Thanks @RobertMoseley for the fake Countach experience!
Do NOT sell it. It’ll be worth so much more in 10-15 years. You’ll be able to retire on it 💯
He'll make more money off the videos he makes from buying more cars after selling it lol.
that's if there will be any fossile fuels left to put in to drive
@@McTwistedTwistiesYou think collectors buy a countache to drive it? lol
@@McTwistedTwistiescars will be using fossil fuels for the next 100 years.
Rember the divorce..... he needs the money now....id imagine....but he made it this far with out our advice ,so i trust his dumb desions lol 😂
If you have to sell it you have to sell it, but don’t buy a fake one.
Yeah, that would be like selling a real Rolex and buying a fake one.
No fakes!
@@mikaxmsthere are a lot of people that have identical fake versions of their real Rolexes for wearing in sketchier places or situations where it’s likely the watch will get damaged
@@mxs4193me lol exactly this i used the £200 ones for it
My suggestion is to remove the original Countach seat (keep it safe in storage) and replace it with a lower seat so you fit better while driving.
I remember seeing a Countach for the first time. I was surprised at how small it is and how much better it looked in person than in photographs.
I member seeing expensive cars in person as well, couldn't care less since I have no desire to be able to afford one. But at the same time, why doesn't my brain care to care for more other than what it decided to care about ?
They are tiny. Agreed
yea. they looked so much bigger on our walls in our bedrooms lol
Don't do that. And with a replica you will just feel bad.
*Divorced guy with a clean Countach is a good look.* *Divorced guy with a replica Countach? Not so good.*
It would be good ROI if he can get around that half mill. As for a replica, it might be fun for him to thrash around for a bit and it would be a load off from insurance and maintenance.
Yeah, if you have a replica everyone just makes fun of you for having a kitcar fake Lamborghini.
@@RANSOMEARTthe people who make fun of you are people you don't want in your life anyway.
@@americansmark honestly.... I like the confidence in your style there. Touche.
The Fiero is a great car to use as a base for a kit car. The Ferrari 308 whole body replacement kits are hugely popular along with the Countach kits. I put a little twist on the kit car thing though: I put a Pontiac Fiero GT whole body kit on my Ferrari 308, no one can tell it's a kit car.
👉😎👉
Wait did you really I wanna see that that's just my kind of build XD
I would love to find an unaltered Pontiac Fiero Mera. Tons of people took off the Mera and pontiac badging to add Ferrari ones. Nearly impossible to find the factory one unaltered.
I pulled up the hardwood floors in my new house and there was some beautiful carpet underneath.
@@ducknorris233 LMFAO!
Heyyy so good so see you back Hoovie! I’ve grown used to 2 videos per week but you make us wait now. Absence does make the heart grow fonder! We appreciate you!
As a fiero owner, yes they are much easier on the anxiety. Also, just put the supercharged 3.8L in it and you'll have more power than it could possibly need. That kit's exterior does look really good though.
Someone did an amazing job on the exterior fit and finish. They even made the V-6 sound legit. But they completely dropped the ball on the interior! A good interior remodel would make that look the part.
I mean that would take legit money to make a one off interior for a Fiero...
@@audiophile6475 replicas tend to take either legit money or legit time. they're best as hobby things. that it is a replica just gives it a goal to go towards rather than making a custom car. though still, the benefit is that it can be anything you want it to be on mechanicals etc. as a hobby thing the time investment becomes more of a positive, as a learning, doing and timewasting hobby. approaching it as a thing to save money is a fools errand, more so if you pay someone a lot of money to do things.
I would build a Lancia Stratos (rally spec with less extreme wheels) and Alfa Romeo V6 (dino V6 are even harder to find).
@@davidelliott5843 there's a a company making a kit / selling that, the cars called Listerbell STR (tho you can use a toyota engine too but I dunno why you would do that, ok I kinda know why but the alfa v6 is an option). they don't list the price though, its all just by enquiry only edit: europe has lots of transverse bussos from 156's, 166's, gta's etc. not hard to find as such
Needs a better drive train & a gated shifter.
Would be a sad day it you had to sell the Countach especially as we know how much you love it! Some of the work that goes into these replicas is impressive!😂 Keep up the great work Tyler! Much love from the U.K 🇬🇧❤
I think because he says he doesnt drive it alot, it makes sense to sell it. Especially since Matt Farrah preaches the driving them alot is actually what keeps them running well and saves on the maintenance. So it sounds like it would be better off cashing in now. The only sad thing is the price point its at, probably will still not be driven alot by whoever was willing to pay.
