(ANNOUNCER)>> TODAY ON MUSCLE
CAR IT'S A BIG LEAP FORWARD FOR PROJECT BUSINESS
TIME, OUR 700 HORSEPOWER BLOWN PRO STREET DODGE. THIS MOPAR GOES FROM
BLACK TO PLASTIC, TO PRIMER, TO PRISTINE.
LEARN HOW TO USE YOUR COMPUTER TO MAKE GRAPHICS FOR YOUR
RIDE, AND WATCH A HERD OF PONIES RUN ALL OVER THE OKLAHOMA PLAINS.
(TOMMY)>> OUR '74 PRO STREET DART, PROJECT BUSINESS TIME, IS IN THE MIDDLE OF A MAKEOVER.
OUR BUDDY JASON ANDERSON WITH ANDERSON CUSTOMS OUT OF CLAREMORE, OKLAHOMA, LENT US A HAND WITH SMOOTHING OUT THE GNARLY SPOTS ON THE BODY. AFTER SOME INITIAL MUD WORK, IT GOT PRIMED AND BLOCKED OUT SEVERAL TIMES. I GOT TO GET IN ON THE ACTION AS WELL WORKING THE BUMPERS AND SMOOTHING OUT THE BODY ALONGSIDE JASON.
WE TRY TO ALWAYS BLOW OFF THE CAR WHILE IT'S STILL IN THE PREP STATION SO THAT THE DUST IS CAPTURED BY OUR BOOTS INSTEAD OF OUR LUNGS.
A PIECE OF CLEAN PAPER TOWEL WILL HELP UNSEAT ANY DUST THAT'S STUCK ON THERE, AND GETS OUR SURFACE NICE AND CLEAN. WITH IT BLOWN OFF, WE'RE READY TO START WIPING OLD BUSINESS TIME DOWN. OUR PROJECT FOR TODAY IS TO GET IT DRESSED UP IN ITS NEW SUIT, AND WE'RE STICKING PRETTY CLOSE TO THE RENDERING THAT OUR BUDDY BRIAN AT STUDIO PCK DID FOR US, THE BRIGHT
GREEN, THE HOOD GRAPHICS, THE WHOLE NINE YEARS. ALL THAT BODY WORK THAT JASON AND I DID GOT US TO WHERE WE
NEEDED TO BE REGARDING THE STRAIGHTNESS OF THE PANELS, BUT THERE'S STILL A LITTLE BIT OF PREP WORK THAT'S LEFT TO DO. BUT YOU GUYS KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS, IT'S TIME TO BREAK OUT THE TAPE.
(STEVE)>> AND YOU GUYS MAY BE LIKE ME. SPEND YOUR WHOLE LIFE WRENCHING ON THESE CARS AND LOVING EVERY MINUTE OF IT.
BUT MANY MANY MOONS AGO I TRIED MY HAND AT BODY WORK AND DECIDED IT WASN'T MY THING.
(TOMMY)>> YOU KNOW, YOU DO HAVE TALENT THOUGH. WE HAVEN'T QUITE FOUND IT, BUT I'M SURE YOU'VE GOT SOME.
(STEVE)>> I'M WORKING ON IT, I'M GONNA FIND MYSELF.
(TOMMY)>> KEEP AT IT.
(STEVE)>> REGARDLESS, THERE ARE PLENTY OF OTHER THINGS I CAN BE DOING LIKE PREPPING THIS MOTOR, WHICH HAS ALREADY BEEN SPRAYED.
IT'S RUNNING THE COLOR THAT PROJECT BUSINESS TIME IS GONNA HAVE FOR THE REST OF ITS LIFE, PPG COLOR CALLED WILLOW GREEN. AND THAT IS ONE BRIGHT GREEN.
