Classic Cars: A Conversation with Circle C Classics


Ready to embark on a thrilling ride through the world of classic cars ?
Hold on as we bring you a conversation with Leon and Debbie Couch, owners of Circle C Classics in Caldwell, Texas. These are not your average car enthusiasts. From their distinct watermelon-themed Classic Chevy truck to their stunning collection of restored and modified vehicles, Leon and Debbie have carved out a unique space in the classic car scene. They also give us an insider's view of their display at the O'Reilly's Auto Parts Autorama where they promote their vacation rentals and event venue built around their growing car museum.
The journey doesn't stop there. The Couches steer us through the mesmerizing world of car clubs and the rising trend of "man bun drivers." We then shift gears to the high-speed drama of the F1 scene where we scrutinize the ongoing legal tussle between General Motors, Andretti, and F1 over profit distribution. Curious about how this legal dispute could change the face of car racing? You'll definitely want to tune in.
We wrap up with a discussion of the current state of F1 racing and its potential future. From the controversy around the Las Vegas F1 race to the logistical hurdles of the upcoming Abu Dhabi race, we look at several aspects. We also discuss the possible involvement of Andretti in F1 and the success of the Circuit of the Americas in Texas.
Mark your calendars and join us next Saturday for another riveting episode of the In Wheel Time Car Talk Show.
Lupe Tortilla in Katy, Texas, is host to the quarterly Saturday morning cruise-in!

Commercial building on the highway . Take that microphone and run it a little bit closer to your mouth . Be the sports broadcaster that you've always wanted to be .
Speaker 4And , and I'll jump in here . Yes a custom homebuilder . This is not just a building . I was thinking a custom building he designed it , built it and we are constantly adding decor in it the cars , the gas pump .
Speaker 1So you guys would get right , right along with Mike Mars , who goes out and buys all this stuff all the time , always adding to the stuff that we're trailering around . That's correct .
Speaker 4I had to buy a wagon yesterday there you go All right .
Speaker 1So Don't you have a display here ? Yes , and the display is for the cars , or is it for to sell Vacation rentals , or what is it ? I Haven't seen the display so I don't know .
Speaker 4It's all meant to be tied together all together Okay circle C Classics is to compliment the circle C vacation rentals and the circle C barn venue . If a bride comes in wants to book with us , we have an assortment of trucks and cars that she can have her picture made in got , it can be in front of the venue . So when we came across the homegrown sweet and juicy watermelon truck , we knew she'd be perfect for our Did you hear that ?
Speaker 5Yeah , mike's got it on the camera right now and the intake or the cover for the engine is a water , is a watermelon , yeah .

Speaker 3Well , hempstead's not too far away . We had a .
Speaker 1we had a truck that crashed here in the Houston area out in all three weeks ago or so like that , and it was a watermelon truck coming up 59 , 69 Southwest freeway and busted open the whole 18 wheeler and watermelons were everywhere .
Speaker 5Thank goodness you weren't a part of that , I'm glad to say so in a few months we're gonna have watermelon seeds on the feeder rope .
Speaker 1Oh well , I'm thinking that they were if they were seeded watermelons , I would imagine that in the springtime they're gonna be a blooming and then producing watermelons right there where you hit that sign .
Speaker 2Well , the watermelon truck was in the hempstead watermelon show .
Speaker 1This instead truck in the watermelon show in hempstead . Yes , got it , okay , so you do show these . You take it around , obviously here , great . So what ? What drew have you shown here before this first time ? First time ? Aren't you glad you got to meet us ? Yes , he's going . Oh good , god , get us out of here . Right now Is that watermelon truck , the only one that's down there in the in the display ?
Speaker 2We're in a group of about five other trucks , the vintage .
Speaker 5Chevrolet . You might showing them right now .
Speaker 1Oh , I see , so this is a vintage Chevrolet Truck group . Yes , a truck . Are you a member of that group or they just invited you in because the truck looks a good ? We are a member , their members .
Speaker 4That might be why they accepted us as a member .
