Road races.

And I was looking at that.

It may have been in there.

It may have been in that hot rod history.

I've been reading both those sort of intertwined.

I forget which one it was.

But anyway, that's where that came from.

I'll forever think of that when I see the bird cage.

Another cool thing about this era that that makes me think of is like

hot rodding and the American stuff you and I like.

Randy is still kind of intermixed with European racing.

Like Briggs Cunningham is taking C1 Corvettes over to Europe to race.

And I believe at this stage, the Indy 500 was still part of the Formula One season.

And so you'd come over and race the Indy 500.

And a lot of the great drivers couldn't qualify at the Brickyard.

Famously, I think Fangio, he's like the champion,

but he couldn't qualify for that race because all the USAC and Circle Track guys

would come out and beat the European champion level guys.

But I love that.

I wish there was more of that today.

Once in a while, you get a mix of some crazy European will try the Indy

or other way around, you know, not much Formula One experimentation.

But some of that is cool.

It was super mixed up back then.

So anyway, 60 is an interesting year.

Car, car industry, geopolitical, Americana, all the stuff.

One other interesting car related thing happening around this time

is the Federal Aid Highway Act passed in 56.

So by 60, interstate highways were under full construction,

which I'm sure influenced a lot of the design.

Was it not before that?

Was it not like 50s?

Or did it take till 60s until they actually got it over the goal line?

So you'll know more than I will if you read about it.

But I was watching Band of Brothers with my son last night,

and they show a really cool scene with all the German troops

marching out of Germany down the middle of the Autobahn

and all the Americans and British tanks rolling in.

And famously, Eisenhower saw that.

We were able to move our army around on the Autobahns.

And he's like, God, we need this in America.

We need like an interconnected series of big highways

in case we need to move the army around the interior of the United States.

And that's what he used as justification to ram this through federally.

Right? That was an era when states paid for things.

So federally funding this big thing was a huge deal.

Yeah, one of the biggest construction projects probably in human history.

Certainly.

But yeah, I'm sure that led to car companies being like,

all right, people can travel places.

Let's make things comfortable.

Let's get families places.

But just that interesting timeline thing I wanted to point out.

But we're still really before a huge...

And yet I still want a bug I spray on your brand new highway.

That's on my list.

But it's still before a large invasion of European cars.

This is still like, there's not a ton of options in 1960 for imports.

For Japanese cars, basically.

Japanese, they made cars, but it'd be interesting to look at Toyota history

and Toyo Pet and all the weird stuff and if it had actually landed.

If they were actually selling a retail Japanese car,

I think they did starting in like 58.

I've got one on my list that I believe was sold here.

Okay, cool.

I don't know if I'll get to it or not.

All right, you guys, anything else to say about the year?

Should we dive into the picks?

Let's go.

People want to hear about cars.

They love our political commentary, but they actually want to hear...

A little more about the space race?

Yeah.

You know, the Artemis spaceship blasted off today.

We've got an aviation corner.

Yeah, first humans leaving Earth orbit in 60 years is happening today.

This was the year that we shot the chimpanzee into space.

61 was the first time an American went into space,

but 60 is first animal.

American animal, yeah.

Ham, the chimpanzee.

Okay, so quick reminder for folks listening

on how we play the one-year garage game.

We are each going to pick five cars.

So 15 cars in total will be picked from five separate categories.

We'll go around and there's no overlap, so order matters here.

And I have not done anything to pick order yet,

but we will determine that in just a minute.

The five categories that each of us will be picking from are sports car,

daily driver, truck 4x4, family hauler, and wild card.

I'm going to write some names here.

C for Cam, E for Alex, R for Randy, and Cam's going to pick.

The order, which matters.

Dun dun dun.

All right, dun dun dun.

Ooh, Alex first.

Alex P. Love that one.

Cam second.

Randy goes last.

Perfect.

Sorry, dude.

Actually, I think-

Add and clean up.

Let's do it.

I think it's not going to matter.

I don't think there's going to be a tremendous amount of overlap,

but it'll be interesting.

There are a few very obvious picks, I think,

that maybe we would have friction over.

I like going third.

I'm still doing my-

Randy's researching.

I really tried.

I feel like in the past, I have ventured outside of vehicles

that we've listed on the site,

so I really tried to stick to specific cars

that we have had on the site this time.

Oh, do you have lot numbers?

Yep.

Okay, I do too.

I have the most specific lot numbers that I want for this

than any other year we've ever picked.

So there's a lot.

And I'm going to start with sports car and pick one of those.

And this is one of the cars-

Randy's going to remember this one.

This is one of the cars that I wanted the most.

So for sports car, I'm going to pick 356B,

and this is the Condor Yellow GT Tank Speedster Stripe Car

that our buddy Trevor Kroff listed forever ago.

Oh, that one.

Do you remember this car?

I love this car.

Yes, Speedster Side Spears, and it's that yellow color.

And it's-

Okay, so we've listed a number in this yellow color.

I have another one.

Were you looking at the Super?

I'm looking at the GT.

Oh, the GT.

We've had a couple GTs of those,

and we had a very early BAT GT clone.

But that car I also remember.

So I loved this one.

It had a big tank or a wheel interior.

Yeah, it has the 80-liter tank and the Speedster Stripes.

But the thing I loved about it, and back wrote this listing up,

is this first owner picked it up in Europe, drove it everywhere.

We'll link to this.

It's lot number 12,777, way back in 2015.

The auctions ago.

Yeah, 2018.

No, 2018.

This is lot 12,000.

Yeah, but now we're-

Oh gosh, that's tiny.

Yes, early.

I was thinking about 24,000.

We're at 240,000.

24,000.

Okay, that's number 12,000.

That's not halfway cam.

This was owned for many years by the head landscape architect of Caltrans,

and the little lookout right to the north of the Golden Gate Bridge

is named after this guy.

Wow.

And there's all kinds of cool picks, and all of his badges are on the dash

that events he took it to.

Wow.

So the history on this car.

I've even asked Robbie and Trevor a couple times what happened to this car.

I've always loved it.

Love the color.

I love a 356B in general.

But this car, yellow California plates, just a great car.

You do remember that one, Randy?

Absolutely, because you and I talk about it every couple years we check in

and reminisce on that car.

And that's a cool one.

And I used to be an anti-356B snob.

I was like, speedsters in A. Speedsters in A is do whatever you have to do.

And I have warmed to Bs and B roadsters.

And some of those were on my list here, but I think you're-

We can't go for just a different version.

I can't steal just a different version of the B.

You grabbed 356B, which is a winning offering of 1960, if you ask me.

And how much larger was the GT tank compared to the stock?

Do you know?

80 versus 50?

Yeah, maybe 50.

80 versus something?

Okay, substantial.

80 liter is the size of a 911 tank.

That's like what's in the 912.

It's pretty big.

Okay.

For a 1600 four-cylinder, that's a lot of gas.

Yeah, yeah.

There was an optional 100 liter for 911s,

which takes up a pretty big chunk of the trunk.

I'm finding good stuff from 60, by the way.

Of course you are.

Back as far as 2023, and I'm finding some goodness.

There's lots of goodness.

So you can have 356B.

I was sad at first, but now I'm good with it.

No, there's some big cars that get left on the table here.

And I debated taking the car that I bet Cam is going to take right now.

So Cam, go ahead.

I don't know, man.

All right.

For my sports car pick, it was a tough one,

but I ended up going with is lot number 117962.

And it is a 1960 Abarth 750 Cestriere by Zagato.

And actually I worked on this car when it came in.

If I was really choosing the one I'd want,

we had a 58 that had the true double bubble on it.

A fantastic looking car.

But just Zagato built, aluminum body.

And I think what really stands out to me with this car

is just looking at the 600 that this car was based off of.

Like this really screams like a master class in constraint

and kind of leading to the engineering and design of a race car.

Where you basically had this super consumer based 600

that was the platform for this car.

But the twin intakes on the back, the little vent scoops on the sail vents.

Like just all the little design touches on this car really do it for me.

The alloys on those are unusual, right?

So many cars came with steel and that came with those cool alloy.

Yeah, really, I don't have too much insight on these vehicles.

I just think it's a cool piece of racing history, a cool point in history for Zagato.

I feel like this kind of proved that he could or they could as a company

design more race oriented bodies for chassis.

You get Abarth and Zagato too, which I love these cars too,

particularly the double bubble ones, which are earlier, right?