(TOMMY)>> NOW NOT ALL TAPE IS CREATED EQUAL. NOW WHENEVER IT COMES TO PAINTING A CAR I LIKE TO USE A QUALITY MATERIAL. NOW YOU'VE PROBABLY SEEN THIS BLUE STUFF BEFORE. AND IT'S PRETTY GOOD IF YOU'RE PAINTING YOUR HOUSE, BUT IT'S NOT REALLY DESIGNED FOR AUTOMOTIVE PAINT. THE MASKING TAPE THAT YOU WANT TO USE FOR THIS TYPE OF WORK HAS A COATING ON THE TOP SIDE TO KEEP THE PAINT AND SOLVENTS FROM PENETRATING IT, AND CAUSING THE ADHESIVE TO TURN LOOSE. WHEN THAT HAPPENS THE NEXT THING YOU KNOW YOUR MASKING JOB IS FALLING OFF INTO THE FLOOR. OR WHENEVER YOU SPRAY UP AGAINST IT, THE
PAINT BLOWS UNDERNEATH. NOW YOU MAY HAVE SEEN PEOPLE USE THE OLD SUNDAY FUNNIES TO MASK OFF A CAR. WELL DOES THAT WORK, KIND OF. THE PROBLEM WITH NEWSPAPER IS WELL IT KINDA SOAKS PAINT UP LIKE A SPONGE.
YOU CAN GET BLOW THROUGH, OR HECK I'VE EVEN SEEN THE INK TRANSFERRED ONTO THE NEW FANCY PANTS PAINT JOB. WHAT CAUSES THAT IS THE SOLVENTS INSIDE OF THE AUTOMOTIVE PAINT. WHAT YOU NEED TO USING IS SOMETHING LIKE THIS. REAL MASKING PAPER WON'T TRANSFER ANY PAINT OR INK FOR THAT MATTER, AND IT DOESN'T BREAK DOWN UNDER ALL THE SOLVENTS. NOW THIS STUFF REALLY ISN'T ALL THAT EXPENSIVE. WE PICKED THIS ROLL UP FOR ABOUT $28 BUCKS FROM AUTO BODY COLOR AND SUPPLY. SO SERIOUSLY GUYS, THIS STUFF IS WELL WORTH THE INVESTMENT.
FIRST DAY!
NOW WHEN YOU MASK, NORMALLY WHAT PEOPLE THINK OF IS WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO KEEP THE PAINT OFF OF. WELL WE'RE GONNA USE IT ANOTHER FORM. WE'RE ACTUALLY GONNA TAPE OFF THE WINDOW HOLES AND THE OPENINGS OF THE DOORS. WHAT THAT'S GONNA DO IS KEEP ALL THIS DEBRIS AND EXTRA OLD
JUNK FROM THE INSIDE OF THE CAR FROM BLOWING BACK OUT ON TOP OF OUR FRESH PAINT.
(STEVE)>> AND FOR ALL YOU GUYS WHO HEARD ME SAY EARLIER THAT PAINT AND BODY WORK WASN'T MY THING, NOW YOU KNOW.
(ANNOUNCER)>> DID YOU KNOW THAT THE KIND OF REDUCER YOU USE TO PAINT YOUR CAR CAN DEPEND ON WHERE YOU LIVE? COMING UP FIND OUT WHETHER THE WEATHER IS RIGHT FOR THIS TYPE OR THAT.
(STEVE)>> YOU KNOW, WHEN IT COMES TO MOPARS, IT ALWAYS SEEMS THAT YOU CAN'T GO WRONG WITH ORANGE, BUT I'M AFRAID WE CAN'T LEAVE THE DART IN PRIMER. IT JUST WOULDN'T BE RIGHT. SO TOMMY'S OVER THERE GETTING READY TO DO THE VOODOO THAT HE DO, I THINK THAT CAME OUT RIGHT, AND GET THE SPRAY GUNS GOING.
(TOMMY)>> FIRST ON TOP OF THAT RUST DEFENDER PRIMER WE'RE GONNA SPRAY ON A COAT OF WHITE EPOXY SEALER. SEALER COMES IN A FEW DIFFERENT TYPES.
THEY'VE GOT ACRYLIC, THEY'VE GOT URETHANE, AND THERE ARE A FEW OTHERS.
EPOXY SEALER IS A GREAT ALL AROUND TYPE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO PUT A VARIETY OF TOP COSTS OVER IT. AND YOU ALSO HAVE A LARGER WINDOW OF TIME TO COVER IT UP. THE SEALERS, IF YOU LET THE WINDOW EXPIRE, YOU HAVE TO COME BACK AND SCUFF IT BEFORE YOU SPRAY PAINT. SOMETIMES YOU EVEN HAVE TO REAPPLY IT.
(STEVE)>> AS FOR THE COLOR HE'S USING, WHITE, THAT'S GOING TO INCREASE THE VIBRANCE OF THE WILLOW GREEN, WHICH IS GOING TO BE SPRAYED OVER THE TOP OF IT.