I get it, but where is the fun when you are afraid of driving it.
It would be a horible buisness decision to sell it, the longer he kepts it the value keeps going up
@@IllegallyAcquiredKIA idk, I think they won't go too much hire because they are an icon of the 80s, they are shit to drive and live with, and compared to other cars of the era, more common
Anything Ferrari V12 with Manuel from mid 90s on 2008 is the key for financial boon
So great to see you and Video Bob; really fun stuff!
Begging for a video again that countach was. Thank you Tyler! Its what keeps me watching
Good to see you Hoovie, it's been a while. Hope things are getting better for you. Don't sell the lambo, you will regret it when it's worth 2 million in 5 years time!
Not sure he has the choice, he’s getting sucked out by a Japanese vampire
Watch the property and stock markets. The Lambos will move in the opposite direction.
@@davidelliott5843 do you understand This is not about value, it’s a divorce he’s facing and he has to sell more than half of his collection
Wow i swear i wrote vietnamese vampire, who changed it?
Both were a hot piles of garbage….. I’ve seen much better lambo kits.
This is one of the cars you should NOT sell Hoovie, you're definitely going to regret it!
It’s not his choice it’s court order he has to sell all his assets and give half to that former prostitute.
@@MiturBinEsdertywatch your mouth that is his child’s mother, you don’t know what happened
@@gatewaypark1 watch my mouth or what? It’s common knowledge he married a whore who is cashing out.
@@gatewaypark1she's Asian- they're all scammers
He should dump it on a rich Boomer before they all die.
24:07 (He never finished his thought) The three motors you can swap into a Fiero are: 1) the 1991-95 Cadillac 4.9L (that's the one that was in the first (unfinished) Countach replica shown in the video), 2) the 6-cyl 3800 Supercharged (from 1995-2008 GM FWD cars), 3) the 5.3L LS4 V8 (from the '05-'09 GM FWD cars).
My first amateur rally build was a Fiero when I was 16. I still have that car, but it's a few generations of rebuilds later with a manual gearbox Toyota 2GR V6 I planned on using for a Celica FWD build. All new suspension and everything to give a solid mix of grip and comfort for touring. Body mostly original but with a slight different height (I liked it when it was actually raised a bit for rally, so it's basically a wannabe Lancia Stratos in terms of height and tire style). With some common complaints fixed, they're not bad little cars for what they offer for the price. I have two Opel GTs (One all stock, one with a turbo LE5 1.4l I4) that blow both the Fieros I own away in a lot of categories, but all of them are fun to drive.
In highschool I drove one & really liked it; what put me off buying one was I'd see them pretty often in the junkyard burnt to a crisp. I ended up going with a 325i instead.
My former landlord had a number of exotic cars that he had restored, and one of them was a Bizzarini (1960s tube chassis with aluminum body panels and a Chevrolet 327). He was hit by a pickup truck when driving the Bizzarini, and had to do some serious work to get it back to perfect. He later built a Cobra kit car, which came out very nice because of his attention to detail, and this was the car he actually drove and enjoyed.
Love the Corvette up top. Need to look back in your videos sometime to see the video on it.
I saw a Fiero replica on CarGurus for an insane price the other day, but it was listed entirely as a Countach. Zero mention of it being a Fiero, aside from the picture of its engine, but a non-car person wouldn't know its about 1/3rd the size, but if you know even a little you can obviously tell just looking at the fenders etc, but it looked just like all the other kit cars.
I love how Wizard is still trying to push the "one is bigger than the other" argument in his favor. Gave me a good cackle.
Cornball dad jokes.
One hangs lower, not bigger...
@MarkoVukovic0 He never said anything about “hanging”. Get your shit straight before trying to correct someone.
@@vincedibona4687Wizard actually WAS talking about one hanging lower. With such a strong overreaction I would've thought you actually knew what you were talking about.
HANGS lower. Usually the left. It's to do with blood flow.
Glad to see hoovie back making vids more often, stay strong brother!!!
Keep doing the great work, this world needs more of it.
The top air intake vents don't look proportionate, but one of the better exteriors I've seen. I saw one at a car show last summer and it took a bit to tell if it was a kit car.
