00:00This week on Orange County Choppers Original.
00:06So we've been working on a bike for a couple years now.
00:11She doesn't need to be led around somebody just as crazy or crazier than she is.
00:16Ow! Not that.
00:19We're going to take that bike out and build it for Joan.
00:23I'm not done yet here.
00:25Oh, okay.
00:30I'm not done yet.
01:02All right, Jimbo, let's go to the next one.
01:04Is this the one you wanted to do with the stuff we got in the back?
01:09Yes, that's been here for two years.
01:11So we've been working on a bike for a couple years now, and we keep tinkering with it.
01:15And finally, we had the opportunity to turn it into something really cool.
01:18So Paul decided to take what we've already started and use it and finish it up, and we're going to
01:23surprise Joan with it.
01:24So this is the bike.
01:25I don't know.
01:26You can see how much dust it's on.
01:27I've been in the back room for a couple years.
01:29This is the one my wife's always saying, when are you going to do my chopper?
01:32When are you going to do my chopper?
01:33So we have time now.
01:36We're pretty caught up.
01:37She's going to come in later.
01:38This is going to be a surprise for Saturday party.
01:42She doesn't know it, so she's going to come in and help me work on the bike a little bit.
01:46At least I think she's going to do that.
01:48She's bringing her girlfriend.
01:49That's going to be a huge distraction.
01:51Also, I'll be giving her a surprise wedding ring.
01:54I met Joanie K because I was looking for a dog, and through somebody else, they said, well, they know
02:03this lady that runs the shelter, and they have a mastiff there.
02:10And, of course, they said, well, they're going to put it down.
02:13And as soon as I heard that, it was like, no, I'll take the dog, you know?
02:16And that's pretty much how we met, you know?
02:18Then I started working at the shelter.
02:20I dropped the tree on her car, and I got her telephone number.
02:27So, yeah, dropping the tree on the car paid off.
02:33I just bought new tires and new wheels for this.
02:36Oh, I saw those.
02:37I didn't know what you were doing.
02:38That's good.
02:39I don't know if this spacing is going to be right.
02:41They're nice looking.
02:42Yeah, let's slide this up.
02:43Ready?
02:43One, two, three.
02:45That should be good, right?
02:47Yeah.
02:47Got this.
02:49That don't seem right.
02:50Probably going to need another space on here.
02:52I'm thinking.
02:54That's the front.
02:55That's the rear.
02:57This is the rear, okay.
02:59All the ratch, the stuff.
03:01Oh, it's in the, it's in that bin opener.
03:10Look at this.
03:13Wow.
03:16You don't want to strip that.
03:18Got it?
03:18Yep.
03:21Ah!
03:24Yachting.
03:33You must put that over there.
03:36You want to throw it on.
03:37Say 9-16ths, Jim.
03:42I don't know.
03:43You think we were going to want a spacer on this?
03:45Is there a spacer on it?
03:46There was.
03:47On what?
03:48It came off of this.
03:49Yeah, leave it on there.
04:00So we're really fortunate to have a painter right next to our shop.
04:05He works for Bert and does most of his paint, but he's done quite a bit of paint for us.
04:11Yeah, you mentioned one scallop.
04:13So, I mean, there's three.
04:16There's two right here, right?
04:17Yeah, I think we've got three right here.
04:19Three or two?
04:20The yellow is going to be blue.
04:23Right here.
04:24This would be white.
04:27You're confused.
04:28Yeah.
04:29Whatever's open will be the white.
04:32This is all going to be white.
04:34Correct.
04:35Within.
04:36Within that area will be white.
04:40So, this is all going to be white?
04:42Correct.
04:43Okay.
04:44So, I can bring the scallops to the side here.
04:48Maybe do two more if you want full scallops.
04:50I'll have a nice blue.
04:52It is a nice blue.
04:53Yeah, a very nice blue.
04:54You want me to put a pearl over that, too?
04:55Just a real light pearl.
04:57It'll stay this color, but out in the sun, I'll have a nice sparkle to it.
05:00Yeah, I'll do that.
05:01And the color, I think the color's great.
05:03You know, I wanted a powder blue.
05:05For Joan, I think it'll look really nice.
05:08It's a surprise bike.
05:09It's the one that she's been saying, well, where's my bike?
05:14When's my custom bike going to be done?
05:16So, it's going to be done.
05:17I picked the colors.
05:18I think she'll love them.
05:20And I think the bike's going to look great.
05:21Where's the sprocket?
05:22Oh, God bless whoever's getting this bike.
05:24And Joan still does not know that that's her bike.
05:29Bring her.
05:30Hey, what's up?
05:31Hey, look what I found.
05:34Wow.
05:36You didn't miss out.
05:37What's going on?
05:38So, Stacey is a friend of Paul and Joan's and myself.
05:41We've known her for years.
05:41I met her at Gulch Gym in Newburgh 20, 30 years ago.
05:44And is always around and doing stuff with us and in our family groupings and friendship groupings.
05:49So, it's going to be fun to have her here working on the bike.
