LIVE
Welcome to another In-Wheel Time Podcast.
From the Fabuloso Hemi Hideout in Brookshire, Texas, USA,
it's the In-Wheel Time Car Talk Show.
Just ahead, the Hovis Mopar collection that you have not seen all of them,
and we're about to show them to you.
Jeff has the crews in on events, calendars,
and I'll bring you the stories of making automotive news headlines this week.
Howdy along with Mike, out of this world, Mars.
We always need more Jeff Ziegen sometimes.
Our Chief Engineer, David Ainslie, has decided to join us today.
Usually he's sleeping in at this hour of the day.
I'm Don Armstrong, glad you could join us.
It's been a whirlwind of chaos here at the In-Wheel Time Show booth.
We're going to blame it on the weather.
We set up to do...
It was raining.
We set up to do video pictures that we can show you right now.
What do you want to do?
Well, we start with one.
How's that?
Let's see if I can pull that puppy up.
Are you ready?
So, John, you know, started this...
John's a...
He was 18 years of age in 1970,
so he's got a special place in his heart for 70 model cars.
Okay?
So, our first car today that we're going to discuss
is the 1970 Dodge Super B in the collection.
Is it in here today?
I don't know if it is or not.
I see a yellow car over there, but it may or may not be yet.
Anyway...
It's back there.
It's called Banana Yellow exterior with a black interior.
This has a 440 6-pack, 440 cubic inch V8,
three two-barrel carburetors,
and the N96, not mask, but hood scoop.
I just thought I'd throw that out there.
Torque flight, automatic transmission.
Power steering and AC.
Power front disc brakes.
And here's the real clincher on this car.
It's a numbers matching one of only 599 built.
That's pretty cool.
Numbers matching one of 599.
So, congratulations John.
I know that he put a lot of thought in his collection
when he was buying all of these back in the day.
Before this place was built,
he had the collection in a barn here on the property.
Well, this has taken place of the barn,
although I understand that the barn is still in use
because not all the cars are inside the hideout
to make room for people, tables, chairs, and that sort of stuff.
Okay, next up on the list is the 1970 Plymouth Superbird.
Now, this one kind of changed the landscape of mass car
because it's got that big, weird nose on the front of it
and that great big sticks way above the roof line,
rear spoiler on it, along with plenty of power and everything.
If you see this car in person, you go,
man, that's really weird looking, but boy, I'll tell you what.
It certainly got the attention of NASCAR
because it won all of the races that it was in.
It was truly amazing and then they banned it.
Yeah, they banned it.
They tried to make some changes to accommodate it,
but it didn't happen.
It was kind of like the very first car
that really worked on the aerodynamics of the cars
and that really changed the landscape of NASCAR.
The cars didn't look like that after they banned the car clearly,
but they started working about windshield rake,
the nose going into the wind at 200 miles an hour.
It changed the landscape and let's not forget
the rear deck lid spoiler on the thing.
And you know that thing is adjustable?
Yeah, it can also sit on it.
It holds the weight of a human.
Well, some humans.
It holds the weight of a very small blonde in the bikini.
I've seen that, but I haven't seen anybody like Dawn
set up there.
It's not mother-in-law.
It must be in that bikini.
You just didn't recognize me at the time.
It must be a younger you.
It's not mother-in-law proof.
So here's the here's the specs on this.
440 cubic inch V8, 390 horsepower,
three two-barrel carburetors, torque flight automatic transmission,
power steering, power front disc brakes,
numbers matching, John's the second owner.
One of only 277, 440 six-pack Superbirds.
There were a total of 1,840 Superbirds made.
One for every dealership in America.
Wow.
That's how they did it.
That was the NASCAR rule at the time.
Well, it was a NASCAR rule that you had to build 500.
And they decided that we're going to give one to every dealership.
Well, I thought NASCAR told them they had to.
500.
There's always 500 cars.
Back in the day, that was the deal for any kind of car.
You had to build 500 of them.
That's why the old saying about race on Sunday sell on Monday.
True.
There you go.
Yep.
All right.
Next up is the 1971 Plymouth Cuda.
Now, this is John's favorite car.
He's told me that.
I don't know whether it still is, but I would imagine it would be.
If you've ever heard this car run, you go, yeah, I kind of get it.
It's painted sublime.
Get it?
Sublime.
Sublime pearl green exterior with a black interior.