I love your channel Tyler, it makes me happy to see you happy my friend. Do what makes you happy.
Bob seems like the kind of guy that could sell ice to an eskimo.
I mean, he did just sell a Pontiac to a Lambo guy
His ex wife is Canadian 😂😂
Really? You'd buy something from that goofball?
He already did...Twice :)
@@Globbshell yeah I’d buy something from that goofball, just for the experience 😂
I remember having a poster of a red countach on my dorm room wall. That and an SR-71. lol! In fact, I even built a red countach model when I was a kid. They were THE car back then.
I remember watching the video of you buying it in New Year’s Eve 2019. Man what a special time of life was before something came and changed history forever in the first month of a new decade.
Why would anyone wreck a perfectly good Fiero to make a Countach?
😂
Same reason ur daddy smashed on ur ugly ass mom. 🎶🎶Coun Tach this daa naaa naa naa🎶
Yeah, I don't understand why anybody would even want to build or own a fake one, other than for a movie/TV prop. Why would you want to be a poser.
@@OMGWTFLOLSMH Because 90% of the experiance for 10% of the cost.
@@jamesmaybrick2001 Maybe 90% of the experience of just looking at it, which after you're inside, is 0% of the experience.
Thanks for letting me live vicariously through you Hoovie.
Yeah same for me most of the car youtubers like shmee, hoovie and other these guy do make us feel like we own these beauties
I hope you're enjoying that divorce as much as Hoovie is.

Bob is hilarious! Please have future appearances of him on the channel! 😂
Delorean guys hate Video Bob cause Bob only has negative things to say about them, plus he ruins them to make Time Machine Replicas. I'm pretty neutral on all of it.
@@nimaside They made about 9000 Deloreans and maybe 2% of them have been "modified". The purists need to accept that no one would know what a Delorean is if it wasn't for Back to the Future. That's what they hate.
Bob may have 'fake cars', but he's the real deal. We want more of him.
.....when you come to realize the mathematics of 600k vs 20k (+10k more to make it better) 'fake cars' seem like a better proposition. 600k / 30k = 20, that's 20 proper fake cars, a week has 7 days! 🙃
As someone who daily drives an '86 Fiero, it's great to see you enjoying one! If you ever decide to add one to the fleet, check out my local club, the Kansas City Fiero Owner's Group! We've got a myriad of cool swapped cars with all sorts of engines, and we've even got a couple of kit cars in the group (including a beautiful 3800SC-swapped Mera)!
Great video with Video Bob. Glad you met up in Vegas. I wouldn't shed a tear if you sold the Countach. You still have lots of gems in the hangar and could spend the proceeds to finance some future dreams.
Hoovie - you don't want a fake anything. What happens is you spend all your time watching people's excitement turn to disappointment as you answer the "is it real" question with a no. It totally ruins the ownership experience.
He faked being straight and look where that got him
There are some cars that are very difficult to find real versions of. I think as long as the replica is well made then it's fine, just don't try to sell it as something it isn't. Like, most people aren't going to be able to find a Shelby Cobra or a Ford RS200 even with money. Hell, I'd gladly put an RSi bodykit on my Beetle if I could find one. Would I tell people it's a real RSi? No, I'd be honest, but I'd love the look regardless.
If you are driving a car to impress others, you just don’t get it.
He already had a fake marriage
@@Nedinho23this genuinely caught me off guard and i busted out laughing. 😂
Love ya Hoovie! Hope life is turning a corner for you mate. Cheers from Australia.
Anyone who can say the Alpine in their Countach ate a tape, while playing Danger Zone, has truly lived well.
Yep. That needs to be next on Hoovies list…. LS Swapped Fiero GT. Always loved those cars! So underrated!
That divorce must be costing a fortune to even contemplate selling that!! Keep strong man.
He split from the china lady ??
:/@@danionescu988
These women are greedy. Good for nothing.
@danionescu988 that's why I'm single 😆 no divorce headache
This is crazy
The Countach ASMR at the beginning is the only ASMR I will give my time to.
I was expecting that to be a fake countach and I was saying to myself "they sure did a damn good job if that's fake!
That reverse gear lockout switch is great!
You obviously don’t know what ASMR is.
@@vincedibona4687 I do know what it is, and that's why this kind is better :)
Love how the rear bumper matches up with the wide fender.
