How long, how far can they?
Jason
Possibly go I'm thinking if they wanted to go someplace expensive, the gas station.
Jason
Seems pretty good place these.
John
Days, yes, the gas station.
Jason
And honey, I'll leave him pump it.
Jason
For you, wow.
Jason
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to another great episode of the Get Out and Drive Podcast.
Jason
My name is Jason.
Jason
Old car guy car.
John
I am John custom car nerd, Meyer.
Jason
John, have you ever sat?
Jason
And looked at people screen names on social media and.
Jason
Thought what is the?
Jason
Story behind that screen name?
Jason
Who is this person?
John
Yeah, I've I've done that quite a lot.
John
I look and there's some crazy crazy people that I follow and I'm like, well, how did the guy get that name?
John
You know Paul, that works with us, he is, he is BCUDA69. For anybody wants to follow him on Instagram and that's because he has an a body. CUDA just kind of rings together and it and it.
John
Make sure that people know that.
John
That's who is behind that.
John
That's how they got their persona.
Jason
And as we introduced ourselves, you introduced.
Jason
I introduced you or you introduce yourself as John custom car nerd.
Jason
So you've got that.
Jason
You know you've been into custom cars.
Jason
You're a nerd.
Jason
I guess that's where the story comes from with that.
John
That that is definitely because as much as other people can be considered a nerd from comic books and and anime and all that type of stuff I have that ridiculous retention of useless information.
John
For everything with wheels, and that's where the nerd part comes in, so.
Jason
Well, one of the.
Jason
Things that our guests today has is a unique screen name that he uses on social media as well as on his YouTube channel.
Jason
And he's also my partner in crime over on the car guy and six fans show and that is.
Jason
My friend Grant Tommy, who is straight 6 Fan grant welcome to the podcast.
Grant
Hey well thank you both for having me on the show today.
Grant
It's a real pleasure to be here and appreciate the platform to talk about a little bit about myself in the channel.
John
Well, we're glad to have you here.
Jason
So seems how we are talking a little bit about you today.
Jason
As I mentioned St 6 fan we want you to tell the.
Jason
Story behind that name.
Grant
Yeah, absolutely. So I I guess where it all starts is I think most of us when we get into this hobby of ours, the automotive stuff of any sorts. You know whether it's through YouTube, whether it's through just being on online.
Grant
Forums and reading magazines and all that things. So I'm 36 so I would have been still part of that magazine era when it came time for my first vehicle.
Grant
My parents decided they would buy off of my dad's construction company, a 1995 Ford F-150. As the construction company was basically saying, hey, this has too many miles on it now we need to get you a new company truck.
Grant
We're going to phase this out.
Grant
My dad thought, hey well, my middle son needs a needs something to drive to high school, so we'll buy that off.
Grant
And so it was a 1995 Ford F-150 and is an inline 6 now. Of course I'm also I always say I'm a byproduct of the early 90s like.
Grant
So home improvement, tool time and also family matters, shows the Carl Winslow Dragsholm, an old Dodge Polara police car for him and Eddie Winslow to fix up.
Grant
And then Tim Allen build the 32 Ford Roadster so you know, I have these grandiose ideas of what.
Grant
That's going to be for me. Well, wound up being a 1995 Ford F-150 with that 300 inline 6.
Grant
And so.
Grant
I had two choices.
Grant
It was one just.
Grant
Kind of complain about.
Grant
What I got that I didn't have to spend a.
Grant
Dime on.
Grant
And and be a be a bad son or just kind of own it and and think along the lines of.
Grant
Build what you got.
Grant
And that's where straight 6.
Grant
Van kind of comes from.
Grant
So there's really literally the first time I used that.
Grant
It was a high school.
Grant
It was an email account I generated at high school.
John
That's pretty cool, and I know there's several different people that I follow that that kind of have that same.
John
Persona and people that you see that they're interested in C 10s and they have C10 in their name or people that are interested in novas.
John
Have you know the Nova guy as their as their screen name on several different social media platforms and it's?
John
It's weird how things evolve.
John
That way, and you've kept that and you have a good story.
John
Behind it, so that's cool.
Grant
Yeah, and it really got to a point.
Grant
I mean, I think we can all relate whether you're kargi or not.
Grant
At some point you know every website wants you to have a screen name and at some point I just got tired of coming up with a new one.
Grant
Over and over, so it's like.
What's what's?
Grant
So wrong with Straits.
Grant
It's been, and I think when new people come to my YouTube channel, they always think so obviously he's only going to build inline.
Grant
Six is, well, that's not exactly what I want it to be about.
Grant
Yeah, it's it's paying homage to my my first vehicle in the story I just told me now, like build what she got kind of thing.
Grant
It's meant more for what I've coined.
Grant
Off the hot routing and that just means like we all don't have to wait around till the the pristine 60.
Grant
9 Camaro falls in our lap at that ridiculous price point.
Grant
It just means, like I think there's other opportunities to build something cool.
Grant
Just get into the hobby.
Grant
Find something that is accessible to you in what makes sense for you and that.
Grant
That's kind of what straight.
Grant
Sticks band embodies.
Jason
And as we.
Jason
Kind of move forward into talking about certain projects and this and that you had mentioned the odd bodies.
Jason
Those who may or may not know I have a 79 Chrysler Cordoba, so it's kind of the last of the B body.
Jason
Chryslers John had his share.
Jason
He's had The Mavericks.
Jason
He's recently bought a really cool K car, but.
Jason
At the end of the day.
Jason
We talk about our project, cars, and offbeat hot rodding so offbeat hot rodding and we talk about this on our show together.
Jason
Grant is that.
Jason
It's just the odd.
Jason
Off beat weird something that you just don't see driving down the road every day your your most recent project was a Ford Fairmont.