05:52Don't you be excited, Jim?
05:53One time ever, ever in your life.
05:55How bad about, Paul?
05:56What time is supposed to be?
05:56Let me just tell you what happened.
05:58Don't tell me nothing.
05:58No, I'm...
05:59Don't tell me nothing.
06:00We went to lunch.
06:00Who was the driver got lost?
06:01It's 12.32.
06:02Where'd he go?
06:02She was here at 11.30 out in her car.
06:05It's 11.30.
06:05She's got to go further than you do.
06:07Yeah.
06:08And she still didn't have time to do her hair.
06:09I don't want to do it.
06:11She didn't do hair in makeup.
06:12You're going to get your hair dirt.
06:13You're going to get your hands dirty.
06:14Do you want some hair?
06:15How are you?
06:15Why am I getting my hair?
06:16Why am I getting my hands dirty?
06:18We just stopped to visit you.
06:20Hi, honey.
06:21Hi, honey.
06:23You only kissed me on the lips.
06:24No.
06:26You're furry mustaches and needs a haircut for about three months.
06:30I used to have this later.
06:32It used to trim my mustache.
06:34She used to do a good job.
06:35No, I need the ratchet.
06:36You need the ratchet, Jim.
06:37Over there.
06:38They gave it to you.
06:39This is the wrong ratchet.
06:41Is this going to become a bike?
06:43And that's the wrong one?
06:44This is a bike for a customer.
06:47This is the last bike we got to do.
06:49We had, we, we're, this is like the sixth bike that we're doing in a row.
06:52Oh, poor you.
06:53So tough being here.
06:54In a row.
06:56Oh, cool.
06:57You got that?
06:58Okay, Jim, hold on.
06:59Tight.
07:02Thank God.
07:03You need a rent?
07:04You need my help?
07:05Can we get the drill?
07:06What do you want me to do?
07:07Tell me.
07:07Don't worry.
07:08There's plenty to do.
07:09So I'm going to tell you, I'm going to tell you, and don't open your mouth, okay?
07:13I'm going to tell you how I met this lady here, Stacey.
07:17So Stacey is just really a true close friend.
07:21She does the same thing I do.
07:22She does some time still up in New York and a couple of weeks down here.
07:26It takes a little while to get to know Stacey.
07:29She's brutally honest, which is hilarious.
07:32But she's been close with Paul literally since they're like 18.
07:36So when I got divorced with my first wife, I started going to Gold's Gym.
07:43She was 16.
07:44I just don't interrupt me, okay?
07:47She thinks she was 16, right?
07:49I don't know how old I was.
07:51I was younger.
07:5250.
07:54Yeah, probably was.
07:55No, we're not that far.
07:58And she had a boyfriend.
08:00She had a boyfriend.
08:01And, um, yeah.
08:05Which boyfriend was this boyfriend?
08:06I was 19.
08:07Oh, you get emotional?
08:08You were 19, yeah.
08:08I was 19.
08:10Yeah.
08:10Yeah, that was the, how I'm shutting up.
08:12And now she had a boyfriend that was my best friend.
08:14Ever.
08:15I miss her.
08:20A couple of years ago, Stacey had, uh, to go out of town and Jimmy was fighting kidney
08:30disease.
08:32So I stopped by.
08:33He was looking for some supplements that we all take, um, in the morning.
08:37And I said, hey, Jim, we have to, uh, pick a time for dinner.
08:42And he said, let's do 6.30 and I can't wait for you to meet the, uh, dog sitter.
08:45I've been telling you all about her.
08:46She wants to volunteer at the shelter.
08:48And Jimmy was probably the toughest guy I knew.
08:51Like, the truest friend I think Paul's had.
08:55And I went to the office and, uh, I just said, okay, we'll do 6.30 at the following restaurant.
09:01Pulled away.
09:02And Stacey called me and she said, Jimmy fell off the deck.
09:08And I was like, what do you mean?
09:09And I said, I'm on my way and knowing Jimmy was a pretty proud guy.
09:12He was really a big dude.
09:13I thought, like, he fell.
09:15So I didn't want to call an ambulance or anything because he'd be mad.
09:19Like, he'd be really mad.
09:21Unfortunately, Jimmy had gotten a call and he got a call from the hospital and whatever
09:26they told him, uh, he walked out on the deck and took his life.
09:31So I had to make that call to Stacey.
09:33So as funny and crazy and loving, um, as Stacey is, uh, we go deep.
09:42The amazing thing about Stacey is that they were, like, together since they were, like,
09:4818 or 19.
09:49She's resilient.
09:51She never holds back, even when you want her to.
09:55So she's really hilarious in a lot of ways.
09:57But our relationship is deep.
09:59You know, we share tough times.
10:03Well, she can handle Paul better than anybody I know.
10:07Um, when Paul's being Paul, Stacey puts Paul on her in his place like nobody I've ever seen.
10:15And, uh, their relationship has a truly special bond because of Jimmy.
