And uh, I say that 39 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:19,359 Speaker 1: in all sincerity. And she's somebody from the movie that 40 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 1: probably shaped my life.

I thank you. 45 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:35,959 Speaker 1: I heard that you liked my car. I think that 46 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 1: it was really cool. Would yeah, that was that was 47 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,239 Speaker 1: kind of it. Um, but American Graffiti, you know, I 48 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:45,639 Speaker 1: saw that. I was sixteen years old. Now I have 49 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 1: to I have to backtrack a little bit. My father 50 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,919 Speaker 1: passed when out early in life. I was eleven years old, 51 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: my dad, and um, you know, I was that lost 52 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 1: little kid. And I started taking apart things mechanical and 53 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: and and playing around and I got to be pretty 54 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:01,360 Speaker 1: good at things. And when it's fifteen, my mother came 55 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: out and she said, you've taken all this stuff a 56 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: party to start putting something together or making a career. 57 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 1: And um, it was at that moment. A year later 58 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 1: American Graffiti came out. We saw that black fifty five. Yeah, 59 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 1: and I hear and I see your car right there 60 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 1: at a direct replica, and I think it's better than fols. 61 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,679 Speaker 1: So what do you what does it mean? When uh, well, 62 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,920 Speaker 1: Falfas was a field car, wasn't it. Yeah? Yeah, we 63 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 1: won't say why though, this is Family Radio. Uh, you know, 64 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 1: and that's a true story about you, about me forty 65 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 1: years later? Does that actually came out in nineteen seventy three? 66 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,120 Speaker 1: We shot it in seventy two, And uh, it's the 67 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 1: best hot rod film of all time? I'm told that 68 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 1: all the time, and I believe it. You know, it's 69 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 1: been drummed into my head that it's the best. Do 70 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 1: you ever get tired of talking about? Never? How does 71 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 1: it feel to be part of something that saw the 72 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 1: story that I bask in the glory? I really do. 73 00:03:55,440 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: I love the film I love you know. Without American 74 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 1: Graffiti George being the success, it could have been a dud. 75 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: You know. In fact, Universal Pictures thought it was drive 76 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: in movie quality only, and um, you know that that 77 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: wouldn't have done very well. And but um, without American Graffiti, 78 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,719 Speaker 1: George Lucas wouldn't be the billionaire is today because he 79 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 1: wouldn't have gone on to do Star Wars. And could 80 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 1: you imagine a world without Star Wars? That would be hideous? 81 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 1: What fun? Would it be? No fun? But anyway, American 82 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:33,839 Speaker 1: Graffiti is really admired and loved by so many people, 83 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: And like you, a lot of people got their inspiration 84 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,839 Speaker 1: to go into the field of car repair, cars, pins driving, 85 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 1: car collecting, customizing. You know, it's an inspiration to to 86 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 1: a ton of people. Rights. It speaks to us, it does. 87 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 1: And you know, I've been to Japan with the film 88 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 1: and the Japanese love it. And I've been to Sweden 89 00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 1: and you're you know, I hear in Australia there's a 90 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:06,360 Speaker 1: huge car shows and it's really affected a lot of hobbyists. 91 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 1: And also you know those uh that music in the film, 92 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 1: those those people's careers were pretty much quiet and over 93 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,280 Speaker 1: with because you know it was now that the seventies, 94 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 1: the Beatles a whole different sound in that red what 95 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 1: is that? And and it revived those careers and created 96 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,279 Speaker 1: oldise stations and all that. So it was good for 97 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 1: a lot of people. He included, Well, right now, I 98 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: understand during the filming the you filmed the first couple 99 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 1: of nights in one city, Well we got kicked out 100 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,160 Speaker 1: and you got kicked out. Yeah, there's that guy complained 101 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 1: that owned a bar that we were blocking his business 102 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:50,280 Speaker 1: because we were shot at night. So it stands to reason. 103 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: But you know that was samra Fell and much to 104 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: Saafel's regret. We moved over to Pedaluma, California, and Pedaluma 105 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:01,160 Speaker 1: takes all the credit. They have a huge hot rod 106 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 1: show there. It's been going on for ten years. You know, 107 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 1: Modesto has a big one. There's so many American Graffiti shows. 108 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 1: It's it's just really great. Any of the cast members 109 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 1: all the time. Both Hopkins and I've done a ton 110 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 1: of shows together, Paula, mattuh Cindy Williams Toe doesn't do 111 00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:24,039 Speaker 1: shows though. He's just not into it. And plus he's 112 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 1: a director and he wants to be by the phone 113 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: to accept all those directing jobs. So it's just, you know, 114 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 1: some people interact really well with the public and some 115 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 1: people just not. You don't do it. And I already 116 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:38,479 Speaker 1: know the answer to this question, but I didn't ask 117 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 1: it anyway. So we did American graffiti, and we did 118 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 1: more American graffiti, which kind of didn't do well at 119 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,360 Speaker 1: the box hole. No, I love it more. They wanted more, 120 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 1: The fans wanted more the same. They wanted it to 121 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 1: just pick up where it left off, and it just 122 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 1: got too serious. You know, Vietnam, and you know, Debbie 123 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 1: was like working in a strip joint. But anyway, Um, 124 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: it just got too serious. And Ron and and Ron 125 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 1: Howard and Cindy Williams characters were bickering and on the 126 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 1: verge of divorce, and it was just too much for everyone. 127 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 1: And you know, people come up to me and say 128 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 1: they had to do another American graffiti as you guys, 129 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 1: as you are now, Like nobody wants to see that. 130 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 1: I want to see us as teenagers, you know, well, yeah, 131 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 1: they want to see us on walkers and you know, 132 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: having heart bypass surgery. Forget it. They want to see 133 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 1: us having all the fun times and memories like drinking 134 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: and smunn cigarette, hanging out.

