[Brandenberg Concerto No. 4 in G playing]

to 不定詞

Carl: [Narrative] Cars, we love 'em. They're sleek and stylish and just fun to look at.

最上級形容詞

European cars have a look all their own and one of the best European car shows

is held right here, in Shelby, North Carolina.

Well, I'm doing great. Well, you certainly got a lot of nice cars here.

Tell me -- tell me about your event. Tom: Okay, it's the Broad River European Classic.

It's sponsored by the Broad River European Motor Club,

which they're pretty common in this area. We wanted to be a European car club

to include cars other than British cars, German and Italian, etcetera.

Carl: Now, these are some amazing cars. I notice --

I notice a little bit of the difference here with the European cars

that are on display here and some of our American car shows,

Why are the cars -- why are the European cars smaller?

and they were designed like that, for road handling, primarily.

There's a few of the cars, European cars that are larger, Rolls-Royce, Bentley.

We have some of those here, but basically the sports cars are on the smaller scale.

Okay. Alright, what's the most valuable car here?

I know that might be a little subjective, but I'm sure there are monetary amounts

Probably the most valuable car in our show today is the 1929 Bugatti racecar.

It was built as a racecar, but was never raced and it's valued at about $3 million.

In 1929, this was a spare backup pre-Grand Prix racer.

That they used to race back in the old days. It was never raced.

Simply because, they didn't have a reason for it.

If they crashed a car,  they would just jump in another car and go racing again.

That's what this car -- purposely built. Now, this particular one takes two people to drive

Now racing, you have to keep up your oil pressure. Carl: Right.

This is your oil pressure. This is what the co-pilot does.  They were called pilots and co-pilots.

And the co-pilot would operate all of the fuel,

like keep the fuel pressure on. The co-pilot was also responsible for advancing

and retarding the timing to give you more speed going uphill or downhill,

or street lining. That gives you more speed.

But if you look down here, and see all the web work of chains,

and how all the chains, and brakes, and the valves, and everything,

are done in such a way, the co-pilot's job was to get more oil pressure or less oil pressure,

And that was his job. But one thing people don't realize,

is at the turn of the century there was over 90 car manufacturers in Europe

that were racing before Henry Ford ever decided to build a car.

Carl: [Narative] There's so many different types of cars on display,

each one with a distinctive engineering style and a fascinating story.

What is this here? That's a good looking car.

Tom: That is a 1946 MGTC, the sports car that really

brought sports cars to the United States, from Europe.

Of course, the first sports car built in this country was a 1954 Chevrolet corvette.

Carl: Alright, so that's got a lot of,  not only European history,

Probably that Rolls is one of my favorite cars.

Well, Tom, so Richard owns this car. You think he'll mind if we look inside?

Okay let's -- wow, look at that. So now, the year of this car --

Carl: So this is a 1934. Is this pretty much original?

Carl: So this is the original car as it would've been. Wow.

You also need to see the toolkit in the trunk that came with the Rolls-Royce.

It's amazing that in 1934, they went through the effort  to produce something like that.

Carl: They were really built to last, weren't they?

But this one seems to be in especially good condition.

Yea, it's a beautiful car. So this is a Roll's Royce?

A beautiful automobile and worth, I'm guessing probably $250,000 or there

Wow, that's great. I'd like to see more of these on the Carolina roads.

Carl: Now, tell me about this.  This is the Bentley?

Tom: The Bentley, uh-huh. This particular car has been restored.

Carl: I imagine there are a lot of restorations compared to completely original cars.
