  SPEAKER_01: And uh banks wanted out of everything automotive, no matter what it was.
• 6:10
  SPEAKER_01: And you know, the recession pretty much tanked business.
• 6:14
  SPEAKER_01: And so at the time we had never we had never asked the banks for any kind of money ever in our history.
• 6:22
  SPEAKER_01: And uh they wouldn't support us.
• 6:26
  SPEAKER_01: So we had to start looking for partners, lots of consultants, all that.
• 6:31
  SPEAKER_01: You know, it was a change for a lot.
• 6:33
  Don Armstrong: Because you inherited the company from your dad.
• 6:36

• 6:41
  Don Armstrong: Okay.
• 6:41

  Don Armstrong: Sure.
• 7:33
  SPEAKER_01: You know, so it was uh always a family business.
• 7:36
  Don Armstrong: So when you were when you were that young, your dad was still alive, would did he ever explain to you and and and school you on exactly what a manifold is?
• 7:47
  Don Armstrong: I assume that he did.
• 7:49
  SPEAKER_01: Well, a manifold was pretty easy to figure out compared to other products or component parts.
• 7:57
  SPEAKER_01: Uh we built two aluminum foundries in San Yacento.
• 8:00
  SPEAKER_01: Oh wow.
• 8:01
  SPEAKER_01: I worked at the first one uh that we built, the Green Sandcast Foundry for ten years, figured all that out.
• 8:08
  SPEAKER_01: I knew nothing about the foundry business.
• 8:10
  SPEAKER_01: I I I was uh competing in show jumping, Olympic show show jumping before that and had uh my own business.
• 8:17
  SPEAKER_01: Wow.
• 8:17
  SPEAKER_01: And so then I moved to corporate in Torrance.
• 8:21
  SPEAKER_01: That's where our manufacturing facilities were, and corporate offices and that.
• 8:27
  Don Armstrong: And it's a very industrial area, isn't it, Torrance?
• 8:30
  SPEAKER_01: Kind of, but now it's uh the the homes around where our our facility used to be are over a million dollars.
• 8:37
  SPEAKER_01: That doesn't surprise me, yeah.
• 8:39
  Jeff Dziekan: Well the industry brought it in, obviously.
• 8:41
  Jeff Dziekan: Yeah.
• 8:42
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 8:42
  SPEAKER_01: So my dad had a tendency of putting me in places that there were issues and he needed help, and so I kind of became like the fixer, you know, shooter, yeah.
• 8:53
  SPEAKER_01: Running to the flames, and um because I grew up with we had a lot of long-term employees, that it was their one and only job, and they watched me grow up.
• 9:04
  SPEAKER_01: So when we were working together, they'd be like, No, I'm not gonna tell you what that is, that keeper, you know.
• 9:12
  SPEAKER_01: The keeper, yes.
• 9:14
  SPEAKER_01: They'd have all these little nicknames and things.
• 9:16
  SPEAKER_01: So I'd go out to the shop, get a keeper, figure out what it did.
• 9:21
  SPEAKER_01: I taught myself how to read blueprints.
• 9:23
  SPEAKER_01: Wow, you know, because that is awesome.

• 9:36
  SPEAKER_01: Perfect.
• 9:37
  SPEAKER_01: And he said, No.
• 9:38
  SPEAKER_01: Well, I said, What do you mean, no?

  Jeff Dziekan: You know, absolutely and we we talk with a lot of folks through through the educational systems where you know the shops and uh the dealerships and uh what you can do, all the avenues you have out of school or maybe taking some co-op classes and interning.

