1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:04,320
Speaker 1: Christ Yeah, welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell show podcast.

2
00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:07,920
Speaker 1: Last week on the show, was said, I want to

3
00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:10,239
Speaker 1: buy an old hold and I want to do it up.

4
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:11,959
Speaker 1: I want to restore it. I want to give it away.

5
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:14,760
Speaker 1: It's not really giving it away to passing it on

6
00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:18,639
Speaker 1: to the next generation. Who were sad and like a

7
00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:19,880
Speaker 1: lot of you. A couple of weeks ago and we

8
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:24,280
Speaker 1: found out that it's actually Australia's oldest museum, the Wholder

9
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:28,200
Speaker 1: Museum is closing in a couple of weeks time. These

10
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 1: aren't his cars. They're a living piece of Australian history.

11
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,720
Speaker 1: It's living history, those cars. So we want to get

12
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:38,000
Speaker 1: one and restore it to its dignity and give it away.

13
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:41,400
Speaker 1: On Monday Show, Brad Cordin said, you can have this thing,

14
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:44,760
Speaker 1: just have it for free if you do a donation

15
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:49,120
Speaker 1: for the Royal Melbourne Children's Hospital, which is a great idea,

16
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:52,159
Speaker 1: an amazing place full of amazing people. So we're going

17
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 1: to donate five thousand dollars to them. And we get

18
00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:58,279
Speaker 1: this beautiful car and it's about to arrive now. It's

19
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: a Commodore two thousand and two Commodore outside the front

20
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:03,720
Speaker 1: of the building, ready to receive it, see it for

21
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,920
Speaker 1: the first time with his own eyes, seeing history. It's

22
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 1: Jack Post Any baby, Christian, I can hear you. So

23
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 1: you're out the front Enrichmond.

24
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,200
Speaker 2: I'm standing in the driveway of the radio station. We

25
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 2: have time this perfectly. We just spoke to the tow

26
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:21,839
Speaker 2: truck driver. He is around the corner from the radio station.

27
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,400
Speaker 2: We're going to get our first eyes on our new Holden,

28
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:25,600
Speaker 2: our new baby.

29
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:28,680
Speaker 1: Where is Rio? Is he dancing out there on the streets.

30
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 2: He's next to me. Can you can dance to keep warm?

31
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:31,680
Speaker 1: OLLI?

32
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm actually doing a little bit of a jig

33
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 3: because it is freezing out here.

34
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 1: Oh what do you mean? Is this is it? What

35
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:39,759
Speaker 1: can you see? Guys?

36
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 2: The tow truck is coming down the street, but somebody's

37
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 2: reversing out of their driveway, so he's just paused so

38
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 2: we can't see it. Give us a second.

39
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 3: It's approaching. We're about fifty meters from the Holden.

40
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 2: I've got my first eyes on it, as promised. It

41
00:01:54,960 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 2: is a Holden Commodore in a delicious rusty gold in.

42
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 2: Oh my god, it's still got the air freshener dangling

43
00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 2: from the reb school. But there's duct tape on it.

44
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 2: The tars are one a piece of grasp.

45
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:13,880
Speaker 1: Now I wonder we said you're gonna have it for free.

46
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:15,800
Speaker 1: It's very dusty.

47
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 2: It's got an inch thick of You couldn't even put

48
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 2: a cloth over it.

49
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 1: Brad, shame on you. We got this two days ago.

50
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:25,800
Speaker 3: Man, it kind of looked like the looks like the

51
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:27,359
Speaker 3: windows are like not falling off.

52
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:31,120
Speaker 2: But there's a big white looking something about it coming

53
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 2: on the back of the tow truck. With the tow truck,

54
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 2: it looks like something from a crime scene. They've drenched

55
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 2: it from a lage.

56
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 1: We put a listener in that we're losing a listener.

57
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 1: That's a lawsuit waiting to happen.

58
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 2: We got a lot of work to do, but what

59
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,080
Speaker 2: it has is plenty of potential.

60
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 1: I will say.

61
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 3: We're having a lot of trouble with the tow truck

62
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 3: trying to get through our very narrow suburban boomgate.

63
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 2: You know, we're stuck in the trip.

64
00:02:56,360 --> 00:03:00,160
Speaker 1: We have stopped, you know earlier when you said we've

65
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,519
Speaker 1: tying this to perfection. The only bit we haven't turned

66
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:04,519
Speaker 1: is how to get it into the actual station in

67
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 1: the car parking spot out the front. He's reversing out.

68
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 1: Are you giving are you giving up? Or you're gonna

69
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 1: give it another? Go another go through the through the exit. Wait,

70
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 1: he's reversing a tow truck. Listeners, you need to understand

71
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 1: it is a very very narrow entrance against this radio

72
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 1: station with a boomgate as well. It's I have a

73
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:24,840
Speaker 1: needle to get that in. I mean, I was about

74
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 1: to say he's going to direct the young to hold him,

75
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 1: but it doesn't matter. I don't think you could do

76
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:29,240
Speaker 1: any more damage to it.

77
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:31,720
Speaker 2: No, the more I look at it, scratches on the

78
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 2: bumper barb. There's a dint above the driver's side wheel.

79
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 1: None of this we were made aware of on Monday,

80
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 1: where we're not by aware. Brad, if you're listening right now.

81
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 2: Trust went the last time you saw spider webs on

82
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 2: a car? Come on, you're kidding the spider worbs on it?

83
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,360
Speaker 1: Jack, give me an estimate how much would he actually

84
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 1: be happy to pay for such a thing?

85
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 2: Ah? I mean, if he drives and you're in a

86
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 2: desperate situation, I guess you could pay like a thousand bucks.

87
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: Wow, And this is our big Star Prize of the

88
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 1: next couplees. Watch out Carl and JACKIEO, because when you

89
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 1: come to Melbourne you can be dealing with shows like

90
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 1: this giving away a knack at old dusty with cobwebs,

91
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 1: holding commodore that's barely roadworthy.

92
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:18,839
Speaker 2: We are through the boom gate, all right, we're in.

93
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 2: It's here, our car is here.

94
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 1: What's from the back? What can you see from the mark?

95
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 1: Yet more rust?

96
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:28,039
Speaker 2: The tobar is rusted. I mean that's just straight up

97
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 2: rust that's going to fall off any minute. That toba

98
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:35,720
Speaker 2: the number plate is good. Maybe we're trying to look

99
00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 2: for positives like.

100
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 1: That's I'm not hearing any positives at the moment. Guys.

101
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,039
Speaker 1: Maybe we should try and get a red shro for it, actually,

102
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 1: some kind of personalized plate or something we can add

103
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:45,359
Speaker 1: to it and give it away.

104
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 2: So I want to shame that we're going to change

105
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:49,159
Speaker 2: the number plate because that is the newest part on

106
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,279
Speaker 2: the cars.

107
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 3: One of the side mirrors isn't taped in with duct tape,

108
00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 3: so that's a positive.

109
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 1: Oh wow, okay, yeah, all right, so a lot of work,

110
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 1: some work at lots of work.

111
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 2: I mean, well, yeah, this isn't ready to be given

112
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 2: away as a prize if for at least three weeks.

113
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 1: Well, I hope that guy the GM of ACM Autobots

114
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 1: is still listening. That offer feels like we're going to

115
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 1: need an entirely new car on every single component.

116
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 2: This is the Christian o'connells Show podcast