You're very gracious, Hoovie, for giving any video exposure of those hideous fakes.
I'll admit, I've never seen a real Countach up close and in person. However, I can spot anything built on a Pontiac Fiero. Having owned a Fiero and worked on it I know those cars extremely well. There is always some give away with kit cars and replicas that use Fiero donors.
A real one is lower and much wider; those are the two most obvious differences by eye.
Hey Hoovie I love your videos and content... the laughs and knowledge are well worth subscribing, I am sorry to hear the double edge sword has come to swing on the ownership I love that you finally achieved your dream car, but sadly it is time to send it on to the next custodian. If you cant enjoy it because your afraid you'll destroy the value then its no longer any fun to own and I am a man who believes in Jay Leno's mantra, cars are meant to be driven not sit in the garage.
Please keep it going Hoovie, we miss your content.
The moral of the story. Never get married. If you do, you had better have a prenuptial agreement. His ex was a waitress when he met her. Now, Hoovie is forced to sell everything to give her half. It's absolutely BS
It takes all kinds!! Everybody gets to do what they like. Real or fake...."ridiculous" is the word that sums it up best.
Just about more than any other classic, I can see the Countach as a relative bargain. Even though there are quite a few available, compared to say a Miura, the Countach is just so iconic. Over the top styling, poster's on the wall, a great story, the v12, it's the rich baby boomers & genX dream car. $500k today? Can't see why these won't double in five years or less.
They will hold value forever, but I guess it will peak in 15-20 years. Just based on the age of all the young dreamers in it's glory days.
Would love to ask a bunch of Gen Z’ers if the love the Countach or if it is just meh. Since I grew up drooling over it I can’t give an unbiased opinion.
@@jphilb It doesn't take many. I just looked up the production number and it's just under 2000 units total, I was thinking much more because they were made for many years. The Muira is only about a third of these numbers, and seem to start around $1.5MM
Personally I don't see much realistic value to it apart from being sentimental and exclusive. Other supercars are more comfortable, handle better, look better and have better parts availability. Owning a car like this purely for investment purposes is such a dull use of money.
The countach must be pretty meaningless to people who weren't around in the 80s. It only means anything to people because it was so insane back int''day
23:56 I bet that thing would rip with a modern engine and a properly tuned turbo set up. Even with the 3.1L upgrade. I saw a conversion to a 3.8 and it was a rocket.
Ive never noticed until this video that you sound a bit like Jeff Goldblum. Love your channel.
Well done wizard keep it going bud Tyler sell whatever you have to it’s fine. Just get money for food and everything. Stay hydrated as well bud check in with Doug as well please
Bob's accurate impression of Sam Hard (+100 points) Creative interpretations of real exotic cars ("Trans-terrosa" +100 points... because Trans-Am, "Count-ash" +90 points... it's still got a little ways to go.)
Happy to see you back.
Great upload, hello Bob and Tyler 👍🏴
Mr Video Bob was hilarious in this one, nice work, both of you. The Wizard's Balls cameos need to be their own series.
From what i'm seeing, there's no way someone would confuse a kit car for a real countach.
And those who would, their opinion really doesn't matter anyways.
Love the ASMR button pushing at the beginning, feels like I’m sitting in the car playing with everything before I set off.
just as you were saying how good the shifting was that downshift in your real Lamborghini Countach seemed a bit tough
Gutted for you, she's really taking you to the cleaners.
It really is sad man. As soon as I heard 500K for the car I instantly thought...250K 😢
He even got the snip. Probably her made him. He can’t even have more kids. Such a shame.
yep she truely got him for all his worth and she hasnt made a dime herself from hard work, shame
Should replace all his hoopties with replicas or worse ones
@@DerekL2005She's not even hot.
Sir, you are so busy with the channel that I understand why you skip leg day at the gym. Keep up the great work, and my condolences on your car collection shrinkage.
😂
Getaway sticks!
Hey Hoovie, years ago back when the Countach was being sold new, Harry Levinson of Harry Levinson's men's clothing in Indianapolis had one. I remember him pulling up and parking it along the windows of the Friday's on the north side of Indy. He got out then walked around the car and opened the door for his wife/girlfriend. She was in a dress and heals, she turned sideways in her seat and put her feet out the door. He then grabbed her hands then pulled her up and out very smoothly, I was impressed. His car looked like a twin to yours, white with a red interior.