10:19And I think just because they go back since she was 18 years old, she's a gym rat just like
10:23him.
10:24And, uh, they spent a lot of time together.
10:26So I think she's fun.
10:29I think we should have more of her on the show.
10:32Anyhow, okay.
10:33So, um, I don't know.
10:36I was going there for a while.
10:37She had a boyfriend and she wanted to marry me.
10:42Change that subject real quick.
10:43She wanted to marry me for a long time.
10:48I followed you around the gym.
10:49I drove you nuts for probably 20 years.
10:52I don't even know how I'm not married to you yet.
10:54Or my third ex-wife.
10:56I felt that you were too old.
10:57She was too old for me.
10:59Yeah, too old.
10:59Yes, she was too old for me.
11:01That's why I'm helping him change his diaper now.
11:04Yeah, go ahead.
11:06All right, what are we doing?
11:07What are we doing?
11:08Since you got them to help you out, I'm going to go check on paint.
11:10Help us?
11:11What?
11:11Wait, what?
11:12So these two can work on it?
11:13Yeah, okay.
11:14This will be interesting.
11:15What am I working on?
11:17You yell at me once and I'm punching you in the face.
11:19And I don't know where that is.
11:21That's my line.
11:21I'm just telling...
11:22Okay.
11:24Look, he doesn't like...
11:25Oh, he's got to bend over now.
11:26This should be interesting.
11:27Watch it.
11:28All right, good job.
11:30Very impressive.
11:33Oh, God, he misses you, Stace.
11:34That's why he doesn't return your calls.
11:36Paul's been a part of my life.
11:37I mean, it's my world.
11:39He's in it.
11:39But at the same instance, I deal with him still because he doesn't go away.
11:46No matter how many years later it is, he doesn't go away.
11:49Before fame, during fame, after fame, maybe fame again.
11:55That's just Paul.
11:56It has to fit in here.
11:57Paul, I have a client at four.
11:58Here you go.
11:59This guy, it was in there.
12:00Here, you could start typing.
12:01By the way, Stace, he said it's not in there.
12:03It was in there.
12:03It was the next one over.
12:04This is just a test.
12:05I'm good at this, so don't mess with me.
12:07Watch out.
12:08I'm going to get him started.
12:11Don't you have, like, a voodoo?
12:12Nobody would ever know you were a hairdresser.
12:14I know.
12:14Nobody would ever know.
12:15Not a hairdresser.
12:16Not taking new clients.
12:19Trying to.
12:20Oh, there's another side.
12:23Loctite.
12:24Loctite.
12:25Wait a minute, wait a minute.
12:26You've got to put the sprocket on first.
12:28No, I did put the sprocket.
12:29You told me to put it in.
12:31Where's the sprocket?
12:32Oh, God bless whoever's getting this bike.
12:33And Joan still does not know that that's her bike.
12:37Who did that?
12:37You?
12:38No, next to her.
12:39Who did it?
12:40Great color, right?
12:41Beautiful color.
12:42Baby blue.
12:43I don't like blue.
12:44So I'm not sure if she's going to like it or not going to like it, but the bike's going
12:49to be cool.
12:49I do.
12:50You don't like blue?
12:51That's so nasty of you.
12:53It's beautiful.
12:54I think it's not for you anyhow, so who cares?
12:56No, it's pretty.
12:57My wife, she doesn't need to be led around that somebody's just as crazy or crazier than
13:03she is.
13:04Ow!
13:05Not that.
13:06Slide this.
13:07This has got to go inside here.
13:08It's all one piece, dude.
13:10Okay, so I've got to move the tire.
13:12God, it's definitely crooked.
13:13I mean, if that's the situation.
13:15You see this axle here, Joan?
13:17Yeah.
13:17You've got to line that up and I'll push it through.
13:19Okay.
13:20I've got to make sure we do it right because the customer, all they deserve is the best.
13:23What a wrench is this.
13:25Let's let you change tires.
13:27I've never changed a tire.
13:28Do I look like I changed tires?
13:30Did you?
13:31She's totally off the hook.
13:33She's a great person.
13:34She's the best-hearted person.
13:35She loves animals, but she's nuts.
13:38But I think that's why we get along so good, so.
13:42Okay.
13:43I love you.
13:44No, you don't.
13:45No, you don't.
13:45Say it louder.
13:46Bye, Joan.
13:47You can say goodbye to me.
13:49She don't like you, Paul.
13:50And I built my first bike.
13:52Pretty good, right?
13:53I mean, it was crooked, but it's not my fault.
13:56His fault.
13:57And we've got to undo everything we did.
13:59Well, Joanie's been one of my best friends for, I don't know how long they're together now.
14:03I didn't do her hair today, so if anyone has any critique on it, it wasn't my work, just so
14:07you know.
14:07Yeah, it was good to see her, and it was good to see her leave.
14:11We were way off.
14:12I guess we probably should have started with the budget before we sat down.
14:16Yeah.
14:18Yeah, so yesterday I had Joan and Stacey here, which was a complete interruption.