The body's changed by 60, but I've heard it pointed out a couple of times.

Not that these are cheap, but it's the cheapest way to getting both of those names,

like into your garage, Zagato and Abarth.

And it's like a coach built alloy body and they're racy.

There's racing versions, street versions.

I love these cars.

They are tiny.

Have you been up close to one?

They are tiny.

Yep.

And for me, it was kind of between this or I'll actually, I won't say.

No, no, no, no.

There's enough variety that you may still be able to get some of the other things.

You did not go in the direction I thought you were going, although that is a great pick.

I do love that this thing was out there competing with 356s and kind of crushing them though,

back in the day.

With 750cc or 850cc instead of the Porsches had 1.5s or 1.6s, right?

I mean, it was, that's interesting to see.

It's super light.

Crushing, I don't know.

You're going to upset the Porsche freaks.

I don't know if they were crushing the Porsches, but they were doing something.

You know, there were twin cam alpha motors out in the same gear.

So, but they were in a different class.

Is that where we're headed next, Randy?

That was in a different class.

So, no, I'm going to curveball you.

I'm going to curveball you.

Oh, is that a sports car?

Is it not?

I would argue sports and daily have a lot of overlap here.

And I had to grab the 356 before somebody else did.

If I didn't think that was in danger, I probably would have picked that as my daily,

but I knew I had to get 356 in quick on this one.

Okay, so I'm going to defer to you guys on whether this is a sports car or not,

because I want it and you guys are maybe going to grab it for another category,

but 60 for me, my mind went straight to DB4.

Oh, no, no, I think that's a sports car.

But these days, it's kind of smaller.

And I am a, you know, super opinionated on the Cathedral tail lights, the vertical tails.

I have that exact car up.

This is going to be my daily.

Oh, sorry, dude.

All good.

53, 435.

We've only just did one 1960 model.

We have a lot of 58, 9, 61, whatever.

This one is silver.

I wouldn't do a silver one just because of the bond association.

How far into the series is this?

This is like a series three.

I get confused on all of them.

This is a fairly early car, series two car.

And I'm all about series one and series two, because the round tail lights in the DB5,

the stacked tail lights, like I don't think are as elegant.

And these cars are cool.

I mean, they, you know, they drive like a, like a British car for better or worse.

And they're a little bigger to be sporting.

If I was chasing you and you're a rear-engined Zagato car, it may be a little bit of a challenge.

But yeah, I thought about Alphas, thought about other stuff.

There's a lot of actually good stuff for sporting category.

Where some of the other categories are a little more tricky.

But this is just, this is actually a bucket list car for me.

Don't want a DB5, want a DB4.

A dream is DB4 GT.

Yeah, that's the sports car.

DB4, is that 1960?

I think there were 60s.

What am I doing?

But we haven't listed.

We haven't listed one.

So DB4 GT is the ultimate, ultimate for me.

You saw the kind of ratty series four we just had on the site, which I was following and they loved.

Those are cool.

There was 61.

And then I'd get to the, I instantly go to the gallery and look at the rear of the car.

And I'm like, no, I can't do it.

I just have weird guardrails like that.

So anyway, yeah.

Ask DB4 always way up on my list.

Have never owned one.

Got to drive one of a somewhat, you know, famous, awesome BAT user, Don Rose.

Shout out to Don Rose.

He was big in the Aston Martin Club and Ray Stumm and stuff.

And my buddy and I were out East and rung him up once and he showed up in a DB4 and

let me drive it in flip flops, which was terrifying.

The only time I've ever driven an Aston in my life.

You guys ever been in an Aston or something driven one?

A late, late model.

Later, later cars.

I've never been in a V8 or a Vantage or anything, the new cool stuff.

But I got to sit and drive around a little country lane in a circle in a real DB4.

And I was like, mountain top moment.

This had to be 2013.

Dude, you always reveal something cool like that.

DB4s are like way over DB5 for me personally.

I like the earlier DB3s and even two fours also, but the four is the ultimate.

I always imagine it being kind of a big, torquey six cylinder.

Is that what it felt like?

Absolutely.

It's like being a sportier Jag.

You know, it's like a big, big car, but elegant and I don't know.

You're scared when you're me and you get in it and it's somebody else's car and stuff.

You're just going to say daily.

I mean, can you imagine actually driving one of those would be killer?

Absolutely killer.

All the dials and all.

I mean, you don't have to explain it to folks.

It's kind of an icon.

But getting to be in the actual presence of them is really cool.

We need one around here, I think.

But truly the enclosed lights of the DB4 GT really make that car.

Like that is the DB4.

Well, and it gets stubbier proportion.

We had it sits a little higher because it's more bulbous and it always has big tires on it.

That car has some really weird details though, right?

Like there's no trunk because there's this huge spare in the trunk

and then engines are a little more temperamental.

I really like the GT too.

Yeah.

I mean, those used to show up at the Monterey Historics and run all the time.

I don't think there were any there last year,

but there used to be two or three in that class against the Ferraris and stuff.

There were some great ones local to Bay Area as well,

but all from across the country.

I love those cars.

Beautiful cars.

Then you get into the DB4 GT Zagados, which are even.

Oh, I'm actually, yeah, unpopular opinion.

I actually would rather have a normal DB4 GT than a Zagato.

And people think I'm a Neanderthal because I say that,

but that's my story.

I'm sticking to it.

Here's the contrarian.

Well, I love the window line on these.

That's my favorite thing is like the roof line and window line,

and it's different on the Zagato.

That's what I love about the DB4,

which an Eve is a little thinner and more elegant than a DB5.

It's like a little bit lower profile.

Anyway, love those cars.

Great picks.

Sports.

In the books.

There's a car that I can't believe nobody took there,

which I guess I'm just going to do for my daily driver

because I kind of want to have it.

I maybe should have done that for daily.

Anyway, what's that going to be?

That's going to be a Mercedes 300 SL roadster.

I'm closing tabs as you guys peel them off

because I'm not allowed to have them.

I'm obviously a Gullwing guy,

but I have really, particularly during the time,

I mean, come on, so good.

And with a hard top in particular,

they're just about as good looking as a Gullwing.

You don't get the cool Gullwing door.

I used to be like, didn't care about roadsters at all,

but working at BAT has really changed my tune,

particularly seeing some of the ones we've listed.

We've listed a lot of red ones, which is interesting.

I don't know if I would have one of them in red.

White and red is kind of the colors we've listed.

I don't know what color I would have.

I think one in black would be great.

And I would also be interested in contrasting hard top.

I'm interested in contrasting hard top and hub caps to match.

Yes, correct.

That's the setup is really neat looking.

Red would not be my color, but we listed a great red with a black hard top.

Yes, I like that car a lot.

And I think I had red wheels too, didn't it?

Yes.

I love these cars.

Gullwing is probably my favorite car of all time.

It's right up there.

That and Toyota 2000 GT.

So 300 SL roadster, which is not...

It's weird that they call them roadsters

because it's not quite a roadster really.

It's more like a convertible.

But anyways, I really, really, really like those cars.

And I think we could daily one of those.

I don't think it would be too bad.

Well, here's a question.

Is that a sports car?

Or is that kind of in the DB4 category where it's a little bit of a toss up?

It is kind of a sports car.

You could pick that as a sports car.

Yeah.

Yeah, we've seen them driven fast, right?

Of course.

And I've spent some miles driving around with people driving those.

It's sporty.

That's what the S stands for.

It stands for sport.

Sport life.

So we can say that the marketing worked, right?

I mean, it's a tube frame car.

I think it's pretty sporty.

We'll give it that.

Great.

We're sitting over here deciding.

I know.

As my dad always says, the roadster is the better car.

They've updated the suspension.

They've got disc brakes.

They did evolve the formula a little bit.

I'm still a goal guy, but no goal in 1960.

So here we go.

I thought for sure one of you guys was going to take 300 SL.

I thought about it.

I mean, it's in the tabs.

I've fired open like 12 tabs and I want all of them.

So now I just am trying to feed them into the categories.

Yeah.

So that's why.

You're totally right that this is it's heavy on sports and it's going to get a

little trickier in truck and family hauler.

So yeah.

So daily driver allows you your second sports car.

So where are you going to take it?

Exactly.

And that's what I'm doing.

Randy took my daily driver with the DB4.

So I'm going to pivot over to a 1960.

This is very similar to the Fiat.

