As classic car enthusiasts, we know that sometimes things don’t go the way we wish. Parts wear out and break, new parts sometimes don’t work right out of the box, and things that were once fixed can change with usage. Although frustrating, it’s just part of the joys of old car ownership. On this episode, Mike and Kevin chat about how to handle things when they don’t go smoothly. There’s also the usual trivia questions and goofy stories from our two “regular guy” hosts.

On this episode of V8 Radio, Mike Clarke and Kevin Oeste go back in time as Mike made the mistake of asking Kevin how he got started in this business. It started back in 1996 when Kevin and his buddy Paul Wieshuber embarked on the Hot Rod Power Tour in a car worthy of a junkyard, and it all went downhill from there. Who’d have thought he would have landed a job with Hot Rod and eventually start V8TV and the V8 Speed and Resto Shop? They also chat about the 1964 Ford Galaxie 500 XL 427 R-Code featured on Muscle Car Of The Week, ratchet up the trivia questions, and have a few laughs on this episode.