14:25You know, Al's here today, and I got Drew here.
14:28We're going to kind of give it the old overhaul.
14:30We switched out the wheels and put new wheels on there and switched out the roadies and stuff like that.
14:35But we're going to have to take that back wheel over there, off of there, and change the system.
14:41Because the one that came with that, like a real junk system.
14:46So that's got to be changed.
14:47We can't center out the wheel with that the way it is.
14:50And so that'll be the first thing that we'll work on, is getting that wheel centered up and get that
14:54front end on.
14:55Al will be, he's already looking at the wiring, so he's already having a fit.
15:01They're like, what's this?
15:03So we'll tighten everything up today.
15:07If you guys want to put the front end on, right?
15:11Put the front end on?
15:11You can, or you've got to clean that wiring up or whatever you want to do.
15:15What does he want to do?
15:16Put the front end on.
15:18Yeah.
15:18But, all right, let's take this axe off and stuff.
15:21Ready, friend?
15:38You want to lock it down, or you want to wait until it's just a beer before you need that
15:41spacer?
15:43Let's lock it down in the case where you get more key.
16:07In my senior year, I got suspended I don't know how many times, smoking in the bathroom and everything.
16:14So they said, they said, you're not going to graduate.
16:17Yeah.
16:17We're not going to, yeah.
16:18So they asked my dad to come to, he comes to the school.
16:23And we went down into the office and the principal said, you know, I'm sorry to tell you that your
16:30son's not going to graduate this year.
16:32And my father looked at him for a second.
16:34He said, listen, he said, I don't give a **** if he stays here until he has a **** beer.
16:41He's graduating.
16:42I graduated.
16:43Yeah.
16:53Go ahead, Jim.
16:54Ow.
16:56Go ahead, Jim.
17:01So we were working, Paul and I were working on the rear end of Joan's bike.
17:04It had a different mounting system for the caliper in the back, which mounts directly to a bracket on the
17:09frame that's welded there.
17:11So when we switched the rims out and modified some of the sizing in the back, there were some issues
17:16with it.
17:17So we had to figure out what we were going to do and how we were going to remi it.
17:20I wanted to get that free run and that all the way over there and then we can look and
17:24see.
17:24It should work.
17:25You know what I mean?
17:26Yep.
17:27By the way, it's not going to work, Jim.
17:29It's a bad attitude.
17:30Well, it didn't work, did it?
17:31It did work.
17:32We got the new brake and it's going to work, so.
17:35You know it'll work.
17:37See, it's just like a wife.
17:38The first one didn't work.
17:39So you try it to listen.
17:40Yeah.
17:41That one didn't work.
17:42That one didn't work, so.
17:45Does that look about right?
17:46Yeah, that'll work.
17:47Paul and I finally got the tire centered and the caliper spacing set up, so we're going.
17:52So we're going to mount this bracket to lock everything in place.
17:56Drew's going to throw some tacks on it and we should be good to go.
18:11Oh, it'll only take a second to put the back tire in the front end nuts.
18:14Yeah.
18:16And we were able to figure that out, put it back together after taking it apart a couple times.
18:21It fit perfect.
18:22The rear fender went on.
18:23There was no issues there, which is very fortunate.
18:25So we're going to be moving forward and I think we'll be able to finish this on time.
18:29I think we had a pretty good day today.
18:31You know, little curves here this afternoon with the rear tire and the usual stuff, I guess.
18:39But we're at the point where we're starting to button it up.
18:42I think that tomorrow we'll probably have it up and running and get out on the road and take it
18:48for a test run.
18:49You know, it's been a male-dominated industry for quite some time.
18:53I love to see, you know, women showing their talents and it's our time.
18:58Between Casey with the artistry, Jen working on the Eagle, Fran and everything she does for the community, Joan coming
19:06in on it.
19:07It's been a lot of women and it's great to be able to tell their stories and share what they
19:10do with everybody else.
19:11I liked it before you finished it.
19:13So I took this idea from a Temptations album cover.
19:18Cover?
19:18It was from a live show.
19:20Temptations?
19:20Yeah.
19:21And then I incorporated Abbey Road and then there's six for your six kids.
19:29And then if you look up in the top, there's 15 bulbs, but only 13 are lit up for your
19:3513 pets.
19:36And then when you look in each, there's a couple little stars in there that are silver relief.
19:42Those are for your grandkids.
19:43There's seven of them.
19:44And then you have one big star right up at the front for Joan.
19:48For Jim?
19:49For Joan!
19:51I thought you said for Jim.
19:52I was going to say, give me the grinder.
19:55He's special, but not that kind of special, you know what I mean?
19:59Good job.
20:00Glad you like it.
20:01Thank you so much.
20:03Thanks for giving me the opportunity.
20:05I don't hug anyone either, so it'll never happen again.
20:11It was just a moment.
20:12It was our moment.
20:14I got a hug.
20:16Got to meet Paul and, you know, when he came in for lunch and stuff like that.
20:20And it just so happens that I apparently am the only one who can get his orders right when he
20:27first started coming in.