And here's the real kicker.
528 cubic inch all aluminum Hemi V8 with 739 horsepower.
One four barrel carburetor underneath the shaker hood scoop.
And a five speed manual transmission with the pistol grip shifter.
I have a picture of Kathy and I standing in front of this car from years ago.
Probably from, you know, that was the first car that we took to.
Audorama.
Audorama.
Yep.
Yeah.
It's right over here.
I still have the picture on the wall.
Okay.
I think I stand in front of it.
We're all dressed to the nines.
And they got all the looks.
Yep.
Oh, we did.
Oh, I'm sorry.
They were looking at the car to get to me.
Narrowed four link rear end power R and P steering and AC power four wheel disc brakes.
Pro Street RMS altercation front end with coil over shocks and 22 inch wide rear tires.
It's tubbed.
It's.
Yeah.
That's the car that's tubbed in here.
Doesn't have an L.S. has got a hammy.
It's got a hammy.
Nothing got a hammy in it, Mike.
Got an aluminum hammy.
And by the way, if I didn't tell you already, hey, thanks for joining us today on the In-Wheel
Time Car Talk Show.
We're coming to you today from inside the Hemi Hideout Open House.
Ten bucks gets you in.
No children under 12.
Come on out.
The money that you spend per person goes to charitable causes because it's doubled
Front power disc brakes, all steel, custom built street rod, Mustang two front suspension.
Plymouth was the last company to build pickups and the first to stop building pickups.
Yeah.
Look at the airbag sensor on the front.
The bumper?
Yeah.
I don't think that's what that is.
Can I point something out with this?
Yeah.
The folks that are watching this on the broadcast, look at all the background behind these vehicles.
Look at the walls with all the neon and all the pictures and all the memorabilia.
That's the real show there as well.
It is.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Because once John had the collection put in place, then he goes, you know, I sure do
like those signs.
Yeah.
He started filling up the Hemi hideout of signs, which you'll be able to see throughout the
broadcast today.
Okay.
Next up, the 1969 Dodge Coronet RT.
Right there.
Right next door to us.
Yeah.
It's right there over to the left.
And I'll have to apologize to John because I keep drooling on it.
Is that what those stains are?
Yeah.
Sorry.
So white exterior with a black bumblebee stripe and a black interior, 528 cubic inch
Hemi V8, 650 horsepower, three two barrel carburetors.
Have you ever tried to tune a multi carbureted car?
I've never driven one.
It is a real pain.
I can tell you that.
You got to have an actually an airflow meter that you stick on top of the carburetor to
see what kind of air it's pulling in.
And that's only the air side of it.
Then you got to fiddle with it to get the gasoline side.
Yeah.
Three two barrel carburetors, liftoff, fiberglass hood, torque flight, automatic transmission,
power steering, power four wheel disc brakes.
Originally a 440 four barrel, one of only 99 built RMS altercation front end with coil
over shocks.
Only 99.
And it by the way, I failed to mention it's a convertible too.
Yeah.
That is one bad of the bone car.
And this is one other and it was the same thing.
They took a 440 cornet and put a hemi in it, but it was a convertible red.
I mean, it's it was what they call a resto mod today.
Yeah.
Yeah.
See, that's what you need on it.
Plus it's a rag top.
I mean, not necessarily a rag top, but you need something like that.
There are plenty cars in the collection in here.
And the one that I want is the one that's next to it.
All right.
But we'll get to that.
All right.
Let me let me just check and see where we are here on the time.
Yeah.
We're doing fine.
All right.
Next up is the 1970 Dodge Challenger RT.
Hubba, hubba.
Pink Panther exterior.
See, that's one I would have thought Don would win after.
Yeah.
Bubble gum.
Barbie.
Yeah.
You know, I just don't have the matching pumps for that one, but I'll find them somewhere.
Red, red, red.
Black interior, 500 cubic inch, all aluminum V8, 690 horsepower.
Wow.
Yeah.
Three two barrel carburetors.
John is really into that.
Three two barrel.
Yeah.
What they call the six pack.
Yeah.
Shaker hood scoop, four speed manual transmission, pistol grip shifter, power steering and AC,
power front disc brakes, one of only five pink stripe challengers.
Originally a 446 pack custom RMS altercation front suspension.
Wow.
He's like me.
I like those rest of mods.
Yeah.
I do too.
Don't get me wrong.
