Episode 81.) Not a whole lot to say about this one! This week we had the honor of meeting one of the most inspirational people we’ve EVER talked to on the pod, Ellie.
Ellie was involved in a terrible vehicle accident where she was paralyzed. But that has not slowed her down one bit! She is a champion and advocate for people who find themselves in a similar situation.
In our chat, Ellie is very candid about her experiences and honest about the fact that she didn’t always have the most positive outlook. But she is a fighter and pushed through the darkness to become a beacon of light for ALL OF US! 
After listening, you will no doubt want to find a way to support her and her fiancé. Start by liking her pages and subscribing to her Youtube.
Take care and enjoy!

For those unfamiliar with Streetcar Shenanigans, you have undoubtedly seen one of their famous builds on YouTube. They have created some of the most amazing cars to come across your social media screens, including; a magazine-worthy 454SS, an awe-inspiring Gen 1 Lightning, Project Lochness (featured on Brother Tom’s YT channel), a turbo S-10 and many many more. Go and check out their channel to see more examples.

There is a lot in this episode, we went for almost tow hours and could have gone for much much longer.

This week, we want to take the opportunity to revisit one of our favorite episodes, #17 with Scot Weeves. 
 Originally posted on 12 February 2023, Scot’s episode immediately became one of our favorites. Scot is a decorated combat veteran who was severely wounded overseas. While recovering, Scot leveraged his circumstances to gain his wife’s permission to purchase “one more” fox, to… “aid” in his recovery. 
Scot is hilarious, and his story speaks to how a car build can help one recover and move forward with their life.
This episode also has to contain the absolute best of all time “Fast 10”. 
Fast forward to the present day; Scot’s Coupe is a well-known Fox. His signature (custom mix ) blue with bronze wheels identifies this car from miles away.
We hope you guys enjoy the reposting of this episode. 

*****************************************************************
Episode 17.) We start the episode this week with John on a tear. Some internet trolls ruffled his feathers and he lets us know about it. This week’s guest of honor is Scot Weev’s, a certified American Hero! You probably know his coupe by its signature orangey brown interior and custom one-off dark blue paint. Scot discusses the traumatic circumstance that led to the building of his Notch he affectionately calls Monica, and how it was cathartic during his recovery. This episode has plenty of humor, from the origin of the name “Monica” to John impressing us with his Fast 10 and we discover that John is easily distracted by “penguin noises”. We think you are really going to enjoy this one. Sit back, relax, and tell your friends about it! Enjoy the show.
