Classic Cars, Vintage Tales, and Ford's Latest Recalls on In Wheel Time!

Ever found yourself debating the beauty—or lack thereof—of a classic car's wheels, or being charmed by the vibrant maroon of a 1967 Buick Riviera restomod? You're not alone! We kick off this episode with a spirited discussion about Ford's latest vehicle recalls and sales figures, all while indulging in some playful wardrobe banter. From there, we shift gears to the world of classic cars, diving into Hemmings' latest sales, where intriguing price points of a 1964 Chevrolet Impala and a 1982 Toyota FJ40 spark some heated, but lighthearted, debate. And let's not forget our shared admiration for that maroon Buick Riviera—it's a delightful journey through the lanes of car culture, sprinkled with humor and camaraderie.
As we cruise through the episode, nostalgia takes the wheel with our personal car tales. There's something about vintage Buicks that just hits the spot, right? We share stories of family traditions, the pursuit of low-mileage Corvettes, and the quirks of owning classics like the Chevy Astro and GMC Safari vans, including a laugh-out-loud tale of a date gone wrong thanks to vehicle choice. Plus, we give you the lowdown on exciting upcoming events like the Gulf Coast Auto Shield Car Social and throw in a cautionary tale about ethical conduct in the car industry. Dive in for an engaging ride full of laughter, stories, and insights that celebrate our shared passion for everything automotive.

Speaker 2Oh , that's going to be so cute . At least I didn't paint my nails and wear sandals .
Speaker 1be so cute at least I didn't paint my nails and wear sandals like I did .
Speaker 2No , no like the person we saw wearing sandals and purple painted toenails .
Speaker 1Yes , grown man . There was that ? Yeah , I was .
Speaker 2I don't don't go there I'm not , I , I'm not .
Speaker 1You're right , I'm not , I'm just moving on . Okay , I always look forward to this . Oh , I've got to get a scorecard . Okay , make one , I'll make one . Yeah , so this is Hemmingscom Soul Cars Roundup .
Speaker 2I've got to sneeze there , you go .
Speaker 3Pardon me , I was going to say you blow your brains out . Well , I know .
Speaker 1But I hold it back . So play along at home , get your scorecard . I don't like the wheels on this car but I do like the car . Got a disclaimer up front Disclaimer 1964 Chevrolet Impala he's a Bala and he's a shot . Kala . Okay , driving his Impala . He's a Bala and he's a shot Kala . Driving his Impala . 1964 Chevy Impala two-door hardtop . Okay , all right , it's red in color with a white top and it's got a red and white interior . I would say that this is a driver . I wouldn't say it's a show car . I'm sure that the owner would probably say something different , but I'm telling you right now it's got some ugly wheels on it that I would immediately change , but it sold last week from Hemmingscom , okay , and it looks clean , straight . It's got all of the chrome accessories on it that it needs to have . What do you think , michael ?
Speaker 3The 75 Impala 64 .
Speaker 2Impala .
Speaker 1You know , there's something about paying attention , that just doesn't make it to the end of the table .
Speaker 3I'm trying to cheat to get some of our audience over here to help . What are you cheating with ? Well , I'm trying to see if George or somebody got an idea how much that would cost , but I can't type fast enough with my fingers , uh-huh .
Speaker 1Well , it's a 64 . Chevy Impala , it's not a 77? .
Speaker 3Ugly wheel .
Speaker 1Two-door hardtop okay . Red with a white top and a red and white interior how much would you think ?
Speaker 2that that's sold for I'm saying $21,000 . I'd give you more , but it's got ugly wheels oh , no , well , I'm gonna go .
Speaker 128 well , both of you are wrong .
Speaker 2It's sold for 33 000 oh , you're closer , I'll give you that . Would it be nice today ? I don't know if I'd pay 33 000 for it or 21 I'd pay 21 for it would you ?
Speaker 1yeah , but different way . You know , when you buy something like this , all I can think of is the amount of trouble that you are buying wrapped in a 1964 cherolet .
Speaker 1Impala . What are you going to do ? I thought that this was cool . You know , Toyota made an FJ . Yes , Remember the FJ . I really liked it . Matter of fact , Leslie owned one at one time . It was built on a modified 4Runner chassis . But prior to this , many years ago 1982 to be specific Toyota built an FJ40 . And it looked like kind of a Jeep Wrangler . Okay , it's an 82 . I'm going to show you a picture of it . Okay , there it is the yellow thing there under the left thumb see yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah yeah okay , you don't see too many of them around .
Speaker 1no , uh , probably a rust issue , I would imagine 1982 . Uh , what do you think something like that would sell for in the United States today on the used car market ? Now is , this is not a show car . Okay , this is a driver .
