1
00:00:02,369 --> 00:00:03,880
Welcome to Tool
Time on location.
2
00:00:03,904 --> 00:00:05,916
Today we're coming to you
from Hernando's Junkyard.
3
00:00:05,940 --> 00:00:07,973
Thank you, Heidi.
4
00:00:08,042 --> 00:00:12,544
Well, right now I'm standing
next to a pile of old, useless debris.
5
00:00:12,612 --> 00:00:15,926
And of course there's the
rest of the stuff in the junkyard.
6
00:00:15,950 --> 00:00:18,483
Now, most of us will probably
go through our entire lives
7
00:00:18,552 --> 00:00:20,919
without ever visiting
an auto-salvage yard.
8
00:00:20,988 --> 00:00:22,732
I, for one, as a
child spent hours
9
00:00:22,756 --> 00:00:24,067
frolicking through this junkyard
10
00:00:24,091 --> 00:00:25,991
next to all these
old, rusted hulks.
11
00:00:26,060 --> 00:00:28,861
The noxious chemicals,
the pools of Freon and oil.
12
00:00:30,497 --> 00:00:32,397
That explains so much.
13
00:00:32,466 --> 00:00:33,798
But not anymore.
14
00:00:33,868 --> 00:00:36,046
The revered junkyard's no
longer a hip, happening place to be.
15
00:00:36,070 --> 00:00:38,270
Kids today have malls to go to.
16
00:00:38,339 --> 00:00:40,379
Do you suppose
they call it a junkyard
17
00:00:40,407 --> 00:00:42,485
because this is where the Chinese
people keep their old vessels?
18
00:00:42,509 --> 00:00:45,589
"That one's got a big hole
in it! Move it to the back!"
19
00:00:45,645 --> 00:00:47,145
I don't think so, Tim.
20
00:00:47,214 --> 00:00:49,326
And to guide us through this
boulevard of broken dreams is
21
00:00:49,350 --> 00:00:52,184
the owner of Hernando's, Larry.
22
00:00:52,253 --> 00:00:54,364
Larry, how're you
doing? Hey, Tool Man.
23
00:00:54,388 --> 00:00:56,154
Where's Hernando? Hey, Al.
24
00:00:56,223 --> 00:00:58,134
Oh, he went to that
great junkyard in the sky.
25
00:00:58,158 --> 00:01:00,825
Years ago. Yeah. Actually,
26
00:01:00,895 --> 00:01:02,594
Hernando's ashes,
27
00:01:02,662 --> 00:01:05,275
they're in the ashtray of
that Metropolitan right there.
28
00:01:05,299 --> 00:01:07,232
It was a great
service, very emotional.
29
00:01:07,301 --> 00:01:09,467
Put him in there butt-first.
30
00:01:10,905 --> 00:01:11,948
When I was a kid,
remember that dog
31
00:01:11,972 --> 00:01:13,449
that used to bother
me all the time?
32
00:01:13,473 --> 00:01:14,951
You're talking about
Snuggles? Snuggles, yeah.
33
00:01:14,975 --> 00:01:17,453
Oh, yeah. He's still
here. That's impossible.
34
00:01:17,477 --> 00:01:20,913
In dog years he'd be, well, old.
35
00:01:20,981 --> 00:01:25,350
He's right over here.
Look for yourself.
36
00:01:25,419 --> 00:01:28,820
He likes the shade of this
Hudson here. I don't know why.
37
00:01:28,889 --> 00:01:31,790
What do you say,
Snuggles? Remember me?
38
00:01:37,331 --> 00:01:39,498
I haven't seen him
move like that in years.
39
00:01:39,566 --> 00:01:41,300
He must really hate you.
40
00:01:41,368 --> 00:01:45,671
He's probably still miffed since I
told him he had to stop dating my leg.
41
00:01:45,739 --> 00:01:47,539
Moving along.
42
00:01:47,608 --> 00:01:50,442
Now, you're probably wondering
how anybody could find anything
43
00:01:50,511 --> 00:01:52,143
in a junkyard.
44
00:01:52,212 --> 00:01:54,123
Well, you know, these days pretty
much everything is computerized.
45
00:01:54,147 --> 00:01:57,248
Of course, that's the only
computer I need, you know?
46
00:01:57,317 --> 00:01:59,518
A place for everything,
and everything in its place.
47
00:01:59,586 --> 00:02:01,786
All right, Mr. Organization.
48
00:02:01,821 --> 00:02:04,989
How about this? A
1967 Dodge Slant Six.
49
00:02:05,059 --> 00:02:06,558
Starter motor.
50
00:02:08,729 --> 00:02:11,763
There you go. Slant Six.
51
00:02:11,832 --> 00:02:13,910
There's your
starter right there.
52
00:02:13,934 --> 00:02:16,446
You have to try just a little
bit harder to stump old Larry.
53
00:02:16,470 --> 00:02:17,914
All right, Larry.
How about this?
