Making It With Jimmy Diresta, Bob Clagett and David Picciuto · 532: Attacked with Ideas · 7 Aug 2026 podcast

So this uh the quick story is I I bought a Cadillac when I turned thirty.

and I owned it for about five years and then when I needed money to buy this house, my only asset in the whole world, besides a bunch of credit debt

was this nineteen seventy six Cadillac.

So I sold it to my friend Peter

so I could have some money in the bank 'cause I w I was having a really bad summer in the summer of twenty twenty four.

And the opportunity to buy this house came up

And I got laid off from my steady job that I had.

It was even though it was like a technically a freelance, but it was my only client that was paying me the most money.

And he went out of business and I had no money in the bank and so I had to sell my Cadillac.

And I sold it to my friend Peter and one day I knew I'd get it back, maybe.

I hadn't looked back at all, so the day he drove away I hadn't seen it till the day I decided to go look at it to buy it, which was this April, so it was twenty twenty three years later.

And uh anyway I got the car.

I've talked about it quite a bit.

And uh I fixed a lot of little doodads on it and I just got it back from the the paint restorer.

And it looks unbelievable.

It's not a hundred percent perfect, but I didn't have to strip the car and repaint it, which would have been it's still the original paint.

To to repaint it would have been blasphemy.

Because it's all original, the car is obviously super low miles and it's original car, it's it's mostly been garage its whole life.

Anyway, so I was gonna put that video together, that whole it's more of a vlog about that car.

I think I'm gonna post that this week.