(TOMMY)>> SO OUR SEALER'S ON, THAT MEANS IT'S TIME FOR THE DART TO UNDERGO ITS BIG TRANSFORMATION. I MIXED THE GREEN WITH SOME 885 REDUCER. I'D LIKE TO GET INTO THE PARTICULARS OF THAT HERE IN A FEW SECONDS, BUT FIRST LETS PAINT THE CAR. I'LL START WITH THE JAMBS SO I CAN CLOSE THE DOORS AND SPRAY DOWN THE SIDE OF THE CAR WITHOUT DOING IT IN PIECES. YOU'LL NOTICE THAT ON THE EDGES OF THE SPRAY PATTERN THE COLOR ACTUALLY LOOKS YELLOW WHERE THE PAINT IS THINNER. I'M OVERLAPPING ABOUT 50 PERCENT. THAT'S A PRETTY STANDARD AMOUNT TO MAKE SURE THAT I GET GOOD COVERAGE.
OKAY, WITH THE GREEN SPRAYED ON OUR DODGE, LETS TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE REDUCER THAT I USED.
THIS IS PPG'S DT 885. IT'S DESIGNED TO BE A MEDIUM TO SLOW DRYING REDUCER, AND THERE'S A REASON THAT I CHOSE IT. 885 WORKS BEST IN THE 75 TO 90 DEGREE TEMPERATURE RANGE. IT JUST SO HAPPENS THE INSIDE OF OUR BOOTH TEMP IS RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THAT. NOW THE 870, IT'S DESIGNED FOR 65 TO 80 DEGREES BECAUSE IT DISSIPATES FASTER.
NOW IF YOU TRY TO USE THIS IN A BOOTH WHERE THE TEMPERATURE IS VERY MUCH WARMER THAN THAT, YOU'LL END UP WITH THE PAINT
DRYING FASTER THAN YOU CAN SPRAY IT, AND THAT CAN REALLY MESS UP YOUR FINISH. IF YOU'VE EVER DEALT WITH DRY SPRAY, YEAH IT'S NO FUN. FOR HIGH TEMP SOMETHING LIKE THIS 895 MIGHT BE MORE APPROPRIATE. IT DISSIPATES MORE SLOWLY AND WON'T CAUSE THE DRY SPRAY IF YOU USE IT IN A CLIMATE THAT'S OVER 90 DEGREES. YOU MIGHT BE WONDERING WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF YOU USE A SLOW
REDUCER IN A LOW TEMPERATURE. WHAT THAT CAUSES IS THE PAINT TO TAKE A REALLY LONG TIME TO DRY. THUS CAUSING A LOT OF MATERIAL TO GET IN THE PAINT BECAUSE IT'S STILL SOFT, OR SOME RUNS OR SAGS. YOU MAY BE THINKING, HOW BIG CAN THE DIFFERENCE REALLY BE IF I POUR THESE THREE CAP FULLS OF REDUCER ONTO SOME MASKING PAPER AND WE WATCH THEM DISSIPATE OFF, YOU CAN
REALLY SEE THAT THERE'S A GOOD SIZE STEP BETWEEN EACH ONE. WITH ALL THAT SAID, I'M GONNA TAKE MY 885, MIX UP SOME CLEAR, MAKE THAT OLD DODGE ALL SHINY.
(ANNOUNCER)>> MAKE SURE NOBODY GETS CONFUSED ABOUT WHAT YOU'RE PACKING UNDER THE HOOD WITH SOME IN YOUR FACE GRAPHICS. THEN JUMP INSIDE A GT 350 FOR A FEW SPINS AROUND A ROAD COURSE.
(STEVE)>> HEY GUYS, WE'RE BACK. WE PUT THE HOOD ON THE DODGE AND GAFFED IT BACK UP. IT'S ALREADY BEEN SPRAYED BLACK ON THE BOTTOM. NOW WE'VE GOT TO MASK IT OFF UNDERNEATH AND GET IT PREPPED FOR GRAPHICS. WELL NOW THAT WE'RE DOWN TO THE LAST 10 PERCENT, FINISHING UP THE PAINT WORK AS WELL AS EVERYTHING ELSE WENT,
WE'VE GOT TO MAKE SURE WE'RE REALLY CAREFUL.
