(13,913 characters)know. Yeah, I suck at this. But we're going to do it anyway. Dude, I got goosebumps, dude. I'm so excited to shoot this right now. We're doing some stuff today. Making some custom tires. BF Goodbridge Allterrains. Kind of thinking, you know what? Those letters on these drag radios are kind of messed up. So, we just wiped them off. We're going to make some new ones. But, we're not making fake BFG Goodrich drag radials. We're making our own. And they're better. What you got going on over there? Oh, you know, just some little sneeze. I said it or it interesting note. We weighed that wheel and one of those. The Hooers with the welds weigh 47 lb and the Hooser DR2s on the 18-in GMC wheels weigh 56. So, there's a 12 lb difference between the two, which is honestly not as much as I was expecting, but it's still a decent chunk of uh rolling mass. This thing makes so much power it's not going to care. Also, Cooper spaghetti shirts. Pretty awesome. What you looking at, dog? He's still filming. What? He's still filming. Yeah. I'm trying to be nice and be quiet. Yo, trying Oh, well, go ahead. Do your thing. Cole, listen to this. Listen to what? Oh, was that Never mind. Oh, I guess we're going to divulge some information here. I'm going to have to stop filming. Cole Reynolds, go subscribe to him and don't ask me about a link cuz I can't do it cuz he doesn't have 1,000 subscribers. Use the search function. Use your brain. Type it in. Find him in the comments. If he's smart, he'll make a bunch of comments or reply to a bunch of people so he's easier to find. I'll do that. Yeah. Same. Adrian's always up in the comments. You could find him, too. I'm halfway there. So, 500 more people, we can start putting my link in there. Yeah. Adrien Barry Hill. My comment will be probably the second one down on this video most likely. Let's go here. I've cut this out. This little cricket thingy is like the probably the best thing I ever bought. Oh, no. No. No. Get back. She did the same thing at least. You can make some trip 7 stuff for the walls and John would really like that. What did I just walk in on here? Just trying to keep it from attacking the vinyl cutter. I think that sizing is going to be pretty good. We will separate it and see. All right, Cole, you stay there and work for sure. Stay. He's committed. Committed to winning. Committed to winning. I like Cole cuz he's like the same age that I was when I started doing stuff and he wants to do stuff. He is doing stuff. He's turned it up a lot even just as he's been hanging around here. Can't say I didn't do anything. She brought us coal. It's true. Let's get this separated. Now, if I really wanted to like get fancy, I would kind of like weed this and put it on transfer paper and then stick it to the tire. I really don't think that that level of precision is necessary here because I can just do this. Oh, this is perfect. That's where the old one was, All right, that's perfect. That is perfect. Need some tweezers and they need the D, too. You always give him the D. Give him the D. I didn't think it was going to stick this. Well, I did just clean it with a whole bunch of brake clean. We need some uh we need some of that painters tape. The masking tape, not painters tape. Okay, Dale, let's see your paint skills. Odd scenario here. So, I wouldn't really, you know, Yeah, I suck at this, but we're going to do it anyway. Okay. Really speed it up if you had a heat gun. There's got to be a heat. There's a little IR heater thing over there. Go get it, Dale. Be very, very quiet. Wheel hatching tires. Don't let it get too cold or the eggs will die. I won't. I'm a good mama. Oh, did you glass it over real nice? Oh, yeah. It's super shiny. All right. I got the big I got the big old fatty one ready to go here. I had it hanging on the back of the cart right here, but it's a little too low. Pretty close. Still tacky, but suck it, Cole. Let me take this off. Okay, boys. It's the grand reveal. I'm pretty excited. I'm not going to lie. I did three coats. Uh well, Mitchell did the first coat real light, just kind of dusted it on and then I put it under the the heat lamp and then once it was a little tacky. Do you think it's enough? Looking at looking at the light here, the top of the MF looks like it might be a little light. I mean, we could do more. You do another coat. That's three solid coats. So, no, actually, yeah. What do you think? Uh I think it's good to go, man. All right, let's rip it off. Slow like the very first MFOri bridged big old fatty. My god, it looks so freaking perfect. Yep. It's okay, bro. Oh my god, it looks