Speaker 1Because of that truck , because I noticed that that seems to be a theme here in the brochure . A lot of trucks yes , of course it goes hand in hand with that , there where you live especially , and you've also got a John Deere in here , and I'll bet you that that looks like a fake , some sort of fake longhorn . You got back there behind it .
Speaker 2We do have real long horns , and that is a fake one , and we have a lot of this is easier to take pictures with because it doesn't move around .
Speaker 1Yeah , and then we have .
Speaker 2Probably five or six John Deere display tractors . Yeah , like this .
Speaker 1So there's a friend of ours that owns a place called the hemi hideout and he obviously is a big mopar fan cars like this one here that's in our display this year and John , if he feels an urge to collect something , like he has a collection of motorcycles , he also has a collection of , obviously , cars , mopars . He also has a collection of John Deere tractors .
Speaker 3Oh yeah .
Speaker 1Ah , the wheel type , he's also got the track type vehicles from .
Speaker 3John Deere Steel wheels and stuff . I mean he collects some of the real old stuff .
Speaker 2I've got a couple of the steel wheels to you , yeah pretty , pretty cool , pretty cool collection .
Speaker 1You would . You would do well to visit his location called the hemi hideout in brookshire , brookshire , texas .
Speaker 3Yeah , and so is this is this facility that you have there is . Do you use that ? You'd mentioned brides getting their pictures . Is that a wedding venue facility ? Is that one of the things you do with ?
Speaker 4it . It's across the street . We have 26 acres where this building is located , along with the venue and vacation rentals , and the brides love it , but the grooms really like it .
Speaker 1I'm sure cars . So now are you guys from Caldwell , from Brian , call the station . Brian call the station . And how far is Caldwell from Brian ?
Speaker 2call the station 20 minutes , 20 miles 20 miles , something like that .
Speaker 1It's good . And and , obviously , how long have you owned that property up there ?
Speaker 4Well , we started with the vacation rentals about six years ago , okay , then added the venue three years ago , then added this this year . So this is a brand new venture for us and we're very excited about it .
Speaker 3So do the cars Pretty much the same cars all the time . You kind of add to them , or do you sell and and resell cars that you're bringing , bringing in and out ?
Speaker 1we rotate a few Not appetizers , a dealer on just more of an individual , but I don't like to get the collector and Enthusiast because you got to be an enthusiast to collect these , oh yeah , and obviously you're schooled in in what somebody knows how to work on them , because you can't own those kind of cars Without somebody having to put their hands on them and keep them up . Great , he knows somebody , they know somebody , I assume , in the area .
Speaker 2Yes , yeah who would that be ? Just a local friend , a local friend , yeah he's not gonna give you his name , don .
Speaker 3Oh , I got that . I clearly have that there's a fan of the old school bill , so I'm an old school bill , you know and the other thing that draws my eye is the Cushman motorcycle .
Speaker 1Correct , you don't see too many Cushmans anymore .
Speaker 2Yeah , I picked that one up in Tennessee about a couple months ago .
Speaker 1Really 53 a 1953 Cushman , is it an Eagle ? Yes , look at me Cushman lucky . How do you ? It's the only model you know . How does Don Armstrong know about Cushman Eagles ? Well , it tells you how old I am , huh .
Speaker 3I didn't say it . I know you did . I get in trouble when I say that .
Speaker 1And on the back of your brochure . There's a pretty bright there standing in front of a Model A . Is that a wagon ? What is that ? What is she standing in front ?
Speaker 4It's a delivery truck A delivery truck .
Speaker 2yeah , that's a 29 hoster .
Speaker 1A 29 . Yes , yeah , very nice . And a Circle C barn . Is that where the cars are ? Is that the venue , the wedding venue ?

Speaker 4They're all a different thing , like there's a John .
Speaker 1Deere , are you the decorator ? We both , both of you we both do .
Speaker 5So do you do like wedding showers and things as well , because I'm thinking if you got a delivery van , you might want to have the expected mother in front of that delivery van .
