In show #21 of Road Muscle Radio, Brett & Catfish talk about how the collector car market is cool- and has cooled, plus they do some Bronco (dream) busting, and Brett admits there might, maybe, sort of, kinda, could be an electric car he'd consider buying. Of course, it's RUSSIAN, but still....

Ped Watt of Watt Design Photography stops in for a chat about shooting cars both in a setting, and on a race track. Plus Catfish weasels some photo tips out of "Mr. Pro."

Tim McCarthy from HUSHMAT and ZYCOAT drops by the studio to discuss how the heck HUSHMAT does its magic on cars, and the amazing, micron-thick ZYCOAT coating that can raise the bar on raising horsepower.

Show notes

In show #20 of Road Muscle Radio, Brett & Catfish chat about the top 3 cars they wish Santa would put in their garages (because only Santa could help them afford'em!), plus they share maybe the stupidest thing they've done with a car...now that that statute of limitations has run out on such are-you-kidding-me youthful exuberance.

In news, they review the look of Chevy's new TRRRUUUUUUUUCK, plus talk about a brand new old Tucker on the way- one that's never been built before.

The show wraps up with another visit from Vreni Fernandez & Butcha Papon of Kansas City Automotive Museum, to talk about a freaky deaky display at the museum: The Manta Ray. It's amazing what a couple of 1950's aerospace engineers can do to a 1951 Studebaker when given spare time, spare money, spare parts, and some California dreamin'.

Road noise worth listening to. It's Road Muscle Radio.

Road Muscle Radio #014: A Tavarish to Build a Dream On Oct 26, 2018

Show notes

Ever seen a car on fire? It's not good. Ever seen a LAMBORGHINI on fire? It's a nightmare- unless you're Freddy Hernandez, aka "Tavarish" on youtube (@asktavarish), who seems to have a penchant bringing crispy-fried vehicles back to life. Tavarish joins Brett & Catfish for a chat about his Lambo flambé, his other charred cars, and reminds us all that no matter what your project is, don't lose heart, or your mind. "It's just a car." Words to live by. :)

Brett & Catfish also discuss the recent "Cars in the Park" event in KC- and their fave rides, plus an international top-10 list of classic cars to restore...that both the guys don't totally agree with. Put the loud pedal to the metal, it's Road Muscle Radio!
