Man , we're moving and shaking still . I'll walk you guys around the shop here in a minute . But yeah , we're staying busy . We're selling car accessories , truck accessories , all kinds of goodies for your car and truck . And we're doing lots of work out back too , working on all kinds of foreign cars , old trucks . I can show you guys a neat old Ford F100 I've got out back for a customer If you want to take a look at that .

Speaker 1 2:05

I'm surprised that that's not your truck .

Speaker 4 2:09

No , it's not , but it is a new truck , and every once in a while I fancy having one , because they're dead simple to work on too , I really enjoy it .

Speaker 1 2:18

What do you drive as your daily driver ? Get Beetle convertible behind you .

Speaker 4 2:24

No , that's my permanent installation . It's like an art installation here , I guess . Yeah , no , right now I'm driving an old 98 Porsche Boxster . I picked it up a couple years ago and I really enjoy driving that little car .

Speaker 1 2:37

It's fun , yeah well , you gotta drive it gingerly because you don't want anybody to run into it .

Speaker 4 2:44

Yeah , Right , I feel like I do have an older suburban as well . That's my go to Home Depot kind of vehicle .

Speaker 1 2:53

You're a beater , yeah , you're a beater , my beater exactly that's my beater , yeah , so how are things in the where we are now in the store , anything new and exciting that you want to share with us ?

Speaker 4 3:08

Well , to be honest , I'll walk around here . Let me switch the camera so you don't have to look at me all the time . Good .

Speaker 1 3:18

We love you , John , but not that much .

Speaker 4 3:20

Yeah , there we go . Okay , there you go . Yeah , you know , you guys have seen the beetle before .

Speaker 3 3:26

I believe so . It's the little sister to your Boxster .

Speaker 4 3:30

Yeah , well , this one I've had for a really long time and my goal was to , you know , restore it and drive it around and stuff , and that still is the goal . But it's , you know , it's just taking its time .

Speaker 2 3:42

I think you were looking on the interior the last time we talked .

Speaker 4 3:48

I don't think I've worked on it much since last time we talked frankly .

Speaker 1 3:51

Yeah , but that's just I've been busy . Did you just lose interest , or are you just too darn busy in the shop ?

Speaker 4 3:58

A little of both .

Speaker 1 3:59

Mostly I'm too busy , but anyway that's the excuse you're going to go with today .

Speaker 4 4:06

Yeah , that's what . Yeah , that's the excuse today . So , yeah , we still do aftermarket seating . So if you need a sports seat or a racing heart racing seat or something in your sports car or pickup truck , we've got lots of that stuff .

Speaker 1 4:22

How much ? How much are seats going for ? Give me a price range .

Speaker 4 4:27

We carry . Corbeau is the brand primarily , that's what we're doing the most of , and you can get a set of these pretty affordable for six or $700 . A piece no for a pair . And then they go up from there . Of course they have like this one right here . Those are about $1100 for a pair after it's all said and done , so not too bad .

Speaker 1 4:54

What makes them so expensive ?

Speaker 4 4:57

The price I guess all the materials , yeah , the price .

Speaker 5 5:04

Now the racing seats like we do .

Speaker 4 5:07

You know we do racing shell type seats for people to take their cars to the track , and you know these , these can get pretty crazy expensive . This particular one here is about $1500 . Wow so you know , and they can get real expensive because they're made out of carbon fiber as opposed to fiberglass on some of the models and stuff and so that that can really up the price .

Speaker 3 5:30

So Do they ? Do they make a desk chair chassis for them , so you could get one of those seats and just strap ?

Speaker 2 5:37

it onto a desk chair . It's the same thing . It looks like one of those gamer chairs .

Speaker 4 5:41

Well , I think the gamer chairs are actually more like copies of these .

Speaker 2 5:46

Yeah that's what it looks like .

Speaker 4 5:48

I do have a . I do have a chair that I sit at my desk . That is , you know , an old racing seat that's mounted on a an office base . So we actually can do that too , if you want . You wanted to put one of these in your for when you for the in your office , or we've actually sold these to , to guys that have built their own little gaming or you know , their driving simulator deals , yeah , and so they'll put . They'll actually use these seats and stuff .

Speaker 3 6:14

So keeps them from falling out right hey , right , yeah , carry wheels we do carry some wheels .