20:28So I became his kind of day-to-day bartender to make sure his food was always right.
20:33I've known her for quite some time and knew she was an amazing artist, so it was a no-brainer
20:37to bring her in on this.
20:38The design is insane.
20:39She's got the colors and the concept Paul had mentioned to her.
20:43She put her own twist on it.
20:44She put some numbers in there, which represent Paul and Joan and their families and their animals,
20:48which only people who know the story are going to recognize.
20:50Otherwise, they're just going to think it's a cool piece of the artwork.
20:53She knocked it out.
20:54It's really cool to, you know, go from watching him on TV to knowing him as a person.
20:59And, yeah, you can't really judge a book by what you see on TV because he's a big old teddy
21:05bear.
21:06So Paul called me and asked me to come to Florida to help pick out a ring for my mom.
21:11He had never gotten her a ring yet, but they've been married for a long time,
21:14so he really wanted to get her a ring, especially because he's building a bike for her, too,
21:18and he wants to surprise her with both at the same time.
21:20So he asked me to come down, take a look at the bike, make sure everything looks good,
21:24that she would like it, and help to pick out the ring that she would like.
21:28Do you have any idea what you're doing?
21:30Nope.
21:31Nothing? You have not a clue?
21:33Yeah, kind of.
21:33Do you know what size she wears?
21:36Five.
21:37Five and a half.
21:39Yep.
21:40That's a guy with a Colleen deal.
21:45Stepper, gold.
21:50Ready, Freddys?
21:51I don't know.
21:52You don't know?
21:53We'll look when we get in there.
21:55Relax.
21:55Hi.
21:56How are you?
21:58How are you, Gages?
21:59How can I get home?
22:00We are actually looking to buy a ring.
22:02Congratulations.
22:04If you guys want to go ahead on back to a love and bridal selection, I'll send someone to help
22:08you out in just a few minutes.
22:09Okay.
22:10Welcome to the Golden Diamonds stores.
22:11How are you?
22:12How are you?
22:13How are you?
22:13I'm Ola.
22:14Hi, I'm Sammy.
22:15Nice to meet you.
22:15Sammy, nice to meet you.
22:17Welcome.
22:18How are you, Dominic?
22:19Dominic, nice to meet you.
22:20You also.
22:21How are you?
22:22Nice to meet you.
22:23Listen, we don't really have a lot of time because my daughter's out on release programs.
22:26Well, I'm quick.
22:27I actually have less than 12 hours.
22:31How are you?
22:31Welcome.
22:32Come on in.
22:33Let's go.
22:34This is right here.
22:35Yeah, that looks nice.
22:36It's beautiful.
22:38So that's what she wants, cushion.
22:39Oh, she wants cushion?
22:40That's what she wants, cushion.
22:41What's the square in the cushion?
22:43Square has like pointy edges and cushion has.
22:45So let me, yeah.
22:46Look, look at the edges.
22:47I mean, I'm a guy, so, you know?
22:50I mean.
22:50If I were to, I believe that she wants cushion.
22:53If what?
22:54I think she wants cushion.
22:55You don't think that's too boozy?
22:57Boozy?
22:58No, it would be bougie is the word I think you're looking for.
23:01You see how it's surrounded with diamonds?
23:03That's a halo.
23:04So it's a halo around it.
23:06Halo?
23:07Mm-hmm.
23:08Like the angel halo?
23:10Yeah, there you go.
23:12Right?
23:13Isn't your mother an angel?
23:15So it's gonna.
23:16This one, right?
23:16Yeah.
23:18Because I think she'll.
23:19Yeah.
23:20I think she'll like this one better.
23:22I love it.
23:23I mean, she could wear that when she's feeding the pigs, right?
23:26Don't you think?
23:26Yeah, she'll be picking up cows.
23:27Do you want the wedding band?
23:29No, I don't need that.
23:31What do you need that for?
23:32Okay, do you know how this works?
23:34I'm just, I'm honestly asking.
23:35There's like an engagement ring when you were first supposed to give a ring that you didn't
23:39do.
23:40Now you're getting it.
23:41But you're already married, so she should already have two rings.
23:43A wedding band from the wedding and the engagement ring from the initial proposal.
23:48So, yeah, she should have the both.
23:51Okay.
23:53What's the deal?
23:54Congratulations.
23:55So, we went ring shopping today.
23:58We probably should have done this a little bit better.
24:00We probably should have started with a budget when we walked in.
24:02That room's gotta be boo-koo bucks.
24:05I'm gonna take a guess.
24:07Sorry, I was just gonna see about the price range before we go back over there on camera.
24:12Do you know about how much?
24:13Yeah, but I'm getting, I'm getting a price from, this is $220,000.
24:18$220,000?
24:19Yeah.
24:20We're gonna have to, we're gonna have to talk about this.
24:22It's $230,000.
24:23We were way off.
24:24I guess we probably should have started with the budget before we set that.
24:29Yeah.