Two shots? How long did it take? 137 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: Beats me? I didn't, you know, if I didn't have 138 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 1: to work, I certainly didn't show up. You know, the 139 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 1: night shifts. I don't know if you've ever worked all night, 140 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 1: but it is not easy. So if you didn't have 141 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,080 Speaker 1: to work, you didn't go watch really well, the Little 142 00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: Life done on television.

You have to be here and be immersed 376 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 1: in it to really appreciate what's going on. But there's 377 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:33,639 Speaker 1: all facets and all sorts of things going on all 378 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 1: ways that the car culture is covered.

Um, when we 384 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:55,480 Speaker 1: started this conversation, I found you out in the parking lot. Um. 385 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:57,920 Speaker 1: I said to you, how did you get into this? Well? 386 00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 1: Your words to me were, I started collecting matchbox cars 387 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:05,159 Speaker 1: as a kid, That is correct, and I still have 388 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:08,960 Speaker 1: them the same matchbox. Yeah, be careful, I think fast. 389 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 1: Harry is gonna want to talk to you when you 390 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:14,720 Speaker 1: come off air, because um, he's the matchbox kin. So 391 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 1: you went as a little kid, a little and for 392 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 1: those that may not know or remember, match boxes with 393 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 1: those little die cast cars in the in the boxes, 394 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:25,439 Speaker 1: and then they had cases and and now you're an 395 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:30,360 Speaker 1: adult and you're still kind of collecting match boxes, aren't you? Yes, 396 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:33,400 Speaker 1: that's that's correct. It's a lot more expensive right now. Yeah, 397 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 1: to do this. M do you ever sort of stand 398 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 1: there in the in the in the middle of the facility. 399 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 1: How big is the facility that you currently have right now? 400 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 1: We're about square feet uh, which we're actually looking to 401 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 1: expand shortly. Business is good, Business is very good. Yeah. 402 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,359 Speaker 1: Well you could see how many cars that are people 403 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 1: need storage so and and do you ever stand there 404 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,159 Speaker 1: in the middle of all that and think if it 405 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 1: was only all mine? Oh, all the time? Yeah, I 406 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 1: mean it's it's like a kid in a candy store. 407 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:07,240 Speaker 1: I mean I I stand there and actually it's actually 408 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 1: probably the best thing for me. It's it's the safest 409 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 1: thing to keep my family happy, is that I can 410 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,359 Speaker 1: stare at other people's cars. They don't have to be mine. 411 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:16,160 Speaker 1: Do you ever hope that somebody can't pay the bill 412 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:18,639 Speaker 1: for storage and you get to retain the possessions? No, 413 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:22,159 Speaker 1: I don't hope that, actually why because then you have 414 00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:25,080 Speaker 1: another one? Right? All chances are the vehicle that is 415 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 1: left there probably no one wants how many how many 416 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:30,880 Speaker 1: vehicles are in the facility, anyone give them time? Then? Um, 417 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 1: during the wintertime, we get about thirty five to forty 418 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,880 Speaker 1: cars there. How many of those forty cars are customers 419 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,000 Speaker 1: and how many are years? You know, everybody asked me 420 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:42,879 Speaker 1: that question and I can't imagine why. Uh well, a 421 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:44,920 Speaker 1: good portion of them are mine, but I also have 422 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 1: other facilities to store my cars. I guess unfortunately mine 423 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 1: or the first to go. So what what's your favorite 424 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,320 Speaker 1: car in in the match fleet? Well? I have a 425 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 1: nineteen fifty seven Chevy Nomad and it's a very original car. 426 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 1: Of the interior is percent original, still has the original 427 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,920 Speaker 1: uh plastic sea covering over it. But what makes the 428 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 1: car super unique is that it is a fuel injection car. 429 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:12,920 Speaker 1: Oh wait a minute, Oh this is that Matt. Oh, 430 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:15,439 Speaker 1: now I know who this is. I didn't realize who 431 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:18,119 Speaker 1: this was. Okay, I know the whole story behind this 432 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 1: was the car with the original fifty seven fuel injection 433 00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:24,600 Speaker 1: that's some sort of been hand assembled and uh correct, Yeah, okay, 434 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:27,400 Speaker 1: is this car here today? It is not here. Um, 435 00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:30,120 Speaker 1: I just didn't want to bring it where we're located. 