(TOMMY)>> THE NEXT PHASE OF OUR PLAN IS GOING TO INVOKE SOME OF THOSE ORIGINAL MUSCLE ERA PAINT JOBS THAT YOU WOULD SEE ON A MOPAR. WE'RE CARRYING THAT TRADITION OF BIG VISUAL GRAPHICS UNDER OUR DART AS WELL WITH SOME BIG OLE HEMI LETTERS.
(STEVE)>> THERE'S MANY DIFFERENT WAYS TO GO ABOUT MAKING OUR LETTERING. AND SINCE THE GRAPHIC ON BOTH SIDES OF THE HOOD IS GOING TO BE IDENTICAL, WE ALSO WANT THEM TO BE SYMMETRICAL. AND ONE WAY TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN IS TO MAKE A STENCIL. YOU CAN DO AN IMAGE SEARCH TO TRY AND FIND THE TYPE OF LETTERING THAT FLOATS YOUR BOAT. WE COULD ALSO LOOK AT WORK PROCESSING PROGRAMS AND PICK OUT A FONT THAT WE LIKE. SOMETHING THAT MIGHT LOOK LIKE THIS. YOU CAN TAKE THAT IMAGE TO YOUR LOCAL PRINT SHOP AND
GET IT BLOWN UP TO ANY SIZE YOU NEED. WE'VE CHOSEN TO DO OURS IN VINYL BECAUSE IT'S EASY TO MAINTAIN UNIFORMITY WHEN WE PUT IT ON THE HOOD. THE $50 BUCKS THAT WE SPENT ON THIS WILL EASILY SAVE US A COUPLE OF HOURS WORTH OF SANDING AND MASKING TIME.
(TOMMY)>> I'M GONNA FLATTEN THESE OUT ON THE TABLE AND USE SOME OF OUR TV LIGHTS TO HEAT UP THE VINYL AND MAKE IT TAKE THAT SHAPE.
IT ALSO WORKS JUST AS WELL TO LAY THEM OUT IN THE WARM SUN FOR A BIT. I'LL FINISH MASKING WHILE IT WARMS UP. TAKE YOUR TIME ON THIS, INVEST SOME TAPE, SEE WHAT YOU LIKE, SEE WHAT YOU DON'T LIKE. I'VE GOT A LITTLE TIP FOR YOU. WHENEVER YOU'RE DOING A TWO TONE OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, TAPE YOUR JAMB SEAMS OFF. WHAT THAT DOES, IF YOU JUST TOOK A PIECE OF PAPER AND MASK OVER THAT, THE OVERSPRAY'S STILL GONNA GET BACK ON
TOP OF YOUR NEW SURFACE. BUT IF YOU TAPE OFF THAT JAMB, IT CAN'T COME OUT OF IT.
(STEVE)>> NOW WE CAN LAY OUT THE HEMI GRAPHIC WITH THE VINYL STICKERS, BEING CAREFUL TO MAKE SURE IT'S NICE AND STRAIGHT.
A QUICK SCUFF JOB ON THE SURFACES THAT WILL GET PAINTED AND WE CAN BREAK OUT THE BLACK.
(TOMMY)>> I'M SPRAYING ON A STANDARD PURE BLACK.
NO BLUES, PURPLES, OR ANY OTHER TONERS TO BE FOUND. SOME FLEX AND FLAT CLEAR DILUTED DOWN BY ABOUT 10 PERCENT WITH REGULAR GLOSSY CLEAR WILL GIVE US JUST THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF FLATNESS. THEN WE CAN REVEAL OUR MASTERPIECE TO THE WORLD, WHOO!
(STEVE)>> THIS IS THE PART OF THE PAINT JOB WHERE YOU WANT TO GO SLOWLY AND CAREFULLY. GETTING TOO EXCITED HERE IS A GOOD WAY TO SET YOURSELF BACK A FEW DAYS.
(TOMMY)>> LOOKS LIKE ALL THAT PATIENCE HAS PAID OFF.
(STEVE)>> THE COMBINATION OF THOSE BIGS AND LITTLES.
(TOMMY)>> THAT STANCE, I REALLY THINK WE'RE ON TO SOMETHING HERE.
(ANNOUNCER)>> COMING UP, SEE HOW A VINTAGE MUSTANG RACING CLUB DOES IT WHEN THEY HEAD TO THE RACE TRACK.