Speaker 4 6:23

I don't do a ton of wheels anymore , but but yeah , we do , especially for track day cars that you know will mount the the racing rubber on them and stuff and we can do . We can do all kind of stuff like that . I don't do a lot of like the big truck wheels and all that kind of stuff . There's too many other shops doing that , so we don't .

Speaker 3 6:44

It's a lot of inventory to have that selection .

Speaker 4 6:47

I see that you got a selection of helmets there as well yeah , yes , yes , we've always carried . We've always kind of been the go-to place here in Houston for racing gear . So we have , if you're you know if you're gonna be going to the track , whether it's just a one-time deal or if you're gonna really get into the sport . We've got everything you need see helmets , shoes , gloves suits yeah , there's dawn shoes .

Speaker 3 7:10

Yeah , we're pointing out the shoes on red shoes , red pumps yeah , they don't have a heel on them the head and neck restraints and all that sort of fun stuff we need that with red pumps .

Speaker 2 7:22

That's right head and neck restraints first we do .

Speaker 4 7:25

We do suspension work , break work . We do kind of breaks . Do you carry John ?

Speaker 1 7:31

what kind of breaks do you carry ?

Speaker 4 7:35

willwood primarily if you're gonna do an upgrade . Yeah , we're a willwood dealer , but I can also get Brembo . I've also . We've also been a long time Brembo dealer . But don't do a ton of those just because they're really pretty pricey , but they are excellent systems , right , yeah ? So let's see what I'm gonna walk around back here .

Speaker 4 7:57

So you talk about gifts for Christmas , some of the easiest stocking stuff or type stuff we've got . We've got license plate frames that have your make on them , lots of these . And then we have a lot of the park air products . People drive from all over to come get some of our park air products because we're the only place that carry some of this stuff . So , like the Classe , which is a German product , we carry the ZEP line of cleaners and and tire shine and stuff that stuff is . I can barely keep this stuff in stock . This tireless shine . Most people say it's one of the very best tire dressings that you can use . It doesn't wash off , it stays on , it stays your tire stay looking good for a really long time so it doesn't sling up onto your quarter panel .

Speaker 3 8:48

I was thinking the same thing no , it doesn't do that either .

Speaker 4 8:50

Because it's an aerosol spray on , it's really easy to modulate and not overdo it . You know , when you , when you use the stuff that's a squirt pump or a , or like a , a wipe on type deal , that stuff is what fling really flings off .

Speaker 3 9:05

So and let's see , we've also do you sell gift cards for people who want to get their cars serviced ?

Speaker 4 9:14

sure ? Yes , yeah , we do , we do that as well . So whatever you need , come on in , we've got . You know good amsoil , red line synthetic oils , octane boosters , polydine , tx7 , which you know this is a local company . I don't know if you guys had them on your show before . No , they're an excellent shop . They also do . They do the ceramic coating of like pistons and headers and all of that , that stuff too . I haven't said a headers on my race car that they coated with that sera coat stuff . It's like a . They use it for . They they also do like guns and stuff where they coat , coat the mechanisms and stuff . Oh wow , so polydine , it's been around a long time . It's a . Like I said , it's a . It's a local company here in Houston and they're they're great people .

Speaker 3 10:09

So let's see and where are you guys located at ?

Speaker 4 10:15

oh well , I should tell you that we are at 61 , 25 Richmond . That's in the Galleria area . It's between uh Hillcroft and Fountainview on Richmond , at the corner of Greenridge and Richmond . You've only been there a hundred years yeah , we've only been here since like 1983 or four so I remember going out there when I was with Keystone to talk to you that's right . Yep , I remember that was . That was a long few years ago , yeah so so , john , the little oil , check things yes oil .

Speaker 5 10:50

I cannot think of the name of the car guy .

Speaker 2 10:52

He knows that yeah no , it's the little dipster .

Speaker 5 10:56

I got those for my grandkids . I got them so when they when they started driving , I got them all . I got one granddaughter . She still got in her hood of her car because it's magnetic . Yep , she still don't know what it's for she doesn't know it's .

Speaker 3 11:11

It's a little wiping device so you could wipe the oil off your .

Speaker 5 11:14

It's got a magnetic base , and so you can put it under the hood of your car and it's always there to check your oil got you and it's really nice yeah , it'd be , even neater if she knew how to use it .

Speaker 3 11:25

Yeah , grandpa she's got grandpa for exactly the other thing we're taking on , but that's it's small .

Speaker 5 11:32

You know , john's got one right there .

