And he said I had to steal two 82 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: or three a night to make enough money, you know. 83 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 2: And then they sell it to a shop shop and 84 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 2: he sells a fore every piece of the car's gone 85 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 2: you And that's that's what it is. 86 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 1: That's what it is. It's hard to sell nowadays because 87 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 1: they're all numbers. 88 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, and catalytic converter is also it's illegal to sell them, 89 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:00,839 Speaker 2: so you got it sell them as someone who knows 90 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 2: he's buying. So he's committing a crime by buying it 91 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 2: from you, so he's not going to pay you anything 92 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 2: for it. 93 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's it's a terrible thing. But you know, 94 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: up until recently, fire engines didn't have the Cadillac conversion. 95 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 1: Now they all do. What's the what's the advantage of 96 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:15,119 Speaker 1: not having. 97 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,599 Speaker 2: Well, in the old days, when emissions was not as 98 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 2: computer oriented as is now and they couldn't regulate it 99 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 2: quite as well, if you took the catalytic converter off 100 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:28,719 Speaker 2: your car, your engine ran better because it ran a 101 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,599 Speaker 2: little cooler. Uh, you know, didn't have to be quite 102 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 2: so lean, so you got better mileage and more power. 103 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:35,600 Speaker 1: Uh. 104 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 2: Fire engines have to perform at a certain standard, so 105 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 2: they were exempt for years until they came up with 106 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 2: modern more mind modern fire engines, the more up to 107 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:47,599 Speaker 2: date equipment, you know. So now now they all have 108 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 2: Catallac convert even motorcycles. 109 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: Is your garage in la or in the valley?

No, I like I call Michel. Yeah, 119 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 1: I have a Michael. Is the whole garage and everything 120 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:19,279 Speaker 1: expensive to ensure it's gotta be duh. Yeah, like hundreds 121 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,479 Speaker 1: of thousands of dollars. Yeah, that's probably correct. Yeah, but 122 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 1: that's fair to say you never sell a car. No, no, 123 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 1: I just like you ever buy him anymore. Yeah, you're 124 00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 1: still buying cars, you know something. I watch horders and go. 125 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 1: I don't see the problem. I mean there's still a 126 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,920 Speaker 1: path to the bedroom. Look, you can get the guy 127 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,159 Speaker 1: can get into the bathroom. Look you just go around 128 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: to the. 129 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 2: Thing, you know. 130 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, No, I don't know. You have electric cars. I 131 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,280 Speaker 1: do have an electric. I got a nineteen oh nine 132 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:45,039 Speaker 1: Baker Electric. 133 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 2: I got a nineteen fteen to try elect They had 134 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 2: electric before you had gas. In fact, the year nineteen 135 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 2: oh seven eight nine, a third of the cars were steam, 136 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 2: a third were electric, and a third were gas. And 137 00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 2: there was a battle which one was going to win. 138 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 2: And we're kind of go on through that now. I 139 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:02,839 Speaker 2: think the next big player is going to be hydrogen. 140 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:04,039 Speaker 2: That'll be the next one to come. 141 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: I didn't know this until recently. I was watching YouTuber TikTok, 142 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 1: where I go all my information from. But the Brownstones 143 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 1: in Manhattan were built up three or four feet and 144 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 1: you had stairs because when they were built, the streets 145 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 1: were all filled with horse crap, that's right, and people 146 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:20,600 Speaker 1: were tired of that. 147 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 2: That's where there were dashboard comes. Dash was another word 148 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 2: for manure. Oh, So they would put a board in front, 149 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,160 Speaker 2: so when the horses kicked up manure, it would hit 150 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 2: the board, it would hit the dashboard. 151 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:33,039 Speaker 1: Absolutely. 152 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:36,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. So then then then cars came on, and then 153 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 2: you had an engine in front. Now the dashboard obviously 154 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:40,479 Speaker 2: just holds the gauges right. 155 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 1: And as you said, I think last time you were 156 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,599 Speaker 1: on there was it was a great trade off from 157 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 1: you know, the horses filled with you know, horse crap, 158 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 1: and the alternative was a puff of blue smoke. That's right. 159 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,280 Speaker 2: I mean that seemed like, oh, this is so much 160 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,279 Speaker 2: better than having six tons of manure in your sixty 161 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,280 Speaker 2: tons of manure every day in New York City. 162 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 1: Do you remember your dad probably did this, maybe your grandfather. 163 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:03,160 Speaker 1: My grandfather used to do this in Cleveland when he 164 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,559 Speaker 1: would go to change the oil in his car, he'd 165 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:09,080 Speaker 1: put two tires up on the curb and then undo 166 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,120 Speaker 1: the this you know, the screw there this, you know, 167 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 1: the spiggot or whatever old the oil and then the 168 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 1: oil goes right into the gutter. Yeah. Yeah, it goes 169 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 1: back to the earth where it came from. 170 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 6: That's it. 171 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's what we were saying. It goes right back. 172 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 1: That's the beauty of it goes back to the earth. 173 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 7: You see. 174 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 1: It's a recycling Yeah.