Hoovie. Thanks for the introduction to Bob. Ha ha, I love this guy. So funnyl
For a kit car Lamborghini it deserves a much better engine than that and then it would be worth it. A nice turbo or pro charged V-8 or even a Flat plane crank V-8 or even a viper V-10. For 20 thousand it would be worth it to give it a much better power plant. I’ve seen one that is a full frame and body kit that has nothing to do with a donor car and you would think the kit car was nicer than the production version. They were the same size as well and looked almost identical. The interior has a much more updated and functional look to it as well.
Hang up before the wizard bills another minute 😂😂😂
Lawyers charge billable hours and minutes and cost more. 🤷♂️😠
I actually just picked up a replica Countach project last week! Can't wait to dig into it!
Great episode! I'm sure John Temerian is calling @RobertMoseley every 6 months asking him to sell his Countach!! 😂😂
You can get a Countach replica which uses the Jaguar 5.3 V12, so you have the sound to go with the looks.
Enjoyed the torn bar code sticker on the back of the rear view on the red replica. It says everything the guys who build and keep these things. Also liked the puffs of oil smoke out of the exhaust. It's always fitting to use junkyard engines in the replica cars without going through them. When they get too bad, just get another one from your local auto recycler. Don't even bother to hose off the grime. That said I feel that 20k is too much money for them.
I was so upset Tyler didn't let Bob finish listing off the engines that fit in the Fiero!
@@danielratner Northstar V8 . Cadillac,4.9 v8 Supercharged Pontiac 3.8 from a gtp/Buick regal But there's also the option of an all aluminum 5.3 LS motor from the front wheel drive Monte Carlo and Pontiac GTP.
I bought it like this. I will make it good. Give me a minute.
@@RobertMoseley really, a little spruce up on the inside and a junkyard gtp setup(the aluminum 5.3), it would be awesome. Junkyard motor just for the haters. Because you know what engine is in the car your currently driving? A used one...... Troll the trolliollies
Two of my favorite KZheadrs funniest episode yet❤❤❤❤❤❤
I really like how Video Bob is committed to the knock off lifestyle, I spotted the Icon toolbox which is an exact Snap-on knock off
The problem with garage queens. You are to scared to drive them as it would depreciate their value, and what if someone rearends you? One a sidenote, i think a backup camera in the countach would be a lovely thing to have.
Do you own a car collection? The biggest problem is finding time to drive them, nothing to do with being “scared.”
That's what classic insurance is for. A life of fear is not life.
@@freepieanchipsgarage Do you own a half a million dollar car? like what the hell are you talking about? Hoovie has talked multiple times how scary it is to drive it because he's afraid to damage it in someway.
@@Mastermind12358 irrelevant. He’s joking for the video, and he even drove it. I suspect it’s practically becoming uninsurable. If you own a car collection, you understand the rigours of maintaining it and you don’t use infantile phrases such as “garage queen.”
@@Mastermind12358 and no, I’m not interested in some teenage male American riposte, either.
I like Video Bob's British impression.. Definitely keep the Countach a few more years, specially with all the EV's coming out
Ive seen the fierros, there funny looking. But the Ferrari kits put around them, theres alot of modifications don to get them to fit. The front is super low and extends out. It sucks to tow them because its fiberglass, easy to crack.
The "Alante" Italian V8 has me rolling on the floor this morning. Video Bob is a howl. :)
Lol. Love the math, half of $500,000 / $600,000 is $20,000 LMAO. This was a fun episode :)
Good luck, Hoovie! 🙂
My absolute favorite car of all time. I’ve never seen one up close. I’ve met you before, many years ago, before you started youtube. Next time I am in town, I’d love to see this machine. Think we can make it happen Mr. Hoover?
You should resto mod it. Wide body kit or not but full upgrade with current Lamborghini parts drivetrain etc.
Ed and Tavarish need to put their funds together and hire the hitman. Can't let their boy go out like this 😂😂😂

@@southworthmediashe had a job tho but yeah she’s getting a nice chunk of everything
Impressive. Almost as impressive as Bob's humor and charisma. However, there is NOTHING like the sound of that Italian V12 pulling up next to you. I'll never forget the rumble of that first time. I love the sounds of engines and sitting at a stop light in my youth, hearing that roar as it came to a stop right next to me, thinking "What is that? That is NOT a V10. That HAS to be a V12!" And sure enough, at green oaks at an under pass in Arlington, TX of all places, a Lamborghini Diablo pulled up next to me. I became a man that day.
