Car Guy Confessions

With Jeff Smith, Steve Strope, and Cam Benty Presented by ARP Special guest Will Hanzel and Jeff Smith recall their wild roadster road trip from California to Iowa and Detroit…in a 1931 Ford Roadster hot rod, the Budget Beater. Of course the hot rod got dialed in with Currie and TCI suspension, but that didn’t help climbing mountain grades in the middle of summer or navigating gas stations on the open road. To see more of their roadster road trip journey, checkout Jeff’s Hot Rod article. www.motortrend.com/features/budget-beater-31-ford-model-a-project-car-road-trip Recorded at the Petersen Auto Museum in Los Angeles @petersenautomuseum and www.petersen.org.
