Ray recounts the details of a recent southern road trip and Chris gives us the "caught red-handed" story about a rodent infestation in one of the family cars.  Freeport Raceway trivia is talked about, and a caller has a problem with his power windows and door locks,  Chris reads his latest recall letter from Ford.

Ray relays the Maxda sunroof repair that even he can't fully believe.  Guest Carl Anthony from www.automoblog.net dives deep into Ray's story about driving an old Chevy cross country on its 38th anniversary, then schools us all on the Gartner Hype Cycle.  Callers discuss Grand Funk Railroad trivia with the crew, and Chris questions the practicality of EV car use moving forward.

Chris kicks us off with a story of clogged drains, to which Ray counters with his worst cabin air filter encounter. Show friend Mike Mooney gets some air time this week talking about the Griffith automobile and Ray warns that one can never take anything for granted when working on an older car. A caller talks about fixing broken parts on the fly, raising some MacGyver stories, and we close with Chris' tale of three questionable recalls.

Ray recounts the Rolls Royce pre-purchase inspection he did this week, then Chris tells a story about how a local tire shop raked him over the coals for a simple service. Using a new USB soldering iron and charging old battery types gets discussed, as well as the Matco tools Ray bought and put right to good use.

The boys propose a thought that everyone should get in the Spring spirit and dust off and complete an old car project. Ray takes it in another direction and suggests that hanging out with good friends is the real gift of Spring, while Chris battles with changing clips that hold parts in place. Weird noises that you can't identify come into play, as does a small spring that has a mind of its own in Ray's garage.

Ray recounts a haunting issue with a Jeep where the radio dies when the lights are turned on. Carl Anthony from Automoblog.net is back and Ray gives him the full-on Grunge talk-up. Chris poses the question asking when you know it's time to keep or sell a collector car. A caller asks about the whereabouts of the Art Cars from Steve Hooper's collection, and the origins of STP treatment are questioned.
