Another big shot at today's event.
That'd be you, aj.
I said big shot, but he's not wearing a monitor.
No, he's not right now.
Jeff has the cruise in calendar and the events calendar and we'll have the stories making automotive news headlines.
Howdy, along with Mike out of this world, mars.
We always need more.
Jeff Zekin.
Our chief engineer and freak show is Jeff.
It's David Ainsley.
I'm Don Armstrong.
No, I'm not, but glad you could join us at any rate.
Any rate, have we seen them walk by yet?
No no, okay, I'm looking, all right, please do mike's on patrol in the studio with us, the remote studio we have from the good grub and gears car show and fall festival, the, the man, the, the myth, the legend, the Mr Know-It-All, mr Space City Corvette Club.
And today he's not wearing those cutoff shorts like he usually does.
Ladies and gentlemen, it's AJ Liu.
Man, you are on fire this morning.
Flavor of water.
Somebody's trying to put it out and I'm trying to let them because it's Is that?
coming from those funny little drinks you all have right here on the floor.
Well, probably part of it, no Matter of fact, I'm trying to work on Jeff's half drink that he said I can't drink anymore.
Yeah, so I'll swallow this down while you're talking.
Okay, you know I came to your show last year for the first time.
That's correct, you sure did.
And when we'd had these conversations before, you said Don, you really need to come down there and check it out.
I think you'll really like it.
How many times have I heard that I'm a car guy?
We go to car shows all the time.
You go to car shows, we all go to car shows.
But I will tell you that car show really impressed me.
Well, thank you.
And you know, granted, the cars are great, I love that, but dude, the venue.
I think that's what does it, I agree.
I mean, it is probably one of the best venues ever A beautiful park that's roomy enough to put a bunch of cars underneath those beautiful oak trees down there, gazebo and I keep thinking of Mayberry, rfd and it's just a great setting and a great community.
Love Friendswood.
Everybody loves Friendswood, at any rate we're looking forward to your show.
How many shows does this make?
This will make 12th annual, which is hard to believe.
It doesn't seem like it's been that long, but time flies when you're having fun.
You've been doing it since the beginning.
Yes, sir, since the very beginning, put the first one on With the Corvette Club, with the Corvette Club, and it was kind of unique because we always did a spring car show, was always Corvettes only, and I noticed that our fall car show 12 years ago was kind of like a red-headed stepchild, it just wasn't really so.
I convinced them to let's just do an open class car show and that's when the Good Grub and Gears came about.
And we've been doing it ever since and it benefits Mr Miller with Texas EquiSearch and last year we had 253 cars when you came out there and we also raised $100,000 for Tim Miller, texas EquiSearch.
What a great.
I hope he's going to be there.
I want to meet him.
He should be there.
He's usually there in the morning times for a couple hours and then he kind of just slips away yeah.
But I will make sure that we have him out there.
Yeah, we would love to talk to him.
Oh yeah, there.
Yeah, we'd love to talk to him oh yeah, absolutely he's uh, he's a star, he's a living, living legend.
Yeah, he started, he started uh, the the search group, uh back uh after his daughter died and, um, he's been after it ever since and 40 years, yeah, and that's hard to believe.
A couple weeks ago, 40 years, uh, it was not.
I think it was last month it was.
40 was 40 years.
Yeah, which is hard to believe too well at any.
Let's talk about the cars.
Sure, sponsored by Bayway Chevrolet.
We're going to be there and thank you for inviting us to come down.
Oh, absolutely, we appreciate that.
I'm tickled to death to have you guys.
It's going to be a blast.
Y'all are going to enjoy it.
Who's Texas Splish?
Splash is a car wash detail place there on Nassau Road 1.
It's next to Mamacita's.
They have a second location, that's in Pearland, and Jim Everly, the owner, has always been a sponsor.
He's one of the Everly brothers.
Well, he's not one of the Everly brothers, everly.
Oh, everly, everly.
It depends on how many cocktails you've had.
That's exactly right.
Apparently, I need to have some of that down here, here you go.
No, I'm just kidding, I'm good I don't have any disease or anything.
No, no, I'm good, no, but uh, yeah, so he's been a long time sponsor.
Uh, let's see bayway chevrolet, excessive racing, creative custom classics, uh, tent world uh, milwaukee tools will be out there.
Um, I'm trying to think who are some of our other bigger we'll be out there y'all are going to be out there.
That's going to be the main attraction, right.
Yeah, that's what it is, that's right.
Either that or everybody's going to go.
Why did you invite them?
I know right, we could have had nice music yeah.
Yeah Well, I was talking to Mike earlier.
We're going to have a great setup.
Oh good.
You'll like it, I'll walk it with Mike Pryor.
We're going to like it or not.
No, you're going to love it.
Okay, it's going to be great.
Appreciate it.
All.