I appreciate numbers matching original cars.
I got that.
But I, I'm drawn to the rest of them.
Well, sometimes you can't have all that and you need, you want to, you want the vehicle,
but you don't, you don't, you didn't find the car with all the numbers matching, so you
got to adapt.
Yeah.
But I want to drive it.
Yeah.
A driver's car to me, a matching, like if that was a matching car, I wouldn't, I'd be
hard pressed to drive it very much on the street just because, you know, the value of
it, some little old lady run a red light or something and T bonnet.
That happens all the time.
Well, I know it.
That's the reason I wouldn't, but a rest of my, it's not quite, Jackie Hanson's Nova
eggs.
There's a good example.
Yeah.
Beautiful car.
Left a car show.
Somebody ran into it.
Yeah.
Popped the whole front end of it.
It was bad.
Okay.
Up next.
Hmm.
The 1966 Plymouth Belvedere.
Oh yeah.
Bright red exterior, black interior, 426 cubic inch, Hemi V8 425 horsepower, dual four
barrel carburetors, dual four barrels.
Oh my God.
Four speed manual transmission, 10,000 mile unrestored car, numbers matching, two owner
original, one of only 284 built.
Now that's a rare car.
That's a rare car.
Yeah.
10,000 miles of unrestored, there it is.
Two.
Two.
Four barrels.
Okay.
What a man.
You couldn't fit the third one in there?
I guess not.
Look at it.
You know, got the wedge in there, I guess.
Oh my.
Anyway, coming up next, we have the Plymouth 1937 Plymouth Coupe.
That's right.
There it is.
9 color chameleon color shifting exterior with a gray interior.
This one has a supercharged Hemi V8 turning out 800 horsepower through a 671 blower.
Four and dual four barrel carburetors.
Torque flight automatic transmission, ratchet shifter, I don't even know how you would drive
that.
That'd be a first car for a college student.
Oh yeah.
For about five minutes until we put it into a tree.
Down the road.
Ratchet shifter, power, RMP steering and AC and power front disc brakes, custom built
pro street, Mustang two front suspension, narrowed rear with coil overs.
Narrowed rear meaning it's got tubbed.
It's tubbed.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Got some big need under there.
That's yep.
Wagu.
Up next, I love this thing, a 1947 Dodge power wagon.
It could be an in wheel time machine.
It could be.
This thing is so fine.
I can't even begin to tell you.
And to open and close the door, you go, oh my God, it's a Norge refrigerator.
I mean, it is.
It is solid, man.
Yeah.
Green and black exterior with black interior.
And this is another part that I really like about it.
230 cubic inch flathead six cylinder, 94 horsepower.
Yeah.
Four speed manual transmission.
My guess is it probably has that granny four wheel drive fully restored two time national
power wagon.
Best in show winner scored 996 points out of a thousand.
That truck is truly an amazing thing.
And it's beautiful.
Go down the feed store and put some grain in there.
Don't put anything.
Don't touch it.
Don't touch it.
And if you're going to ride in it, put some of the spandex pants on because I don't want
you scratching the interior.
Oh, again, again.
Okay.
Up next, we've got the 1970 Plymouth Roadrunner now the convertible in violet.
Is it violet?
Can you tell?
Kind of doesn't look like a pink one is next to it.
All right.
Well, I don't know.
These in order.
Whatever.
It's good.
Exterior with a white interior, 440 cubic inch V8, 390 horsepower, three two barrel carburetors
again air grabber hood.
Yeah, it's got that.
Torque flight, automatic transmission, power steering, power front disc brakes, numbers
matching one of 34 convertibles made with this engine combo and only two of those were
in this color combination, stolen and then recovered after 25 years underwater on a river
bottom.
No way.
Wow.
Because you know, that's a story.
You know, yeah.
Because you know what that would look like once you pulled it out of there after 25 years.
Swiss cheese.
Yeah.
I don't know.
Oh, come on.
Fresh water.
Yeah.
But if it doesn't have the air and if it gets a good covering of silt on it, I really don't
think if you look at some of them, they pulled out when they find these bodies and stuff.
You know what happens when you die?
You don't live anymore.
Not yet.
Yeah.
Well, you're probably just kind of melt away into nothing and that's what that would
be.
I'm going to be stuffed.
Stuffed.
Yeah.
I'm going to be stuffed.
Yeah.