Jason
It's a fox body, but it wasn't a Mustang and you've recently made an acquire of a another great odbody I, I guess, let me just let you let you share what it is and.
Jason
And and how you kind of.
Grant
Come into that, yeah, so peek behind the curtains, I guess depending on when this episode goes live compared to my next YouTube upload I I'm pretty sure I'm gonna title it.
Grant
Did I just buy the ugliest G body yet?
Grant
Because I do believe it is the ugliest year.
Grant
OK, but I like.
John
I would agree.
Grant
It so so 1979 Pontiac Grand Prix and Jason you and I we have these sayings kind of like it's so wrong.
Grant
It's right, maybe a better name for a channel would be Detroit's derelicts you know is so I'm subscribing to car craft magazine circa 2000 2001.
Grant
You know, David Freiberger's the editor back then and and I think I kind of latched onto the well.
Grant
I'm not going to be able to come up with $8000 as a high school kid to find a Barracuda Mustang or whatever.
Grant
At the same time I'm going to car shows all the time and at some point you get.
Let's see.
Grant
You get numb to seeing the same thing.
Grant
The same Nova Scotia bells.
Grant
Camaros Mustangs all the sorts and not to say they're bad looking cars. They're not. They absolutely aren't, but I figure if somebody can stop by a 1979 Pontiac Grand Prix, what the hell is this at a car show and be interested in it?
Grant
That makes you a much more talented builder than the person who just rolled out the 69 Camaro.
John
Well, I can.
John
I can say that definitely is true from a person that owned a pink cow.
John
Look VW bug as his first car, which is fantastic for myself.
John
I was all about the nerd cars.
John
I still am a lot of people hassle me because of the Mustang.
John
Two, I'm just uh Mustang 2 fanatic, you know Cobra Mustang you know 70 four 7576 cobra Mustang that will be my next project. I have to have one I'm into that you know I'm the person that coined the phrase disco muscle car. Some people love it, some people hate it. It's something to tell you about.
John
Smog Era Detroit just molaise anemic terrible cars from the 70s and it's a disco muscle car. It looks like a 75 GTO but why? Why does it have 112 horsepower?
John
That's the kind of stuff that I like.
John
That's the stuff I'm behind.
John
And just like what you said, Grant that.
John
It's the weird.
John
It's the oddball.
John
It's the Camaro, Camaro, Camaro, Chevelle, Camaro, Mustang, or what the hell is that Maverick?
John
It's that kind of mentality that is has pushed my love for cars.
Grant
John Biscoe muscle car. I'd be curious to get your take on this. 'cause when I say odbody I'm it's always OPEC era and and for me I feel like I set the limits at 1973 is the start. Of course. I mean, I don't think there's any debating that but.
Grant
The in parts weird for me. I typically go 81 because that's the second Gen Camaro runs up to 19.
Grant
81 before they restyled to the third third Gen, but the other part of me thinks, you know, really Detroit didn't start correct writing its wrongs until about like 1986 ish, when fuel injection became more mainstream.
Grant
And like you know, the Grand National really was hitting its stride right about 8586. Where would for disco muscle cars for you? Or do you feel like you you cut off that that end of it?
John
I would consider anything.
John
Like disco muscle car from probably 1973 with Five mile an hour, bumper, cars and rubber bumper cars.
John
To about maybe 80, regardless of style and body style carryovers for years until 82, you know and things like that.
John
With the changeover of there's no 83 Corvette and and that type of stuff and things changed a lot. You know the end of the world in in 1988 when they had.
John
A front wheel drive Grand National looking.
John
Buick LeSabre I hate saying all those words together in the same sentence, but you know what I'm talking about is you look at an 87 GNX and then you look at a oh an 88 Buick LeSabre that's got Grand National emblems and things on it and it's all black and you just hear the music from.
John
Boom boom boom boom where.
Speaker 1
Oh oh.
Grant
You prices right failed.
John
Yeah yeah yeah the price is right fail Horn and you hear that and you hear somebody say.
John
Well, well, I got a Grand National really you have an 88 Grand National? Did you lose a bet? What happened?
Grant
Absolutely yeah no.
Grant
I'm waiting right there with you.
Grant
It walks whatever that phrase is.
John
I remember that era.
John
I remember my dad buying cars in that era.
John
I get shot in the face from social media all the time.
John
I'm interested in granadas.
John
My dad had a cream colored green.
John
Had a 2 door and he went from the Ford dealer to the Sears and put slots and white letter tires on it like 5 minutes after he bought it.
John
You know I remember all that stuff from the 70s.
John
I remember that terribleness.
Grant
My other thing about that whole Arab part so so by trade I'm an architect so I'm insider, so I'm I'm constantly like I want things to look good and and all that as an architect there are certain things like through construction, something will end up about a building that's just goofy and funky, and for the past your body.
Grant
Like why the hell is?
Grant
This bulkhead here.
Grant
Like this just looks out of place.
Grant
And then you come to find out.
Grant
It was kind of out of my control.
Grant
There was something that came up construction.
Grant
Like really we have to settle for this bulkhead running like.
Grant
All right, fine. So I I have inside of me kind of a I don't know soft spot in my heart for these these engineers or these car designers of 1973 through 19.
Grant
81 Who literally, you know you just got done with this like awesome era of automotive design work 64 to 72 and then the government.
Grant
Imposing these rules.
Grant
And they just don't know how to.
Grant
React and so some of it.
Grant
I feel like it's like OK, we strip away these rules.
Grant
These sucking rules that we we've gotten further and we we figured out.
Grant
Like, OK, we really didn't need just lower compression ratios.
Grant
We didn't need to just put grotesque bumpers in front of these cars.
Grant
Like what could these this Arab car look like?
Grant
If you strip that away and I think.
Grant
That's the other part of it.
Grant
Why it flew over dumb reason I'm drunk.
Grant
Their car I think.
Grant
I think that's part of it is just me as a designer.
