Ever daily drive a car from 1928? Cash does. And his golden retriever rides in the rumble seat.

Doug and Christian sit down with Cash and Chris from McPherson College's automotive restoration program, and what starts as a conversation about classic car education becomes something much deeper. There's a reason Cash bought his 1928 Model A sport coupe right after high school and made it his everyday driver. There's a reason everyone fights over who gets to sit in the rumble seat on 500-mile road trips. And there's definitely a reason Chris has seen hundreds of incredible cars but still stops dead in his tracks when he sees a Duesenberg.

Want to know what "car camp" really means? Curious why the rumble seat is actually the best seat in a Model A? Wondering what it's like to restore vintage cars while learning the craft at one of America's most prestigious automotive restoration schools?

This episode takes you inside McPherson College's renowned restoration program through the eyes of a student and instructor who live and breathe vintage car culture every single day. Cash and Chris share what makes McPherson's summer restoration institute special, why students travel from across the country to attend, and what it really takes to become a restoration expert.