(TOMMY)>> HEY GUYS, IT'S NOT EVERYDAY YOU GET TO SEE A FORD SVT BOSS 302 SITTING BESIDE A SHELBY GT 500. IF YOU'RE A FAN OF FORD POWERED MUSCLE, THIS IS THE PLACE TO BE.
(STEVE)>> EVERY JUNE JUST OUTSIDE OF TULSA, A LITTLE ROAD COURSE CALLED HALLET RACEWAY GETS TAKEN OVER BY A HERD OF PONIES. (STEVE L.)>> HALLET IS THE ROAD RACE COURSE FOR THE 38TH ANNUAL FORD SHELBY MEET, AND IT'S ONE OF THE LARGEST. IT ATTRACTS PEOPLE FROM 38 STATES, SEVERAL FOREIGN COUNTRIES. IT IS BY FAR THE BEST COLLECTION. WE'VE GOT GT 500'S, WE'VE GOT BOSSES, WE'VE GOT MUSTANGS, WE'VE GOT SHELBYS OF ALL AGES, AND THEY ALL COME HERE JUST TO HAVE A PLAIN GOOD TIME, MEET EACH OTHER, AND HAVE SOME FUN ON THE COURSE.
(TOMMY)>> YOU AIN'T GONNA SEE ANY BOW TIES OR HEMIS
AT THIS GET TOGETHER. IT'S ALL SHELBYS, FORDS, FOXES, AND FASTBACKS.
(JOHN)>> IT PUTS YOU BACK IN YOUR SEAT.
IT SLINGS YOU TO THE RIGHT, SLINGS YOU TO THE LEFT. YEAH, YOU TAKE IT OFF THE TRACK, YOU HOSE IT OFF, GO TO DINNER THAT NIGHT.
(TOMMY)>> THERE ARE A LOT OF DIFFERENT CLASSES HITTING THE TRACK TODAY.
ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR IS THE VINTAGE CLASS. SITTING UNDER THIS TENT IS A WHOLE MESS OF '60'S ERA SHELBY MUSTANGS, AND THE GUYS DRIVING THEM ARE A TIGHT KNIT GROUP THAT KEEP COMING BACK YEAR AFTER YEAR.
(TOM)>> EXCITED, THE ADRENALINE FLOWS, GOOSE BUMPS
WHEN THAT MOTOR STARTS.
(STEVE)>> TOM HASSELL WAS BROUGHT INTO THE WORLD OF ROAD COURSE RACING BY HIS BROTHER GENE.
(GENE)>> THERE MAY BE A LITTLE UNSPOKEN RIVALRY THERE. I NEVER THOUGHT WHEN I GOT INTO THIS THAT AIR PRESSURE
MEANT THAT MUCH, BUT IT REALLY MAKES A BIG DIFFERENCE IN THE WAY THESE CARS HANDLE. THROWING INTO A TURN AT ABOUT ONE "G", TWO POUNDS OF AIR PRESSURE CAN MAKE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HOLDING THE CORNER AND OVER STEERING AND SPINNING OUT. THERE'S NO NEW TECHNOLOGY INFUSED INTO THESE CARS. WE'RE STILL ON BIAS PLY TIRES, WE'RE ON STANDARD STEERING SUSPENSION. THE TOP TECHNOLOGY OF THE DAY, THAT'S WHAT WE STRIVE TO MAINTAIN, AND THAT'S WHAT THE ATTRACTION FOR THIS VENUE IS.
(TOMMY)>> GREG REYNOLDS IS CONSISTENTLY A TOP RUNNER
IN THE VINTAGE SERIES IN HIS '67 GT 350 SHELBY. IT'S PRETTY MUCH ALL RACE READY ORIGINAL EXCEPT DUE TO PARTS AVAILABILITY, THE FACTORY 289 HAS BEEN BUMPED TO A 302.
(GREG)>> IT'S PRETTY MUCH AS YOU WOULD HAVE SEEN IN THE ERA KIND OF CAR.
(STEVE)>> IN A FIELD OF A DOZEN OR SO VINTAGE MUSTANGS AND ONE '70 ESCORT, YOU USUALLY FIND GREG UP TOWARDS THE FRONT STEERING AROUND THE OTHER DRIVERS AND POUNDING ON THAT FOUR SPEED. ALL WITH ONE ARM.
(GREG)>> I HAD AN ACCIDENT. I WAS 41 YEARS OLD AND I LOST MY HAND. AND THE PASSION WAS STILL THERE, I WANTED TO BE ABLE TO DO WHAT I WANTED TO DO.
