Custom Car Show Classic Car Chat

Speaker 1 0:01

Welcome to another In Wheel Time podcast . It's the world's favorite place to go for fun , car romance and talk . This is the In Wheel Time Car Talk Show Today , coming to you from Woody's Waterfront Rod and Custom Car Show Just ahead . Another car lover is in our sights , uh-oh , and we're going to stick the microphone on his face Later . Jeff has the racing calendar , mars has this week in auto history and I'll get you caught up on the stories making automotive news headlines this week . Howdy , along with Mike out of this world , mars down there chatting amongst themselves . We always need more . Jeff Zekin , our chief engineer , david Ainsley , is with us today . We got him out of bed early . We have our built-in audience . That would be Jeff Heitzman . I'm Don Armstrong . Glad you could join us on this Saturday . It is simply gorgeous down here . Okay so Galveston Bay , trinity Bay we're right between the two , right here on the point in San Leon , texas .

Speaker 2 1:02

And there's not a cloud in the sky .

Speaker 1 1:03

And Jeff's going to have a little story about the founding of San Leon .

Speaker 3 1:08

That's my feature today , so pay attention .

Speaker 1 1:10

All right , we've got that coming up . All right , Mr Morris , who do we have in the hot seat ?

Speaker 2 1:15

You know , one of these days , when I grow up , I am going to have a 32-row car , you'd better hurry up .

Speaker 3 1:19

Yeah , I know .

Speaker 2 1:25

And this particular one that we have right here now . Danny Burroughs is here with it and he is with Bruce's Rod Shop . Bruce's Rod Shop , you know , if you remember I didn't realize this until we talked . Didn't we ? A few years ago , we talked to his mother at Pipes and Tacos . She was out there in a Roadster as well , yeah three of them yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah . So he's out here today with this one and I love it .

Speaker 1 1:46

Yeah , what is that ? A 32 ? Yes sir , it's a 32 , what I would call a low boy .

Speaker 4 1:52

Well , actually that's a high boy roaster .

Speaker 1 1:54

This one's a high boy . Yes , sir , what's the difference between a high boy and a low boy ?

Speaker 4 1:58

A high boy roaster , the body is not channeled over the frame . A low-boy roaster , the body's channeled over the frame , which makes it look , of course , lower to the ground . Ah , okay .

Speaker 1 2:06

And this is the high-boy yeah , high-boy is basically Because it's on the standard frame .

Speaker 4 2:10

It's on a standard 32-forward chassis . Basically , a high-boy roaster is basically a stock-appearing car that they pull the fenders and running boards off of . And so back in the , the pre-war era , um , when they were starting to build hot rods , um , or hot rods 32s were .

Speaker 4 2:33

Yeah , we're kind of the the golden child of the plentiful exactly light exactly , and so basically you could get one relatively inexpensive and and the racers out in southern california there's running out at the dry lakes and el mirage , they would just pull the fenders off and and go out there and just like you see it here .

Speaker 1 2:52

Yes , sir , now was it , was it a two-seater always ? It's always a two-seater . Yes , sir , who bought that car back when it was new ?

Speaker 4 2:59

um , I can't , I can't imagine a family car no , they , they had uh , this , uh 32 was available with either a trunk car . No , they had . This 32 was available with either a trunk car or a rumble seat car .

Speaker 1 3:08

A rumble seat .

Speaker 4 3:08

So a small family . Well , everybody was small back then . The average person was probably 5'4" . That's how I was .

Speaker 2 3:18

Yeah , way back then I've seen pictures .

Speaker 4 3:22

And so they could have had the kids in the back and then have the parents .

Speaker 1 3:27

And the rumble seat . So when they rolled it over , the kids go flying out .

Speaker 4 3:30

Oh yeah , yeah , yeah , just eject them and they're okay .

Speaker 2 3:32

The rumble seat . You could get the rumble seat with a roadster .

Speaker 4 3:34

Yeah , you could get a rumble seat with every two-seater body style .

Speaker 1 3:39

Was it ? I'm just asking because I've got to ask these questions as we go along here , Of course . Could you make the rumble seat after the car was already built with a trunk ?

Speaker 4 3:52

Yes , this particular car , if I remember correctly , was a rumble seat car that we converted to a trunk car . Basically , the deck lid's the same , the body's the same . Car Basically , the deck lid's the same , the body's the same . There's one panel that the deck lid latches to , that bolts in and out between the two different body styles or the two different options , and so you could have a trunk car and later on decided that you wanted a rumble seat and basically convert it to a rumble seat car .

Speaker 1 4:26

How long have you had this car ?

Speaker 4 4:28

This car . It's been on the road since 2009 . We've had it for numerous years . Before then , we were collecting parts for it .

Speaker 1 4:39

So this is your restoration ?