54
00:02:17,938 --> 00:02:22,040
A thermostat cover
to a Bonneville. A 428.
55
00:02:22,109 --> 00:02:25,911
How about right here on the
end of the old bathroom key?
56
00:02:25,979 --> 00:02:28,513
That's just freaky.
No, that's just lucky.
57
00:02:28,582 --> 00:02:30,760
Oh, yeah. And your
career is built on,
58
00:02:30,784 --> 00:02:32,895
like, talent and skill, right?
59
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,587
Moving on, Larry.
60
00:02:35,656 --> 00:02:37,867
All right, now it's time to
take a look at the big daddy
61
00:02:37,891 --> 00:02:39,858
of junkyard equipment.
62
00:02:39,926 --> 00:02:41,993
Car crusher.
63
00:02:42,062 --> 00:02:43,740
All right, Larry. Why don't you tell
our crowd something about this?
64
00:02:43,764 --> 00:02:46,798
I'll be glad to, Tim. This
portable car crusher is powered by
65
00:02:46,867 --> 00:02:49,534
a 120-horsepower Detroit Diesel.
66
00:02:49,603 --> 00:02:52,716
It will crush a two-ton
car down to 12 inches.
67
00:02:52,740 --> 00:02:54,305
And my guess is,
68
00:02:54,375 --> 00:02:57,843
these are the gallant road
warriors awaiting their final fate.
69
00:02:57,911 --> 00:03:01,946
Ah. Sweet Galaxie,
noble Skylark.
70
00:03:02,015 --> 00:03:04,449
And look at this, a
Corvair convertible.
71
00:03:04,518 --> 00:03:06,752
My first car was a Corvair.
72
00:03:06,820 --> 00:03:08,564
Just like this.
Same color, actually.
73
00:03:08,588 --> 00:03:10,633
Even the same Western
Michigan parking sticker
74
00:03:10,657 --> 00:03:12,590
on the windshield.
75
00:03:12,659 --> 00:03:14,792
Wait a minute.
76
00:03:14,861 --> 00:03:17,495
I think this is my car.
When did this come in?
77
00:03:17,564 --> 00:03:19,442
It came in about a year ago.
78
00:03:19,466 --> 00:03:21,666
It's been picked pretty clean.
79
00:03:22,235 --> 00:03:24,202
No kidding.
80
00:03:24,271 --> 00:03:27,672
I should've never sold this
car. Tim, we're still rolling.
81
00:03:29,610 --> 00:03:31,710
Well, she's here
if you want her.
82
00:03:33,314 --> 00:03:34,579
For now.
83
00:04:30,437 --> 00:04:31,903
Week four.
84
00:04:31,972 --> 00:04:36,307
The everyday existence
of a typical suburban family.
85
00:04:36,376 --> 00:04:39,243
This is good. This is good.
You can get me studying.
86
00:04:39,312 --> 00:04:43,114
A middle-aged mom goes back
to school to recapture her youth.
87
00:04:47,621 --> 00:04:49,654
Pathetic? You be the judge.
88
00:04:51,959 --> 00:04:53,658
You want pathetic?
89
00:04:53,727 --> 00:04:55,104
Why don't you take some
shots of a 14-year-old
90
00:04:55,128 --> 00:04:57,488
who never gets an allowance?
91
00:04:58,965 --> 00:04:59,965
And cut.
92
00:05:02,069 --> 00:05:04,881
Hello! Hello! How
was soccer practice?
93
00:05:04,905 --> 00:05:06,971
Great. Great. I have
something for you.
94
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,775
Stinky soccer clothes you
should be laundering yourself?
95
00:05:10,844 --> 00:05:12,143
Ah, no. A hug.
96
00:05:14,147 --> 00:05:16,425
I'll take that. Oh, I've
got something for you.
97
00:05:16,449 --> 00:05:19,195
This is the application for
the University of Pennsylvania.
98
00:05:19,219 --> 00:05:20,819
Oh, cool. Cool.
99
00:05:20,887 --> 00:05:23,066
You know, a lot of guys on the
team are sending in video resumes
100
00:05:23,090 --> 00:05:24,868
along with their applications.
101
00:05:24,892 --> 00:05:26,168
You mean like soccer highlights?
102
00:05:26,192 --> 00:05:28,204
Yeah. And talking
about themselves.
103
00:05:28,228 --> 00:05:31,140
If I did one, it would be a chance to
show those colleges "Brad, the guy."
104
00:05:31,164 --> 00:05:33,009
I'm sure they're waiting
by their mailboxes.
105
00:05:34,801 --> 00:05:37,268
Anyways,
106
00:05:37,337 --> 00:05:38,881
I'd love to do a
video but I heard
107
00:05:38,905 --> 00:05:41,139
these guys charge,
like, a thousand bucks.
108
00:05:41,208 --> 00:05:43,353
Well, you know, I know
somebody that's really talented
109
00:05:43,377 --> 00:05:45,943
who could do it for
considerably less.