Right, let's talk about the cars.
What do you typically get down there?
Obvious, you're going to get some Corvettes.
A lot of Corvettes we are going to get, but a Corvette that day?
Yeah, I want to see the Camaros, the Mustangs, the Cadillacs, the Lincolns, the Pontiacs.
We love American-made.
Yep, absolutely we love American-made, but everybody's invited.
Then we could have something like this here at JDM.
Yeah, we have an import class.
We have 46 judge classes.
So we've got imports, we've got 46.
46 judge classes.
I hope you've got a bevy full of judges.
We do, and who are the judges?
They're local guys and some of the guys from the Friendswood Spring Car Show help, and then some of our club members help and then we have some outside long-time just car guys that are going to be there to help.
I'll never forget the first time that I was asked to judge a show.
I had no clue what I was doing.
Do you?
have classes for the judges that don't know what they're doing.
We have a judges meeting and the guys that have been doing it they've been doing it for a long time, so they know what to look for.
And it's largely in part based on cleanliness.
If you come out with two cars that are identical and one of them is dirty and the other one is not, well, guess which one is going?
in?
Yeah, exactly, you know.
It's funny because back in the day when I started doing all this stuff a long time ago, there was no real classes for a judge, right?
You knew somebody at the show that happened once a year and it all kind of lined up.
You knew what you were looking for.
There was a certain segment of cars that showed up, but when you have an open car show like this, it's all different kinds and classes and you have to have just a general knowledge of what you're looking for.
Are the gaps the same?
Are the gaps close?
What's the paint like?
What's the attention to detail?
How do the door jams look?
What's under the hood?
How does the engine presentation look?
That's true.
Are the hood springs clean?
it's stupid stuff like that that divides a good car from a not so good car right and as long as you're aware of things like that, for the most part, unless you get to some high-end pebble beach thing, then you're gonna, you're gonna make it do oh yeah, and some of these guys that are really high end, that's what they do for a living and, um, I give them credit.
I mean what a great job that would be right, but I would be scared to drive well scared to death to drive those kind of cars.
Yeah, well, there's that, yes all of those usually are trailered in.
Yep, that's true, and we do have some of those.
And listen.
I have a respect for that because at one time I had a car that I trailered and I swore I'd never do that again.
Yeah, yeah, I've got a car.
I've got a 72 Pontiac Le Mans Sport GT convertible.
It'll be out there.
Is that a trailer car?
It's not a trailer car, but it is, if that makes sense.
I don't trailer it but I drive it, but I just drive it local and I think the last time I drove it was for this car show and I didn't even take it and you don't drive it on rainy days.
No, no, sir, what an absolute nightmare it is to clean up after you've driven it on a rainy street.
It's hard to keep them clean without getting them on the road when they've been rained on, so for sure yeah, that's just a lot of work.
You thinking of something else right now?
What's that?
Are you thinking of something else right now?
Well, no, I was just thinking that you were thinking.
Yeah, which is a problem sometimes.
If y'all smell something, that's what it is.
Yeah, but if you, you can go to seccinfo and you can register your car and you can also make a cash donation and, like last year, space City Corvette Club is matching all cash donations up to $20,000.
Did he change the subject?
He changed the subject, didn't he?
And we also have it on our website.
Are you?
I think Mars is talking over here, David.
I think he's off again.
It needs to be.
I was going to say that the information you can't register on our website, but it will take you to your website.
We have information on there.
Thank you, We've done all sorts of magic for you.
Good Thank you.
It's greatly appreciated.
All goes to a good cause.
Now is it pre-registration?
Yes, sir, pre-registration, and we prefer that because the day of it helps the ladies at the registration table.
So much going on the day of.
Oh it is.
It's insane, from the time that thing gets started to the time it ends.
And I always tell people I'm not only the president, but I'm the car show director.
So when the car show's over and the awards are done and people are driving off, my job's not done.
And you volunteered to do this.
Well, it's for—.
Have you lost?
your mind.
Well, you know, you would think a long time ago.
I did, and I really kind of got into it by mistake Our former president, it's funny how that works.
Well, it really is.
He said they needed help and I'm in the general meeting and I'm like looking around and nobody's like raising their hand.
So like I was in class and I raised my hand, I'm like see me after the meeting, what do you need?
And he tells me what he needs.
So I just went down to litney.
I'm like, okay, I can take care of that.
I can do that.
I don't know.
All of that's yours yeah.
So then next thing I know they give me this appreciation plaque, and at the membership meeting I was touched by that.
So I'm like.
You know what I think these guys need some help.
so that's when I kind of jumped in, but I didn't just jump in a little bit, I jumped in head first.
And that first car show for Good Grubbing Gears, we raised $18,000 for St Jude's and we had 143 cars.
So it broke all of our previous records.
And then it's just continued to grow from there.
You did such a good job.