Jason
Well and.
Grant
And grant you.
Jason
And I have talked on several occasions whether it be through a text or.
Jason
Through a phone.
Jason
Call or on our own show about how.
Jason
Much you and.
Jason
I think, uh, like you mentioned, you're 36.
Jason
I'm 10 years older than.
Jason
You are, so there's a there's.
Jason
Almost a full generation there between likes and dislikes.
Jason
Whether it be.
Jason
Music, cars, whatever it happens to be, but yet?
Jason
We're on that same wave.
Jason
Length, and when John had asked me to come over and be a part of the get out and Drive podcast very quickly and learning just how much John is like minded of us and how he, you know, we just kind of fit in that same mold of guys who just we like the weird looking stuff and we absolutely.
Jason
100% appreciate common Camaro Mustang chevelle's. Whatever it happens to be, we all love that stuff but we have a soft spot in our heart.
Jason
For that thing, that's just not quite right.
Jason
We want to break this down a little bit.
Jason
Further to say, OK.
Jason
You bought yourself a Grand Prix, a 79 Grand Prix. It's a G body. Well, G bodies are becoming very, very popular in 7879 into the 80s.
Jason
Some of them are starting to throw some beates in there.
Jason
They're getting some fine lines, but no, this Grand Prix is just.
Jason
Rose, it's got hubcaps.
Jason
It's got a split grill rate down to the bumper and above all else, it's bandied beige like.
Jason
Come on like can you not get any?
Jason
Cooler then Band-Aid beige in 79.
Jason
With the wood grain.
Jason
Dash and the hubcaps and the missing filler panels.
Jason
And like Oh my God, that car is such a nice looking car.
Grant
So our friend.
Grant
Over at Pulse speech.
Grant
Shop on YouTube.
Grant
But cracked pizza from the table saying here on Instagram he said prosthetic limb baish was and I'm like you know what?
Grant
I think that might be the name.
Grant
For the project is project.
Grant
Right?
Grant
But then we'll see, we'll see.
Speaker 1
I'm trying.
John
Trying to hold my composure.
John
You said prosthetic limb beige.
Grant
Yeah, so I can't take credit for that one.
John
Dude, that's an everlovin riot.
Grant
But it is.
Grant
Well hearing aid beige was the last winner over the Fairmont.
John
OK.
Grant
But, uh, yeah, so.
Grant
**** well, excuse me where was I going with that? But uh, I I guess I guess I go back to so Jason, you and I we had been her man's of her man's designs on I think I like Season 3 maybe or something but it.
Jason
Of our first guests.
Grant
Yeah, if you haven't checked out, just Google been hermannsson.
Grant
That's basically as it sounds HR.
Grant
KNCE spirit of 76.
Grant
He, I believe, is popular, hot Rodding magazine basically commissioned him to come up with just ideas for cars, and he calls them B level or sea level cars.
Grant
That's that's this OPEC era. In spirit of 76 obviously just means Bicentennial year. He picked only makes and models from 1976.
Grant
And he has it.
Grant
I mean, if you don't mind me saying really good looking stuff.
Grant
I mean from a AMC Hornet and I'm way into the pro touring.
Grant
Look in everything so it's all.
Grant
It's all.
Grant
It's all that.
Grant
So if you're into that, look it up and it just gives you a really good.
Grant
Example of like what these cars could have been.
Grant
Again, if you strip away all the crappy rules the government is thrown at them.
John
Yeah, that's that's definitely true. And and this kind of goes out of that area the tiniest bit, but it's still a fun story. My dad traded in a 79 Mustang for an 84 mercury Topaz.
John
I I know again the.
John
Fail boom boom boom ah.
John
And well, so we're sitting in the dealer and the car pulls up and it gets delivered and my dad takes the plates off his old car, puts him on the new car we get in and shut the door.
John
And and it's a 2 door.
John
And what happens?
John
The seat belt scoped?
John
And and it makes this rattling and shaking and banging it sound like you threw a wheelchair down the stairs and this car is a window sticker in it and 3/10 of a mile on it. And I said, Dad, is it supposed to do that? He goes. I guess it's new technology.
John
And it never changed.
John
It was the most terrible thing ever until he.
John
Got rid of the car.
John
And I remember to this day exactly exactly what that sounded like.
John
It's like a fork and a blender.
John
I don't know if you've experienced that sitting in a tempo or Topaz or any vehicle from that age.
John
It's the worst thing ever and I'm glad that I got to witness that first hand because somebody say, Oh yeah, that's all worn out and everything.
John
No dude, this was absolutely brand flipping new.
John
Do and the thing sounded terrible.
Grant
John, I go back to the parallel as an architect and as a designer.
Grant
The funny thing, so I'm usually an interior designer picking out paint colors on the projects I'm on.
Grant
But you look at something.
Grant
Read some of these paint colors and I'm like yeah, what?
Grant
What did you have to smoke to come up with these paint names?
Grant
And I, I think when you say Topaz, it's almost like.
Grant
OK, how did you think you were going to sell a bunch of cars?
Grant
Name and some Topaz you know like?
Grant
It's just destined for.
Grant
Or death upon arrival, right?
Jason
Sounds like a foot fungus.
John
Yes, I'm sorry.
John
Did you see him?
John
He's a nice guy he had but he's got topaz.
John
Jason, you like cruising around the Internet, just searching for projects that you don't need.
John
You do that.
John
I do.
Jason
It's probably my second job.
John
It is your second job.
John
I know I get smacked all the time 'cause I've got.
John
Plenty of projects and.
John
I I secretly still look for things other than the things that are in my driveway.
John
What's wrong with?
Jason
Us, I don't know. It's definitely a sickness, but you know, one of my favorite places to visit is racingjunk.com.
John
I go there a lot.
John
I probably shouldn't, but I go there a lot.