But 1960, Giulietta Sprint Zagato.

And this is lot number 177294.

And this is actually a TardaFlorio class winning example.

Yeah.

This is a great car.

That's a great car.

It's a really good car.

I would absolutely love to daily drive this thing around.

That's the one that's like a.

It's like a lozenge.

It's like round.

It's like an oval, funny little car.

The front and back chopped off of a Giulietta, right?

It's just like.

The Coda Trunca as they called it.

But again, another car that the body was designed by the engineering team before any

designers actually got to touch it.

So it has a really funky chopped off look to it.

But all of it is completely functional and performance oriented.

And I mean, 1290 double overhead cam and these cars are pretty classic.

I don't think you can really go wrong.

Scroll down.

Does that one have some race images or any motorsport images to be cool?

And it did.

Yes, it does.

Yeah.

I always think those should be the lead photo, but they end up kind of buried.

You got to dig.

Well, a lot of times the car is totally different than what it was.

It is.

I agree.

But I mean, but I mean, that's what I want the wall of my home to just be muraled out with.

Is that you want to be crossing the finish line at the TardaFlorio in 1960?

That's where I wanted to be standing.

I was not dealt that card, but that car is super cool.

It's great.

And arguably probably a better sports car than my sports car,

but I don't think I'm going to complain if they're all sitting in my garage.

They both have those crazy spindly buttress seats.

Those are in both the Kota Troncos and in the Zagato A-bars.

They both have those like crazy little thin.

They almost look like an airplane seat or something.

Little tiny lightweight thing with two buttresses holding them together.

I love that.

Some paper with some wooden sticks.

100 percent.

Yes, right.

The minimal amount of cushion weight.

Great pack.

That's a good car.

And that specific one is superb.

That's fantastic.

I have a hard time.

I don't know if you have this clear.

Maybe you do, Randy.

There's all kinds of different weird,

we're vamping for Randy a little bit while he furiously searches for his dick.

Come to me.

Come to me whenever you want.

No, this is a real question that I have though,

which is when you look those up, there's like a million.

They change those bodies a lot as they were evolving that car.

They're like different every year.

It's a little bit like the Ferraris,

like the Testros.

Almost every one is different than the one before it,

which is both super confusing,

but also kind of rad like each car is its own deal.

Yeah, super confusing if you work on the curation team,

but leads to some really awesome cars.

And I feel like 1960, 61, 62 is kind of the end of the big coach built era

of you having these companies that can remain in the green,

just making bodies for these other consumer vehicle manufacturers.

And I feel like that really drops off once you get into 63, 62.

Hell yes, brother.

Some Italian dude just ripping sigs with a hammer pounding on aluminum.

So rad.

That was adjacent to the dark floria finish line.

He was like half a block over.

He was just out of frame.

You picked it up from your shop one day before the race.

He's like, you see that little house over in the corner of the photo?

Like he's in that house.

He was through half a bottle of wine,

Hannah beating, smoking sigs, plaid shirt suspenders.

Correct.

Yeah, he's going.

He's doing it.

Wicked stash.

That's what I want to be.

Yeah, totally same.

All right, Randy, daily driver, second sports car.

Actually, I'm going super different directions because it should probably be family car,

but I'm going to go.

Do you remember this when it was listed on BAT?

This 1960 Chevrolet.

We talked about this.

So I'm feeding you a question.

You should say yes to this because...

How did I miss that?

The 60-Bell Air Sport Coupe 348 four-speed on steels in factory like Sky Blue with blue interior,

and it's got a four on the floor and not a car I would think of.

So is that technically still bubble top or was 59 bubble tops?

I don't know, but it's got that windshield that kind of wraps up up to the top roof line,

which I associate with that term, but there are other experts out there that can talk about it.

It becomes the 390 big block, or it's like a medium block, whatever it is, right?

90 was a Ford, or maybe that was...

Or sorry, not a 3.

Sorry, it becomes the 396, right?

396.

It's like a 3.

What is the cubic inch on it?

This is a 348.

348.

Solid lifter, four-barrel, four-speed, 14-inch steel wheels.

So this car a lot.

People should genuinely just go look at this car because the presentation was cool.

It's in Ozark, Missouri, which is like the town version of this car, right?

It's just like perfect middle of the country, awesome, not that far from where it originated

in Motor City.

Lot 168872.

And my dad always described these like the 5960, 61 Chevrolet sort of evolution.

The fins were smooth on the early cars, and then the fins got a notch in them.

This is like the notched fin with the round taillights.

And it's a bell there, so it's sort of high trim, but this is like a performance big Chevy.

It's like the precursor to the 409, effectively, in my mind.

It's just one that came across BAT.

You get these every once in a while.

You guys may feel the same.

Where it's not a car, a model you were looking for, you've thought about,

you've thought about in years or whatever, but it comes across and it just like smacks you.

And it's just like, that's the one.

Yes, right?

And you're like the guy presented it right.

It's got the right color.

I haven't seen one of those in 10 years.

Like this is incredible.

And I don't even want one of this model, but if I could daily that car, I'd be so pumped.

It's the specific car.

So this car hit...

I mean, I know we talked about this in the office.

That car hit me the same way.

I was like, I didn't know this existed.

I didn't know you could get fours on the floor in 1960s.

It's like proto muscle car.

And I'm now redoing the research I did back then that you're right.

The 348 is indeed what becomes the 409.

So it's a big block, but it's smaller than a 350, but it's the big block, right?

And yeah, it's like a proto performance car.

You would never wake up in the morning and be like, you know what I need is a 60 Chevy.

You'd never say that, or I wouldn't anyway.

But if you woke up every morning and walking out to drive, you're kidding.

If this was parked outside right now, I would be the most stoked.

I like 63 galaxies.

And I like obviously the 56 Chrysler and all these other big American cars.

But this one, I'd park with any of them.

Any of them.

100%.

So anyway, really like it.

People are going to be like, Randy is not that smart or is a weirdo.

But that's wrong.

That's my choice.

It's a really, really, really cool car.

And everything about this one specifically, the interior and the way the motor's finished,

it's all very period feeling too, right?

Like it's not modified in any way.

Color matched wheels, all that stuff.

Horizon blue.

And it's just the color is really nice.

Like the undersides are.

Yeah.

The car was done, right?

It was done.

But it also the spec that it started with is the important part.

And it's sold for 55 grand.

And it was a pleasure doing business.

It was.

Says the buyer and seller.

They're like all stoked.

Love fest.

Anyway, great BET story.

Great car.

Great, great.

Seed your pants pick, Randy.

That was, it was a pleasure doing business with that car.

That was a really, really good car.

Great pick.

All right.

I'm going to continue on that trend and pick another American car.

We're going family haulers next.

And this is another American car that I didn't know about till I was doing the research on this one.

Randy, I'll be curious if you know about these, you probably do.

This is a Ford Country Sedan, which is actually a wagon.

It's a wagon.

Country Sedan is a wagon.

It's like a galaxy wagon kind of.

And I never knew about until today.

We've never actually.

But 60 Ford is a little iffy, right?

Yeah.

Kind of similar to 60 Chev.

It's not like the most famous one.

So how does this look?

You got to turn this around and show it.

It looks great.

Okay.

It looks great.

We may arm wrestle over it.

Oh, I love it.

60 Ford is a weird car.

We've never listed.

We've never auctioned one.

But we have an old post on one which has a great name on the title,

which is Confusing Name, 1964 Country Sedan.

When was that written?

That's probably me being confused.

It's 2017.

It may have been me.

I think that that looks so cool.

You guys don't like it at all.

That's so fast.

Well, there's a lot of models they made, right?

It's just like this weirdo one that I picked.

It's like, are you going to zoom in on 60 because you're forsaking when you're a buyer,

like a 61 or 62 or 63 or a 58 or 59.

Picking 60 is a weird choice.

So you'd see it driving up the road and you'd be like,

you either really needed to buy a car that year or that's your jam.

You're into it.

And that's cool.

Our game is a little weird because we're forcing you to pick the 60.

Correct.

Even if the 61 is better.

Yeah.

Right?

Like, I can't do a 60 CAD because the 62 Caddy exists.

And the 59.

Yeah.

All these other ones.

But no, I see where you're going.

It's a cool one.

It's like a galaxy wag.

And it's very similar.

The galaxies aren't even that great this year,

but it reminds me a lot of your pick in that it's a car I didn't really know about.

