1
00:00:02,002 --> 00:00:02,970
JERSEY: So, dude,
it's your birthday.

2
00:00:03,070 --> 00:00:04,638
MIKE: I know. I don't want
to talk about it, man.

3
00:00:04,805 --> 00:00:05,572
JERSEY: Happy birthday, man.

4
00:00:05,672 --> 00:00:06,974
MIKE: I don't want to.
I'm in the club.

5
00:00:07,074 --> 00:00:08,408
JERSEY: Dude, you're in
the club now. I know.

6
00:00:08,508 --> 00:00:09,476
I'm 61 and you're 60 now, man.

7
00:00:09,643 --> 00:00:10,911
MIKE: I know man.
JERSEY: The sixes.

8
00:00:11,078 --> 00:00:13,347
MIKE: I know. I need to
celebrate it. I just...

9
00:00:13,514 --> 00:00:15,182
JERSEY: It's a privilege
getting old. You know what?

10
00:00:15,349 --> 00:00:16,483
Because we know more.

11
00:00:16,583 --> 00:00:18,385
I'm realizing that
I'm the mentor.

12
00:00:18,552 --> 00:00:20,487
I had old guys that
I would talk to.

13
00:00:20,621 --> 00:00:22,356
Now I'm the old guy.
MIKE: Yeah.

14
00:00:22,456 --> 00:00:23,657
JERSEY: It's funny because now
they're asking me

15
00:00:23,824 --> 00:00:24,658
for my advice.

16
00:00:24,825 --> 00:00:26,860
MIKE: On what?
JERSEY: Like finishes, man.

17
00:00:27,027 --> 00:00:28,996
Like how to get that aged finish
on a piece of furniture.

18
00:00:29,096 --> 00:00:30,964
MIKE: Oh. Like the chemicals.
JERSEY: I got some recipes.

19
00:00:31,064 --> 00:00:34,635
I got mason jars filled
with really cool stuff.

20
00:00:34,735 --> 00:00:36,904
MIKE: Okay, so you're like
the warlock of wood.

21
00:00:37,070 --> 00:00:38,238
JERSEY: And also metal.

22
00:00:38,338 --> 00:00:40,207
MIKE: What's the weirdest thing
you put on a piece of metal

23
00:00:40,307 --> 00:00:41,241
to age it?

24
00:00:41,341 --> 00:00:42,676
People tell me sometimes
they just take it out

25
00:00:42,776 --> 00:00:44,244
and they pee on it.
JERSEY: What?

26
00:00:44,344 --> 00:00:46,914
MIKE: Yeah, because it, like,
it ages or puts ammonia on it.

27
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,082
JERSEY: Dude, that's a corncob
thing in Iowa, dude.

28
00:00:52,853 --> 00:00:54,922
(phone ringing)

29
00:00:57,157 --> 00:00:58,425
MIKE: Dani D, what's up?

30
00:00:58,592 --> 00:00:59,726
DANIELLE: Good morning.

31
00:00:59,826 --> 00:01:01,361
Hey, did you guys make
it across Texas yet?

32
00:01:01,461 --> 00:01:03,163
MIKE: We're right
outside of Houston.

33
00:01:03,263 --> 00:01:04,898
DANIELLE: Oh, perfect. Okay,
I'm going to send you

34
00:01:05,065 --> 00:01:07,200
to meet Erline
and her son, Jesse.

35
00:01:07,301 --> 00:01:11,705
So Erline's late husband, Jesse
Sr., was a major collector.

36
00:01:11,872 --> 00:01:14,708
This dude collected so much.
He collected bikes and--

37
00:01:14,875 --> 00:01:17,077
MIKE: Motorcycles or bicycles?
DANIELLE: Bicycles.

38
00:01:17,177 --> 00:01:18,712
JERSEY: Cool.
MIKE: What time period?

39
00:01:18,879 --> 00:01:20,881
DANIELLE: Babe, I have no idea.
That's your job.

40
00:01:20,981 --> 00:01:22,716
I find the addresses.
I send you there.

41
00:01:22,883 --> 00:01:24,785
You find the stuff.
You tell me what it is.

42
00:01:24,952 --> 00:01:25,986
MIKE: Okay.

43
00:01:26,153 --> 00:01:28,355
DANIELLE: So Jesse Sr. actually
ran the family business.

44
00:01:28,455 --> 00:01:30,524
That is three generations

45
00:01:30,624 --> 00:01:32,159
of selling window
treatments and blinds.

46
00:01:32,259 --> 00:01:33,760
MIKE: Oh, wow.
JERSEY: Okay, cool.

47
00:01:33,860 --> 00:01:36,029
DANIELLE: But on the side,
his passion really was art.

48
00:01:36,196 --> 00:01:38,598
This man created art
out of anything he could find.

49
00:01:38,699 --> 00:01:41,034
He'd find something, and then he
would make found art out of it.

50
00:01:41,134 --> 00:01:43,470
Shadow boxes. He painted.

51
00:01:43,637 --> 00:01:45,105
This dude would take
an old vacuum cleaner

52
00:01:45,272 --> 00:01:46,239
and make a robot out of it.

53
00:01:46,406 --> 00:01:47,608
JERSEY: Wow, I love robots.

54
00:01:47,708 --> 00:01:49,009
DANIELLE: Yeah, it's all really
cool stuff,

55
00:01:49,109 --> 00:01:51,511
but the best part is,
the most exciting part for you?

56
00:01:51,678 --> 00:01:52,846
His passion was bicycles.

57
00:01:52,946 --> 00:01:54,114
MIKE: Awesome.
JERSEY: Cool, cool. Awesome.

58
00:01:54,281 --> 00:01:55,482
DANIELLE:
You're not going to believe

59
00:01:55,582 --> 00:01:56,950
all of the bike parts
this guy has.

60
00:01:57,050 --> 00:01:58,118
Because not only did he

61
00:01:58,218 --> 00:02:00,487
create artwork
with these found parts,

62
00:02:00,587 --> 00:02:04,191
but he also loved bikes
just for loving bikes.

63
00:02:04,291 --> 00:02:05,726
MIKE: Yeah, yeah.

64
00:02:05,826 --> 00:02:07,861
DANIELLE: I really wish
that you would get a chance

65
00:02:08,028 --> 00:02:10,297
to meet Jesse Sr., but
unfortunately, he's passed.

66
00:02:10,464 --> 00:02:13,967
But you get to take a look
at his incredible collection.

67
00:02:14,067 --> 00:02:16,203
So they've taken the past
few years to kind of sit

68
00:02:16,303 --> 00:02:19,072
with their feelings and organize
and go through everything,

69
00:02:19,239 --> 00:02:20,874
but they're ready to sell now.

70
00:02:20,974 --> 00:02:23,043
I think you're gonna see a lot
of neat stuff in there today,

71
00:02:23,143 --> 00:02:24,644
I think you guys are
gonna have fun.

72
00:02:24,745 --> 00:02:25,879
MIKE: Awesome.
JERSEY: Sounds like it.

73
00:02:25,979 --> 00:02:27,514
MIKE: All right.
Send us the address.

74
00:02:27,614 --> 00:02:28,715
JERSEY: Thanks, Dani.
DANIELLE: Will do, guys.

75
00:02:28,882 --> 00:02:30,283
I'll see you soon. Have fun.

76
00:02:33,420 --> 00:02:35,822
(energetic music)

77
00:02:41,061 --> 00:02:42,829
JERSEY: I think it's up here.

78
00:02:42,996 --> 00:02:44,631
MIKE: This is it, right here.

79
00:02:44,798 --> 00:02:46,600
JERSEY: I'm going
to grab a flyer.

80
00:02:47,034 --> 00:02:48,635
(honk, honk)

81
00:02:50,137 --> 00:02:52,072
MIKE: Alright. Look at that.

82
00:02:52,239 --> 00:02:54,041
It's got red, white,
and blue on it, man.

83
00:02:54,141 --> 00:02:55,642
JERSEY: Yeah, man.
That's a beautiful truck.

84
00:02:55,742 --> 00:02:57,344
MIKE: Hey, hey.
JERSEY: Hello.

85
00:02:57,511 --> 00:02:59,079
MIKE: Are you Jesse?
JESSE: Yeah. Hey. Welcome.

86
00:02:59,179 --> 00:03:00,747
MIKE: I'm Mike.
This is Jersey John.

87
00:03:00,914 --> 00:03:02,482
JERSEY: How are you, man?
JESSE: Jersey John, Jesse.

88
00:03:02,582 --> 00:03:03,950
JERSEY: How are you?
Nice to meet you.

89
00:03:04,117 --> 00:03:05,285
MIKE: Nice to meet you, man.
Flyer, Jersey.

90
00:03:05,385 --> 00:03:07,154
JERSEY: Hello.
ERLINE: Oh, hi.

91
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:08,789
MIKE: Hi, I'm Mike.
ERLINE: Hi, Erline.

92
00:03:08,889 --> 00:03:10,924
MIKE: Erline, nice to meet
you. This is Jersey Jon.

93
00:03:11,024 --> 00:03:12,759
JERSEY: Hi, I'm Jon.
ERLINE: Hey, good to meet you.

94
00:03:12,859 --> 00:03:15,562
MIKE: I know, Danielle probably
went over some of this stuff.

95
00:03:15,662 --> 00:03:19,466
You know, anything from early
Halloween, to rugs, to wagons.

96
00:03:19,633 --> 00:03:20,834
Jersey loves wagons.

97
00:03:20,934 --> 00:03:22,469
He works on wood.
He's a wood guy.

98
00:03:22,636 --> 00:03:23,837
ERLINE: Okay. Okay.

99
00:03:23,937 --> 00:03:26,173
MIKE: Yeah, Dani was saying that
your husband was an artist.

100
00:03:26,273 --> 00:03:27,474
ERLINE: Yes.

101
00:03:27,641 --> 00:03:30,243
MIKE: She said he was doing
something with vacuum cleaners.

102
00:03:30,343 --> 00:03:31,812
JERSEY: Robots.
Like robots and stuff.

103
00:03:31,912 --> 00:03:32,879
ERLINE: Yeah,
rocketeer backpacks.

104
00:03:32,979 --> 00:03:34,147
MIKE: Oh, is that what
he was doing?

105
00:03:34,314 --> 00:03:37,150
ERLINE: Art was his passion,
but it's not something

106
00:03:37,317 --> 00:03:38,285
he wanted to do for work.

107
00:03:38,385 --> 00:03:40,687
He said, "It gives me
more joy as a hobby

108
00:03:40,821 --> 00:03:43,256
versus having to bring revenue
and income to the family,

109
00:03:43,423 --> 00:03:44,391
the stress of that."

110
00:03:44,491 --> 00:03:46,793
And our best friends
are in the vacuum business,

111
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,663
so he would go by there,
"Got any cool vacuum parts?"

112
00:03:49,830 --> 00:03:50,964
MIKE: Yeah. So what's
going on with this?

113
00:03:51,064 --> 00:03:52,599
JERSEY: What's with this truck?
Yeah, this truck is cool.

114
00:03:52,699 --> 00:03:53,967
It's a '46?

115
00:03:54,067 --> 00:03:56,603
ERLINE: Well, because of
the war, the title is a '47.

116
00:03:56,703 --> 00:03:58,205
MIKE: He painted this
and everything?

117
00:03:58,305 --> 00:03:59,473
ERLINE: He did everything.

118
00:03:59,639 --> 00:04:01,274
MIKE: Okay. In this shop,
he painted it in here?

119
00:04:01,441 --> 00:04:03,110
JERSEY: This GMC
pickup truck is beautiful.

120
00:04:03,276 --> 00:04:04,678
It's all original parts.

121
00:04:04,845 --> 00:04:07,280
There's no modifications.
I love that.

122
00:04:07,380 --> 00:04:10,617
I've got a 1946 Chevy panel
truck, so right away,

123
00:04:10,784 --> 00:04:11,752
I can relate to this guy.

124
00:04:11,918 --> 00:04:13,220
ERLINE: He was making
a service call

125
00:04:13,386 --> 00:04:14,554
to one of our
really good clients,

126
00:04:14,654 --> 00:04:17,190
and he looked across the field,
and he called me.

127
00:04:17,357 --> 00:04:18,725
He's like, "Hey."

128
00:04:18,825 --> 00:04:21,094
And I said, you know what
you're doing, buddy? Do it.

129
00:04:21,261 --> 00:04:23,230
MIKE: So would he usually
call you on any purchase?

130
00:04:23,396 --> 00:04:26,099
ERLINE: No, it didn't bother me,
because I loved what he loved.

131
00:04:26,266 --> 00:04:28,301
He always had a project
going on in the garage.

132
00:04:28,468 --> 00:04:30,437
Sometimes it was really hard to
get him to come in for dinner.

133
00:04:30,537 --> 00:04:33,573
He was always doing something
that needed to be repaired,

134
00:04:33,673 --> 00:04:35,475
worked on, that he
could bring back to life.

135
00:04:35,575 --> 00:04:37,644
JESSE: So we have the truck,
but there's other bikes in here

136
00:04:37,744 --> 00:04:39,880
that he kind of started with,
if you want to come take a look.

137
00:04:40,046 --> 00:04:42,149
MIKE: Yeah, Danielle said he
was like a major bike collector,

138
00:04:42,315 --> 00:04:43,617
and I asked her
what time period.

139
00:04:43,784 --> 00:04:45,418
She's like, "That's up to
you guys. I don't know."

140
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:48,855
JERSEY: This garage
is like bicycle mania.

141
00:04:49,022 --> 00:04:50,457
There is stuff
all over the place,

142
00:04:50,624 --> 00:04:52,759
with bicycles hanging from
the ceiling, from the rafters,

143
00:04:52,859 --> 00:04:53,660
from the walls.

144
00:04:53,827 --> 00:04:55,095
This is great.

145
00:04:55,262 --> 00:04:56,897
MIKE: Jersey, look at
that thing. The Outlaw.