John
It's it's like a little little secret.
John
Hideout I get really good deals there.
John
Yeah, I'm sorry I'm saying this on the podcast.
John
I'm going to let out the secret.
John
But I'm I'm getting much.
John
Better deals there than I am on.
John
A lot of other websites.
Jason
Yeah, and not only can you buy and get good deals, but you can also sell your own junk and put money right in your pocket.
Yeah, that's right.
John
They don't charge any transaction fees. This is 100% of what I make through my ad I keep.
Jason
Absolutely. So if your wife.
Jason
Is at you to clean out your garage for spring.
Jason
You can post all your junk on racing junk com.
John
Wow, I'm going to.
John
I'm going to stop talking now.
John
I'm going to head out to the garage and I would be back in a little bit.
John
But I'm gonna head out and clean up some stuff.
John
I know I've got a.
Stuff to sell.
Jason
Start making money today.
John
Get out and racingjunk.com. Sell your stuff, get money, stick it in your pocket.
Jason
Great, let's go back for a second and talk.
Jason
A little bit about.
Jason
Our past you mentioned Ben Hermance and I think it was on a post that you saw of his where you recognized a Chrysler Cordoba at so.
Jason
Point and out of the blue messaged me on Instagram.
Jason
Tell us that story and and how Grant and Jason kind of got to know each other.
Grant
It's pretty blurry. The past right? Like how do you? I'm not sure the accounts the account is 100% accurate, but I believe so you know they it all spawned out of when You Tube made their new announcement about the threshold for monetization. At the time I was currently monetized. You know the old threshold was like have 100.
Grant
Subscribers, and I think that was it really.
Grant
So I was starting to see what it's like to bring in money from the YouTube site again.
Grant
Not that much, but they announce you need 1000 subscribers and 4000 hours of watch time and So what happened is we all flipped out and we all like. OK, well I don't know how to solve the the watch time thing yet, but I know how I can probably pick up the subscribers so we all were in these these chat rooms trying to pick up subscribers.
Grant
And and personally, I would you know you would go to most of them.
Grant
Like would be like your.
Grant
*** your creator fundamentals kind of your Tim Schmoyer's of the world would be where I would find myself mostly like looking for tips and tricks.
Grant
But in the chat, you know I'd be looking at channel names and be checking them out, and I want to subscribe to any of them.
Grant
Will say for car related, so I'm like well this person I guess described me.
Grant
'cause they're not going to be interested in what I'm doing.
Grant
If they're about braiding bracelets or whatever, you know that Channel might be about, so I think that's how I stumbled upon.
Grant
Cold car guy.
Grant
Jason was you and I were in the same chat at one point in time and.
Grant
And then yeah, it was.
Grant
Instagram didn't direct messages from there and it was.
Grant
Yes, been it was either Ben Hur man, says Cordova.
Grant
76 Cordova rendering or a cab over truck that I think kicked off. Kicked off the relationship from there.
Jason
Yeah, and what basically what that did?
Jason
Was that stumbled into us figuring out.
Jason
Just how much?
Jason
We had in common, and I think earlier on tonight.
Jason
Right and we should have been recording and I wish Paul would kind of get his act in gear.
Jason
With that when.
Jason
When when Joanne?
Jason
Our production manager talked about a dating site per say for car guys who you didn't show a picture of yourself.
Jason
You showed a picture of your car and if you liked.
Jason
Said person car.
Jason
Well you could add that person as a friend, but you know if that person had this car and they had stick on hood louvers.
Jason
On the top.
Tim
Well, you could just.
Jason
Swipe left and you know.
Jason
And and get that guy out.
Jason
Of the way real quick.
Jason
And I think that it that's kind of what you know, the relationship that grant and I have developed over the last four years is just that is, it's a couple of car guys having very similar interests, who you know basically come to the point of saying, OK, you know, let's help each other grow.
Jason
Not just in our friendship, but also on our YouTube journey to reach that monetization goal that You Tube had previously screwed out.
Jason
A lot of people of so, Grant says you.
Jason
Know I think we should do a show.
Jason
A live stream of some sort.
Jason
You know at the time you I think you needed 100 subscribers on YouTube to be able to go live, was it?
Jason
Grant, if I do recall.
Grant
Yeah, he may have been. Yeah, I think it was 1000 to go live mobile and it may have only been a under.
Jason
Oh yes, yeah.
Jason
So you uh hundred to go live online or whatever it was.
Jason
Anyways, we decided that you know, let's put a show together a live stream where people can come join our live stream in the chat like we used to.
Jason
Nobody else and try and get ourselves back to that monetization.
Jason
So it basically just kind of sprawled out into what we have now.
Jason
Coined the car guy and six fan show on YouTube, which takes place every Thursday evening. Most Thursday evenings. We do take breaks here and there, but for the most part every Thursday.
Jason
Evening, 7:00 o'clock central time we alternate channels between old car guy which is my channel.
Jason
And St 6 FAM, which is grants and we have had a ton of success doing pretty much what we're doing here, introducing guests.
Jason
And we've.
Jason
Had John on.
Jason
As they get out and drive pod.
Jason
Both on our show and now.
Jason
It's kind of like the roles have somewhat been reversed because essentially we're kind of both.
Jason
On another, you know, streaming situation where we're asking each other questions and talking about stuff, mostly car related.
Jason
Let's talk a little bit.
Jason
I want you to talk on your from your point of view of what you've experienced and.
Jason
How the car guy and six fan show has kind?
Jason
Of helped with what you're doing.
Jason
As far as YouTube goes.
Grant
Make the most rewarding thing.
Grant
Looking back I mean So what?
Grant
We're in season 7.
Grant
So maybe eight would be the next one.
Grant
I mean we only got 2 episodes left as we record this tonight is is like the regulars that are there, you know, like.