  SPEAKER_01: No question is, you know, too small, too big.
• 10:57
  SPEAKER_01: Uh get out there and teach yourself.
• 11:00
  SPEAKER_01: You know, my grandfather was self-taught.
• 11:03
  SPEAKER_01: Uh the family business in Eldora, Kansas was a grocery store, and the grocery store burnt down.
• 11:09
  SPEAKER_01: My grandfather was 14, so he and his older brother went to California, the land of opportunity, to make money to send back to the family to rebuild the grocery store.
• 11:22
  SPEAKER_01: And so my grandfather just started reading books, you know, playing around, tinkering, all of that, just like Henry Ford.
• 11:30
  SPEAKER_01: You put a tool in someone's hand and look what happens, you know?
• 11:34
  SPEAKER_01: And two weeks before Pearl Harbor, my grandfather went 122 miles an hour on the dry lake bedroom.
• 11:43
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and people were just like, What?
• 11:45
  SPEAKER_01: Amazed.
• 11:46
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
• 11:47
  SPEAKER_01: It was his daily driver that he flat toed out there.
• 11:50
  SPEAKER_01: He didn't even have a truck, nothing.
• 11:53
  SPEAKER_01: And you know, streamlined the whole thing.
• 11:55
  SPEAKER_01: No oil pump.
• 11:56
  SPEAKER_01: You can see them all crouched down, you know, one hand on the steering wheel, the other hand through the wheel, working the pump.
• 12:03
  SPEAKER_01: And that's what started it all.
• 12:05
  SPEAKER_01: And then post-war, you know, the hot rod era started to flourish.
• 12:11
  SPEAKER_01: And, you know, racing midgets from San Diego to Santa Barbara five days a week.
• 12:18
  SPEAKER_01: And, you know, later, um people would come up to me and say, you know, if your grandfather hadn't have done what he did, hot rotting wouldn't be what it is.
• 12:27
  SPEAKER_01: That's exactly true.
• 12:28
  SPEAKER_01: That's very true.
• 12:29
  SPEAKER_01: And the first time someone told me that, I almost fell over.
• 12:32
  SPEAKER_01: I'm like, what?
• 12:32
  SPEAKER_01: What are you talking about?
• 12:34
  Jeff Dziekan: And you look around, you just look around this event, you know, how many of the Edelbrock products are on these vehicles?
• 12:40
  Jeff Dziekan: Yeah.
• 12:40
  Jeff Dziekan: Probably many on just one.
• 12:43
  SPEAKER_03: And not only that, but the influence of those Edelbrock products early on that that led to other people building.
• 12:49
  SPEAKER_03: And the copycats sort of.
• 12:50
  SPEAKER_03: Well, the copycats, but still it's just part of the industry has grown because of people like your grandfather.
• 12:56
  Don Armstrong: And let's not forget that that that we started off with the low rise, you know, two-barrel carburetor uh intake manifold, and you know, I'm gonna put a four four barrel on it.
• 13:06
  Don Armstrong: And then and then it wasn't enough.
• 13:08
  Don Armstrong: Let's put a high rise on it.
• 13:10
  Don Armstrong: So it was this constant grocery store of manifolds for me anyway.
• 13:15
  SPEAKER_01: New product.
• 13:16
  SPEAKER_01: We were super big on new product, you know, very foot forward in that entity there.
• 13:21
  SPEAKER_01: And um, you know, I mean, we're older than NASCAR, NHRA, Hot Rod Magazine, all of that.
• 13:29
  Don Armstrong: And influenced all of those.
• 13:30
  Don Armstrong: All of it.
• 13:31
  SPEAKER_01: Right.
• 13:32
  SPEAKER_01: We were the only ones with a dyno, you know, so the teams would come actually to Southern California, work with our guys on the dyno.
• 13:39
  SPEAKER_01: Murray Jensen, a guy that worked with my grandfather.
• 13:42
  SPEAKER_01: He he handled all the NASCAR guys, and you know, I mean, they had a hell of a good time hanging out in our place.
• 13:49
  Don Armstrong: Sure.
• 13:50
  Don Armstrong: I'm sure.
• 13:50
  Don Armstrong: I can only imagine.
• 13:52
  SPEAKER_01: And I didn't get to go in the dino room, darn it.
• 13:55
  SPEAKER_01: I said, Dad, what if uh you my tire goes flat?
• 13:58
  SPEAKER_01: Well, just call us.
• 13:59
  SPEAKER_01: I'm like, no, I want to know how to change the tire.
• 14:03
  Don Armstrong: I figured it out later in life, you know, but I'm sure that I'm sure that he was a helping hand in a lot of your projects that you had when you're going through this educational, self-educational stuff that you were going through.
• 14:15
  Don Armstrong: Dad, how do you do this or why did you do that?
• 14:17
  Don Armstrong: And I would imagine that he would explain.
• 14:19
  SPEAKER_01: My dad was just a great storyteller, you know.
• 14:23
  SPEAKER_01: Um, you know, just so many memories of all the years experiences.
• 14:30
  SPEAKER_01: Yes.
• 14:30
  SPEAKER_01: And, you know, uh Vic Sr.
• 14:32
  SPEAKER_01: was not an easy guy.
• 14:34
  SPEAKER_01: You know, he passed away at 49.
• 14:36
  SPEAKER_01: And he and Katie, you know, my grandmother, um, you know, depression, you know, lived through all of that.
• 14:44
  SPEAKER_01: Grandma Katie, she worked for a family in Beverly Hills as a as a maid and lived with the family four days a week.
• 14:53
  SPEAKER_01: Went home on Friday night, and she saved her money from that job to buy the very first pattern for the flathead.
• 15:03
  SPEAKER_01: Really?
• 15:04
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 15:05
  SPEAKER_01: Wow.