110
00:05:46,013 --> 00:05:48,346
You've gotta be kidding! Mark?
111
00:05:48,415 --> 00:05:50,826
You already got the camera.
You could do the editing at school.
112
00:05:50,850 --> 00:05:53,251
We'll pay for the tape. Well,
113
00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:57,188
doing an interesting video about
Brad would be a real tough challenge.
114
00:05:58,992 --> 00:06:00,603
Yeah and me getting
through without killing you
115
00:06:00,627 --> 00:06:03,306
would be an even tougher
challenge, wouldn't it?
116
00:06:03,330 --> 00:06:06,398
This is great! Teamwork!
117
00:06:06,466 --> 00:06:10,368
All right. Well, let's go upstairs
and discuss my hair options.
118
00:06:13,006 --> 00:06:14,072
Hi, there.
119
00:06:14,141 --> 00:06:15,440
Oh, hi. Hi.
120
00:06:17,944 --> 00:06:20,089
You smell good.
Where have you been?
121
00:06:20,113 --> 00:06:23,047
The junkyard.
122
00:06:23,116 --> 00:06:25,628
On the way home, I picked
you up something real special.
123
00:06:25,652 --> 00:06:26,985
You did?
124
00:06:30,223 --> 00:06:32,924
"The Gabor Sisters
Beauty Sampler."
125
00:06:35,595 --> 00:06:38,129
Well, this is so thoughtful.
126
00:06:38,198 --> 00:06:40,198
You're not getting another car.
127
00:06:41,868 --> 00:06:43,212
Well, it's not really a car car.
128
00:06:43,236 --> 00:06:45,014
It's more of a shell of a car.
129
00:06:45,038 --> 00:06:48,050
You know, I want to buy it from
the junkyard. $165, come on!
130
00:06:48,074 --> 00:06:50,153
And eventually it'll become my
next project. What do you think?
131
00:06:50,177 --> 00:06:53,945
Until then that hunk of junk just
sits, what? Out in the front yard?
132
00:06:54,014 --> 00:06:55,557
Actually, in the
driveway. Oh, man!
133
00:06:55,581 --> 00:06:57,994
Just for a couple of months till I
find a place to store it. You know?
134
00:06:58,018 --> 00:07:01,386
It'll start snowing soon.
You won't even see it.
135
00:07:01,454 --> 00:07:04,822
And then once the snow melts,
then we have a rusted hunk of junk.
136
00:07:04,891 --> 00:07:07,659
It's already a
rusted hunk of junk.
137
00:07:07,727 --> 00:07:10,395
But this is, get
this, my first car.
138
00:07:10,463 --> 00:07:12,308
Your first car, your third
car, your 20-third car...
139
00:07:12,332 --> 00:07:14,009
No, no, no. You
don't understand.
140
00:07:14,033 --> 00:07:16,873
This is the first car I ever
owned. It's that old Corvair.
141
00:07:16,936 --> 00:07:19,148
Honey, you don't have
the time to work on this car.
142
00:07:19,172 --> 00:07:21,217
And we don't have the space
to store it until you have the time.
143
00:07:21,241 --> 00:07:22,685
We certainly don't
have the money.
144
00:07:22,709 --> 00:07:24,620
I mean, it'll cost a
fortune to restore it.
145
00:07:24,644 --> 00:07:26,889
And we gotta save that money
for the kids' college funds.
146
00:07:26,913 --> 00:07:29,814
Okay, okay. I understand
all that. But this is fate.
147
00:07:29,882 --> 00:07:31,160
I mean, what are the odds of me
148
00:07:31,184 --> 00:07:33,318
crossing paths
with my old Corvair?
149
00:07:33,386 --> 00:07:36,754
Better than the odds of
me letting you bring it home.
150
00:07:42,996 --> 00:07:45,476
Hey, Mark. Maybe I
used too much mousse.
151
00:07:50,136 --> 00:07:52,576
You look like a pineapple.
152
00:07:53,807 --> 00:07:55,317
Let me see your script.
153
00:07:55,341 --> 00:07:57,553
I don't have a script. I
figured I was just gonna wing it.
154
00:07:57,577 --> 00:08:00,145
Won't the Ivy League love that?
155
00:08:00,213 --> 00:08:02,792
Look, I just don't want my video
looking like everybody else's.
156
00:08:02,816 --> 00:08:04,861
All right, you ready? Yeah.
157
00:08:04,885 --> 00:08:07,352
And action.
158
00:08:07,421 --> 00:08:10,488
Yo, yo, yo, what's
up? I'm Brad, I'm bad.
159
00:08:12,992 --> 00:08:16,027
This is my pad.
160
00:08:16,096 --> 00:08:19,242
This is where I kick back when
I'm not kicking in all those goals.
161
00:08:19,266 --> 00:08:21,586
Oh, oh, look at
who just walked in.
162
00:08:23,002 --> 00:08:26,015
Folks, this is the
number-one lady in my life.
