OH WOW. First off, Kyle Tucker, The Gerber Brothers, and Miranda are some of the top builders in the nation. The Willys is a work of art. It was a top 3 finisher at battle of the builders at SEMA. Ive always been a fan of what the Roadster Shop pumps out. And that 67 Nova looks awesome. These are some great cars and a testimate to Mike Phillips that these builders trust him with these cars.

It's an absolute honor to work on these masterpieces...


We're also going to be able to showcase top notch products as the sponsors for this episode have top notch products.


  • Metro-Vac
  • Lake Country Pads
  • FLEX Power Tools
  • SONAX


Once in a while someone will ask me if I ever get nervous working on really expensive or rare cars and I say,

Of course!

But when you have best in class tool, pads and products you have the confidence to tackle anything.

Where is the fb "love" button when I want to hit it?! Talk about some sweet builds! I've been through the build gallery of 'Inferno' at least a dozen times over the last couple of years-nothing went untouched on that car!

Kind of... we'll meet as a team and sort the teams out first thing in the morning.

We'll be using all of the FLEX power tools so I'll need guys that are proficient with,

FLEX PE14 Rotary Polisher
FLEX PE8 Kompact 3 Rotary Polisher
FLEX XC 3401 Gear-driven dual action polisher aka The Beast!
FLEX XFE7 - 15mm Free Spinning Orbital Polisher aka The Finisher

So priority one will be to determine who will be using which machines.

Is that an option for vBulletin software?

Is so, we should have it.

Then it's a good thing I own all of them but the XFE7 which I've used before and have a hard time not buying to replace my 15mm BOSS... I'm glad that we will all get to use such quality machines!