And it's got some performance to it.

So this has got 300 horsepower.

Pretty cool motor.

Interesting styling.

Yeah.

Maybe not pretty, but I think it's awesome.

I mean, the rear end and the fins are almost identical,

like a big long flat plane going back.

It's a very similar design.

I want an intercoise too.

I'm looking at one from Mika right now.

Yeah, you're on the Mika.

With the Latch body now.

To me, that's the same kind of thing.

If I was going to go hop in that after work today and pick up my kids,

I'd be stoked.

Yeah.

I'd be stoked.

With a teal interior, double teal.

Anyway, that's my pick.

I actually found this to be kind of the hardest.

Like what kind of sedan or I always want to pick a wagon.

I want an American wagon.

I'm shopping wags right now.

I like that choice.

Cam's up next.

All right.

For my family holler, I feel like I kind of went out there a little bit.

I'm going with a 60 Citroën DS19.

Oh, wow.

Oh, I'm looking at this picture.

Yellow.

Yep.

And there's a US market model.

This is lot number 38261.

Oh, man.

That's a good one.

That's cool.

Now what's the color?

Shout out to our gear store.

That looks like our shirt.

I was going to say, I thought you were just doing this as a thinly veiled

advertisement for our new merch.

We can also mention that we have an awesome shirt in the merch store for your DS19.

I saw one of those down in the office today.

They're really good looking.

But yeah, I just know all of the overarching talking points of these,

of the hydronomatic suspension, one huge pump that powered the steering,

the brakes, basically all of the hydraulics in it, auto-leveling suspension.

I don't know if you guys know the story of Charles de Gaulle's attempted assassination.

Oh, gosh.

He had a chaperone convertible, didn't he, version of these?

I don't know.

But during that assassination attempt he was his wife and I think his son-in-law,

we're all in a DS19 that took 14 shots to it and no one was injured.

Is that right?

Yep.

And two of the tires got shot out.

But because of the auto-leveling suspension, it could still ride on the road and get out of there.

And so I figured if it could protect Charles de Gaulle, it could probably protect my family.

De Gaulle.

Wow.

I love that.

Those are super, super cool.

Yeah.

I don't know if you or Randy can school me on that.

I've always struggled a little bit with ID, DS, 19s, 21s, 23s.

I think the number is the displacement.

So is that a 1.9 and then 21s or 2.1?

That is correct.

Okay.

And then all I know is that the DS is the top of the line trim and ID is the lower trim.

I also love that Citroen was making this, which was probably one of the, at the time,

most advanced chassis and body design.

And the fact that they're making this at the same time is the 2CV,

which is like just the most bare bones car I think you could ever buy.

Just a really, really interesting looking car.

Just an interesting tidbit that I found in some research.

When this debuted in 55 at the Paris Motor Show, apparently it was so out there that

five minutes after they debuted the car, they had like 750 orders.

And by the end of the show, they had 12,000, which never happened before.

That's awesome.

It's so sick.

I love them.

I've always loved them.

I'm a little scared to own one, but I really would like...

Well, working on one seems like a nightmare.

Totally.

But really just a cool piece of automotive history.

The seats, they're famous for incredible, incredible seats.

I've sat in one.

I don't think I ever need to own one, but I sat in one.

I'm trying to remember if I got to go for a ride in it or not.

No, I think I just sat in one static and the seats are good.

I've heard.

Really, really good.

And I don't know why the French pulled that off and nailed it and why everybody can't

just copy it and make it great, but you sit in that car and the owner no doubt will say,

what do you think about this?

I love that.

And then the seats are fantastic.

Well, and the steering wheel design is so quirky and the auto-centering steer,

it's just a lot of weird stuff.

That's single spoke steering wheel?

Yeah, single spoke.

Yeah.

It was like maybe 20 years ahead of its time outside of the engine,

but everything else was so interesting.

Awesome pick.

Keeping your family safe from assassination attempts.

Well done.

All right, Randy, you ready for a family hauler?

Okay, yeah.

I'm going to kind of contort the rules here to try to work for me.

I've got a 60 car that is a genuine lot number.

It is a 1960 Bentley S2 Moliner four door.

I prefer the four doors, not the two doors, the expensive stuff.

I prefer the like base spec.

This one had an LQ4 GM V8 swap.

Did you see that?

No.

This was actually not that long ago.

One of my favorite cars ever on BAT, ever, ever is not this one,

but the sister car that I believe is a 58, which was Alfred Hitchcock.

Oh, I love that car.

That's like one of the cars that I so wish I would have been able to buy,

because that car is just the story and the car and the spec and everything.

And this is slightly, slightly later as an S2, but it has the same vibe.

It has, I believe, the same tail lights as the Aston I picked earlier.

Very lovely.

Parts bin, yeah, parts bin stuff.

But this one needs to sit a little bit lower.

It's lot number 220551.

It was sold in Monterey, California.

The most terrifying part about these are the big Rolls V8 or Bentley V8 or whatever.

Straight ZX, big straight ZX.

Still a six.

Anyway, it's terrifying.

I don't even want to think about it and what it's like to keep one of those in good nick.

So I'm a weirdo and I actually like swaps and crazy things and having this thing with a reliable,

awesome, powerful drivetrain and looking this beautiful and rolling down the road is a left-hand

drive car, gray with red interior, wood everywhere.

Throw the fam in that.

Look at these little kick out windows.

I know, from the rear.

So did you see that?

That's so you can smoke or something.

So rad.

I don't know what that's for, but proportions on these cars are incredible.

Speaking of good seats, gigantic dash automatic on the column,

that is a cruiser, throw all five in and drive around.

Oh, yeah.

So I'm taking it.

I think the original mode, yeah, here's the original motor.

There's straight ZX.

Dude, you're giving me grief.

Look at, yeah, S1 is straight six.

But look at this.

Oh, is it a V8?

The removed Bentley engine.

There's one, two, three, four spark plugs per side.

Oh.

That is a V8 engine, ladies and gentlemen.

Wow.

So they must have changed it because the Alfred Hitchcock car is definitely a straight six.

Yeah.

By the time they got to S2, maybe they kicked a V8 and I thought that was right,

but I wasn't sure.

You stunned me and I backpedaled.

But it is a V8, which maybe made the swap all that much easier.

Must have the right dimension for it.

And to your point, the LQ4 must be a reliability upgrade

and a driving experience upgrade.

I would think so.

Certainly reliability and then power.

We've got to have so much more power than a 1960 Bentley V8,

but I am going to type Hitchcock into the site.

Nineteens.

Okay.

So 1960, that other one I was showing you is the Hitchcock.

The Hitchcock sold for $290.

Yeah, that costs so sick.

This one sold for $115, which is like the, it's the every man's.

Totally.

I think 60 was first year of V8.

Because I'm looking at a 59 still straight six,

and I'm looking at a different 60 S2.

And it's,

I like V8s as it turns out.

So I've chosen a few V8s so far.

That's their big honking V8 that I think they kept forever.

Yeah.

That was that big into a Corniche.

Yes.

Like 90, 80s or 90s, I think she has area out.

So anyway, weirdo choice.

I know I'm driving Aston's and Bentley's cam.

You're never going to talk to me again.

You're never going to talk to you.

I just never thought I'd see the day.

You're never going to speak with me.

I got an American car and I got two big old honking Brit cars.

In some ways, you guys have the opposite of what I would have.

You're German.

You're all German.

Well, that's awesome.

Well, no, I have my country sedan that you love so much Randy.

Country sedan, I think is fascinating.

The fact that they called it a country sedan.

It's so weird.

Because in my searching of the internet, you can type squire.

Yep.

Because then you get all kinds of country squires and cool stuff,

but you miss those.

So you got to back out your search and you just type Ford country.

And then you get all sorts of weird stuff because you get those as well.

But then you miss ranch wagons, which is another great.

They have so much good marketing.

You got to figure out how to search them all out.

But country sedan, I knew that from my weirdo search habits that that is a wagon indeed.

It's great stuff.

All right.

Truck four by four is where we're going next.

How many we got left?

Just that and wild card.

A wild card should be fun because there's so many good race cars from this year.

Although I've had to leave a lot of cars that I love on the side of the road.

So we'll have to do honorable mentions.

All right.

I'm going to continue the German theme.

I'm going to go for a type two single cab transporter.

I've always loved these.

You snake.

Oh, isn't this one?