163
00:08:26,039 --> 00:08:27,950
Hey, Mom, say hi.
164
00:08:27,974 --> 00:08:29,841
Hi.
165
00:08:29,909 --> 00:08:32,255
No matter how many goals I
score or how many tests I ace,
166
00:08:32,279 --> 00:08:34,713
I always make time
for my main mom.
167
00:08:37,317 --> 00:08:41,051
No, honey, no. You're
laying it on real thick.
168
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,053
What am I supposed to say?
169
00:08:43,122 --> 00:08:45,456
Hi, my name is Brad. I
really love to play soccer.
170
00:08:45,525 --> 00:08:47,236
And I'd love to come
play for your school.
171
00:08:47,260 --> 00:08:49,660
That's better. Hey, hey, hey.
172
00:08:49,729 --> 00:08:51,562
I'm Tim Taylor. I'm Brad's dad.
173
00:08:51,631 --> 00:08:53,431
I just found my first car today.
174
00:08:55,602 --> 00:08:57,235
I'd like to keep
it but somebody,
175
00:08:57,304 --> 00:08:59,604
I won't mention
names, won't let me.
176
00:09:00,307 --> 00:09:01,406
Cut.
177
00:09:07,414 --> 00:09:08,813
Hey, Wilson.
178
00:09:08,882 --> 00:09:11,202
Well, top o' the morning
to you, Taylor lass.
179
00:09:11,251 --> 00:09:12,717
What are you doing there?
180
00:09:12,786 --> 00:09:16,032
Oh, some friends of mine
from Ireland are getting married.
181
00:09:16,056 --> 00:09:18,033
I'm building them
a wedding arch.
182
00:09:18,057 --> 00:09:19,457
It's really beautiful.
183
00:09:19,525 --> 00:09:21,304
Well, thank you very much.
184
00:09:21,328 --> 00:09:23,072
So, how are things
over in Taylorville?
185
00:09:23,096 --> 00:09:24,963
Ah, well,
186
00:09:25,032 --> 00:09:29,300
for starters, Tim got me a
Gabor Sisters Beauty Sampler.
187
00:09:29,369 --> 00:09:31,689
Ah, he bought another car, huh?
188
00:09:33,273 --> 00:09:34,739
He's pushing for it.
189
00:09:34,807 --> 00:09:37,075
He found a shell
in the junkyard.
190
00:09:37,144 --> 00:09:39,155
And he doesn't have the time
or the money to spend on it.
191
00:09:39,179 --> 00:09:40,356
And we have no
place to store it.
192
00:09:40,380 --> 00:09:41,690
But just because
it's his first car,
193
00:09:41,714 --> 00:09:43,226
he thinks it's this
really big deal...
194
00:09:43,250 --> 00:09:44,928
Now, wait... Whoa,
whoa, whoa, just a second.
195
00:09:44,952 --> 00:09:46,729
Tim found his first car?
196
00:09:46,753 --> 00:09:48,364
Apparently, you think
it's a big deal, too?
197
00:09:48,388 --> 00:09:50,199
I would kill for my first car.
198
00:09:50,223 --> 00:09:52,434
You know, it was
a little Morris Minor.
199
00:09:52,458 --> 00:09:54,759
I'll never forget
it. Gosh, I miss it!
200
00:09:54,828 --> 00:09:57,595
You keep a picture of
it in your wallet? Hmm.
201
00:09:57,664 --> 00:09:59,964
What is the deal with
men and their first cars?
202
00:10:00,033 --> 00:10:03,701
Well, Jill, sometimes in our
society, a young man's self-image is
203
00:10:03,769 --> 00:10:05,982
defined by his first automobile.
204
00:10:06,006 --> 00:10:08,706
No. You're saying that men define
who they are as human beings
205
00:10:08,775 --> 00:10:10,186
by four wheels and an engine?
206
00:10:10,210 --> 00:10:12,243
Don't you think
that's kind of shallow?
207
00:10:12,312 --> 00:10:13,845
No, I don't think so.
208
00:10:13,913 --> 00:10:16,147
No, of course, you
don't. You're one of them.
209
00:10:17,717 --> 00:10:21,753
No. The first car represents
freedom and independence.
210
00:10:21,822 --> 00:10:26,757
I tell you, there's nothing more
exhilarating for a young man
211
00:10:26,826 --> 00:10:30,194
than getting behind the wheel
of the car, revving up that engine,
212
00:10:30,263 --> 00:10:32,863
racing off to his
first Mozart festival.
213
00:10:36,002 --> 00:10:39,037
Well, maybe that's just me.
214
00:10:39,105 --> 00:10:41,739
I don't get it. I just... I
guess it's just because
215
00:10:41,808 --> 00:10:44,275
I was never emotionally
attached to a car.
216
00:10:44,344 --> 00:10:47,190
Well, Jill, have you ever
had any rite of passage
217
00:10:47,214 --> 00:10:49,914
that showed your independence?