146
00:04:57,063 --> 00:04:58,632
JERSEY: That's like a Briggs
& Stratton motor on there,

147
00:04:58,732 --> 00:04:59,666
like a lawnmower engine.

148
00:04:59,833 --> 00:05:02,369
MIKE: Can you pull it out?
Pull it out, Jersey.

149
00:05:02,469 --> 00:05:04,004
JERSEY: Let me see
if I can get it...

150
00:05:04,104 --> 00:05:06,239
ERLINE: It hasn't been
on the road for a long time.

151
00:05:06,339 --> 00:05:08,642
MIKE: Jersey Jon and I are both
motorcycle collectors.

152
00:05:08,742 --> 00:05:11,678
So the motorbike time period
is very interesting to us.

153
00:05:11,845 --> 00:05:14,047
There were so many different
motorcycle manufacturers

154
00:05:14,147 --> 00:05:15,382
that had a bicycle out.

155
00:05:15,549 --> 00:05:17,818
Harley Davidson, Indian,

156
00:05:17,984 --> 00:05:20,987
Flying Merkle, they were
building the bicycles

157
00:05:21,087 --> 00:05:23,790
to actually emulate
the early motorcycles.

158
00:05:23,957 --> 00:05:25,392
JERSEY:
What is the bicycle frame?

159
00:05:25,492 --> 00:05:26,593
JESSE: That's a Hiawatha.

160
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:28,161
JERSEY: Look how he built a
platform in there

161
00:05:28,261 --> 00:05:29,796
so he could have a place
to mount the motor.

162
00:05:29,896 --> 00:05:31,231
JESSE: So he built this
thing from scratch.

163
00:05:31,331 --> 00:05:32,165
ERLINE: Yes. Yes.

164
00:05:32,265 --> 00:05:33,567
JERSEY: Why did he name
it the Outlaw?

165
00:05:33,667 --> 00:05:35,268
JESSE: Our last name is Outlaw.

166
00:05:35,435 --> 00:05:37,437
JERSEY: Is it really?
MIKE: That's cool.

167
00:05:37,537 --> 00:05:39,039
JERSEY: That's unusual.
MIKE: Really?

168
00:05:39,206 --> 00:05:41,107
ERLINE: When I first met him, I
said, "That is not your name."

169
00:05:41,274 --> 00:05:42,475
MIKE: I know, right?

170
00:05:42,642 --> 00:05:44,411
ERLINE: And he always said,
"A name you can trust."

171
00:05:44,511 --> 00:05:46,846
MIKE: Yeah. (laughs)
ERLINE: The rest is history.

172
00:05:51,718 --> 00:05:53,286
(phone ringing)

173
00:05:53,386 --> 00:05:54,588
ROB: Hey, what's up, Dani D?

174
00:05:54,688 --> 00:05:57,958
DANIELLE: Robbie! Ah, how's
my lone Wolfe doing today?

175
00:05:58,058 --> 00:05:59,059
ROB: I know.

176
00:05:59,226 --> 00:06:01,161
It feels pretty good to be
on the road by myself.

177
00:06:01,261 --> 00:06:02,762
DANIELLE: You sitting there
listening to your Molly Hatchet?

178
00:06:02,862 --> 00:06:03,830
Is that keeping you company?

179
00:06:03,997 --> 00:06:05,232
ROB: No, no, no, no.

180
00:06:05,398 --> 00:06:06,566
Don't you ever just
drive down the road

181
00:06:06,666 --> 00:06:08,235
and not have the radio on?

182
00:06:08,335 --> 00:06:10,237
That's what I'm doing right
now. Complete silence.

183
00:06:10,337 --> 00:06:11,972
DANIELLE: Nah, that's
a luxury for people

184
00:06:12,072 --> 00:06:14,641
who don't have to manage
two Wolfe boys.

185
00:06:14,741 --> 00:06:16,309
I don't get quiet time.

186
00:06:16,476 --> 00:06:18,878
ROB: I got my quiet time.
So what do you got for me?

187
00:06:18,979 --> 00:06:20,647
DANIELLE: Oh, well,
I'm here to make your day then.

188
00:06:20,747 --> 00:06:22,649
I'm going to send you
to Byron Clark.

189
00:06:22,749 --> 00:06:24,551
Do you remember we picked
him like 10 years ago?

190
00:06:24,651 --> 00:06:26,886
I mean, they got a lot of stuff.
They got like a phone booth.

191
00:06:26,987 --> 00:06:28,989
They got advertising.
But here's the deal.

192
00:06:29,089 --> 00:06:30,590
Byron has doubled down.

193
00:06:30,690 --> 00:06:32,425
And when I say more,

194
00:06:32,592 --> 00:06:35,295
that guy has so many signs,
so many poles, so much.

195
00:06:35,462 --> 00:06:36,596
ROB: It's a sign pick?

196
00:06:36,696 --> 00:06:37,998
DANIELLE: This is an
advertising pick.

197
00:06:38,098 --> 00:06:39,866
ROB: You're giving this
to me, the lone Wolfe?

198
00:06:40,033 --> 00:06:41,902
DANIELLE: Yeah, Mama Colby
takes care of her Wolfe boys.

199
00:06:42,068 --> 00:06:43,970
I don't know what to tell you.
ROB: I'm loving it.

200
00:06:44,070 --> 00:06:45,272
I like a guy that doubles down.

201
00:06:45,438 --> 00:06:47,440
DANIELLE: Listen, you have fun.
Tell Byron I say hey.

202
00:06:47,540 --> 00:06:49,109
Don't throw your back out.

203
00:06:49,276 --> 00:06:52,312
ROB: Hey, listen. Try and go
get five minutes of peace today.

204
00:06:52,479 --> 00:06:54,481
Solitude. Silence is king.

205
00:06:54,581 --> 00:06:56,583
DANIELLE: Okay. Well, you have
fun. I'll take five minutes.

206
00:06:56,750 --> 00:06:58,551
I'll talk to you later.
ROB: Thanks, Dani.

207
00:06:58,718 --> 00:07:00,086
DANIELLE: Bye.
ROB: Woo!

208
00:07:06,826 --> 00:07:08,261
ROB: Coming into Delta.

209
00:07:12,332 --> 00:07:17,003
ROB: Dang. These guys got cars
and signs and gas pumps.

210
00:07:17,103 --> 00:07:20,907
Dani D took care of me. Wow.

211
00:07:24,444 --> 00:07:26,546
ROB: You Byron?
BYRON: Hey, man, I am!

212
00:07:26,713 --> 00:07:28,248
ROB: How you doing?
BYRON: What's your name?

213
00:07:28,348 --> 00:07:29,582
ROB: Rob Wolfe.
BYRON: Rob Wolfe.

214
00:07:29,749 --> 00:07:31,151
I didn't know who it was
driving up here.

215
00:07:31,318 --> 00:07:33,520
ROB: Good to see you.
I'm going to hit you with a list

216
00:07:33,620 --> 00:07:34,854
because that's got
the good stuff on it.

217
00:07:35,021 --> 00:07:36,589
BYRON: Good stuff.
Well, I got old toys,

218
00:07:36,756 --> 00:07:38,458
a little bit of fishy stuff.

219
00:07:38,625 --> 00:07:41,361
ROB: Danielle said you doubled
down the last 10 years.

220
00:07:41,461 --> 00:07:42,962
BYRON: I probably have.
ROB: It looks like it.

221
00:07:43,063 --> 00:07:46,299
Looks like you got every pole
sign in the country around here.

222
00:07:46,466 --> 00:07:47,968
What are you doing
with this thing?

223
00:07:48,068 --> 00:07:50,103
BYRON: Well, this is
a Howard Hughes truck.

224
00:07:50,270 --> 00:07:53,073
Helicopter division.
I bought it about 18 years ago.

225
00:07:53,239 --> 00:07:54,874
And this one hauled jet fuel.

226
00:08:07,153 --> 00:08:09,389
BYRON: We spent probably
$30,000, $40,000 on it,

227
00:08:09,556 --> 00:08:11,658
restoring it, and I guess we'll
keep it, wouldn't be for sale.

228
00:08:11,825 --> 00:08:14,194
Howard Hughes was a great
innovator in aviation.

229
00:08:14,361 --> 00:08:15,829
It's just a cool
piece of history.

230
00:08:15,929 --> 00:08:18,965
ROB: Wow. You aren't kidding
here. This place is packed!

231
00:08:19,065 --> 00:08:21,167
BYRON: It is. I got
a lot of junk in here.

232
00:08:21,267 --> 00:08:23,002
ROB: Wow.
So what's the obsession?

233
00:08:23,103 --> 00:08:26,406
As I'm looking around here, I'm
seeing all these Amoco signs.

234
00:08:26,506 --> 00:08:29,008
BYRON: Yeah. I bought out a
Pollock Collin's Oil Company

235
00:08:29,109 --> 00:08:31,711
in Anderson, Alabama
that started in the '30s.

236
00:08:31,878 --> 00:08:33,012
ROB: You bought out
the entire...?

237
00:08:33,113 --> 00:08:34,848
BYRON: Yes.
ROB: So it was bulk plant?

238
00:08:34,948 --> 00:08:36,182
BYRON: Bulk plant, yes.
ROB: Wow.

239
00:08:36,349 --> 00:08:37,517
What attracted you
to that brand?

240
00:08:37,617 --> 00:08:39,753
BYRON: I like the flame
and everybody else does, too.

241
00:08:39,919 --> 00:08:41,588
BYRON: I bought out
distributorships

242
00:08:41,755 --> 00:08:43,857
and probably six to eight
collections total.

243
00:08:44,024 --> 00:08:45,191
ROB: That for sale?

244
00:08:45,358 --> 00:08:46,793
BYRON: I'd sell that one,
yes, sir.

245
00:08:46,893 --> 00:08:48,628
When I bought it, this plastic

246
00:08:48,728 --> 00:08:50,964
was really not
worth a lot at all.

247
00:08:51,064 --> 00:08:52,165
ROB: It wasn't worth anything.

248
00:08:52,265 --> 00:08:53,967
BYRON: But I've hung onto it
all these years

249
00:08:54,067 --> 00:08:55,402
and accelerated prices.

250
00:08:55,502 --> 00:08:56,970
So I think $1,500 for it.

251
00:08:57,070 --> 00:08:59,773
ROB: You're pretty proud of
that piece of Lexan.

252
00:08:59,873 --> 00:09:01,441
We call that Lexan.

253
00:09:01,541 --> 00:09:03,243
Down in the South, they
call it plastic, don't they?

254
00:09:03,343 --> 00:09:05,278
BYRON: That's right. They call
it plastic. It is Lexan.

255
00:09:05,378 --> 00:09:08,248
ROB: Plastic is something
that is flimsy and breakable.

256
00:09:08,348 --> 00:09:12,185
Where Lexan came out, and it was
actually a hardened material

257
00:09:12,352 --> 00:09:14,721
in its early days, the longer
it sat in the sun, though,

258
00:09:14,821 --> 00:09:17,791
it became warped and actually
would become brittle.

259
00:09:17,957 --> 00:09:19,959
BYRON: It does have a crack back
here on that top part now.

260
00:09:20,060 --> 00:09:21,628
Uh-oh.
ROB: That's the only part.

261
00:09:21,728 --> 00:09:23,363
You know, the thing
with Lexan signs,

262
00:09:23,463 --> 00:09:25,398
I don't even know how
these survived.

263
00:09:25,498 --> 00:09:27,867
It's gotten so brittle
because of the sun.

264
00:09:27,967 --> 00:09:29,035
BYRON: Oh yeah, absolutely.

265
00:09:29,202 --> 00:09:30,670
ROB: 10 years ago, Mike
and Frank picked this place.

266
00:09:30,837 --> 00:09:32,038
MIKE: Hey, you Byron?
BYRON: I am.

267
00:09:32,138 --> 00:09:33,072
FRANK: How you doing?

268
00:09:33,239 --> 00:09:34,674
ROB: And all these Lexan signs,

269
00:09:34,774 --> 00:09:36,843
those guys probably walked
over them because back then,

270
00:09:36,943 --> 00:09:38,478
they weren't worth a lot.

271
00:09:38,578 --> 00:09:40,480
BYRON: You couldn't hardly
give them away years ago.

272
00:09:40,647 --> 00:09:42,582
ROB: Oh, this thing was worth
200 bucks on its best day.

273
00:09:42,749 --> 00:09:44,517
BYRON: That's right.
Absolutely. The best day.

274
00:09:44,617 --> 00:09:47,120
ROB: Porcelain signs have
skyrocketed through the moon.

275
00:09:47,220 --> 00:09:48,455
But earlier collectors

276
00:09:48,621 --> 00:09:51,257
are buying these
and lighting them up.

277
00:09:51,424 --> 00:09:53,660
BYRON: Well, it's different now.
People like the light-ups,

278
00:09:53,827 --> 00:09:55,628
which I like them too, but they
really like the light-ups.

279
00:09:55,728 --> 00:09:57,430
ROB: The fact that it's got
that crack in it, though.

280
00:09:57,530 --> 00:09:59,799
Look at that crack.
BYRON: Yeah, it's right there.

281
00:09:59,899 --> 00:10:02,202
And when you pull it together,
most of that hides up,

282
00:10:02,302 --> 00:10:04,504
but it does have a crack in it.
ROB: Right there. Let me see.

283
00:10:04,671 --> 00:10:06,573
BYRON: I'll discount it
because of that crack.

284
00:10:07,474 --> 00:10:09,275
What are you thinking?

285
00:10:11,077 --> 00:10:12,545
You're thinking too hard here.

286
00:10:12,712 --> 00:10:13,646
ROB: 900.

287
00:10:13,746 --> 00:10:15,982
BYRON: Oh, my goodness.

288
00:10:16,149 --> 00:10:17,350
ROB: Crack.

289
00:10:17,517 --> 00:10:20,587
BYRON: Yep. What about 1,200?
ROB: How about 1,000 bucks?

