Putting Lambo Doors on Mullet goes BAD!

Hey everyone and welcome back to CJRaceCars YouTube channel and as you can tell we have mullet behind us and it came here for some modifications on headers and other stuff which we're going to show you in a different video. But when we knew we had mullet coming we came up with what I think is the best plan we've ever had since we started our YouTube channel and it fell apart within just a few minutes. We're going to talk about that here shortly. Don't forget go to CJRaceCars.com. Our current $100,000 dream build is now $105,000 budget. We raised it and it ends in only a little over two weeks. So every five dollars gets you one entry to a $105,000 dream build plus a 20-foot tilt deck trailer or a C7 Z06 Corvette $10,000 cash or $75,000 cash plus every order over $25 before tax and shipping getting a free CJRC lanyard from now until Sunday at 11 59 p.m. Now let's rewind a couple weeks and talk about what happened with mullet. Hello. Hey I got you on video. I got a serious question for you. Yeah on video is that okay? All right so so we uh we have to do some stuff on mullet the end of this week beginning of next week turbo stuff right? What do you think if there's a possibility non-invasively we could engineer some hinges that may to have lambo doors? Oh I mean it needs them. I'll pay for it. I figured you'd think that was a good idea. I mean he's just been helping too many people out not to help him back you know. He needs to be blessed. Yeah he needs to be blessed. At this point everyone's being ungrateful and nobody's returning any of the favors. Yeah he really has done a lot for everybody around him and and just nobody's giving back so I think it's a good idea if we can do it. That lambo door is a must. I'll make sure it passes tech. Oh man I'm nervous but I think it's a good idea. I think it has to happen. What are you saying? If you don't do it I'm gonna be super upset. All right if we can manage to engineer this in time we're gonna do it. And when you make it you should make a couple sets of hinges so we can sell them. People will like this. Oh could you imagine? I would take a step from a Supra. Hey that's not a bad idea. It All right we're gonna work on it. All right see ya. I knew he'd be game. Listen as soon as I thought about it I'm like we got to do it and the closer we're getting to actually doing it so that's a little nerve-wracking. Like we said it's got a really nice paint job. We're gonna talk to Craig next and see what Craig thinks because he's gonna have to maybe repaint it if anything were to happen to it. Right. We want to make sure we can take care of that. Yeah. All right so obviously Mittner's on board and the goal is to make this thing work flawlessly and have no issues. But I want to make sure if it does have an issue we can get Craig on board to get this thing teamed back up real quick. Carburetor Craig let's put a nice paint job on it. Yeah. I don't want to upset Carburetor Craig. We can't mess that up. No. Yes sir? Craig how are you doing? How you doing buddy? I got a question and it's top secret for now. I'll kill any secrets. All right you're on video and this is a top secret question. We have to work on mullet this week and next week for Garrett. I heard that. So I'm debating doing something for him but I wanted to touch base with you. If at all the paint got scratched which it shouldn't. 99% sure it shouldn't. But if it did how bad would that be? Because that's the whole reason we picked that color versus a more of a metallic or a pearl type color. Because if you know god forbid anything happens that he crashes in the damn thing it's got to be easy to fix you know. Okay so if we were to just say put Lamborghini doors on there and they touch the front end it would be okay if it did scratch it a tiny bit we had to fix it? I mean obviously I'll pay for it but. Yeah yeah yeah yeah. Okay. If uh yeah if you scratch the front fenders I mean obviously we're probably going to paint a whole fender you know we're not just going to paint where the scratch is is the only unfortunate part. That okay as long as you're okay with it I don't want to put you in a bind if we got to fix it. No no no. Okay. Okay all right we're going to work on this plan we got to engineer some hinges that'll make it work but I think we can do it. A little bit of payback. Yeah he well he's been helping everybody so much I think it's time someone gives a little back to him you know. I agree he's a great guy and he deserves it for sure. All right Craig I just want to touch base let me make sure we're okay. All right thank you sir. All right bye. All right all right that's it we have to do it now. Yeah we have to. It doesn't even matter if it's right now it's just got to work it's just got to open up. Right. Yeah some strings attached to it so you can now I think we can make something nice we'll get Ryan on it next week. Yeah. Get him to design some. So you might need to call him and tell him to come back. He might have to come back. Yeah. He might have to look extra this week. It'll be worth it though. Yeah. Right. Yeah for sure. I think so. Yeah. Okay all right we're doing it. All right. All right well we got mold in the shop. Zach dropped it off last week and it is now Monday and we're looking at this it's going to be a little difficult to make this work right. Normally on a car you have all kinds of room and here we just don't have a ton of room and we want to make these hinges bolt to the door that we have right like these holes here we need to utilize those and we need to utilize these pins we're not just like I know you watch Cleet and Squirrel and they just kind of start hacking stuff and grinding stuff and welding stuff and well we're trying not to do any of that kind of stuff so we need to make a bracket that'll slide on these pins and that will bolt to this door so it's got you know a bracket on this side a bracket on that side and somehow this all works the next problem we have on a normal car you have a body line here which we do have a body line which gaps a door and a fender but we have this receiver lip that basically the front end sits against so you can't just like go straight up with this door because then you're going to crash and all this kind of stuff so somehow we probably need a pivot point to be pretty high which we'll have to put in a cad and make sure it all works before we do anything but we need