We're going to reward you by letting you keep doing it.
Yeah, we're going to keep letting you do it for free, so I keep letting you do it for free.
So twice nothing is still nothing, right?
Yeah.
But it's the platform I use to give back, because I think we're better served when we serve others, and I know that you appreciate the fact that you wouldn't have guys come back and want to be in the show again if you didn't do it right, exactly Because you know how it works.
Oh yeah, if it's a bad show and things don't go, you don't have to win, but just do it the right way.
Right, if you do it the right way and you don't win, I got an appreciation for that.
But if you do it, the wrong way.
it just is bad, absolutely.
So you know, I saw Tim Spell here.
Do you know Tim Spell?
I can't say that.
Tim Spell is a fabulous writer, automotive writer oh Used to be with the Texas Auto Writers Association where Mike he used to write for the Houston Post, and so every time that there was a Houston auto show he would write the insert in the Sunday paper, the whole thing, which is probably 15, 20 pages worth.
He would write the whole thing.
Very talented guy.
He lives down here and somewhere, as he has gone home to take a nap, he's wandering around here.
Great guy, you need to get to know him.
Do you need an ankle monitor?
He probably does, is there?
one for sale.
There's one behind you.
No, they're giving them out free.
Yeah, they're free monitors.
I'm bad, I'm bad.
You're good.
David's got it.
David's always got us covered.
Yeah, thank.
God for David.
Okay, so I look forward to having you guys out there next week.
Well, you say that now.
This show's not over with yet, yeah.
Have we created a little bit of doubt in your mind?
Nah, nah, come on Just a little bit.
A lot, a lot.
We created a lot of doubt.
Worst case scenario we're going to have fun.
Are there some guys down there that we know?
Hopefully some cars that we haven't seen yet.
Oh, I'm sure there's going to be some cars out there you haven't seen.
When you talked about Corvettes, we'll have the 53, which is production number 32.
It'll be there.
We'll have the first V8 Corvette.
Is it white, it's white.
They were all white, I know.
That's why I'm asking.
Yep, yes, sir, and then we'll have the first V8 Corvette, which is a it's Harvest.
Gold.
It looks like a pale yellow with the green.
You showed it down there at Galveston.
Oh yeah, there's pictures.
That's one of the pictures we put up on ours Right.
I actually got to drive that car three weeks ago to a gala and three weeks ago to a gala and I was like holding my breath, praying to God that nobody hits it.
Yes, I'm like don't even sneeze, look this way.
But when we got to the event, I know the owner real well and he doesn't mind people like taking pictures.
So all the ladies were in these you know evening gowns taking pictures with the car and it was priceless.
We had, we had two, we had a new one and the 55 and everybody went over to the 55.
Like the new one and the 55 and everybody went over to the 55, like the new one.
Yeah, you can see the new one anywhere.
Yeah, yeah, exactly so.
And then, uh, I'm, I'm hoping he's going to be there.
It's a 67 tornado.
Y'all seen the car?
Yeah, john hardman creative custom classics did the car.
It was one of george barris's oh yeah, he's been out here, he's been out here.
We had him on the air last year, he was, by the way.
I have a request, sure, so if I, if you can get my Corvette in a place that I can get out of there after the show, we can do that.
I mean like, in other words, like you could just take off whenever you want to leave.
No, no.
After this show.
After this show.
After this show.
Packed up at 7-7 instead of waiting until 5 or 6 o'clock.
When are the awards?

Yes, sir.
Can I put my?
car by us.
Sure, okay, absolutely All right, then I'll bring my car Good.
Now you've been promising that for 12 years, so I am not going to hold my breath, but if you do, I might go in the car and get the rest.

I do too, are you sure?
Yes, sir, I got those glasses that have the little mirrors.
Yeah, you got those x-ray glasses that you bought online or from Back in the comic book.
Yeah, biden administration's proposed ban on Chinese connected car technology Could prove its strongest weapon yet to fend off an onslaught of cheap Chinese electric vehicles those two that has upended the global auto industry.
The ban on hardware and software announced September 23rd by the US Commerce Department is the administration's latest salvo.
That is a laundry detergent, isn't it?
After imposing 100% tariffs on Chinese EVs and denying a $7,500 consumer EV subsidy to any vehicle with made-in-China components.
Ow, unlike those measures, the connected car tech prohibition would apply even to cars built by Chinese companies outside China, such as in Mexico or Europe, where they're planning factories.
Few Chinese-made vehicles are currently sold in the US, and none from Chinese brands.
Yet Monday's action aims to keep it that way by closing loopholes, according to US commerce officials.
Yikes, that's pretty heavy-duty stuff there.
We're talking about billions and billions of dollars.
Okay, you know the steel industry is kind of shaky right now, especially here in the United States, because of the impending sale of the big steel company up there in Pittsburgh.