Speaker 4 4:41

Yes , sir , this is actually my dad's roaster that me and him built together at our shop .

Speaker 1 4:47

Well , you have a beautiful model . Well , thank you , thank you .

Speaker 4 4:50

No , the model , oh the model .

Speaker 2 4:52

The guy that's showing you . Oh , okay , yeah .

Speaker 1 4:54

That guy . But , I guess the model is in the eye of the beholder because he's not a beauty to me .

Speaker 3 5:01

The prison pre-release program is working wonders .

Speaker 1 5:05

Ladies and gentlemen , that sir is Michael Wooding , sometimes known as Woody .

Speaker 2 5:10

This is his car show , our host Well today's Woodette With the most he's Woodette you can do whatever you want to do if you own the show .

Speaker 4 5:18

Mm-hmm , All right so what kind of motors it got in it .

Speaker 1 5:19

It's not a flathead , All right . So what kind of motors it got in it ? It's not a flathead .

Speaker 4 5:23

No , no , not this one . This one , 32 , was the first year for a flathead , so it could have had a flathead from the factory . This one here has actually got a small block Chevrolet in it with a five-speed . Okay now why See ?

Speaker 1 5:36

I have just a little bit of an issue with that . Why would you put a Chevrolet motor into a Ford vehicle .

Speaker 4 5:47

When there are Ford motors available to go in that ? The easiest way to answer that is they fit better in between the firewall and the radiator than a Ford does , because of the architecture of a Ford motor is long in the front and so , which means that to have enough room for electric fan and radiator and accessories , that the motor has to be moved back in the chassis , which encroaches into your foot room in the car .

Speaker 1 6:14

So that's , that's the simple way of saying it or you could put a ford four banger in there well , they , they , uh , they had that from the factory .

Speaker 4 6:22

Um , you could either get 32 as kind of the biggest transition year , because of course Ford came out with the V8 in that year and they were basically during those year ranges .

Hot Rod Shop Family Legacy

Speaker 4 6:39

Chevrolet was kicking their tails on sales because of the inline six . That was a good power plant in the Chevrolet models back then .

Speaker 1 6:48

But then again the same issue holds true you can't put a straight six in it because it's too long .

Speaker 4 6:54

Exactly yeah , and so the V8 platform from Ford in the flathead gave them the more cubic inches and the more power in a relatively small , compact size .

Speaker 1 7:09

See , I'm thinking right now the first thing that comes to my mind something that's small , of course , if you can't hot rod it too much , but the turbocharged Buick V6 , would that would fit ?

Speaker 4 7:23

Yeah , we actually several years back we built a 27 roaster for a customer that had a turbocharged V6 in it and we tried to convince the customer that was the first V6 turbocharged motor that we had worked on and putting it into a hot rod . And so we tried to convince the customer man , we could put a small block in this thing and it would work great and have good power . And he's like no , this is the power plant that I want to run . This is what I want , and so sometimes the customer is right .

Speaker 1 7:57

Yeah , sometimes .

Speaker 4 7:57

Yeah , sometimes , sometimes the customer is right , and so we put that in there . And the first opportunity that I got to drive the car when we got on the road , I had my own roaster at the time that had about a 400 horsepower small block in it and um , and so I was very familiar on what that car felt like with that power range . And this motor was built and it had a similar power range and , and so I got out and and kind of put my foot in it and and it's like this piece of junk and then that turbo spooled up .

Speaker 2 8:27

What's it kick .

Speaker 4 8:29

Oh , it kicked like a mule and took off and all you could hear is just rushing wind from the turbo and the wind being an open car . And that was the moment that a turbocharged , small cubic inch , small displacement motor gave me the respect .

Speaker 1 8:46

Now let me take that one step further . So how much reliable horsepower can you get out of a flathead V8 , say for instance a 32 ?

Speaker 4 8:59

Well , an original 32 . No , not the original , I know , but the original architecture of a 32 motor .

Speaker 1 9:13

But the original architecture of a 32 motor , the types of bearings that they use is not a good platform to make power out of , didn't they modify ?

Speaker 4 9:17

those though , in later years , yes , later years .

Speaker 1 9:19

Basically . So I guess what I'm saying is you could , worse , come to worse , put a flathead V8 , same style , same looking motor that it came with , but with updated internals and maybe a carburetor or whatever .

Speaker 4 9:33

Yeah , you could get reliably and probably these days the parts availability for a flathead is probably the greatest that has ever been in history . What kind of horsepower .

Speaker 1 9:46

Do you think you could get out of it ? At least I've seen in the mid-200s .

Speaker 4 9:47

I was going to say 250 . The greatest that has ever been in history . What kind of horsepower do you think you could get out of it ? At least I've seen in the mid-200s .

Speaker 1 9:51

I was going to say 250 .

Speaker 4 9:52

Which is an original 32 was 85 horse motor .