Snake.

Dude.

Oh, all right.

All right.

I saw Glenn.

I didn't pick that.

Snake.

I have the tab open.

That was right there.

Let me go ahead and announce your lot number four year, which is 113983 San Dimas, California.

So for 54 grand in July of 23, take it, Alex.

This is one of my favorite looking buses we've ever had.

It's so good.

The color and long term family ownership.

I've always loved these.

I think Randy, you probably love them for the same reason, which was these were the support

vehicles for so many of the racing teams that I loved.

Sides folded down with spare Porsche, you know, death wish to drive it.

The front crumples.

Your knees are your knees.

Yes, correct.

Oh my gosh.

I drove a lot of these back in the day, but I like the older style type two with the

split windshield and everything is my favorite design.

I like the later ones too, but.

Everybody loves double cabs, but these actually the proportions on these are cooler.

They're cooler and they just look so good.

And I was the like livery guy for a while, but I actually liked that this one's not

Porsche, a Vasek Pollock livery or anything.

It's just a simple, great blue color.

I don't need anything hot rotted.

I don't, I don't need anything.

I'm happy with the little one and a half liter.

No HP.

Nothing.

30, 36.

What do they have for HP?

These are one five.

So yeah, they're probably 36, I bet.

Yeah, but I love the blue.

I feel like that was a very classic selection for Volkswagen's that area.

That blue over just a gray interior is so good.

It is.

I know it's like a little bit cheater, but this is like a very utilitarian vehicle.

Like it fits the utility part of truck.

Love these.

I can't believe I thought you were going to give me shame for this.

Oh, same one.

That was my choice.

Now I'm scrambling back into my silver and bronze.

And Randy is just peeking at your screen now.

You might want to look for something else.

Oh, no.

Oh, you've got a second choice, Cam.

You found it.

But I was going to say, if I was really sticking to my true love for the family hauler,

I was going to choose like a 23 window type two bus.

I had that on the list.

15 windows.

Were there multi windows by 60?

Or no.

There were definitely 15 windows.

I don't know if there were still 23s or not.

But still, I mean, they made me come later.

I believe 64, 5.

64, 5.

Those happen.

If I'm correct, I think 59 or 60 was the first year for 23 windows.

You could get big windows.

Yeah.

OK, cool.

The problem is a lot of them.

We've listed our conversion.

No, trust me.

It's from the factory.

Oh, yes.

I've seen that.

Sure it is.

Let me show you the certificate.

All of those weld seams that you're seeing there?

Oh, no, no, no.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

All right.

Great pick, Alex.

Oh, man.

Now here comes Cam to steal my lunch again.

My lunch money gets stolen twice in one round.

What are you doing?

I mean, I feel like this truck 4x4, there really are only a few clear options in my head.

So I went with a 6088 Series 2 Rover.

This specific lot number with a fantastic photo in here is 209352.

Great color.

That green with the slightly yellow off-white wheels is fantastic.

But yeah, just like the field for options for 4x4s in this time.

Like what?

You had Jeep, Land Rover.

This was what, first year of FJ40?

No, there were some early weird ones,

but 60 was really early for an FJ.

Nobody was buying FJs.

And yeah, I just think this is also an interesting, yes.

Man, great, great, great icon.

And look at the second photo.

Oh, dude, how did I miss that?

Yeah.

Did you see the history?

Aviation quarter, man.

That's for you, Alex.

That's for you.

Man, yeah, 1960 was also the, in just doing some research of the year,

I don't know if you guys came across, it was the year of Africa.

And it was the year that 17 countries gained independence.

It's growing off the shackles of colonialism.

Is that right?

Yes.

Huge number of independence.

Like an old Landy is appropriate for that.

Well, so Land Rover.

Celebrate it.

Sure, they wouldn't want to burn one with an effigy of the queen on it.

Yikes, maybe.

But yeah, I just feel like you started to have so many of these

that were over there for whether it was colonial infrastructure

that was happening by the British.

You had some of these, but only could be owned by the British colonizers

in the area.

And now in 1960, it opens up to these just being able to be sold to the general public.

And so I think that probably led to...

Are you saying they weren't sold to the general public in like 59?

In Africa, I'm saying.

Is that right?

I don't think so.

I don't know how that works.

It seems fascinating.

It's kind of a power play.

They ran, I know they kept them running there forever.

There was a famous story I read in some magazine where somebody saw the,

so like Jeeps, which are seen as so rugged,

wouldn't stand up the way these rovers would.

And like the rover parts are beefier.

And I remember an anecdote in some magazine about somebody pulled the head off

and they were doing a valve job with a rock,

just like like refinishing the valve.

They were going to throw it back on.

It was going to run.

That's cool.

Yeah.

And you know, these things were...

Maybe there probably still are.

It's like these in Mercedes diesel still go in various places in the world.

Meanwhile, Mr. Toyota is like stroking his beard,

watching all of this play out and being like,

I'm going to go ahead and have a few ideas on the matter.

Yeah.

Call me in 20 years.

Correct.

Yeah.

100-point build quality or whatever you're talking about.

Totally.

It was the chassis of these that had all the issues

because the bodies were aluminum, right?

And I think the chassis were steel.

It had chassis rust issues.

I mean, they have all sorts of issues.

Did you see the chassis?

They covered a lot of them.

This thing is so sick.

Yeah, the galvanized chassis is a big upgrade and a big swap.

We see that a lot in a lot of PET cars.

You got to look for chassis rust issues in those, in the unrestored ones.

But a nice restoration.

They, I mean, there's been so many of these and so many people have had hands on them.

Like everything is solved, right?

Every melody can be solved and there's parts all over the place.

But a really early, pure 1960 model just has something about it, doesn't it?

Yeah.

And I do feel like you could make this analogy to a lot of different cars,

but this one that really strikes for me is I really think of this era Land Rover as

kind of like the Rolex Submariner, where it's a thing in an item now that is

coveted by collectors and is kind of this luxury thing.

If you look at modern Defender 90s and Defender 110s, they're very expensive,

nice luxury SUVs.

And if you look at Rolex Submariners, they're luxury collector items now.

But back in the day, this thing was a tool and designed to be just beat up and taken

everywhere and torn down, fixed up.

And I just, I love that ethos about any sort of product that is designed with an intention,

not as a commodity.

And I think these are now obviously collector's items.

But I think a lot of those collectors still look at them through the lens of that.

Of course.

They are intended for.

It's built to be a tool.

Yeah.

Love that.

Great pick.

All right.

You guys are swiping wide swaths of the goodness of 1960 for truck.

I'm such an American truck guy, but I actually don't love many American trucks.

It was tough.

It's not a good model.

But I do love Willie's Stigianwagens.

How was the second pick for me?

So this is a great one, sort of a mustard yellow with white steels and really well done by

Adams Polishes.

Was the seller on this one out of Eagle, Idaho.

When was this?

2023.

So for 30 grand, just man.

Yeah.

Man.

All the rightness.

These things are also very rudimentary, especially from 60.

I like them with like a 283 Chevy swap in them.

Yeah.

Of course.

These come with a 134.

They've got the crappy F-head, right?

Hurricane 4 and M3 speed manual.

That'll get you to the general store and back, but I'm maybe looking for actually

toe in the little catamaran or something like this thing.

And then you've got the life you're living.

Hopy cat.

All those things.

What's the lot number on that?

So lot number is critical and it is 113859.

This thing has presence really well presented by the seller, obviously,

which helps it a whole bunch.

That's some cool features that, yeah, that little engine's not one of my favorites,

but yeah, for 30K, if you look at the underside of this, it's all restored.

Like that was a buy and I would very gladly have this parked outside today

and you go hop in it and drive out of here.

Man, absolutely good looking.

So, man, those are, talk about three picks.

I don't know how truck crazy you guys are about that category,

but of all the things we've talked about, those three actual lot numbers we just said

are like three huge winners.

Like everybody's thumbs up on all three of those, which is really kind of cool to see.

Totally.

And thanks for leaving this for me.

I thought when you said, watch out, I'm stealing it.

I thought you were taking this.

No, no, no, no.

I'm actually cool.

I was looking at this one though for a long time.

It's a solid, solid pick.

It's extremely good looking.

Yep.

Love it.

Is this overhead valve or is this still?

Hurricane.

They made a little Hurricane 4.

I don't know.

This is what was in all the little Willy's CJ.

