You should totally go for it! Try to find one in AZ/CA/NM/TX, as those tend to be the least rusty. Rust isn’t a huge issue with these cars, but the areas that do rust tend to be very expensive to repair (jack points, trunk lid, and the bottoms of the doors). If you can find one that needs engine work, like timing…

Both your cars and your bike were awesome at Radwood! Read more

Honestly, no. You would find it to be a welcome relief after working on the 300 ZX, no exaggeration there. The M62tu engine is a big and relatively simple 4.4L V8, with the only real flaw being the timing chain guides, oil leaks, and cooling system.

These are some of my favorite posts on the site. You make me want to get started on a project. Bravo sir! Read more

As always, nice write-up. Glad you kept the car mostly stock looking, especially the wheels. I don’t want to jinx it, but hopefully that’s the last repair for a while. Read more

Huh. Apparently in the 80's, you had to push a button to ignite your Ferrari. Thank goodness that new technology automated the process!

Sooo wish I could’ve gone! Maybe next year. I’m in St. Louis, we can caravan.

This came back home from my son Otto’s first-grade class. It was a Thanksgiving assignment, where he had to write what he was thankful for. Read more

God I wish I had people in my life like your brother. In a big way, he was an enabler for the whole thing. You needed that second crazy person to take the plunge. Read more

Others have voiced the same thing, but this show needs to expand to the midwest! Yes there are parts of the breadbasket that are stuck in the 90's anyway, and good vehicles from that era seem to be quickly returning to the earth. Still, that era is where a HUGE (and growing) portion of the current car nut demographic… Read more

Right on Peter! Just curious, but did you keep track of what the award-winning vehicles were? Read more

Because CBR900RR and Dodge Ram. Read more

Man, I’d have been worried with that trailer in Albuquerque, too (and I live there, lol). Read more

Great to meet you, Peter. Thanks again for coming out and giving us this great story! You’re an inspiration. Read more

Thank you for the write up. I was wondering how the trip went, especially if the RAM would make it without an issue. Well Done Sir! Read more

the outfits really were the icing on the cake. I’ve loved ALL the radwood coverage I’ve seen. with the right instagram filter, this could really be photos taken in the 90s Read more