I STILL WANTED TO CONTINUE ON WITH MY LIFE. I WAS FITTED WITH A PROSTHETIC, CALLED A MILD ELECTRIC PROSTHETIC, WHICH HAS MOVEMENT CONTROLLED BY INPUT FROM THE ARM AND IT'S BATTERY POWERED. I HOPE TO ENCOURAGE PEOPLE THAT HAVE ACCIDENTS, ESPECIALLY OUR RETURNING VETERANS FROM THE WARS, TO UNDERSTAND THAT THE HUMAN BODY IS ADAPTABLE AND IT'S ALL IN YOUR HEAD. YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT TO DO IF YOU HAVE THE DESIRE AND THE PASSION.
COULD DO THIS, I'D SCARE THE KIDS A LITTLE.
(TOMMY)>> BESIDES TAKING HIS HAND OFF AND CHASING KIDS WITH IT, AFTER HE TAKES SECOND PLACE IN THE RACE, GREG LIKES TO JOIN THE OTHER DRIVERS AND GIVE RIDES ON THE TRACK TO PEOPLE AT THE EVENT. SO FAR NOBODY'S THROWN UP IN THE CAR.
(GREG)>> IT WAS GRATIFYING TO ME IN MY OWN MIND TO KNOW THAT I COULD STILL BE COMPETITIVE GIVEN MY LIMITATIONS. SOMETIMES I LOOK AT IT AS AN ASSET NOW BECAUSE IT'S MADE ME CONCENTRATE ON HOW TO BECOME A BETTER DRIVER. AND TO BECOME A GOOD DRIVE IT'S ABOUT SEAT TIME. IT'S SEAT TIME, THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE FOR SEAT TIME.
(TOMMY)>> WELL I SWEET TALKED THESE GUYS INTO TAKING FOR A RIDE.
GOT TO PUT THIS HELMET ON FOR SAFETY AND TRY NOT TO PEE.
(STEVE)>> TOMMY'S IN THE CAPABLE HANDS OF EDDIE CAAN, A FORD SVT ENGINEER. THEY'RE GOING AROUND THE RACEWAY IN A 2013 GT 500, WHICH WE DISCOVERED IS WHOLE DIFFERENT WORLD FROM THOSE VINTAGE CARS.
(TOMMY)>> BUT IT'S NICE THAT THEY HAVE THE OPTION THOUGH.
(EDDIE)>> YES, AND THAT'S THE REASON WE WANT TO DO BECAUSE NOT EVERYBODY WANT TO HAVE THE EXTRA WEIGHT IN THE VEHICLE.
(STEVE)>> THIS THING IS QUIET ENOUGH THAT YOU CAN JUST ABOUT HAVE A CHEESE SAMPLING IN THE CAR AT 120 MILES AN HOUR. IF ONLY TOP HATS WOULD FIT OVER THE RACING HELMETS. HEY GUYS, IF I LOOK A LITTLE WORSE FOR WEAR, THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I WAS GOING FOR.
I JUST CRAWLED OUT OF A '67 SHELBY MUSTANG, WENT FOR A RIDE ALONG, WHICH ANYBODY CAN DO IF YOU GUYS COME OUT TO THIS EVENT.
THE GUYS WILL PUT IN THE CAR, TAKE YOU FOR A RIDE, IT'S A BLAST, IT'LL WEAR YOU OUT THOUGH. WE'LL SEE YOU NEXT TIME, LATER. ( )>> IF YOU'VE GOT ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT ANYTHING YOU'VE SAW ON THE SHOW TODAY.
( )>> LOG ON TO POWERBLOCK TV DOT COM, YEAH.

(STEVE)>> YOU KNOW, WHEN IT COMES TO MOPARS, IT ALWAYS SEEMS THAT YOU CAN'T GO WRONG WITH ORANGE, BUT I'M AFRAID WE CAN'T LEAVE THE DART IN PRIMER. IT JUST WOULDN'T BE RIGHT. SO TOMMY'S OVER THERE GETTING READY TO DO THE VOODOO THAT HE DO, I THINK THAT CAME OUT RIGHT, AND GET THE SPRAY GUNS GOING.