Speaker 4 11:33

It's small and uh , yeah , if you don't can , if you're , if you're someplace in Dallas or someplace and you can't get to John's shop , you can get this on amazon you're a real dipster , yeah yeah we sell this and we sell a lot of the other products on , on on amazon as well , so you can actually go to amazon and look up my amazon store it's just called pro am auto and on amazon and there you go , shop to your heart's delight .

Speaker 1 12:01

Yeah , I love that little thing , I'm delighted just talking to you and get this personal tour of the store .

Speaker 4 12:07

Yeah right here . Let me go out back and show you that forward real quick I want to .

Speaker 1 12:13

I want to see the uh , what you got cooking out in the shop . Do you give shop tours now ?

Speaker 4 12:18

and then sure I . Every every week , people come in want to see what we're doing

Shelby's Chrysler and Holiday Gift Ideas

Speaker 4 12:24

. So this is still my my other personal project . This is our endurance track car that we started LS swapping a couple of years ago , and it's still sitting here too .

Speaker 5 12:38

Work in progress .

Speaker 4 12:39

Work in progress . Don't look at any of my mess , sorry .

Speaker 2 12:42

You could enter that in the limits .

Speaker 4 12:43

You need to put an .

Speaker 3 12:44

LS in that Volkswagen .

Speaker 4 12:49

So this is a 73 . Wow , can you all see it ?

Speaker 1 12:55

Yep , it's a green .

Speaker 4 12:57

Yeah , it's a pretty truck . I've done a lot of work too . We put air conditioning in it . It's a 390 big block , so it's a lot of fun . It's here now for a . Well , I'm not even gonna bother trying to open the hood .

Speaker 1 13:10

What kind of gas spot does that thing get ? John Doesn't .

Speaker 4 13:15

I don't , yeah , I don't think it does . It has two gas tanks . You know most of these four have two tanks , so I think he uses them both all the time .

Speaker 3 13:22

I bet it does great burnouts though .

Speaker 4 13:25

Yeah , I think it does one single wheel burnout pretty good .

Speaker 1 13:28

That'll be okay . A single wheel burnout , why not ? Yeah ?

Speaker 4 13:32

What do you call it ?

Speaker 1 13:33

Don's High School Days Driving Moms Buick , buick , skylark yeah , son , I don't know why the rubber's gone off of that right rear tire , but it looks like we're gonna have to buy a new one . Yeah , dad , I don't understand it either . The rubber's there .

Thank you , john . Merry Christmas to you everyone .

Speaker 5 14:52

It's always fun to see his stuff . Yeah , I know it truly is All right .

Speaker 1 14:56

We'd love to hear from you . Shoot us an email or address here as info at inwheeltimecom . Time now for Conrad's car clinic . All right , what's in the car clinic today ?

Speaker 3 15:05

Well , it's a continuation of what we did a little bit last week is the life of Shelby . Yes , you know . So you know , shelby not only did the Cobras and the and the Ford GT and all the Shelby Mustangs and all of that . Well , you got to remember . Leigh Iacocca at one point moved in that , I think it was in the 70s . He's going to be in auto history as well . He moved to Chrysler . Well , he brought Shelby to Chrysler with him and that's right , he shall be built .

Speaker 3 15:34

There were some Shelby Chrysler he built a whole series of Chrysler based Shelby products but they're not the . You know , to me the Ford based Shelby products can be investment grade vehicles . You know you could buy one of those . It'd be a good investment . The Chrysler ones aren't . A lot of these are probably still selling in the 10 to $15,000 range . First one was the 86 Shelby Omni GLHS . It was a modified Dodge Omni and the changes made by the Shelby where they retitled them as Shelby automobiles and sold them direct through Dodge dealerships and GLH stood for goes like hell . And then the S stood goes like hell , some more . Everybody was thought . Everybody was thought it stood for Shelby . You know , just stood for some more . They made about 500 of them and they all had dash plaques with a serial number and stuff . The upgrade to them was the turbo four cylinder they added . They added a factory intercooler and increase the output to 175 horsepower .

Speaker 1 16:41

And that's pretty good for that little tiny car yeah .

Speaker 3 16:44

And 175 foot pounds of torque for that little car was quite a bit and that little card kind of get up and go .