290
00:10:20,753 --> 00:10:22,722
BYRON: We'll get
the ball rolling.

291
00:10:22,822 --> 00:10:23,923
ROB: All right.

292
00:10:24,023 --> 00:10:26,025
BYRON: It made me feel
pretty good that the first item

293
00:10:26,192 --> 00:10:28,495
that we looked at, we sold it to
him, kind of broke the ice.

294
00:10:28,661 --> 00:10:29,629
That's what Frank used to say.

295
00:10:29,796 --> 00:10:31,698
ROB: All right. Cool. Thank you.

296
00:10:31,865 --> 00:10:32,632
BYRON: Yes, sir.

297
00:10:36,436 --> 00:10:37,437
MIKE: What have you guys decided
to do with something like this?

298
00:10:37,604 --> 00:10:39,506
I mean, this is something
that he created.

299
00:10:39,672 --> 00:10:41,074
You said he was an artist.

300
00:10:41,241 --> 00:10:43,276
I mean, this,
to me, this is art.

301
00:10:43,376 --> 00:10:44,544
JESSE: That's kind
of this whole area

302
00:10:44,711 --> 00:10:47,280
is stuff that he found
and go ahead and fix it up

303
00:10:47,447 --> 00:10:49,682
and make it an
envision that he had.

304
00:10:49,782 --> 00:10:51,618
MIKE: I'm excited that her
husband was a bicycle guy

305
00:10:51,784 --> 00:10:52,952
and an artist.

306
00:10:53,052 --> 00:10:54,954
Because when I look
at my bike collection,

307
00:10:55,054 --> 00:10:57,223
I look at it as industrial art.

308
00:10:57,390 --> 00:10:59,993
The lines,
the colors, the design.

309
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:03,363
It's function and form joined
together in a beautiful way.

310
00:11:03,463 --> 00:11:05,832
So have you guys decided what
you're going to do with this?

311
00:11:05,999 --> 00:11:08,968
JESSE: Not really. I mean, my
dad passed away four years ago.

312
00:11:09,068 --> 00:11:11,404
ERLINE: He was the best husband.

313
00:11:11,504 --> 00:11:15,008
He brought joy and laughter
to all occasions.

314
00:11:15,108 --> 00:11:18,444
It was an honor and privilege
to have 39-plus years with him.

315
00:11:18,545 --> 00:11:19,712
We still miss him every day.

316
00:11:19,879 --> 00:11:21,314
JESSE: There's a lot of
sentimental value

317
00:11:21,481 --> 00:11:22,949
to certain pieces,
but not everything.

318
00:11:23,116 --> 00:11:24,551
JESSE: The Outlaw Bike
is a creation,

319
00:11:24,651 --> 00:11:26,286
not necessarily a restoration.

320
00:11:26,386 --> 00:11:28,721
And that's probably why we
won't look to sell right now.

321
00:11:28,821 --> 00:11:30,790
ERLINE: What's really cool is
the history on these things.

322
00:11:30,890 --> 00:11:31,991
MIKE: Yeah, the Corvettes.

323
00:11:32,158 --> 00:11:34,194
ERLINE: All the lights,
the Delta, the Rocket Ray.

324
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,063
MIKE: Look at you. I love that
you just said Rocket Ray.

325
00:11:37,230 --> 00:11:38,565
aJERSEY: There's
a selection of bikes here

326
00:11:38,665 --> 00:11:40,800
from a lot of
different eras of bicycling.

327
00:11:40,900 --> 00:11:42,368
MIKE: This is kind of
like all the motorbike era,

328
00:11:42,468 --> 00:11:43,670
what they called.

329
00:11:43,836 --> 00:11:45,171
And then they got
into balloon tires.

330
00:11:45,271 --> 00:11:46,506
JERSEY: But what
I'm not seeing yet

331
00:11:46,673 --> 00:11:47,507
is a lot of
turn-of-the-century bikes.

332
00:11:47,674 --> 00:11:49,242
That's the stuff I really love,

333
00:11:49,342 --> 00:11:51,477
because it has a connection
with early motorcycles.

334
00:11:51,578 --> 00:11:53,313
MIKE: This is what
they call a B10E.

335
00:11:53,479 --> 00:11:55,949
This was actually Schwinn's
first balloon tire bike.

336
00:11:56,115 --> 00:11:58,351
It was a big transition because
they were coming from

337
00:11:58,451 --> 00:12:01,020
a metal-clad wood rim,
or metal rim.

338
00:12:01,187 --> 00:12:02,388
ERLINE: Right. Yeah, yeah.

339
00:12:02,488 --> 00:12:05,925
MIKE: With a pneumatic tire that
was a tube and a tire in one.

340
00:12:06,025 --> 00:12:08,161
And then they went
to this balloon tire,

341
00:12:08,261 --> 00:12:09,762
and it was a big game-changer.

342
00:12:09,862 --> 00:12:12,498
The exciting thing
about the Schwinn B10E

343
00:12:12,665 --> 00:12:14,067
is that it was Ignatius
Schwinn's

344
00:12:14,234 --> 00:12:15,969
first balloon tire bicycle.

345
00:12:16,069 --> 00:12:18,972
It was a smaller wheel,
but a fatter tire.

346
00:12:19,072 --> 00:12:21,374
This is 1933, 1934.

347
00:12:21,474 --> 00:12:23,943
They were trying to emulate
the motorcycles at that time.

348
00:12:24,110 --> 00:12:26,479
And then this has
a toolbox tank on it

349
00:12:26,579 --> 00:12:28,481
where the tank
actually opens up.

350
00:12:28,648 --> 00:12:30,083
ERLINE: That's amazing.

351
00:12:30,183 --> 00:12:31,784
MIKE: And if you look across
here, there's another one

352
00:12:31,951 --> 00:12:32,885
that's got a toolbox tank,

353
00:12:32,986 --> 00:12:34,921
and another one
that's got a toolbox tank.

354
00:12:35,021 --> 00:12:37,390
There's a Deluxe.
And then this one's a Hawthorne.

355
00:12:37,557 --> 00:12:39,592
What's interesting
about the Deluxe

356
00:12:39,759 --> 00:12:41,828
is it's got the Western Union
badge on the front of it.

357
00:12:41,995 --> 00:12:44,764
So that's a crossover, and
that's got a larger tank on it.

358
00:12:44,864 --> 00:12:47,367
The tank on the bike
wasn't just a dead space.

359
00:12:47,467 --> 00:12:49,402
There was a door on the side,
you could carry a comic book,

360
00:12:49,502 --> 00:12:51,671
carry your baseball cards,
you could carry tools.

361
00:12:51,838 --> 00:12:53,406
That's what's so cool
about these bikes.

362
00:12:53,506 --> 00:12:55,208
Was this a bike
that he restored?

363
00:12:55,308 --> 00:12:57,043
ERLINE: Yes, I believe so.

364
00:12:57,143 --> 00:12:58,811
MIKE: Okay. He cared to have
someone do the saddle correctly.

365
00:12:58,911 --> 00:12:59,879
ERLINE: Correct.

366
00:13:00,046 --> 00:13:01,414
MIKE: It's got
a different rim on it.

367
00:13:01,514 --> 00:13:02,982
This is not the correct pedal.

368
00:13:03,149 --> 00:13:05,084
The paint job on this bike
is nowhere near

369
00:13:05,184 --> 00:13:06,986
what it would have
been originally.

370
00:13:07,153 --> 00:13:09,155
It's not a correct restoration.
ERLINE: Okay. Not museum...

371
00:13:09,255 --> 00:13:10,156
MIKE: That's not museum quality.

372
00:13:10,256 --> 00:13:11,991
That's why I think he
was restoring stuff.

373
00:13:12,091 --> 00:13:13,426
JESSE: He wanted to ride it.

374
00:13:13,593 --> 00:13:15,361
MIKE: He wanted to ride it,
he wanted to get it done,

375
00:13:15,461 --> 00:13:16,629
he wanted it to be presentable.
The B10E,

376
00:13:16,796 --> 00:13:19,098
it's an interesting bike,
and it's a historical bike,

377
00:13:19,265 --> 00:13:22,201
but again, he built it
and restored it as a rider.

378
00:13:22,335 --> 00:13:25,171
So I would do seven on this one,

379
00:13:25,271 --> 00:13:26,973
seven on that one,

380
00:13:27,073 --> 00:13:29,676
350 on this one.

381
00:13:29,776 --> 00:13:31,544
That's, what, 1,750.

382
00:13:31,711 --> 00:13:35,281
ERLINE: I think the best I could
do for all three would be 2,200.

383
00:13:37,650 --> 00:13:38,685
MIKE: That one at 350...

384
00:13:38,785 --> 00:13:40,953
ERLINE: It's kind of low.
MIKE: Not really.

385
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:43,122
The Hawthorne Flyer
has the wrong wheels on it,

386
00:13:43,222 --> 00:13:46,225
so that's the wrong rim,
the wrong hubs.

387
00:13:46,392 --> 00:13:48,027
It's got the wrong pedals on it.

388
00:13:48,194 --> 00:13:49,629
The bike has been repainted,

389
00:13:49,729 --> 00:13:51,230
and it's more of an
amateur paint job.

390
00:13:51,397 --> 00:13:53,466
He was building these
bikes to ride them,

391
00:13:53,633 --> 00:13:55,468
and the only way
to enjoy them sometimes

392
00:13:55,635 --> 00:13:57,236
is just to change
the wheel set out.

393
00:13:57,403 --> 00:13:59,639
ERLINE: Um. How about 1,800?

394
00:13:59,739 --> 00:14:01,574
MIKE: I can see out
of the corner of my eye

395
00:14:01,674 --> 00:14:03,142
an early motorcycle frame,

396
00:14:03,309 --> 00:14:06,012
and I know as soon as I do
the deal on these bikes,

397
00:14:06,112 --> 00:14:08,414
Jersey is going
to be all over that.

398
00:14:08,514 --> 00:14:09,716
What do you think, Jersey?

399
00:14:09,816 --> 00:14:11,184
JERSEY: I think you
should go for it.

400
00:14:11,350 --> 00:14:13,319
JESSE: That's MSRP.
That's MSRP.

401
00:14:13,419 --> 00:14:14,987
ERLINE: Thank you, Michael.
MIKE: Thank you.

402
00:14:15,154 --> 00:14:16,389
All right, we're doing it!

403
00:14:18,091 --> 00:14:19,358
ROB: Is this something
you built?

404
00:14:19,459 --> 00:14:21,594
BYRON: No, this is a company
over in Sylacauga, Alabama,

405
00:14:21,694 --> 00:14:23,429
and I didn't know this
until I got it,

406
00:14:23,529 --> 00:14:25,631
but they manufactured
amusement rides.

407
00:14:25,732 --> 00:14:27,600
So this was Rocket.
I thought it was cool.

408
00:14:27,700 --> 00:14:29,435
My hobby is collecting.

409
00:14:29,602 --> 00:14:32,405
I don't hunt or fish
or play golf,

410
00:14:32,505 --> 00:14:34,440
so I get to meet
a lot of different people

411
00:14:34,607 --> 00:14:36,042
all across the country.

412
00:14:36,142 --> 00:14:37,944
ROB: Cigar boxes.
BYRON: Cigar boxes, yeah.

413
00:14:38,111 --> 00:14:39,746
BYRON: Some of my best friends
are people I've met picking

414
00:14:39,912 --> 00:14:41,214
or buying signs

415
00:14:41,314 --> 00:14:42,115
or merchandise.

416
00:14:42,281 --> 00:14:44,117
It's just great.

417
00:14:44,317 --> 00:14:46,352
Part of it came from that store
in Tennessee I bought out.

418
00:14:46,452 --> 00:14:47,954
Actually, 21 years ago,

419
00:14:48,121 --> 00:14:49,922
they were going to tear
that building down,

420
00:14:50,022 --> 00:14:51,791
and those stores were
widening the road.

421
00:14:51,891 --> 00:14:53,459
So I walked in the store,
and the man said,

422
00:14:53,626 --> 00:14:54,994
"Let me see
all this stuff in here."

423
00:14:55,094 --> 00:14:57,263
I said, what do you want for it?
He told me in 15 minutes,

424
00:14:57,430 --> 00:14:58,598
I bought the whole store out.

425
00:14:58,698 --> 00:15:00,767
ROB: Byron, not too many people
walk in a building and say,

426
00:15:00,867 --> 00:15:02,001
"I'll just take it all!"

427
00:15:02,168 --> 00:15:03,269
BYRON: That's right,
we bought it all.

428
00:15:03,436 --> 00:15:06,372
In 2014 is when we
bought the schoolhouse.

429
00:15:06,472 --> 00:15:08,875
ROB: You bought a schoolhouse?
That was full of stuff too?

430
00:15:09,041 --> 00:15:10,843
BYRON: It was just full of
school stuff.

431
00:15:10,943 --> 00:15:13,146
We had to clean it all out
and then made an antique store.

432
00:15:13,312 --> 00:15:14,847
The building was built in 1933.

433
00:15:14,947 --> 00:15:17,083
My daughter, Tajuana,
she runs it on Saturdays

434
00:15:17,183 --> 00:15:18,384
and half day on Sundays.

435
00:15:18,551 --> 00:15:20,887
ROB: I like climbing.
BYRON: Oh, man. But be careful.

436
00:15:24,390 --> 00:15:25,591
(sighs)

437
00:15:29,629 --> 00:15:31,898
ROB: Hey, do you have any
of these you want to sell?

438
00:15:32,064 --> 00:15:33,833
I know you've got a lot
of poles out there.

439
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:35,601
BYRON: I do.
I've got a set of those,

440
00:15:35,768 --> 00:15:37,436
and I've got some
of the round ones.

441
00:15:37,603 --> 00:15:39,438
ROB: There's some round ones.

442
00:15:39,539 --> 00:15:42,074
BYRON: I'll take 125
for a set of them.

443
00:15:42,241 --> 00:15:43,810
ROB: You think you've got
another one here?