the door to come like like open up a little bit so it clears the window and then it kind of needs to do like this motion we don't want to crash into the fender and have an issue there so we got our work cut out for us this isn't going to be easy we could probably make something that wasn't nice and didn't function great and uh you know maybe messed up the car pretty easily but to make something that's going to work right it's going to be a little tougher but i think we can figure it out ryan's been over here designing some hinges for mullet all day pretty much and the difficult part we have is that we don't want to just bolt on some hinges that we can find from wherever some universal hinges we don't want to mess up the car this expensive race car and we want we want it to kind of work with the hinges we have and not destroy the car so ryan designed a hinge that basically still slides on the pins that we have so these would not only be lambo doors but removable lambo doors i think that's the first one ever probably swing them open lambo door if you want to take them off take them off look at this thing this is super cool that's how it would open this plate here just goes right on the pins that are already on the car has this tab off the back this is all 6061 aluminum and we put this pivot way up here because the door on the car has a piece behind the fender and it has to get up and out really quick so the higher we put this pivot the quicker it'll move the door up and out which is what we need right so i think this is going to work absolutely perfectly that then you can put it down swing it open take them off the pins if you want put on a stand just like it wasn't there and the best thing about this is these are where the holes are already in the doors there and down here three holes there three holes there so worst case take these six bolts off put the other hinges back on it's like nothing ever happened we're not trying to destroy mullet we're not trying to hurt anybody's car these are expensive race cars they're nice race cars we take a lot of pride in them and the last thing we want to do is destroy this car with some janky hinges that we like welded on a powder-coated chassis this is very thought out this is something i've been not sleeping over for the last probably two weeks thinking about every single night so and this is what he came up with the good thing about this too is it's all laser cut so we can laser cut it all weld these pieces on the top here which you got them all located right so you can just locate those pieces on the top yeah i mean this it should go together pretty easy i think it's going to work good up here he left a gap between the two pieces so that we can just put like a delrin bushing between the two yeah yeah i think this is gonna work really good he's never gonna see this coming when we pull up with mullet swing the door open just a little bit and it stops and then we pick it up i think cletus is gonna love it i think he's gonna love it he's super happy again he's been he's been given all you know if he didn't like it he'd be very ungrateful he'd be very ungrateful and he works really hard and gives back a lot i mean if you saw the bill he gave you know he would have had to charge victor for all the stuff he did on his truck about a lot of money and just well nobody's giving back to him and we have an opportunity here to to get back to him after he's done so much for everybody including ourselves and i think this is gonna do it unfortunately this is where everything starts to go really bad in this video we have these hinges designed ryan's been working on them for a lot of hours i think they're gonna work absolutely awesome and i get a text from cletus and he didn't say much the text said hey do you think i can come pick up mullet tonight which as soon as he texted me that i knew something was off because we had just talked and he knew mullet wasn't going to be done the same day so for him to ask me to come pick it up tonight i knew something was off and i said he said i we have a magazine shoot i forgot and i said that's fine i said can you bring it back tomorrow so we can finish everything up and he says well how far off is taylor from being totally done with it and i said well he still probably needs a whole day we're trying to mount the dry sump tank and some other stuff we got to mount it to you know etc a few things explained to him there's still quite a bit of work left so if he could bring it back that'd be fine and then he says which i already knew something was off then he says well how much fab work is left if he holds off on the lambo doors immediately my heart drops i mean this project has been something i've talked to my wife about we just went on a little mini vacation in orlando not far at a hotel and all i talked about all weekend was putting lambo doors on his car and in my head at night for hours designing them in my head going over stuff with ryan how he can make this work nice and just to get that text from cletus and find out that he knows was was devastating so we had to figure out what happened and a long short of the story is when zach dropped off the car josh told zach and zach is very big on the maintenance stuff and keeping these cars nice and not too many games when it comes to the race cars so i think zach he just told cletus which i get that it's on josh josh should have never said anything to zach or to anybody he shouldn't have said anything but he did and zach told cletus which messed it up and i think it would have been so cool to see that car mullet at fl2k with the doors up after the burnout i think we had a hinge designed that would have worked really well but we'll never know we'll never know now so josh dropped the ball on that one i don't know what we're gonna do to josh i don't know if we're gonna i'm gonna make them work for free for a year we got we gotta do something josh can't just get away with messing up our whole plan because it it was an exciting plan and you guys would have loved it and i would like to see the reaction that cletus had and now we don't get it so let us know in the comments what do you think we should do to josh for messing up full on our whole plan that we had for weeks and and really just ruin it for everybody but that's going to do it for today's video make sure you go to cjracecars.com we raised the budget to 105 000 we added a 20 foot tilt deck trailer