Speaker 1 9:56

But dude , there's no car there , it's just basically an engine with a frame and some steel around it . Oh my God , They'll let anybody in here , even the locals .

Speaker 2 10:07

Exactly , he's a local . Yeah , if he's driving a ford convertible , you can yeah .

Speaker 1 10:12

Well , not that one no it's not tim spell has decided to adorn us with his presence today . All right , so let's go back and and continue on . So do they make wiring harnesses for the small block chevy for that car ?

Speaker 4 10:29

um you have to make it yourself basically we start out with a universal wiring harness and then , uh , that basically gives us uh everything you need it gives us everything we need and and uh these some wires left over . Yes sir , yes sir these , these cars um are uh relatively uh simple designs um . This car doesn't have a radio , this car doesn't have AC .

Speaker 3 10:50

It's a radio delete . It's a radio delete . Yeah . Is it got a heater delete too ?

Speaker 4 10:54

No it actually has a heater in it . We put a heater in this car just for .

Speaker 1 10:58

Was it a 38 Special ? Is that the heater ?

Speaker 4 11:01

No , it actually has a vintage air heater under the dash . Okay , but it does have the 270 AC in it , two windows down 70 miles an hour .

Speaker 3 11:12

70 miles an hour , yeah .

Speaker 4 11:14

And so it's .

Speaker 2 11:16

Do you have a top for it ?

Speaker 4 11:17

Yes , sir , that car actually has a top . It's a cloth folding top .

Speaker 1 11:22

So it's more like a convertible . Did you buy it off the shelf or did you have ?

Speaker 4 11:25

it made . We bought the irons and we had the Hartz canvas put on it . When we first built this car , we bought a top and irons kit from a company called LeBaron Bonny , which has since closed down , but they made at that time restoration kits for upholstery and tops for different brands and models of cars .

Speaker 1 11:51

What kind of transmission is that ?

Speaker 4 11:53

That's got a Tremec TKO 5-speed .

Speaker 1 11:56

That's a manual transmission .

Speaker 4 11:57

Manual transmission .

Speaker 1 11:58

Why did you decide to go to a manual transmission ?

Speaker 4 12:00

Because hot rods are supposed to have three pedals . Okay , there you go , and small block Chevrolets . That's a fair enough answer .

Speaker 1 12:06

I got it , but I know that they make some really good three-speed automatics that would be able to take the horsepower . How much horsepower do you think it's got ?

Speaker 4 12:16

That's got a ZZ430 crate motor from Chevrolet , so it's got 430 horse , 430 torque .

Speaker 1 12:21

That thing would burn the tires off the back .

Speaker 4 12:24

It works really well that car . The last time we weighed the car it was 2,618 pounds , and so the power-to-weight ratio works really well on that car About two horsepower per pound .

Speaker 2 12:36

Uh-huh .

Speaker 4 12:36

Yeah , yeah .

Speaker 1 12:37

Yeah , so do you do this for a living ?

Speaker 4 12:40

Speaker 1 15:06

What cycle is this ? Is this the rinse cycle ?

Speaker 4 15:08

the cycle right now is is muscle cars and and classic trucks . Um , what I've , what I've noticed over the years , is I've I've worked on , worked on cars for uh older generation , uh , and then you have my generation and they have a little bit younger generation talk about my generation so yeah , of course , and so um , uh , the .

Speaker 4 15:30

it seems like the older generation likes the hot rods , uh , the children of that generation likes muscle cars , and the grandchildren of the first generation like what their grandparents were into . So they're . So you I've I've had the opportunity to be in it long enough where I've watched the cycles go and come . You're old , I am , I am , yeah , I feel .

Speaker 1 19:34

Middle of October , october 18th and I know you're happy .

Speaker 3 19:36

Yeah , that's a good thing .

Speaker 2 19:39

So this week in auto history , yeah , go for it . September , the 17th 1901 . It was the debut of the Oldsmobile Curved Dash . Now this may not sound like too big a deal , but it became the first mass-produced car in the US . There's a difference between mass-produced and being the one that was done like Henry Ford did on his line . So it became a pivotal event in automotive production history .

Speaker 2 20:04

The gasoline-powered Oldsmobile Model R was built on an assembly line using interchangeable parts , which is what made it different than just what Henry Ford was doing . It was introduced by the Oldsmobile Company in 1901 and produced from 1903 , and there was 19,000 overall were built produced from 1903 and there was 19 000 overall were built then . Coming up in september the 21st 1893 was the first gasoline-powered car in america . Charles and frank durie road tested the first gasoline-powered car in the us on the streets of springfield , massachusetts . That initial drive came to a sudden halt when , after just a few hundred feet , their self-engineered transmission failed . Frank made a slight adjustment to design , had the car back up and running and covered a half mile later in the day . It's regarded as the first time an American-manufactured gasoline-powered car was driven in the country .