Speaker 3 16:50

That's a front wheel drive car , a little front wheel drive car , and then they took that same engine and put it in the Dodge Shelby charger later and that you know , in the today's era of massive four door chargers with Hellcats and stuff , it may be a little easier to remember this Dodge Charger . There's a couple of pictures of it . You know it wasn't really a popular car , but with the Shelby package on it I think it was probably a decent driving car . And by then it's still that same little 2.2 liter turbo had a pretty decent suspension upgrades , special wheels and a lot of exterior trim upgrades to it as well . Did you ever see ?

Speaker 1 17:33

those anymore .

Speaker 3 17:33

No , no , no , well might be for a reason , you know , they weren't what I would consider a real high quality car .

Speaker 1 17:40

Well no , but you know , you would think that somebody would have saved one or two of them back and put it on the show circuit because they're so rare .

Speaker 3 17:47

And that's what I think is you know again that Shelby investment grade vehicle . I think these may be on the edge of becoming investment grade vehicle . So if you could find one , you might get a good buy on one .

Speaker 5 18:01

That would be the key If you could find one , because they're kind of because the Shelby name's gonna add value to it .

Speaker 3 18:07

And then Shelby also built in 83 a Ram pickup truck . He only built a prototype of it , never sold them retail . But you know , and this is back in the day when they were building the SS-454 and the Ford lightnings and stuff and Shelby kind of jumped in the game , kind of proposed a full-size truck to dodge and they didn't go for the full-size truck . What they did end up going to was the Dakota and Shelby built quite a few of these Dakota trucks . Again , that was in the day that the GMC Cyclone , the SS-454 and the lightening super trucks were out there . I don't remember that . Oh yeah , I kind of remember these . They were more of a dress up truck than they were , you know , a real high performance truck .

Speaker 3 19:00

But they were out there and they caught your attention mainly because they had the name Shelby on the side .

Speaker 5 19:05

With that and the striping package in the way they like , say , dressed them up . That's ugly .

Speaker 3 19:10

And then after this they did the CSX with the variable nozzle turbo . Now , the variable nozzle turbo was unique in the industry back then , very common today on the diesels , but the VNTs and this one actually put out 205 foot pounds of torque and again a unique car . They didn't build very many of them Again , they only built about 500 of these . But again , talking about the Shelby valuations , I think finding one of those might be something worthwhile because of the low production numbers . And then the final one was the Shelby Lancer and that was a bigger car than the CNX or CSX and again with the Shelby branding , upgraded suspension , wheels and tires and exterior looks on it it was more of a visual car than it was a high performance car the .

Speaker 3 20:04

Lancer . Isn't that a Mitsubishi ? No well , at this point it was . You gotta remember Dodge and Mitsubishi shared a lot of platforms together . So yeah , this was called the Shelby Lancer and again , that was the 2.2 liter turbo with the intercooler and the upgraded torque output and stuff . So if you're interested in owning a Shelby , you might be able to find a value one in one of those Chrysler products .

Speaker 2 20:28

You could almost see the relationship of the Mustang body styling in some of those as well because of Iacocca In the upgrades . Yeah , the square body Mustang . And then you got the Mazda front end , Monza front end .

Speaker 3 20:40

Mm-hmm , yeah , and then next week we're gonna talk about Shelby did some GM products as well .

Speaker 1 20:46

I did not know that Interesting .

Speaker 3 20:48

Really Ground update GM products . Yeah , we'll talk about that . Wow , from a car company I loved , still do . You go , you go , you go , go , go Call the wrecker . I'll wait here with the car .

Speaker 1 21:02

You know this is really a misnomer because I'm sure it's all over the news this week . Test the recalling two million vehicles for auto pilot safety flaw as well . There's no , you don't take the car to the dealership . It's not one of those kind of recall . They're not recalling it to the dealership .

Speaker 3 21:22

I think they need to replace the loose nut behind the wheel .

Speaker 1 21:25

They this is an over the air update is what they're going to do to try to fix the issues that have been plaguing this Tesla autopilot thing ? They filed a recall covering more than two million vehicles after the top US auto safety regulator determined its driver assistance system autopilot , as it's called , doesn't do enough to prevent misuse . The move is the result of a years long defect investigation by the national highway traffic safety administration . The recall is the second this year involving Tesla's automated driving systems , which had come under escalating scrutiny after hundreds of crashes , some of which result in fatalities . Autopilot comes standard on every new Tesla . It uses cameras to match vehicle speed with surrounding traffic and assist drivers with steering within clearly marked lanes .