factory. Dude, dude, I'm so excited right now. Oh my gosh. This is the kind of dumb creative stuff that gets me super pumped. You want to say that again after you hit puberty? It's a good idea. See, I had one little there. All right. Where's that X-acto knife? Dude, that looks so good. It looks freaking factory. It looks better than the Hooser did that came off of there. I'm so glad I just started taking the um the old letters off. Yeah, I just bit it. Oh, I didn't even ask you. I just did it. I'm glad you did, too. So money. Wait, let's let's roll it up and mock it up on a hub. You don't want to do the big old fatties yet? Let's do the big old fatties and then do it. Okay, let's do it. Okay. Delayed gratification. I got to pull this off. Stick to You'll get instant gratification. Yeah, they will. You will get the instant gratification. I have to work for it for your sake. So, you should subscribe cuz I'm, you know, I'm really taking one for the team here. So, we got the other side on. I'll cut out the other four or the other three of each of these. Then we can start laying them out. Yeah. Then the next three we can do in quantity like an assembly line. Bet you didn't think I was going to set up a paint shop in here, did you, Dad? It's for the paint skills. I'm using it to write funny things on tires. I wonder what the BFG guys are going to say about this. I don't know. Maybe they'll make a big old fatty line. Maybe. Maybe they'll start making drag radio deals again. Maybe they'll start making drag radios. Make drag radios great again. And they'll call them big old fatties. Make big old fatties great again. BFG. Big old fatty. Big old fatties. Both of them. Both of them. Man, that looks so good. I just look at it and I feel that. I get that like dopamine hit in my gut of just the satisfaction when I look at that. You know how people I don't know if we should do that since it's people will color these in white. Yeah. But since it's I like the that you know just by itself. MFH doesn't do that. Uhuh. They don't. If BFG doesn't do it, MFH doesn't do it. We should go through the mud in these. How the look on your face is priceless. I forgot you hate dirt and mud. We should go put it on a circle track. There's a circle track over by Emily's house. I do like that. My gosh, dude. We can take the other side of these tires and make them yellow with bigger letters and plastic the wheels black. Or hear me out. What if we called a pooer and was like, "Hey, send us some dirt tires." Only thing is I don't know if they make them anything but a 15 or 16. You going to clean this thing? Yeah. When it's done. Yeah. It won't get that dirty. It's not mud. It's like we'll go on a Sunday after like a Saturday night race. It's nice and packed down. Sweet. Just spray everything with baby old man. Go hit the mud. Hit the mud. Little baby old slip. I'm listening, but I don't know if I'm convinced. Look, man. Dang old mud. Come on. Come up on the dirt, man. Go turns black. Just about to grip his foot off, man. Sometime gumbo. You know what I mean? Gumbo. Don't turn. Turn right. Go left. Turn right. Go left. Big old booty out swinging up, man. It'd be cool, man. I don't know. Dang old trap. I do want to do dirt drags with this thing. That look trashy. Oh well, it's a tire. It'll be all right. Story time. I used to spray paint my mini hockey sticks um adjacent to my dad's car. It was actually farther away from the quarter panel than that was, but just the way the wind blew and the frequency and quantity which I painted it made his car all like you could feel it. Overspray. Yeah, the overspray. And he he freaking yelled at me because he's like, "Where'd you take my car? Go get clay bar by somebody because you got all that paint on there. You're not allowed to paint here anymore." See, you knew what a clay bar was a long time ago. I did. Yeah. Did I still paint next to his car? Yep. Yeah. Just not when he was around. Yep. I just do two coats on it. Three coats might be too thick. I think the thick is good. You think? Yeah. I'm hoping it might not. It might crack off. What is this anyway? I'm more than Yeah, you don't want it to be super dry and cured. big old fatty. All I've ever wanted in life was a set of big old fatties. The world's first MF Hoodrich big old fatty is about to get mocked up. Oh, it's so good rolling, dude. I brought it to the wrong side. That's so real looking. I can't even deal with this. It's It fall. Yeah. I don't want to. It's still slightly tacky. Oh, so it's lined up with the the letters. Okay, I'll get it now. I think you're OCD. Is that straight? A little bit. Yeah. Right