John's got a place right over there in the corner.
Behind the steering wheel.
All right.
So, last car for this segment because we're going to carry it over to the top of the next
hour when John can join us.
This is a 1970 Super B, Go Mango exterior with black bumblebee stripe with black interior.
426 cubic inch Hemi V8.
You notice he doesn't give any miles per gallon on this.
425.
His smile.
425 horsepower.
Dual four barrels, carburetors, N96 Ram air hood, torque flight automatic transmission,
power steering, power front disc brakes, numbers matching original.
Get this.
One of only 32 engine color combos made.
Wow.
Only four known to still exist in the Chrysler registry.
And this one is one of them.
That's it.
Wow.
Isn't that cool?
Yeah.
Okay.
All right.
So, I've got more and we're going to get to those after a break.
No, we're not.
We're going to pause the run through on these.
Okay.
What number is this one?
The one that's coming up, the one that's coming up will be car number 12.
Okay.
So, we're going to get out of this for now.
We're going to get out of this for now because we need to take a quick break here and we're
going to, some of the stuff we've got to get done, including the cruise in and events
calendars and the headlines.
Okay.

We've got a Mustang event going on next week.
Again, Snakes and Stangs, all Ford cars.
Snakes and Stangs.
You got to say that with a little bit of a draw, don't you?
I think David could do that.
David got a Snakes and Stangs.
That's it.
Have you seen David Snakes and Stangs?
Anyways, that's from 5-9, Tailgate Party at the Hallmark University.

Mike sent me this one, 21st Annual Corvettes and Crawfish.
Mike, you want to take that one?
That's AJ Lupo, the Corvette Club down.
Loop, loop, loop, loop.
Not Lupo.
It's the Loop.
It's my neighbor.
It's Loop.
Loop.
Yeah.
And this is benefiting Texas Equisarch.
They would do this twice a year.
This spring happens to be their crawfish event.
What day is this?
This is on next Saturday, the 12th.
Yeah, it's coming up pretty quick.
So it's only seven days out.
So be sure to check it out.
And it's a great, it's a good event.
It has lots of fun.
We went down there recently.
Good.
And it's a Space City Corvette Club on Facebook and on the Internet and you can find out more
information there.
Okay.
All right.
Time to go.
I want to get some of the news stories in it.
Obviously, the one that the elephant in the room, so to speak.
Oh, as a Mopar elephant, there you go, I got the elephant in the room.
Well, President Donald Trump has imposed a 25% tariff on imported vehicles.
In all likelihood, consumers will not see a 25% hike.
That's because of complex factors, including the amount of non-US content in each vehicle.
Automaker calculus, dealer decision making and loan agreements.
Cox Automotive, for example, predicts a 2.8% year over year increase in wholesale vehicle
prices in 2025.
Black Book presents projects a 5% increase in the average transaction price this year.
Morgan Stanley predicts the tariffs will boost the average price of a vehicle by 11 or 12%.
So don't panic.
Be calm.
Hang on, man.
Be happy.
Don't worry.
The projections recognize that the tariff is not applied to the manufacturers suggested
retail price and that the industry lies in sometimes labyrinth systems to calculate the
vehicle's cost.
The price of the vehicle is determined using a cocktail of market research, bills of materials,
financial agreements, institution and other elements.
Even more variability enters the picture in the dealership lot where prices vary widely
by region, timing, personal relationships and the way buyers settle up with the retailer
a separate business from the automaker.
Are you following all of this?
We talked about this with our guest last week.
Yeah, yeah.
It sounds like a bunch of lawyers sitting around.
So automakers export vehicles from the foreign facilities and calculate the transaction value
of the import.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection defines the transaction value as, quote, the price
actually paid or payable for the merchandise when sold for exportation to the United States,
end quote.
Plus, packing costs, commission, royalties or license fees or resale proceeds that go
to the seller, importers have to explain the declared transaction value to the government.
Even if an actual sale does not take place, as in the case of foreign automakers with
domestic subsidiaries, companies follow rules from the Treasury to calculate the transaction
value of goods going across the border.
The rules rely on a principle that transactions be valued as if two unrelated entities were
involved.
For vehicles imported from outside of Canada and Mexico, the automakers who are the importers
will be paying the government 25% of the total transaction value for imports from Canada and
Mexico, which are captured by the United States, Mexico, Canada agreement.
I know you've heard about that.