Grant
King, Eric. The greatest of all as he goes by all in YouTube, he's got snarked like none other, but I've never met the guy, but I feel like.
Grant
Would just probably probably pee my pants laughing if I met him in person.
Grant
You know?
Grant
I mean, he's just just a good and it's just like man I.
Grant
I don't have that level.
Grant
Weekly or something.
Grant
So aside from host and Co.
Grant
Host duties right for this show itself, but the other part was so I the CARR-GUY & 6fan shows born out of a little bit.
Grant
Uh, the coworker of mine who got me into you.
Grant
To first and foremost, he took over.
Grant
He kind of like took the baton from some other channel who had started doing livestreams and started just interviewing other YouTube channels in the niche just to get exposure to other people.
Grant
That's what this is all about, right?
Grant
It's just networking at the end of the day, we're.
Grant
All we're doing every.
Grant
No matter what waffle life, here it is, it's it's network.
Grant
And so he he this other mean. And I can't remember the name of that first channel. But Greg's garage, my coworker.
Grant
He he did the next iteration, and then when he was kind of done with it, and I enjoyed watching those and finding in channels, I asked, hey can I can I take this over?
Grant
Can I do this?
Grant
Know your neighbors is what it was called.
Grant
Series and so I started doing that for a while and once a month interviewing other YouTube channels and Jason you were one of my guests.
Grant
And then it's funny 'cause you you message me and you're like I think you need to up the know your neighbors bit grant.
Grant
And I was like, well Jason, I don't know tell you about thinking about.
Grant
Actually canceling that and I said.
Grant
And here's why, because I think we need to turn it into a weekly show like oh, and I was looking for a co-host that I could rely on and could depend on, I mean.
Grant
There were maybe two or three other channels I had thought about, but I was like me and I just don't know about backwards and I just don't think they'd be consistent.
Grant
And I I knew I could tell by our correspondence that your energy to get better at YouTube constantly.
Grant
It's like, yeah, this guy is not going to missile.
Grant
So that's when I reached out to you is like, what would you think?
Grant
About if we did know your neighbors, but as a two man show, and that's I think where currencies being started.
Jason
And just I, I've got to take this opportunity to dig a little bit to say that in the seven seasons of the car guy and six fan show this guy right here has perfect attendance and and Grant has flaked off on me.
Jason
I think 5 Times Now.
Jason
As the host or the Co host of that show, and I've had to.
Jason
Find substitutes so.
Jason
You know, John, I think that we're in.
Jason
You're in good hands, good, reliable here I am.
Jason
Call me up.
Jason
'cause I'll be.
Jason
There and we'll get this show on.
John
The road wow, I didn't know you were double jointed.
John
That is so easy to pat yourself on the back.
John
That's amazing.
John
Good job.
Jason
You're not Tooting your own horn if it's true.
John
That's true, you are exactly correct.
John
I am the best right?
Grant
I'll blame it on work.
Grant
All time.
John
I'm the best guy you've ever met.
John
Just ask me.
John
So Grant, I know we talked a little bit about.
John
I guess the nerd cars, the OPEC cars, the emissions bogged down, malaise, era stuff.
John
Every derogatory adjective I could possibly throw at these.
John
Vehicles other than the oddity of them does.
John
Is there anything that draws you to?
Grant
Them, I mean the Fairmont.
Grant
So it's my first project car on the channel.
Grant
I kind of have this.
Grant
I have this matrix when I'm looking for a project car.
Grant
There's 10 questions I ask myself and I can get 8 out of 10.
Grant
It's like, well, why aren't you buying this thing?
Grant
You know it was a very common platform Fox body platform so.
Grant
I knew I could buy.
Grant
Used Mustang parts hand over fist.
Grant
And so I think that's part of the appeal for that specific car, but.
Grant
Then it's also.
Grant
We were watching an episode engine masters and you know you see their fryberger dulcich was saying it. I think it was one of those motorhome 440 episodes where they're like just attack the things that you know are just completely just wrong about that.
Grant
Motor so in that area it's either the camshaft.
Grant
Well, it's usually both the camshaft and it's heads.
Grant
You have low compression and you have these like just really lame camshaft grinds right?
Grant
So that's what project load Fairmont was for me.
Grant
It's like if I just changed one thing. What happens? And so I I kind of studied GT40P heads.
Grant
Slapped a mung bean.
Grant
Otherwise, low compression motor and it really will cap thing up and.
Grant
And I want.
Grant
For people out there who are just kind of nervous about getting into the into the hobby to see head swaps is a little beyond bolt on just a hair, I think because it still is at the end they have bolt on right?
Grant
Like here unbolted something revolting.
Grant
Something down but don't feel like you need the room for an engine swap.
Grant
And just really be smart about it. Just go attack the one thing that makes why did a 1978 Ford Fairmont only have 140 horsepower in a 302 compared to 1969? 302, which probably had.
Grant
305 horsepower is, by and large the compression ratio, so anyway, that that's, I think that's the appeal is like, look again, take the rules.
Grant
Out of their their playbook and.
Grant
What if what if you just had a?
Grant
9 to one compression ratio.
Grant
Through to the 1970 or 70.
John
I only think about 70s.
John
Disco ERA cars as the only way to make them comply with the US NHTSA standards. You know, it's crazy.
John
Throw another vacuum hose at it, you know, throw another air compressor belt you know at it.
John
You know this doesn't run right.
John
We're going to make the thing.
John
Run on 8 cylinders sometimes.
John
Then we're going to make it run on 4 cylinders.
John
Then we're going to make it run on 6 cylinders.
John
And and all that type of thinking, I guess, is just throwing ideas at a wall and seeing if it sticks, because you know that in 1978 seventy 9A full size Ford with a frame you open up the hood and you can't see the engine.
John
Because there's so many emissions.
John
Valves and hoses and boxes and justice absolute craziness.