218
00:10:49,983 --> 00:10:53,918
Yeah. When I moved out of my
parents' house and got my own apartment.
219
00:10:53,987 --> 00:10:55,052
It was so cute.
220
00:10:56,823 --> 00:11:00,925
I had these Doobie Brothers
posters plastered all over the walls.
221
00:11:00,994 --> 00:11:04,295
And this waterbed that
would slosh whenever I was...
222
00:11:06,866 --> 00:11:08,733
Did I mention the
Doobie Brothers posters?
223
00:11:08,801 --> 00:11:11,735
Ah, yes, yes. Yes, you did.
224
00:11:11,804 --> 00:11:16,641
So, you're saying that to Tim, this is
way more than a rusted hunk of metal.
225
00:11:16,710 --> 00:11:20,812
Yes. Just think of it as your
apartment, without the sloshing.
226
00:11:25,251 --> 00:11:27,797
So, if you're looking for a star
forward who's got all the right moves
227
00:11:27,821 --> 00:11:30,032
on and off the field,
you gotta think Brad.
228
00:11:30,056 --> 00:11:32,034
All right? You got two choices.
229
00:11:32,058 --> 00:11:34,625
I could play for you, or
I could play against you.
230
00:11:34,694 --> 00:11:36,727
Either way, I'll
see you this fall.
231
00:11:36,797 --> 00:11:39,597
Hasta la vista, baby.
232
00:11:46,039 --> 00:11:48,517
Tim, I was thinking about
this thing with the first car.
233
00:11:48,541 --> 00:11:50,720
I've been thinking about it all
day. That's why I'm cooking dinner
234
00:11:50,744 --> 00:11:52,388
to keep my mind off
it. Just keep cooking,
235
00:11:52,412 --> 00:11:54,057
cutting, cooking, cutting,
cooking... You can have the car.
236
00:11:54,081 --> 00:11:55,441
That's how bad
it's gotten to me.
237
00:11:55,481 --> 00:11:58,783
I swear I just heard you
say, "You could have the car."
238
00:11:58,852 --> 00:12:02,754
Cut and cook. Cut
and cook... I did.
239
00:12:02,822 --> 00:12:06,757
Now, don't toy with me. I'm
in a very delicate condition.
240
00:12:06,826 --> 00:12:09,705
You can have the car.
Wilson said that he'd store it.
241
00:12:09,729 --> 00:12:10,862
I can have the car?
242
00:12:10,931 --> 00:12:12,108
You can have the car.
243
00:12:12,132 --> 00:12:14,632
Say it again. You
can have the car.
244
00:12:14,701 --> 00:12:16,601
God bless those Gabor sisters!
245
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:22,573
Hey, Larry!
246
00:12:22,642 --> 00:12:24,642
I've come to get the car!
247
00:12:24,711 --> 00:12:26,744
Oh, uh...
248
00:12:28,748 --> 00:12:30,426
Look, Snuggles, I'm
just here to get my car
249
00:12:30,450 --> 00:12:32,527
and then I'm gonna
take off, okay?
250
00:12:35,455 --> 00:12:37,488
Look! Poodle!
251
00:12:38,791 --> 00:12:40,891
Look there.
252
00:12:42,162 --> 00:12:44,562
Wait a minute! Larry!
253
00:12:54,407 --> 00:12:56,886
I'm gonna hold you
personally responsible for this!
254
00:13:03,183 --> 00:13:05,016
Well, hi, honey. Did
you get your car?
255
00:13:05,085 --> 00:13:08,486
Yeah. I got there just in time to
see it turned into a big, steel tortilla.
256
00:13:08,554 --> 00:13:10,221
Oh, my God!
257
00:13:10,290 --> 00:13:12,001
And on the way home
I realized I'm an idiot.
258
00:13:12,025 --> 00:13:13,903
Do you want to
know why I'm an idiot?
259
00:13:13,927 --> 00:13:16,327
Because you listened to
me and you didn't get the car?
260
00:13:16,396 --> 00:13:18,596
If only it were that simple.
261
00:13:19,599 --> 00:13:21,010
All the way home in the car,
262
00:13:21,034 --> 00:13:22,411
I was trying to figure
out a way to blame you.
263
00:13:22,435 --> 00:13:23,913
Truth is, it's my fault.
264
00:13:23,937 --> 00:13:26,149
I should never have sold
that Corvair in the first place.
265
00:13:26,173 --> 00:13:29,140
You can't blame yourself
for selling a car 25 years ago.
266
00:13:29,209 --> 00:13:32,043
Oh, watch me.
267
00:13:32,112 --> 00:13:34,946
So what if it had 130,000
well-earned miles on it?
268
00:13:35,015 --> 00:13:37,126
So what if the defroster
never worked in the wintertime?
269
00:13:37,150 --> 00:13:41,286
So what if the muffler sounded like Al's
mom after a whole day of Beano? Huh?