there. Hey, man. You ever done this before? No. How do you do this? You just do it. Are you sure these the right leg pattern? No, we just took them off though. Hey, Cole, how strong you feeling today? I'm feeling pretty good. My back's a little sore. We're going to go get a torque wrench tomorrow. I might have one. I'm going to put these on with my little 3/8 Milwaukee one. Thug duga. I think we'll be right there. Might go get that 100 lb torque wrench out. Got like a full-on assembly line thing going on here. Two coat seems to be the magic number so it doesn't peel up. Two light coats. Two light coats getting the problem on here. It's kind of Yeah, this one's a little This one's a little messed up here, but I don't know why it's not really sticking to that. Stuck good to the other one. What' you do, Cole? It's Cole's fault. Actually, no. Let's blame Cooper. Everything went fine till I put this shirt on. We're just having a terrible day. Blame Cooper, actually. So yeah, definitely Blaine Cooper cuz if it wasn't for Cooper, I wouldn't have met Street Car takeover guys and I wouldn't be here. So yeah, this is all Cooper's fault. Screw Cooper. Screw you, Cooper. I don't even know. Screw you, Cooper. Just do it. Where have I heard that before? Do it. Get up, Cole. Show the people. Just do it. Do what? Did you just do like the fairy tale heel click thing? I think so. It felt cool in my head. Make your dreams come true. When did we get ice cream? What? When did we get ice cream? You picked it up in B day white and you scratched it. You scratched my CD. You scratched my CD, you know. I need to watch that movie again. All right. So, I had a couple letters that didn't stick on one. And my theory is exactly what I told Stapleton not to do, which was I put it on too wet on the first coat. And there was probably just some residual junk on there. So now I'm going with a very, very light coat. And I just wiped it off with a little brake clean. If I had a new lacquer thinner, that probably work better, but I don't. Here we go. I don't know how long this stuff's going to last, but I'm very pleased with the results. So, I'm going to let this dry for um 5 minutes. So, this is really just kind of a trial run to see what works, what sticks, what doesn't. If you ain't beaming, you ain't reaming. Shout out to White Diamond for sending us this multi-purpose dressing. I'm going to take this and do the tires first. See how I like it there. I know it's going to be good. And after I get done there, I'm going to do the wheel wells cuz I'm getting ready to light paint this thing and I want it to be shined like a white diamond. This white diamond is supposed to be for all kinds of plastic. So, I'm going to give it a shot on this back step right here. I like it. I like it a lot. Wow. Look at that. Like a brand new pad. Shout out to White Diamond coming in clutch. Be super sweet if we had some microfiber rags because this is not ideal. You can't tell it on camera, but the color is wild. I'm telling you, if you've never seen this truck in person, you need to come see it. not here, but in an event. Because I promise you, the color you think it is is not the color it is. I've been a professional photographer for like five or 6 years now, and I struggle every single time I go to edit this truck because the color is so wacky. My camera just doesn't pick it up. I don't understand what color science is uh arry with this color, but you need to see it in person. If you're going to be in Austin this weekend, we'll be there until Sunday or Monday. I believe Monday. It's the 1st through the 3rd. [Music] I want to put some bull horns on this thing. It' be real easy to just slip them on, you know. Have a bullhorn right here. It changes the sound a lot. Wishawad. Dingdong. Uh, wingbat. I'm going to set this on the gun down on the ground. Hopefully my lights are all charged up and I'm going to light paint it cuz now it's all slippy dippy shiny. Mine. [Music] Whatever time it is. It's 4:00 in the morning. Almost 5. Still haven't been able to break my freak freaking all night sleep schedule. I get to shop all to myself to shoot things. Wow, dude. I'm not going to lie. I'm pretty excited to shoot this. Had seen it look this good in a long time. Man, those are some big old fatties. Golly, look at that stance, dude. Just seeing it on the ground. I'm pumped up. O, I'm pumped up. Might be kind of hard to tell from the video, but when you see this thing rolling down the road from behind, Man, I got goosebumps, dude. I'm so excited to shoot this right now. All right, stay tuned. I'm going to go get my lights.
