Surprising Discoveries in New Jersey

Ray explores buying a unique, hand built car that the Schultz family has kept in their New Jersey home for years. The car was originally called the Schultz El Fierro but it's officially titled in New as a "Schultz Special" from 1958. It was used to drag race and held numerous racing records, but most important to that family was that it was driven by the legendary Carroll Shelby. With a frame and style much similar to the Shelby Roadster, the Schultz family wonders if it inspired one of the most well known automobiles in America. In another epic New Jersey story, Ray finds Mario Andretti's 1965 Indy car. The catch: it's completely in pieces hidden away in a garage. The iconic driver talks about his days on the track with that car and Ray attempts to negotiate a deal to buy the parts.