Speaker 2Is it right-hand drive or left-hand drive ?
Speaker 1It looks like it's a left-hand drive 82 . I mean they built stuff for the American market then .
Speaker 3Yeah .
Speaker 1Unlike the 60s where you could get right hand drives . I'm gonna go 16 I'm gonna go 32 6601 dollars . You guys missing it .
Speaker 3Really bad today no , but I mean , I've seen some of those selling , and maybe not for that much money , but they didn't sell for six thousand dollars six thousand six hundred dollars , geez .
Speaker 1Now I think that there's been some modifications to this .
Speaker 2A 1967 buick riviera oh yeah , boat tail no 67 newer so there it is , there's , oh , that's , yeah , it's got , that's a restomod there it's a restomod ?
Speaker 1I think so too yeah looks like a restomod . It's got a real pretty maroon paint job on it . Obviously it's a two-door wheels and again some real ugly wheels on it 41 how much ?
Speaker 241 ?
Speaker 1I'm thinking 22 , well bars you're close , but no cigar , it's sold for $14,700 . Really , yeah , I don't know why , because it looks pretty cool except for the wheels . There you go . Take a look at that Horse hockey . Now let's bump it up a few years and let's talk about a 1985 Buick Riviera . It lost the whole Riviera thing To me in 1985 , the whole Riviera thing was gone because of the styling . This one had that opera roof on it , that quick back roof . I'll show it to you . There it is upper right-hand corner . It's that plain Jane-looking Riviera thing .
Speaker 3Yeah , it's getting more like a lot of the Buicks it had hints of the Cadillac in that year too .
Speaker 1Yeah , because the Cadillac had the chopbacks . Yeah , that Eldorado thing , yeah , and it might have been the same thing .
Classic Cars and Price Guessing
Speaker 185 Buick Riviera what do you think that sold 12 .
Speaker 37 .
Speaker 1$9,350 .
Speaker 2We kind of split the difference on that one . But you notice , you did the Invista . I own a Buick . He's already talked about two Buicks . I think we're winning them over on the Buick . I think we are .
Speaker 1Well , my dad was a big Buick man .
Speaker 2His dad was a Buick man .
Speaker 1There you go . Here's one for Bobby at Hot Rod Tour of Texas . I think he's got one that's similar to this . This is a 57 Ford F-150 . I don't know what year . His is Bobby Sparkman .
Speaker 3I think it's Jeremy's the yellow one , yeah , the yellow one , the . Jeremy's yeah .
Speaker 1Oh , that's right , Bobby's got the police car , yeah , and .
Speaker 3I think he just bought something else , el Camino , I think .
Speaker 1He the police car , yeah , yeah , and I think he just bought something else El Camino , I think he did . I think I saw that . Yeah , 57 Ford .
Speaker 2F-150 . Black on black . I'm going to let you do that for a minute and it looks nice .
Speaker 1I don't think it's a show car , I think it's a driver . What do you think something like that would sell for ?
Speaker 3You .
Speaker 1They're aftermarket , bettina . No no , no , it's been painted .
Speaker 3Yeah , so somebody's done some work on it . I would punch it up around 18 .
Speaker 2I'll go back to 32 .
Speaker 1This one's 17 , 850 . And you said 18 ? Yeah , Morris said 18 . I'll give it to you .
Speaker 2There you go .
Speaker 1They're popular , but if they're driving it , man , I'll tell you , you know I love my corvette . I do , but you know , because I have it doesn't mean that it just sits there and does nothing until I drive it , because there's work that has to be done to it all the time , right , and the next big expense is to get that stupid harmonic balancer replaced before it walks itself off of the crank shaft and they're known to do that . Yeah , and I don't want to be on the hot rod tour when that thing decides that it's time to let go .
Speaker 3Yeah .
Speaker 1And it's going to be at least $1,000 .
Speaker 3I would think at least .
Speaker 1Well , they have to take the rack off the front of the steering , rack off of it , right , right . But if you've got the right tools and you do , it Got the lift .
Speaker 3You've got a lift . You're in a shop . You're doing it out in your driveway .
Speaker 1Yeah , no , it ain't happening out there , but yeah , from what I can tell , most places with the part and the labor it's $1,000 .
Speaker 3I'm not doing it . No , I wouldn't either . And not to get Chitek too far . You know , I've been looking , I keep hoping one of these days to be able to buy an older Corvette and you find one like yours . You can't get in and out of it , Mars , I can , but you can't . But to find one like yours that's got low miles , that somebody else's own , you don't know anything about it . Well then you start thinking about hoses , harmonic balancers . You know , this is a 25 , 28 year old car , depending on what year you get , and if it's only got 30,000 miles on it , then I mean there's a lot of things that can just basically dry rock .