270
00:13:41,354 --> 00:13:42,765
Honey, you want
a nice cup of tea?
271
00:13:42,789 --> 00:13:44,300
A cup of tea's not gonna cut it!
272
00:13:44,324 --> 00:13:45,656
Bratwurst?
273
00:13:48,962 --> 00:13:53,197
You know the sad irony, the
cruel irony here? The car crusher?
274
00:13:53,266 --> 00:13:54,986
It was a Binford. Oh.
275
00:13:56,669 --> 00:13:57,980
Hey, Dad, you get the car?
276
00:13:58,004 --> 00:13:59,214
I'm an idiot. You
want to know why?
277
00:13:59,238 --> 00:14:01,071
No. No need to explain.
278
00:14:04,076 --> 00:14:06,522
Your dad's car got
crunched at the junkyard
279
00:14:06,546 --> 00:14:09,224
and it's all my fault. I wish
there was something I could do.
280
00:14:09,248 --> 00:14:12,583
We could try to find
him an old Corvair frame.
281
00:14:12,652 --> 00:14:14,385
That's a great idea.
282
00:14:14,454 --> 00:14:15,986
I could check all the junkyards,
283
00:14:16,055 --> 00:14:17,575
go through his
old car magazines.
284
00:14:17,624 --> 00:14:19,402
Yeah. You could
even check the Internet.
285
00:14:19,426 --> 00:14:21,392
You could help me.
286
00:14:21,461 --> 00:14:24,328
Why would I help you?
287
00:14:24,397 --> 00:14:27,265
Because, Brad, no matter
how many goals you score,
288
00:14:27,333 --> 00:14:29,733
no matter how
many tests you ace,
289
00:14:29,802 --> 00:14:32,536
you've always got
time for your main mom.
290
00:14:37,510 --> 00:14:39,088
Brad, do you think that
your father would notice
291
00:14:39,112 --> 00:14:41,045
if the Corvair was a '67?
292
00:14:41,114 --> 00:14:44,393
Mom, Dad would notice if the
dipstick was the wrong color.
293
00:14:44,417 --> 00:14:45,984
No, thanks. Bye.
294
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:48,419
Well,
295
00:14:48,488 --> 00:14:51,255
that was the last junkyard.
So much for that good idea.
296
00:14:51,323 --> 00:14:53,724
Hey, Mom, check out
the Corvair Club Magazine.
297
00:14:53,793 --> 00:14:56,739
There's a guy selling a
'66 Corvair just like Dad's.
298
00:14:56,763 --> 00:14:58,062
Let me see here.
299
00:14:59,498 --> 00:15:01,243
Well, you know what?
Maybe I should call him.
300
00:15:01,267 --> 00:15:03,901
He might have a lead on a frame.
301
00:15:03,970 --> 00:15:06,582
Yeah. It says he's the
president of the Corvair Club.
302
00:15:06,606 --> 00:15:09,140
If anyone's gonna
know, it's gonna be him.
303
00:15:09,208 --> 00:15:11,409
Hello. Is this Gunther Frank?
304
00:15:13,012 --> 00:15:16,047
Oh, sorry. Gunther Frank?
305
00:15:19,419 --> 00:15:21,252
Uh...
306
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:26,590
Gunther, I saw your car in the Corvair
Club Magazine. And I was wondering...
307
00:15:26,659 --> 00:15:29,226
Yes, yes, it's wunderbar.
308
00:15:30,463 --> 00:15:32,930
It's very, very wunderbar. Yeah.
309
00:15:32,998 --> 00:15:35,099
No, no, I'm not
looking for that car.
310
00:15:35,168 --> 00:15:37,768
I'm looking for that
car, only a junker.
311
00:15:39,139 --> 00:15:41,038
You do?
312
00:15:41,107 --> 00:15:45,743
Oh, great! Okay. Well, where
would we go to meet you?
313
00:15:45,812 --> 00:15:48,412
Yeah, yeah. We'll
be right over there.
314
00:15:48,481 --> 00:15:53,050
Auf Wiedersehen
to you, too, Gunther.
315
00:15:53,119 --> 00:15:55,965
Here at Binford, we're not just
tool people. Darn it, we're educators!
316
00:15:55,989 --> 00:15:59,490
That's right. Each week Tim
teaches you what not to do.
317
00:16:03,763 --> 00:16:06,164
After a recent
automotive loss in my life,
318
00:16:06,232 --> 00:16:09,033
I convinced Binford to start a
program that will educate kids,
319
00:16:09,102 --> 00:16:10,901
and save cars at the same time.
320
00:16:10,971 --> 00:16:14,317
Our aim is to get the kids off the
street and into the garage restoring cars.
321
00:16:14,341 --> 00:16:17,353
Now, Binford will supply
the tools and the work space,
322
00:16:17,377 --> 00:16:19,655
but we need you to
supply the vehicle.
323
00:16:19,679 --> 00:16:21,579
Now where are we
gonna get those cars?
