Rental Car crisis? We have more from Christopher Elliott
With the COVID shutting things down, rental car companies had massive fleets to deal with - fleets that were sitting still and costing money. Many did the best they could in reducing the size of their fleets, which seemed like a good short term strategy. Then things started opening up, people began to move about and rental vehicles were back in demand. Problem is that when the rental agencies try to rebuild the fleet, there is a chip shortage causing a vehicle shortage! What to do now? Christopher Elliott, a Washington Post columnist and consumer advocate has been following this story and we had the opportunity to talk with him on this episode of In Wheel Time Car Talk. In our feature segment, we have this edition of 'This Week In Auto History'. ----- ----- ----- Be sure to subscribe on your favorite podcast provider for the next episode of In Wheel Time Car Talk six days a week, and check out our live broadcast every Saturday, 8a-11aCT simulcasting on YouTube, Facebook, Twi…

Wondering how to get your 'ride' across country? Ship it!
The massive growth in the use of internet access has created all sorts of ways for us to find help. In the automotive world, it is so much easier to search for hard to find parts, or maybe that dream project car, and even better, that completed dream car that we always wanted. A lot of people do search for cars, but they limit the search area to what they are willing to trailer to and from. What happens when that dream project car is across the country? Just going down the highway we can see haulers with loads of new cars, occasionally some wrecked rides headed to the big scrapyard in the sky. The first time I saw someone buy a 1966 GTO out of New Jersey on Ebay, the first question I had was how are you going to get enough time off to go get it from Texas? Seems the 'dealer' that he bought it from could make arrangements for shipping, and so about two weeks later, the transport rolled the ride off and all he had to do was get it with a trailer across town. Easy stuff, but that…

'El Camino' - the mythical magical ride from Chevrolet!
The El Camino has been the thing of myths, legends, and movies for several years. It is basically a Chevelle with at truck bed incorporated into the body lines. This not only gives it plenty of flexibility regarding use for transportation or hauling a few things, but it also sets it up for some hot rodding! Under the hood, can't tell the difference between the Chevelle and the El Camino. Running with a small block that has a lot of chrome under the hood and modifications under the intake, this ride sounds very healthy. And it goes on from there....Doug Keener with his 1969 El Camino. In our feature segment this episode, Jeff Dziekan is looking at the 2019 Nissan 370Z, a sharp sports car that has changed several times over the years. ----- ----- ----- Be sure to subscribe on your favorite podcast provider for the next episode of In Wheel Time Car Talk six days a week, and check out our live broadcast every Saturday, 8a-11aCT simulcasting on YouTube, Facebook, Twitch and InWh…

It is Stan Holt, drag racer, classic car aficionado, and host of Tailpipes & Tacos!
We can't say enough about the Saturday morning cruise in at Lupe Tortilla in Katy, Texas. The cars, the people, and the hotrod atmosphere that is really family friendly. It is just the way Stan Holt likes it, auto enthusiasts of all kinds enjoying the 'sport'. On this day, Stan drove his 1964 Pontiac Catalina 2-door hardtop out to the cruise in. Not only is this a gathering of car people, but it is also a benefit event. The event starts at 8a and there are breakfast tacos, coffee, and a variety of other beverages for attendees. There are also some t-shirts for sale. All of the proceeds from sales during the cruise in are for the benefit of Shirley's Kids, the foundation created by the Queen of Drag Racing, Ms. Shirley Muldowney, a friend of the Holt family. It was 2019 when Shirley actually attended one the Saturday morning events, with people lined up for autographs. We do hope that sometime in this post-COVID world, she is able to make the trip once again. ----- ----- …

Chase Murray is at Tailpipes & Tacos, June Edition!
Ok, we will admit it - we really like going to Tailpipes & Tacos, the Saturday morning cruise at the Lupe Tortilla location on the Grand Parkway in Katy, Texas. We do our show live there from 8a-11a and vehicles start showing up while we are setting up to get some of the prime parking places. This is a free cruise location, very family friendly and we get to watch it all develop every 3rd Saturday.

Making a rare appearance over from Orange, Texas, it is Chase Murray, part of the family that believes drag racing is really a family event. Chase started in junior dragsters and has worked his way up to running Super Comp and Top Dragster - we will let Chase tell the rest of the story, including what he drove to the cruise.

Hagerty Classic Car Insurance - Angelica Brothers makes a visit!
Car insurance is one of those boring things that we don't like to talk about as most of us prefer to talk about horsepower, suspension or other mods we are making to our rides.

Angelica Brothers, local Hagerty Insurance rep has always been great about keeping us up to date on changes in the classic car industry - new offers or changes on how to insure that classic sitting in the garage, or maybe how to insure that longer than expected build project that is way out of budget.

Painthouse is in the 'HOUSE!'
Anyone that has tried DIY projects quickly develops an appreciation for a a real craftsman. When that craftsman is an award winning craftsman, seeing what they can do can be a true sight to see.

Supercar watches the ultimate custom? Then the Car Clinic is in the feature segment with more tips.
When it comes to design, somethings are 'timeless'. A few years ago, there was an exhibit at the Houston Museum of Fine Arts that was all about Art Deco automobiles and motorcycles that were built 1920 - 1940. Very elaborate body lines and intricate details. Another area of timeless design can be found in elaborate time pieces. Pocket watches to wrist watches. What happens when automotive design meets Swiss watchmaking? Jenna Zhang, a designer in Houston, happens to be an automotive enthusiast, so for her, the idea of taking 'parts' from a super car, such as a Lamborghini and using those parts in a Swiss caliber watch seems like a good idea. We were intrigued and invited Jenna to join us on this episode of In Wheel Time Car Talk.