444
00:15:43,910 --> 00:15:45,545
BYRON: I do.
ROB: Let's see here.

445
00:15:45,711 --> 00:15:47,213
Oh, I see what you're
talking about right there.

446
00:15:47,313 --> 00:15:48,815
BYRON: Yes, sir.
ROB: All right.

447
00:15:50,283 --> 00:15:51,684
BYRON: Got right
here some more.

448
00:15:51,784 --> 00:15:53,586
ROB: That one right there.

449
00:15:53,753 --> 00:15:55,855
BYRON: Yes sir, that's a good
one. That's a good set.

450
00:15:56,022 --> 00:15:58,224
ROB: Yeah, because they go
like that on the pole.

451
00:15:58,391 --> 00:16:00,126
BYRON: That's right.
ROB: Alright.

452
00:16:00,226 --> 00:16:01,661
I ain't even going
to beat you up.

453
00:16:01,828 --> 00:16:04,363
I know how hard
they are to come by.

454
00:16:04,464 --> 00:16:06,432
BYRON: I used to have
some blue ones one time,

455
00:16:06,532 --> 00:16:07,767
but I know
they're a lot more rare.

456
00:16:07,867 --> 00:16:09,769
ROB: Oh, yeah. Heck, yeah.
You don't have any blue ones?

457
00:16:09,869 --> 00:16:11,370
BYRON: I don't have any blue
ones.

458
00:16:11,470 --> 00:16:13,005
I've got a couple down here,
the big ones.

459
00:16:13,105 --> 00:16:14,707
They're kind of a gray color,
but they're a matching set

460
00:16:14,874 --> 00:16:15,675
of the big ones.

461
00:16:15,842 --> 00:16:17,910
It may not be gray.
It's kind of gray.

462
00:16:18,077 --> 00:16:21,047
But I had the pole for them.

463
00:16:21,147 --> 00:16:22,715
It's a different color.

464
00:16:22,815 --> 00:16:24,684
ROB: They're blue.
BYRON: Okay.

465
00:16:24,784 --> 00:16:26,018
ROB: They're blue.
BYRON: Oh! Oh, my goodness...

466
00:16:26,185 --> 00:16:27,353
ROB: They're blue.
These are blue right here.

467
00:16:27,453 --> 00:16:29,322
BYRON: Golly, they are blue.
I was really surprised.

468
00:16:29,422 --> 00:16:30,723
I didn't know they were blue.

469
00:16:30,823 --> 00:16:32,225
ROB: You got
the poles for these?

470
00:16:32,391 --> 00:16:34,327
BYRON: Well, that's just
a two-inch pole.

471
00:16:34,427 --> 00:16:36,195
ROB: Right. So these would
have been island lights.

472
00:16:36,295 --> 00:16:37,964
BYRON: That's exactly right.
But I got them somewhere.

473
00:16:38,064 --> 00:16:39,599
I don't know where they are.
ROB: Water, air?

474
00:16:39,699 --> 00:16:41,234
BYRON: I've got some of
those out there, yes, sir.

475
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:42,635
ROB: Wanna sell
these with those?

476
00:16:42,802 --> 00:16:44,103
BYRON: I would, yes, sir.
ROB: Everybody wants to

477
00:16:44,270 --> 00:16:45,304
replicate an old gas station.

478
00:16:45,471 --> 00:16:48,441
The air water meter goes
in between the two gas pumps.

479
00:16:48,541 --> 00:16:50,076
This light sits on top.

480
00:16:50,243 --> 00:16:51,510
There's a water spigot
on one side,

481
00:16:51,677 --> 00:16:52,945
and there's an air hose
on the other.

482
00:16:53,112 --> 00:16:54,480
BYRON: Let's just do
this right here.

483
00:16:54,580 --> 00:16:58,017
I'll take $750 each for
the pole and the light.

484
00:16:58,184 --> 00:16:59,719
ROB: If you got the pole.
BYRON: Yeah.

485
00:16:59,819 --> 00:17:01,821
ROB: So $750 for these.
BYRON: That's right.

486
00:17:01,988 --> 00:17:03,589
ROB: And $750 for
the real poles?

487
00:17:03,756 --> 00:17:05,458
BYRON: For the two poles,
that's right. Yes, sir.

488
00:17:05,625 --> 00:17:06,792
ROB: All right.
BYRON: Good deal.

489
00:17:06,893 --> 00:17:08,528
ROB: I want to see
the poles, though.

490
00:17:08,628 --> 00:17:10,062
All right,
let's go look at the poles.

491
00:17:12,632 --> 00:17:13,900
JERSEY: What's going on here?

492
00:17:14,066 --> 00:17:15,968
ERLINE: That's his
Marsh-Metz frame.

493
00:17:16,068 --> 00:17:18,604
JERSEY: Yes! In this sea of
bicycles, I spot something

494
00:17:18,704 --> 00:17:22,708
a little heavier, a little bit
clunkier, a bigger-sized frame.

495
00:17:22,875 --> 00:17:25,878
It's not a bicycle frame.
It's an early motorcycle frame.

496
00:17:26,045 --> 00:17:28,614
ERLINE: He swapped the guy
for a Wizard for that.

497
00:17:28,714 --> 00:17:29,949
JERSEY: What?
ERLINE: Yes.

498
00:17:30,116 --> 00:17:31,117
MIKE: For the frame or a bike?

499
00:17:31,217 --> 00:17:32,552
ERLINE: There were parts of it

500
00:17:32,652 --> 00:17:34,020
and skeletons of a motor.

501
00:17:34,186 --> 00:17:36,989
MIKE: This is a cool company
because Marsh-Metz,

502
00:17:37,156 --> 00:17:39,325
the name Metz, is a big deal

503
00:17:39,425 --> 00:17:40,826
when it comes to early
motorcycles

504
00:17:40,993 --> 00:17:42,595
because prior to this
he was with Orient.

505
00:17:42,695 --> 00:17:45,965
And they also were making
Metz automobiles as well.

506
00:17:46,065 --> 00:17:49,001
JERSEY: Marsh-Metz came from two
different motorcycle companies.

507
00:17:49,101 --> 00:17:51,570
Charles Metz
had marketing expertise.

508
00:17:51,671 --> 00:17:53,272
He knew how to manufacture.

509
00:17:53,439 --> 00:17:55,207
The Marsh brothers
had experience

510
00:17:55,308 --> 00:17:57,109
in making high-performance
motorcycles,

511
00:17:57,276 --> 00:17:59,679
and they merged
together in 1906.

512
00:17:59,779 --> 00:18:01,480
This was a motorcycle
brotherhood.

513
00:18:01,580 --> 00:18:02,748
How long did he
work on this thing?

514
00:18:02,915 --> 00:18:06,218
ERLINE: He got the frame
when our daughter was one,

515
00:18:06,385 --> 00:18:08,721
and she just turned
39 yesterday.

516
00:18:08,821 --> 00:18:10,389
JERSEY: This has been
a long-term project,

517
00:18:10,489 --> 00:18:11,724
and I know that feeling.

518
00:18:11,824 --> 00:18:13,225
ERLINE:
He had the patience of Job.

519
00:18:13,392 --> 00:18:15,394
JERSEY: Is this something you
guys would consider selling?

520
00:18:15,561 --> 00:18:17,830
JESSE: Uh, I mean, potentially.

521
00:18:17,930 --> 00:18:19,632
The parts are kind of
all over the place.

522
00:18:19,799 --> 00:18:21,300
JERSEY: Yeah, do you have
the rest of the parts?

523
00:18:21,467 --> 00:18:22,868
I mean, this is just a frame
that's got...

524
00:18:23,035 --> 00:18:24,503
We need a lot of parts
to make this thing.

525
00:18:24,670 --> 00:18:26,105
MIKE: Yeah, even,
like, the head badge.

526
00:18:26,272 --> 00:18:27,440
Every little piece
is a big deal.

527
00:18:27,540 --> 00:18:29,508
ERLINE: I would think that it's
got to be here somewhere.

528
00:18:29,675 --> 00:18:31,110
JERSEY: This is
a perfect example of how

529
00:18:31,277 --> 00:18:32,678
the restoration process works.

530
00:18:32,845 --> 00:18:36,649
We find these bikes in
these old garages and barns,

531
00:18:36,749 --> 00:18:38,284
and they're all in pieces,
they're scattered about.

532
00:18:38,384 --> 00:18:39,919
MIKE: Jersey!
JERSEY: Yo!

533
00:18:40,019 --> 00:18:41,754
MIKE: I found the front
wheel of the Marsh!

534
00:18:41,921 --> 00:18:43,189
JERSEY: Really?

535
00:18:43,289 --> 00:18:44,357
JERSEY:
And there's somebody's dream,

536
00:18:44,457 --> 00:18:46,025
the project that's
not been completed

537
00:18:46,192 --> 00:18:47,126
or it's been dispersed.

538
00:18:47,226 --> 00:18:48,594
MIKE: Found the handlebars!

539
00:18:48,694 --> 00:18:49,829
JERSEY: Whoa!
Are those original?

540
00:18:49,929 --> 00:18:50,997
MIKE: Yes!

541
00:18:51,097 --> 00:18:53,199
JERSEY: And it's our job
to harvest these projects,

542
00:18:53,299 --> 00:18:54,700
to bring them
back into the light.

543
00:18:54,867 --> 00:18:56,769
MIKE: Wow, it's even
got the rockers on.

544
00:18:56,869 --> 00:18:58,871
JERSEY: Yeah, look, it's
got the hourglass hub.

545
00:18:59,038 --> 00:19:00,439
MIKE: That's what I'm saying.

546
00:19:00,606 --> 00:19:02,308
JERSEY: That's pretty nice.
MIKE: And then I found this.

547
00:19:02,475 --> 00:19:04,210
JERSEY: Oh, wow, look at them.
MIKE: The brackets are great.

548
00:19:04,310 --> 00:19:05,745
JERSEY: Yeah, the brackets
are cool.

549
00:19:05,911 --> 00:19:08,080
JERSEY: Oh, yeah, look at that.
This is the original rims.

550
00:19:08,180 --> 00:19:10,116
MIKE: Here's those handlebars
we found right here.

551
00:19:10,282 --> 00:19:12,551
JERSEY: Oh, yeah, man.
That's nice.

552
00:19:12,652 --> 00:19:15,021
MIKE: Like, you're mentally
trying to retrace his steps

553
00:19:15,187 --> 00:19:16,922
and, like, where would
he put something?

554
00:19:17,023 --> 00:19:18,758
Because I know Jesse Sr.

555
00:19:18,858 --> 00:19:21,794
would not cross-pollinate
these motorcycle parts

556
00:19:21,894 --> 00:19:23,029
with bicycle parts.

557
00:19:23,129 --> 00:19:24,630
JERSEY:
That's Marsh-Metz for sure.

558
00:19:28,834 --> 00:19:30,636
MIKE: Jersey!
JERSEY: Yo!

559
00:19:30,736 --> 00:19:32,638
MIKE: All right, here.
You ready?

560
00:19:32,738 --> 00:19:33,773
JERSEY: Yep. Whoa.

561
00:19:33,873 --> 00:19:35,641
MIKE: I'm going to bring those
parts down I found.

562
00:19:35,808 --> 00:19:38,077
JERSEY: I'm going to pull this
frame out. Watch that oil tank.

563
00:19:38,244 --> 00:19:39,678
Once I see
this Marsh-Metz frame,

564
00:19:39,779 --> 00:19:41,914
I want to just take
this whole building apart

565
00:19:42,081 --> 00:19:43,983
and find
all those parts.

566
00:19:44,150 --> 00:19:45,551
Rear fender.
Yeah, and there's the fork.

567
00:19:45,651 --> 00:19:47,620
This is a reproduction tank.
MIKE: It is?

568
00:19:47,787 --> 00:19:49,755
JERSEY: Yeah. Matt Smith from
Antique Motorcycle Works

569
00:19:49,855 --> 00:19:50,956
makes these.
He makes them, yeah.

570
00:19:51,057 --> 00:19:52,858
My buddy Matt Smith from
the Antique Motorcycle Works

571
00:19:53,025 --> 00:19:55,995
in Oregon, his whole family's
been making motorcycle parts

572
00:19:56,095 --> 00:19:57,563
for generations now.

573
00:19:57,663 --> 00:20:01,267
They're one of the top suppliers
of parts for bikes like this.

574
00:20:01,434 --> 00:20:03,135
JESSE: Here we go.
What do we have?

575
00:20:03,235 --> 00:20:04,403
JERSEY: That's the idea, anyway.

576
00:20:04,503 --> 00:20:05,838
MIKE: Have you seen
the engine yet?

577
00:20:06,005 --> 00:20:07,073
JERSEY: No.
JESSE: There is an engine.

578
00:20:07,239 --> 00:20:08,708
MIKE: Okay, so engine.

579
00:20:08,874 --> 00:20:11,243
We need the rear wheel,
the pedal cranks,

580
00:20:11,343 --> 00:20:12,344
the chain ring.

581
00:20:12,511 --> 00:20:14,547
JERSEY: Clutch.
JESSE: That I don't know about.

582
00:20:14,714 --> 00:20:16,415
MIKE: What else is
in there, Jersey?

583
00:20:16,515 --> 00:20:18,517
So here's a toolbox.

584
00:20:18,617 --> 00:20:20,152
JERSEY:
Yep, and there's a muffler.

585
00:20:20,252 --> 00:20:22,388
MIKE: That's a muffler.
I have an original muffler.

586
00:20:22,555 --> 00:20:23,556
JERSEY: Do you?

587
00:20:23,722 --> 00:20:25,191
MIKE: This is one
of Smith's mufflers.

588
00:20:25,291 --> 00:20:26,392
Here, Jersey, check this out.

589
00:20:26,559 --> 00:20:27,860
JERSEY: Oh, that's
the clutch piece.

590
00:20:28,027 --> 00:20:29,962
MIKE: Anything we find
is exciting. Oh, dude.

