RMD Garage

Ralph: GO. GO. GO. GO. GO. GO. GO. GO.

FREEZE!

CHICKA, CHICKA, WHAT?

I WANT TO TAKE THE 1962 LINCOLN OVER TO BARRETT-JACKSON, BABY.

I GOT TO INVEST IN THE GARAGE, AND I GOT TO MAKE SOME MOVES.

$57,000.

DEFINITELY NEED TO BRING SOME MONEY HOME.

HOW BEAUTIFUL IS THIS '56?

WHO DOESN'T LOVE GREEN AND LOVE MONEY?

BAM!

Victor: PUT THE MIRRORS UP.

I'M TRYING TO CONCENTRATE HERE.

OH, MY GOD. EDDIE.

I'M EXCITED. I'M EXCITED.

DID I SAY THAT? DID I SAY THAT ALREADY?

-AND SOLD! -SOLD!

WHOO!

I'M REALLY EXCITED!

I'M RALPH HOLGUIN, AND I'M LIVING THE AMERICAN DREAM.

I'M A HIGH SCHOOL DROPOUT, AND AT THE AGE OF 19,

I OPENED UP MY OWN CAR WASH BUSINESS.

NOW I OWN A SHOP THAT BUILDS, RESTORES, AND MODERNIZES

SOME OF THE BADDEST CARS AROUND.

DON'T DREAM IT. BUILD IT.

CAPTIONS PAID FOR BY DISCOVERY COMMUNICATIONS

HEY, SAM. HAVE YOU SEEN PATSY?

NO, I HAVE NOT.

CAN YOU GET THAT WASHED, PLEASE?

WHERE IS EVERYBODY AT?

HEY, HAVE YOU SEEN PATSY?

I THINK SHE'S IN THE CONFERENCE ROOM.

JESSIE, THANK YOU SO MUCH, BUDDY.

HEY, GUYS, HOW'S IT GOING?

WHO'S WINNING?

HEY. OH, DUDE, I NEED TO SEE YOU.

YOU GOT THOSE DOORS?

YOU SURE?

DUDE, THAT'S GOING TO LOOK SO GOOD.

-HI! -BYE!

HI. OH, MY GOD. BABY, YOU LOOK AMAZING.

YOU LOOK LIKE A MILLION BUCKS.

OKAY. I FEEL LIKE YOU WANT SOMETHING.

MY WIFE, PATSY, IS IN CHARGE OF THE FINANCES HERE IN THE GARAGE.

I HAVE A GREAT IDEA FOR A NEW BUILD,

BUT FIRST, I GOT TO CHECK WITH HER

TO SEE WHAT KIND OF BUDGET I'M WORKING WITH.

YOU KNOW HOW LAST YEAR, WE WENT TO BARRETT-JACKSON?

WE TOOK THE GIRLS, HAD A GREAT TIME.

I KNOW WE WERE NERVOUS WRECKS, BUT WE BROUGHT BACK

-SOME CASH, BABY! -YES, WE DID.

THAT'S RIGHT. OKAY.

SO, I REALLY THINK THAT THIS YEAR AGAIN,

I WOULD LOVE TO BE ABLE TO BUILD A CAR,

GO TO BARRETT-JACKSON, REALLY SHOWCASE THE GARAGE.

WHAT CAR DO YOU HAVE IN MIND?

OKAY. SO, THE '62 LINCOLN,

I KNOW I SAID I WOULDN'T SELL IT. I LOVE THAT CAR.

BUT I GOT TO BE REALISTIC.

I THINK IT GIVES US A GREAT PLATFORM TO WORK WITH.

I LOVE 1962 LINCOLN CONTINENTAL CONVERTIBLE.

I BOUGHT ONE JUST A LITTLE BIT UNDER A YEAR AGO,

AND NOW IT'S TIME TO DO A FULL RESTORATION

AND BRING IT TO THE 21st CENTURY.

SO I'M THINKING THAT IF WE'RE IN THE $40,000 RANGE ...

THAT'S WAY TOO MUCH. YOU NEED TO BRING THAT DOWN.

-WAY DOWN. WAY DOWN. HALF. - $39,000, $39,000.

-SOLD! -HALF OF $40,000.

-$35,000. -NO, ABSOLUTELY NOT.

$20,000, AND THAT'S MY FINAL OFFER.

-NO. -WHY NOT?

