motor was the right parts and he wasn't scared to spend money the lift is still here yeah so there's uh I got a picture of Mark Martin's car on that lift yeah it's it's a little dirty but yeah so a lift half a lift there and half lift is underneath there so did after yeah it still works it just we turn the uh we turned the everything off for it uh but yeah it's red red and tan now that's awesome and then the other things here I've tripped over numerous amounts of times but I had to cover it because it was a hazard it's too expensive to remove and plus we're car guys too so like eventually you know it would be nice to use it so this must be the mezzanine Mark told me a story cuz he said this half of the building was his and the other half was Allen's and the he said there was a mezzanine he could go up and there was a little hole in the wall where he could look through and see over here hole I don't I heard about it but I wasn't I the other guy with us is John Jeffords he was a volunteer on Allen's crew when he was racing in the late 7s before he' ever even ventured out of the Milwaukee area we were in town doing a HomeTown History tour video about Allen's early days which included the gunderman shop that he raced out of and this visit was not planned the guy here showing us around had no idea we were showing up we never talked to him in my life before and this visit really turned out to be something way cooler than we anticipated it's this kind we're talking about no I thought it was a little bit bigger last I forgot about all that but that way they can hear each other talk about the cars but who knows if that was just for SPO around purposes or not the lift in the floor still works too it's still there that's funny like you sent me one picture you found of that place and the thing I said was I wonder if the lift is still there like the holes well the holes are still there cuz the lift is still in the floor you know that was incredible to have a lift I mean that's the only time in my racing up to that point that I'd ever had a lift and then you know I never had a lift in you know my first years of NASCAR either yeah and it's so great to be able to stand underneath the car and work on it was like amazing everybody needs a LIF my dad bought a lot of trucks from this guy Jesse her down in Texas and we and gunman you know we built that car G to my govern sing me great we and I had a had sponsor I said let me work on so I called my dad and I said you know…