  SPEAKER_01: So it was totally grassroots, you know, and that's that's the whole family.
• 15:10
  SPEAKER_01: No, totally.
• 15:10
  SPEAKER_01: That's the way we grew up, you know.
• 15:13
  SPEAKER_01: We were working every summer.
• 15:15
  SPEAKER_01: Um, when we were little, it was really cool because we charged for catalogs back in the day.
• 15:21
  SPEAKER_01: And people would write letters in.
• 15:23
  Don Armstrong: I forgot that.
• 15:24
  Don Armstrong: You used to charge for catalogs.

  Don Armstrong: Yes.
• 15:27
  SPEAKER_01: Why not?

• 15:31
  SPEAKER_01: And and people would tape four quarters across the bottom of the letter, you know.
• 15:35
  SPEAKER_01: So here we are with my grandmother.
• 15:37
  SPEAKER_01: You know, we take the quarters off, we stuff the envelopes and everything, and all our friends are at the beach, you know.

  Jeff Dziekan: Now the big thing is not going to college, taking up a trade, uh making starting a business.
• 16:51
  Jeff Dziekan: So that's kind of the talk going on now in this twenty-first century for these young folks.
• 16:56
  Jeff Dziekan: Uh, but that's also good.
• 16:58
  Jeff Dziekan: Uh good point to make because I got a granddaughter that wants to be a nurse.
• 17:01
  Jeff Dziekan: Yeah, that you do require college for that.
• 17:04
  Jeff Dziekan: Uh but if you want to have somebody that wants to work on a car, well then you have to get into the automotive side of it.
• 17:09
  Jeff Dziekan: Not necessarily college, but there's other avenues you can do.
• 17:12
  Jeff Dziekan: So yeah, I I agree with that.
• 17:14
  SPEAKER_01: What keeps some of the young people of getting into automotive is you know, they don't want to work at a dealership where you just plug it into the diagnostic.
• 17:22
  SPEAKER_01: You know, because that's not a DLB, yeah.
• 17:24
  SPEAKER_01: Right.
• 17:25
  SPEAKER_01: And so, you know, we've got Grand Bury High is a great automotive program, you know, all all this passion here.
• 17:32
  SPEAKER_01: And so what I share is just, you know, get some passionate about something.
• 17:39
  SPEAKER_01: And you know, get your hands dirty and start something small and stay under the radar.
• 17:46
  SPEAKER_01: You don't need to be a big, big company, you know?
• 17:49
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, but uh that's back to the social media thing.
• 17:52
  SPEAKER_03: It's got these younger kids so trained that that's that's the important part.
• 17:56
  SPEAKER_03: Well, it's 20 years ago it was nothing.
• 17:58
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, right.
• 17:59
  SPEAKER_01: Have them come to you.
• 18:00
  SPEAKER_01: Right, right.
• 18:01
  SPEAKER_01: Social media is toxic.
• 18:03
  SPEAKER_01: I think we need to work hard to move that, you know, to the past.
• 18:07
  SPEAKER_01: It has some good benefits, but not all the time.
• 18:12
  SPEAKER_01: You know, we don't need to advertise and market only on Facebook.
• 18:16
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 18:16
  Don Armstrong: I think that's a real Although we do love you, Facebook, for taking this show live right now.
• 18:22
  Don Armstrong: There is that.
• 18:23
  Don Armstrong: So thank you for that aspect of it.
• 18:24
  Don Armstrong: Don't tune, don't turn it off, don't turn it off.
• 18:27
  Don Armstrong: We're not only on Facebook, there's other avenues too, but that's just one of the things that we're doing.
• 18:31
  Don Armstrong: You know the gist of the going in.
• 18:33
  Don Armstrong: That was a good point.
• 18:34
  Don Armstrong: Touche.
• 18:35
  Don Armstrong: Yeah.
• 18:36
  SPEAKER_01: Well, listening is one thing.
• 18:37
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 18:40
  Don Armstrong: That's true.
• 18:41
  Don Armstrong: And uh, you know, we've we've done okay over the years doing this show, so uh we're we're we're happy with that.