591
00:20:30,062 --> 00:20:31,797
JERSEY: What do you got?
MIKE: Here's the linkage.

592
00:20:31,897 --> 00:20:34,266
This stuff is so hard to find.
Here's the pedal crank.

593
00:20:35,234 --> 00:20:36,635
JESSE: We got it.
MIKE: Right there.

594
00:20:36,802 --> 00:20:38,704
MIKE: I don't care what it is.
I don't even care if it's

595
00:20:38,871 --> 00:20:40,706
the screws that hold
the head badge on. You know?

596
00:20:40,873 --> 00:20:42,708
It's like, we're
going to try to find it.

597
00:20:42,875 --> 00:20:44,643
JERSEY: Oh, cool.
Look at all the little parts.

598
00:20:44,744 --> 00:20:47,012
MIKE: And then, dude, here's
a nice set of bars.

599
00:20:47,113 --> 00:20:49,915
JERSEY: Oh, yeah. Look at that.
Yeah, these are Matt's bars. So.

600
00:20:50,082 --> 00:20:53,018
The dream of any restorer
is to work

601
00:20:53,185 --> 00:20:54,353
with only original parts.

602
00:20:54,453 --> 00:20:56,155
MIKE: Jersey, look at that.
JERSEY: Oh, that's cool.

603
00:20:56,322 --> 00:20:57,656
That's a nice original part.

604
00:20:57,823 --> 00:20:59,325
But sometimes
we have to make a part

605
00:20:59,425 --> 00:21:00,960
because we can't
find an original.

606
00:21:01,060 --> 00:21:03,062
MIKE: And look at this.
JERSEY: Oh, the rear stand.

607
00:21:03,229 --> 00:21:04,964
MIKE: The rear stand.
JERSEY: That's neat.

608
00:21:05,064 --> 00:21:06,499
MIKE: There it is, dude.
JERSEY: Yep.

609
00:21:06,665 --> 00:21:08,234
This is a reproduction
from Matt Smith.

610
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:10,002
It's electrically welded.

611
00:21:10,102 --> 00:21:12,571
Now it's my job to find out
what the original parts are,

612
00:21:12,671 --> 00:21:14,206
what reproduction
parts are there...

613
00:21:14,306 --> 00:21:15,441
MIKE: There's another seat post.

614
00:21:15,541 --> 00:21:17,243
JERSEY:
What parts even go to this bike?

615
00:21:17,343 --> 00:21:19,345
MIKE: He did the best he could
and sourced a lot of it.

616
00:21:19,512 --> 00:21:20,880
That's the original pedal, even.

617
00:21:20,980 --> 00:21:22,081
JERSEY: Yes.
That's the original pedal.

618
00:21:22,181 --> 00:21:23,516
MIKE: Dude, that's sick.
That's awesome.

619
00:21:23,682 --> 00:21:25,317
Let's see if I can
find the rear wheel.

620
00:21:25,417 --> 00:21:27,086
JERSEY: We can't
expect Erline and Jesse

621
00:21:27,186 --> 00:21:28,387
to know what these parts are.

622
00:21:28,554 --> 00:21:29,755
Wow, that's part of the crank.

623
00:21:29,855 --> 00:21:31,524
JERSEY: It's just really
fortunate for me

624
00:21:31,624 --> 00:21:34,193
that I'm working on
the same exact motorcycle

625
00:21:34,293 --> 00:21:35,594
in my shop right now.

626
00:21:35,761 --> 00:21:37,129
MIKE: All right, Jersey.
JERSEY: No kidding. Cool, man.

627
00:21:37,263 --> 00:21:38,230
I knew you could find it.

628
00:21:38,330 --> 00:21:40,633
MIKE: Somebody made the wooden
belt sheath on it.

629
00:21:40,733 --> 00:21:42,268
JERSEY: Oh, yeah.
MIKE: Look at that.

630
00:21:42,434 --> 00:21:44,370
And then look at these.
He saw these up there.

631
00:21:44,470 --> 00:21:47,039
JERSEY: Those are the original
rims. Those are 26-inch rims.

632
00:21:47,139 --> 00:21:49,441
MIKE: Is that a 28?
JERSEY: This is 28-inch rims.

633
00:21:49,542 --> 00:21:50,442
MIKE: Okay.

634
00:21:50,576 --> 00:21:52,044
JERSEY: Look at
the difference in size.

635
00:21:52,144 --> 00:21:54,046
MIKE: That's huge. Yeah.
JERSEY: Yeah, so...

636
00:21:54,146 --> 00:21:55,147
MIKE: Cool.

637
00:21:55,314 --> 00:21:57,016
JERSEY: This bike's supposed to
have 26-inch rims,

638
00:21:57,116 --> 00:21:59,018
and these are 28-inch rims.
I don't know why.

639
00:21:59,185 --> 00:22:01,287
If you're going to
have a 28-inch rim,

640
00:22:01,387 --> 00:22:03,756
you need a 28-inch frame.

641
00:22:03,856 --> 00:22:06,725
So I have to be very careful
what's going on here.

642
00:22:06,826 --> 00:22:08,828
I've got to make sure
that Jesse did his homework

643
00:22:08,994 --> 00:22:10,830
and all these parts
are compatible.

644
00:22:10,996 --> 00:22:13,199
ERLINE: Oh, my goodness.
This is great!

645
00:22:13,299 --> 00:22:14,900
JERSEY: We're going
to need some...

646
00:22:15,034 --> 00:22:16,669
I don't think you got it.
Oh, here we go.

647
00:22:16,836 --> 00:22:18,103
MIKE: There.
JERSEY: Here we go.

648
00:22:18,270 --> 00:22:19,872
MIKE: There we go.
ERLINE: Wonderful.

649
00:22:20,039 --> 00:22:21,640
MIKE: And we got
this going on here.

650
00:22:21,740 --> 00:22:22,975
ERLINE: Fantastic.

651
00:22:23,075 --> 00:22:25,411
JERSEY: What gets me, Mike, is,
you see how this piece is new?

652
00:22:25,511 --> 00:22:27,846
He might have converted
this to a 28-inch.

653
00:22:27,947 --> 00:22:30,249
I'm getting pretty excited here,
because I'm finding a lot

654
00:22:30,349 --> 00:22:32,351
of parts that are
correct and viable.

655
00:22:32,518 --> 00:22:34,987
JERSEY: Do you have a motor?
JESSE: We have it somewhere.

656
00:22:35,154 --> 00:22:36,355
ERLINE: Let's go
see the studio.

657
00:22:36,455 --> 00:22:37,790
JERSEY: The studio? Okay.

658
00:22:37,890 --> 00:22:39,992
MIKE: Listen, you've got so
much stuff up there

659
00:22:40,092 --> 00:22:41,193
that I haven't even seen yet.

660
00:22:41,293 --> 00:22:42,595
Can I go up there
and look around?

661
00:22:42,761 --> 00:22:44,230
ERLINE: Absolutely.
You're more than welcome.

662
00:22:44,330 --> 00:22:46,031
MIKE: Jersey, I'm going
into Bicycle Land!

663
00:22:54,039 --> 00:22:55,641
BYRON: Some of these, I'm all
set up down the driveway.

664
00:22:55,741 --> 00:22:57,843
ROB: How do you even find
any of the stuff out here?

665
00:22:57,943 --> 00:22:59,445
It looks like it's been
here for 100 years.

666
00:22:59,545 --> 00:23:00,679
BYRON: Well, it's been
here for a while.

667
00:23:00,846 --> 00:23:02,615
ROB: You've got more poles
than anybody I've seen,

668
00:23:02,715 --> 00:23:03,916
I can tell you
that much right now.

669
00:23:04,016 --> 00:23:07,486
There's got to be 200 poles
in a pile here.

670
00:23:07,586 --> 00:23:09,388
BYRON: I think those poles here.

671
00:23:09,555 --> 00:23:10,923
ROB: Right here?

672
00:23:11,023 --> 00:23:12,391
BYRON: Well, no,
they're not here.

673
00:23:12,558 --> 00:23:13,859
Well, we're going
to have to find them.

674
00:23:14,026 --> 00:23:14,994
I thought I knew
where they were.

675
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:17,663
The last time they came,
Frank and Mike,

676
00:23:17,830 --> 00:23:20,432
all that stuff was out here
in the yard.

677
00:23:20,532 --> 00:23:23,435
It was truly a junkyard.
So we cleaned that up last year.

678
00:23:23,602 --> 00:23:25,237
And so we put it out
there in the woods.

679
00:23:25,404 --> 00:23:26,805
It may be up there with
those other ones.

680
00:23:26,906 --> 00:23:29,642
I thought they were down here.
Well, what do I know, though,

681
00:23:29,808 --> 00:23:31,210
my nephew put them here.

682
00:23:31,310 --> 00:23:32,344
So they hid them
good, didn't they?

683
00:23:32,511 --> 00:23:34,079
ROB: I'm starting
to get nervous.

684
00:23:34,179 --> 00:23:36,215
Byron's got
over 300 acres here.

685
00:23:36,315 --> 00:23:38,350
BYRON: Yeah, I don't think the
pole up to the tree fell over.

686
00:23:38,517 --> 00:23:40,152
It may be over
with those other ones.

687
00:23:40,319 --> 00:23:42,688
I thought they were here.
We lost the light pole.

688
00:23:42,788 --> 00:23:44,223
ROB: Right here.

689
00:23:44,390 --> 00:23:45,858
BYRON: I think we found
the light pole.

690
00:23:46,025 --> 00:23:47,960
ROB: Um... That's a round
one right here.

691
00:23:48,060 --> 00:23:49,228
BYRON: Both of those
would match.

692
00:23:49,395 --> 00:23:50,796
ROB: Those would
match that set.

693
00:23:50,896 --> 00:23:52,798
BYRON: And you could add the
water and the lights to that.

694
00:23:52,898 --> 00:23:54,199
ROB: Oh, you could
easily add it.

695
00:23:54,300 --> 00:23:56,802
The original ones were fluted.
These are smooth on the outside.

696
00:23:56,902 --> 00:23:59,605
So I'll have to add
the water spigot to the one side

697
00:23:59,705 --> 00:24:02,074
and add a little coiled-up
air hose to one side.

698
00:24:02,241 --> 00:24:03,442
But the fact
that they're painted,

699
00:24:03,542 --> 00:24:04,643
they're in great shape,

700
00:24:04,743 --> 00:24:06,478
they're going to
make this whole deal work.

701
00:24:06,645 --> 00:24:08,347
BYRON: They don't have
the water. I thought they did.

702
00:24:08,514 --> 00:24:10,449
ROB: Yeah.
We'll just add in the cost.

703
00:24:10,549 --> 00:24:13,018
BYRON: What if we did $600 on
these two instead of the $750?

704
00:24:13,185 --> 00:24:16,188
ROB: 600 bucks on a pair.
BYRON: Yeah.

705
00:24:16,355 --> 00:24:18,324
ROB: Okay, I'm doing that.
I'll do that.

706
00:24:18,424 --> 00:24:19,758
All right,
I appreciate you on that.

707
00:24:19,858 --> 00:24:21,226
BYRON: Yes, sir.
Ain't no problem at all.

708
00:24:21,393 --> 00:24:22,795
He was wanting it
with a water spigot.

709
00:24:22,962 --> 00:24:24,430
And the ones that
I had didn't have it.

710
00:24:24,530 --> 00:24:25,964
So I cut the price a little bit.

711
00:24:26,065 --> 00:24:28,901
BYRON: We're going up here, and
we're looking for more stuff.

712
00:24:29,034 --> 00:24:29,368
ROB: All right.

713
00:24:35,874 --> 00:24:37,910
MIKE: Some of the most
beautiful,

714
00:24:38,077 --> 00:24:41,313
well-designed bicycles
were made during the Depression.

715
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:43,949
And that's why a lot of this
stuff is so hard to find.

716
00:24:44,116 --> 00:24:46,085
So when I'm up here
looking through these parts,

717
00:24:46,185 --> 00:24:47,986
I'm looking for
certain chain guards,

718
00:24:48,153 --> 00:24:50,422
certain fenders,
certain headlights,

719
00:24:50,589 --> 00:24:52,958
the streamline stuff,
the airflow stuff,

720
00:24:53,058 --> 00:24:54,526
the hard to find parts.

721
00:24:54,626 --> 00:24:56,595
JESSE: Why would he save
all these frames

722
00:24:56,695 --> 00:24:58,697
and fenders
and wheels and spokes?

723
00:24:58,864 --> 00:25:00,432
MIKE: Because he knew
they had value.

724
00:25:00,532 --> 00:25:01,867
ERLINE: Any of those
forks are all lined up?

725
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,536
There's, like, 40 of the forks.
I mean, that's, any desirable?

726
00:25:04,636 --> 00:25:05,771
That's unique? MIKE:
Yeah, I mean,

727
00:25:05,871 --> 00:25:07,639
there's nothing there that
really stands out too much.

728
00:25:07,806 --> 00:25:09,308
ERLINE: Nothing's unique? Okay.
MIKE: Nothing too crazy.

729
00:25:09,475 --> 00:25:10,642
These are all pretty common.

730
00:25:10,809 --> 00:25:12,211
But you get into a situation
where you have

731
00:25:12,311 --> 00:25:15,748
this kind of quantity, I mean,
that's a tremendous amount

732
00:25:15,914 --> 00:25:17,950
of work to get rid of
this amount of stuff.

733
00:25:18,117 --> 00:25:21,220
To sell it to one
person for a number

734
00:25:21,387 --> 00:25:23,622
is, to me, smarter.

735
00:25:23,789 --> 00:25:25,190
I wish I was that guy.

736
00:25:25,290 --> 00:25:27,226
I can give you names of guys...
JESSE: That's what we need.

737
00:25:27,393 --> 00:25:28,627
MIKE: That will buy volume.

738
00:25:28,794 --> 00:25:31,030
ERLINE: See, I just didn't want
to go to the junkyard with this.