24:29So, we ended up going from a five or six carat diamond down to just under a three carat diamond
24:35and got a really nice setting.
24:36They gave us a great price.
24:37It ended up working out really well.
24:39That is nice.
24:40Mm-hmm.
24:41Yeah, that's beautiful.
24:42And it's less gaudy, is what you, or what'd you call it?
24:46Bougie.
24:47Less boozy.
24:47Boozy.
24:48This would be boozy.
24:49That is, that's boozy.
24:51That's boozy.
24:51This is boozy, that is boozy.
24:53Done?
24:54Done deal.
24:55All right, congratulations.
24:56Credit card, please.
24:57I need your card.
25:00Pardon?
25:00No, no, no.
25:00I have the numbers.
25:01Can you input the numbers?
25:02What are the credit cards?
25:02I have the credit card, not the debit card.
25:04I wonder why bank accounts have been dropping down.
25:08So, it's, uh, so it's over.
25:11I, I, uh, I, I was a little anxious about this, uh, for quite some time now.
25:16So, these guys helped me out.
25:18My, uh, stepdaughter here, uh, was a big help.
25:21Thank God.
25:22She's a big help.
25:23She helps me spend my money.
25:26That was a good clue.
25:27But I, I thought, she'll be happy, you know what I mean?
25:29Yeah, it's gorgeous.
25:30She doesn't really, she doesn't really, she's not like a boozy.
25:33Boozy.
25:34A boozy.
25:35She's a boozer.
25:35No, she's a boozer.
25:36She's just not boozy.
25:37She's a boozer.
25:38Don't get that twisted.
25:39Yeah, very big difference there.
25:42She's so good.
25:43That's good, yeah.
25:44All right, let's do it.
25:46All right.
25:47All right, let's get back over to the show.
25:48Hey.
25:49Everything is new.
25:51We didn't use one piece or the other one.
25:53Where's Christian at?
25:53Yeah.
25:56So I just think we had a lot in common.
25:59Al doesn't like many people.
26:00Pretty much nobody.
26:01Probably nobody.
26:02So he likes me.
26:04I don't really care if he likes anybody else.
26:07He likes dogs.
26:09I like dogs.
26:10That clutch moving at all?
26:12Clutch?
26:12No.
26:14Do I gotta go in or out?
26:15Out.
26:15Gotta go out.
26:16Out.
26:18Problems with the primary and the clutch not working right.
26:22Couldn't get the clutch adjusted.
26:23It was too heavy.
26:25Alan is like a...
26:26He's just ternasish.
26:28He just does not stop at anything, you know?
26:31And he couldn't figure it out neither.
26:34Let me see if I have another nut and just zip it off.
26:36I don't know.
26:37Well, I guess.
26:38I don't know.
26:38You have another basket?
26:40Then we gotta take the whole clutch part again, right?
26:43Well, yeah.
26:44And the belt.
26:47Ended up taking it all off, throwing it away,
26:50and putting a whole different setup from BDL on it.
26:53We're trying to get it all buttoned up here.
26:55We ran into a problem with the belt drive
26:57and the clutch not adjusting right.
27:01So we ended up trashing that,
27:02and we got a BDL clutch that we're putting in now.
27:07And we'll put that on after lunch,
27:09and hopefully problems we had will go away.
27:12Well, you're probably already in already.
27:14You're already in.
27:16Yeah, I know, but it was the same thing with the other one.
27:19I mean, we can't...
27:19I can hardly...
27:20I'm definitely not hitting the clutch now.
27:23I'm not hitting the other side.
27:24I don't believe so.
27:27Everything's new.
27:28Even the nut?
27:30Everything.
27:30That holds it?
27:31Everything is new.
27:32We didn't use one piece of the other one.
27:35Where's Christian at?
27:37Yeah.
27:39They keep coming in there.
27:40This is his specialty.
27:44You want me to check with him or leave him alone?
27:46So Paul called me up.
27:47He said he had a problem.
27:48He needed me to get there right away.
27:52Perfect timing.
27:53What are you guys doing?
27:54What's up?
27:54How are you, Jim?
27:54Good, you?
27:55Good to see you.
27:56Hey, Paul.
27:57Hey, Al.
27:59We're, uh...
27:59All right.
28:00We're...
28:01We're...
28:01We're...
28:02Having a NASCAR drill on clutch.
28:06NASCAR what?
28:06On and off, on and off, on and off.
28:07Like tire changes.
28:08Clutch.
28:08Oh.
28:10We put a brand new belt drive on there.
28:12It's still not working.
28:13Wait, this is...
28:14Clutch.
28:14This is Joan's bike, right?
28:15Yeah.
28:16What's wrong with it?
28:17We can't...
28:18We just can't get the...
28:20The...
28:20The adjustments.
28:22It was hanging up.
28:23At the lever, you mean?
28:25It was hanging up tight.
28:26Tight.
28:27So we changed the whole belt drive.
28:31Because if he didn't come in to help Al and us,
28:34we'd still be working on the bike.
28:37Good?
28:38Yeah.
28:38All right.