• 18:46
  Jeff Dziekan: Do you have any other projects going, personal projects that you're involved in with the company or not with the company right now.
• 18:53
  SPEAKER_01: I'm busy.
• 18:54
  SPEAKER_01: I have eleven acres on the north end of the lake.
• 18:57
  SPEAKER_01: Okay.
• 18:57
  Don Armstrong: You need somebody to mow it once in a while, or David's got a mower.
• 19:00
  Jeff Dziekan: David's got a lawnmower.
• 19:02
  SPEAKER_01: I need lots of things, and and that's where I've seen the gaps and the opportunities here because you know this town is growing pretty quickly.
• 19:12
  SPEAKER_01: And so now while the opportunities are out there still, you know, that's when you want to get involved to get your feet wet.
• 19:19
  SPEAKER_01: And you don't need a college education to, you know, have a long business.
• 19:24
  Don Armstrong: But you know what the one the one thing is the personal satisfaction that you get out of success in whatever it is that you choose.
• 19:31
  Don Armstrong: And people forget that.
• 19:34
  Don Armstrong: And you know, it's kind of like rebuilding an engine and you crank it up for the first time and it runs, you go, see, all those weeks of work that I put in it, there it is.
• 19:44
  Don Armstrong: Yeah, and the naysayers.
• 19:46
  Don Armstrong: You can't you can't buy that, you have to do it yourself in this huge sense of right.
• 19:52
  SPEAKER_03: Well, no, you can't.
• 19:53
  SPEAKER_01: Right.
• 19:53
  SPEAKER_01: And it's an accomplishment.
• 19:55
  SPEAKER_01: And you know, so what does social media give you?
• 19:58
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, I want to be an influencer, you know, and and i is that an accomplishment, you know, because 90% of the product that they're promoting is not any good anyway.
• 20:09
  SPEAKER_01: So, you know, I think honesty is the best policy.
• 20:12
  SPEAKER_01: Hard work, don't be shy, go up and extend your hand and introduce yourself.
• 20:18
  SPEAKER_01: You just never know who you're gonna meet.
• 20:20
  SPEAKER_03: That's true.
• 20:20
  SPEAKER_03: You know, we get to meet you.
• 20:22
  SPEAKER_01: Just like you're all looking so handsome.
• 20:28
  Don Armstrong: Listen, we we our shirts are all prepped and the knives and everything.
• 20:31
  Don Armstrong: Very impressed.
• 20:33
  SPEAKER_00: Don't be talking about t-shirts and won't even recognize you by that, right?
• 20:42
  SPEAKER_00: That's it.
• 20:43
  Don Armstrong: Uh well, it is uh an honor and pleasure uh to have you here and to meet you.
• 20:47
  Don Armstrong: Thank you very much.
• 20:48
  Don Armstrong: What a wonderful person.
• 20:49
  Don Armstrong: Uh yeah.
• 20:50
  Don Armstrong: And uh great history, great family, and uh uh I'm I'm impressed.
• 20:56
  Jeff Dziekan: You're not the type of person that gets tired of talking about it.
• 20:59
  SPEAKER_01: No, no, because you know, I I spent so much time with my parents, with their friends when I was younger.
• 21:07
  SPEAKER_01: I enjoyed hanging out with their friends more than I did people my own age.
• 21:11
  SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
• 21:12
  SPEAKER_01: And so it was a lot of life skills that I learned because of that, because my parents took us to a lot of places when we were young.
• 21:19
  SPEAKER_01: And again, that's an opportunity.
• 21:23
  SPEAKER_01: And you know, I was shy as a kid, and you know, you just gotta learn to stand up for yourself, speak out, get involved, and and be passionate about what you're doing, no matter what it is.
• 21:34
  SPEAKER_01: And you'll have multiple passions, which is even better.
• 21:38
  SPEAKER_01: You know, charitable initiatives, all of that.
• 21:40
  SPEAKER_01: Giving back is a very special thing.
• 21:43
  SPEAKER_01: And rewarding.
• 21:44
  SPEAKER_01: Very rewarding.
• 21:45