324
00:16:21,647 --> 00:16:23,381
Hmm.
325
00:16:23,450 --> 00:16:24,482
Welcome to...
326
00:16:28,087 --> 00:16:30,666
That's right. Today we've got
some pictures of junkyard cars
327
00:16:30,690 --> 00:16:33,836
that you can save from
a crushing, cruel fate.
328
00:16:33,860 --> 00:16:36,627
Now some of these pictures might
be a bit graphic for the youngsters
329
00:16:36,696 --> 00:16:38,195
so, hide them now.
330
00:16:44,671 --> 00:16:46,782
Anyway, first up we have
331
00:16:46,806 --> 00:16:51,742
a 1972 Mercury
Comet for only $340.
332
00:16:51,811 --> 00:16:55,512
The body's actually held up
pretty well, unlike some of us.
333
00:16:56,615 --> 00:16:58,060
Little bit of work,
she's back to new.
334
00:16:58,084 --> 00:16:59,183
Does she deserve to die?
335
00:16:59,251 --> 00:17:00,818
I don't think so.
336
00:17:00,887 --> 00:17:02,665
So, come on, people.
Pick up those phones
337
00:17:02,689 --> 00:17:05,823
and call 1-600-Z-CARZ-4-U.
338
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,337
Operators are standing by.
339
00:17:11,898 --> 00:17:13,608
Adopt A Car. Adopt A Car.
340
00:17:13,632 --> 00:17:17,601
Okay. Now, our second item up to
sponsor is a 1963 Chevrolet Impala.
341
00:17:17,670 --> 00:17:19,882
It needs wheels, tires, running
gear. Pretty much everything.
342
00:17:19,906 --> 00:17:23,241
Action figure sold separately.
343
00:17:23,309 --> 00:17:26,477
Sponsor this for $200 and you
can turn this into a kid's first car.
344
00:17:26,546 --> 00:17:28,912
And he can fill it with
his own memories, huh?
345
00:17:28,981 --> 00:17:31,815
Call now, will you?
$200. Sponsor this car.
346
00:17:34,453 --> 00:17:38,556
I can't hear the
phones ringing. Hello?
347
00:17:38,624 --> 00:17:42,093
All right, you call right now,
lunch with the Tool Man.
348
00:17:45,698 --> 00:17:48,232
All right, all right.
Lunch with Heidi.
349
00:17:53,739 --> 00:17:55,217
Why won't the garage door open?
350
00:17:55,241 --> 00:17:56,740
Well, I don't know.
351
00:17:56,809 --> 00:17:59,310
I tell you not to lock that.
Then I can't pull the car in.
352
00:17:59,378 --> 00:18:01,813
Well, why don't
you check it out?
353
00:18:07,854 --> 00:18:10,214
What do you think? What is it?
354
00:18:12,859 --> 00:18:15,359
It's a 1966 Corvair Corsa,
355
00:18:15,428 --> 00:18:17,761
four on the floor, 140 horses.
356
00:18:19,498 --> 00:18:21,999
You brought my car back
from the grave! Hallelujah!
357
00:18:23,436 --> 00:18:25,736
It's not your car. I know that.
358
00:18:25,805 --> 00:18:27,817
This is beautiful. What's
it doing in the garage?
359
00:18:27,841 --> 00:18:29,561
I bought it. You what?
360
00:18:29,608 --> 00:18:31,386
I was just gonna buy a frame.
361
00:18:31,410 --> 00:18:35,213
But the guy gave me such a
good deal, I couldn't resist it.
362
00:18:35,281 --> 00:18:37,521
What did you pay
for this? Nothing.
363
00:18:37,550 --> 00:18:38,716
What?
364
00:18:38,784 --> 00:18:40,904
I traded my Healey for it.
365
00:18:45,624 --> 00:18:49,126
You traded your fully-restored
Austin-Healey just so I could have this?
366
00:18:49,195 --> 00:18:50,694
Yeah, I did.
367
00:18:50,763 --> 00:18:52,897
You got freaking ripped off.
368
00:19:00,206 --> 00:19:02,573
Why? What do you mean?
369
00:19:02,642 --> 00:19:05,554
As much as I love Corvairs, a
Healey's worth a lot more than this.
370
00:19:05,578 --> 00:19:09,112
Oh, I like this car. The
whole family fits in it.
371
00:19:09,181 --> 00:19:12,149
It has an electrical
system that actually works.
372
00:19:14,453 --> 00:19:16,687
Is this Gunther's car?
373
00:19:16,756 --> 00:19:19,857
You know Gunther?
374
00:19:19,925 --> 00:19:22,538
Everybody knows Gunther. He's
the chairman of the Corvair Club.
375
00:19:22,562 --> 00:19:24,873
Well, wait. I don't get
it. Do you like it or not?
376
00:19:24,897 --> 00:19:28,566
I love this. I love this. This is the
nicest thing you've ever done for me.