Speaker 4Pretty much .
Speaker 3And so that's kind of where I've been kind of struggling , which I can't afford one yet , but I'm looking and I'm kind of like dang it gum , do you want to go that far back ? But I want to be able to drive it .
Speaker 2Maybe I don't like the new ones . You should go in the opposite direction , start collecting the parts and then find the car . Oh God , Neaterville , Neaterville , that's right .
Speaker 1Hey , you boys got any Corvette ? What hey Corvette parts over here ? What's a Corvette ? The ? Year is a 1991 Chevrolet Astro van .
Speaker 2I drove one from Houston to Florida on vacation years and years ago . It was a cool cool experience .
Speaker 1You know who used to have one . They just sold it recently . Bill and Sharon Seitz . Oh really yeah , mr Corvette . Bill and Sharon Seitz . Oh really yeah , mr Corvette . Mr Bill Seitz .
Speaker 2I didn't know that they had a Chevy Astro van .
Speaker 1When he told me he sold it I thought you've got to be kidding , I would imagine he had it in good shape .
Speaker 2I would imagine it would be in pristine shape . Well , I don't know , it's old . Well , still seriously , I had an Ast but still seriously took the family out there .
Speaker 3It was a great , great trip . And then , once I got rid of that , I got a GMC Safari van which was just the GMC version of it .
Speaker 2Yeah .
Speaker 3Drove both of them . Yeah , I like that . I can see that I can see you driving the wheels off of it ?
Speaker 1Yeah , you probably drove it all the way to the cord shows , through the steel bells and then some .
Speaker 3So the GMC , it was in between wives , I'll put it that way and somebody set me up with a lawyer , a female lawyer , for a date and I went to pick her up in that thing . Oh my , that was the end of that . Yeah , I was going to say she said no , not no , I'm not going to go with you in one of those conversions .
Speaker 2In one of those shagging wagons . There you go Her expectations , you nasty man . Her expectations were different than yours .
Speaker 1No , they weren't the expectations , because there was no expectation , not with Mars . He probably had , you know , things in the back of it like Shovel .
Speaker 3Wheelbarrow Robe Duct tape .
Speaker 1No no .
Speaker 3It was a conversion van . It had the bed and the check van . And the carpet on the walls .
Speaker 1Oh my God , Don't get me started Custom paint .
Speaker 3Oh man , it was cool .
Speaker 1Well , how much do you think ? A 91 Astro ?
Speaker 3is Priceless .
Speaker 1These days Nine grand . It looks like it's a conversion .
Speaker 2Nine grand , nine grand , nine grand Mars , I would go more like six . How about $11,550 ? Oh , I'm taking that one . I got one .
Speaker 1Here's one for you that I guess I've kind of heard about this , but I'm not too sure A 2015 Backdraft Racing Cobra Backdraft what the hell ? Backdraft , I guess , was the name of the company that built the body . I guess I don't know it's one of those kit cars .
Speaker 3Oh , okay , yeah , yeah , like a Cobra kit car . Uh-huh Okay okay , I assume . Well , I'm thinking Mustangs and .
Speaker 1No Backdraft Racing Cobra .
Speaker 2Doesn't that have to do with the motor Configuring Backdraft for the carburetors ?
Speaker 1I don't know .
Speaker 3I think there was a fire movie or something about bag draft .
Speaker 1Yeah , yeah , there , it is All right . So how much do ?
Speaker 3you think ?
Speaker 141 . 41? .
Speaker 3I would say 36 .
Speaker 1$63,000 .
Speaker 3Must be really nice , I guess .
Speaker 1They interest me . But why would you want to have a go-kart with a V8 engine in it ? Well , you have one . No , no , not like that .
Speaker 2Not an open-top Cobra . Well , you talked about getting in and out of it .
Speaker 1It's a race car for the street Right right .
Speaker 2But when I went with him to Jackie's he had to push me out of the car .
Speaker 3I couldn't get in . So that one though . But that's not a street car though , is it ? Yeah , yeah .
Speaker 1Street car .
Speaker 3That one .
Speaker 1Yeah , yeah , street legal Okay .
Speaker 2I don't think Hemmings would sell something . They'd have to have some kind of disclaimer . I don't know .
Speaker 3I mean they have a disclaimer that it's straight legal . Heisman said 15,000 on the van .
Speaker 2How'd you do at home ? Anybody get it at home . What did he say ?
Speaker 3Heisman said 15,000 on the Astrovan . Well , he was close . Yeah , closer than .