(TOMMY)>> FIRST ON TOP OF THAT RUST DEFENDER PRIMER WE'RE GONNA SPRAY ON A COAT OF WHITE EPOXY SEALER. SEALER COMES IN A FEW DIFFERENT TYPES.

(STEVE)>> IN A FIELD OF A DOZEN OR SO VINTAGE MUSTANGS AND ONE '70 ESCORT, YOU USUALLY FIND GREG UP TOWARDS THE FRONT STEERING AROUND THE OTHER DRIVERS AND POUNDING ON THAT FOUR SPEED. ALL WITH ONE ARM.
(GREG)>> I HAD AN ACCIDENT. I WAS 41 YEARS OLD AND I LOST MY HAND. AND THE PASSION WAS STILL THERE, I WANTED TO BE ABLE TO DO WHAT I WANTED TO DO.
I STILL WANTED TO CONTINUE ON WITH MY LIFE. I WAS FITTED WITH A PROSTHETIC, CALLED A MILD ELECTRIC PROSTHETIC, WHICH HAS MOVEMENT CONTROLLED BY INPUT FROM THE ARM AND IT'S BATTERY POWERED. I HOPE TO ENCOURAGE PEOPLE THAT HAVE ACCIDENTS, ESPECIALLY OUR RETURNING VETERANS FROM THE WARS, TO UNDERSTAND THAT THE HUMAN BODY IS ADAPTABLE AND IT'S ALL IN YOUR HEAD. YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT TO DO IF YOU HAVE THE DESIRE AND THE PASSION.
COULD DO THIS, I'D SCARE THE KIDS A LITTLE.
(TOMMY)>> BESIDES TAKING HIS HAND OFF AND CHASING KIDS WITH IT, AFTER HE TAKES SECOND PLACE IN THE RACE, GREG LIKES TO JOIN THE OTHER DRIVERS AND GIVE RIDES ON THE TRACK TO PEOPLE AT THE EVENT. SO FAR NOBODY'S THROWN UP IN THE CAR.
(GREG)>> IT WAS GRATIFYING TO ME IN MY OWN MIND TO KNOW THAT I COULD STILL BE COMPETITIVE GIVEN MY LIMITATIONS. SOMETIMES I LOOK AT IT AS AN ASSET NOW BECAUSE IT'S MADE ME CONCENTRATE ON HOW TO BECOME A BETTER DRIVER. AND TO BECOME A GOOD DRIVE IT'S ABOUT SEAT TIME. IT'S SEAT TIME, THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE FOR SEAT TIME.
(TOMMY)>> WELL I SWEET TALKED THESE GUYS INTO TAKING FOR A RIDE.
GOT TO PUT THIS HELMET ON FOR SAFETY AND TRY NOT TO PEE.
(STEVE)>> TOMMY'S IN THE CAPABLE HANDS OF EDDIE CAAN, A FORD SVT ENGINEER. THEY'RE GOING AROUND THE RACEWAY IN A 2013 GT 500, WHICH WE DISCOVERED IS WHOLE DIFFERENT WORLD FROM THOSE VINTAGE CARS.
(TOMMY)>> BUT IT'S NICE THAT THEY HAVE THE OPTION THOUGH.
(EDDIE)>> YES, AND THAT'S THE REASON WE WANT TO DO BECAUSE NOT EVERYBODY WANT TO HAVE THE EXTRA WEIGHT IN THE VEHICLE.
(STEVE)>> THIS THING IS QUIET ENOUGH THAT YOU CAN JUST ABOUT HAVE A CHEESE SAMPLING IN THE CAR AT 120 MILES AN HOUR. IF ONLY TOP HATS WOULD FIT OVER THE RACING HELMETS. HEY GUYS, IF I LOOK A LITTLE WORSE FOR WEAR, THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I WAS GOING FOR.
I JUST CRAWLED OUT OF A '67 SHELBY MUSTANG, WENT FOR A RIDE ALONG, WHICH ANYBODY CAN DO IF YOU GUYS COME OUT TO THIS EVENT.
THE GUYS WILL PUT IN THE CAR, TAKE YOU FOR A RIDE, IT'S A BLAST, IT'LL WEAR YOU OUT THOUGH. WE'LL SEE YOU NEXT TIME, LATER. ( )>> IF YOU'VE GOT ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT ANYTHING YOU'VE SAW ON THE SHOW TODAY.
( )>> LOG ON TO POWERBLOCK TV DOT COM, YEAH.