28:39Let me see.
28:43Yeah.
28:43I told you.
28:44I said earlier...
28:45What did I say earlier?
28:46Change that umbrella?
28:48Did I tell you that?
28:51Right after you said you loved me,
28:52you said to change the umbrella.
28:54We had it happen before.
28:56We did.
28:57We had...
28:58And we spent hours.
29:02Hey, Al, you great.
29:03Give me a longer screwdriver.
29:05We got a little, yeah.
29:07I tried.
29:08I tried.
29:18So right now, we're just basically cleaning the bike up a little bit.
29:21And I think that pretty much we're ready to drop it down and see if some starts.
29:43And we got it all squared away and rode pretty good.
29:58It's been cool, man.
30:00And this, you know, these past six bikes, it's been a trip.
30:02We've had a lot of laps.
30:04You know, some fun times.
30:05It's great to see Paul again.
30:07I'm glad he reached out and asked me to be a part of this.
30:10You know, it's a big thing, man.
30:11It's something to be proud of.
30:13Yeah, so tomorrow morning, I'm going to go pick up the diamond, check it out, make sure
30:16everything's good.
30:17And then we're going to head up to the house and surprise her.
30:19She thinks everyone's coming over for her birthday.
30:20But little does she know, a bike and a new ring are coming.
30:24So I'm really excited to see what she thinks about both.
30:26The other day, I was in the shop and they showed me something.
30:31They said, what are you thinking?
30:32I said, I don't like blue.
30:53Hold it here and opens this phone.
30:55I would open it the other way.
30:56I know.
30:58And it's already 310 by 345.
31:01Start to get the bikes.
31:02What happens around four?
31:03Good job.
31:04All right, let's see you.
31:05I'll take care of her.
31:06Sometimes you might say it's a love-hate relationship.
31:11But, you know, the bottom line is she's always been there for me.
31:16You know, about two weeks ago, Paul said, I have to talk to you.
31:19Just know, like, as a wife, right, when your husband says I have to talk to you, it's usually
31:23not good.
31:24And he said, OK, so here's the deal.
31:26There's like 120 people coming and I don't know what I'm supposed to do or what we're
31:31supposed to do.
31:32And I said, where are they coming?
31:33Assuming that we were going to do it at OCC.
31:36And he said, no, they wanted to do it at the house.
31:38I said, Paul, we live on a farm.
31:40We don't have parking.
31:41Where would you put 120 people at a small farmhouse, you know?
31:46So actually it was pretty funny because he's like, well, I just know that you always figure
31:50stuff out.
31:51So this whole thing was probably the biggest stress bomb dropped on me.
31:56Did anybody see the liquor guy?
31:58Seriously, the liquor guy.
32:00Oh, everybody's in panic over here, right?
32:02Yeah.
32:03Everybody's starting to shake.
32:05He said he's going to be here.
32:07It's also, in 90 days, we've had three days of rain.
32:12It's a dirt fest, so you're not getting out of here with clean feet.
32:15That's all I can tell you.
32:16I'll be right back.
32:17All right.
32:18I'm going to bring the bike back.
32:20Oh, you're going to go get him?
32:21Yeah.
32:22Get him in?
32:23No, no, we're good.
32:24They got the...
32:27Watch that guy over there.
32:28Hey, keep an eye on that guy.
32:30I got him.
32:30You got him?
32:31I got him.
32:32I think he's got each other.
32:34I think he's mutual.
32:38Watch out.
32:38I don't want everybody.
32:43There were so many people from various...
32:46parts of my life.
32:47You know, there were people here, friends of mine, from when I was 14 and 15.
32:51It was definitely moving, I think, as you move on in life, 62 years old.
32:56I think that you really appreciate relationships and good people.
33:00And to look around today, my friends from down here, it was an awesome feeling to just see
33:05all these people from all walks of life here, you know, to celebrate with us.
33:10I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who came to celebrate her birthday.
33:14She really appreciates it.
33:16I know a lot of people traveled long and far to be here, and we actually have something
33:19that we wanted to share.
33:20Paul has actually has a surprise for her.
33:23So, Joan, Mom, I'll let her do the thanking herself as well.
33:31Thank you, guys.
33:32This is amazing.
33:33I really can't...
33:35I look around, and I see all these people from different walks of my Congress in the back.
33:42So, actually, we all know each other since we are 14 years old back there.
33:48We've made some great new friends down here as well.
33:51We have some of our friends that came in from back home in New York, over here, upstate New York.
33:57So, when I look around, I see all the facets of our life and all of the people that have
34:02come out today.
34:03And I can't thank you enough because it's been awesome, and we're having a great time, and I hope you're
34:07having a great time, too.
34:10And don't worry, more liquors on the way.
34:12But in the meantime, since we're holding out on that, you can take a step this way.
34:16There's a surprise for you.
34:44There's a surprise for you.
34:47It's pretty cool.
34:47The other day, I was in the shop, and they showed me something.
34:52They said, what do you think?
34:52And I said, I don't like blue.