  Don Armstrong: Yep.
• 21:45
  SPEAKER_01: Yes.
• 21:46
  Don Armstrong: I spent uh twenty years as a volunteer at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, and part of me uh is what you see today because of that.
• 21:55
  Don Armstrong: Right.
• 21:56
  Don Armstrong: And I would have never guessed that when I first started out.
• 22:00
  Don Armstrong: And for the party, baby.
• 22:01
  SPEAKER_01: You know?
• 22:02
  Don Armstrong: But it evolved and it became a passion and uh you know, I will never forget it.
• 22:07
  Don Armstrong: And uh it that's what you're talking about.
• 22:09
  SPEAKER_01: I started a a charitable car show uh years ago in uh old town torrents.
• 22:15
  SPEAKER_01: I didn't have it around the company and our facilities.
• 22:19
  SPEAKER_01: Uh a young girl that I met, she wanted to get more into event planning and she had a small car show down in Redondo Beach.
• 22:27
  SPEAKER_01: I brought one of our collection.
• 22:30
  SPEAKER_01: Poor thing, she had like twenty cars.
• 22:32
  SPEAKER_01: And I said, Well, if you really want to do this, you know, let's get started and put something together.
• 22:37
  SPEAKER_03: Right.
• 22:38
  SPEAKER_01: And uh my son was going to study table after school, you know, because I was working till all hours of the night and by the time I got home h he sure as didn't want to do his homework with me.
• 22:52
  SPEAKER_01: And so the next the the first car show in Old Town Torrance, they gave us the whole town.
• 22:59
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, just went off with a hit, thank goodness.
• 23:02
  SPEAKER_01: Because the night before I was deathly afraid.
• 23:05
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, people will think they that I know what I'm doing in regards to a car show.
• 23:10
  SPEAKER_01: I have no idea.
• 23:11
  SPEAKER_01: No idea.
• 23:13
  SPEAKER_01: And so that was a huge hit.
• 23:15
  SPEAKER_01: And then I moved it to the corporate location around a distribution center, and of course I had to have a party the night before.
• 23:22
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah, yeah.
• 23:23
  SPEAKER_01: So we had a big gala party, we had silent auctions, we had these Letterman jackets for Edelbrock, and Jay Leno's a good friend, and you know, Parnelli Jones, and so I got all these guys to sign this Letterman jacket.
• 23:40
  SPEAKER_01: It sold for twenty thousand dollars.
• 23:43
  Don Armstrong: Way to go.
• 23:44
  SPEAKER_01: And that went so well, we put up another one and we got everyone else that was you know, that was there to sign it again.
• 23:51
  SPEAKER_01: Ed Iskandarian, you know, Ed Pink, you know, all of the great guys.
• 23:57
  Jeff Dziekan: But that's getting back to the first original show that she wanted to do that you supported her.
• 24:02
  Jeff Dziekan: That's what it is.
• 24:03
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 24:04
  SPEAKER_01: And it was over an eight year period we raised about six hundred thousand dollars for um a small school in the local area of Torrance uh that worked with complex challenged children.
• 24:18
  SPEAKER_01: And nine out of ten of these kids were one step into institutional care because their parents had no idea what to do with them, you know?
• 24:27
  SPEAKER_01: And you know, autism, Asperger's, those children, they're nine times out of ten they're brilliant, genius level.
• 24:35
  SPEAKER_01: But it's just how you connect with them.
• 24:38
  SPEAKER_01: Yes, and you know, our school systems, kids don't all learn the same way, you know.
• 24:44
  SPEAKER_01: So things evolve and we need to, you know, give them what they need.
• 24:50
  SPEAKER_01: So they say open them up to bring that out, stay inspired and want to move on and have a fruitful life, you know.
• 24:59
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.