$25,000, AND I'LL DO YOUR TESLA.

DUDE, I WILL DO ALL THE WHEELS, BLACK IT OUT,

DO SOME BLACK TRIM, MAKE IT ALL LOOK REALLY COOL.

-I KNOW YOU LOVE YOUR TESLA. -YOU GOT ME THERE.

ALL RIGHT. ALL RIGHT. COOL, COOL. SO, WE HAVE A DEAL?

SO $25,000? $25,000, OKAY.

AND I'M GOING TO DO YOUR TESLA.

-SOUNDS GOOD. -AND IT'S GOING TO LOOK SO GOOD,

-SO PRETTY, JUST LIKE YOU. -I'M EXCITED.

HONEY, YOU LOOK NICE, HONEY,

-LIKE CHEERLEADER. -SELL IT WELL. OH, GOD.

HONEY, YOU LOOK LIKE MODEL, HONEY.

-STOP. -

SO BARRETT-JACKSON IS ONE OF THE BEST AUCTIONS AROUND.

IN 9 DAYS, OVER 320,000 PEOPLE

WATCH CARS GO ON THE AUCTION BLOCK.

THEY SELL EVERYTHING, FROM THE $30,000 CAR

TO A $5 MILLION SHELBY COBRA.

AND I WANT IN ON SOME OF THAT ACTION.

NOW I HAVE A BUDGET.

IT'S TIME TO DEVELOP A GOOD, CREATIVE IDEA

THAT WOULD DOUBLE OR MAYBE TRIPLE MY MONEY.

1962 LINCOLN,

IT'S SUCH AN ICONIC CAR,

WITH ITS SUICIDE DOORS, CONVERTIBLE ROOF.

IF DONE RIGHT, PEOPLE WILL BE THROWING MONEY AT THIS THING.

SO WE NEED TO RESTORE IT TO ITS ORIGINAL LOOK

BUT ALSO GIVE IT A NICE, MODERN TWIST.

THE WHEELS HAVE TO BE VERY UNIQUE.

THAT WOULD LOOK AMAZING.

THE CAR LOOKS THE BEST WITH THE TOP DOWN,

SO THIS INTERIOR NEEDS TO BE ABSOLUTELY CLEAN.

LET'S MAKE THE INTERIOR HEATHER GREEN.

100% LEATHER, WOOD PANELS THROUGHOUT,

AND MAKING SURE THAT IT MAINTAINS ITS CLASSIC LOOK.

DEFINITELY WANT TO DO THE PAINT,

AND I WANT TO DO IT FOREST GREEN.

THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT.

WHO DOESN'T LOVE GREEN AND LOVE MONEY?

YEAH, BABY. BARRETT-JACKSON, BABY!

ALL THE EXPOSURE, ALL THE PEOPLE.

-AND SOLD! -SOLD!

THAT'S WHAT I WANT, RIGHT THERE.

Victor: THAT LINCOLN'S BEEN SITTING OUT THERE FOR YEARS,

BUT I THINK OVERALL, IT'S IN REAL GOOD SHAPE.

WE HOOKED UP THE BODYWORK A FEW YEARS BACK,

BUT I THINK THE INTERIOR IS GOING TO NEED A LOT OF LOVE.

FINDING THE PARTS TO A '62 LINCOLN, IT WASN'T EASY.

SO WHILE I WAIT FOR THE PARTS TO ARRIVE,

I'M GOING TO HAVE EDDIE START PREPPING THE CAR

AND GETTING IT READY FOR PAINT.

Eddie: THIS IS A 1962 LINCOLN CONTINENTAL,

VERY FAMOUS FOR THE JOHN F. KENNEDY ASSASSINATION.

THE CAR IS IN GREAT SHAPE, JUST LIKE ME.

WE'RE GOING TO MASK IT UP

AND HAVE VICTOR THROW A NICE PAINT JOB ON IT.

A FLY IN THE PAINT BOOTH,

THEY ALWAYS WANT TO LAND ON THE HOOD.

OR THOSE LITTLE MITES, THOSE LITTLE FLIES,

THE LITTLE, SMALL ONES, THEY'LL LAND ON THE HOOD,

AND THEY'LL JUST START SWIMMING IN IT.

Victor: THIS CAR IS GOING TO BE SEEN BY THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE

AT BARRETT-JACKSON.

