Engine Shop Equipment and Teardown Room

had bays like you know here here here all the way down like so we could have six cars. Interesting. Which nowadays they have 20 but that was a lot of cars back then. Yeah yeah yeah that was I think the most I ever had at any one time was probably six cars but it's all about budget I mean the biggest budget I ever had was a million and a half dollars. These guys can't get to Daytona for that. That's what I was telling him back to RCA deal with Cables on the two million dollars. Yeah yeah. That was large for us. Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah I get it I mean but I mean the difference is I mean we we could build the engines our own engines I could build an an engine for 15,000 dollars and now you got to rent one for 90,000. Is this all the same as it was in 86 pretty much other than that wall over there? Yeah yeah pretty much. This used to be the bondo room where you made all the templates fit and cuz you know we built [music] all the steel bodies it wasn't the prefab bodies. That was a paint booth. That's why I like coming into places like this because I didn't get to live through that era and these buildings are the closest thing that I can access to a time machine. That's a paint booth. This is the same paint booth that we had over at Cables. Yeah. Same time. This paint booth here actually Kyle Kyle's team put this one in here. This AFC. Can we turn the light on? Yeah. Well the other difference is you had your emotions. Yeah you had individuality back then you know