Well, the US auto industry is a keen self-interest in ensuring continued supplies of steel, one of the industry's most vital raw materials and the substance at the heart of what in other times would be a relatively uncontroversial proposed acquisition of US steel by Nippon Steel.
According to the Washington Post reporting in early September, the Biden administration was preparing to block the $14.9
billion acquisition on national security grounds, despite the fact that Nippon is headquartered in Japan, one of the nation's staunchest and most important allies, and has its own long history of operating in the United States.
Nippon's proposed acquisition is opposed by the United Steelworkers.
Wisely, the Committee on Foreign Investment of the United States, which by law must review the proposed acquisition, extended its review period by another three months on September 21st meeting.
No decision will be made until after the November 5th election.
So that's the thing that's all up in the air and got a lot of people really nervous.
It impacts the automobile industry, the building trades.
I mean there's a lot of stuff that you've got to think about.
The fallout?
Yes, are we done with it?
Are we keeping you?
awake.
Are we done with the show yet?
No, not yet We've got two more hours.
Stellantis is laying off 200 workers at Sterling Heights Assembly in suburban Detroit, where it builds the Ram 1500.
The total includes all of the plant's 177 temporary workers, which Stellantis calls supplementals, and 14 full-time employees.
Stellantis says the supplemental employees were seasonal workers hired to support production by covering for increased vacation usage during the summer months.
Sure yeah, they'll be separated from the company effective October 1st, in accordance with the 2023 UAW collective bargain agreement.
According to the company, full-time worker layoffs go into effect September, the 28th.
Man.
And it just continues with Stellantis.
In August, stellantis said it would indefinitely lay off as many as 2,450 workers at the nearby Warren Truck Plant.
That's Truck Plant as it ends production of the Ram 1500 Classic pickup to focus on the Jeep Wagoneer SUV.
Let's see.
That's a mistake.
How many Wagoneer SUVs, as opposed to the classic Ram 1500, are they making?
My guess is they're making a lot more of the classics, because they use the classics as work trucks.
It's last model's model, right, not the current one, and they're making money off of it.
Why wouldn't you continue to build it?
Well, they're going to use the pickup trucks to continue making Hellcats that you sell everyone.
Well, they're going to give everybody a pickup truck so they can clean their desks out, they can load up all their stuff.
This guy's going to be fired.
Yeah, the CEO.
Yeah, I thought I read something that they were already looking for another CEO.
But the excuse is that, oh well, we do that every two years anyway.
It's a review Horse hockey.
How does that review work, tell me, yeah, that guy is out.
You kidding All the people that Sergio State there's what?
20 years or something or another?
Yeah, every two years.
My butt.
I don't want to see that.
No, every two years I'll show you.
I don't want to see that.
No, every two years even I'll show you?
No, I know you will.
And by the way, for all of us AM radio fans of which there are a few left, but still some here's a story for us.
The AM Radio for Every Vehicle Act has advanced, after a US House panel voted on September 18th to move it along, buster, move it.
The bill first reported to the US Senate in September of 23, requires the Department of Transportation to mandate that all new passenger vehicles include devices for accessing AM broadcast stations.
Vehicles are increasingly produced without first-generation radio broadcast technology, and advocates for AM radio argue it is essential for reaching people in weather emergencies.
Some also say AM radio fills a unique cultural role as a longtime home for sports broadcasts and talk shows.
Hello, I listen to AM radio all the time.
I listen to FM as well, but I listen to both.
I listen to AM radio all the time.
I listen to FM as well, but I listen to both.
So, unless you're going to put all that stuff that's on AM over on FM, I need AM.
As a matter of fact, I drove a car I'm not going to tell you what it was, I'll tell you when it's time but I drove a car that did not have AM.
I was ticked, did you?
I did.
It's on HD, it.
I was ticked, did you?
I did.
It's on HD.
It may be on HD, but can you get the HD in the car?
Not on all cars?
So there's that.
So don't go messing with what I got.
All right.
Now how are we looking?
Oh good.
I got time.
You're going to make your balloon hat here in a minute, so the Stellantis conversation now is going to continue Mars.
Yo.
Stellantis chairman, john Elkin, has started a search for a successor to CEO Carlos Tavares.
Yeah, wasn't there a boy band named Tavares back in the day?
I don't know Whose contract runs out in early 2026.
The automaker confirmed the decision in response to questions from Bloomberg News, adding that it's part of regular succession planning.
Bs Pressure on Tavares is rising due to Stellantis' poor performance in markets, including the US, its biggest single-profit pool In the US.
The Jeep and Chrysler maker is struggling with high levels of inventories, quality issues and declining market share.
Company stock has slumped more than one-third this year, ow yeah.
So with that in mind, it's time now for a quick break.
We'd love to hear from you.
Just shoot us an email.
The address is info at inwheeltimecom.
