Richard: THERE'S NOT A LOT OF SURE BETS IN LIFE,
BUT ONE THING I PUT MY MONEY ON TIME AND TIME AGAIN
IS TRUCKS -- THEY'LL ALWAYS BE COOL.
♪♪
Richard: WHEN WE DRAGGED THIS '33 FORD OUT OF BRIAN BASS' SHOP,
WE KNEW WE HAD SOMETHING COOL,
WE JUST DIDN'T KNOW HOW COOL AT THE TIME.
I'M GONNA CALL MATER AND HAVE HIM COME GET IT
SO YOU HAVE A LOT OF [BLEEP] TO MOVE TO GET IT OUT OF HERE.
THAT'S NOT PART OF THE DEAL.
I THINK THESE GUYS NEED TO STICK AROUND AND HELP ME.
OH, NO. HUH-UH. WE'RE NOT GETTING MONEY FOR THAT.
Richard: OUR INITIAL PLAN WAS TO BUILD A FUNCTIONAL,
PERIOD-CORRECT SHOP TRUCK.
THE FIRST THING WE WANTED TO DO
WAS PUT SOME POWER INTO THE TRUCK.
SO WE REPLACED THAT OLD, TIRED MOTOR WITH A BADASS
FLATHEAD V8 THAT I HAD LAYING AROUND THE SHOP.
WITH THIS FLATHEAD V8, WE NEEDED TO GET SOME CARBS
OVER TO US THAT COULD HANDLE THE POWER.
THE STROMBERG 97 CARBURETOR, WELL, IT DID JUST THAT.
♪♪
WHOO!
NOW AS FAR AS THE EXTERIOR OF THE TRUCK,
IT LOOKED SO COOL FROM THE GET GO,
THAT FOR THE MOST PART WE WANTED TO KEEP IT JUST LIKE THAT.
THE CLASSIC LOOK, BUT WITH A TOUCH OF HOTROD COOL.
YOU KNOW, GAS MONKEY STYLE.
THE ORIGINAL PAINT, WELL, IT WAS PATINAED TO PERFECT.
WHICH TOOK NATURE YEARS TO MAKE.
THAT BEING SAID, I WANTED TO DRESS UP
THE TRUCK EXTERIOR JUST A BIT.
SO WE ADDED A LITTLE TOUCH OF NICKEL PLATING
TO BREAK UP THE PATINA.
THAT, COMBINED WITH THE LARGER, COMMERCIAL HEADLIGHTS WE STOLE
OFF A BIG TRUCK, AND THE PAINT WE SPLASHED
ON THE WHEELS, WELL, THIS TRUCK'S REALLY SET OFF.
♪♪
KEEPING MOST OF THE ORIGINAL LOOK OF THE EXTERIOR
WAS THE RIGHT CALL, BUT REST OF THE TRUCK
WAS A DIFFERENT STORY.
WE UPDATED THE CHASSIS AND INTERIOR
TO MAKE THIS THE MOST COMFORTABLE,
BADASS DRIVING '33 TRUCK AROUND.
I'VE SAID IT MANY TIMES BEFORE, I WISH I COULD KEEP THEM ALL.
BUT I'VE ALSO SAID MANY TIMES BEFORE
THAT I GOTTA SELL THESE CARS TO KEEP THE BUSINESS GOING.
SO IT'D BE COOL TO KEEP THIS '33 AROUND TO USE AS A SHOP TRUCK,
BUT YOU KNOW WHAT'S EVEN COOLER THAN THAT?
A FAT STACK OF CASH IN MY HAND.
SORRY, MONKEYS, NO '33 TRUCK FOR YOU.
