  • [MUSIC PLAYING]

  • OK, well, it's pretty obvious what that is.

  • That's a Dale Earnhardt racing jacket.

  • I mean, the guy was an absolute badass.

  • I know there was an exhibition race in Japan.

  • It wasn't for anything.

  • But his son thought he would be a little cute

  • and give his dad a bump, and his dad spun him out.

  • Absolutely.

  • COREY: [LAUGHS]

  • I have a 1993 Dale Earnhardt racing suit from

  • the Coca-Cola 600 that he won.

  • Friend of mine gave it to me.

  • He acquired it in 1993 at a invitation only event.

  • Everybody loves being a fan of Dale Earnhardt.

  • And when Dale Earnhardt died in 2001,

  • it just kind of took the spirit out of it.

  • And I really haven't watched racing since.

  • It's really cool.

  • You don't get a nickname like "The Intimidator"

  • for no reason. - That's right.

  • You know?

  • This guy turned NASCAR into a contact sport.

  • The guy did absolutely crazy things.

  • I mean, I think there's a famous thing

  • he did called the "pass in the grass,"

  • where he actually drove into the grass

  • and passed somebody or something like that.

  • JASON: Yep.

  • So do you know what race this suit is from?

  • That is the 1993 Coca-Cola 600.

  • - He won that one, didn't he? - Yes, sir.

  • OK.

  • And when he won a race, he retired the suit.

  • And, you know, there's a bunch of signatures down there.

  • Who's it-- who's it all signed by?

  • Well, here we have Delbert McClinton,

  • you have Dale Earnhardt, Sr., Neil

  • Bonnet, and Teresa Earnhardt.

  • He didn't sign the actual suit himself, did he?

  • I'm thinking up here--

  • I don't know if that's his signature or not,

  • but it has Earnhardt in the--

  • OK.

  • So what are you looking to do with it?

  • Well, I was looking to sell it, to be honest with you.

  • Any idea what you want to get?

  • I'm looking somewhere around $100,000.

  • OK.

  • To be honest with you, man, I have no idea.

  • Man, I know people who go absolutely nuts over this guy.

  • JASON: Yeah.

  • But I've never had something like this in here.

  • Do you mind if I have a buddy of mine take a look at it?

  • Oh, I would love to.

  • Yeah, absolutely.

  • All right.

  • You want to give Steve a call?

  • Yeah.

  • I'll be right back.

  • [REGISTER DINGS]

  • - Hey, Steve. - Hey, what's up?

  • Good to see you, Corey.

  • - How you doing, buddy? - How are you?

  • Good.

  • Nice to see you.

  • You too.

  • Awesome.

  • COREY: You're an Earnhardt fan?

  • Yeah, of course.

  • I love auto racing.

  • And this guy, Dale Earnhardt, Sr., I mean,

  • he's really widely known as the greatest

  • race car driver of all time.

  • The great thing about Dale Earnhardt, Sr.,

  • is his legacy on racing.

  • He had 76 career wins.

  • He won the Daytona 500.

  • He had this run where he was--

  • just didn't lose.

  • You know, in auto racing, he was the guy.

  • I mean, you think of the-- the Winston Cup titles,

  • he won seven of them.

  • So, you know, in terms of significance, if you--

  • you can't have a better racing suit than Dale Earnhardt's.

  • OK, so what do you think about the signature?

  • So, he had a beautiful autograph.

  • His signature should look literally just

  • like this and this.

  • Very nice and flowing, and we see that here and then here.

  • So there's no doubt about the signature being real, OK?

  • No doubt at all.

  • This is to certify that this Dale Earnhardt GM Goodrich

  • driving suit is authentic.

  • I like the fact that when I look up here,

  • I see his name written right up here, Earnhardt.

  • Obviously, underneath here, you know,

  • it's a jumpsuit, so you have the pants that come in.

  • You know, everything I see here appears absolutely genuine.

  • OK, so any idea what it's worth?

  • So, you know, based on everything I've seen here,

  • you know, I put the value right at about $20,000.

  • COREY: All right, man, I appreciate it.

  • STEVE GRAD: Yeah. Good luck.

  • COREY: Thank you. - Good to see you, Chum.

  • - See you later. - Yeah.

  • Nice to see you. Take care.

  • Yep.

  • I know you were asking for 100 grand, man.

  • It's a lot of money.

  • Yeah.

  • You heard my guy.

  • I could probably get 20,000 for it,

  • and that's if I sold it retail.

  • Can I get you to come off that?

  • About 85,000 is about the best I could do.

  • So I can't get you anywhere near 15,000?

  • [MUSIC PLAYING]

  • Nah.

  • Yep.

  • Maybe next time, man.

  • I'm always here if you change your mind, OK?

  • Thanks, brother.

  • Thank you.

  • JASON: Well, unfortunately, we couldn't come to an agreement

  • today and make a deal, and I just couldn't do it.

  • I'll take it back home and hang on the wall, I guess.