Speaker 2 20:52

Then , in September the 23rd , 1969 , the Dodge Challenger hit the market . It was the late 1960s . The muscle car craze was sweeping the United States . Dodge tossed a new Challenger in the ring . The Dodge Challenger , which made a market debut on September 23 , 1969 , was the 1970 model , was a direct response to the competition from the other automakers such as Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro . It was muscular , aggressive-looking , had lots of choices in engines engines from a straight six to a big block 440 and even a 426 Hemi . 1969 , september the 23rd , the Triumph Spitfire Mark IV launched . Now , this was important because this was a British manufacturer . Triumph launched the Mark IV . Spitfire became an iconic model in the sports car world . The Mark IV featured a redesigned rear similar to the Triumph Stag and the Triumph 2000 models . Front end was revised with a new bonnet so that the top of the wings , the door , have you read for a while ?

Speaker 1 21:54

Yes , I'm thinking about something else , unfortunately .

Speaker 2 21:56

So the hood was welded down the top so that the hood opened like with the wings on it , the door handles were recessed and the convertible top got squared off .

Speaker 1 22:05

Corners Anyway this had a free- . Take that , drink away from him Full-width dashboard .

Speaker 2 22:11

The instrumentation was ahead of the driver instead of on the center of the dash , as it had previously been done , and it had a lot of black plastic that we talked about earlier In 1973 , it was finished in wood . It had a 79.1 cubic inch engine . Throughout the entire production run Beautiful . And that was the events this week in automotive history that stood out All right , yeah , buddy .

Speaker 1 22:37

It was tough . Here's one for you , Mars . This is right up your alley the Chrysler Voyager minivan . Remember that .

Speaker 2 22:45

Yeah , yeah .

Speaker 1 22:46

Well , it's returning to the retail lineup for the 2025 model year After several years . It's a fleet-only option . The Voyager will serve as the entry point to the brand's minivan lineup that includes the gasoline-powered Pacifica and the Pacifica plug-in hybrid . The Voyager starts at $41,690 . So why are they building it if it's going to cost that much ? I don't understand Fleet sales . No , no , they're going to start selling it again to the public but , it starts at $41,690 with shipping , $350 more than the base 2024 Pacifica . That makes no sense to me .

Speaker 2 23:23

No , that had to be really nice to beat out the Pacifica the .

Speaker 1 23:25

Voyager nameplate has roots dating back 40 years Plymouth Voyager , one of too many vans , along with the Dodge Caravan launched in 1984 . Sorry , I don't even know why I brought that story . Forget it . Neither do we , I don't know , know why I brought that story . Forget it . Neither we , I don't know why .

Speaker 1 23:41

Stupid Nissan won the first round in its long brewing boat battle with former chairman Carlos I call him Gosen I think it's pronounced Gone about who rightfully owns the indicted fugitive super yacht . With the court ruling Gone , illicitly siphoned millions from the car maker to buy the 121 foot pleasure cruiser have you ever seen it ? Oh my god , it's unbelievable . Gone was ordered to give up the vessel to nissan motor company , while he and his wife and a company they created as a vehicle to purchase the yacht , were ordered to pay $32 million in damages , according to the ruling by the British Virgin Islands High Court .

Speaker 1 24:23

The custom-line Nevada 37 yacht built by the Italian boatmaker Ferretti was christened Satchu Japanese for the boss . The boat builder's company catalog listed the model as having seven bathrooms , five main cabins and four cabins for the crew . The yacht became a symbol of the alleged self-serving excesses at the crux of misconduct accusations against Ghosn , who was arrested in 2018 , at the height of his power as chairman of the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi alliance , then the world's biggest automotive group . Way to go , ghosn . There you go , buddy Moron .

Speaker 2 25:02

My property is 105 foot deep . That boat's longer than your property , yeah , how many bathrooms do you have ? I get tired of walking from the front to the back of the yard .

Speaker 3 25:11

How many bathrooms do you have on your property ? Is this a ?

Speaker 2 25:14

math test today . No , I'm just imagining , how big this stupid boat is .

Speaker 1 25:21

It's right out there Political uncertainty in the US and Canada creating concern for the auto industry as the United States Mexico-Canada agreement approaches its scheduled review in 2026 . Under the terms of the trade pact , which dictates how vehicles and parts can move across borders without tariffs , the three countries must confirm in writing by July 1st 2026 whether they want to continue the deal . Okay , united states , canada , mexico there's that that's upcoming , more to worry about .

Speaker 1 25:50

Let's not forget about the dock strike that's impending it's going to affect everybody in everything if they shut down the dock workers all the way from New England , all the way down the eastern seaboard , right over here to the Gulf of Mexico and down to Mexico .

Speaker 3 26:08

Okay , see , now you need that big yacht .

Speaker 1 26:11