739
00:25:31,196 --> 00:25:34,032
MIKE: No, no, no. Nothing up
here is junk. Nothing is.

740
00:25:34,133 --> 00:25:36,535
JESSE: Hearing his
recommendation

741
00:25:36,635 --> 00:25:39,038
of how to approach a collection
like this, that was invaluable.

742
00:25:39,204 --> 00:25:42,441
My dad had another bike that
he always would talk about.

743
00:25:42,608 --> 00:25:46,612
It's the Elgin Bluebird.
MIKE: Yeah! Oh, my gosh.

744
00:25:46,712 --> 00:25:50,015
A lot of bicycle collectors
consider the Elgin Bluebird

745
00:25:50,115 --> 00:25:53,952
the most streamlined, airflow,
beautiful bicycle ever made.

746
00:25:54,052 --> 00:25:56,388
I'm trying to figure out
what he was doing here.

747
00:25:56,555 --> 00:25:59,191
Oh, my gosh.
This is an Elgin Robin frame.

748
00:25:59,358 --> 00:26:01,727
He was going to use
this down tube,

749
00:26:01,827 --> 00:26:03,629
and he was going to use
that bottom bracket shell.

750
00:26:03,796 --> 00:26:05,497
See, because
there's nothing here.

751
00:26:05,664 --> 00:26:08,033
And then the frame is
broken right here.

752
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,936
This is like one of the
most expensive, airflow,

753
00:26:11,036 --> 00:26:13,372
rare balloon tire
bicycles there is.

754
00:26:13,472 --> 00:26:16,408
This was made during
the Depression

755
00:26:16,508 --> 00:26:18,877
from 1935 to 1937.

756
00:26:18,977 --> 00:26:21,246
This bike would have
been $45 back then.

757
00:26:21,346 --> 00:26:24,249
Someone's salary
for like three weeks.

758
00:26:24,349 --> 00:26:27,019
I mean, it's one of the most
coveted bicycles they made.

759
00:26:27,186 --> 00:26:28,987
JESSE: Oh yeah. He very
much indicated that.

760
00:26:29,154 --> 00:26:30,489
MIKE: This is crazy.

761
00:26:30,589 --> 00:26:33,192
If there was like a Mount
Rushmore of antique bicycles,

762
00:26:33,358 --> 00:26:35,727
the Elgin Bluebird would be
right in the center.

763
00:26:35,828 --> 00:26:38,831
So here, I'm looking at one
that's like broke in half,

764
00:26:38,997 --> 00:26:40,966
and it's just laying
outside of the garage!

765
00:26:41,066 --> 00:26:42,568
So let's grab this...

766
00:26:42,668 --> 00:26:45,204
The first Elgin Bluebird
was made in 1935

767
00:26:45,304 --> 00:26:50,075
from the brilliant mind
of Juan Raydolphus Morgansky,

768
00:26:50,242 --> 00:26:52,211
AKA John Morgan.

769
00:26:52,311 --> 00:26:53,812
Oh, my gosh. Look at this.

770
00:26:53,912 --> 00:26:58,083
This is part of that whole
design revolution in the 1930's

771
00:26:58,250 --> 00:27:01,186
of who was going to build the
coolest, most bad to the bone,

772
00:27:01,353 --> 00:27:03,288
airflow, streamlined bicycle.

773
00:27:03,388 --> 00:27:04,556
So look at the way
they made this.

774
00:27:04,656 --> 00:27:07,426
This is basically
like a fuselage, okay?

775
00:27:07,593 --> 00:27:11,230
This tank isn't clamped onto,
or into, the frame.

776
00:27:11,396 --> 00:27:13,265
It's actually part of the frame.

777
00:27:13,432 --> 00:27:16,401
But this is interesting to me
because this is cut off here.

778
00:27:16,568 --> 00:27:18,871
See? And then look it.
That's cut off.

779
00:27:19,037 --> 00:27:20,038
And this is cut off.

780
00:27:20,205 --> 00:27:22,875
Right here, too, there was
something welded here.

781
00:27:23,041 --> 00:27:25,043
JESSE: I'm pretty sure
we have more parts to this.

782
00:27:25,144 --> 00:27:28,514
And I also have a picture
of my brother with this bike.

783
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:31,250
I think it has more to it.
So let me go get it.

784
00:27:31,350 --> 00:27:33,185
MIKE: Okay.
There was a plan here

785
00:27:33,352 --> 00:27:35,954
because he's got this
cadaver frame that's a donor

786
00:27:36,054 --> 00:27:37,956
where he can use the downtube.

787
00:27:38,056 --> 00:27:39,224
He can use
the bottom bracket shell

788
00:27:39,391 --> 00:27:40,325
with the grease zerks in it.

789
00:27:40,425 --> 00:27:41,426
Nice.

790
00:27:43,896 --> 00:27:45,164
ROB: Holy cow!

791
00:27:45,264 --> 00:27:47,266
BYRON: This is a little
bit better.

792
00:27:47,432 --> 00:27:49,601
ROB: This is like the building
that just keeps on giving.

793
00:27:49,701 --> 00:27:51,570
BYRON: It is.
It just keeps on going.

794
00:27:51,670 --> 00:27:54,506
ROB: Byron is, like, holding
out. There's more stuff in here.

795
00:27:54,673 --> 00:27:56,642
Every square inch is decorated.

796
00:27:56,742 --> 00:27:58,043
ROB: Is that an original
countertop?

797
00:27:58,143 --> 00:27:58,911
BYRON: It is.

798
00:27:59,077 --> 00:28:00,646
ROB: Original dealership
from Mopar?

799
00:28:00,746 --> 00:28:02,481
BYRON: It came out of
the Limewell dealership.

800
00:28:02,581 --> 00:28:03,815
And I got
all the books with it.

801
00:28:03,916 --> 00:28:05,784
ROB: That looks new old stock.
BYRON: It is new old stock.

802
00:28:05,951 --> 00:28:09,354
And those two right there, I
would sell one of them, $5,500.

803
00:28:09,521 --> 00:28:11,990
ROB: Yeah. You're right
there on the money.

804
00:28:12,157 --> 00:28:14,927
I have a feeling that this
is Byron's personal room,

805
00:28:15,027 --> 00:28:16,161
and he's enjoying it.

806
00:28:16,261 --> 00:28:17,529
And I understand that.

807
00:28:17,629 --> 00:28:21,200
Three fine entertainers to make
your drive more enjoyable.

808
00:28:21,300 --> 00:28:24,836
BYRON: This was a Chevrolet
dealership item, 1956.

809
00:28:25,003 --> 00:28:26,905
And it actually,
I got the antennas

810
00:28:27,072 --> 00:28:29,274
that just hooked to a battery so
they could try out which radio

811
00:28:29,441 --> 00:28:30,642
they wanted in the car
in the dealership.

812
00:28:30,809 --> 00:28:32,311
ROB: He's got baseball in here.

813
00:28:32,477 --> 00:28:34,613
He's got a concert going on
over here.

814
00:28:34,713 --> 00:28:36,882
I've never seen one before,
to tell you the truth.

815
00:28:36,982 --> 00:28:39,017
BYRON: I'd take $1,600 for it.

816
00:28:39,184 --> 00:28:41,687
ROB: One thing I learned a long,
long time ago,

817
00:28:41,787 --> 00:28:44,423
when you see something
that you have not seen

818
00:28:44,590 --> 00:28:46,558
and it's in great shape,

819
00:28:46,658 --> 00:28:48,226
then you have to
at least try buy it.

820
00:28:48,393 --> 00:28:50,662
I like it. My brother's
got a Chevy dealership.

821
00:28:50,829 --> 00:28:53,198
I want to say it
was opened in the 1940's.

822
00:28:53,298 --> 00:28:54,833
So it's in downtown Columbia,
Tennessee.

823
00:28:54,933 --> 00:28:57,002
And this would be a cool
piece to have in there.

824
00:28:57,169 --> 00:28:58,870
What did you say you're
going to have on it?

825
00:28:59,037 --> 00:29:01,039
BYRON: Well, I said $1,600,
but make me an offer.

826
00:29:03,008 --> 00:29:04,643
ROB: 900 bucks.

827
00:29:04,810 --> 00:29:06,111
BYRON: I'll tell you
what I'll do.

828
00:29:06,278 --> 00:29:10,315
For this and those two original
plastic Chevy and Pontiac,

829
00:29:10,482 --> 00:29:12,884
I'll do $1,200
for all three pieces.

830
00:29:15,020 --> 00:29:16,421
ROB: Do $1,000.

831
00:29:16,588 --> 00:29:17,756
BYRON: $1,000.

832
00:29:17,923 --> 00:29:20,025
I'll do that.
ROB: All right.

833
00:29:20,192 --> 00:29:21,226
BYRON: Thanks.
ROB: Appreciate it.

834
00:29:21,393 --> 00:29:23,328
BYRON: Yes, sir. Mike having
that Chevrolet dealership,

835
00:29:23,428 --> 00:29:25,497
I got thinking, you know, when
they had those other two pieces

836
00:29:25,664 --> 00:29:27,699
over there,
they're General Motors.

837
00:29:27,866 --> 00:29:30,769
I like to see things go
somewhere it kind of belongs to.

838
00:29:30,869 --> 00:29:32,571
ROB: Where's the scratch
and dent aisle?

839
00:29:32,671 --> 00:29:34,439
BYRON: I got a whole shed
outside of scratch and dent.

840
00:29:34,539 --> 00:29:36,575
ROB: You got a whole other shed
outside? Let's go check it out.

841
00:29:36,675 --> 00:29:38,076
BYRON: All right, sir.

842
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:43,482
JESSE: He's right here.

843
00:29:43,582 --> 00:29:45,417
MIKE: Oh, okay.

844
00:29:45,584 --> 00:29:47,552
JESSE: And a photo
of my little brother

845
00:29:47,653 --> 00:29:48,820
in his heyday right here.

846
00:29:48,987 --> 00:29:51,757
MIKE: Okay, I see
what's going on here.

847
00:29:51,857 --> 00:29:54,726
See, there was a bar
welded to here.

848
00:29:54,826 --> 00:29:58,597
They cut the seat tube out
to put this engine in it.

849
00:29:58,697 --> 00:30:01,466
They've removed
the chain stays here

850
00:30:01,633 --> 00:30:03,368
to take this piece of iron

851
00:30:03,468 --> 00:30:05,771
all the way across
into here, it looks like.

852
00:30:05,871 --> 00:30:08,640
So here's the rear rack.
Look at this thing, man.

853
00:30:08,807 --> 00:30:09,841
This is nuts.

854
00:30:09,941 --> 00:30:12,511
See, look how massive
this bike was. Think about it.

855
00:30:12,678 --> 00:30:14,346
I mean, it's almost like
a praying mantis look to it.

856
00:30:14,513 --> 00:30:17,482
You know, it's like a shark.
I mean, it even has gills, man.

857
00:30:17,649 --> 00:30:20,585
Oh, man, this is so cool.
Look at that.

858
00:30:20,752 --> 00:30:22,554
And this has got even some
of the original paint.

859
00:30:22,654 --> 00:30:24,623
Look at this.
Look at that.

860
00:30:24,790 --> 00:30:28,727
So that's the blue right there,
and then that red pinstripe.

861
00:30:28,827 --> 00:30:32,064
What he has here,
this is the crown jewel.

862
00:30:32,230 --> 00:30:33,165
This is it.

863
00:30:33,265 --> 00:30:34,966
I mean, it don't get
any better than this,

864
00:30:35,067 --> 00:30:37,202
unless it was together
and it was rideable,

865
00:30:37,302 --> 00:30:38,837
and it had original chrome,

866
00:30:38,937 --> 00:30:41,273
and original leather on
the saddle, and it had a saddle,

867
00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:43,208
and it had pedals,
and a crank...

868
00:30:43,308 --> 00:30:44,576
Then it would be better.

869
00:30:44,676 --> 00:30:47,346
But right now, at this moment,
this is as good as it gets.

870
00:30:47,512 --> 00:30:48,647
JESSE: There you go.

871
00:30:48,747 --> 00:30:51,450
MIKE: Look at that, man.
It's like industrial art.

872
00:30:51,550 --> 00:30:54,586
Seriously. Can I make
you an offer on it?

873
00:30:54,753 --> 00:30:56,154
JESSE: Sure.

874
00:30:56,321 --> 00:30:57,823
MIKE: Depending on
the level of restoration,

875
00:30:57,989 --> 00:31:01,193
$9,000 to probably to $12,000

876
00:31:01,293 --> 00:31:02,994
is where people usually
sit on these things

877
00:31:03,161 --> 00:31:04,396
when they're complete.

878
00:31:04,496 --> 00:31:06,431
That's how
rare this bicycle is.

879
00:31:06,531 --> 00:31:07,699
3,000 bucks.

880
00:31:13,004 --> 00:31:14,673
MIKE: Can I make you
an offer on it?

881
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:16,374
JESSE: Sure.
MIKE: 3,000 bucks.

882
00:31:16,475 --> 00:31:18,610
I mean, it just needs
so much work.

883
00:31:18,710 --> 00:31:21,246
It needs someone
that understands

884
00:31:21,346 --> 00:31:23,515
the importance of it
and then has the skills

885
00:31:23,682 --> 00:31:25,684
to complete this
kind of metal work,

886
00:31:25,784 --> 00:31:27,753
and that helps it a lot.

887
00:31:27,853 --> 00:31:29,354
JESSE: So you want that
with it as well?

888
00:31:29,454 --> 00:31:30,589
MIKE: Absolutely.

889
00:31:30,756 --> 00:31:32,157
JESSE: Think you
could do $4,500?

890
00:31:33,558 --> 00:31:37,162
MIKE: No, because it's got
probably $3,000 to $4,000

891
00:31:37,262 --> 00:31:38,463
in metal work to be done.