377
00:19:28,635 --> 00:19:30,746
But we've gotta take it back and
get the Healey back, you know?
378
00:19:30,770 --> 00:19:33,003
I can't accept this. Why not?
379
00:19:34,374 --> 00:19:36,014
Well, I wanted my
Corvair back. Not his.
380
00:19:36,075 --> 00:19:38,042
Well, it's practically the same.
381
00:19:38,110 --> 00:19:39,488
Well, it's not really
about the car.
382
00:19:39,512 --> 00:19:41,190
It's about what it
represented to me.
383
00:19:41,214 --> 00:19:43,325
When I bought the Corvair, all
my V8 buddies thought it was, like,
384
00:19:43,349 --> 00:19:45,716
the biggest geek
mobile. But I loved it.
385
00:19:45,785 --> 00:19:47,685
The reason I... Well,
386
00:19:47,753 --> 00:19:50,332
your sense of self was defined
by your first set of wheels.
387
00:19:50,356 --> 00:19:51,700
Exactly. I mean, on the surface,
388
00:19:51,724 --> 00:19:53,302
Corvairs seemed like
they were the geek mobile,
389
00:19:53,326 --> 00:19:55,859
but under the surface,
they were, like, cutting edge.
390
00:19:55,928 --> 00:19:58,140
But I still want to
take it back. Okay.
391
00:19:58,164 --> 00:19:59,642
Tomorrow we'll do
that. But right now
392
00:19:59,666 --> 00:20:01,632
let's take an imaginary
trip in my old Corvair.
393
00:20:01,701 --> 00:20:03,000
Ooh. Okay.
394
00:20:03,069 --> 00:20:04,302
Okay.
395
00:20:04,370 --> 00:20:06,549
All right, shut your eyes.
396
00:20:06,573 --> 00:20:08,450
Tell me what your mind sees.
397
00:20:08,474 --> 00:20:11,842
Oh, it's nothing I
see, it's what I smell.
398
00:20:11,911 --> 00:20:13,611
Your Hai Karate.
399
00:20:15,215 --> 00:20:18,548
Christmas gift from
Aunt Barb. Mmm-hmm.
400
00:20:18,618 --> 00:20:20,863
Went to a drive-in
movie off campus.
401
00:20:20,887 --> 00:20:23,421
Double feature. Omen.
402
00:20:23,489 --> 00:20:24,489
Exorcist.
403
00:20:24,557 --> 00:20:25,668
Oh, yeah!
404
00:20:27,893 --> 00:20:30,160
Your mother shops at Penney's!
405
00:20:32,532 --> 00:20:34,565
You were so freaked out. Me?
406
00:20:34,634 --> 00:20:38,168
You were the one that had your
head buried in my chest all night.
407
00:20:40,072 --> 00:20:43,641
That wasn't 'cause
I was freaked out.
408
00:20:43,710 --> 00:20:45,621
I knew that. You did the
same thing when we saw
409
00:20:45,645 --> 00:20:47,945
The Sound of Music.
410
00:20:48,013 --> 00:20:50,815
The hills were alive.
411
00:20:50,883 --> 00:20:54,184
I don't know about alive. But
they were a lot higher then.
412
00:20:55,787 --> 00:20:57,933
Didn't we go to that Doobie
Brothers concert in this car?
413
00:20:57,957 --> 00:20:59,623
Yes. Yeah.
414
00:20:59,692 --> 00:21:01,236
And then we went
back to your place and...
415
00:21:01,260 --> 00:21:02,626
Sloshed.
416
00:21:16,108 --> 00:21:18,420
Hello. My name is Brad. I
really love to play soccer.
417
00:21:18,444 --> 00:21:21,245
And I'd love to come
play for your school.
418
00:21:22,648 --> 00:21:25,616
Hey, that was great.
419
00:21:25,684 --> 00:21:27,350
I don't get it.
420
00:21:27,420 --> 00:21:29,531
You only used one
line of dialog I gave you.
421
00:21:29,555 --> 00:21:31,722
What happened to all
my great interviews?
422
00:21:31,791 --> 00:21:33,557
I burned them.
423
00:21:34,393 --> 00:21:36,260
'Cause I care.
424
00:21:36,329 --> 00:21:39,763
Mark, I think that thing was
great. It really was a good job.
425
00:21:39,832 --> 00:21:42,111
How about this? You come
behind the scenes of Tool Time
426
00:21:42,135 --> 00:21:45,169
and do a brilliant
documentary on dear old Dad.
427
00:21:45,237 --> 00:21:47,737
Dad, I'm an artist,
not a magician.
428
00:21:51,811 --> 00:21:53,678
We're educators!
429
00:21:53,746 --> 00:21:55,780
Yeah! Yeah!
430
00:22:07,092 --> 00:22:09,738
Right now let's take an
imaginary trip in my old Corvair.
431
00:22:09,762 --> 00:22:11,740
Oh, if you can
open it, you mean?