436 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 1: We're located on the grass and this car is one 437 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 1: of those cars you don't want to leave outside for 438 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,480 Speaker 1: too long. So I did bring one of our other cars, 439 00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:40,919 Speaker 1: which would be another fifty seventhe Chevy Bell Air hardtop coope. 440 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:43,160 Speaker 1: So if you were going to design this car show, 441 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 1: you would have everybody in a bubble with air conditioning 442 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:49,159 Speaker 1: if I could, yes, and a giant D humidifier. UM, 443 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 1: so let's talk about that a little bit. You design 444 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 1: this facility for storage, correct, What does that look like 445 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 1: on the inside? Is it just you know, is at 446 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 1: a parking garage with with three storage lifts ors or 447 00:22:57,880 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 1: more to it than um, we actually don't have a 448 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:03,919 Speaker 1: lifts at this time. When I speak with customers, they 449 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 1: seemed to kind of shrug at the idea of having 450 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 1: their vehicle either on a lift or under a lift. 451 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:12,159 Speaker 1: So we'd like to keep them on the floor. And uh, 452 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:15,680 Speaker 1: you know, we're very clean facility. Everything is uh, you know, 453 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 1: there's we try to wipe up the oil because it 454 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:20,119 Speaker 1: seems like every car in there does leak. You know. 455 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:22,880 Speaker 1: A friend of mine was down south this past week 456 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:26,280 Speaker 1: at UM one of the engine builders for one of 457 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,720 Speaker 1: the NASCAR Cup teams, and he told me the story 458 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:31,199 Speaker 1: that when they walked in the building, in the door 459 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 1: to the machine shop, as they walked down a narrow hallway, 460 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 1: he felt these blasts of their you know, And he 461 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:39,880 Speaker 1: got to the end of the hallway and he said 462 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,640 Speaker 1: to the guy that was running the twists, and they said, well, 463 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,159 Speaker 1: we're blowing the dust off your clothes because you're now 464 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 1: about to enter a clean room. I think you need 465 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:50,960 Speaker 1: to get one of those. I agree, I would like 466 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:53,159 Speaker 1: to do that. You were that kind of a guy. 467 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 1: Did you have a messy room as a kid. No, 468 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,879 Speaker 1: I'm very neat. Yeah I could. I bet you are. 469 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:01,920 Speaker 1: In fact, when we have customers, uh, I have my 470 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,240 Speaker 1: very first car that I owned in uh in high school. 471 00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 1: I still hold held onto it and I showed my 472 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 1: customers this is my car since high school.

I take 475 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:21,520 Speaker 1: good care of it. I do everything to it. And 476 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 1: that's how I treat your car. And it's survived this 477 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 1: long in my hands, even as a teenager. And that's 478 00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 1: how I treat everyone's car.

Uh, well, it's super important to uh, you know, 482 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 1: battery tender or pull the pull the battery. Uh. You 483 00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 1: want to fill up the gas tank to prevent any 484 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:44,680 Speaker 1: moisture build up, or you can completely empty the tank. 485 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:48,200 Speaker 1: It's two options. Um. Also, you know you got to 486 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 1: keep those uh the tire inflated properly. Uh, make sure 487 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:54,280 Speaker 1: you don't gatin flat spots, so occasionally rotate them. If 488 00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:57,000 Speaker 1: you're storing at in your home. A big thing uh 489 00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:01,880 Speaker 1: to fight is humidity.