Speaker 4We've had baby showers .
Speaker 5There you go .
Speaker 4We've had all different kinds .
Speaker 1Do you have anybody from Houston ? Go up there and rent .

Speaker 3What are we going to do with this extra hour ?
Speaker 1Well , now we've only got 15 minutes left , hey you know what I'm thinking about , that what ?
Speaker 5is it F1 ? And ready he is , he's going to be going to court over it . General Motors and Andretti are gonna take F1 to court . F1 is actually on the New York American stock exchange , so he's got an in with the legal ease . General Motors got big money and I . I think they're gonna go to court and it's gonna be fun to watch .
Speaker 3No , they're gonna let him in . They want to let him in , but they want the drama no they don't want the drama because you got total wolf .
Speaker 5who's in charge of the Mercedes side of it ?
Speaker 1He's just a knucklehead , he is , he's you know , I have a feeling that you have another word for him . Yeah , I do , I do , but you put your being .
Speaker 5And also a person named Christian Horner is also on his side too . That's the Red Bull . Yeah , so they're , they're . They're the ones they're making the stink about it .
Speaker 6Well , what ? What ?
Speaker 5it's a boy's club issue that the issue is they don't want to give them the portion another Cut of the pie , because the ten of them they get divided by .
Speaker 1so why don't they go to formula one and have them Recalculate the pot ?
Speaker 5They don't want to . Formula one doesn't want . Now , sulamon , who is the head of F1 , has no problem with it .
Speaker 1It's the independent owners of the teams that and it's the independent owners of the teams that really run F1 , because if it weren't for them .
Speaker 5If you look at some kind of , if you read some of the articles and the blogs that are out there , it is a boys club , that's all it is .
Speaker 1It's a every racing Organization is that yeah , this one's this one's to the max .
Speaker 5And you know talking to my kids cuz my kids watch formula one Jason and Laura do . They say that it's the young person sport . Now , well , it's because it's all the millennials . So you got man bun drivers and their fanny packs and all that stuff . Man bun drivers .
Speaker 1And bun driver that a new class just coined it . I like it . A man bun driver , mars . I think that you , you be the poster child for the man bun driver . Okay , a man bun driver , that's a race car driver that has a man bun . Cool .
Speaker 5He's anyway stick on the court and I'm gonna , I'm gonna love it , and they think that and ready .
Speaker 3There's a . Lewis has a man bun . They don't think .
Speaker 5And ready's got the smarts to do it To oh , that's really that I know .
Speaker 3But here .
Speaker 5I've got something here I just want to .
Formula 1 Racing and Facilities
Speaker 5Now you're talking about all these F1 managers and team owners . They only have that as their , as their backup and ready Operations is building a new facility . It's gonna house their Indy car , their formula E , their IMSA , their extreme E and the Indy and X T Along with F1 . So they're building the drag racing in this , that they're building the facility for that , and it's in Fishers . Indiana is where it's down the street from Indianapolis , basically . So , yeah , yeah . So they think that he's not smart enough to do it , but he's got all of this other Incredible a lot of money , yeah , and he's got that Electric go-kart track out there and Katie that's well , that's .
Speaker 3Under his name , but it's just a name thing ?
Speaker 5It's not . He doesn't show up in driver .
Speaker 3No , no , no , but I'm . He's making money yeah the name . I think , I think Andretti would be a good name for F1 because you know , you got to remember , mario Drove F1 back in the 80s .
Speaker 5Mario wanted twice .
Speaker 3Yeah , so no reason not to include Andretti in the in the in the F1 series .
Speaker 6Other than just .
Speaker 3I will get man buns .
Speaker 1Oh yeah , man , I will tell you this that Larry , who spent 11 days out in Las Vegas , told me , told us and told the world that F1 royally screwed the pooch when it came to the people of Las Vegas .
Speaker 3Take that total was because it was all about them stealing the money , taking the money .
Speaker 5They just gonna be another three that they said by Christmas time they should have it all cleaned up , maybe All the roads back , that's .