• 28:16
  Jeff Dziekan: Yeah, well, I we haven't talked about Formula One in depth, or I haven't, and I haven't talked about Cadillac and I used to not like Formula One.
• 28:23
  Jeff Dziekan: Well, I'm I've I'm I gotta hanker in because of the Cadillac.
• 28:27
  Jeff Dziekan: I got you.

• 28:37
  Jeff Dziekan: Uh he stepped into Formula One this past weekend in Barcelona, which we're gonna talk about during the racing calendar if we get there.

• 28:45
  Jeff Dziekan: He's a 26-year-old American kid.
• 28:47
  Jeff Dziekan: Uh walked away from his successful career at Indy and joined the high-tech and Formula Two racing with an I on Formula One.
• 28:54
  Jeff Dziekan: And that's like the NXT series in Indy or the ARCA.
• 28:58

  Jeff Dziekan: Yeah, Catalunya.
• 29:16
  Jeff Dziekan: Uh i that's my Spanish.

  Jeff Dziekan: Go ahead.
• 29:21
  Jeff Dziekan: I speak Brazilian.
• 29:22
  Jeff Dziekan: Uh-huh.

  Jeff Dziekan: A little familiar with Brazilian, but not in that regard.
• 29:30
  Jeff Dziekan: Okay.
• 29:30
  Jeff Dziekan: Um how much does that cost you?
• 29:32
  Jeff Dziekan: Uh off of one of the uh FP1 sessions.
• 29:36
  Jeff Dziekan: I lost my place.
• 29:38
  Jeff Dziekan: He had a time in the simulator in Charlotte.
• 29:40
  Jeff Dziekan: He learned the track and the track procedures and you know, did all that on the off season.

  Jeff Dziekan: They got a track and all the good stuff.
• 29:53
  Jeff Dziekan: So uh long story short, for the minute, uh he's testing, he's gonna run the formula FP2, he's getting into Cadillac, and the person he's replacing uh is not happy.
• 30:03
  Jeff Dziekan: Perez is not happy because he hadn't been performing, but you know, they they kind of put him aside.
• 30:09
  Jeff Dziekan: So there you go.

• 30:25
  Jeff Dziekan: He's won the kids won some races, uh, but he hasn't won any championships or anything.
• 30:29
  Jeff Dziekan: Interesting.
• 30:30
  Jeff Dziekan: He's a good driver.
• 30:30
  Don Armstrong: You know, I have made fun of Mitsubishi for quite some time on this show.
• 30:34
  Jeff Dziekan: Like forever.
• 30:35
  Don Armstrong: Like forever, since day one.
• 30:37
  Don Armstrong: Well, they're trying to pump it up.
• 30:40
  Don Armstrong: We're going to pump a U.S.
• 30:42
  Don Armstrong: uh Mitsubishi will enter the increasingly crowded U.S.
• 30:46
  Don Armstrong: mid-size pickup segment with a new truck sourced from Nissan as it tries to lift its sagging business by siphoning sales from the market leading Toyota Tacoma, Chevy Colorado, and Ford Ranger.
• 31:03
  Don Armstrong: The new entry will be built by Nissan at a U.S.
• 31:06
  Don Armstrong: factory, according to a person familiar with the plan.
• 31:08
  Don Armstrong: Mitsubishi did not detail a launch timeline, but Nissan Frontier mid-size pickup is expected to get a redesign around 2028 as part of Nissan's rollout of a new frame-based vehicle architecture that will underpin the Xterra SUV and other products built at its Canton, Mississippi plant.
• 31:29
  Don Armstrong: Pickup will be part of Mitsubishi's three-pronged plan for reviving the U.S.
• 31:34
  Don Armstrong: operations.
• 31:34
  Don Armstrong: And I will say this that they employ a lot of people, and as long as they don't build the car, they do great.
• 31:42
  Don Armstrong: I I don't remember the name of the vehicle that's been around for a while now, but when it first came out, I thought, well, dang, this is a pretty nice vehicle.
• 31:50
  Don Armstrong: We'll come to find out it was built by somebody else with the Mitsubishi name on it, and they put, you know, front and rear ends on it, and everything would look good.
• 31:56
  Jeff Dziekan: I got a feeling this one's gonna take off.
• 31:58
  Jeff Dziekan: It's probably gonna blow the doors off the ones that are out there.
• 32:00
  SPEAKER_03: Perhaps they're gonna it's gonna have to if it's gonna take from the Tacoma and uh mid-sized GM rocks.
• 32:07
  SPEAKER_03: I mean, even the Ford Ranger, the cities down there are buying Ford Rangers.
• 32:10
  Jeff Dziekan: It's gonna be like a Frankenstein type.
• 32:13
  Don Armstrong: Well, kind of.
• 32:14
  Don Armstrong: But they don't Frankenstein them like they used to.
• 32:17
  Jeff Dziekan: They're gonna take parts of this and parts of that, but uh, it's probably gonna take off, my my opinion.
• 32:22
  Don Armstrong: Let's hope.
• 32:22
  Jeff Dziekan: All right.
• 32:24
  Jeff Dziekan: Yeah.
• 32:25
  Don Armstrong: All right, uh, the in-wheel time car talk show needs to take a break.
• 32:28
  Don Armstrong: We're gonna be back at Hewlett Park and the Lone Star Street Rod Association State Run.
• 32:33
  Don Armstrong: So stay with us.