Speaker 3 22:18

And you've used the supercruise and experienced that , and you talked about this clearly marked lanes thing can be a bit of an issue when the area you're driving through transitions into unclearly marked lanes . And then what does the car do ?

Speaker 1 22:33

It loses itself . And with this thing here they're noted not fatalities , but crashes where the Tesla crashes into emergency responder vehicles that are parked in the lanes ahead of it , doesn't know what to do . That's where the driver comes in .

Speaker 3 22:51

Well , and there's , you know and we've talked with one of the guys we've had on for an interview , talked about there has to be some kind of a feedback system in the car that says the driver is paying attention , whether it's a camera that's watching the eyes of the driver or the feel of the steering wheel .

Speaker 1 23:08

I understand that the Tesla's do have that aspect of it , but when it comes to what's ahead of the vehicle , it's not looking far enough .

Speaker 5 23:17

Well , and I think it's interesting if you read what you said it's to it's not doing enough to prevent misuse of the system . It's not saying the system doesn't work . They're saying it's misused , like they keep finding people sitting in the passenger seat that should be sitting in the driver's reading the newspaper , or absolutely asleep , because you can see people take pictures of those people and post them on the internet .

Speaker 3 23:39

And the guy's sitting here and he's passed out asleep and the car is auto driving for him .

Speaker 1 23:43

I have a friend of mine that has a Tesla and he says I never use that thing ever . And personally I like driving . That's my own take on it . I would if the car has it .

Speaker 3 23:56

I never use it . Did you use the super cruise ? Just experience ?

Speaker 1 24:00

Yes , I did and it was very strange because I like driving a car and to sit behind the wheel and have the . It was on the hardy toll road at the time and to see the thing , you know , at that time this was five years ago when he first came out it would bounce between the lines . They've smoothed that out , the last one that I had pretty much . Yeah , they smooth that out , so it doesn't quite do as badly as it did back when it .

Speaker 5 24:29

Yeah , Some of them would start going back and forth .

Speaker 2 24:31

So I mean it would almost get lane , it would almost throw itself off over the line because it couldn't react once it got going you could put a note in the passenger seat , send the car on its way to the grocery store with money and a note and come back oh at the pickup place .

Speaker 5 24:44

Just tell them , you know , to the , to the , to the , to the , to the , to the to the out , put it in the back space for go ahead and put my groceries

Recalls, Layoffs, and Auto News

Speaker 5 24:51

in .

Speaker 1 24:51

There are other recalls to tell you about turn signal , the high beam malfunction . I think I mentioned this last weekend . Ram all of the pickup trucks from 23 and 24 , they get a malfunction there . They recall in that loose brake pedal for the Ford Mustang for 2024 . Ford F 150 lightning 22 to 23 . Deactivated electronic stability control for F 150 for 2022 . Parking lights may flicker . Mercedes Benz GLE 450 E for 24 breaking may require increased force . Okay , stomp on the brakes May the force be with you .

Speaker 1 25:28

Rear spoiler may obstruct the center brake light . Boy , there's one that I'm going to take my car back for in Porsches , okay , uh , incorrectly adjusted headlights on the infinity QX 60 , which is an expensive car . Who messed that up ? I don't know . You're fired . See you the guy who puts them in Apparently . Yeah , so incorrectly adjusted . And for you , conrad . General Motors is laying off 1300 and 14 people at two manufacturing plants in Michigan on the heels of reaching a new labor contract with the UAW . We talked about this . The automaker says it will offer impacted employees jobs elsewhere within the company .

Speaker 3 26:07

Battery , battery plan , as you can say . Do you want to move out of Michigan to someplace else ?

Speaker 1 26:11

that GM spokeswoman Tara Coonan said the automaker informed employees at the subsystems plant about the layoffs in October resulting from the end of the end of the Chevy Bolt EV and the EUV production . The plant's undergoing major retooling for electric truck production . Blah , blah , blah .

Speaker 3 26:32

So you can save $29 million a year with one other layoff .

Speaker 2 26:37

Well , the Corvette plant in Bowling Green . They've stopped giving tours and delivering cars because of the tooling and the new process that they're going through .

Speaker 3 26:47

Well , but that's not uncommon . I went through that when um , when they transitioned from the C five to the C six , they shut all plant toys down because they didn't want people to go on a plant tour because you could see some of the stuff running through production .

Speaker 2 27:02

Yeah .

Speaker 3 27:02

Secret .