SO I HAVE TO BE VERY CAREFUL WITH EVERY SINGLE DETAIL,

BECAUSE RALPH IS THIS CRAZY ...

HE NITPICKS EVERYTHING.

HE'LL WALK RIGHT INTO THE PLACE AND BE LIKE,

"WHAT HAPPENED HERE? WHAT HAPPENED THERE?"

YOU LITERALLY HAVE TO GET OUT, LIKE, A MAGNIFYING GLASS

-TO SEE THOSE THINGS. -

BUT YOU KNOW WHAT? THAT'S ALWAYS A GOOD THING.

IT'S ALWAYS A GOOD THING, TO BE A PERFECTIONIST.

I DON'T BLAME HIM FOR IT. I GUESS IT BUGS ME SOMETIMES

THAT HE FINDS SOMETHING WRONG.

BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY, IT ONLY MAKES ME SHARPER.

AND I'M AT THE SHARPEST WHEN I HAVE A SPRAY GUN IN MY HAND.

THIS IS WHERE I GET MY BEST WORK DONE.

BUT ONE, RALPH ISN'T AROUND TO ANNOY ME,

AND TWO, IT'S LIKE MEDITATION TO ME.

I JUST NEED TO GET IN THE ZONE AND FOCUS.

AND I REALLY NEED TO FOCUS RIGHT NOW,

BECAUSE THE FOREST GREEN RALPH CHOSE IS VERY CHALLENGING.

GETTING THAT HINT OF MIDNIGHT IN THE GREEN

IS VERY HARD TO ACCOMPLISH.

KEEP GOING. BRING IT.

DON'T BE SCARED.

COME ON, OSCAR.

YOU BREAK, YOU BUY.

Ralph: SO, THE LINCOLN IS REALLY GOING TO SHOWCASE

THE DETAIL OF OUR WORK HERE IN THE GARAGE.

BUT THAT BEING SAID, I HAVE ANOTHER ACE IN THE HOLE

THAT I THINK WILL DO REALLY WELL AT BARRETT-JACKSON.

DUDE, ISN'T THIS THE HOTTEST THING YOU'VE EVER SEEN?

WE BUILT THIS BEL AIR ALMOST 11 YEARS AGO

FOR MY FRIEND, OSCAR.

HOW BEAUTIFUL IS THIS '56?

AND NOW HE WANTS TO SELL IT.

THIS IS REALLY, REALLY NICE.

I SCORED A DEAL WITH OSCAR.

SO I'M GOING TO COMP SOME OF THE UPGRADES

WE'RE GOING TO BE DOING. IN EXCHANGE, OSCAR HAS AGREED

TO GIVE ME A LITTLE BIT OF THE PERCENTAGE FROM THE SALE.

OPEN THE HOOD! LET ME SEE WHAT YOU GO UNDER THE HOOD!

BAM!

THAT IS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. DETAIL, DETAIL.

WHEN I TELL YOU GUYS, "THE DEVIL IS IN THE DETAILS,"

THERE WAS SO MUCH DETAIL HERE, DUDE.

THIS IS WHERE WE INTEGRATED ALL THE AIR RIDE, SUSPENSION,

AND THE TANKS INTO THE CHASSIS, DUDE.

WAY AHEAD OF ITS TIME.

ALL RIGHT. SO, YOU GOT IT?

JUST BE CAREFUL. JUST BE CAREFUL.

YOU'RE GOOD OVER HERE.

YOU'RE GOOD ON MY SIDE.

-STRAIGHTER. -STRAIGHT. STRAIGHT THIS WAY.

STAY THIS WAY. ALL THE WAY TO BAY TWO. BAY TWO.

-BAY TWO, BABY! -STOP.

STOP PLAYING AROUND LIKE THAT, RALPH.

THAT'S HOW YOU END UP IN THE HOSPITAL.

TRY IT, DUDE.

NO, I'M NOT GOING TO TRY THAT

GO. GO. GO. GO. GO. GO.

GO. GO. GO. GO. GO. GO. GO.

FREEZE!

-RIGHT THERE. -RIGHT THERE.

THIS CAR IS A CLASSIC.

THE INTERIOR IS IMMACULATE.

THERE JUST HAPPENS TO BE ONE LITTLE PROBLEM.

REMEMBER, WE MADE THIS 12 YEARS AGO.

-YOU READY? -YEAH, LET'S GO.
