on buying classic cars for himself.

But I like to buy them to make money for the shop.

So when a guy called me and told me he had a '33 Chevy,

me and Chum jumped at the chance to take a look.

Pretty cool car you got here.

Yeah, not bad.

1933 Chevy Eagle sedan.

I can picture the old man driving this thing,

holding up traffic on the freeway for 30 minutes.

[old-fashioned horn blows]

JIM: There's not too many '33 Chevy Eagle

sedans riding around Las Vegas.

I did my research, and it looks like these cars

in this kind of condition, they're doing

anywhere from 17 to 20 grand.

I'm hoping the guys see my way and they pay my price.

CHUMLEE: Who would be driving around something like this?

RICK: This was a middle class family car.

It was inexpensive, reliable transportation.

I think this was the most popular car in 1933.

The '30s was an amazing decade for cars.

That's when car companies really started focusing

on making them look cool.

But they weren't exactly safe.

We're talking metal dashboards, no seat

belts, and next to no brakes.

Do you mind if I look under the hood and kick the tires?

JIM: No, go right ahead.

They surfaced the head, worked the valves.

Fresh gasket on it.

And they were easy to work on.

Like, the fuel filter with the glass lid on there,

you can see if your fuel filter needed cleaning.

JIM: Right. Right.

Yeah.

RICK: Do you mind if I look inside?

No, check it out.

These suicide doors were kind of a cool touch.

RICK: So did you guys do the interior or anything?

JIM: Previous owner, yeah.

This car has really been from the ground up restored.

And part of that was this awesome vinyl

interior that looks great.

Awesome?

That's the first time I ever heard awesome vinyl.

[laughs]

Can I fire it up?

Yeah.

It runs like a clock.

[music playing]

[car starts]

That's what I'm talking about.

65 horsepower right there.

Actually, I'm impressed.

It fired right up.

Yeah.

Cars like this are sort of like artwork.

They can take a long time to sell.

But sometimes taking a risk is the only way to make a profit.

And I'm confident I can sell this thing for 20 grand.

All right. so how much you want for it?

I was hoping for somewhere between 17 to 20 grand.

OK.

You know, it looks like it would be worth a lot more.

But a lot of these were made.

Can I give you 12 grand for it?

God, I can't do 12.

I'd probably do 14 today.

CHUMLEE: Is it just me, or is this "Blues Brothers" guy

creeping you guys out?

RICK: [laughs]

CHUMLEE: I feel like he's watching me.

RICK: It's just you.

It's not creeping you out?

RICK: Not really.

So we'll settle at 13.5?

14.

13.5?

13.7.

All right, 13.650.

13.7--

650.

75.

No.

650.

All right.

All right, I just got to hide it from my dad now.

Uh-oh.

Well, no, we're not actually hiding it.

We're just not showing it to him.

We're not telling him about it.

RICK: I'll have somebody in an hour to pick it up.

Great. Thanks so much.

Come on, Chum.

JIM: If I didn't have plans to move out of Vegas,

I probably wouldn't have pulled the trigger at this price.

But you know, he gets a deal, and it

leaves him room to make money.