John
And then you get into the G.
John
Body feedback carburetors the almost not computer feedback carburetors that change themselves with the little screw motors.
John
I I had 80s era G body cars and I remember that quite well.
John
I don't know if you've gotten into that.
John
The electric feedback carburetors that you adjust and then it readjusts itself to be crappy.
Grant
Well, I'm looking at the the Grand Prix.
Grant
There's definitely a lot of.
Grant
Things to be learned.
Grant
But rest assured Internet I still have a 2 barrel Kara V8 with two barrels.
Grant
So you guys can, I can keep that consistent. I can still have the most hated 2 barrel V8 on the Internet, so that's good. I removed the smog pump on the Fairmont and.
Grant
A number of vacuum ones I don't want to say.
Grant
I probably reduced the backing ones by.
Grant
50% but
Grant
It's still look cluttered.
Grant
When I'm stuck like it's still, it's just like, yeah, I think Uncle Tony's garage has to say like yeah just you know late 70s the the harvest is plentiful up in the vacuum hose orchard and so they just put vacuum hoses everywhere.
John
And I don't understand why Jason do you.
John
Do you have any as a mechanic?
John
'cause I'm I'm the body man.
John
Side as a mechanic, do you know why any engineer would just jam vacuum hoses all over everything?
Jason
Oh, I do for sure and.
Jason
I think it's just simply to mess with the mechanics.
Jason
You know, in the later years.
Jason
So let's make these lines out of rubber.
Jason
Put them in an area where it gets hot and cold very frequently, and in five to seven years time they start cracking and and breaking, and it's.
Jason
Gonna be every mechanic's worst nightmare to find out which one of the 37.35 hoses that's in there. Cracks, bakes, you know, dies, whatever it is.
Jason
But for those of you who are listening to this podcast right now, and you're inclined to want to declutter underneath your hood, you know get rid of that smog pump or get rid of that lean burn system or whatever.
Jason
It happens to be you could go over to racingjunk.com and place your ad to get rid of that stuff, because chances are.
Jason
There's somebody out there looking for something to bring it right back to original.
Jason
Or maybe you're looking to buy replacement heads, a carburetor and intake.
Jason
Over to racing junk.
Jason
Com and find out anything you ever want.
Jason
For your project car.
Grant
I failed to.
Grant
I failed to mention like I think this may may have been the 1st.
Grant
Time in automotive history that three guys in one virtual chatroom wanted to build a Mustang 2 at some point in their life.
John
Yes, I keep.
Grant
I, I mean, almost daily.
Grant
I go like back and forth on.
Grant
Did I just make a really crappy financial decision to me and these gene bodies are?
Grant
They're hauling a lot of money in right now, and I I found a like an auction site that you know days.
Grant
Auction off classics right and there is one my exact same color, same year having it. Had a 350 Chevy in it but it really wasn't that far off of what my car is and showed 18,000 and like.
Grant
OK, OK.
Grant
Keep at it.
John
Right, the G bodies are starting to really come up in price.
John
It's amazing.
Jason
Well, one thing you gotta keep in mind too is the only person the only person that you've got to sell the financial decision to.
Jason
Is your better half?
Jason
Right like no.
Jason
Nobody else matters.
Jason
If you can convince her that you bought this car for X number of dollars, but look.
Jason
This one just.
John
Sold for 18 grand.
Jason
You know it's there's only one person you got.
Jason
To sell that project to.
Jason
So I think at.
Jason
The end of the day, I think you made a great.
Jason
Financial decision besides.
Jason
If if you're buying cars for the financial decisions you're in the business for the wrong reason.
Jason
Man, I can tell you that right.
Grant
By the time Ford was engineering, so the GT40P heads are Ford Explorer 5 liter head. So about 1998 and on a lot of people think it's forwards best cast iron head ever made, but it it scavenges exhaust so well on its own that they were able to delete the thermactor on the back. So honestly, even though I did this head swap.
Grant
And I deleted emissions equipment.
Grant
Like honestly, it's just.
Grant
It's just the byproduct of 20 plus years of research and development that I'm not really so sure that I made this up worse for the environment car when I did that headswap.
John
I went through.
John
And like I say, as a body man, I did my.
John
Best to go through the.
John
80s and 90s and when cars had to be inspected.
John
I know I'm from Missouri.
John
Cars had to be inspected on a rolling dyno and they had to pass emissions.
John
It was kind of crazy because you'd have these, you know, 70s and 80s cars that were supposed to be engineered much better.
John
In the end.
John
And they wouldn't pass the smog tests at all, and it was absolutely crazy and it was difficult to own those cars at that time.
Grant
And just so you know, John, both my Fairmont and my Grand Prix, now they're littered with stickers from state of Missouri on the windshields and everything.
John
That was a dark time for the state of Missouri when we had to have cars on a dyno.
John
It was a it was a crazy crazy time and then they went from having things.
John
Where you had to have it inspected on a dyno and then you would have cars that would pass a majority of the amount of time.
John
And you would go on an on ramp and they would sniff.
John
Test your car as you drove past it.
John
At 50 miles an hour in an on ramp, I don't know how that's supposed to work.
John
I don't know if you had that stuff in your state.
John
It's absolutely crazy.
Grant
No, the wind blows well enough here and keys is that we don't.
Grant
We don't do.
Grant
Sniff tests are usually left to the feedlots so.
Jason
The cornrows got 50 miles an hour but hey.
Jason
You know they're doing better.
Jason
They're growing faster now.
John
So Grant, I know we talk about what drives youth, what are you doing?
John
Are you working towards getting the younger generation involved with cars?
Grant
You know we were talking about this on the car guy, assist fish English just last week.
Grant
That just demographic wise it's it's.
Grant
It's funny how people plus five years minus five years my age or are drawn in my channel.
Grant
Right, so I think proactively I don't know that I really am.
