The guys were busy this week with beautification and maintenance projects. Chris reports on the rocker panel trim installation on his Chrysler along with the run-ability issues he's having with the Holley 600 on the big B engine which may keep him from driving the car in a local parade. Ray tackles axle seal replacement on his GTO and finds that the wheel studs that have been troubling him from day 1 are still a source of major frustration.

This week the boys pull of another MotorMouth Radio Mother's Day Extravaganza. Highlighted are memorable calls that came in while doing live shows this past year, and the guys also pay homage to their own mom's & wives. Stories about how mom took a wooden spoon to
an unruly son, backyards that resembled junkyards and studio guests who brought in some mouth
watering food round out an hour of found memories from a truly challenging year.

Chris is besieged and beguiled by phone calls trying to sell him an extended car warranty and the only way Ray can calm him down is to bring on Mike from Eppy's Tools for an interview. Tool trends, organization strategies, LiOn battery tech & LED lighting are only some of the topics covered on this weeks show.

The boys start off by covering the passing of Monte Hellman, who was involved in the making of Ray's favorite car movie, "Two Lane Blacktop", then the talk turns to repair and restoration topics. Chris ponders how to best mount rocker panel molding on his big Chrysler and gets plenty of caller suggestions. Ray talks about the 64 Caddy project and the need to decipher the brake problems the project Mustang is encountering. Just another week on MotorMouth Radio!

On this fire themed show, Chris explains how the use of a heat gun in auto restoration can lead to none other than...FIRE! Ray relates how one can get fired up to install a Cadillac dashboard which leads to having smoke come from ones ears. Factory car alarms causing no-start conditions make us look at burned relay contacts, then our resident FDNY friend Tory DiBlasi calls in to talk about his new Hot Rod rear end service that can provide rebuild components or a complete third member for your car.

In a rare twist of fate Chris finds himself giving unsolicited auto advice which leads to talk of buying and selling Corvettes. A listener no-start condition on a Toyota mirrors a problem Ray has in one of his fleet cars, which takes us to Chassis John's Firebird re-creation. We wrap it up with talk about Chris' shrinking door panel coverings and an un-obtanium Caddy neutral safety switch that Ray finds a work around for on a shop project.

Chris reveals his latest Chrysler conundrum, Ray talks about young kids seeking out old music, and relays his carburetor agitator story. Grumpy old car guys and an impromptu product quiz occupy Chris before the discussion turns to when to restore a car as opposed to keeping it as a common driver.

Chris conveys a harrowing experience he had at the car dealership this week, while Ray comes up with a Cadillac trivia quiz only Chris could answer. Ray's spark plug change update and a caller's '69 Camaro leaf spring upgrade wrap the first half of the show. Carl Anthony from Automoblog.net calls and talks about car auction prices, help articles on their website and delves into some of the details about those articles, all on this weeks show.

Chris confirms that he's fixed the radiator leak in his Chrysler 300, and Ray talks about the horrors of working with rusty old bolts. The positive difference a spark plug change and other simple maintenance can have on your car is also covered. A caller talks about Pinto & Maverick troubles & modifications, then the boys share a terrific interview with Marty Schulte from EclipseSunshades.net.

Ray & Chris spend the hour talking with Luke Tucker from www.EZRED.com about all the great products his company develops and sells. Luke starts right off by telling us what the name EZ-RED means while laying out the rich family history of the company. The talk soon turns to their vast array of LEDs, with the popular neck lights being highlighted. Our resident tool expert Matcoman Brian calls in to convey his thoughts from the tool truck.