34:57Sorry, it looks a lot better now that it's on the bike, just for the record.
35:03It does look good, actually.
35:04Really good.
35:05She keeps asking, where are my choppers all the time?
35:08Where's my chopper?
35:09And we've been, you know, doing the show, and we've been, like, really busy.
35:12I really like the bike.
35:13I think that my mom's going to like it.
35:15I love the color.
35:15I love the gas tank.
35:16I love everything about it.
35:18I like that it's low to the ground.
35:19It's an easy ride.
35:20Just kind of waiting for when he's going to build me one just like it.
35:23I just figured this would be a good birthday present.
35:26Yeah.
35:30By the way, I like that color blue.
35:34I really screwed up on that one last week.
35:36So, I'm not done yet here.
35:41So, we spent a lot of time riding bikes together every day.
35:45And, so, I can't help it.
35:52I just think it's funny.
35:54But, so, we used to ride past the justice of the peace every day, you know?
36:01And every once in a while, we would, we would, like, look, we would, like, look over there.
36:06And we'd both say, no, no, that's not happening, man.
36:09Never again.
36:10Never again.
36:10And, so, one day.
36:14They had a cell.
36:16They had a.
36:16Remember they had a cell?
36:17Yeah.
36:17It was a cell.
36:18On marriage license.
36:20I was joking about it.
36:20So, anyhow, we said, I'm going to say she said, let's go.
36:25But she's going to tell you that I said, let's go.
36:28So, but anyhow, so, yeah.
36:30So, we go in there.
36:31We fill out the papers real quick.
36:33Sign her name.
36:34Get up there.
36:35I do.
36:36You do.
36:37And, and there was, like, a plastic bouquet of flowers in the vase.
36:42And I gave her that.
36:45And, we, we, we went to lunch.
36:47And that was, like, yeah.
36:49We never really had a wedding or anything like that, you know?
36:53So, I figured.
36:55We don't still believe we're going to lie.
36:56I get you so.

37:56Woo!
37:56I just want to give him a couple points.
37:58A motorcycle and a ring.
37:59Holy cow.
38:02It must be special.
38:03I will.
38:04Yeah, that's for sure.
38:06Well, thank you again for all of you of you
38:08being here to be a part of this.
38:10Figured that, uh, my daughter Sam probably had a hand in this,
38:14but I was like, there's no way that he did this by himself.
38:17for Paul getting this ring honestly was a surprise to me because he's not really romantic I pick out
38:23the Christmas gifts the birthday gifts forget Valentine's Day he doesn't even remember when
38:27it is so this to me when he asked me to come and do it I was like all right
38:30that's really nice for
38:30my mom because he doesn't do a lot of nice things like that like he's you give her the shirt
38:34off his
38:34back but he definitely doesn't think proactively on gifts or things like holidays so it was really
38:39nice thanks for coming and let's go have a good time I'm on a farm so there so maybe what
38:47they'll
38:48do is me feeding lines and then my daughter's like oh my god I told you to get a manicure
38:51oh my god
38:52your feet are filthy I'm like well I have been out on a farm all day like they're not gonna
38:56be clean
39:05very pretty it was so funny because you go to all these unveils reveals
39:09and like you can't wait to see like what the people's response are you know I think it's a
39:14gift that Paul has always had I think uh I think she liked it I think she liked the ring
39:19you know
39:20happy days right big big rock no it was nice Paul did a good job the bike is beautiful the
39:28ring came
39:29out great Paul didn't you know didn't lose it which was amazing also and uh on all a great day
39:33with some
39:34great friends and family I mean it was a great day weather's perfect you know everyone here the love
39:39was in the air and good vibes he's breaking his chops I said to him you know what just thought
39:44on me you never came and asked me for my daughter's hand in marriage yeah well I think the main
39:52thing
39:52she was surprised that's for sure um yeah so I think it was good I think it was good I'm
39:58not like
39:59I don't know I'm not really good at that kind of stuff you know so um so I did pretty
40:05good for
40:06not being so good at it very nice celebration and we were happy to be a part of it very
40:11happy
40:12and I wish you all the best to Paul and Joan thank you for letting me be a part of
40:18such an amazing
40:19project and uh we're looking forward to season two baby we're having a great time Paul's great
40:25family's fantastic it's a beautiful day and uh thank you for the invite I feel very special
40:30God bless you guys happy birthday Johnny love you
40:38Paul do you have crazy friends or what oh my god did you see how close that would
40:44surreal surreal what a season if you'd told me 20 years ago that we would have been doing this
40:49I don't know I guess I probably would have believed it because we do crazy stuff
40:55so doing six bikes in such a short period of time and then being filmed all day while you're doing
41:00it it's a little frustrating a little hectic uh but it's a challenge we all took on when we started
41:05this the great thing about doing it this time is Paul owns 100 of the show the editing the production
41:10the stories come from the customer and Paul so it's OCC his way and our way because it's a team
41:16effort
41:17when you see the bike finished and the unveil it's worth it
41:20you