If it was in the, yeah, okay.

I don't know if that's overhead valve or if it's still flathead, F-head,

but that's what's in my dad's 37 Willy's Coupe is the engine that was in all the World War II jeeps,

right?

It's the little, you know, 100, I think it's the same motor.

No, it's the little 4.

It's the little 4.

That's what was in the, in the cars.

Is it Daulis?

Was that one?

The Daulis is a V6.

Okay.

Yeah.

Daulis is a 6.

Yep.

No, this is the little 4.

It was in all the Army Jeeps.

Yeah, this has a high valve cover on it.

Yeah, that's an overhead valve.

But it might be the conversion of the same engine that had flathead on it.

Uh, could be.

Yeah.

Awesome pick.

Great one.

Wild card.

Okay, so I have a lot of choices here.

Here's a question for you.

I'm not going to pick this and one of you guys can if you want,

but does the Abarth Carrera count as a 356?

Or is that different enough that that's different?

You're going to pick a 356B and an Abarth.

No, I'm going to pick something different,

but I am curious about your ruling on that.

I would allow that.

Okay.

I mean, it plays your cards that you're like super deep Porsche world,

but it's the Revs Institute card.

I'm like, okay, we're going to go down to far a few for me.

I love that.

That's not what I'm picking.

Oh my gosh.

You kidding me?

So that's an alloy body to competition spec 250 short wheelbase that

won some pretty big things.

It was seventh overall at Le Mans in 1960.

Amazing car.

I love short wheelbases.

I didn't used to like them.

I used to be kind of GTO over short wheelbase,

and now I'm full short wheelbase train.

Watching them at,

because they have that Goodwood class that's just 250s,

and it's mainly short wheelbases,

and then a couple of GTOs and usually one or two LMs.

That guy spun the LM and hit it a couple of years ago.

I freaking love these cars.

Randy and I had the privilege of going to Bruce Myers place

and seeing he's got a very early silver car

that was maybe Tour de France winner or something.

That silver car, he's got that one.

That was a Le Mans too.

Okay.

This is a Le Mans too.

It's class, I think, right?

Yeah.

60 is either the first year or very close.

They may be late 59,

but this is I freaking love these cars.

And this specific one,

which sold for $13 million 10 years ago,

is an incredible car.

Wow.

I love the livery on it.

I know.

It looks really, really cool.

That's a very sound choice.

It shouldn't even be wildcard.

I mean, that could be for,

I mean, sports car.

What did you pick for sports car?

I mean, this is like-

You picked a lowly 356.

I know.

And then for wildcard, you just went bananas.

But that's because that's a specific car I wanted,

and I knew somebody would take 356.

That was a little bit of a strategy,

taking the 356.

But this is also like-

Don't pick the GTL then.

You need to pick that.

Yeah, I am picking this.

And this allows me to lean in.

And this like,

because I would actually probably,

not that I have $13 million,

but I would want a street,

a short wheelbase.

But this,

since I already have my 356 and daily drive,

this allows me to take full alloy-bodied comp car.

I think a lot of them were right-hand drive.

I believe this one is left-hand drive.

But anyway, chassis number 1759 GT.

No, it's sold on BET.

We have yet to have a 250 short wheelbase, legit.

We've had a re-body 250 short wheelbase.

That's not a real car.

Correct.

But built on a real chassis.

And maybe someday,

maybe someday,

somebody wants to pay our fees instead of millions in fees.

Yeah, there were a few fees.

Yes, there were a few feesies.

Few fees on this car.

At the big auctions.

So you can,

you can sell that car all day.

It'll be $1 million.

You wish it was only a billion dollars to have any fun.

You can sell that car all day along on BET for 99 bucks.

99 bucks.

That's right.

Anyway,

GTO engineering restored that one.

It's just great.

Great car.

Great livery.

Great pick.

I feel like my wildcards

may be going to be a bit moreing

compared to your guys' wildcard.

But if I was going to go out tomorrow

and find the 1960 model year vehicle

that I could, you know,

reasonably purchase in my current state,

that is what I wanted to select for my wildcard.

So I went with a 1960 Mercedes-Benz 220 SE four speed.

So fintail first here, the fin.

And ideally,

I don't know if you could get a floor shift at this time.

Oh yeah.

Well, you could certainly get a manual.

You should get a column shift.

This is a column shift.

I don't know if you could special order a floor shift,

but they were racing column shift in a day.

Yeah, it was awesome.

So awesome.

This car is also, to my...

This is the one the owner appeared correct built,

and then it looks...

Oh, this is...

Here, show them.

You know the car with the jumball on the door.

I didn't know that the owner...

Oh yeah.

Oh, that car was great.

Yeah.

Yes.

Yeah.

What's the lot number on that, Kim?

Lot number on this is lot 78555.

If we could go a bit later,

I would have chosen Randy's was a 67.

To my it's a 67.

Because I don't think it's 230s came out until 65.

230s was not an advantage.

They were desperate at the end of the run.

They were just trying to get that thing over the goal line

to get to the next cars.

But this is right out of the gates.

I mean, a 60 fintail,

that was pretty cutting edge design at that moment.

And they were kind of late on tail fins,

but they integrated them in to some controversy.

But the rally cars of that were really inspiring.

Well, and that's what I read a little bit into kind of the design,

eat those behind this,

and how there was like a big argument at Mercedes of,

some people wanted the big flares and big fins,

and you know, compete with the American stuff.

And some people were like no fins at all.

And so the designer was like, okay,

we're going to do a nice easy,

like digestible, a very moderate fin.

Just a fantastic car.

I could probably go out and find one of these if I wanted to.

And I'm one on.

I've been looking for you ever since you said you wanted one.

There's a white one local.

Have you seen it now?

It's Craig's or it's on someplace sketchy.

But they still want like 17 five for it.

And it's not that good.

And you're just like, man.

Is it four things?

It's a manual, but I think it's column.

Oh, see, four shift is kind of a deal breaker for me.

You must have.

I actually think column is super cool.

I get a Bronco.

Like if I get an early Bronco,

I kind of want to call them shift three speed.

Well, that I could do.

I just feel like you don't get the full sport driving experience.

Sporting.

Yeah.

The crazy part is they race that stuff.

But yeah, it's different now.

I get it.

Yeah.

If four shift is cool too, that bike or add.

Yeah.

That's really cool.

Well, that's like two 30 with four shift would be my ideal.

But in your opinion, is fuel injected or carbureted better on these?

Carbureted, you can modify a little easier as like a home mechanic.

Getting into modifying for power, Ben's early fuel injection is like,

I think that's beyond my pay grade.

I don't know.

I'm scared of that.

But my dad has injection on his coupe, you know,

but I had dual carbs on mine.

I threw two weathers on it and tried to get more go out of it.

There's different ways to do it.

It's kind of how skilled you are.

And what kind of tune it's in.

But a bunch of the early Ben's has had injection, as you know.

And it was great.

You know, it's just if you're trying to get more out of it,

that's where my brain went.

And I had more confidence in myself being able to milk some extra HP out of carbs

than I did out of fuel injection.

And just diagnosing on the side of the road.

It's got much more of a shot at figuring out what's going on.

Actuators and different stuff that's weird in the fuel injection system.

Whereas Carved, you hope with a Weber, somebody around you is going to have

the parts needed to hit it with a hammer and get it going.

So anyway, that was some of my logic.

But they're both very cool.

I mean, obviously, all the SLs are all fuel injected and are amazing.

I mean, that's why I like the MFI.

It looks like an SL.

And I did log.

Yeah.

In this body, I want a 300 SE.

Like I'd love to have the big boy one that has the SL motor in it.

And that's injected.

And I would love it.

But that's a great choice, dude.

It is.

And you want full rally spec like this.

This is a wobb presentation.

It's so good.

Two tone and the harnesses and no bumpers and all that.

This is right at my alley.

Steel wheels.

But the stock steering wheel and everything, which I love.

That's great.

It's really, really good.

It's a really good presentation.

That's the weird, kind of low pivot, semi-independent rear suspension.

Right, Randy?

Where like it kind of bends in the middle.

Absolutely.

Yeah.

And I never totally figured out how that all is supposed to work.

Like there's a weird, there's a center spring that's lateral.

And then it, but it's like a 60-40 pivot.

And it's like none of it, none of it.

It ends up being like a swing axle.

Yeah, it is.

And then that's dangerous, right?