Grant
I don't know subconsciously.
Grant
I guess you might.
Grant
The way that I that I am is this the cars I'm building.
Grant
The way I'm building them is is meant to be.
Grant
I want to help high school kids find the cars that will just take the Fairmont as example.
Grant
I had many commentators say you need to throw an intake manifold and full barrel.
Grant
Carl on that and I said, Nope, and do.
Grant
That 'cause that's that's low.
Grant
Hanging fruit for like a high school kid.
Grant
It's a high school kid going to be able to throw on GT40P heads and not screw something up.
Grant
I don't know that's it's going to be a learning curve.
Grant
My idea is always to build kind of a.
Grant
Starter kit of a car.
Grant
That if a parent the parent shouldn't be afraid to let their high school kid drive that to high school like it's going to have good brakes, it's.
Grant
Going to have.
Grant
You know it's going to be a fun car, but it's not going.
Grant
Get in too much trouble, I guess I'd say, and that's kind of always been my approach, so that while I had to just build what I got, the 1995 Ford F-150, four point, 9 liter and the Mazda transmission. OK, so So what happens if?
Grant
A high school kid buys.
Grant
The 1978 Ford Fairmont with track lock Rear end.
Grant
4 wheel disc brakes, 17 inch wheels beefed up sway bar, GT40P heads, full exhaust.
Grant
But it's still 2 barrel cart.
Grant
Right, like that's that's, I think where I, you know, kind of, not not proactively.
Grant
Am I doing it? But I I think in the back of my head I'm always trying to cater to 816 to 18 year old Korean.
Jason
So I guess one thing that we want to talk about a little bit too is the future of what grant Tommy wants to do on YouTube, because obviously, you know, we're here to talk about your channel.
Jason
We're going to talk about promote you.
Jason
So what are some of?
Jason
The things in the future obviously we've mentioned.
Jason
The Grand Prix.
Jason
What does the future life or straight 6 fan the YouTube channel?
Jason
What are your aspirations?
Jason
What are your goals to see that succeed to carry on the message of of what it is that you do on that Channel?
Grant
I think for anybody out there starting a YouTube channel here in 2022 is not to think about could I do YouTube full time but start to think about how could You Tube ultimately be a pre marketing link for something else down the road?
Grant
And so to answer your question Jason, it's kind of.
Grant
There's kind of two parts to it.
Grant
In the immediate future, I need to prove that off the autorouting works and yeah, I did it once for the Fairmont, but to do it a second time I think it's going to be probably just about out of.
Grant
My content and.
Grant
So the Grand Prix is going to take a little bit of a different.
Grant
Twist than what project Lo Fairmont did.
Grant
I think I'm going to lean into the whole pro touring thing a little heavier.
Grant
I think I'm going to really focus on suspension work.
Grant
I'd like to do brake work as well, but see what the budget has in store.
Grant
It might just do suspension wheel and tire and kind of stands and look and and all that.
Grant
But long term, I guess premarketing links so.
Grant
I live in a 990 square foot two bedroom townhome right now and it does have two car garage so I'm limited by space by what I could do so these these projects. My Grand Prix Ford Fairmont.
Grant
Kind of meant to be learning tools and flip opportunities.
Grant
If I don't profit off of.
Grant
I made all my money back on my fairlawn.
Grant
But if I don't profit off of anything, I I just considered my tuition for learning.
Grant
The premarketing wings.
Grant
So I want people that you know, like my stuff.
Grant
Obviously we all do fire, but but kind of get it.
Grant
Get a sense for sense of style and I think but my dream I guess is to build rat rods out of old grain trucks here in the state of Kansas and and build a business out of it because you think about a grain trucks.
Grant
Used twice a year and put.
Grant
In the garage for the rest of the year.
Grant
So you have 19 fifties 1960s era, you know, unless you accidentally ran into the green card or whatever they've got next to no body work and and no need to repaint them.
Grant
Or if they have surface rusted, you've got great patina and I just feel like there's in the state of Kansas.
Grant
It's market rich.
Grant
For those candidates, and I think there's a I think there's some business to be made out of, uh, some of these bigger ranchers to like.
Grant
They just have an old 50s wheat truck.
Grant
I try buy one every day to work.
Grant
Out in the pasture what're you gonna do with that and I feel like I don't know if you guys watched board of the car hoards or Arrested Development but it it their whole thing was about like cleaning up people hordes and building 1 car out of their car hoard like they would scrap or sell or do all the stuff with their giant car hoard and say you can build.
Grant
One, what would it be?
Grant
I feel like there's a lot of farmers in this state.
Grant
A lot of big ranchers that it's like you've got old, Rusty implements out in the pasture.
Grant
Let's scrap those.
Grant
Let's do this.
Grant
Let's pull the.
Grant
Diesel motor out of the Alice Chalmers combine and let's just build your rat rod out of this great track.
Grant
That's my my pie in the sky dream I guess.
Jason
And if you guys like what you've heard here on this podcast, with what Grant is doing over on his channel and and the way he thinks and and and and the way he wants to.
Jason
You know, kind of move forward in his projects.
Jason
Make sure you're following him on all of his social media.
Jason
We'll make sure we have that down in the description of this podcast so you can go check him out straight. 6 fan STR8.
Jason
Kev pretty simple once you see it, make sure you're following him.
John
I I know that I've I've watched your show and and every Thursday you know I'm there.
John
And whether it's on straight 6 fan channel or if it's on old car guy I'm there and I'm having fun and I'm watching other people comment and and it's a great group of people that you guys have together and I'm glad that you can kind of hang out with us.
John
For a little bit and promote your channel a lot more, I think that's pretty cool and also you like nerd cars and 70s cars.
John
You're you're checking all the good boxes so far that's.
John
Great of all the silly stories and things that you said.