Speaker 1And that's a little bit too disruptive . Yep , you know , I remember not that long ago we had an Indy car race here and they held it basically in the parking lot of the Astridot Mm-hmm .
Speaker 2Yeah , yeah , we it went fine .
Speaker 1Yeah yeah . It ended Frank Kitties crash . It entered here career there because of a horrible crash of the last lap .
Speaker 3But he went up and hit the crossover bridge . Lucky nobody else got hurt .
Speaker 1I know it was really bad , but I will tell you that if they could put it in a parking lot , why , why would you do it anywhere else ?
Speaker 3Well , I went to the last Las Vegas Formula 1 race . Angie and I went in 82 when they were in Caesar's Palin , the Caesars Palace parking lot , and Work worked fine there . I don't know why they had to do it on the streets , but I guess that's , that's fine .
Speaker 2Get more spectators in your money .
Speaker 3The money , money money money , money , money , money .
Speaker 5Anyways , that's still update .
Speaker 1Well , thank you for that . Where are your boys still in bed ? They are on their way .
Speaker 2They are on the way , yeah ding , ding , ding yeah they heard the show and they saw no G and they said we got to come and they saw , saw me , yeah , yeah .
Speaker 1So there's , there's , there's that .
Speaker 2Mr Zeekin , we have a question from the audience .
Speaker 5Something . There is a contract with it , but I think , with the city council and all the powers that be , they're probably gonna try to negotiate out of that Because it was a mess . It was a very big mess . Everybody , all the hype and everything and you look at the pretty pictures and how the cars are going down the road and all that good stuff , it pops up , well , behind the story lost money , ruined a lot of properties , really made the community mad and nobody wants to go out there and it's gonna go the way of the Texas A&M kid coach .
Speaker 3They're gonna pay him a hundred million dollars .
Speaker 5I don't know if it's gonna be like that it's they'll , they'll , they'll get out of it somehow , but Jimbo it's a mess and what other places that you can enjoy the race , correct .
Speaker 1And then we've heard that time and time again and , as I explained , you know on a road course like that , you can't . What are you gonna see ? This much , you know , depending . Yeah , and you know they've got a beautiful facility here in the state of Texas circuit of the Americas and they did a great job out there with Formula One . Why not have two races out there if that's what they're looking for ? I don't understand . There's so many road courses .
Speaker 3I think the Miami race is a mess as well .
Speaker 1There are so many nice , really cool road courses across the United States , why put it on a city street and disrupt the entire ?
Speaker 5channel . To top it off after that race , their next race after Vegas is in Abu . Dhabi . It's an 8,000 mile plane trip . You gotta get gas on the way . They gotta load up all that equipment and move all that stuff over to Abu Dhabi and practice and all that good stuff . The Las Vegas practices were at two o'clock in the morning .
Speaker 3Yeah .
Speaker 5You know when they hit the manhole cover and ruin the car , you know he got fine for that . The driver got fine for that and lost points .
Speaker 3Because you hit a manhole cover .
Speaker 5Because the track was not prepared properly , but he should have avoided it . I don't know the details of that , but he got fined and yeah , he got in trouble for it .
Speaker 3They should have welded it down . That's what they do whenever the president comes in . You weld it , I'll bet you .
Speaker 5But nevertheless they lost money .
Speaker 3They're in another country now and I think the race is on tomorrow they're escaping this weekend ?
Speaker 1Yeah this weekend . Yeah , tomorrow , just sometime this weekend . Well , mr Mars , it's been a pleasure . We've seemed to have pulled off another nice it's been great .
Speaker 5I think we're gonna go to broadcast . Nice work , Michael . Great job , buddy .
Speaker 2If we had two more hours , but we don't Well we could probably stretch it if you want to . I gotta go make a pit stop and find some food too .
Speaker 1Well , I think that that's coming along , conrad , I guess we'll see you back in the sugar shack next weekend . Yes , sir .
Speaker 3No , we're gonna be on Coast Auto Shield .