It's also just the mechanics of how it actually works.

I was like, wait, why?

It's weird.

It's attached there.

It's pivoted there.

It's like, it's a, it's a super weird deal.

We had a Mars out and then swapped in a Pagoda axle.

Okay.

And so I had it like out in our hands and I was like,

this is the weirdest axle.

This doesn't make sense.

This can't work.

But it worked.

It sure did.

Awesome.

Great.

I remember that listing very distinctly.

Great.

Are you?

Good pit camp.

Oh yeah.

Do you?

It's all coming back as I'm looking at it.

Great presentation.

Wob has changed a lot the way and he still does a great job of presenting,

but this was how all the early Wob listings,

when he was like kind of one of our only power sellers.

I love it.

All right, Randy, round us out.

Dunzo, easy wild card, easy wild card.

We've sold a number of Riva's, Riva wooden boats.

We actually did sell a 1960 of the big boy twin engine, extreme set.

How big is that?

Like 28 foot?

Look at these cool engines.

That makes me so happy.

There's two keys next to each other and you put like the same key chain on both.

And then now you fire them independently.

Wow.

So cool.

Anyway, this one didn't meet reserve.

It was sold out of Europe 215.585.

There's some other non 1960 models that are that are cool.

There's the small one, the Florida, which is kind of more attainable.

And I may try to get one of those someday.

But there's also the dual engine, big granddaddy Tritone Tritone.

I don't know how the Italians say that.

But that's what you want.

You want the 26 footer, right?

I mean, the dream is the big one with two Chryslers in it.

If I could have two Chryslers driving one of those, that would be my absolute dream.

There you are.

I'm like Tahoe on this thing.

Tahoe is an epicenter of Riva activity.

And I just think they are absolutely incredible.

Perfect play for a wild card choice.

Yes, absolutely.

No wheels.

It's also all propeller and wood.

You've been talking Riva for a while.

Man, I forgot about the upholstery in this one.

We still...

Yeah, but yeah, there's some issues of why the bidding stopped where it did.

But this one's a 53 and a little bit earlier.

And it's the one that's sold for 725 grand from Scott Ailes.

Shout out Scott Ailes seller.

That's the actual dream-dream.

And if I could somehow massage the title of that one to say 1960.

Yeah.

That's the...

But that's the same model.

That's the big triple cocktail.

Yeah, twin engine on that.

Comes down to presentation and location and...

Oh, because if that one's a single huge scripts marinized V12.

That is a script's 12.

Yeah.

I mean, and 543 and then 67 years later, you got to think about where was V8 technology in 53?

There wasn't a small blockchef.

There was hardly a Hemi in 53.

Yeah.

And there was CAD maybe.

I mean, V8s weren't a thing.

331 CADs, right?

Yeah.

I mean, those were...

Over at Valve.

That was fresh stuff, right?

And this is already...

This V12 would have been a great choice.

Like dual V12s would have been insane, but nobody did it until later, I believe.

So 53 is early for that.

But 60, you're squarely in the V8 era.

And so twin V8s are what you need.

And I would love to have one of those.

And if somebody out there has one, they want to sell me for pennies

on the euro, I am available.

So did this style of boat...

Did it start with Christcraft in America?

And did this kind of like transfer over to European boatings?

I mean, there was European influence early, just as early.

I mean, they get credit as much as Americans do, right?

But the barrelback look and the way they put the hole together and different sorts of things.

I know who the experts are.

I'm not the expert.

But I mean, there were certainly...

I don't think Americans can come and say like,

we thought of the wooden boat, even though that's a very rich history of Christcraft

and hacker and all these cool makes.

Garwood.

Garwood is terrific.

But Riva's always just sort of had a halo because it's like Ferrari, right?

Like all the movie stars drove around and I'm in pictures and they were running around

Monaco and whatever else.

In the med.

Just in the best way possible.

Cary Grant, you know what I mean?

And some of my favorite movies ripping around in these.

So anyway, that is an amazing dream item for me.

And that is my wildcard.

Great pick.

Great.

Great stuff.

I'll recap this really quick.

Then we can do a couple honorable mentions because I had to leave some cars that I really loved

not on my list.

Okay.

So my picks.

Sports car, 356B in Condor yellow with a GT fuel tank, daily driver, 300 SL Roadster,

family hauler, Ford Country sedan, which is actually a wagon, truck four by four,

a single cab, Volkswagen transporter, wildcard, a 250 short wheelbase Ferrari,

specifically the chassis that finished seventh overall Le Mans in 1960.

Cam, sports car, Abarth 750 Zagato, daily, an SZ Alpha, Giulietta, family hauler,

DS19 Citroën, truck four by four, 88 series two Rover, a very good pick.

I really liked that one.

And wildcard or Mercedes, 220 SE four speed rally tribute.

For Randy, sports car, DB four, series two Aston.

Hold on.

You went totally off and picked the Ferrari Le Mans winner or whatever you picked.

So I want to upgrade mine to DB four GT, DB four GT.

I picked a DB four because it was on the site, but I can't compete with you if I don't pick

a DB four GT.

Okay.

All right.

Then I'm upgrading my Abarth to a GT.

Okay.

I mean, all right.

Great.

DB four slash aspirational DB four GT.

All right.

Great.

I hadn't listed your pick yet.

Sports car, Aston Martin, DB four GT.

Please, please.

Daily driver.

I actually love this pick and I missed it and I'm bummed.

The Chevrolet, the Chev Bel Air four speed 348, right?

Is that the motor?

348 four speed.

Family hauler Bentley S2 Moliner with a modern V8.

That's people are going to get me grief.

That's where I lose.

That's where I like that was the air ball free throw right there.

I think people are going to crucify my land.

I think they're going to crucify me for that one.

Well, you're bringing it back with a very photogenic Willy's station wagon for your

truck four by four.

That is a really good looking vehicle and wild card may also win the thing for you.

26 foot Riva Tritone wooden boat in the med with Keri Grant and Grace Kelly.

All of them.

Join me.

Couple honorable mentions that I got to throw out there.

Randy's going to roll his eyes at this one.

But I loved this car.

This was a XK150 listed by Hyman.

What are you talking about?

Roll my eyes.

Only because I didn't pick it.

This specific car, black, black wires, painted black wires with Lucas yellow driving

lamps and a Wabasto sunroof.

This was built at the same time when they were building E-types.

And I would actually rather have this than an early E-type.

I love this.

Do you and I both love 150 FHCs?

Yes.

Man, look at that car.

I know.

I think about this car all the time.

It's primitive, right?

I mean, it's primitive.

Look at that with that back three quarters though.

Come on.

It's really neat looking.

They're almost like hot roddy or something.

I don't know what it is about those late fixed heads.

And then I can't believe you don't care about these, Randy, but I didn't take this.

But a 300 F.

I was going to say, I can't believe a 300 F didn't get picked.

It doesn't fit anywhere kind of as part of the problem.

It's not a sports car.

It's not a family hauler.

It's not a sports car.

No.

You could use it as a daily.

I think.

But I needed the 300 SL and I needed the 356.

So interesting.

I was actually quite surprised when I was scrolling 1960 how many

Mopar product, Chrysler, Dodge, DeSoto, different stuff of that design.

We've listed a lot of them.

We've listed convertibles.

Sedans.

We've listed sedans.

There were way more than I thought.

Like I think it'd be all Chevy's and Ford's or whatever,

but there's a ton of Caddies and a ton of Chryslers.

I was actually really excited.

I thought for sure you were going to.

I was just, again, something awkward about this year where it didn't quite fit.

I mean, I would love one of those in IRL.

That's not your ideal year though.

You're 61, which is same exact body, but with the angled headlights.

The 300 G is what I like.

This is an F.

When you dream of a particular year, it's hard to be like,

okay, I'll get the 60, right?

I was the same way on a couple of cars.

I was kind of like, man, if 62 is the dream, you can't just buy this sort of.

Correct.

You know what I mean?

This was a very nice one and it was a cool car, but yeah.

I couldn't make it fit.

85.

Keeping that letter series market hot.

No, it's not.

The 50 cents are soft, but looking car.

That one is expensive.

Yeah.

That's when the Finns went bananas.

And these have the pivoting seats and four-place seatings.

That's why it's not really a family hauler.

It's got bucket seats in the back.

Yeah.

Anyway, love those cars with the cross-ramps.

Come on.

Yeah.

It's hard to deny that.