892
00:31:38,630 --> 00:31:40,565
And then on top of that, you
still have to have the speedo,

893
00:31:40,665 --> 00:31:42,367
you still have to have
the horn and light button,

894
00:31:42,467 --> 00:31:44,469
you still have
to have the battery top.

895
00:31:44,636 --> 00:31:46,037
You're going to find wheels.

896
00:31:46,204 --> 00:31:48,440
If we can't find the handlebar
stem, that has to be bought.

897
00:31:48,540 --> 00:31:50,442
Pedal cranks, the chain ring.

898
00:31:50,609 --> 00:31:52,377
There's a tremendous
amount of work here.

899
00:31:52,477 --> 00:31:54,279
It's not like you're
working with a complete bike

900
00:31:54,446 --> 00:31:56,848
that's all there and you're
just going to restore it.

901
00:31:56,948 --> 00:31:58,550
JESSE: What could
you come up to?

902
00:31:58,750 --> 00:32:01,153
MIKE: I mean, I feel like I'm
being pretty legit with you guys

903
00:32:01,319 --> 00:32:05,424
in regards to an offer
on it, you know.

904
00:32:05,590 --> 00:32:06,725
Um...

905
00:32:08,026 --> 00:32:09,528
$3,200.

906
00:32:11,396 --> 00:32:14,966
I'd like to have a copy of that
photo because that explains...

907
00:32:15,066 --> 00:32:16,568
JESSE: This is a $300 photo.

908
00:32:16,668 --> 00:32:17,803
MIKE: Yeah.
(laughs)

909
00:32:17,903 --> 00:32:20,172
That explains
the whole situation though.

910
00:32:20,272 --> 00:32:21,873
JESSE: Let's do it.
MIKE: You want to do it?

911
00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:23,608
JESSE: Yeah.
MIKE: All right, man, thank you.

912
00:32:23,708 --> 00:32:26,077
JESSE: We're not going to be
able to put this all together,

913
00:32:26,244 --> 00:32:29,848
and it's just another chance to
see a project come to fruition.

914
00:32:29,948 --> 00:32:31,817
MIKE: It's so unbelievable.

915
00:32:33,318 --> 00:32:34,820
ROB: Yeah, you've got
pole signs in here.

916
00:32:34,986 --> 00:32:36,421
BYRON: That's right, yeah.

917
00:32:36,588 --> 00:32:38,557
ROB: I need a lean-to like this.
Everybody needs catch-all here.

918
00:32:38,723 --> 00:32:40,992
BYRON: Don't do it like me.
Don't fill them all up.

919
00:32:41,092 --> 00:32:42,961
ROB: These are actually
pretty cool.

920
00:32:43,061 --> 00:32:45,197
BYRON: Yeah, those came from
there. Those are original.

921
00:32:45,363 --> 00:32:47,165
ROB: It's got the look.
BYRON: It's cleaned up too.

922
00:32:47,265 --> 00:32:48,967
It's dirty, dusty.
Give me $500 for both of them.

923
00:32:49,034 --> 00:32:51,937
ROB: This one's got a big smash
in it. The trim's gone.

924
00:32:52,037 --> 00:32:53,371
300 bucks.

925
00:32:53,472 --> 00:32:56,842
BYRON: I'll do $400 for both of
them. And I got the add glass.

926
00:32:57,008 --> 00:32:58,443
ROB: That goes in here?
BYRON: Yes.

927
00:32:58,610 --> 00:33:00,345
ROB: $400. I can do $400.

928
00:33:00,512 --> 00:33:02,480
Leaves a little.
Leaves a little on the end.

929
00:33:02,647 --> 00:33:04,416
These are the front
of a Bennett pump.

930
00:33:04,516 --> 00:33:07,152
A lot of guys are using
these in bathroom displays.

931
00:33:07,319 --> 00:33:09,354
What they're doing is they're
putting the original thing

932
00:33:09,454 --> 00:33:11,523
on the wall and putting
a mirror behind it.

933
00:33:11,623 --> 00:33:13,992
What else you got to show me?

934
00:33:18,630 --> 00:33:20,832
JESSE: So, we talked
about it earlier, my dad.

935
00:33:20,999 --> 00:33:22,634
The stuff out in the barn,
the junk.

936
00:33:22,734 --> 00:33:23,869
This is the finished product,
if you will.

937
00:33:24,035 --> 00:33:26,371
JERSEY: Whoa!
Look at this place.

938
00:33:26,471 --> 00:33:27,839
MIKE: Whoa.
JERSEY: Look at the robots.

939
00:33:27,939 --> 00:33:29,441
MIKE: This is off
a Rector set wheel.

940
00:33:29,608 --> 00:33:31,076
JERSEY: Right, and these
are gas line pieces.

941
00:33:31,243 --> 00:33:32,277
MIKE: That's a taillight.

942
00:33:32,444 --> 00:33:34,713
Did he ever have a show?
Did he ever have an art show?

943
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:35,881
JESSE: He did.

944
00:33:36,047 --> 00:33:37,682
JERSEY: The skill he
had in both worlds

945
00:33:37,849 --> 00:33:39,718
and how he
brought them together,

946
00:33:39,885 --> 00:33:41,553
that's what's amazing to me.

947
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:43,121
MIKE: Oh, my gosh, Jersey.
(laugh)

948
00:33:43,221 --> 00:33:44,689
Here, put that on.
I'll help you, man.

949
00:33:44,789 --> 00:33:46,291
JERSEY: This goes like that.

950
00:33:46,391 --> 00:33:47,726
MIKE: Yeah, there you go.

951
00:33:47,826 --> 00:33:49,528
ERLINE: See? See, right there?

952
00:33:49,628 --> 00:33:52,264
JESSE: We need to figure out
a plan as far as

953
00:33:52,430 --> 00:33:55,166
how we can organize it,
showcase it.

954
00:33:55,267 --> 00:33:56,334
MIKE: Whoa.

955
00:33:56,434 --> 00:33:58,803
You need to be holding this
while you got the pack on.

956
00:33:58,904 --> 00:34:00,171
JERSEY: Yeah, yeah,
yeah, exactly.

957
00:34:00,272 --> 00:34:01,840
MIKE: Look at that. That's hot.

958
00:34:01,940 --> 00:34:02,908
JERSEY: Boom!

959
00:34:03,074 --> 00:34:04,843
MIKE: Here, wait. Let me
take your picture, man.

960
00:34:04,943 --> 00:34:07,646
JESSE: Not necessarily sell it,
but just have people appreciate

961
00:34:07,746 --> 00:34:10,048
the stuff my dad did because
the original thing he wanted

962
00:34:10,148 --> 00:34:12,083
to do in his life
was be an artist,

963
00:34:12,183 --> 00:34:14,152
and this is a way to make
that full circle for him.

964
00:34:14,319 --> 00:34:16,087
MIKE: And then he made
the guitars, too?

965
00:34:16,187 --> 00:34:17,289
JESSE: Yeah.

966
00:34:17,389 --> 00:34:18,757
MIKE: Look at that bicycle
pedal jersey.

967
00:34:18,857 --> 00:34:20,058
JERSEY: Oh, yeah. It's moving.

968
00:34:20,225 --> 00:34:21,660
ERLINE: Those are Venetian
blind tassel cords.

969
00:34:21,826 --> 00:34:23,628
JERSEY: It's so cool.
He spent some time doing that.

970
00:34:23,795 --> 00:34:24,829
MIKE: Wow.

971
00:34:24,996 --> 00:34:27,399
His father was
an incredible artist.

972
00:34:27,499 --> 00:34:30,235
Oh, my. Look at that!
Is this something you'd sell?

973
00:34:30,402 --> 00:34:32,003
ERLINE: No.
MIKE: No?

974
00:34:32,170 --> 00:34:35,073
I mean, I truly believe that
he could have made a living

975
00:34:35,240 --> 00:34:37,442
making things like this
and selling them.

976
00:34:37,542 --> 00:34:39,210
JERSEY: He painted that?
ERLINE: Yeah.

977
00:34:39,311 --> 00:34:41,079
All of these are his,
he did everything.

978
00:34:41,179 --> 00:34:42,647
MIKE: Look at that jersey.
That's his, too.

979
00:34:42,747 --> 00:34:44,082
'74 he painted it.

980
00:34:44,182 --> 00:34:45,250
MIKE: Now that I see his art,

981
00:34:45,350 --> 00:34:47,719
I can see the connection
with the bicycles.

982
00:34:47,819 --> 00:34:50,422
JERSEY: Strap kink Harley.
MIKE: This is an early Harley.

983
00:34:50,588 --> 00:34:52,324
So many bicycle collectors.

984
00:34:52,424 --> 00:34:56,361
We look at our bikes as true
works of art because they are.

985
00:34:56,461 --> 00:34:58,930
MIKE: I would love to buy this.
ERLINE: Not going to happen.

986
00:34:59,030 --> 00:35:00,231
JESSE: 5 grand.

987
00:35:02,133 --> 00:35:03,368
(laughter)

988
00:35:06,171 --> 00:35:08,206
ROB: What the heck, dude?

989
00:35:08,306 --> 00:35:09,908
BYRON: Guy down in Ashland.

990
00:35:10,075 --> 00:35:11,643
That old chicken house
that we tore down.

991
00:35:11,810 --> 00:35:13,111
Put 160 foot back up.

992
00:35:13,278 --> 00:35:14,646
ROB: And you filled
it up with signs.

993
00:35:14,746 --> 00:35:16,414
BYRON: That's right.
Made it a little bit taller.

994
00:35:16,514 --> 00:35:19,851
ROB: Man, I got to ask.
Woo! The Frontier.

995
00:35:19,951 --> 00:35:21,987
ROB: Bam. What's in front of me?

996
00:35:22,153 --> 00:35:24,022
A Frontier gasoline sign.

997
00:35:24,189 --> 00:35:27,425
The most iconic gasoline sign
in the industry.

998
00:35:27,592 --> 00:35:29,995
BYRON: I bought that online
in a Texaco pole.

999
00:35:30,095 --> 00:35:32,397
And I would take
$14,000 for it.

1000
00:35:32,497 --> 00:35:34,666
ROB: Dude, this is
probably one of the best

1001
00:35:34,833 --> 00:35:36,134
gas and oil signs
that's out there.

1002
00:35:36,234 --> 00:35:38,069
BYRON: Oh, absolutely.
ROB: I mean, hands down.

1003
00:35:38,236 --> 00:35:40,472
The Frontier gasoline sign was
made in two different versions.

1004
00:35:40,638 --> 00:35:42,173
This is the round version.

1005
00:35:42,273 --> 00:35:43,842
The other one
is a keyhole version.

1006
00:35:44,009 --> 00:35:46,578
That sign is the most
desirable with the pole.

1007
00:35:46,711 --> 00:35:48,213
ROB: These were always
made single-sided.

1008
00:35:48,313 --> 00:35:50,115
They actually had two of them
in a pole back to back.

1009
00:35:50,281 --> 00:35:51,616
BYRON: In the can.
That's right.

1010
00:35:51,716 --> 00:35:53,985
ROB: Yeah, in the can. A little
bit of condition issues.

1011
00:35:54,152 --> 00:35:56,421
A couple little things.
But nothing that's crazy.

1012
00:35:56,588 --> 00:35:57,922
Would you do 12.5?

1013
00:36:04,596 --> 00:36:05,230
ROB: It's just such
an iconic sign.

1014
00:36:05,230 --> 00:36:05,930
BYRON: It is.

1015
00:36:06,197 --> 00:36:08,767
ROB: This is a Frontier
gasoline sign.

1016
00:36:08,867 --> 00:36:11,236
The most iconic gasoline
sign in the industry.

1017
00:36:11,403 --> 00:36:13,605
BYRON: I would take
$14,000 for it.

1018
00:36:13,705 --> 00:36:15,240
ROB: Would you do 12.5?

1019
00:36:22,180 --> 00:36:24,416
BYRON: Robbie, you know,
you already bought

1020
00:36:24,516 --> 00:36:27,285
a good bit of stuff from me.
Uh, I'll do 12.5.

1021
00:36:27,385 --> 00:36:29,421
ROB: Dude.
BYRON: Yes, sir.

1022
00:36:29,587 --> 00:36:31,189
ROB: I'm happy as can be.
BYRON: I know that.

1023
00:36:31,356 --> 00:36:33,358
ROB: I figured I had to get at
least one good sign

1024
00:36:33,458 --> 00:36:35,060
bought out of the pile.
This is the good one.

1025
00:36:35,226 --> 00:36:36,361
BYRON: Yes, sir.
Probably the best.

1026
00:36:36,461 --> 00:36:37,429
ROB: All right, man.
That's awesome.

1027
00:36:37,595 --> 00:36:40,198
ROB: I was so blinded
by the Frontier sign,

1028
00:36:40,298 --> 00:36:43,001
I didn't even see the short box
truck in the room.

1029
00:36:43,168 --> 00:36:45,203
I got to ask about this.
BYRON: That's right. Yes, sir.

1030
00:36:45,370 --> 00:36:47,839
ROB: Was it a '74?
BYRON: It's a '73.

1031
00:36:47,939 --> 00:36:49,240
ROB: '73. Wow.

1032
00:36:49,340 --> 00:36:50,875
BYRON: I bought this truck
10 years ago or more.

1033
00:36:51,042 --> 00:36:53,611
When our son turned 40,

1034
00:36:53,712 --> 00:36:56,748
Tim, he actually passed
away seven years ago.

1035
00:36:56,915 --> 00:36:58,083
Had a massive heart attack.

1036
00:36:58,249 --> 00:37:00,251
ROB: Sorry to hear that.

1037
00:37:00,351 --> 00:37:02,487
BYRON: We gave that to him
for his 40th birthday.

1038
00:37:02,587 --> 00:37:04,589
BYRON: Tim never had
an older vehicle,

1039
00:37:04,756 --> 00:37:06,958
but he just loved it when we
gave it to him for his birthday.