Automakers will be given the opportunity to certify their U.S. content and systems will
be implemented such as that 25% tariff.
It will only apply to the value of their non-U.S. content, according to Trump's March
26th executive offer.
Like I said last week, it's not just 25%.
You can't do it that way.
That's why I said to you about these guesses as to how much the price of a car is going
to go up, 2.8%, 5%, 11% or 12%, not the 25%.
Because cars aren't made like they used to be in our era.
All of this stuff wasn't produced here in the United States.
Even cars that are actually assembled here in the United States, they get glass.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's really just assemblies.
That's correct.
Actually there's only one, the Toyota Corolla, which I'm driving out there, is built in
Mississippi and the panels, the body panels, are actually stamped at that assembly facility.
That's the only one that I know of.
Because usually the assembly, the body panels are stamped somewhere else, then they get sent
to the assembly.
A different kind of factory to do all that.
It's a bizarre labyrinth of stuff that you just, you never know really what's going on.
I've got more of this to tell you about.
Automotive News put that together and I thought that kind of really tries to explain it because
it's difficult to understand.
Well, the good news is Jeff's got a camera going on the Himi hideout, so they got something
to look at while we talk about all this nastiness, nastiness, yes.
We just wanted to give him a shot.
You don't have that isolated camera that's focused in on you?
No, we didn't bring it.
We didn't bring it.
You forgot it?
Yeah.
I left it at David's house.
David's house, where he's using it for other things.
There is that.
God.
Let me write down what time it is so we'll know what the FCC says.
Well, this is not the FAA.
That's true.
All right.
I've got lots of papers here.
Have you noticed that?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I've really been.
Every week you get more and more.
Recycling or what?
Well, no, I wanted to do the Himi hideout cars and it was very stressful.
I started working on this last Monday because not all of the cars show up on the Himi hideout
website.
So Shelley had to come out here and take some pictures of the cars that are not in
here today, but they're in the barn and the other barn.
Oh, yeah.
It's been a process.
I'm telling you.
Well, you did good.
Well, you do.
Yeah.
The show's not over yet.
It was very interesting.
Yeah.
Don't miss it out.
I like it.
Well, I've already done that.

About this episode
Dive into the vibrant world of Mopar muscle cars as the crew showcases the Hovis Mopar collection from the Hemi Hideout in Texas. Highlights include detailed discussions on iconic models like the 1970 Dodge Super B, Plymouth Superbird, and Cuda, each with unique specs and fascinating backstories. The hosts share personal anecdotes and insights into the significance of these classic cars in automotive history, particularly their impact on NASCAR. With a mix of humor and passion, this episode captures the essence of Mopar culture and the thrill of classic car collecting.
Neon glows, steel shines, and the floor hums with V8 heartbeat as we step inside the Hemi Hideout for a guided tour through one of the most captivating Mopar collections in Texas. We move car by car, blending hard facts with honest reactions—why an aero-wild Superbird reshaped NASCAR, how a numbers-matching Super Bee earns reverence, and where a properly built restomod Cuda proves that drivability and drama can live under the same Shaker hood.
We share the stories that make these machines feel alive. A violet 1970 Road Runner convertible exits a riverbed after 25 years and returns as a numbers-matching gem. A 1947 Dodge Power Wagon scores 996 out of 1000 and closes its doors with refrigerator solidity. A 1969 Coronet R/T convertible gets a 528 Hemi and triple carbs, while a Pink Panther Challenger and a chameleon ’37 Plymouth coupe show how attitude and engineering come together in Pro Street form. Production numbers, engine codes, and rare color combos turn into small epiphanies—one Go Mango Super Bee is one of only 32 with its configuration, and just four exist in the registry today.
Between spark and story, we widen the lens to community and the market. Charity open houses turn $10 tickets into doubled donations. Cruise nights, coffee meets, and holiday toy drives invite everyone to pull up and talk cars. And when talk shifts to tariffs, we unpack why a 25% headline rarely becomes a 25% price hike, explaining how transaction values, content rules, and dealer variability shape what buyers actually pay. It’s a full-spectrum ride: history, hardware, community, and clarity.
Love muscle car history, NASCAR lore, and the art of a great restomod? Tap play, then tell us your pick from the Hemi Hideout lineup. If this tour revs your engine, follow the show, share with a friend, and drop a review so more enthusiasts can find the ride.