Oh, you should search out a Fiero. My father had one back when they were new. I loved driving that car. He had to sell it because it was too low for him to get out of because of back issues he had. I should have bought it back then.
Don’t sell it hoovie that car means a lot to you and plus in like 10- 20 years that car will be worth so much you could ever imagine so hold on to it please I bet if you sell it it would be your biggest regret ever!
Countaches have peaked in value. They are a pain in the ass to own and maintain and not good to drive. Exotic car prices in general are declining now.
Years ago my coworker had a Ferrari F40 Fiero kit car. From 20 feet going 20 MPH you'd think it was the real thing - it was surprisingly nice. it only had the 2.8 FI V-6 engine like this car though. He sold it and got an actual Ferrari 360. That car stops traffic where ever he parks. I think he made a better choice with the real Ferrari. Except for parts maybe...
You made me laught so hard tyler with your intro.oouuhhhhh welcome to hoovies garage 😂😂😂😂
Ive never quite understood replica kit cars, but I do understand the Fiero. Very fun little cars
Hoovie: If, as you say, you don’t drive it much, how can you say it’s reliable? Is that a relative concept? Apart from that, if it cost you around 100K and now it’s worth 500K then perhaps it’s time to let go given any ongoing deterioration. Depends upon how much you need 400K right now. Good luck mate.
Can someone explain why the wheels never fit the wheel wells of these replicas? I've never seen a replica without a 8" gap between the wheel, fender and offset?
Supercars are normally really wide. Donor cars are normally much narrower.
oh my god Video Bop is hilarious ,what a quick wit and hes really funny ,im so desperate to follow hes channel now,hes an enigma in the way he looks scary as hell but when he speaks hes a riot ,best guest youve had Tyler
I got to build one of the last Tom McBurnie Fauxrarris. I spoke to Tom about it after it was done. I'm not sure why it left his shop unfinished but it was neat to finish it. We sold it on ebay and it was shipped to Germany. For a replica it was a neat car but we took our time and it turned out great.
Don't sell it!!!! It's a fantastic car
No it isn’t 😂 Those are HORRIBLE cars. Literal giant pieces of crap. They’re built like garbage to begin with and don’t hold up to use at all. Not to mention, the interiors are worse than a same period Toyota 😂
They are fantastic to look at. Horrible to drive.
Isn’t love grand?.. sorry Hoovie.. we all saw your demise upon taking delivery of your mail order bride….always remember : living well is the best revenge…
Good to see you Hoovie
That first Countach replica brought back memories. I had an '88 Fiero Formula with the Cadillac 4.9L engine/tranny swap (a common swap for those cars) and it was fun, but I was too tall (6' 5") for the car, so I sold it. Had that not been an issue, I'd have kept it forever.
Damn she really doesn't want even a drop of milk be left in you 😂
...mine was the same...pure evil 🦹♀️
I’m curious to see what type of kits come out once used C8’s drop into a reasonable price range.
When it comes to kit cars Cobra kits are pretty nice I'd love to have one. If someone put fourth that effort towards the Fountain it would be the way to go. I'd like to have a nice Pantera kit car. I'd sell it for a half a mil myself. That red one looked good till you got inside!
I saw a Diablo clone today that had a GM L67 (supercharged 3.8 V6 with Eaton M90 supercharger) mounted mid-engine. These came in Grand Prix GTP, Monte Carlo SS, Buick Riviera, etc. It was one of the better looking clones I've seen, but had some build issues. Cool car
Sad that hoovie lost the house
That’s the way it works 🤷♂️😞
Yea the fakes will never have that engine thou and that’s what gets the attention my opinion
I’m of the same opinion with the Fiero as I am the Firebird. The Formula is way better than the GT. If you happen on one, I would grab it to buzz around in.
The replicas all fall short unless it’s a full blown recreation with modern tech. The 25th anniversary Countach is a glorious automobile and undervalued for what it is. Funny how the vintage Alpine ate Tyler’s Top Gun soundtrack, kinda appropriate really. Good to see the man’s balls have healed, he was showing off his new shorts in a athletic way. Best wishes to all!!