1040
00:37:07,058 --> 00:37:09,194
BYRON: He's an Alabama fan.
ROB: Alabama all the way.

1041
00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:11,463
BYRON: He's an Alabama fan.
ROB: All day long. Roll tide.

1042
00:37:11,629 --> 00:37:13,631
BYRON: He got a red shaker
in the seat of that truck.

1043
00:37:13,798 --> 00:37:16,000
And on Saturday morning,
he'd have that shaker going

1044
00:37:16,167 --> 00:37:18,169
ready for roll tide, you know.
(laughs)

1045
00:37:18,269 --> 00:37:19,838
It's just a special truck.

1046
00:37:20,004 --> 00:37:22,574
And maybe some of the grandkids
might want it later.

1047
00:37:22,674 --> 00:37:24,442
This is where I need to
start crying.

1048
00:37:24,542 --> 00:37:26,177
(laughs)
ROB: Oh, yeah. I don't know.

1049
00:37:26,277 --> 00:37:27,879
You probably, you know,
for as many pole signs

1050
00:37:28,046 --> 00:37:29,247
as you've got, Byron,

1051
00:37:29,347 --> 00:37:32,050
I don't think this one's going
to put a dent in any of them.

1052
00:37:32,150 --> 00:37:33,718
BYRON: Maybe not.
ROB: There we go.

1053
00:37:33,818 --> 00:37:34,953
Roll 'er in there.

1054
00:37:35,053 --> 00:37:36,387
BYRON: I'll tell you,
they're a lot alike.

1055
00:37:36,554 --> 00:37:37,722
They're both real
friendly and nice.

1056
00:37:37,822 --> 00:37:40,191
They're fortunate to have
each other for brothers.

1057
00:37:40,358 --> 00:37:41,659
Absolutely.

1058
00:37:41,826 --> 00:37:44,395
And I'm sure they get a little
scuffle every once in a while.

1059
00:37:44,496 --> 00:37:45,563
(laughs)

1060
00:37:45,663 --> 00:37:48,166
I did help this time, didn't I?
ROB: I know you did.

1061
00:37:48,266 --> 00:37:50,435
You did. You did. I like that.

1062
00:37:50,602 --> 00:37:52,971
Buddy, I can't thank you enough.
BYRON: Thank you too, brother.

1063
00:37:53,071 --> 00:37:55,673
ROB: Send me pictures when your
grandson's driving that truck.

1064
00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:56,908
BYRON: I will.
ROB: Appreciate it.

1065
00:37:57,075 --> 00:37:58,042
BYRON: Yes, sir.
Appreciate you. Yeah.

1066
00:37:58,143 --> 00:38:00,011
ROB: Byron's been doing
this for over 50 years.

1067
00:38:00,111 --> 00:38:02,914
The fact that the guy
still has the passion

1068
00:38:03,081 --> 00:38:05,950
for all this stuff,
hopefully that's me someday.

1069
00:38:06,117 --> 00:38:07,685
BYRON: Keep in
between the ditches.

1070
00:38:07,786 --> 00:38:10,388
ROB: Come see us in Iowa.
BYRON: Okay, I will!

1071
00:38:14,626 --> 00:38:17,595
ERLINE: Okay, guys. Let's look
for the motor. Right this way.

1072
00:38:17,762 --> 00:38:19,564
MIKE: All right, Jersey.

1073
00:38:19,664 --> 00:38:21,633
ERLINE: See that gray tape?

1074
00:38:21,733 --> 00:38:23,968
JERSEY: Oh, I see it.
There it is. Yeah.

1075
00:38:24,068 --> 00:38:25,436
Pull it out of there Mike.

1076
00:38:25,603 --> 00:38:26,571
MIKE: I got you.
ERLINE: It's heavy.

1077
00:38:26,671 --> 00:38:28,506
MIKE: I got you. Ah!

1078
00:38:29,874 --> 00:38:32,410
MIKE: Whoa. Is this table
gonna hold it?

1079
00:38:32,510 --> 00:38:35,446
JESSE: Uh... There it should be.

1080
00:38:35,547 --> 00:38:38,416
MIKE: There you go, Jersey.
Oh, that's nice. Dang.

1081
00:38:39,017 --> 00:38:41,719
JERSEY: Pull the bottom out.
MIKE: All right. There we go.

1082
00:38:41,820 --> 00:38:46,291
Dang, man. That's really nice.
Woo! It's like jewelry.

1083
00:38:46,391 --> 00:38:48,593
JERSEY: You could tell from
the condition of this motor

1084
00:38:48,693 --> 00:38:50,228
that it was
professionally restored.

1085
00:38:50,395 --> 00:38:52,263
MIKE: So the motor being
done so nice, dude,

1086
00:38:52,430 --> 00:38:55,066
it's kind of like you'd have
to either age it

1087
00:38:55,233 --> 00:38:58,169
or it just inspires you to
have to do the whole bike.

1088
00:38:58,269 --> 00:39:00,071
JERSEY: Yeah. I mean, somebody
did a really amazing job

1089
00:39:00,238 --> 00:39:02,173
with this restoration
on this motor.

1090
00:39:02,273 --> 00:39:04,642
They polished the cases.
They originally were polished.

1091
00:39:04,809 --> 00:39:07,245
They were just like this when
they came out of the factory.

1092
00:39:07,412 --> 00:39:09,280
This bike is going to take
six months of work,

1093
00:39:09,380 --> 00:39:11,516
working on it every day
to bring it home, to finish it,

1094
00:39:11,683 --> 00:39:12,584
to make it work.

1095
00:39:12,750 --> 00:39:14,319
I'm working on these
right now in my shop.

1096
00:39:14,485 --> 00:39:16,321
So I understand them.
I appreciate them.

1097
00:39:16,421 --> 00:39:18,122
I'm kind of hyped up
on them right now.

1098
00:39:18,223 --> 00:39:20,124
He's gotten
pretty far on the project.

1099
00:39:20,225 --> 00:39:23,228
MIKE: Their main goal
is to find somebody

1100
00:39:23,394 --> 00:39:25,363
to bring the bike to fruition,

1101
00:39:25,463 --> 00:39:26,798
to complete the bike

1102
00:39:26,898 --> 00:39:28,366
just like Jesse Sr.

1103
00:39:28,466 --> 00:39:29,767
would have wanted it done.

1104
00:39:29,868 --> 00:39:33,004
He's a good guy because
he can do all this himself,

1105
00:39:33,171 --> 00:39:35,173
where a lot of guys have to
keep writing the checks.

1106
00:39:35,273 --> 00:39:36,441
ERLINE: We've been
there, done that.

1107
00:39:36,541 --> 00:39:37,642
JERSEY: Yeah, right. Right.

1108
00:39:37,742 --> 00:39:40,311
JESSE: What's a freshly
restored Marsh-Metz go for?

1109
00:39:40,478 --> 00:39:41,813
JERSEY: You know,
totally restored,

1110
00:39:41,913 --> 00:39:42,914
beautiful, fresh paint.

1111
00:39:43,081 --> 00:39:44,716
They only go for like $32,000.

1112
00:39:44,882 --> 00:39:46,317
Sometimes, you know,
a little bit less.

1113
00:39:46,484 --> 00:39:48,086
MIKE: Yeah, you might see one
creep up to about $35,000.

1114
00:39:48,186 --> 00:39:49,721
JERSEY: Every little
reproduction parts,

1115
00:39:49,821 --> 00:39:51,322
the value goes down.
Boom, boom, boom, boom.

1116
00:39:51,422 --> 00:39:53,391
MIKE: When you think about,
like, okay, what is it

1117
00:39:53,558 --> 00:39:55,326
going to take to
get it to the next level?

1118
00:39:55,426 --> 00:39:58,863
If it was mocked up and, like,
get it so it actually looks

1119
00:39:59,030 --> 00:40:01,299
like something,
it's probably worth

1120
00:40:01,466 --> 00:40:03,534
$12,000 to $15,000.

1121
00:40:03,635 --> 00:40:05,169
JESSE: Because
it's not all original?

1122
00:40:05,270 --> 00:40:08,172
JERSEY: Not only that, but it's
still got a long journey to go

1123
00:40:08,273 --> 00:40:09,440
to put this bike
back together again

1124
00:40:09,540 --> 00:40:10,908
as a beautifully restored bike.

1125
00:40:11,075 --> 00:40:12,510
You know, this motor
is actually there.

1126
00:40:12,677 --> 00:40:14,812
This motor is ready to
rock and roll. It's beautiful.

1127
00:40:14,912 --> 00:40:16,881
MIKE: So what he's talking about
now is making the rest of it

1128
00:40:17,048 --> 00:40:18,116
look like this.

1129
00:40:18,283 --> 00:40:20,251
JESSE: We can scuff it up for
you if you want. (laughs)

1130
00:40:20,351 --> 00:40:23,087
JERSEY: No, I don't think that's
the way to go with this motor.

1131
00:40:23,187 --> 00:40:26,190
MIKE: I think to sell it to
Jersey in the condition it's in

1132
00:40:26,357 --> 00:40:27,759
is meeting their goal.

1133
00:40:27,926 --> 00:40:29,527
Because at the end of the day,
they want it complete.

1134
00:40:29,627 --> 00:40:31,596
And he's a guy
that can obviously do that.

1135
00:40:31,696 --> 00:40:33,932
JERSEY: I'm certainly interested
in it the way it is

1136
00:40:34,032 --> 00:40:35,833
as a big pile, a big project.

1137
00:40:35,967 --> 00:40:38,202
But we've got to come up with
a number that makes sense to me.

1138
00:40:38,303 --> 00:40:40,038
JESSE: All right, so what
are you thinking?

1139
00:40:41,940 --> 00:40:43,441
JERSEY: You know, 10 grand.

1140
00:40:43,541 --> 00:40:44,976
That's where I've
got to be on it.

1141
00:40:45,076 --> 00:40:47,278
JESSE: That's the motor
and all the pieces of it?

1142
00:40:47,445 --> 00:40:49,147
JERSEY: Yeah, all the parts
and pieces, all the motor,

1143
00:40:49,314 --> 00:40:52,050
the rusty parts too. I think
that's a very fair offer.

1144
00:40:52,150 --> 00:40:54,752
JESSE: It was good to hear the
reality of what the bike

1145
00:40:54,852 --> 00:40:58,723
was worth versus what we had
always just kind of not known.

1146
00:40:58,823 --> 00:41:00,291
MIKE: Sounds like
you're buying it.

1147
00:41:00,391 --> 00:41:01,926
JERSEY: I don't know.
Am I buying it?

1148
00:41:04,162 --> 00:41:04,996
ERLINE: Yes, you are.

1149
00:41:05,163 --> 00:41:06,597
MIKE: Ah!

1150
00:41:06,764 --> 00:41:08,032
JERSEY: (laughs)
ERLINE: Thank you.

1151
00:41:08,132 --> 00:41:09,834
JERSEY: Thank you so much.
I really appreciate it.

1152
00:41:09,934 --> 00:41:11,402
JESSE: Thanks for taking it on.
JERSEY: No, absolutely.

1153
00:41:11,569 --> 00:41:13,204
I thank you so much.
It means a lot to me.

1154
00:41:13,304 --> 00:41:14,372
JESSE: He would want this done.

1155
00:41:14,472 --> 00:41:15,840
JERSEY: It's going
to the right place.

1156
00:41:15,940 --> 00:41:18,676
And I think that he's
smiling right now, you know.

1157
00:41:18,843 --> 00:41:20,812
MIKE: Alright,
you grab the engine.

1158
00:41:20,912 --> 00:41:22,613
And we'll grab
the rest of the stuff.

1159
00:41:22,714 --> 00:41:24,315
JERSEY: Alright,
let's get out of here. Yep.

1160
00:41:24,482 --> 00:41:26,517
MIKE: Alright, man.
This is awesome.

1161
00:41:26,617 --> 00:41:28,953
JESSE: It was cool to see them
put together the blueprint

1162
00:41:29,120 --> 00:41:30,555
that he had laid out

1163
00:41:30,655 --> 00:41:32,957
that we would have never been
able to figure out on our own.

1164
00:41:33,124 --> 00:41:34,359
ERLINE:
And take it to completion.

1165
00:41:34,525 --> 00:41:36,461
ERLINE: We know that they can
take it to the finish line.

1166
00:41:36,627 --> 00:41:39,130
MIKE: Alright. We did it. Hey.
JESSE: This is great.

1167
00:41:39,230 --> 00:41:42,467
MIKE: I love that you guys are
keeping some of this stuff.

1168
00:41:42,633 --> 00:41:44,435
That's very cool.
ERLINE: Thank you, Mike.

1169
00:41:44,602 --> 00:41:45,770
MIKE: Your husband had
a beautiful eye.

1170
00:41:45,870 --> 00:41:47,805
ERLINE: Yes, he did.
MIKE: In more ways than one.

1171
00:41:47,972 --> 00:41:49,307
ERLINE: Oh, well, thank you.
Thank you.

1172
00:41:49,474 --> 00:41:51,642
MIKE: I love that they're
keeping so many of the things

1173
00:41:51,809 --> 00:41:54,645
that meant so much
to him and them.

1174
00:41:54,779 --> 00:41:56,347
JERSEY: The Marsh-Metz is
going to a good home.

1175
00:41:56,514 --> 00:41:58,082
JESSE: Yeah. Thank you.
God bless. See you in Iowa.

1176
00:41:58,249 --> 00:41:59,784
JESSE: I want to see
the Blue Bird.

1177
00:41:59,951 --> 00:42:02,420
MIKE: And I love that it's
important to them to find homes

1178
00:42:02,587 --> 00:42:05,223
for these projects
and finish them

1179
00:42:05,390 --> 00:42:07,191
the way Jesse would
want them to be.

1180
00:42:07,358 --> 00:42:09,761
JERSEY: Hey, come see us.
JESSE: Alright. We will.

1181
00:42:09,861 --> 00:42:11,662
ERLINE: Thank you.
JESSE: See ya.