Yeah.

Any other honorable mentions for you guys?

Things that you had thought about picking that were pretty rad that you hated to leave behind?

I want an MGA.

Oh, yeah.

Right there.

I mean, an MG phase.

I love that center march hall too and the grill.

And the grill, the modded grill and wires and no bumpers.

There was a car that ran a California Mille once, which I always thought was really cool,

that they led an MGA into the Cal Mille, the Fairmont Martin Swig Cal Mille,

when I was maybe college or a little bit later.

I still remember it to this day because the wheel offset was just right on the wires

and no bumpers and cleaned up and green and low windshield.

This one's pretty racy.

This modified 1600 Roadster, but...

Twin cam pushrod.

Do you care about that?

I'm pushrod.

Yeah.

Twin cam is cool, but it's heavier and they have problems.

The one I always like is the deluxe, which is all the twin cam running gear,

but with a pushrod and the Dunlop wheels, but still has the pushrod motor,

which you can get all the power out of.

You build up the motor.

People can build those up or put a Judson on it or do whatever you got to do.

Judson.

Yes.

So I've been shopping these two to tell you, I'm on the scent.

I helped a buddy get an MGA and got my hands on it to wrench on it a little bit

and drive it around and they are just so neat.

I really, really like them and they look so good for such a cheap car.

I like fixed ends too.

They look like a 120 fixed end.

My buddy Jeff Glenn and his dad did one of those and sold it, I think, on VAT.

Those are cool too, but this is, it's so sleek and cool.

Yeah.

You want it with no windshield and all that.

That's what I want.

I actually want the cut down windshield for street.

This is full race, like almost no windshield bug guard, but I want like a 60% Plexi windshield.

That's a cool look.

Totally.

I like those a lot.

So I've been dreaming on that for 60, but not too many others that got away that I'm too

worried about other than that.

Sprint Speciale or just a Sprint.

I mean, he picked an SV and I just think a normal, a normal Giulietta was very much in

the realm.

I'm also a Giulietta TI guy, so it was almost too like normie for me for this game.

Family hauler.

I've tried.

We put five, four people in that one once.

I mean, an Italian family definitely would have been hauled.

I don't know if you ever saw it, but the Michael Mann Ferrari movie about the last

running of the Miele when the Ferrari crashed and everyone got wiped out.

Him and his wife are constantly being chauffeured around in Giulia sedans.

That's the car that everyone's riding around in.

Yep.

So 60 would have been like my one downstairs, and those are cool.

And we've sold a few, but-

Is yours a 60?

Mine's actually, I think it's produced in 60, but it's technically a 61, but like Italian

paperwork.

I mean, who knows what it is.

But I think we rode to Alfa Storico and they told us the production date.

I think it was late 60, but it's a 61 car.

Have either of you owned a car from 1960?

That's the closest for me.

I had a 61 Beetle, but not.

Yeah.

I thought about going Beetle for some answers on this one.

A stock beautiful gray color 60 Beetle is really hard to beat.

A very good gear.

60 is a really good gear.

That's my other honorable mention is I've been Jones and also for just a stocked out

Beetle is really cool shape.

Let someone else do all the work and just have it and just stare at it and cheers it.

I really would love it.

And you said thumbs down on Coupe de Ville.

No, your thumbs down on Cali is from 1960.

Well, 59 is super iconic.

60 kind of keeps the big front of the 59.

It's almost the same in my view.

And then lesser fin, which I actually think is good news.

I'm not into 59 fin, but they got so good.

But both, again, both before and after that, I love a 56 CAD.

And I love a 62 CAD.

I don't hate that.

And 60 is good.

But you see that look at the fenders.

No, you're right.

And the fender and the double headlights and the whole thing.

The front's basically a 59 to me.

And the 59 is not the car for me.

It's a great car, but I don't need it.

It was like peak peak huge CAD.

Add three or subtract three years.

And I'm in my sweet spot.

Totally.

Ranchero ready.

Did you think about it?

I did.

Yeah.

Okay.

The big one, the Fairlane one, not because the Falcon hadn't quite come yet.

Right? Was it a 61?

There's a Falcon came out and they're so sad.

But it's the little sedan deal.

The headlights are so sad.

It looks like the Adobe car.

Did you ever see that on Saturday Night Live?

The car made out of clay.

You'd like run into something and then you get out and like reform.

Oh my God.

That's so great.

The front of the 60 Falcon has always looked like the Adobe car to me.

And it's like kind of melting in the sun.

And I love it.

Again, it's so hard to get your mind over the fact that it's 63,

4 or 5 Falcon is so wonderful.

That's right.

That's the problem.

How can you do it?

But if it was the first day in 1960 and 1963 hadn't yet transpired.

You wouldn't know.

Maybe it'd be cool.

Yeah.

But now I'm poisoned with comparison of all this other stuff.

First year of the Corvair, which was an interesting for Chevrolet.

I like that.

That's actually a strong.

Yeah.

That would be the easiest choice if you pull first.

Daily driver would be cool for that.

Yeah.

The little mini cars.

Somebody already mentioned Bug Eye and 2CV, but also the mini.

I'm going to mini.

Minis were good.

Actually, my mini is 60.

The white one that Chickasad bought.

Don't know.

I don't know.

I got a look.

The only Japanese car I had was this.

We've listed quite a few of these, the little Datsun pickup trucks.

I thought about that as a pickup truck auction.

That was my only Japanese car on this whole list.

Those are kind of cool.

Malibu listed a couple of those.

ELG 221.

Yeah, they're cool.

The deep cuts call with that.

It looks like a mini in the front.

It struck me as a little bit toy-like.

You know what I mean?

I mean, I guess you could use it as a truck,

but it's like the little Morris minor pickup trucks.

It's a toy kind of.

Lotus elites.

Fiberglass monocoque.

I thought you were going to pick that.

I thought about it.

I thought you were going to do that instead of Porsche.

There were like six elites that finished Le Mans that year.

The thing about elites out there running with test arousas is so sick.

I also thought AC Aseca might pop up on your list.

I had that as a tab, but then I went DB and so I pulled it.

The problem is that somebody was going to steal DB,

and then I was going to do AC Aseca.

It's too many sports cars.

I wanted like eight sports cars from this year.

My mini was a 60.

Oh, hey, you have owned a 60.

2015 sold on BET for 20 grand.

Look at that nice short essentials column.

Lot number 214.

That's a cool lot number.

Lot number 214 and blew the motor in that thing.

Merged cylinders two or three.

Hey, there's your buddy from Slo.

Oh, Juergens?

That's Juergens putting the new engine in that he built for me in that car.

Awesome.

Shout out to you.

He's still wearing that same shop shirt.

British sports cars.

San Luis Obispo.

That was a cool car.

And let's look at that list of parts I had to buy that are in that listing.

Oh my gosh.

Whoa, that's a long scroll.

Oh boy, I lost my shirt on that car, but that was a fun mini.

This was possibly going to be my wild card just depending on the way the

road starts moving.

This might be handy to have in the garage.

One of those came to the Houston of that last weekend.

On rubber tires?

Yeah.

That British one?

Yeah, it's either that or something very similar to it.

But a British wheeled armored vehicle.

That's cool.

Sorry for those listening if you're still tuning in at this point.

Daimler ferret lot number 163396.

Yeah, that's a cool.

Urban assault vehicle ready to go.

All right, boys.

What a pleasure.

Did you enjoy yourself?

1960 was awesome.

What a great year for a bunch of the different contexts

we laid down, but then also so many choices.

Like I want a bunch that you guys picked and I want a bunch more slots to select for.

Yeah, I feel like this is a year that we could do this episode three times.

Yeah.

Like really interesting options every time we choose.

Every time I would want that VW single cab.

Yes.

Every time we do it.

I want to change the rules so I can just have the starting grid from LaMah and one of them

can be my truck and one can be my family.

This was a fun year.

It's good to challenge ourselves and do stuff.

I like the ones where it's an in-between year because you got to work a little bit harder.

Yeah.

We started with a lot of like 1963s and 1997s years where it's like, well, no duh.

Like we all know what we want.

And there is something fun about everyone competing for a couple top picks,

but it's fun to also not have overlap.

We had more than I thought.

Honestly.

Same.

Well, thank you, gents.

Thanks everyone for listening.

As always, please feel free to send feedback to podcast at bringitrailer.com and we will

catch you next time.