John
Have you had anybody that is straight up said what are you doing or making fun of you for for having off brand cars other than the guy raising his hand here, Jason?
Grant
Well, you know most of the comments were hating on the two barrel.
Grant
You know?
Grant
I guess you you.
Grant
It's easy to forget the hater comments, right?
Grant
Like Jason, I am pretty good about like will screenshot each other.
Grant
Like here.
Grant
A lot of this guy like you know and so you try to kill him with kindness.
Grant
I I I really subscribe Gary Vay ner chuk.
Grant
Kind of thing is like.
Grant
Dude, what is going?
Grant
So wrong in your life right now.
Grant
But you gotta feel like you gotta go out of your way to say something so nasty like this.
Grant
And so generally speaking, that's the perch I take.
Grant
Dude like you really took the time, got away to make some nasty negative talk.
Grant
I'm sorry Dean, but that must suck to be you, you know.
John
Have you anybody had anybody in real life in like you go to a car show and somebody there or your go to a car cruise and hang out and somebody says what the hell are you doing?
John
Why are?
John
You, why do you?
John
Put more than a nickel into this junker that you're.
Grant
No, I haven't had that, but that's probably a small sample size that took the fair amount to one.
Jason
Oh yes.
Grant
One car show is an old Ford car show.
Grant
I want most unique on a day in which the like rain and chance of thunderstorms scared a lot of people away from Blue Springs, MO.
Grant
But you know it's parked between the Ford Durangos and another Ford Fairmont.
Grant
So I was in good company.
Grant
No, I haven't haven't had to deal with that yet, but just wait till the Grand Prix.
Grant
When the that split brick the split headlights in that front.
Grant
Brick nose shows up to some car shows.
Grant
Well, I'm sure I'll be fielding those questions for sure.
John
Yeah, I do remember myself. A friend of ours in high school. He couldn't afford a lot of things and he had an 81 Impala was gold 4 door.
John
With a tan vinyl top and tan interior, just a brick police car 4 door.
John
And we sat there and stared at it because I think it was his moms car or as aunts car.
John
We said what the heck are we going to do with this thing?
John
Well, we went to the swap meet and we bought some 78 Camaro 5 spoke rallies. You know the the five spoke Z28 wheels with the little trim rings.
John
But White letter tires on that stuck them on that car and we paint them the same colors of the car and we built a pretty hot 327 and stuck.
John
That in there with a.
John
And it had a chunky Cam and it had good exhaust and everything on it.
John
And we drove that thing around and it was stoplight quick for the kids, you know.
John
And it was fun and it would melt the.
John
Tires off of it, but we drove it through the car, cruises with everybody having St rods and 30s and 40s cars and everybody got a Red 70 Chevelle.
John
And everybody got a, you know, a green or a white Mustang. 67 or 9 Mustang and we got laughed out of the local burger joint because we were trying to be out of the norm. But that was in late 80s, early 90s.
John
Peace, and that was when you had to have a Chevelle or a Mustang, or nobody gave a crap about you.
John
And here we're trying to drive this gold Impala through the parking lot and and everybody screaming at him that it's his moms car.
John
And what the hell are you doing?
John
But I still have that mindset and that's what gets people attention and I've still carried that mindset.
John
Onto today, and that's that's why I can't wait to drive a a wood grain K car convertible.
Grant
When you talk K cars, I still think we isolate the opportunities out there to break the Internet with.
Grant
A Hellcat diplomat is still one of my dreams.
John
Yes, and that way you have a Hellcat diplomat that is all green and it just says Hunter on the license plate.
John
It has so many meanings.
Jason
I'd be glorious.
Well, you know one of the things that.
We that we take away from from this episode of the Get Out Drive.
One cast is learning that odd looking cars or not so popular cars can be project cars.
4 door cars can be project cars, doesn't matter what you're driving.
You can make them.
Cool, you can throw a set of wheels on it you.
Can tint the windows you.
Can tuck the bumpers.
You can do whatever you want.
At the end.
Of the day, it's your ride.
You're building it for.
You and your biggest critic.
Should and only should be yourself.
Don't worry about what the haters are going to hate on.
This project is something that you're doing for your liking for what you want to do, and for nobody else.
So if you're listening to this and there's only one thing you take away from this podcast, if you're building a car, you're building a project, do it for yourself, because you're not spending anybody elses money.
You're spending your own.
If you had somebody elses budget, you could do a lot more with a car.
It's easy for someone to sit back armchair quarterback a build on a car with somebody elses budget.
Nobody knows what that is, and one of the things about being friends with Grant for as long as I have side conversations, we have that tax the calls that whatever is that he is his biggest critic when it comes to building his car, and that is something that keeps him successful in doing what he's doing, regardless of whether a simple brake job takes him 10 episodes.
On his car on his YouTube channel.
Grant
Hey now.
Jason
No, I'm kidding.
I had to.
Bring that up either way.
You look at it.
It's about having fun.
It's about sharing your experience.
We are real world people.
We make mistakes.
We have problems.
And we're not afraid to share that on our videos or on our YouTube channels because, you know, not because we want to be critiqued, but because we're not trying to fake it.
We're not trying to be somebody else.
One of the things that you're going to get when you watch straight 6 fan on his YouTube channel is you're going to get Grant Tommy.
You're going to get everything that he knows he's going to tell you.
What he doesn't know.
He's not going to pretend and it's real world stuff.
So if you want to see something that I'm going to try and do.
This in one.
Take is budget minded, relatable and creative builds.
Then you're going to want to watch straight 6 fan because.
That's exactly what.
He's doing over there.
Grant thank you so much.
For coming on to the get out and Drive podcast.
I love being able to sit here candidly and be able to chat with you because when we're doing our show, it's more hands on.
We're trying to watch the chat or trying to keep up with comments and questions and stuff like that, and here it's just a couple of guys sitting around.
Talking about post cars.