Speaker 1I was . You know why ? Well , he was over Because he probably has one , I don't know . No , I take that back . Well , at least the one that I saw him driving was not an Astro van . It was white and was down by the river . It wasn't a van . No , I don't know what , it was a Kia or something Cool

Speaker 3You know what an EV car show sounds like . Yeah , I do , let's what it says All right , you know what an EV car show sounds like ? Yeah , I do . Let's hear it .
Speaker 2There it is , mike made it funny .
Speaker 1Federal Trade Commission and the Maryland Attorney General's Office have sued Lindsay Automotive Group and some of its leadership individually , accusing the Washington DC area group of failing to honor advertised prices and deceptive finance and insurance behavior . The two agencies wrote in a late December US Eastern District of Maryland complaint . The group overcharged consumers by millions of dollars with misleading online prices , false claims of additional charges if customers failed to finance through the group and F&I products snuck into deals or misrepresented as mandatory . Guess what ? You're going to jail . You're going to jail . You're going to jail you can't do that .
Speaker 3No , you can't , but I'm kind of curious how they figured all that out , yeah , after the fact .
Speaker 1Well , I got a feeling that the feds are going to be owning that dealership here before too long .
Speaker 2Somebody didn't like what something was going on and I'm going to squeal .
Speaker 3I didn't get my cut Tesla .
Speaker 1Cybertruck exploded in flames . It was , you know , trump International Hotel , but it wasn't the truck . It was the guy that put all of the explosives in the back Explosives meaning camp fuel gasoline and then he killed himself about the same time that it blew up . That is a bizarre thing , and I have to tell you that I think that both of those incidences the one in new orleans and then this thing here were just coincidence and they're not not related I like some of the reporting on the las vegas , though , where it said that he was a green beret , very qualified , knows how to do all that stuff .
Speaker 3So he killed himself first and then he set off the bomb okay , I have no comment .
Speaker 2This I don't know yeah .
Speaker 1Yeah , it's a very strange thing . A tesla reported record global vehicle deliveries in the fourth quarter thanks to cut rate financing deals and other perks , but the automaker came up short for full year 2024 , marking its first ever annual sales decline amid stiffening electric vehicle competition . Not because the cars are bad . Fourth quarter sales rose 2.3% to 495,570 . That's just in the quarter . That's a half a million vehicles in the last quarter , but the full year tally of 1.79 million ooh was 1.1% short of a record high 1.81 million vehicles in 2023 . So everybody now is making an EV , so they've got competition . Remember , when they started there wasn't any competition and they'll sell them forever and ever they're doing . Started there wasn't any competition and they'll sell them forever and ever . They're doing just fine . Thank you for asking . You bet here we go again with Carvana .
Speaker 1Hindenburg Research . Don't read too much into that , but Hindenburg Research , a short-selling firm known for exposing financial irregularities in automotive startups Nikola and Lordstown Motors , took a short position on used vehicle retailer Carvana and called the company's accounting and underwriting practices into question in an extensive report published January 2nd . Carvana shares fell 3.1% to $197 in afternoon trading . In its report , hindenburg , a forensic financial research firm , alleged Carvana made $800 million in loan sales to a suspected undisclosed related party and that accounting manipulation and lax underwriting have fueled temporary reported income growth of the company . Hindenburg analyzes equity credit and derivatives and finds what it alleges are corporate wrongdoing and places bets against the companies . It was founded in 2017 by Nathan Anderson . Hello .
Speaker 2Yeah , another one .
Speaker 1Let's see . I have to look at the clock here . Okay , mazda Motor wrapping up a banner year in an overall sluggish auto market for them , and its US sales chief expects the momentum to extend into 2025 , even without a fully electric vehicle in its lineup . Buoyed by demand for its gas-powered crossovers , japanese company is on track to deliver more than 420,000 vehicles in the US in 2024 . A 16% rise , according to the president of Mazda North America , breaking a record set in 1986 . It aims to sell 450,000 vehicles in 2025 .
Speaker 1And poor Stellantis ? The troubles continue . They agreed to pay $4.2 million to resolve a California investigation into excess emissions . The California Air Resources Board , carb million to resolve a california investigation into excess emissions . The california air resources board , carb , said on december 23rd . The vehicles covered by the settlement for violation of air quality regulations include 2014 through 2016 ram promaster 1500 , 2500 and 35500 vehicles equipped with the 3.0 liter diesel engine . The state said the vehicles had an unapproved device that circumvented emissions control and resulted in nearly 55 tons of excess oxides of nitrogen being released into the air . Stellantis , in 2022 , paid $5.6 million to California for similar allegations involving gasoline-powered vehicles .
Speaker 2Volkswagen went through an EPA thing like that years ago .
